These black spots are the aftermath of the last curse.
"Saint Master Han Xing, what brings you to this old creature?"
Laughter echoed from afar.
Everyone saw a human face with a smile on the trunk of the Ancient Tree with Entwined Roots.
Upon hearing this, Han Xing was suddenly taken aback and said, "Old Tree, how did you know that I came to see you with a purpose?"
The Ancient Tree chuckled lightly, "Saint Master Han Xing's ambitions are noble and aimed at accomplishing a feat that could be recorded in history; you surely don't have time to chat idly with this old creature."
"Indeed, one does not visit unless there's a particular reason."
Han Xing also laughed, "You're right."
"Old Tree, I have come to you this time precisely for this matter."
The branches of the Ancient Tree swayed gently.
Han Xing continued to speak.
"Old Tree, according to what you said at the time, my power level is still quite a long way off."
"Seeing it now, how much do you think I still lack?"
