Chapter 1366 Tuition fee II

"I will teach you how to grow a Void Sequoia tree, but not an ordinary one. I will teach you how to grow a rarer, more ancient variant called Void Stabilisation Sequoia tree, and from that I will require some sap and its first seed. That will be the payment after the fact.

"Before that, I will require a Genesis Oak seed and an Eternal Autumn Persimmon seed. When you have both, I will teach you what you need."

Lex was unfamiliar with the Void Stabilisation Sequoia tree, as well as the others mentioned by the turtle. Even though he had recently done a lot of research on trees, it made sense that information on rarer species was not so easily available. Since the turtle knew about them, they must exist. He was curious about them though.

"I'll see if I can get my hands on them, though I'll admit I've never heard of them before. Can you tell me a bit about them? That might help me find them."

"The seeds I've asked you for are only the ordinary versions of these trees, so finding them should not be impossible. I will raise all three seeds within this realm so that the growth of the realm can be better regulated."

Oh man, Lex really needed to talk to the turtle more often. What did it mean it was trying to regulate the growth of his realm?!?!

"Oh, what are you planning on doing to the realm?" Lex asked, suppressing his concern.

"Got it," said Lex, making a mental note to learn more about realms and their life cycles.

With that, he returned to the emporium a lot quicker than he was expecting too. A couple of additional orders should not have been too much of an issue, yet when he returned, he saw a very troubled looking Powell waiting for him.

"What happened? Are you okay?" Lex asked. Just a short while ago, he was humming with joy, and now he looked like he swallowed a raw potato.

"There has been some progress on your commission, but the situation has developed in an unexpected fashion. Do you recall Madame Zuri Adisa? You once conducted a trade with her through the emporium."

"Yes, I remember her," Lex said. It was hard to forget someone like that, and not just because she had appeared in front of Lex in the guise of a mature, yet devastatingly beautiful woman. No, she was a very powerful Celestial immortal who had her clones spread out across the Origin realm, and even in the Midnight realm. She might even have her clones in other realms entirely.

Lex would not easily forget someone as formidable as that. There was also the fact that she had started her journey as a mere four-leaf clover!

"Well, it seems she has a very close relationship with the Void Sequoia tree forest, and no one can gain entry without her approval. On the plus side, getting a seed is much easier now - all one needs to do is ask her for it directly. But Madame Zuri has refused all trade offers, and instead insists that if you wish to get the seed, you must meet with her personally."

Lex frowned, but did not find the request unusual. Even the last time he traded with her, she requested to meet him in person.

"It's not a problem. Can you arrange for me to meet with her?"
