The art of ‘Reviving the Withered Tree’, was actually a basic skill utilizing a magical plant of vitality.
This plant was similar to algae and moss, it fed on vitality and had rapid growth. It could cover the surface of any location in a short span of time.
Those who do would not find it difficult, while those who did not would find anything difficult.
After understanding the basics of the trick, Fang Ning realized how ridiculous it was that he was shocked over this. The magic seemed formidable, but it was just another form of trickery.
It was easy to be surprised by many things if one did not see enough of the world.
No wonder Gu Buwei was able to explain the key to this skill was the stock seed of this mystery plant. Only the stock seed would have the ability to repopulate, its subsequent generation was unable to do so.
In this case, the true magic weapon here was the stock seed.
Without it, any effort would be fruitless even if one understood the basics.
“It’s all pointless. Here I was thinking about turning Morality City into a green city. More than a hundred thousand square kilometers of barren land would take years to turn green,” Fang Ning was dejected.
“It’s not pointless... It can be utilized as long as anyone is stupid enough to do bad deeds. Mr. Millionaire-Host, please do not jump to conclusions,” Sir interrupted suddenly.
“Um, you are really something, Sir.” Fang Ning understood what Sir was referring to.
He suddenly felt sorry for those future Powerhouses.
They were supposed to be able to do whatever they desired with ordinary people serving them as they pleased.
However, with the appearance of Sir, these Powerhouses had to live like ordinary people. They had to be very careful with how they handled themselves, and be constantly on guard against this System who always had their wealth in mind...
If a Powerhouse did not have this awareness and continued to abuse his or her power, then the Dragonic Penitentiary was the only place for them to go. Many sinners would be waiting for them in there.
Fang Ning was starting to understand why Sir would never kill these people. They were being kept for the purpose of further empowerment.
He could imagine if Sir was to face life and death, the Dragonic Penitentiary would be immediately emptied for Sir to empower himself.
Sir had no ounce of empathy, but he did give Fang Ning special treatment. Fang Ning was, after all, his homeowner.
This was a system that had covered all its bases. It would make the most of all resources available to him... As long as it made its mind up about something, it will go to the extreme to get it done.
Fang Ning felt apprehensive upon thinking about this and decided to forgo his plans of gaming. He walked into the Alchemy Lab to continue practicing his alchemy skills...
Only by building a strong foundation would Fang Ning be able to be on par for future negotiations.
...
An hour or so had passed and the tallest peak had been covered with greenery, a stark difference to the surrounding barren grey mountain ranges.
“My dear husband, your skills have improved tremendously again. This makes you very close to Big Brother’s realm, right?” said Qi Hui upon seeing it.
“Hoho, that would be impossible. I won’t be able to catch up to him in this life because he no longer belongs to the realm of humans. He is now considered to be among the gods.” Shang Ruoyu shook his head as he smiled bitterly.
These were words that he would only reveal to his wife. He would never give out compliments this way if he were facing his two disciples now, even if it was the well-behaved Shen Xingchen.
This was because they were fearful of Shang Qingshan... He had the power of premonition. If he could predict the future, what more of situations that had already happened?
“I’m aware that Big Brother is trying to infiltrate Azure Mountain, has he succeeded? The entire realm is now under his control?” Qi Hui was shocked.
Outsiders might think Shang Qingshan was in control of this realm, but the core high management such as they would know better. Shan Qingshan was still working on it.
This was, after all, a fertile and rich realm, favored and endowed by nature and the heavens. It was the one and the only realm thriving from feeding off China.
Other realms and worlds conduct a vitality exchange, which would need to be reciprocated to the heavens and earth.
This was the only realm that could feed on outside vitality without needing to give back any,
“It’s not fully accurate but you are not far from the truth.” Shang Ruoyu nodded.
Gu Buwei watched them silently without revealing much.
He was familiar with the realm of Azure Mountain, it was indeed unattainable.
He was opportunistic and ruthless, he had no room for kinship, friendship or love in his heart. All that was there, was immortality, the Axiom, and power...
Everything was calculated carefully and no one was ever able to take advantage.
There was no evil or good, no right or wrong, no truth or falsehood, he only cared for one thing; if it was it useful to him.
“If this is the case, it looks like my sister’s work would be foolproof, we should immediately move the mountain’s entrance.” Qi Hui was getting anxious.
Shang Ruoyu did not react but turned to look at somewhere in the distance.
There was someone watching them coldly.
“This is not right. Xingchen, keep track of that person. If there is anything going on, inform me immediately with the secret technique,” he said nonchalantly.
“Yes, Master,” Xingchen grabbed the chance to reply immediately.
From the conversation, he was sharp to discover an opportunity to move up the ladder. This senior of his may have brought him into this clan but his experience and strength could never compare to those of Xingchen’s.
However, his senior had made a big mistake, which was getting friendly with Vigilante A. This meant that he had lost the trust of the two elders.
This was his chance to move up the order.
This was why he was being aggressive.
Gu Buwei just nodded his head silently.
The two then went towards where Vigilante A was.
...
“If it was just Xingchen, it would be understandable. But my dear husband, why did you make Buwei leave too? He has been with you for decades.” Qi Hui did not understand why.
She knew her husband’s prowess, he had no need to request his two disciples to watch Vigilante A.
If Vigilante A made any move, he would be aware immediately. There was no need for anyone to inform him.
“The entrance of the Mountain is of utmost importance, we cannot afford any mistakes. If an outsider manages to penetrate into this realm from the entrance, it would be on our heads. The consequence would be unimaginable,” said Shang Ruoyu seriously.
“Oh, are you saying Big Brother will...?” Qi Hui asked disbelievingly.
Shang Ruoyu nodded silently, confirming her thoughts.
Qi Hui felt a chill down her spine. It was the first time she felt that the world was a cruel place... There was actually a moment when her husband would be unable to protect her.
“Then why did you accept this mission?” she asked carefully.
Shang Ruoyu smiled bitterly without replying her.
Qi Hui realized she had asked a stupid question, if not for her sister, would he have accepted something that would jeopardize their future?
No one would have taken up this mission.
At the very least, the few juniors would have rushed to accept this mission in order to curry favor with Shang Qingshan.
“I’m so sorry, my sister had created so much trouble.” Qi Hui suddenly understood why her husband had given in to Vigilante A. It was because he did not want to create any slips in the matter.
If both sides had got into a fight, even with her husband’s masterful Spiritual Association, he would still need to face someone who descended from a True Dragon. He was no ordinary Descended One and had very strong support.
If they had gotten into a fight, who knew what the outcome of the battle would be. It would even have affected the moving of the mountain’s entrance.
“Don’t worry. She is after all still young and does not understand how evil the world can be. We would be okay once we get past this catastrophe.” Shang Ruoyu consoled her.
“Okay, why don’t we begin?”
“Yes, let’s.”
With this, the immortal couple started casting their spell.
In the void, where no one could see, a number of pathways were being pulled towards the foot the mountain to connect it.
