"Not even the slightest possibility?"
Di Yi asked. He felt that with his methods, if he encountered the right five kinds of trees, it might not be impossible to combine them in reverse to produce a Five Tree.
"It's not entirely impossible, but even those Vermilion Bird Heavenly Gods of antiquity never managed it. Do you think you can?" the Fire Kui Ox said. "Let's put that aside. I like the look of you. If you really are interested in the Five Tree, I could point you toward another plant."
