Cosmic Trading System

One tree trunk spiraled to the left and the other to the right, it was quite obvious, quite natural.

"There's indeed some mystery to this..."

Lin Yun silently nodded in agreement.

Could this be the reason that these two large trees had acquired a spiritual essence?

If a tree developed spirituality, did it become a spirit?

A tree spirit? A tree demon?

Lin Yun searched the Cosmic Trading System. In this world, tree demons indeed existed, but until they reached a certain level, tree demons had little power and were even considered treasures in the eyes of some cultivators.

"Should I release my mental strength into my palm, press my palm on the spiritual object, and then use the Cosmic Trading System to absorb it?"

Lin Yun began to search for a way to absorb the spirit from these spiritual objects and soon found one.

The spiritual objects were the two large tree and the statue in the temple, which he obviously could not absorb.

However, the most important part was the spirit within the spiritual objects. If he was able to absorb these three spirits, that would be enough.

With these three spirits, he could make three more spiritual objects at any time.

This was simple.

Very quickly, Lin Yun began following this method.

From the outside, it looked like Lin Yun was merely touching the large tree - something many people who came here did. The tour guide didn't pay him any attention and continued narrating one story after another.

Even if Lin Yun absorbed the spirit born from this tree, it wouldn't affect the growth of the tree.

So, at this moment, Lin Yun did not feel guilty about what he was doing.

Soon, Lin Yun's mental strength leveled with a white light cluster in the center of the tree, which should be the tree's spirit.

"Don't... don't absorb me..."

Just as Lin Yun was about to absorb this white light cluster from the tree into the trading space, a frightened childish voice echoed out.

Lin Yun was taken aback.

His hand trembled, and the suction force from the Cosmic Trading System immediately disappeared.

Although Lin Yun now knew that there were many mystical beings in this world, he had never encountered such a case.

How could he not be shocked by this sudden voice?

Don't absorb him?

He was absorbing the white light cluster from the tree. Could it be that it was the one speaking?

This tree... had it already become a demon?

From the information he'd searched earlier, although some trees could become spirits or even demons, very few of them could talk. Or perhaps they were unique cases with high spirituality or rank.

Lin Yun's mind was spinning rapidly.

It probably wasn't due to high rank.

Otherwise, he might not have been a match for the tree.

Then it must be the first scenario. Because of some special circumstances, the spirit born from this tree had extremely high spirituality.

"Are you this white light cluster?"

Lin Yun used his mental strength to gather information.

"Yes, it's me. Please don't absorb me, I... I don't want to die... sob sob..." a young, sobbing voice rang out.

Lin Yun was silent.

The spirituality of this white light cluster was too high, wasn't it?

"I never said I wanted to kill you..." Lin Yun thought for a moment and replied.

"I... I don't want to leave this place either... I still need to rely on the spiritual energy here to grow. I am still very young, please take me away when I have grown a bit more... sob sob," the young voice ceased crying and continued in a loud and clear voice.

"Uh..." Lin Yun didn't know what to say.

It was kind of funny.

The spirituality of this white light cluster was truly out of the ordinary.

Ordinary spiritual entities could not express such words.

"Alright then, I'll go over and absorb the spirit from the other tree..." Lin Yun suggested tentatively.

"No, don't absorb the spirit from that tree either! Sob sob, it is Little Blue, it is my good friend..." as expected, the innocent voice protested again, crying once more.

"Brother, please don't absorb me... sob sob..." From the direction of the other tree, another young voice echoed out, also crying.

The previous innocent voice was a boy's and this one was a girl's.

Both sounded around five or six years old.

Both trees had high spirituality.

"Then what should I absorb? Surely, I can't have come all this way for nothing," Lin Yun said amusingly.

"You can absorb the spirit on the statue..." At this moment, the boy's voice spoke up timidly.

"The spirit on the statue? Isn't it your friend?" Lin Yun asked curiously.

"It only has basic spirituality and no consciousness... Brother, are you wanting to obtain spiritual energy? You can also absorb most of the spiritual energy from Little White and me, just leave a little bit for us to survive. We can absorb more spiritual energy later and let you absorb it again..." the girl's voice whispered.

"This statue has spirituality but no consciousness?" Lin Yun looked at the statue in the temple and expressed his surprise.

After seeing two spiritual items with such high spirituality, he had thought that the spirituality of all three items here would be very high.

Unexpectedly, the spiritual item inside the statue did not have consciousness.

While talking, Lin Yun walked closer.

He placed his palm gently on the bottom of the statue and released his mental strength.

A larger white light cluster appeared in the center of the statue, containing even more spiritual energy.

However, no voice was heard.

"It seems as those two tree spirits mentioned, this statue only has spirituality but no consciousness..." Stay updated with m-v l|e'm,p y r

Lin Yun thought to himself.

Since it was so, he decided to first absorb the spirit from the statue.

He triggered the capability of the Cosmic Trading System and an invisible suction force was created instantly, starting to absorb the spirit in the statue.

In just about ten seconds, Lin Yun had absorbed the spirit from the statue into the trading space.

"Boom--"

Without the statue to anchor to and having entered the special place known as the trading space, the white light cluster exploded instantly. A massive amount of pure spiritual energy burst out, and the amount of Spirit Energy Points on the Cosmic Trading System started to increase rapidly.

It was increasing by dozens of points per second.

In just two or three seconds, it had increased by a spirit crystal.

The amount of spiritual energy points and spirit crystals continued to increase.

"So much spiritual energy..."

Lin Yun was secretly surprised.

He had known this would happen, but he hadn't anticipated that this white light cluster contained so much spiritual energy.

However, he thought about it carefully.

This statue had been at least a few decades old.

He had no idea when it had developed spirituality, but it was likely that it had gathered faith for many years.

Although not many people visited Sanqing Palace regularly, there were still some who came to offer incense on the first and fifteenth of each month. These people had high devotion. Moreover, the place was packed with people offering incense every year during the free festivals.

After accumulating over many years, it wasn't surprising that it possessed so much spiritual energy.

One minute later, the number of spirit crystals on the Cosmic Trading System had increased by more than forty, and the number was still increasing, with the increment rate growing faster.

The Cosmic Trading Space was filled with spiritual energy, and the Cosmic Trading System was frantically refining it.

Although this spiritual energy was fairly pure, it only had a very pure attribute and still needed refining.

Meanwhile, Xia Qingqing, Lin Duoer, and Zhong Ling were running around, looking with curiosity.

Lin Yun was slowly circling near the temple.

All the bodyguards were scattered nearby, watching their surroundings.

Their duty caused them to stay vigilant for the safety of their employer, even in a spacious place with very few people.
