Actually, the heavens wouldn't create things that lasted forever. The special skill of Spirit Root was to primally work on its own fruits that wouldn't rot. If the fruits were eaten by other beings, they became energy of the beings. If not, they would fall to the ground and be converted into the spiritual qi of the world because of the Spirit Root!
It was such a weird and magical existence. There was an enormous spiritual qi around the tree. The air was almost immobile around the qi so that no spiritual qi would spread out. Otherwise, the spiritual paste would spread qi in the air for sure. However, the special inner environment kept it from happening! It was such a miracle!
Will catch up tomorrow! 5 chapters that were left from last week will be posted. Then on the weekend, we will have 5 and 5 for this week's releases.
