Chapter 3330Jared 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!
Just then, Hamish and Victor walked into the yard. “This tree of mine was transplanted from Mount
Crimson. When I first discovered it, a skeleton was buried underneath, and it most likely belonged to an
immortal who died during the Celestial Battle. The tree then grew by absorbing the dead immortal’s
celestial energy. which explains why it’s filled with so much energy now…” the latter explained.
Since Jared already knew the trove tree’s uniqueness, Victor realized there was no longer a need to
hide its origins.
After hearing it, Hamish turned green with envy. “You have amazing luck, Victor.
I’ve walked through Mount Crimson many times, yet I’ve never chanced upon a treasure like this or
even a celestial beast.” “Celestial beast, huh…” Victor muttered with a smile. “You’d better not run intoone if you don’t want to be eaten. Given your abilities, you won’t be able to take them on.” “Mr.
Jablonski, can I use something else in exchange for your tree?” Jared asked. Oh, I really want the
tree… I want to absorb all of its celestial energy!
Victor shook his head. “No. There’s nothing I’ll exchange it for. I’d have given you the tree if you
managed to cure my niece. Alas, she has already recovered, so there’s no way you’ll get your hands
on it.” A smile tugged at Jared’s lips. “Don’t say that. For all you know, I might still have a chance…” “I
suggest you drop the idea of stealing my tree.
You don’t have that capability, nor would you be able to leave Salinsburgh City, Victor snapped,
thinking Jared was planning to abscond with the trove tree.
novelbin“I, Jared Chance, have never been one to resort to such underhanded means.
When the time comes, you’ll be offering me the tree willingly,” Jared said before returning to his room to
rest.
“Hmph. How arrogant…” Victor scoffed, not at all caring about Jared.
This punk is just a Body Fusion Realm cultivator and a junior alchemist. If it weren’t for Hamish, I’d
never have let him stay at my place!
The next day, Hyrum concocted a pill and sent it directly to the Jablonski residence.
Filled with utter respect for the man, Atlas personally welcomed him.
“I made this pill overnight, Mr. Jablonski,” Hyrum said as he handed Atlas a black pill. “You may give it
to Ms. Jablonski. Once she has consumed three of my pills in succession, I guarantee she will be fully
cured.” Carefully accepting the pill, Atlas beamed with joy. “You’re truly impressive, Mr.Goeckner. I can’t believe you managed to concoct this pill so quickly,” he praised. “Sadly, there aren’t
many alchemists of your caliber in Ethereal Realm.
Most of them are nothing but charlatans! Just yesterday, a young man dropped by and claimed to be
an alchemist. However, he kept insisting that Effie was poisoned and that you’re a Demonic Cultivator,
Mr. Goeckner. He even said there was a demonic aura inside Effie. How ridiculous!”
