Originally, Ruan Xi thought that what he grabbed was a tree root, but he soon discovered that it was not a tree root at all, but a vine plant that looked and looked very similar to a tree root.
Although the original owner's physical strength was not good, his physical fitness was still acceptable. In addition, Ruan Xi had the willpower to survive the baptism of the end of the world. No matter how hard the vine hit him, he never let go of his hands.
At first, Ruan Xi was swung around in the thick leaves by the vine, and never touched the moist soil underneath. Instead, he hit the trunk of the giant tree several times. The force of the hits made him think that all his internal organs were displaced.
The violence of the cane was transmitted to Ruan Xi's consciousness with incredible clarity. Hidden within that violence was an undisguised malice and even a bloodlust, which made Ruan Xi's heart tense.
He had reason to believe that as soon as he let go, he would immediately become food for the vine.
As a wood-type ability user, Ruan Xi could clearly sense that vines and giant trees were two completely different entities. The giant tree brought them a sense of peace, while the vines were completely violent. These two contradictory entities simply should not be combined.
While he was thinking, Ruan Xi was thrown out heavily again. He had no way of predicting where he would land, but at a certain moment, he felt the trunk of the giant tree. He thought it was nothing to be afraid of, as he would be hit anyway, so he might as well save his energy on being afraid.
However, Ruan Xi didn't feel the expected pain. The instant he bumped into it, the sensation he felt was indeed the rough bark, but the softness definitely couldn't come from a hard trunk. He sank into the softness, and then, it enveloped him.
There was no feeling of being squeezed or suffocated. All I could feel around me was softness, a softness that carried the fresh scent of grass and trees.
"Tree of Life?" Ruan Xi had a guess in his mind and subconsciously called out softly. Unexpectedly, he actually got a response.
It was an extremely old yet extremely warm voice. No one who heard it would feel even the slightest bit of dislike towards the owner of this voice.
"Child, can you help me? I am the Tree of Life, the root of this planet. This mutated vine from a higher-level civilization has been sucking my energy. If this continues, this planet will dry up..." Having said that, the Tree of Life sighed deeply, and his voice was full of helplessness and melancholy, but also a hint of hope.
"How can I help you? Can I use my wood-type ability..." Ruan Xi was born with a liking for plants, and this was even more so after he acquired the wood-type ability. After hearing the request of the Tree of Life, he wanted to help without any hesitation.
However, how to help is a big problem.
Ruan Xi asked subconsciously, but he suddenly stopped mid-sentence and raised his hand in disbelief, "Can I use my supernatural powers now?"
"Child, you are inside me, so you are naturally unaffected by the mutant vine. You can use your strength. The mutant vine's weakness is in its roots. What you just grabbed is its root. As long as you destroy its roots, the mutant vine will wither immediately."
This matter did not sound very difficult. Ruan Xi was a little confused, but he did not need to ask, because the Tree of Life took the initiative to give the answer.
"Alas, isn't it because we lived too comfortably in the past, and suddenly a stranger showed up, and we were tricked..." The voice of the Tree of Life sounded quite aggrieved, with a bit of melancholy, and Ruan Xi almost couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
Well, this kind of thing is very possible.
