That night, I had a dreamless sleep.

The next morning, I woke up early and immediately picked up my notebook to read.

There were some additional words on the notebook page.

It said:

"During the revival of spiritual energy, my parents failed to awaken any special abilities and had no means of self-protection.

In Wuhua Temple, there is a thousand-year-old ginseng fruit tree. Today at noon, the ginseng fruit tree will bear five ginseng fruits.

Go and pick two ginseng fruits, and once the spiritual energy is revived, immediately give them to my parents to consume. By then, they will be able to awaken special abilities and gain self-protection.

You can only pick two, no more."]

After reading this passage, I immediately instructed the driver to prepare the car.

Although it only takes a little over two hours to reach Wuhua Temple, we had plenty of time.

However, I could sense the importance of the ginseng fruits to my parents from the notes.

Just to be safe, I decided to go there in advance.

In case of any delays along the way, someone else might pick them.

As for whether people are allowed to pick the ginseng fruits in Wuhua Temple, we'll see when the time comes.

It's almost doomsday, there's no point in overthinking.

No matter what, I must obtain the ginseng fruits.

So that my parents can have the means to protect themselves in the apocalypse.

After informing my parents, I immediately rushed to Wuhua Temple.

When I arrived at the temple, I asked the monk about the location of the thousand-year-old ginseng fruit tree.

I hurried over according to the directions given by the monk.

When I arrived, I saw only one old monk with a gray beard standing under the tree.

There was no one else around.

I hesitated for a moment but decided to approach.

I stood opposite the monk, pretending to admire this thousand-year-old ginseng fruit tree.

Although I appeared calm on the surface, I was actually quite anxious inside.

I could only console myself.

There is still some time before the result. Perhaps the monk will leave in a while.

Half an hour passed, and the old monk was still there.

He continued to silently gaze at the ginseng fruit tree in front of him.

Could it be that he knows the tree will bear fruit soon?

I pondered.

Just then, I noticed a change in the ginseng fruit tree.

Its branches and leaves were not swayed by a strong wind, yet they were shaking violently.

And at this moment, the tree was rapidly bearing fruit.

One, two... until it produced the fifth fruit.

This was something completely unrealistic, but it was happening right before my eyes.

However, when I looked at the old monk across from me and saw his reaction to this sight,

There was no hint of surprise on his face, as if he had expected it.

At that moment, I stared intently at the two fruits closest to me.

Just as I was about to speak to the old monk,

The old monk spoke first:

"This ginseng fruit tree has been alive for over a thousand years, and the timing of its fruiting is completely irregular."

"Since you can witness its fruiting with your own eyes, you must be a destined person. In that case, go ahead and pick two fruits to take back."

Seeing the calm expression on the old monk's face, I breathed a sigh of relief.

I thanked the old monk and quickly picked the two ginseng fruits before hurriedly leaving.

I felt that the old monk might know something.

After all, a normal person wouldn't be so composed after witnessing such a phenomenon.
