"Could the material Jiao Xiuyuan used to shape his avatar come from Ruo Mu?"
A thought struck Li Fan as he gripped the wilted branch of Ruo Mu in his hand, studying it closely.
After a while, he shook his head thoughtfully.
"It's similar, yet different. As if they share the same origin, but there's a clear distinction."
"Considering the Wood Taoist's deep-seated loathing for cultivators, it's unlikely he would have traded with Jiao Xiuyuan."
"So this is…"
Before Li Fan's eyes, the scene of Ruo Mu being besieged by cultivators and its trunk cracking open with many branches falling from the sky flashed again.
"Perhaps, after these separated branches fell into the Xuanhuang World, they embarked on a completely new path."
The vitality of plant life is always remarkably resilient. Even ordinary plants often regrow from broken branches.
This goes double for an extraordinary being capable of producing the Fruit of Eternal Life like Ruo Mu.
