again filled with a huge pile of Spirit Wood Pills and Extreme Fruits!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang still had no intention of consuming the Extreme Fruit now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before receiving news from Ning Shuangyu about the effectiveness of the Extreme Fruit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t consume

shone with a faint green luster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swallowed the pill in one gulp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closed his eyes and focused!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anticipating the surge of spiritual power within!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes, a trace of disappointment appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected, it’s just a low-grade elixir, the spiritual energy is too weak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one isn’t enough!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then just consume more!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he had thousands of pills here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not worried at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One, two, three...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continuously sent Spirit Wood Pills into his mouth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pile of pills in his space was diminishing at a speed visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there were outsiders around, they would surely be dumbfounded!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person is actually eating pills like food!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time quietly passed amid Lin Lang’s continuous swallowing sounds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until he consumed a full 5000 Spirit Wood Pills in one go!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire room was filled with a faint herbal fragrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang’s body shook violently, as if an invisible force burst within him, surging like a tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Succeeded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang opened his eyes, his gaze calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lin

still surrounded his superpower core!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had been present ever since he and Ouyang Yunzhi engaged in dual cultivation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unclear about its use?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang walked towards the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a very familiar tree—its trunk thick and branches luxuriant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already used this tree, employing the Spirit Wood Ability, to kill many enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some ways, it was also a battle companion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He focused his mind, using the newly awakened Divine Wood Ability—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Establishing a link between him and the tree!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As spiritual qi traveled through Lin Lang’s meridians!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It also passed through the tree!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tree seemed to have become a part of Lin Lang’s body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang’s eyes suddenly deepened, as if he could perceive all things in the world!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the power of the Eye of Destiny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the Eye of Destiny!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang clearly saw—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the trunk of the tree, there was originally a faint light hidden!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light was undergoing a wonderful transformation, gradually condensing into something akin to Divine Sense!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This... is the tree’s consciousness awakening?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Turning into a tree demon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t too surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he had long discovered that this tree was somewhat unusual!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the time when the Black Dragon Association was causing trouble, it was especially evident!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to secretly absorb the cores of superpower users frequently!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it seems!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was already transforming towards becoming a Tree Spirit then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang merely lent it a hand, helping it break through the final barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the tree’s consciousness had awakened, it still seemed like a newborn baby, needing time to adapt and grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its trunk trembled slightly, awaiting a full awakening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Lin Lang’s spiritual qi continuously flowed into the tree through the link!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As both exchanged spiritual qi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang suddenly discovered that continuously using the Divine Wood Power could nourish the hidden consciousness of the tree, like gentle rain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accelerating its awakening!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This discovery filled him with anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wondered what the tree would become after awakening?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang was too busy, having no time to focus on this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gu Fei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang called Gu Fei and said to her:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should practice the Divine Wood Ability more in the future, using this tree to practice!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This not only would train Gu Fei’s Divine Wood Ability!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But would also add a powerful combat force to Xingfu District, providing extra security!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Fei agreed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood on the balcony, close to the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closed her eyes, taking a deep breath, as if having a silent conversation with the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hands gently rose, fingertips flowing with a gentle green light!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the symbol of the Divine Wood Ability, also the bridge of connection between her and the tree!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds, adding a touch of warmth to Xingfu District on this ordinary day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lin Lang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Xinrou’s figure once again appeared in Lin Lang’s view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, she proactively came downstairs to 2102, to find Lin Lang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her steps were brisk, her face radiating a long-lost enthusiasm and smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if the previous days of coldness and estrangement had never existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang sat on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes involuntarily followed Ding Xinrou’s figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pondered to himself—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What secret was hidden behind Ding Xinrou’s sudden change?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when Ding Xinrou saw Lin Lang, she walked towards him eagerly, her eyes filled with anticipation and longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clung to Lin Lang, continuously asking various questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed very talkative!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enthusiasm and urgency alarmed Yu Anni, who was watching from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She whispered to herself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong with Xinrou? Has she really developed a dual personality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang remained exceptionally calm and composed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he had long detected the strangeness within Ding Xinrou!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There seemed to be two completely different Divine Senses alternating within that body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the alternation of day and night, each with its characteristics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was cold-hearted, distant, and harbored inexplicable hostility towards nearby females!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was enthusiastic and open, happy to communicate, and more willing to share information with Lin Lang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason Lin Lang did not expose this secret before!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was because he sharply perceived!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind these two personalities, there seemed to be different motives and purposes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold-hearted personality made him cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the enthusiastic personality could potentially be a breakthrough to understanding the truth and breaking the dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid alerting the enemy, Lin Lang chose silence and patience, observing Ding Xinrou’s every move attentively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anticipating the reappearance of the friendlier personality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She finally returned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sense of anticipation surged in Lin Lang’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered that the last time he interacted with this personality, she inadvertently revealed some key information!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Providing him with a deeper understanding of Ding Xinrou’s true situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ding Xinrou clung to him again and they moved to the bedroom of 2202, onto the bed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lang continued his work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke openly, probing and confirming in his voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it you, Xinyi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Xinrou, upon hearing this, showed a flash of surprise in her eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then quickly returned to her familiar enthusiasm and warmth. She gently nodded, as if confirming Lin Lang’s guess!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lin Lang knew that he was one step closer to uncovering the truth behind Ding Xinrou’s secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>",1234,"2026-05-30T17:16:31.515Z","2026-06-01T04:31:46.286Z",1,"novelbin.me","d3f828221f76a11510785ebe3a6bc5f2abd15f2eb74aed7131b8893511d6cd75","apocalypse-resources-consumed-by-women-returned--chapter-197","apocalypse-resources-consumed-by-women-returned--chapter-195",264,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-resources-consumed-by-women-returned--cover.jpg"]
