Chapter 702 The Woman Under the Golden Tree



At this moment, Lu Jingzhi widened his eyes and looked around in astonishment.

Above the sky, the sun and the moon were hanging high at the same time, shining brightly on each other.

Not far away, a clear spring is like a green gem inlaid in the earth, and the bottom is visible.

In the center of the spring stands a giant tree that is golden and dazzling, as if it were made of pure gold.

Lu Jingzhi walked slowly towards the spring, stepping on the green grass beneath his feet.

When he approached the spring, he leaned over to take a closer look and was surprised to find that an extremely strong breath of life rushed towards him and quickly enveloped him completely.

In an instant, Lu Jingzhi felt as if every cell in his body was bathed in warm sunshine.

The fatigue that had been accumulating for a long time disappeared in an instant, like morning mist meeting the rising sun.

At this moment, the wood lotus that had been staying on him suddenly moved.

Then, it flew out from Lu Jingzhi's body and landed under the golden tree.

Seeing this, Lu Jingzhi was filled with curiosity. He then exerted a little force with his feet and jumped up.

Fly directly from the Fountain of Life to this big golden tree.

After standing still, he raised his head and looked upwards, only to see golden fruits hanging among the lush branches and leaves.

These fruits are round and plump, and their shapes are just like cute babies the size of a palm, so lifelike.

"Could it be... this is the ginseng fruit?" Lu Jingzhi couldn't help but mutter to himself, a little dazed for a moment.

However, before he could come to his senses, the magnolia flower that had been floating quietly under the tree suddenly began to frantically absorb the life energy around it!

"Mulianhua, what are you doing?"

At this moment, a white light suddenly flew out from Lu Jingzhi's body.

The snow elf stretched lazily, flapped its injured little wings, and hovered in the air. It blinked its bright eyes and said crisply, "Brother, Sister Mulian needs to absorb a large amount of life energy now."

"Once she finishes absorbing it, she'll be just like us!"

When Lu Jingzhi heard the snow elf's words, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, "You...you can actually speak human language?"

The snow elf nodded slightly and replied with a smile: "Yes, as my strength continues to improve, I will of course gradually grow up."

Lu Jingzhi looked carefully at the snow elf in front of him and found that she seemed to have grown a few centimeters taller than before.

"If that's the case, doesn't that mean I have to wait here for the wood lotus to absorb its life energy?"

"Yeah, that's right."

The snow elf nodded obediently, then flapped its crystal clear wings and flew back into Lu Jingzhi's body.

At this time, Lu Jingzhi slowly raised his head and cast his gaze towards the wood lotus that was quietly absorbing life energy.

"Well then, Mulian, just calm down and absorb it slowly."

Then he turned and walked to a pool of emerald green spring water, thinking to himself.

"From the looks of it, this should be the fountain of life."

Thinking of this, he hurriedly reached into the ring on his waist, took out an exquisite green bottle, and carefully aimed the bottle mouth at the crystal clear spring.

Just as I was about to scoop some spring water into it.

Suddenly, he felt something tapping his shoulder gently.

This frightened Lu Jingzhi, who was scooping the Fountain of Life, and he turned around quickly as if he had been electrocuted.

At the same time, he raised his right hand high, as if he was about to strike down hard.

"My friend, my friend, don't be impulsive!"

Lu Jingzhi's face was full of suspicion, and he stared at the graceful and well-proportioned woman behind him.

She was standing tall and graceful, her green dress fluttering in the wind, as if she had walked out of a painting.

"Who are you? Why do you suddenly appear here?" Lu Jingzhi asked vigilantly.

The woman rolled her eyes and smiled slightly. "I am the spirit of this tree. Wouldn't you like to taste the fruit on it?"

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows playfully, her eyes full of temptation and inducement.

However, Lu Jingzhi remained unmoved. "No, I have no interest in these fruits. I came here only to find the Fountain of Life."

Hearing Lu Jingzhi's decisive refusal, the woman couldn't help but twitch her lips slightly, obviously a little surprised.

"Such a precious and rare fruit is right before your eyes, and yet you're not tempted at all?"

Lu Jingzhi was not moved by her words. Instead, he looked the mysterious woman up and down carefully.

After a moment, he sneered and asked, "You seem to really want me to eat these fruits. Could it be that they are poisoned?"

"Or, did you do something unspeakable in this?"

Facing Lu Jingzhi's questioning, the woman hurriedly explained, "My friend, you and I have never met before and have no grudges against each other. How could I possibly harm you?"

But Lu Jingzhi did not believe her easily.

He stared at the woman sharply and retorted again, "Just because we have no grudges doesn't mean you won't harm me."

"At this peak of life, if a stranger suddenly shows up and offers to give me food, anyone would be wary."

Lu Jingzhi looked like he would rather die than surrender, and he refused to open his mouth and eat the fruit no matter what.

This completely infuriated the woman in front of him. She suddenly rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair and slender right arm.

Then, she waved her right hand, and the fruit on the tree flew straight towards her and landed steadily in her palm.
