Chen Lun politely held his black hat and greeted him.
He didn’t want to cause any conflicts with the Naturalist Sect, so he said,
“We are merely passing through the Kellettville Forest, not intending to intrude on Naturalist Sect territory… If we have offended in any way, please forgive us.”
“It is not an offense… We have never considered Kellettville Forest as our territory. Nature thrives here, and besides, I know you meant no harm.”
Olga said.
She gently stroked the forehead of a moose.
“I came here specifically because ‘Lady Moose’ wants to meet you, Mr. Jack.”
“Lady Moose…”
Chen Lun paused slightly.
The Lady Moose mentioned by the other party, of course, he knew who it was… She had been governing the Naturalist Sect for over a thousand years, a very powerful and established figure!
“You know me?”
He said in surprise.
“Of course.”
Olga nodded.
“Although the Naturalist Sect has been secluded deep within the forest, we are not ignorant of the outside world… Recently, as the Tresor Empire has been stirred, we also tried to obtain a seat at the Righteous God Church but failed, and the Generous Council ultimately seized the throne… Mr. Jack, as one of the top ten Governing Officers of the Senate, we’ve known about you for a long time.”
Chen Lun looked at the elder in front of him, thought for a moment, then tentatively asked,
“I see… May I know why Lady Moose, Your Majesty, wishes to see me? I believe I’ve never had any contact with your sect before.”
Olga looked intently at Chen Lun and said slowly,
“Saintess Her Majesty informed Lady Moose of your arrival in the forest, which piqued Her interest… Rest assured, Mr. Jack, our invitation is made with good intentions, you may consider it a visit. Whether you come or not, we will respect your wishes.”
‘The Saintess? Who is that…’
Chen Lun slightly furrowed his brows.
He pondered for a while.
He had no enmity with the Naturalist Sect; if they wanted to harm him, they could have easily surrounded him since this was their territory… The fact that Olga’s squad came to make contact showed their sincerity.
So he nodded and spoke,
“In that case, please lead the way, Priest Olga.”
“You’re welcome, it’s my duty.”
Olga smiled lightly.
She then whispered something to the moose, and the large animal slowly turned and led the way into the forest.
Chen Lun called out to Noah and Anton, following closely behind.
The men and women of the Naturalist Sect in the team did not interact verbally, and although they seemed quite curious about him, the entire atmosphere was tranquil, showing their good discipline.
After about twenty minutes of walking, they crossed the forest and arrived at the edge of a lake.
On a wide clearing were built many houses made of wood and stone, as well as quite a few watchtowers and fences, seemingly as a precaution against dangerous creatures in the forest. The villagers, dressing simply, stopped their activities and work to greet Olga’s squad as they saw them returning.

It seemed that Olga held a high status here.
“This is a human settlement protected by the Naturalist Sect, their ancestors were once the masters of this land… After Tresor Empire unified the continent, many people from fallen nations fled here. Over thousands of years, many generations have thrived.”
She turned to explain to Chen Lun.
“It is a civilization left from a previous era.”
Chen Lun nodded and sighed.
“Please, this way.”
Olga rode the moose, leading Chen Lun deeper into the secluded settlement.
They reached a towering tree.
Under this tree, there was a large hollow, like a great door.
“This portal leads to the underground ‘Holy Tree roots’ that connect to the Naturalist Sect’s base…”
Olga led the group into the hollow and spoke softly.
Chen Lun knew of the Holy Tree she mentioned, rumored to be a present-day incarnation of ‘Lady Holy Tree,’ Mother Nature, around whom the Naturalist Sect was established, serving beside her from generation to generation.
Entering the hollow, Chen Lun discovered it was not as dark as he had imagined, but instead quite luminous… The thick roots’ inner walls were covered with numerous luminescent fungi, providing illumination.
Numerous roots entwined here, forming a pathway.
A moment later.
Chen Lun estimated he had followed Olga and others down to several tens of meters underground, winding along the twisty root pathways towards an unknown area.
After several more minutes, the pathway gradually ascended, and then they returned to the surface.
Whoosh!
A blinding white light suddenly appeared.
Clear bird calls sounded by his ears.
Chen Lun used “Five Senses Perception” to adjust his sight, revealing a scene that looked like a celestial realm… The area was spacious and filled with houses made from giant mushrooms and tree stumps, arranged closely together.
Flowers, butterflies, and numerous plants he had never seen before covered the ground, filling the air with fragrances and bird songs.
Seeing such a beautiful vista, Chen Lun’s mood brightened.
At the far end surrounded by numerous houses was an immensely tall tree, reaching skyward, its highest point even obscured by clouds… It emitted a faint golden glow, somewhat ethereal, and on its robust branches, wide as city streets, one could even see numerous wooden houses and pedestrians.
