Internal Strife

After leaving Nine Bends City.

Linsey was constantly embroiled in troubles that seemed endless.

At this moment, Green Fir reminded him.

He then realized that the power in the secret realm was extremely similar to the Life Source Material.

For those who possess the Life Source Material, this is undoubtedly a very precious opportunity; careful observation will benefit their power development.

"Having a knowledgeable ' Old Grandpa ' by your side makes it much easier to seize opportunities."

Linsey sighed inwardly.

He readily agreed and immediately closed his eyes, carefully sensing the rich life force in the valley.

Seeing this, Green Fir placed her palm on the ground.

The merchant's operation was spearheaded by Ya Li Kun, who, like her, is Sixth Stage Awakened.

Even if they look down on the other party in terms of ability or knowledge.

However, in actual combat, Green Fir still adhered to the principle of caution, first conducting reconnaissance.

Using the lowest level of Essence, she manipulated the inorganic matter of the ground to integrate into her senses, slowly extending towards the valley ahead.

This power transcends the mist and travels across the water's surface.

Finally, on a small island in the center of the secret realm, Green Fir overheard a conversation.

"Ya Li Kun, how much more time are we going to waste here?"

"The plan has been underway for almost two months, and the entire forest is becoming increasingly restless and uneasy! If this continues, and we attract that wizard, our business will be ruined!"

"..."

"It's no use urging me."

"The sensers we hired have all had their brains burned out by the Forest's Wrath, so now we can only use this clumsy method to pinpoint their location bit by bit."

"..."

"Using such violent methods, problems are bound to arise; after all, this is a forest world."

"..."

"But neither you nor I can find a better way."

"Giving up our businesses here is nothing if we achieve our goals."

"..."

"It will take time to get an accurate answer."

"Since you're in such a hurry to leave, I can give you a rough guess."

"..."

"Normally, I would definitely bet on the latter. But with the prime commercial district seats in Platinum City, once this year's auction is over, the next one might be a long way off. Our chamber of commerce is already in a precarious position, so we must seize this opportunity and make sure it goes smoothly!"

"..."

There is no such thing as absolute perfection in the world.

"And think about it, those awakened ones we repelled have also discovered the existence of ley lines!"

"..."

"In short, my opinion is to stay here and get the most accurate information."

"The raging forest will help us eliminate our competitors!"

"..."

Green Fir frowned.

The sound contained a lot of complex information.

She tried hard to distinguish, and the result she confirmed was only one.

If businessmen have differing opinions, a little encouragement could cause them to fight amongst themselves!

"Um?"

Just then, Green Fir noticed the change around her.

She withdrew her hand and turned her head to look.

Linsey, who had just carefully sensed the power of the secret realm, was now slowly opening his eyes, and the Life Source Material within his body became even more active with this movement.

"The adjustment was very fast."

Green Fir slightly, then covered Linsey with the power of assimilation, helping him to conceal the fluctuations of the Essence energy.

Then she asked:

"Linsey, your Essence is about to advance, isn't it?"

"Almost there."

Linsey nodded, a hint of joy in her expression.

He mimicked the vibrant energy emanating from the secret realm, and his own abilities became more stable as a result.

Observe the inside of the body carefully.

His Life Source Material became even more vibrant.

Checking the Attribute Panel again, Linsey's Constitution increased by one point without any cost! "It seems I'm still a bit short of advancing..."

Linsey sighed.

Green Fir, however, was fully aware of this change and immediately provided an answer:

"From the Sprout Breaking Ground to the growth stage, it naturally needs to absorb external Essence to enhance its growth. If you go to Volcano City, with the knowledge of Master Yang Ye that has been passed down, you will definitely be able to be allocated a Life Fruit."

The Life Fruit?

Linsey had never heard of such a thing before.

Even when I was learning about the more basic Life Source Material from Anrui, I didn't get similar knowledge from him.

This should be a unique resource of Volcano City, specifically used to break through the level of Life Source Material.

Life Scholar rely on their skills and knowledge.

Indeed, it has been able to cultivate many precious items that cannot be found outside.

Linsey was thinking about the Life Source Material.

Green Fir, who was standing to the side, stood up and told Linsey what she had just heard:

"Linsey, I can sense that there are quite a few people inside."

"However, their conversation was fraught with conflict, and they disagreed with each other."

"We'd better find a way to incite infighting among them, and then turn it into a civil war, which would make it easier to take them all down!"

Green Fir began to analyze the situation, Linsey immediately had an idea.

He glanced at his luggage.

When encountering enemies in the previous secret realm.

He defeated Ya Li Kun's Stand and stole a Double Serpent Coin made by Ya Li Kun himself from the opponent! "Green Fir, I might have a way."

"I defeated a Stand of Ya Li Kun in the forest before..."

Linsey recounted the story in detail.

Upon hearing this, Green Fir's face immediately lit up with joy, and she came up with a follow-up idea. "Linsey, let's sneak over carefully."

"You can change your appearance, right? There shouldn't be any major limitations to that ability, right?"

Linsey nodded first, then shook her head. "There are basically no restrictions. But if it's to become a specific target, it's best to be someone I've met before."

Green Fir smiled:

"It's not anyone else, it's just that guy Kang Qi."

"Mr. Kang Qi?"

Linsey immediately realized what was happening.

He is that Sixth Stage Life Scholar from Lookout Point City.

Unlike the assertive Green Fir, the other party has a gentle personality and friendly relations with various forces.

With the strength of Sixth Stage cultivator, such a person would not be immediately attacked no matter where they appeared.

Green Fir continued, "Kang Qi has good relationships with many Awakened Ones. Even businessmen wouldn't harbor any ill will towards him. Now that I'm covering for you, those guys will have no chance of distinguishing you from the real person!"

Out of caution, Linsey inquired about Kang Qi's whereabouts, "Where is Mr. Kang Qi now? Won't walking in like this give me away in other ways?"

Green Fir shook her head slightly:

"Don't worry, he's taken over my job and is leading the team to Black Mountain World."

"This change was rather sudden. At least in Nine Bends City, no one except me knew his whereabouts."

After answering the questions, Green Fir began to plan. "We need to incite infighting among them, but we don't need to use overly harsh words."

"Just take this Double Serpent Coin in, make up a story, and these greedy guys will start causing chaos on their own..."
