Chapter 3594: What is it?

This orb was woven from emerald green vines, appearing radiant and glistening. The mass of tree vines, upon seeing Crown Prince Mo extract this vine orb from within its tangles, immediately grew agitated. It shook countless tendrils, launching an attack on Crown Prince Mo. At this point, it no longer cared about the small tree sphere's branch twisting and turning in mid-air to stop it. This fragment of the tree seed acted as if its tail had been stepped on, flailing wildly and assaulting Mo Lian. Even the small tree sphere's branch couldn't stop this suddenly frenzied little fellow.

Mo Lian, momentarily stunned, quickly reached out to block the frantically attacking vines, shifting back a few steps. He lowered his head to examine the small green vine orb in his hand. The outer layer of this vine orb was wrapped in layers of vine branches, making it impossible to see what was inside. Yet, this tiny vine orb seemed to agitate this tree seed fragment so much that it looked ready to fight him to the death!

Mo Lian, rather speechless, poked the small vine orb with his finger, then looked up at the tree seed fragment that was lashing a vine whip towards his feet. "Hey, I'm not trying to steal your thing." He found it a bit strange himself. Earlier, he had pulled out a huge pile of Sacred Stones from under its vines, and this thing hadn't reacted at all. Yet, now, simply taking a small vine orb seemed to have agitated this tree seed fragment. Could there be something peculiar about this small vine orb?

Mo Lian lowered his head and shook the small orb in his hand, releasing a stream of divine sense to penetrate its interior. However, it seemed to hit a barrier and was almost bounced back out. This made Crown Prince Mo even more curious. He took a few steps forward and reassuringly patted the mass of tree vines.

"Alright, don't be nervous. I'm not hurting it. I just want to see what it is."

The branch of the small tree sphere swiftly climbed to the top of the mass of tree vines and gave it a hard whack, as if warning it not to act rashly. Although the tree vines were unconvinced and still wanted to strike Mo Lian, under the constant whacking from the sphere's branch, they eventually quieted down obediently.

However, it now crawled down from the inner wall, and an arm-length green humanoid emerged from the center of the mass of vines. It crawled on all fours like a baby towards Mo Lian's leg, vigorously nudging his robe.

Mo Lian had already sat down against the cave wall. Seeing the small green humanoid approach, he picked it up and placed it on his shoulder. "I'll take you back later. Your master will surely be very happy to see you." Mo Lian patted the small green humanoid's head. This little thing already had a nose and eyes, having taken on the appearance of a small human. However, its small face was still green, making it look a bit unappealing.

The small green humanoid twitched its limbs, seemingly trying its best to stop Mo Lian from peeling open the vine orb.

"What's the rush? Let's see what it is," Mo Lian said, giving it an unamused pat, and then casually peeled away the layers of vines wrapped around the outside of the orb.

Inside, a glistening, transparent emerald green object was revealed. It resembled a mass of water, solidified into a paste, and formed into a sphere, gently pulsating in Mo Lian's palm. The branch of the small tree sphere, upon seeing this object, immediately flew over. Just as it was about to collide with it, Mo Lian reached out and tightly grasped it in his hand.

The sphere's vine branch throbbed restlessly in Mo Lian's hand, seemingly very excited. However, Mo Lian was too preoccupied to pay attention to this little thing now.
