A note about blood-drinking demonic trees

  In the vast spirit wilds there exist countless magical plant life but even among them one of the most notorious types of magical plant life is the blood-drinking trees and plants as they are so strong that they can cross ranks and kill other creatures and their ability to absorb other creatures life force also gives them the ability to rapidly grow and spread like a weed so all sentient races hate and kill these blood-sucking variants whenever they discover one.

  Chapter 8: The resting place of the progenitor

  The night has now completely covered the forest in darkness though there was still a magical and mystical atmosphere in the entire forest as many plants glowed with faint lights and many very small glowing creatures were also floating everywhere in the forest giving it a truly breathtaking beauty.

  Also, all the monsters and animals in the forest had red eyes for some reason which was unknown to Will at the present.

  ***

  Man, it's so beautiful that I am speechless though I would have felt better if I didn't have to become a spirit wisp to see this captivating scenery. Anyways this is not the time to be appreciating beauty as I still have evolution to complete.

  Also while I was resting here and recovering my energy I noticed that my energy seemed to recover quicker when I was near the tree. Another thing I discovered was that for some reason the other creatures seemed to purposely avoid going too near this seemingly normal tree when compared to the many magical plants everywhere else in the forest.

  Wait a sec, I immediately started to observe the surrounding forest around the tree using my spirit sense and noticed that there was no tree as normal looking as this tree which was extremely suspicious now that I think about it.

  Hmm, why didn't I notice this anomaly sooner, I should have noticed something so suspicious like this easily. Then as I was contemplating this mystery I remembered that I had a new skill so I immediately gave a mental command to the skill to probe the tree. This action immediately gave me some answers in the form of a message box which was like the system message though I still instinctively knew that this message box was not one made by the system and instead created by the skill.

  Whoa man, this is one deadly tree, I am really lucky that I am a spiritual creature instead of a blood and flesh creature because if I had been a blood and flesh creature then I would have been sucked dry and digested by this tree long ago.

  Hmm also looking at this analysis results the insignificant skill is what's responsible for why I didn't notice this tree's abnormalities as the skill seems to make other creatures naturally ignore this tree and make them think that it's just an insignificant ordinary tree.

  Though I still don't quite get this resting place of the progenitor title. So I focused on that specific title as per the knowledge I had about using this skill which seemed to work as a new message box appeared with detailed information on the title.

  Man, that's a lot of benefits though they all just seem to help make this resting place as comfortable as possible. But I like it as I must say this tree is indeed comfortable to rest at and I would also not have to worry about finding a new resting place in case I grow bigger when I evolve as this resting place can just adjust itself to accommodate me perfectly.

  So now that this mystery has been resolved let's see what evolution options I have. Then as I mentally commanded the system to show me the evolution options, a new system message appeared showing me the options.

  Hmm well, the first option is kinda useless to me as I don't have any other spirit wisps with me so that's a no-go. The second option is not that bad but the third option is way better and it also finally gives me the ability to get some fellow spirit wisps as I can't stand this loneliness anymore.

  “Ok system I choose the lesser guardian dryad option as my evolution”. I said to the system mentally and then I immediately started to lose consciousness. The only thing that I saw before completely losing consciousness was a message saying that evolution has now begun.
