The Spirit of Life is my innate spirit. Once something happens to me, the Spirit of Life will take over as the next Tree of Life. You should know that only one Tree of Life can exist in the world!
Originally, we were supposed to wait until I completely disappeared, and the Spirit of Life would turn into a Life Seed and grow anew. However, at that time, as a seed, it would be at its weakest, unable to protect itself!
Therefore, after much contemplation when something happened, I chose to condense it into a Life Seed in advance, nurturing it within me while waiting for your return! This way, by forming a contract with it, you can take it away from here. I will maintain the situation here, so those people won’t notice anything amiss, and it will have time to grow stronger gradually! Jiuli girl, I entrust it to you in the future..." Elder Shu said to Mo Jiuli.
"Don’t worry, Elder Shu, I will take good care of it!" Mo Jiuli replied and was just about to seal the pact with blood when she suddenly thought of something and asked Elder Shu, "Elder Shu, can’t I just take care of it directly? Must there be a contract?"
"Yes, if you don’t form a contract, you won’t be able to take it out!" Elder Shu said.
"I understand!" Mo Jiuli nodded and, without further hesitation, pierced her fingertip to seal the pact with blood.
A drop of blood fell on the green seed in Mo Jiuli’s hand, and soon a green light enveloped her and the seed! Elder Shu saw this and his eyes reflected relief, as if he had finally completed a daunting task, but Mo Jiuli, surrounded by the contract light, did not notice...
After a long time, the contract light faded, and Mo Jiuli could sense a faint bond of contract between herself and the Life Seed in her hand. She then placed it into her space and entrusted it to the little book...
The little book was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly planted the Life Seed in an isolated medicine field, tending to it carefully with Spiritual Spring Water...
"Jiuli girl, I leave it in your hands now! Leave Jade City and the Life World quickly! Since you have formed a contract with the Life Seed, you will naturally carry a trace of its aura, so it’s better not to stay here. In the future, if anyone asks you about the Life Seed or the Tree of Life, do not say a word! Even to those you are close to, keep it a secret, understood?" Elder Shu advised Mo Jiuli.
"Don’t worry, I understand!" Mo Jiuli nodded.
"Jiuli girl, take this. If anyone questions the aura on you, present this to divert them!" As Elder Shu spoke, a section of a tree branch flew out from his embrace and landed in Mo Jiuli’s hand.
As soon as Mo Jiuli held it, she could feel the gentle and warm life force within... Elder Shu’s essence...
"Elder Shu, are you really okay?" Mo Jiuli asked, still very worried.
"Jiuli girl, rest assured! Although these things confine me, at least I will be fine for ten thousand years! Maybe by then, those people will give up and leave, allowing me to regain my freedom! You needn’t worry about me. I’m content knowing that you can protect the Life Seed for me!" Elder Shu smiled and said.
"I understand, I will find a way to save you. Even if I can’t now, I believe I will find a way in the future!" Mo Jiuli vowed.
"Alright. Jiuli girl, hurry and leave!" Elder Shu urged.
