Chapter 98 The Purification Tree is an absolute treasure; plans are underway to name and own the was
Guan Yunzhou took a bite. The flesh was soft and sweet with a hint of coolness, much like the ice cream cake that Mo Li had given them before. This was exactly the kind of flavor he liked.
Seeing her squint her eyes in enjoyment, Mo Li smiled and said, "It looks like it tastes good. The fruit seems to be different from the seed. After it ripens, it will be wrapped in leaves to preserve it. Then we can just look for those curled-up leaves."
Before picking the fruit, Mo Li placed her hand on the tree trunk again. This time, she used her special ability to let the alluring vines reach inside to obtain information about the purifying tree.
With a tree age of five thousand years, it is indeed called the Purification Tree. She really got the name right by accident. It has super vitality and purification function, and can purify the surrounding environment, air, soil and so on. The plants and animals that grow around it are of high quality and have a particularly tenacious life.
The seeds can sprout into new purification trees. In addition to their excellent taste, the fruits contain super vitality and purification power, which have a strong amplifying effect on superpowered individuals. Purifiers can directly improve their superpower level after consuming them.
Consuming the contracted purifying beast along with the essence of the tree can unleash its hidden potential, directly boosting the purifier's rank by one.
Besides, the Purifying Tree is a treasure from top to bottom. Its texture, leaves, and fruits all have super healing properties. In particular, the concentrated wood essence and the fruits it bears can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded.
The prerequisite is that the purification tree must be over a thousand years old, and only purification trees over three thousand years old will flower and bear fruit, with a cycle of two thousand years.
Upon receiving this information, Mo Li couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that her luck was too good. It would take five thousand years to eat the fruit, and even the highest-level interstellar ability users didn't have that kind of lifespan.
Fortunately, the timing of her time travel was just right. Sometimes, you can only know whether something is a blessing or a curse by experiencing it. She felt that being stranded on this desolate planet was truly a blessing for her.
Mo Li then transformed into a busy picking girl, her hands never stopping. It wasn't that she couldn't do it because of her superpower, but because she liked the feeling of getting a great harvest. She didn't forget to share the information she had obtained about the purification tree with Guan Yunzhou.
Even he, who rarely showed any emotion, couldn't help but marvel at her true feelings. If the two of them weren't currently climbing the tree trunk like two monkeys, he would have definitely hugged her and given her a proper kiss.
"Ye Zixuan is right. You are truly a treasure. Marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life."
"You should thank the AI."
"Yes, that means we are indeed a perfect match. The AI's big data is very accurate."
"Hehe, let's keep picking fruit. Ah, this tree is really too big. It doesn't feel like climbing a tree at all, but more like climbing a mountain. Does that mean there are a lot of fruits? I feel like I've struck it rich."
"Madam's feeling was right, it really has made a fortune. If such a fruit were put into the auction house in the core area of the capital star, the starting price would be ten million star coins, and the final price would be at least one billion star coins."
"So valuable, haha, I'm rich, I'm rich! Are there countless interstellar coins hanging on this tree? Pick one and it'll be worth a billion. I've picked so many already, I might as well start counting now."
"You really want to go and film it?"
"Taking a few photos is fine, don't you think? We should know how to share, we can't keep good things to ourselves."
Guan Yunzhou smiled indulgently at her greedy little face and didn't expose her. Anyway, if the tree was picked clean, there would be tens of thousands of fruits. It would be worth it to take out a few to trade and earn some interstellar coins to make her smile.
“It looks like a lot, but the key is that it will be another two thousand years before it flowers, bears fruit, and matures. I don’t know how many bones will be buried by the river of time. We can’t wait. This is not enough to eat. No, I have to think of a way. We can’t wait two thousand years.”
Inside the space, Butterfly Dance was already holding a large fruit, eating it elegantly in small bites, and not forgetting to reply to Mo Li in a moment: "Leave this to me, I guarantee that next year Master will be able to eat such sweet and soft purification fruit."
"Thank you for your hard work, Butterfly Dance. Remember to plant the seeds you just collected. You can then transplant them into the purification trees later."
"The little elves are already busy sowing seeds."
"Okay, let them go to the orchard and pick fruit to eat on their own later."
"Okay, they'll be overjoyed if they find out."
After exchanging words with Diewu, Moli continued picking purification fruits, but stopped after picking half of them, because it would get dark soon, and she and Guan Yunzhou had other things to do.
The remaining half could only be obtained through supernatural abilities. Just as all the fruits were picked, the branches and leaves of the purification tree trembled, scattering specks of pure green light. Mo Li immediately collected these specks into his spatial storage.
The next instant, the joyful voice of Butterfly Dance echoed in my mind: "Ah, ah, Master, you're so kind! This is the life starlight that we elves need most to grow and improve our skills!"
"Since it works, you can use it."
"Yes, yes, this gives us even more confidence in stimulating the growth of the purification tree."
Mo Li patted the trunk of the Purification Tree: "You shouldn't be called the Purification Tree, you should be called the Blessing Tree. Just shake your branches and leaves, and you'll find either the essence of wood or the starlight of life. Tell me, what other surprises do you have that I don't know about?"
As she spoke, her gaze suddenly shifted downwards, landing on its roots and the soil where it had taken root. Just as she squatted down, Guan Yunzhou stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mo Li scooped up a handful of damp soil, held it to her nose, and sniffed it. The soil was normal, carrying a natural earthy fragrance, completely free of the rotten smell that comes from being contaminated by the violent factors.
Looking at the color, it's a normal earthy color, not black. Although it's moist, it feels somewhat loose when you rub it between your fingers, unlike when it's been contaminated and becomes too sticky. When you rub it, there are thick strands of black substance stuck between the soil, which looks rather disgusting.
"Look, the soil here is so natural. And look at the flowers and grass growing around this purifying tree. They are so tender and vibrant, clearly grown from fertile soil."
Guan Yunzhou immediately understood what she meant, and then he heard Mo Li say with a smile, "So, this place is really suitable for us to build our own exclusive home, don't you think?"
“I think it’s very feasible. Madam, leave it to me. I’ll go back and handle all the formalities for the ownership of this planet.”
Imperial law stipulates that if a private individual discovers a new planet that has not been registered or marked on the AI, especially an undeveloped wasteland, the permanent ownership of that planet will belong to its first discoverer upon payment of one billion interstellar coins.
At the same time, based on the AI's assessment of its development prospects, the annual tax revenue will be determined. Generally, no one will personally set foot on such a barren planet to conduct surveys and assessments. Instead, the AI will conduct a comprehensive assessment based on data from other similar planets in the big data. The annual tax revenue will likely be between one hundred million and three hundred million interstellar coins, and will not exceed that.
After listening to Guan Yunzhou's explanation, Mo Li didn't think much of it. Paying taxes is a normal thing. She was very confident that as long as the development was carried out according to her plan, the so-called annual tax payment would be nothing.
"That's no problem at all. We just need to make all the necessary preparations for developing the planet. This will be our base camp, our real home."
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
"I promise I won't let you down."
