Maya Howards charged into the room when she heard Alex Rockefeller’s voice.
She was equally shocked by what she saw. Her mouth and eyes were wide open, and
she had a look of disbelief on her face.
All she could see was that Alex’s room was full of vibrant, green leaves and vines, even
on his bed. It looked like a scene from The Wizard of Oz.
“This… What happened? Why are there so many vines?”
“I don’t know either. It looks like my Devil’s ivy.”
Alex pushed aside the crisscrossing vines in front of him and walked further into the
room. Indeed, he eventually saw that these vines all came from a pot on the balcony.
The problem was that the pot of Devil’s ivy still looked very normal last night… In fact, it
also seemed normal this morning.
Surprisingly, this strange occurrence only happened
after half a day passed.
Maya followed behind and grabbed Alex’s arm. “Could the Devil’s ivy have become a
spirit?” she asked.
Alex was speechless for a while.

If the Devil’s ivy could become a spirit, did that mean a carrot could become a god too?
The scene that unfolded before them, however, was indeed bizarre, and there was no
way to explain how it happened.
“Ahh, I remember now,” Alex cried out
“What did you remember?” Maya asked.
“It’s a chunk of soil,” Alex said.
Last night, he had placed a chunk of soil that contained a special essence into the pot.
Aside from that, nothing else unusual happened.
“What kind of soil?” Maya asked.
Since Maya was part of the family, Alex had no reason to keep secrets from her. Hence,
he told her where the soil came from.
“A funerary object stolen by tomb raiders, you say? That sounds awfully amazing…
Could this be some sort of divine soil?” Maya asked with glimmering eyes.
Alex began searching for something in the Ultimate Book of Medicine.
“I think I may have found out what it is. This is perhaps a chunk of spiritual soil,” Alex
said between a laugh.
“What’s spiritual soil?” quizzed Maya.
“Rumor has it that spiritual soil is a type of heavenly treasure that can absorb the
essence between heaven and earth, which would then breed spiritual herbs. Legend
has it that some rare and precious medicine can only be cultivated using spiritual soil.
Meanwhile, if normal spiritual herbs were planted in spiritual soil, its growth rate would
be enhanced. In fact, such herbs
would grow even better than if planted anywhere else,” Alex explained.
Maya listened in great awe.
“Is what you say true? Does such a magical thing exist?” Maya asked.
“The world is big, and there are many strange things in it. Many things do exist, even if
we’ve never seen them before. We’ll find out if it’s actually spiritual soil through an
experiment,” Alex said while pulling the Devil’s ivy out of the pot.
After removing the plant, the chunk of sticky spiritual soil was still fully intact. None of it
