That thing that looked like a crystal core actually looked more like a diamond. Its deep purple color revealed a bit of evil, but the powerful energy contained in it had a huge appeal to Ruan Xi.

Just like when he reached the bottleneck of level breakthrough in his previous life, the crystal core of a high-level mutant plant attracted him so much that he couldn't wait to absorb the energy in it.

"Kid, wake up, don't be bewitched by the crystal core of the mutant vine." The sudden voice woke up Ruan Xi, who was almost immersed in it, making him a little confused for a moment. After he reacted, he felt a slight chill on his back.

I was careless and almost got bewitched by this thing.

"This thing... is called a crystal core? Can it only be found in mutant plants? Or, can it only be found in mutant plants from a higher-level civilization?" Ruan Xi's brain returned to normal function, and he immediately began to research the source of the crystal core.

This thing is also called a crystal core. Does it mean that he can also absorb the energy in the crystal core and enhance his wood-type ability? Thinking of this, Ruan Xi couldn't help but get excited.

Whether it is money or power, they are external things. What can truly protect oneself is the strength that belongs to oneself. This is the foundation of life that he should pay most attention to.

As long as he is strong enough, he will have the opportunity to get whatever he wants.

"The crystal core is not the product of a higher-level civilization. This mutant vine only produced the crystal core in its body after it came to this planet." The distant voice of the Tree of Life sounded in Ruan Xi's mind again, but the answer he gave surprised Ruan Xi.

"So, what's special is not the mutant vine, but the Funong Star?" This answer really surprised Ruan Xi. He really thought that this crystal core was brought by the mutant vine from a higher-level civilization.

"Then do you know about the situation on other planets? Do crystal cores exist?" Ruan Xi continued to ask, but the Tree of Life gave a negative answer.

It’s not that other planets don’t have crystal cores, but that he simply doesn’t know about them.

"I have always stayed on this planet and have never left. Naturally, I have no way of knowing the situation on other planets. Child, you have a chance to go out and take a look." It was a rare encounter, and with the added grace of saving life, the tone of the Tree of Life when speaking to Ruan Xi became more kind and gentle.

"Well, I want to go out and take a look. I want to go to college and study medicine." Facing the Tree of Life, Ruan Xi had nothing to hide. The man and the tree communicated with each other through consciousness in their minds, and the communication was extremely smooth.

The age of the Tree of Life must be at least five hundred years old. It has been growing here alone. No one has ever talked to it, and no one can even get close to this place. He said that he was particularly happy to meet Ruan Xi and couldn't help talking.

This chatterbox laid out all of the Tree of Life's experiences in front of Ruan Xi. Ruan Xi mostly listened quietly, and the Tree of Life was not overly curious about his origins. It only asked his name solemnly.

"Well, kid, let's be friends. When you are free in the future, come here and keep me company." The expectation in the words of the Tree of Life was so strong that it was impossible to ignore it.

What's more, Ruan Xi never thought of ignoring it. He was eager to make friends with the Tree of Life!

"My name is Ruan Xi, Dashu, nice to meet you." Since we are friends, of course we can no longer use the official name like Tree of Life. It is necessary to use a closer code name.

"Big Tree... I like this name. I am Big Tree, and you are Xiaoxi. From now on, we will be friends!" It was obviously an old and distant voice, but Ruan Xi could hear a bit of innocence in it. However, for such a powerful existence as the Tree of Life, which is hundreds of years old, it is probably still a child.

"Well, Dashu, please give me more guidance in the future." Ruan Xi also unconsciously acted childishly for once, smiling with a sunny face.

As the man and the tree chatted, the topic returned to the crystal core of the mutant vine. Although the Tree of Life repeatedly reminded him and Ruan Xi himself was particularly vigilant, he had to admit that the energy in the crystal core of the mutant vine was still particularly attractive to him.

"Can't I absorb the energy in this crystal core?"

Really, I really want to suck it!
