After the start of each school term, Shang Lin rarely entered the Dragon Spirit Tower. In fact, he would only enter if absolutely necessary. But tonight, as soon as he entered, he was immediately stunned and then exclaimed, "Divine Lord, what's going on in the Dragon Spirit Tower? Where is this vibrant life force coming from?"

When Chi Xie sent the message to Shang Lin, he didn't feel anything. He even thought it might be because the herb garden had grown bigger and the spiritual energy in the Dragon Spirit Tower had become more concentrated. But now, he could truly feel it.

The deity instantly flew over from the riverbank, looking at Shang Lin with displeasure. "When did you become so impulsive? Is shouting like this your style? Do you want to scare Xiaobai again?"

Shang Lin, "..."

Little White is a demon beast, after all. It was understandable that it was frightened by my imposing aura before. This time, I only raised my voice a little. How could I scare it? Besides, where is Little White? I didn't even see it.

But when he thought about how the God was acting this way, probably because he was getting a little annoyed taking care of the cub, he knew that if something happened to Little White, he would have to expend even more energy.

So Shang Lin immediately compromised, saying, "It's my fault, it's my fault, but I was a little anxious because I didn't see the Divine Lord right away. I will definitely pay attention next time."

The deity's eyes widened immediately. "You want a next time?!"

"No, no, there won't be a next time." Shang Lin hurriedly put on a smile. "So what happened inside the Dragon Spirit Tower?"

After thinking for a moment, the deity said, "It should be related to the things recently brought into the Dragon Spirit Tower, such as those fertilizers, and that sapling that might be a Dao Wood?"

Shang Lin ignored the Divine Lord and went straight to the edge of the herb garden, pricking his fingertip. The tower spirit was unreliable, and the tower master couldn't do anything about it either! He should ask Green One.

But upon calm reflection, there are indeed only the two possibilities mentioned by the Divine Lord. After all, fertilizer can nourish medicinal herbs, and medicinal herbs possess spiritual energy, which can make people feel their vitality, even if it is not so obvious.

Red Scorpion hurriedly walked to Shang Lin's side and asked, "What sapling?"

As blood dripped from his fingertip, a figure darted out of the herb garden and replied, "It's the thing that's protecting behind that strange-looking monster in the sewers."

That day, Chi Xie and Shang Lin switched roles protecting Fan Mingyu, so he had no idea what happened afterward.

But in that instant, Lü Yao jumped into Shang Lin's hand and was about to bite his fingertip when he stopped her with another finger. "Where did you plant that sapling?"

Green Yao pointed to the center of the herb garden, and Shang Lin asked again, "Is the vibrant life force in the tower brought about by that sapling?"

Lü Yao nodded, and Shang Lin was somewhat surprised, "You know what kind of tree that is?!"

Greenie shook her head, and Red Scorpion looked anxious. "I'll go take a look." With that, she flew up and headed towards the center of the herb garden.

Shang Lin withdrew his finger to stop Lü Yao and followed, but he couldn't fly in the air like the Red Scorpion yet, so he only walked around the outer edge of the herb garden.

Upon seeing this, the Divine Lord followed. As for Green Yao, nothing could be more important than seeing Shang Lin's blood.

In the very center of the herb garden, there was a fairly open patch of land with a small sapling planted on it. If it weren't for the fact that its roots, trunk, and leaves were clearly visible, it wouldn't be surprising if it had been mistaken for a blade of grass.

Because it is really small, now that Green Yao has planted it in the ground, the part above ground is barely the size of an adult man's palm, and not even the palm of a particularly tall man.

However, upon seeing the sapling, Red Scorpion's eyes immediately turned red. "How is this possible? How can there be a Tree of Life in the human realm?!"

Shang Lin, who had run over, and Shen Jun, who had flown over, were both taken aback by Chi Xie's words. They asked almost in unison, "You recognize this tree?"

The red scorpion landed gently beside the sapling, its movements so light as if afraid of damaging it. "Legend has it that the Tree of Life grows deep in a remote and mysterious valley. Its trunk is thick and upright, like an ancient stone pillar, its bark textured like the veins of the earth, and its branches and leaves are as lush as the sky, shimmering with the luster of jewels. Each leaf is like a tiny world of life, containing a vibrant vitality."

Shang Lin subconsciously glanced at the Divine Lord. Unexpectedly, none of them who had seen it knew what kind of tree it was, but the Crimson Scorpion, who had never seen it before, did.

The deity looked at the red scorpion and asked, "Then is this a tree from the human realm?"

“No,” Red Scorpion said with certainty. “It’s a tree from a secret realm where my race lives. I know about it because of inherited memories, but how could the Tree of Life appear in the human realm?! And as a sapling?”

Regarding this issue, just like those bats and evil spirits that shouldn't appear in the new city area and sewers, the most reasonable guess they can think of right now is that two eras overlapped under some special circumstances.

When the two realms overlap, some things become out of place for various reasons. Even so, the Tree of Life should not be near demons and evil spirits!

However, at this moment, Shang Lin, like the God Lord just now, decided not to delve into the details since it was a good thing anyway. Of course, they had nowhere to go after it. If it was really the product of the overlap between two realms, just as they guessed, what else could they do?

Shang Lin picked up the Green Demon, held it up to his eyes at eye level, and before the Green Demon "passed away," he said, "When Red Scorpion leaves, give him some medicinal herbs for cooking. No, give Red Scorpion a portion of whatever medicinal herbs you gave to Little Snake."

Greenie shook its leaves, which was a sign of agreement.

Seeing that Chi Xie was still staring at the Tree of Life as if trying to see something amazing, Shang Lin asked, "Are you trying to find your clan's territory by exploring this sapling?"

Red Scorpion then came to his senses, quickly composed himself, and his eyes slowly turned black before replying, "How could that be? I was just a little excited because it was the first time I had seen something from the inherited memories. Besides, I have lived in the human world since birth, so where would I get homesickness?"

Shang Lin wanted to say, "Your thinking is futile. With the current strength of our Yuntai Sect, there is absolutely no possibility of crossing realms. Not to mention, there are unknown secret realms that don't even know where they exist!"

But such honesty is so hurtful! Red Scorpion is his servant, not his enemy, so Shang Lin said, "Now that we know where the vibrant life force in the Dragon Spirit Tower comes from, I'm going to rest."

The deity hurriedly said, "The little snake may not come back tonight, I have to catch Little White."
