According to Jin Xuanyan, this is indeed the best place for planting.

The Hell of Fire Abyss, where the underground fire veins are located, has the richest fire-attributed spiritual energy, unmatched there.

Planting the sacred Fusang tree here will not only help it grow quickly, but also enable the tree to reach its maximum power through the nourishment of the underground fire veins.

"There is no time to lose, let's act immediately." Baili Changge said decisively.

Everyone started to act separately, looking for the place with the strongest fire attribute.

After some careful exploration, they finally chose a location next to a lava lake, where the flames were like substance, the water was boiling, and the heat waves were surging.

"Right here, the fire attribute spiritual energy is so rich that it is enough to make the Fusang sacred tree thrive."

The compass that Li Wanji brought was a precious treasure for finding dragons and exploring caves. It could accurately detect the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. At this moment, the needle was spinning wildly and finally pointed steadily to the lava lake, confirming the extraordinary nature of this place.

"Okay, let's do as Wan Ji said. We will set up the formation here and plant the sacred Fusang tree."

As he spoke, Baili Changge waved his sleeves, and a breeze blew by, clearing a piece of open space next to the lava lake in preparation for planting.

Li Wanji carefully took out a seed of the sacred Fusang tree from the jade box, gently placed it in the palm of her hand, closed her eyes and concentrated, silently chanted a spell, and slowly injected her own immortal power into it.

Cang Yuan was also not idle. He took out pieces of jade containing rich spiritual power and embedded them into the ground at specific positions to stabilize the fluctuations of the surrounding fire spiritual power and provide a stable growth environment for the sacred tree.

As Li Wanji's immortal power was injected, the seed of the Fusang sacred tree gradually emitted a dazzling golden light, as if it was activated, and began to tremble slightly.

She slowly opened her hands and gently threw the seeds into the cleared space.

As soon as the seed touched the ground, it immediately took root, as if an invisible force was pulling it, and it quickly merged with the land full of fire spiritual energy.

Then, circles of golden halos spread out from the seeds, instantly covering the entire area around the lava lake.

"What a strong vitality!" Li Qingge exclaimed, his eyes full of shock.

Then he led several other brothers and sisters to throw a series of rare spiritual materials such as Morning Dew, Nine Heavens Star Sand, Ambergris Essence and Phoenix Nirvana Fire into the area around the seeds of the Fusang sacred tree in a specific order and proportion.

These spiritual materials were carefully prepared by them to help the growth of the Fusang sacred tree and ensure that it can absorb enough nutrients and strength.

As the spiritual materials were added, the young seedling of the Fusang sacred tree seemed to sense something, and its branches and leaves trembled slightly, greedily absorbing the surrounding fire-attributed spiritual power and the energy contained in the rare spiritual materials.

Li Wanji and Baili Changge also continued to inject immortal power into the sacred tree to help it consolidate its roots and grow rapidly.

The hibiscus saplings grew well, rising rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. They soon grew to more than one meter tall, with lush branches and leaves, shining with golden light, and full of vitality.

Just when everyone thought that the Fusang sacred tree would grow smoothly and sealing the fire veins was just around the corner, something strange happened.

The sacred tree withered rapidly, its branches and leaves shrivelled quickly, and the originally bright golden light became dim.

"What's going on?" Li Wanji exclaimed. She immediately stopped injecting immortal power and carefully checked the condition of the sacred tree.

Baili Changge and Cangyuan also came over, looking solemn.

The sacred Fusang tree they planted withered into this state in just a few minutes. It was obvious that something went wrong.

"Is it a problem with the spiritual materials?" Cang Yuan looked puzzled.

"Impossible! These spiritual materials are all selected by me personally according to the growth requirements of the Fusang sacred tree. They are of top quality and there is absolutely no problem." Li Wanji immediately denied this speculation.

"What could be the reason?" Baili Changge frowned, thinking about the possible reasons.

Baili Changge pondered for a moment, and suddenly a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He flipped his hand and pulled up the withered Fusang sacred tree by its roots, but a few burning flounders bit the roots of the tree tightly and refused to let go.

"Father, those stinky fish with flames all over their bodies are gnawing at the roots of the sacred Fusang tree!" Li Yingge had sharp eyes and saw the burning flounders gnawing at the roots at a glance.

When everyone looked closely, they found that the schools of fire fish that were originally swimming in the lava lake were now gathered at the roots of the Fusang sacred tree, gnawing at it frantically.

"It turns out that it was the fault of the burning flounder. No wonder the sacred tree withered so quickly." Li Wanji also felt angry.

These burning flounders are unique creatures in the abyss of the Hell of Fire. They feed on fire spiritual power and are extremely fond of gnawing on the roots and rhizomes of plants that are rich in fire spiritual power.

The Fusang sacred tree had just been planted, its roots were not yet stable, and it contained extremely pure fire spiritual power, so it naturally became the target of these incendiary flounders.

"These damn burning flounders actually dared to ruin our plan!" A cold light flashed in Cang Yuange's eyes. He waved his hand and a stream of sword energy shot out, instantly killing several burning flounders that were gnawing at the tree roots.

However, this is only a temporary solution and not a permanent solution. There are so many burning flounders in the lava lake that new ones soon swim over to continue eating.

"We must find a way to get rid of these burning flounders, otherwise the Fusang sacred tree will not survive." Li Wanji said in a deep voice.

Baili Changge frowned and thought for a moment: "I have read in ancient books about a spell called 'Fire Spirit Shield', which can form a protective shield composed of fire spirit power around plants. Perhaps it can stop these burning flounders."

"Oh? Brother Baili knows this skill?" Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Cang Yuan's eyes.

"I know a little bit, I can give it a try." Baili Changge nodded.

After saying that, he sat down cross-legged, began to chant the incantation, formed seals with his hands, and immortal energy surged throughout his body.

After a moment, a red light shield composed of fire spiritual power gradually formed, covering the withered Fusang sacred tree.

This fire spirit shield not only contains powerful fire spirit power, but also has a special burning effect. Any creature that touches the shield will be burned by the flames.

Sure enough, the burning flounders that originally wanted to continue gnawing at the roots of the Fusang sacred tree were burned and rolled over, making crackling sounds the moment they touched the Fire Spirit Shield.

Soon, the burning flounders dared not approach the Fire Spirit Shield anymore and retreated back into the lava lake.

After some efforts, the problem of burning flounder was finally solved.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, removed the withered sacred tree, and planted a new Fusang sacred tree seed.

With the protection of the Fire Spirit Shield, the Fusang Sacred Tree took root safely this time, and its branches and leaves quickly spread out, bursting with vitality.

The golden light flowed among the branches and leaves, as if bringing a touch of sacred golden glow to this fiery abyss of hell.

With the previous experience, everyone dared not be careless at all and guarded the Fusang sacred tree all day long to ensure its safe growth.

After several days, the Fusang sacred tree had grown to several feet tall. They began to take turns setting up spirit gathering arrays to ensure that the sacred tree could continue to absorb enough fire-attribute spiritual power.

However, the birth of the sacred tree also attracted the attention of certain beings above the nine heavens, and an unknown crisis was quietly approaching.
