Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "For ordinary crops or plants that only have a few months of life, we can't do anything about them. When they die, they leave behind seeds. In other words, even if they die, their descendants will survive. This is how their race continues. But for plants like trees that have a lifespan of hundreds or thousands of years, they won't die so easily. They can even achieve immortality in theory."
"Immortality?" This was the first time that Cai Wanpeng and the others heard about this theory. They looked at Zhao Hai in surprise. In their minds, immortality simply didn't exist. But now, Zhao Hai's theory completely overturned everything they learned. They couldn't accept it for a while.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right, immortality sounds incredible. But you should know, where does the Nature Energy that we cultivate come from? In the Wen Ji Continent, very few plant masters would exchange energy with plants. But in fact, in the Soldier Spirit Continent, if plant masters want to cultivate faster, they would need to exchange energy with plant masters. Plants also like to exchange energy with us. Plants have a lot of natural energy inside their bodies, but the natural energy that they can use isn't a lot. There's a lot of natural energy that they can't use. This natural energy that they can't use for a long time accumulating in their bodies isn't beneficial to them. In fact, it would be harmful to them in the end. "Zhao Hai smiled and said," That's right. I'm not sure if I'll be able to use it or not. I'm sure that I'll be able to use it.
Speaking up to here, Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "Plant Masters have a very important task, and that is to help plants transform their natural energy. Plants can store weapons in their soul object spaces, but they can also be used to transform natural energy. We can absorb the natural energy that the plants don't need into our soul object spaces, and then return it to the plants. After this natural energy is absorbed by the plants, we can take a part of it and turn it into our own energy. This way, we can help the plants, but at the same time, it can also speed up our cultivation." Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "Plant Masters have a very important task, and that is to help the plants transform their natural energy. At the same time, we can also increase our cultivation speed."
Cai Wanpeng and the others stared blankly at Zhao Hai's words. They had never exchanged Nature Energy with plants before. In fact, there was no such thing in the Wen Ji Continent.
Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and continued, "Plant Masters will undergo a certain degree of evolution in the process of transforming natural energy. But if no one transforms natural energy for them, then the natural energy that isn't easy to absorb would slowly accumulate in their bodies, compressing the space for them to absorb natural energy. When the natural energy fills their bodies, then they would naturally die. This process is different from the tree species, and the time it takes is also different. Some trees might complete this process in just a few years, and they would no longer be able to absorb natural energy. Some trees can live up to several thousand years, and the Ancestral Tree in the village clearly belongs to the latter. The reason why the Ancestral Tree's leaves turned yellow is because its body is filled with natural energy that isn't easy to absorb. It's like a person whose stomach is filled with stones that can't be absorbed. But the stones in their stomach can't provide them with any nutrients, and in the end, they can only die. The Ancestral Tree's situation is the same. If you want to cure the Ancestral Tree's problem, it's actually very simple. All you need to do is to absorb the natural energy in the Ancestral Tree's body and then return it to the Ancestral Tree. This way, the Ancestral Tree can live for several thousand years." Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "The reason why the Ancestral Tree's leaves turned yellow is because its body is filled with natural energy that isn't easy to absorb.
When Cai Wanpeng and the others heard Zhao Hai, their eyes couldn't help but light up. Then they looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, can we begin now?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That won't do. It's best if I absorb the Ancestral Tree's natural energy first. This is because the Ancestral Tree has been growing for so many years. If I let you absorb it, then your soul item spaces wouldn't be big enough. I'm afraid that your soul item spaces would explode. Because of this, I'll be the first one to do the experiments." Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I'll be the first one to absorb the natural energy.
After he said that, Zhao Hai stood up and walked towards the Ancestor Tree. He looked at the dazed Treant and smiled faintly. Then he extended his hand towards the Ancestor Tree. Then Zhao Hai's body emitted a green light before it disappeared.
Zhao Hai withdrew his hand and let out a long breath. Then he turned to Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "You should also communicate with the Ancestor Tree. Remember, use your strength to communicate with it. Tell it that you want to exchange Nature Energy with it, but you need to control the amount of Nature Energy you absorb. Don't absorb too much Nature Energy at once and damage your Space. That kind of damage will last for a lifetime. If that happens, then you will regret it."
Cai Wanpeng and the others nodded. Then Cai Wanpeng walked towards the Ancestor Tree and touched it with his hand. After some time, he finally managed to communicate with the Ancestor Tree. Then he began to exchange Nature Energy with the Ancestor Tree.
Exchanging Nature Energy with the Ancestor Tree wasn't difficult. For a Plant Master, this could be said to be an instinct. Before long, Cai Wanpeng felt his Space expanding. He immediately stopped absorbing Nature Energy and returned the Nature Energy to the Ancestor Tree. After returning the Nature Energy to the Ancestor Tree, Cai Wanpeng could feel a pleasant feeling coming from the Ancestor Tree. This made Cai Wanpeng's mood better.
Cai Wanpeng withdrew his hand and let out a long breath. He could feel that his strength had increased. Although it wasn't a lot, it was still faster than his cultivation speed.
Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng, then he smiled faintly and said, "You can exchange energy with the Ancestral Tree several times. When you feel that your soul space can't hold any more natural energy, then you can stop. Then you can use your own natural energy to slowly refine the natural energy that you've absorbed, turning it into your own energy."
Cai Wanpeng nodded. Just when he was about to exchange Nature Energy with the Ancestor Tree, Zhao Hai immediately stopped him and said, "Don't do it here. We're treating the Ancestor Tree right now. Once we're in the forest, it won't be too late for you to experiment. Everyone can come up and exchange Nature Energy with the Ancestor Tree. This way, the Ancestor Tree's Nature Energy will be converted into a large portion of its Nature Energy. This way, it won't need to exchange Nature Energy for a long time.
When the others heard Zhao Hai, they nodded and went forward to exchange natural energy with the Ancestral Tree. After everyone exchanged natural energy with the Ancestral Tree, Zhao Hai felt that the Ancestral Tree's body no longer had any accumulated natural energy. He nodded and turned to the Village Chief and said, "Village Chief, the Ancestral Tree's illness has been cured. We should leave now." Zhao Hai nodded and turned to the Village Chief.
Actually, Zhao Hai could absorb all of the Nature Energy in the Ancestor Tree by himself. However, he didn't do so. Instead, he absorbed a bit of Nature Energy and let Cai Wanpeng and the others absorb it. This way, not only would he be able to train them, he also wouldn't make himself seem too powerful and attract attention.
When the Village Chief heard Zhao Hai, he quickly bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, I feel that you've begged the entire village. Mister, please come with me." Then he led Zhao Hai into the village. Before long, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the Village Chief's house. The Village Chief took out ten gold coins and handed them to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, this is the reward that we've prepared. It's not much, please accept it."
Zhao Hai nodded and received the gold coins. Then he turned to the Village Chief and said, "Then I'll have to thank the Village Chief. Then we'll be taking our leave."
The Village Chief quickly said, "Sirs, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We were just about to give our thanks."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "There's no need to be so polite. We still have other things to do, so we can't stay here for long. Goodbye." Then he cupped his fist to the Village Chief and then led Cai Wanpeng and the others out of the village.
The Village Chief sent Zhao Hai and the others to the entrance of the village before returning to the village. He was still worried as he went to the Ancestor Tree to take a careful look. Seeing this, the Village Chief couldn't help but be overjoyed. Where the Ancestor Tree had withered leaves, it was now growing new leaves. Moreover, the Ancestor Tree didn't seem to be lethargic. On the contrary, the Ancestor Tree seemed to have been reborn. This feeling was very magical. When the Village Chief saw this, he finally felt relieved.
At this time, Zhao Hai took the gold coins that the Village Chief gave him and gave it to Cai Wanpeng. Cai Wanpeng's expression was somewhat unnatural as he received the gold coins. Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng's expression and knew what he was thinking. Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Do you feel that I shouldn't take the Village Chief's money?"
Cai Wanpeng didn't say anything. However, looking at his expression, it was clear that Zhao Hai was right. Zhao Hai looked at him and said, "This is the rule of the Soldier Spirit Continent. The situation there is different from the Wenji Continent. The Soldier Spirit Continent doesn't have a lot of academies. Even if there are academies, ordinary people can't enter them. For example, if a Plant Master wants to learn how to become a Plant Master, how to cultivate, and how to communicate with plants, there's only one place for them to go, and that is the Plant Master Association."
At this point, Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said, "In the Soldier Spirit Continent, no matter what your background is, as long as you are a Plant Master, then you can enter the Plant Master Association and learn how to become a Plant Master for free. However, this isn't enough. If your talent isn't good, then you can only become an Alchemist. If your talent is good and you become a Plant Master, then you would need to spend a lot of time observing plants in the wild. This way, you wouldn't have the time to do anything else. Moreover, in most countries, Plant Masters don't have a stable income, so they need to earn their own money."
