Chapter 3108 Giant Tree and Spirit Wood

Zhang Xuezhou used to see some small topics discussed online frequently.

For example, questions like, "If you had five million, what would you do?", "If you won the lottery, how would you spend the money?", and "If you had to choose between five million and Canglan Academy, which would you choose?"

These are small topics that 99% of people will never achieve in their lifetime, but that doesn't stop many people from discussing them enthusiastically and giving all sorts of ideal answers.

Zhang Xuezhou's previous empty promises about the Spirit Wood Staff were no different; he himself wasn't confident in fulfilling them, so how could he possibly deliver on his promises?

But after witnessing the vine's important memories throughout its life, Zhang Xuezhou's mental world, which interacted with the spirit wood staff, was filled with countless green lights, and all sorts of wishful thinking surged forth.

Zhang Xuezhou felt as if he had become an emperor who ruled over a vast empire, and at the same time, he was surrounded by a lavish feast of wine and women, with a constant stream of beautiful women, and the power to destroy mountains and rivers, and a lifespan that seemed to have no end...

The greatest achievements that humankind could conceive of flashed through his mind one after another.

Compared to the life of a vine, this kind of life seems to be so successful that many people can only dream of it.

"Moonset!"

As the bright moon hung in the sky, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the crazy thoughts that kept surging in his mind had calmed down a lot.

But he soon saw the towering figure under the moonlight.

"It's that giant tree!"

The giant tree in my memory was so large that it occupied an entire planet; its sheer size and grandeur were beyond imagination.

But in the boundless spiritual world, the giant tree will have a size, even a size that Zhang Xuezhou can observe and perceive.

This transformation is like a television shot of a colossal object; no matter how big it is, you only need to zoom out to see the whole picture.

As his senses swept across, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the towering trees in the distance were of varying heights and lengths, just like the memories he had glimpsed from the tree chair. However, the other party was now alive and close to Zhang Xuezhou, even connected with his spiritual world, as if standing not far in front of him.

"I think I'm being harassed?"

When Zhang Xuezhou took over the operation of the giant tree chair from Donghua, he felt that he had fallen into Donghua's predicament.

However, despite searching several times, he could not find any trace of the giant tree, and his physical examination showed nothing abnormal.

At this point, Zhang Xuezhou noticed the giant tree's presence.

He was a little unsure whether he was being controlled in the same way, since Zhang Xuezhou was not currently mentally impaired, nor was he being driven to do things like a walking corpse.

He could even clearly judge whether he could withstand this mental impact, and that he could remain conscious unless the impact was increased tenfold.

Aside from being caught off guard and experiencing numerous unrealistic promises at the beginning, Zhang Xuezhou was not affected by the various promises brought by Green Mang at this time.

"Wait, it seems he's entangled with that green light inside the spiritwood staff!"

If he were to focus his senses, Zhang Xuezhou could only see towering trees, but if he lowered his head, he could see a small, inconspicuous section below.

Like a tiny ant under a giant tree, the tree form that the spiritwood staff had transformed into was minuscule.

If it weren't for the Spiritwood Staff radiating light like an emerald, Zhang Xuezhou would have indeed overlooked the other party's existence.

This is not merely about his contact with the giant tree's spiritual world; there is a third party involved, and Zhang Xuezhou even passively became an observer.

In this spiritual world, the true interaction occurs between the giant tree and the spirit wood staff, not between Zhang Xuezhou and the giant tree. "Just a touch, and the green light from the spirit wood staff fills the sky; its spiritual power surpasses mine?"

Zhang Xuezhou found it hard to believe.

If material temptations have no effect on him, women hold little interest for him, and an excessively long lifespan is boring, and if Zhang Xuezhou maintains a standard of "enough is enough" in terms of strength and doesn't demand too much, all these factors make it difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to fall into depravity.

But the ease with which one's mental strength could be violently enhanced was something Zhang Xuezhou truly envied.

Ren Yisheng, who had spent his entire life cultivating mental strength, still couldn't match Zhang Xuezhou's mental power. This led him to sigh and lament that the younger generation was surpassing the older. Meanwhile, Zhang Xuezhou, who had trained his entire life, couldn't withstand the possibility of the giant tree instantly bestowing the spirit wood staff upon him. This was indeed somewhat of a mental challenge.

"I wonder if there will be any repercussions, otherwise it wouldn't be bad if you touched me!"

Using the light of 'Moonfall' to avoid his mind from being confused and tempted, Zhang Xuezhou also kept an eye on the small figure under the giant tree, trying his best to judge the condition of this ancient chaotic species.

"This guy seems really happy right now!"

Zhang Xuezhou was very good at judging emotions in the spiritual world, and he felt that the green light in the spirit wood staff seemed to be very joyful.

When Zhang Xuezhou was nurturing it, he felt that the green light was barely clinging to life. It only took a breath to cooperate when he destroyed it, hoping that it would not be erased by Zhang Xuezhou. It only gained a bit of vitality after defeating Dou Ying's Yang Soul incarnation.

As for the joy and happiness they are experiencing now, it has never appeared in the other person's entire life.

"It's a tree, and I'm a tree too! Give me something in return!"

Having determined that the spiritwood staff had not suffered any damage and was actually thriving, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but sway and activated his Realm Technique.

Compared to the small sapling at the beginning, his realm tree is now extremely robust, with various magical fruits formed from magic hanging on its branches.

Zhang Xuezhou kept shaking the branches of the Boundary Tree and shouted towards the sky, clearly wanting to receive the same treatment.

The towering ancient tree paid him no heed, simply standing quietly beside the spirit tree.

Time passed slowly, and everything about the spirit tree remained the same, except for the flickering green light.

"If you're not going to give me anything, then let me out. Don't keep me waiting. You're like trees that don't care about time, but my life isn't as long as yours. I can't keep waiting like this!"

Zhang Xuezhou initially felt that nothing was wrong. He avoided the psychological impact and even thought about getting a share of the benefits.

Although the giant tree ignored him, Zhang Xuezhou didn't care. After all, he would ask for it if he could, and he wouldn't lose anything if he couldn't.

As time passed, Zhang Xuezhou realized that they had completely different life characteristics and their ways of doing things might be completely different.

He had a good sense of time, while the spiritwood staff and the giant tree had no sense of time. The things they recorded were either calculated in decades or centuries, or counted in centuries.

Even a brief exchange with the other party could take years or even decades.

After waiting for a while, the two trees remained motionless, and Zhang Xuezhou felt a growing sense of unease.

He shouted repeatedly, occasionally using the 'Moonfall' technique in an attempt to break free from its influence.

Some voices from the outside world entered his mind, but Zhang Xuezhou still couldn't shake off this state.

Only when darkness descended and the illusory flower house supported by the branches appeared did Zhang Xuezhou feel everything before him shatter, and the towering figure of the giant tree and the green light filling the sky disappeared.

At the same time, Zhang Xuezhou also discovered that this time travel was completely different from the previous ones.
