As the tree spirit spoke, its voice grew increasingly low. Gu Liyan shifted his gaze from the seed and looked back at the tree spirit, suddenly noticing that its entire trunk was gradually withering.

"Senior!" Gu Liyan called out anxiously.

"Don't worry, this is normal life and death. Life and death are just like this! Hehehe..." the tree spirit said with a laugh.

Gu Liyan's eyes reddened slightly. "Senior, if it weren't for this, you wouldn't have..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I can live forever without you? Gu Liyan, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Sometimes it's best to just let things take their course..." The tree spirit smiled and looked at Gu Liyan, saying, "Sometimes, everything is predestined!"

The words had barely left his lips when the ancient tree withered, its leaves fell, and vanished in the wind as dead leaves...

Gu Liyan's tears fell instantly. "Senior, I... I understand... I won't put pressure on myself. I'll let everything change naturally..."

Gu Liyan subconsciously gripped the seed in his hand tightly, and suddenly the seed emitted a powerful aura.

That aura blended seamlessly with Gu Liyan's, becoming one with her perfectly.

Feeling that familiar aura, Gu Liyan couldn't help but tremble. "This, this is..."

Mo Chen, trapped in his consciousness, couldn't help but jump out of his shell. Just like Gu Liyan, he stared in astonishment at the life-filled seed in Gu Liyan's palm, exclaiming in shock.

"Endless life... the power of life!"

Gu Liyan swallowed hard. He never expected to obtain the power of life here!

"Gu Liyan, is this...is this true?" Mo Chen asked with a solemn expression.

Gu Liyan frowned, turned around and kicked Mo Chen in the butt.

"Ouch! Why did you kick me like that!" Mo Chen complained.

"Ah! It's true!" Gu Liyan stared solemnly at the seed in his palm. "Could this endless power be...?"

Gu Liyan suddenly thought of something, but didn't say it directly to Mo Chen.

"What? What is it?" Mo Chen pressed.

Gu Liyan completely ignored Mo Chen, thought for a moment, and swallowed the seed!

"Hey! What are you doing?!" Mo Chen exclaimed in surprise.

"As you can see, it's eaten!"

"No, no, I know you ate it, but how could you eat it?!" Mo Chen said anxiously, "You should have sent this back to the Nine Springs Realm! That way, the Nine Springs Realm would have one more layer of protection!"

"You forgot, we can't go back." Gu Liyan said seriously, "Besides, I'm going to change this world!"

"..." Mo Chen's face darkened. "I know, but I still find it hard to understand... This is the first time I've heard of changing the world just for a simple 'hello'..."

Upon hearing Mo Chen's words, Gu Liyan nodded solemnly, "Yes, that's it! Hello World, that's the code name for this operation!"

"What the hell? Why are there code names now?!" Mo Chen was completely bewildered.

"Hello world, I'm here!" Gu Liyan smiled slightly, revealing his signature fox-like smile.
