Once everything was organized, he took out a box made of an unknown material that looked quite old, its carved patterns faded with time. This was the box that contained the Little Sapling he had acquired. According to Huo Lou and Elder Zhu, the tree had been purchased from a martial artist who, after some research, confirmed that the small Tree had not been tampered with. The martial artist was merely at the Refining Spirit Realm and had intended to venture into the Lava Sea for opportunities. However, due to his limited strength, he could not delve deeply and accidentally stumbled into a cave where he found the box and a Jade Tablet. Seeing the ancient-looking box, he brought it out, originally intending to have Huo Lou identify what it was and how to open it. Yet, after everyone examined it, they were left perplexed. Elder Zhu was present at that time as well and found the box intriguing; after some haggling, he eventually bought it for eight ingots of silver.
Looking at the box and the Jade Tablet on the table, Mo Wen decided to examine the contents of the Jade Tablet first. He was curious about what was written on it that even someone like Elder Zhu could not comprehend. He pressed the Jade Tablet against his forehead, his breathing growing heavier as excitement filled his face. However, as he began to read the information, his initially fiery enthusiasm gradually cooled until he felt a chilling despair, his expression turning more sorrowful than tears could convey.
Setting down the Jade Tablet, he rubbed his forehead. After some deciphering, he could barely grasp its meaning. The text was an ancient and obscure script even older than Yin Wen, which could be said to have evolved from this very script. Elder Zhu had not misled him; there were very few who understood Yin Wen. If it weren't for the knowledge imparted by Old Lu, he would have found these characters as incomprehensible as ghostly symbols. It was no surprise that Elder Zhu could not understand them.
What delighted Mo Wen was that since this object recorded ancient texts, it must be something rare. Moreover, the origins of this Little Sapling were indeed extraordinary; if it were to grow, it would undoubtedly become a world-renowned Treasure. It possessed calming properties that would facilitate deeper states of cultivation when aided by this tree. Of course, its primary function was to purify the Divine Source and produce beneficial effects.
According to the information in the Jade Tablet, this tree was named Xiu and was a divine wood. However, despite having read numerous texts, Mo Wen had never heard of this tree before. The reason for his troubled expression wasn't merely ignorance about its nature but rather its placement; this tree had originally been just a seed. If Mo Wen had received a seed, it would have been easy to handle, but now it had already sprouted.
The preservation of its seeds required top-grade divine materials; otherwise, they would wither away. Carefully examining the box again, he noticed traces of a sealed Magic Circle. The circle had already become ineffective; although Mo Wen wasn't an expert in Magic Circles, given the current situation, it seemed that the circle had failed on its own rather than being forcefully broken. The martial artist must have been unable to open the box because the circle hadn't completely lost its power at that time. As for how Elder Zhu managed to open it, it was simply because the circle had fully failed. However, if not for this failure, Mo Wen wouldn't have had the ability to open the box either; there was no information in the Jade Tablet about how to do so.
Gently placing the box back on the table, he opened it again. He had already seen what was inside previously: half a box of white crystalline powder with the Xiu sapling growing within it. Looking at the Little Sapling, Mo Wen sighed and closed the box again; he still hadn't figured out how to deal with this sapling.
