The inscription left by this female Law God is mainly related to this tree, so it's understandable that she didn't elaborate on the others.

However, Vic has achieved his goal in coming here. He only needs to wait for the next full moon to harvest all the Soul Fruit. After developing two abilities to the Awakening state, he can try to break through the path to godhood. The rest of his cultivation path will be basically clear.

" God Level expert is no longer afraid of seawater and can even traverse the air. That mysterious man in black robes is indeed God Level expert. No wonder he gave me a feeling of being unable to resist. Is he one of the other six people I saw in the images on the Red Line?"

It's not surprising that Law God expert with a lifespan of two thousand years has survived to this day. Then the person on the other side who can communicate with them must be a powerhouse of the same level, right? Where have all these God Level experts gone? Have they all hidden themselves away like the mysterious black-robed man? Could Imu be one of them?

I thought I could finally live freely in this world, but now a God Level powerhouse has appeared. It seems that to truly live freely, one must reach God Level! This is my destiny!

Vic took a deep breath and moved to the central area where the female figure was carved in relief, examining it closely. This was a powerful Law God, yet it was asserted that she was no longer alive. This was quite normal; if she were truly alive, this place would probably have become her training ground, and Vic would have no role to play.

"If you were murdered, I will avenge you once I become Law God, so that the opportunity you left behind will not have been in vain! It's a pity that I don't know your name; only this relief remains as a trace of your existence!"

Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman who, even though it was just a relief, seemed to blend into nature, Vic said, "This is probably the unique aura that comes with comprehending the Laws of heaven and earth and becoming Law God."

Vic guessed that this stunning Forest Law God might have sensed that something bad was about to happen to her, which was why she left these words here. One reason was to leave the fruits of her labor to future generations, giving them the opportunity to become gods. The other reason was to leave a debt of gratitude, so that those who became gods through this opportunity could avenge her. Vic didn't like owing favors, but he would definitely avenge her when he had the ability.

Pulling his thoughts back, all Vic had to do now was wait. But in this secluded environment, there was nothing else to do besides cultivation. He couldn't just keep staring at the beautiful woman's relief. Vic wasn't like Duan Yu, who would be captivated by a statue. So he quickly calmed himself down and immersed himself in cultivation.

A month passed quickly. Vic was awakened by the tremors of the ground, the sound of the Soul Tree rising from the lake. Vic knew that the month was up and today was the day he would reap the rewards of his victory. He felt a surge of excitement as he waited for the Soul Tree to calm down again.

Vic was intimately familiar with the cycle of the Soul Tree's appearance, knowing how long it would take to fully emerge from the water and how long it would need to absorb the moonlight before dropping the Soul Fruit. Therefore, before the Soul Tree dropped its Soul Fruit, he drew his sword and chopped down the glowing sapling in the center of the circular space.

After storing the sapling in his Dimensional Ring, Vic quickly left the tree trunk and came to the outside world. At this time, countless ferocious beasts and Sea Kings roared and surged into the lake toward the Soul Tree. This time, the scale was far greater than in the past, perhaps because they also sensed that the Soul Tree was somewhat unusual today.

How could Vic possibly give away such a precious Soul Fruit to them? He immediately unleashed his Conqueror's Haki to its maximum, spreading it outwards in all directions. Blood-red Inazuma flickered and roared around the Soul Tree, creating a terrifying scene that made even the full moon in the sky lose its color.

All the ferocious beasts and Sea Kings seemed to be frozen in place; the weaker ones had already fainted in the lake, while the stronger ones dared not move, their fur standing on end as if facing a formidable enemy!

Ignoring the ferocious beasts, Vic quickly picked the Soul Fruit using Geppo. Because he had cut down the glowing sapling, the Soul Fruit had stopped falling, but the time it took for the Soul Tree to sink would not change. Therefore, Vic needed to store all the Soul Fruit into his Dimensional Ring in a short time.

After picking them for a moment, Vic simply drew his Blood Wither Dao Sword Qi and slashed out. Since the Soul Fruit were all hanging from a long vine, they were all at roughly the same height. With one slash, a large number of them fell. Vic's consciousness enveloped these Soul Fruit and instantly absorbed them into his Dimensional Space.

After several repetitions, there were very few Soul Fruit left hanging on the tree. At this point, the Soul Tree began to sink. The sight made the ferocious beasts' eyes bloodshot, but they still dared not move.

It was as if his own wife and daughter were being violated right before his eyes. The expanse of white flesh, the heartbreaking screams, all the ways he would never have used himself—all of it was done to them. And he had a gun pointed at his head. No matter how much he hated, how angry, or how unwilling he was, he dared not make a move. He could only watch helplessly as Vic picked the last hanging Soul Fruit and floated away.

After picking the Soul Fruit, Vic did not leave the island immediately. It was already evening, and there was no need to rush. He wanted to go back to the East Blue to see his old friends. Standing on the top of a large tree, Vic released his Observation Haki and sensed the place where the stags were gathered. He used Geppo to fly over and quickly kidnapped several adult stags.

Vic has eaten many good things over the years, but the quagga meat on this island is still the best. However, there are only so many quagga on the island, and they are also preyed upon by other ferocious beasts. Since there are not many, he can't eat as much as he wants. He only eats one when he comes here on the night of the full moon.

However, he would also use the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to stimulate the mating of those zebras, allowing them to reproduce more offspring. Now that there were no more Soul Fruit on the Soul Tree, Vic probably wouldn't be coming here anytime soon, so he caught a few more to keep for later consumption.

The next day, Vic ate a Soul Fruit and felt refreshed. The Soul Fruit tasted excellent and contained a large amount of Primal Spirit, which could also enhance mental strength, so it naturally made him feel refreshed.

Then Vic immediately began practicing Armament Haki. He couldn't waste the enormous amount of Primal Spirit within the Soul Fruit. In the past, Soul Fruit Soul Fruit scarce, but every time he ate one, he would try his best to convert the Primal Spirit within into Haki, which was much faster than when he usually cultivated.

Back then, Vic often lamented how wonderful it would be if there were more of these fruits, as his Haki speed would rise to another level. Now, his lament has become a reality. The Soul Fruit has achieved freedom, and he can go to Raijin Island to eat Soul Fruit and cultivate at the same time. His speed will definitely be incredibly fast!

While practicing Armament Haki, Vic used Geppo to leave the Mystery Island and flew towards the East Blue. His Geppo had already advanced, so he naturally became more and more proficient with it, and soon he left the Calm Belt.
