Under the influence of the five-needle pine and the spiritual qi, Li Xiao and the disciples continued to comprehend new principles of the Great Dao to promote the advancement of their cultivation.
Meanwhile, the five-needle pine behind Li Xiao was also changing unknowingly…
Li Xiao was preaching under the Five-Needle Pine, not only for the disciples, but also for the Five-Needle Pine.
If he were to preach to an ordinary pine tree, it would be like playing the lute to a cow. People would definitely say that this person was crazy.
However, the effect was completely different when it came to preaching on innate spiritual roots.
Innate spiritual roots were spiritual objects. When Li Xiao talked about the 3,000 Great Dao, the Five-Needle Pine seemed to not move. However, it was already affected by the Great Dao that Li Xiao talked about. It was absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and growing continuously.
It was not the growth of the branches and leaves. From the surface, no growth could be seen.
The real change was in the soil under Li Xiao and Bai Suzhen's feet!
As Li Xiao's lecture deepened, the spirit roots under the Five-Needle Pine began to spread rapidly, taking root and extending in the soil.
First, it took root vertically. Then, it began to take root horizontally. Without anyone noticing, it had already extended the range of its roots beyond Xiaoyao Mountain!
Silently, the spirit root of the Five-Needle Pine spread wildly underground, one mile, ten miles, a hundred miles…
In the end, they arrived at Zhenyuanzi's Longevity Mountain!
Bai Suzhen, the black bear demon, and the others didn't notice this at all. They were still immersed in Li Xiao's Dao.
Longevity Mountain was the territory of Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of Earthly Immortals. His Taoist temple, Wuzhuang Taoist Temple, was on this mountain.
Zhenyuanzi was a well-known figure in the Three Realms. Even Guan Yin Bodhisattva had to respect him because he had a treasure tree.
This treasure tree grew in Wuzhuang Taoist Temple and was watched over by his two doormen, Qingfeng Mingyue.
Zhenyuanzi's supernatural power was very strong, especially his World in the Sleeve, which could seal all things. Even the gods in the sky could not do anything to him.
As for Wuzhuang Taoist Temple, although there were only two doormen guarding it, no one could get in. Zhenyuanzi treated the Ginseng Fruit Tree as a treasure. He couldn't even see the Ginseng Fruit Tree, let alone steal it.
However, the roots of the Five-Needle Pine spread from the ground, and Zhenyuanzi in Wuzhuang Taoist Temple was unaware of it.
The Five-Needle Pine and the Ginseng Fruit Tree were both innate spiritual roots. They were both things with spiritual energy and could attract each other.
The Ginseng Fruit Tree could be considered a neighbor of the Five-Needle Pine.
The roots of the Five-Needle Pine sensed the Spiritual Qi from the Ginseng Fruit Tree and followed the Spiritual Qi to Zhenyuanzi's Longevity Mountain.
The roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree sensed it, and the roots that were buried deep underground actually started to grow.
The Five-Needle Pine's roots and the Ginseng Fruit Tree's roots attracted each other with spiritual energy, and in the end, they actually connected together!
The two spiritual roots from different individuals began to intertwine with each other. Under the ground and in the soil, they quietly intertwined with each other and complemented each other, allowing different spiritual qi to drift in different roots.
The Ginseng Fruit Tree was an innate spiritual root of a higher level than the Five-Needle Pine. The aura contained within was also more powerful. It complemented the spiritual aura of the Five-Needle Pine and had a huge complementary effect!
While they were entangled, the Five-Needle Pine's roots absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy from the Ginseng Fruit Tree. The spiritual energy traveled hundreds of miles along the Five-Needle Pine's roots, all the way back to Xiaoyao Mountain.
The trunk of the Five-Needle Pine had completely absorbed the spiritual energy from the Ginseng Fruit Tree, and it actually produced an unexpected change.
Red Boy was staring at the top of the Five-Needle Pine tree in a daze when he suddenly exclaimed,""Wow…Look!"
The others were still listening intently to Li Xiao's sermon. Red Boy's sudden scream shocked everyone.
"Junior Brother, what happened?" The black bear demon was the first to open his eyes as he asked Red Boy.
"Did you see anything?" Bai Suzhen opened her eyes and asked.
Zhao Xiaogu and Jade-faced Fox had been too engrossed in listening to the story earlier. They did not know what was happening and were confused.
Li Xiao was not surprised at all. He slowly opened his eyes, turned around, and said,"I really didn't expect this…"
Red Boy seemed to have discovered a shocking secret as he was extremely excited. He pointed at the Five-Needle Pine and shouted,""Over there, look, look over there!”
Everyone followed his finger and saw five fruit-like things hanging on the five-needle pine.
These five fruits were only the size of apples and were all green. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to tell.
However, when Red Boy noticed the five fruits, they were only the size of plums.
"Look, these fruits are getting bigger!”Red Boy continued shouting.
" It's really…" Zhao Xiaogu shouted.
The five fruits were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The five fruits that were the size of apples just now had grown a size larger in the blink of an eye.
" The color is also different…" Red Boy exclaimed again.
The five fruits were no longer green, but had turned into five different colors. They looked colorful, but they did not match the green color of the Five-Needle Pine.
The fruit was no longer growing bigger, only its color was changing. The red and yellow became darker and darker, which also meant that the fruit was getting more and more mature.
"Master, what fruit is this? Why is it so beautiful? It's really magical!”Red Boy asked Li Xiao.
The others were also curious. This was the first time they had seen an Innate Spiritual Root grow up, and it was also the first time they had seen an Innate Spiritual Root grow.
The result of a five-needle pine was probably something that no one had seen before. Today, Li Xiao and the others really had a feast for their eyes.
Before Li Xiao could reply, the Five-Needle Pine suddenly released countless brilliant lights. The seven-colored lights bloomed in all directions, illuminating the entire Five-Needle Pine as if the entire tree was emitting colorful lights.
The five fruits were covered in light, and the shadows of the fruits could not be seen. All that could be seen was the dazzling light.
"Master, what fruit is this?”Red Boy said as he covered his eyes with his hands.
He had never seen a fruit that could emit light like the sun!
" This is the Five Elements Spirit Fruit." Li Xiao stared at the five fruits and slowly said.
"Five Elements Spirit Fruit? What kind of fruit is that?”Red Boy was still curious as he asked.
"The fruits of the Five-Needle Pine are the five fruits you see. They contain the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. They also represent the five elements of the Great Dao. Look at the golden fruit, it contains the metal element. That red fruit contains the fire element…The essence of the Five-Needle Pine is all contained in these five fruits.”Li Xiao continued to introduce them slowly.
"I see, I see!" Red Boy shouted with interest.
