It's not that easy. You don't get your first quest until you've played for a while, and getting any additional ones after claiming your first victim costs quite a bit of XP. All in all, conscious killing of questgivers takes a lot of time unless they're marked by other players. (Furthermore, as far as I'm aware killing questgivers does not reduce the number of questgivers in the area - the spirit just moves to another tree/rock.)

Interesting, this is the first time I've heard about a player getting a quest from a planted tree.
