My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 76 Moon Spring Ancient Vine

"Can you enter the starry sky?"

The mysterious little beast looked at Li Chen in surprise: "Although Gu Xuanxing has shattered, the celestial energy hasn't disappeared. Under normal circumstances, only a Human King can break through the celestial energy. How did you manage to do it?"

Li Chen smiled but remained silent.

"You little rascal, you probably have quite a secret."

The mysterious little beast scrutinized Li Chen for a few seconds before sighing, "Don't worry, I won't covet any of your secrets. Our fates are already sealed."

After a pause, it spoke again: "If you want to establish a dojo on an uninhabited planet, you can plant a Star Tree."

"The Star Tree?"

Li Chen's heart skipped a beat: "What kind of plant is that? Are there trees like that in this forest?"

"In the inheritance site of the Void Temple, there seems to be a sapling of the Star Tree. This is a spiritual root of heaven and earth, which is born with the effect of purifying planets and optimizing planetary environments."

The mysterious little beast replied, "A single Star Tree, even a sapling, can transform a super-giant planet with a diameter of millions of miles into a habitable planet within just a hundred years."

"What amazing trees!"

Li Chen was surprised; there really was such a plant.

However—the Void Temple's most precious treasure?

Forget it then. This mysterious little beast has been trying to trick him into participating in the Void Temple's assessment, but he has no idea what kind of traps are involved.

I don't need the Void Furnace Scripture right now, nor do I want to bear the karma of the Void Temple.

"Besides the star tree, are there any other suitable plants?" he pressed.

Seeing that Li Chen hadn't taken the bait, the mysterious little beast was somewhat disappointed.

However, since it already considered Li Chen as one of its own, it didn't hold back and spoke again: "There are actually quite a few plants that can purify a planet, but very few are in the Bone Forbidden Land."

After a pause, it spoke again: "If you don't choose the Star Tree, then there's only one choice left here. Wait a moment."

As soon as the words were spoken, it vanished in a stream of light.

Li Chen immediately landed on a giant tree over 300 meters tall nearby and waited, remaining vigilant at all times.

Although he hadn't sensed any danger, the mysterious little beast was far stronger than him, so he couldn't be too careful.

The reason I came to consult the mysterious little beast was twofold: firstly, to test its attitude, and secondly, to resolve the problem more quickly.

As a super strong being who has survived for countless years, the mysterious little beast must have a lot of experience and might be able to offer a better choice.

About ten minutes later, the mysterious little beast reappeared.

"These are the seeds of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine. The Moon Spring Ancient Vine is a special plant that was specially researched by ancient powerful beings in order to transform the planet. It is not a spiritual root of heaven and earth."

It took out a seed: "I can give you this seed, but you need to agree to one condition. After all, if you want to sell this, you can forget about it without a god-level source stone mine."

Li Chen raised an eyebrow. Although he didn't know the value of a god-level source stone vein, anything related to "god-level" was bound to be extraordinary.

Moreover, the other party had previously stated that the Moon Spring Ancient Vine should possess effects similar to the Star Tree, capable of purifying planets.

Such a treasure must be extremely valuable.

"Tell me what you think, senior." Li Chen didn't dare to agree directly, lest he fall into a trap.

"I don't know if you obtained the complete text of the Void Furnace Scripture elsewhere, or if you received a better inheritance. You seem to have no interest in the inheritance of the Void Temple at all."

The mysterious little beast stared intently at Li Chen: "The requirement is that in the future, you either accept the inheritance of the Void Temple, or help cultivate a successor qualified to inherit the mantle of the Void Temple. There is no time limit, as long as it lasts for your lifetime."

"No time limit? Okay—"

Li Chen thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "This junior agrees."

"very good."

The mysterious little beast smiled and presented the seed to Li Chen: "Although the value of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine is far less than that of the Star Tree, it also has the characteristic of purifying planets. After you plant it, feed it with source stones, and it will sprout in less than half a year. After that, you won't need to take care of it; it will automatically purify the planet."

Li Chen took the seed and found that it was the size of a billiard ball and looked like a precious pearl with mysterious spiral patterns on its surface.

The patterns radiate a silvery-white glow, like moonlight.

"The seedling stage of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine is about one to ten years, depending on the amount of resources you feed it."

The mysterious little beast spoke again: "During this period, it will quickly take root, with its root system reaching 500 meters underground, absorbing minerals to grow."

"Once the seedling stage ends, it will enter the maturity stage, which takes about ten to one hundred years, depending on the amount of resources you provide."

"When the Moon Spring Ancient Vine matures, it will form a purification field, and its roots will continue to spread throughout the entire planet, sprouting from all parts of the planet. Of course, don't worry, the mission of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine is to purify the planet, so you don't need to worry about it absorbing the planet dry. Once the planet no longer needs its purification, it will automatically stop growing."

"At that time, you can cut it down or keep it. As long as it is alive, its purification range will always exist, covering a radius of fifty miles around the seedling."

At this point, the mysterious little beast looked at Li Chen: "The Moon Spring Ancient Vine itself has no will or intelligence, only the instinct to purify the planet. It has no offensive capabilities. You can refine it, but there is no need to cultivate it into a killing weapon. It would be a loss."

"Thank you, senior."

Li Chen thanked them and then used the Time-Space Teleportation technique to leave Gu Xuan Star.

The mysterious little beast narrowed its eyes slightly as it watched the mist suddenly and then slowly dissipate.

"A teleportation-like divine ability? This kid is practically a born inheritor of the Void Temple—"

It secretly lamented: "Such a prodigy actually looks down on the legacy of the Void Temple—how ironic."

Inside an uninhabited planet.

A mist appeared out of nowhere, and Li Chen emerged from it.

"Let's keep calling this planet 'Moon Spring Star'."

He first gave the planet a name, then took the seeds of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine and walked towards a flat area.

During this process, he tried to input source energy into the seed and easily refined it.

At that moment, he also saw the information left on the seed by time through the Eye of Time and Space, the content of which was similar to what the mysterious little beast had said.

The great minds of ancient times were truly remarkable; they were able to research and discover this plant.

Li Chen was amazed.

Soon, he arrived at the spot he had chosen earlier, gently stomped on the ground to make a large pit, and then took out 100 jin of source stones and threw them in.

Next, he placed the seeds of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine into the deep pit.

"Because it has already been refined, the seeds of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine did not act on their own initiative."

Only after he gave the order did the seed finally begin to absorb the energy from the Originium, sprouting and taking root at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The energy inside the Originium was eventually absorbed and turned into a pile of dust.

Meanwhile, the pearl-shaped seed has begun to take root in the ground, and at the same time, a vine-like sprout has emerged from the ground.

However, the vine only grew to a little over two meters tall before it stopped growing.

Li Chen hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't bear to continue using the source stone. Instead, he infused it with the vitality attribute.

He already had a lot of vitality attributes, but source stones were very precious cultivation resources.

As more and more vitality attributes were incorporated, Li Chen could sense that the roots of the Moon Spring Ancient Vine were continuously extending downwards.
