The Man's Decree

Jared stood silently before the trove tree in Victor’s backyard. It looked very ordinary, and even though people often passed by the yard, no one ever cared to take a second look at the tree.

The glint in Jared’s eyes, however, was of absolute envy. After all, the trove tree had grown while absorbing celestial energy and was now practically bursting with it.

Oh, my… If I could absorb every last drop of celestial energy from this tree, I might just be able to break through Body Fusion Realm! There’s spiritual energy everywhere in this Ethereal Realm, but pure celestial energy is as scarce as a hen’s teeth. In any case, using celestial energy for my cultivation would be way faster than using spiritual energy!

With that, Jared took a deep breath. Ah… The trove tree is surrounded by an arcane array to keep its celestial energy from leaking. That said, an opening must’ve appeared, which allowed me to pick up on the slight energy traces. Otherwise, I’d never have paid any attention to this plain-looking tree!
