Chapter 637 Space Ring
Upon discovering this secret, the couple was overjoyed.
Fortunately, this spiritual tree grew in their old courtyard. If it had grown outside, the secret would have been discovered by others long ago, wouldn't it?
As a gentle breeze blew, the tree rang with the sound of bells.
A few fully matured leaves fell, and Ivy hurriedly caught them. Once the pale yellow leaves turned completely golden, she quickly put them in her bag.
My goodness, she was going to make a fortune!
How many leaves are there on this tree?
Ivy had been planning to use the shells of rainbow-colored pearls to make jewelry and establish her own jewelry company, but now with these golden leaves, she had even more ideas.
It seemed she was soon to become the richest woman in ancient Europe!
Alexander looked at the spiritual tree in disbelief and mumbled to himself, "I wonder if Grandma Annabel and the other descendants of the Lewis family know about the spiritual tree?"
With a creak, a crack suddenly appeared in the trunk of the spiritual tree.
A cute little scholar poked his head out and said, "Are you the descendants of the Lewis family? Come in! The ancestors of the Lewis family have something to tell you!"
Alexander and Ivy were both astounded.
Earlier, when the tomb opened a door leading to the underworld, they already found it extraordinary.
Now, a tree could also open a door. They wondered where it would lead to.
With a spirit of exploration, the two stepped inside the tree's crack.
Inside the tree was a whole new world.
No ancient mansions, no exotic flowers and plants, only a thick and ancient vine thicker than a pillar.
Neither could they see its beginning nor its end, and they couldn't tell where this vine had come from.
It seemed boundless, with an infinite length.
Many small lanterns hung on the vine, some emitting red light, some emitting yellow light, and some were green without emitting light.
The young scholar introduced, "This is the spiritual vein of the spiritual tree. It produces lantern fruits every day. When they first grow, they are green and bitter and cannot be eaten, but they have the power to cure all diseases. Once they turn yellow, they can be eaten as fruits. If they turn red, they must be punctured quickly because there is a surprise inside. If not punctured, it will slowly disappear."
While the young scholar spoke, many red lanterns on the tree gradually vanished.
Curiosity got the better of Ivy, and she popped one of the red lanterns, which burst like a bubble in the blink of an eye.
Inside the burst red lantern emerged a sparkling golden chest.
The young scholar excitedly exclaimed, "My goodness, your luck is too good, isn't it? We've been puncturing these red lanterns here every day for decades, and we haven't opened a single chest!"
"What do you usually get when you puncture them?" Ivy asked.
The young scholar replied, "Sometimes it's golden leaves, sometimes it's yellow lantern fruits, and sometimes there's nothing."
Well, she was certainly lucky.
Ivy couldn't wait to open the chest.
A translucent and sparkling ring suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Ivy's eyes sparkled with excitement as she said, "Alexander, it's a diamond ring!"
Alexander couldn't help but try to grab the ring.
Come and have a look to see if it's really a diamond. As soon as I reached out my hand, the ring dodged away, as if it had some kind of spirituality. The little servant said, "This is a spatial ring, infinitely large on the inside, capable of containing everything. However, it is very selective, only acknowledging its master. Whoever opens the treasure chest becomes its owner, and no one else can come near it."
"A spatial...ring..."
Suddenly, Ivy felt incredible, as if she had achieved something great, being able to obtain such a magical treasure. Just now, she was worried that she only brought one bag and wouldn't have enough space for the golden leaves on the tree.
But now that she had the spatial ring, she no longer needed to worry about not having a place to put the golden leaves. Not only that, she could also store the colorful seashells and pearls at home in the spatial ring.
"What a wonderful treasure!" Ivy excitedly reached out her hand. She wanted to pinch the ring and take a closer look, but before she could do anything, the spatial ring automatically slipped onto her finger and adjusted to the perfect size on its own.
