    Moreover, since it’s possible to go from the early Foundation Establishment to the middle stage, then can one also advance from the middle stage to thete stage?!


    Or even that, proceed in one step, to the perfection of Foundation Establishment?


    The more he thought, the more he wanted it.


    Compared to this “Everlife Tree Fruit”, all other magic artifacts seem meaningless.


    The next day.


    He visited E Yun again, inquiring about details of this “Everlife Tree Fruit”.


    “You are talking about this. I guess if you have seen the current circumstance of Brother Yue, you would not want it. Coincidentally, he is also in Divine Wood City. Let’s go visit him.”


    E Yun didn’t waste any words and took Chen Mobai directly to the courtyard next door.


    A youthful-looking youth with white hair was leisurely drinking tea on a bamboo chair. In his yard, Chen Mobai saw a variety of talisman papers, talisman ink, and some broken magic artifacts, and even a pill furnace.


    “Oh, why do I have the honor of Junior Brother’s visit today?”


    This young man, leaving aside his youthful appearance and behavior, Chen Mobai could still sense an aging aura from him.


    “This is the current chief disciple of our sect, I brought him to visit you.”


    E Yun introduced Chen Mobai, then Yue Zutao got two chairs from inside his house, indicating them to sit.


    “I know him, he’s about to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm, isn’t he? So you brought him here to see the consequence.”


    Brother Yue mocked himself a bit. His name was Yue Zutao. Although he was not even sixty years old in reality, his body was already a hundred years old in terms of biological age.


    “What happened?”


    Chen Mobai was shocked when he palpated Yue Zutao’s bone age at his signal.


    “The Everlife Tree Fruit, its effects are amazing, but in truth, it converts your lifespan into realm and power.”


    “Before I took it I didn’t know, I thought I had received an extraordinary opportunity. But these past twenty years, I found that not only was I unable to break through the realm, but my lifespan has been reduced by a good forty years.”


    “To warn the junior brothers and sisters whoe after, every time a new junior brother or sister is about to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm, I let them feel my bone age, advising them not to use the Everlife Tree Fruit unless absolutely necessary.”


    After Yue Zutao had spoken, Chen Mobai finally understood.


    This tree fruit, in addition to consuming one’s lifespan, also stagnates the user’s realm advancement.


    In the past twenty years, Yue Zutao had tried every means, taken countless pills, but except for a slight increase in spiritual power, he could never break through to thete Foundation Establishment stage. It was as if he was stuck at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.


    “This matter had even rmed Elder Zhou, and he took me to Back to Sky Valley for medical consultation. Master Yan said that after I had consumed the fruit which took forty years of my lifespan, it was equivalent to overnight gaining forty years of cultivation, breaking through the realm.”


    “After that, in addition to paying forty years of lifespan, I also need to stay in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment for forty years. Only then could the bottleneck to thete stage of the Foundation Establishment be broken.”


    “No matter what pill I take to increase my cultivation level, within the forty years after consuming the fruit, I could only at most advance to the peak of Foundation Establishment stage unless I consume a Spiritual Object of a higher grade than the Everlife Tree Fruit to break the fruit’s effects.”


    Upon uttering this, Yue Zutao looked helpless. Divine wood was a Rank-4 spirit tree; thus, its fruit was naturally also Rank-4. It already stood at the top tier of spiritual objects in the Eastern Wastnd.


    Not to mention whether there was a Rank-5 spiritual object that could counteract the fruit’s side effects, even if there was, let alone Yue Zutao, even the Divine Wood Sect might not have the resources to acquire it.


    That’s why he stopped cultivating these years and was engrossed in Spirit nting, Talisman Preparation, Pill Refining, Artifact Refining, etc.


    He achieved some sess and is now the Spirit nt Master with the highest sess rate in refining Rank-2 tree seeds within the sect.


    As the three were chatting, a new visitor arrived..
