Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 138: Striking the Darkness, the Ancient Spirit Tree Underground!

"We should hurry too!" Chen Chang'an's eyebrows furrowed upon seeing the celestial curtain, and he said to the others.

Immediately, the group quickened their pace and headed towards the temple ahead.

Fortunately, their speed was fast enough, and before the sky completely darkened, they finally arrived at the temple.

When Chen Chang'an and the others arrived at the temple, they immediately noticed that many savage beasts had gathered inside.

These savage beasts were not Demonic Beasts; they were a special species that existed between Demonic Beasts and ordinary wild beasts. This species could only be found in the Great Wilderness.

At this moment, there were sheep, tigers, wolves, lions, solitary eagles, walking beasts, flying birds, all gathered together in the temple.

Strangely, there was no killing here. After each savage beast entered the temple, they would automatically find a place inside to crouch down and tremble, waiting for the next moment to come.

Chen Chang'an could even see a rabbit crouching next to a hungry wolf, but the hungry wolf showed no intention of opening its mouth.

The chain of the food chain seemed to have completely broken at this moment, and all living beings were on the same level.

Buzz~!

Almost the moment Chen Chang'an and the others entered, a strange change occurred between heaven and earth.

Only to see from within the temple, wisps of green light suddenly rose into the sky.

The next moment, a green light barrier appeared within a mile radius of the temple.

The green light barrier enveloped all living creatures, as if it were a protective shield.

Buzz~!

Not only the temple where Chen Chang'an and the others were, at this moment, in the entire Great Wilderness, there were wisps of green fluorescence floating everywhere.

They floated in the sky, weaving the sky into a green Galaxy in the blink of an eye, and then descended to the ground, forming green light barriers of various sizes.

At this moment, the entire Great Wilderness was illuminated. Almost half of the place was marked with this green color, while beyond this green, there was the darkness that swept in from the distant horizon.

Fizz~!

A green fluorescence was shrouded in darkness, but when the darkness invaded, it couldn't enter.

It was blocked by the intense green fluorescence!

Fizz~!

At the intersection of the two, terrifying sizzling sounds constantly echoed, as if there were powerful creatures fighting inside.

Roar~!

Wuwu~!

And in that fluorescent light, when this scene happened, all the spirits were groaning anxiously while crawling low.

They were afraid, retreating step by step, trying hard to squeeze themselves into the center of the spirits, as if it could give them a great sense of security.

Chen Chang'an saw this scene and frowned.

"Kid, this is the Great Wilderness."

"The Great Wilderness has its own rules, and it is relying on these rules that the spirits have been multiplying here for so long."

At this moment, Kidney Deficiency also sighed. Having lived through endless years, even he found the scene in the Great Wilderness extremely astonishing.

There is a balance between all things in the world, and the Great Wilderness is the manifestation of pushing this balance to its limit.

"Master, this is the darkness that the disciple wants to sever."

While Chen Chang'an and Kidney Deficiency were talking, Chen Yi, who was beside them, had a determined expression on his face.

The sky of the Great Wilderness is the darkness he wants to sever!

However, Chen Chang'an didn't hold much hope for Chen Yi's idea.

Because even in this sky of the Great Wilderness, he himself still felt lost.

It is basically impossible for Chen Yi to break through here.

Buzz~!

The sky became even darker, and at this moment, the entire Great Wilderness was completely shrouded in a black sky.

Under the black sky, green fluorescent barriers stood tall between heaven and earth.

Inside these green fluorescent barriers, low and deep roars of beasts constantly resounded, each one filled with trembling and fear.

Those were the roaring beasts inside the light circles, facing the ominousness in the darkness as if they saw death. Each one of them tensed their bodies, restless and anxious.

Everything seemed as if doomsday was about to come!

Sizzle~!

In addition to the roar of beasts, another sizzling sound was heard in the Great Wilderness at this moment.

That was the sound produced at the contact between the light barriers and the black curtain, intense and violent, as if two unparalleled terrifying existences were fiercely clashing!

Seeing this scene, Chen Chang'an's brow slightly furrowed again. He had heard of the black night of the Great Wilderness, but this was the first time he had such a close encounter.

Time passed second by second, and under the gaze of Chen Chang'an and the others, the black night of the Great Wilderness gradually raged.

"Old man, what are these things inside the green light? Do you know?" Chen Chang'an asked Kidney Deficiency.

"It is the divine nature left behind by ancient gods," said Kidney Deficiency Master.

"Whether it is the black sky curtain or the green light barrier, they both contain divine nature within," he continued.

"The difference is that the divine nature within the black sky curtain belongs to evil gods, while the one within the green light barrier belongs to ancient gods," he explained.

"The confrontation between the black sky curtain and the green light barrier is essentially a clash of divine natures between evil gods and ancient gods, nothing more," he concluded.

"That's pretty much what I thought," Chen Chang'an nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Kidney Deficiency Master spoke again.

"Young man, you're lucky today. You've encountered a rare divine calamity as soon as you arrived," he said.

Divine calamity?

Upon hearing Kidney Deficiency Master's words, Chen Chang'an's face showed a hint of surprise.

He had heard of the term "divine calamity" before.

The term "divine calamity" only existed in the Great Wilderness, and it referred to the destruction of ancient temples or the extinction of ancient trees.

Each of these ancient temples or ancient trees represented an ancient god.

That's why their extinction was also called a divine calamity.

Chen Chang'an quickly looked towards the distant sky and earth.

Sure enough, in the next moment, about fifty miles away from them, he saw a temple that was constantly making cracking sounds.

The cracking sounds did not come from the temple itself, but from the light barrier outside the temple.

The light barrier seemed to be unable to withstand the powerful attacks from the dark sky curtain. It was emitting a mournful cry, and cracks were appearing on its surface.

"Roar~!"

"Moo~!"

"Woo~!"

"Ow~!"

...

The disappearance of the light barrier was most terrifying for the savage beasts residing inside the temple.

They seemed to know their impending fate, howling anxiously with eyes filled with sorrow.

There were also a few that attempted to resist, but their angry roars couldn't even cause a ripple in the terrifying light barrier.

Crack~!

Suddenly, the sound of the light barrier shattering grew louder. Visible cracks covered the green light barrier, and it was only a matter of moments before it completely shattered.

"Roar~!"

"Moo~!"

"Woo~!"

"Ow~!"

...

Seeing this scene, the beasts inside the light barrier became even more panicked. Not only them, but various savage beasts in the Great Wilderness also emitted various cries of despair from their respective light barriers.

Including the temple where Chen Chang'an and the others were located.

The beasts mourned the fate of the savage beasts inside the temple, feeling sorrowful for their loss.

Crack~!

Finally, with a loud noise, the light barrier couldn't hold on any longer and shattered.

"Roar~!"

"Ow~!"

In that instant when the light barrier shattered, the beasts inside became frantic.

In the next moment, they swarmed out of the temple and rushed towards the nearby green light barrier, running desperately.

At this moment, Chen Chang'an noticed that some of the escaping savage beasts emitted a soft glow to varying degrees.

Although these glows were not as powerful as the green light, they still provided some protection against the countless darkness.

"Ow~!"

"Woo~!"

"Moo~!"

...

Not all savage beasts had the ability to escape from there. Most of them had ordinary strength and no ability to resist the darkness.

In the moment when the temple shattered and the endless dark sky curtain poured in, they encountered an inescapable fate.

Suddenly, the sound of mournful beast roars echoed in the boundless darkness, filled with despair and the lament of the beasts.

"Roar~!"

"Whoosh~!"

Apart from the savage beasts that died in the sky curtain, the remaining ones were the powerful ones that could move forward in the darkness.

In the dark night, these wild beasts were running like mad. Their intentions were clear - to approach the nearby temple or ancient tree.

The temple here in Chen Chang'an was not far from the one where the accident occurred, so it also suffered the visit of several wild beasts.

There were about five or six of them.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there was a large bird, an orangutan, a tiger king, a wolf king, and a zhu.

These five wild beasts were probably the overlords within a radius of a hundred miles. Just by looking at the golden light emanating from their bodies, it was already extraordinary.

There was no doubt that if they were given more time, they would really have a chance to reach the next location.

But unfortunately, this was probably an impossible task to accomplish.

Chen Chang'an could clearly see that although these five fierce beasts emitted a halo of golden light, it was too faint. It could withstand the darkness for a short period of time, but it was basically impossible for them to persist until they reached this side.

"Roar~!"

Sure enough, in the next moment, the tiger king let out a howl of despair. The halo on its body had been completely swallowed, and then the terrifying darkness enveloped it.

Then, in the boundless darkness, a mournful scream came, and the breath of the tiger king disappeared completely.

"Awu~!"

Next was the wolf king!

After the tiger king was swallowed by darkness, the golden light on the wolf king's body also shattered.

Then, just like the tiger king, it was instantly swallowed by darkness.

"Roar~!"

"Whoosh~!"

The fall of the tiger king and the wolf king immediately caused the other three beasts to mourn. They instantly increased the burning of their blood and wanted to escape from the clutches of this dark curtain.

But all of this was destined to be in vain.

This terrifying curtain, even Heavenly Venerables would find it difficult to resist, let alone these wild beasts?

In the next moment, without any surprise, another wild beast couldn't hold on and fell. This time, it was the zhu!

"Roar~!"

Immediately after, the orangutan also fell. It let out a miserable scream and was then completely swallowed by the black curtain.

In the blink of an eye, out of the five escaped wild beasts, only one remained, which was the large bird.

Perhaps because of the unique advantage of birds, their speed is much faster than the other four beasts.

In the blink of an eye, its figure was approaching the temple where Chen Chang'an and the others were.

However, in contrast, the golden light on its body also dissipated quickly, even faster than its flying speed.

If this dissipation continues at this rate, without a doubt, this big bird will eventually perish in the darkness.

But at this moment, Chen Chang'an noticed that Chen Yi's expression in the room seemed a bit off.

"Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you?" Chen Chang'an asked.

"Master, I... I...!" Chen Yi stuttered in response to Chen Chang'an's inquiry.

Then, before Chen Chang'an could react, Chen Yi suddenly knelt down and cried, saying, "Master, I beg you, please save my father."

Your father?

Chen Chang'an was momentarily stunned by these words, and then he seemed to realize something. He quickly looked at the bird's back.

Sure enough, on the back of that bird, he suddenly noticed the presence of a man.

From the bloodline aura, the man's aura on his body had a connected feeling with Chen Yi's.

This was Chen Chang'an's negligence. He was too focused on looking at the sky, so he didn't pay much attention to the person behind the big bird.

"You foolish boy, leave it to me." After understanding this, Chen Chang'an smiled.

Then, he took a step forward and walked out of the light circle.

Buzz~! At the moment Chen Chang'an stepped out of the light circle, endless darkness immediately surged towards him. However, at the same time, beams of light suddenly emerged from Chen Chang'an's body.

Not only golden light, but also mysterious yellow, green, grass, black... lights of various colors.

In an instant, the boundless and hazy light enveloped Chen Chang'an, protecting him from the harm of this celestial curtain.

Then, he looked towards the big bird rushing towards him in the distance and stepped into the high altitude above the bird.

"Whoosh~!" At this moment, the situation of the big bird was not too good. The golden light all over its body was about to dissipate, and because it had used too much of its burning Divine Ability, it was on the verge of extinction.

The same was true for Chen's father on the back of the big bird. Both the man and the bird closed their eyes, waiting for the arrival of death.

However, just as the golden light on the big bird was dissipating and the boundless darkness was about to engulf them, Chen Chang'an suddenly appeared in front of the man and the bird.

"Evil creature, do not dare to be arrogant!"

Soon after, Chen Chang'an's cold shout was heard, and his body immediately emitted a bright light.

Then, a terrifying golden light rose from his right hand, and he struck out with a punch, hitting the darkness behind the giant bird.

Buzz~!

Hiss~!

Chen Chang'an's attack immediately halted the pursuit of Chen's father and the others for a moment.

And it was precisely this momentary pause that allowed the giant bird to regain its vitality.

"Caw~!"

"Whoosh~!"

In the next moment, it let out two cries and suddenly accelerated, charging directly into the temple.

"It... it survived?"

After the giant bird rushed into the temple, Chen's father opened his eyes in disbelief. He looked at himself, then at the giant bird, and only when he confirmed that they were inside the temple did he realize that he had truly survived.

Suddenly, a surge of excitement from surviving a disaster rose in his heart.

"Huh?! Xiaoyi?! How did you end up here?!"

At the same time, Chen's father also noticed Mao Ruxue and the others in the temple. Especially when he saw Chen Yi, his face showed even more surprise.

"Dad, it's me. I've been unfilial, causing you to worry."

Chen Yi walked forward and hugged his father.

"Xiaoyi, where have you been all this time? Do you know how worried we were about you?"

Chen's father also hugged Chen Yi, tears streaming down his face as he spoke.

"Father, I didn't listen to you. I went to the wilderness alone."

"I wanted to cultivate, I wanted to learn magic, and I wanted to shatter this darkness."

Upon hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen's father couldn't help but shed tears again.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

He choked up as he spoke.

When Chen Yi left the wilderness, he didn't bid farewell to them, he just left without a word.

And he had been gone for over a year.

The people in the village thought that Chen Yi had died in the wilderness, but Chen's father didn't believe it.

So whenever he had free time, he would come to the mountains of the wilderness to search, hoping to find Chen Yi.

In the past, there had been no accidents when he went out to search, but this time was extremely dangerous.

If it weren't for the timely assistance of the giant bird at a critical moment, he would probably have been destroyed in the darkness by now.

"By the way, Xiaoyi, who are these people? Are they your friends?"

After reminiscing with Chen Yi for a while, Chen's father finally noticed Mao Ruxue and the others. He saw that they were dressed in luxurious clothes, indicating that they were from wealthy families outside. He curiously asked.

"Father, I found a master outside, and this is my martial uncle, this is my martial sister, and this is Xiaoqing."

"They accompanied me back." Chen Yi introduced them to his father.

"Oh, I see." Upon hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen's father immediately understood and nodded.

Then he bowed to Mao Ruxue and the others and said, "Old man has met several immortals."

"Thank you, immortals, for escorting my son back."

"Old man, there's no need for that." Mao Ruxue shook her head.

"Xiaoyi has already become my senior brother's disciple, so he is also our junior."

"It is only right for us to escort him back."

Senior brother's disciple?

Master?

Upon hearing Mao Ruxue's words and recalling Chen Yi's words just now, Chen's father realized that he seemed to have missed something very important.

In the next moment, he looked at Mao Ruxue and asked, "Where is my son's master, the great immortal?"

The reason Chen's father asked this was because he remembered.

When they hadn't reached the temple just now, the golden light on the giant bird's body was already on the verge of shattering.

But just as the golden light completely shattered, he seemed to have heard a cold shout in his ear.

Then he was enveloped in a gentle aura, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already in the temple.

At first, Mr. Chen thought they were lucky, but now, combined with Mao Ruxue's words, he suddenly realized that someone had saved them.

And the person who saved them might be the master mentioned by Chen Yi.

"Uncle, my senior brother is right there," Mao Ruxue pointed outside and said to Mr. Chen.

Sure enough, the next moment, Mao Ruxue pointed to the place where Mr. Chen and Daqingniao had come before.

"What?!" Mr. Chen exclaimed, realizing that the person was Chen Chang'an and knowing that it was a different matter.

It should be noted that no one has ever been able to overcome the darkness of the Great Wilderness.

And now someone was able to rescue them from there?

How powerful must one be to accomplish this?

Then, Mr. Chen looked in that direction.

Boom!

Immediately, the scene that appeared before his eyes made him even more shocked.

There, a huge hazy light had appeared, and it enveloped a towering giant, tens of thousands of feet tall.

A terrifying aura filled the air, roaring as if fighting against something terrifying, incredibly frightening!

Boom!

The power of this killing brought about a tremendous force, causing ordinary people like Mr. Chen to have to turn their heads away.

Not only him, but everyone else at the scene, except for Mao Ruxue, could barely look at it and averted their gaze.

This level of power was so terrifying that it was beyond what ordinary people like them could directly face.

If they dared to continue looking, they could lose their lives or even have their eyes destroyed.

As time passed, the battle in the sky continued.

The two strongest fighters seemed tireless, unleashing immense killing power every moment.

Boom!

Under their boundless killing, the entire Great Wilderness trembled, as if doomsday had arrived.

"Evil creature, perish!" Finally, after who knows how long, a loud shout came from the sky.

Then.

Boom!

Followed by a terrifying explosion that resounded through the heavens and earth.

Boom!

The aftermath of the explosion was boundless, spreading throughout the entire Great Wilderness.

"Roar~!"

"Roar~!"

"Moo moo~!"

"."

In the midst of this intense explosion, the beasts trembled, restless and trembling in place, emitting mournful cries.

Mao Ruxue's people quickly covered their ears to block out the world-shaking killing.

Then, after an unknown amount of time, the world suddenly became quiet.

It was only at this moment that Mao Ruxue and the others dared to open their eyes to see what had happened.

"What is this?"

However, just this one look left them completely stunned.

What did they discover?

They saw that the sky at this moment was clear, the boundless darkness had disappeared, and not even a trace of aura could be found, as if nothing had ever happened.

And not far from them, on the horizon, a terrifying figure sat cross-legged.

Behind him, six large wheels filled with endless chaotic aura floated and sank.

What was even more terrifying was that within these six large wheels, one could vaguely see the presence of an extraordinary creature guarding them.

One of them was a terrifying divine elephant, while another was a hazy sacred palace, within which a refined figure overlooking the heavens sat cross-legged.

In addition to these two great beings, there were four other blurry figures.

The aura emanating from their bodies was terrifyingly strong, as if true ancient gods had descended.

Under the blessing of the six creatures, Chen Chang'an, dressed in white, stood supreme.

At this moment, a gentle light radiated from Chen Chang'an's body, and under the backdrop of this gentle light, he appeared like a true immortal in the mortal world.

It looks extremely sacred.

"Senior Brother??"

Seeing this scene, Mao Ruxue finally called out uncertainly.

After being with Chen Chang'an for so long, this is the first time Mao Ruxue has seen such a sacred Senior Brother.

Sacred and powerful!

He is like an ancient deity, descending upon this world at this moment.

At the same time Mao Ruxue called out these words, in the sky, Chen Chang'an also retracted his magical body.

He walked through the air and took a step down, asking, "What's wrong, Junior Sister?"

"Senior Brother, is it really you?" Mao Ruxue reached out and waved her hands in front of Chen Chang'an, asking uncertainly.

It's not surprising that she reacted this way, because Chen Chang'an at this moment is truly extraordinary.

Can you imagine, the boundless sky being forcefully pushed back by someone?

Mao Ruxue had never thought about it, but this is the truth!

"You silly girl, who else could it be if not me?"

Seeing Mao Ruxue looking suspicious, Chen Chang'an couldn't help but give her a knock on the head.

Sometimes Chen Chang'an really can't understand where these absurd ideas in his cheap Junior Sister's head come from.

"Senior Brother, you hit my head again~!"

After being knocked on the head by Chen Chang'an, Mao Ruxue pouted.

She had a feeling that if this continued, one day she would be knocked silly by her Senior Brother.

This damn Senior Brother!

"Thank you, Senior Immortal, for saving my life~!"

At this moment, Chen Yi's father walked up and respectfully bowed to Chen Chang'an.

Chen Chang'an shook his head and said, "Brother Chen, there's no need for such formalities. It's our duty as cultivators to help those in need."

"Moreover, you are Chen Yi's father. If I didn't help, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to pass this kid's test."

At the end of his words, Chen Chang'an made a joke.

"Thank you very much for saving my life."

Chen's father didn't pay attention to Chen Chang'an's words. How could he not be grateful for such a life-saving grace?

And in the conversation just now, he also learned that Chen Chang'an had taken in Chen Yi.

This is also a great favor!

"Brother Chen, this is our first time in the Great Wilderness, and we are unfamiliar with the place."

"If you want to thank me, why not be our guide for the next few days?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Chang'an said so.

"Good~!"

Chen's father nodded happily at the words.

Wuwuwu~!

At this time, Chen Chang'an walked into the temple.

And at this moment, because of his arrival, the beasts in the temple were all trembling nervously.

They looked at Chen Chang'an in fear, retreating step by step.

Although the wild beasts are not Demonic Beasts, they also have a certain level of intelligence.

They had keenly felt the terrifying power when Chen Chang'an single-handedly fought against the darkness just now.

The immense terror of the dark sky was already a deadly threat to them, and now there appeared a figure who could single-handedly resist the dark sky.

Which one is more terrifying between the two, isn't it obvious?

So, they were all in awe.

But fortunately, Chen Chang'an didn't seem to have any intention towards them. He just brought everyone back to where they were before and sat down quietly, waiting for the dawn to come.

Yes, waiting for the dawn to come.

Although Chen Chang'an drove away the darkness, it was only temporary.

If he wanted to cross this infinite darkness by himself, it was possible.

But if he wanted to bring Mao Ruxue and others along, it would be impossible. The level of danger would greatly increase, and Chen Chang'an didn't want to take that risk.

It's just a matter of waiting for the dawn, a few hours of time, waiting a bit is also fine.

Kakaka~!

A night without words~!

Soon, with the appearance of a rooster's crow from somewhere in the world, a gentle slanting sunbeam penetrated through the sky.

Then, a blazing sun gradually rose in the sky, and after this blazing sun rose, the sky in the vast wilderness gradually brightened.

It was dawn.

"Let's go."

When the sky was completely bright, Chen Chang'an said to everyone.

At this moment, there was no one else in the temple except for them.

As for those wild beasts, they had already left when the first ray of sunlight appeared on the horizon.

Some of them were afraid of Chen Chang'an, while others were based on the laws of the wilderness.

During the night, the beasts would not fight each other, and this situation would continue until an hour after dawn the next day.

After an hour of faint light, the killing between heaven and earth would begin again.

This was the law that all things in the wilderness followed and accepted.

With the addition of Chen's father, the speed of the group's journey became much faster.

After less than a day's journey, when it was getting dark, they arrived at the small village where Chen Yi was.

This place was called Xiahe Village, a small village leaning down the Great Wilderness Mountain. There were about one or two hundred people living in the village, about fifty households.

To be honest, this kind of village was not considered small, especially in the environment of the Great Wilderness Mountain.

"Immortal, please!"

As soon as Chen Chang'an and his group returned, they immediately attracted a lot of attention from the villagers, who were curious about this legendary immortal.

Then, when they heard Chen's father say that Chen Chang'an had single-handedly fought against the darkness, their curiosity about Chen Chang'an and his group instantly turned into endless admiration.

A person who could repel the darkness,

There probably wasn't one in the entire Great Wilderness!

Amazing, unimaginable!

In addition to this, when they heard that Chen Yi had become Chen Chang'an's disciple, the group deeply envied Chen Yi's family.

Who said this silly boy was foolish? Didn't he just go out and come back with a powerful master?

This was the fortune of the Great Wilderness!

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Chang'an and his group had been in Xiahe Village for three days.

During these three days, Chen Chang'an would spend some time alone every day, sometimes discussing secrets about the Great Wilderness Mountain with Chen's father or the elders of Xiahe Village.

His purpose in doing so was to find the Holy Spirit Ancient Tree.

After three days of investigation, Chen Chang'an finally confirmed one thing: the Holy Spirit Ancient Tree was indeed in the Great Wilderness.

And it wasn't far from where they were.

On this night, with a clear moon and sparse stars, Chen Chang'an sat alone on a hilltop at the entrance of Xiahe Village.

He looked at the scenery of the Great Wilderness Mountain, lost in thought.

As a village in the Great Wilderness Mountain, Xiahe Village naturally had its own guardian.

However, the guardian of Xiahe Village was not an ancient tree or a temple, but an endless cliff abyss.

This abyss separated Xiahe Village from the Great Wilderness Mountain, preventing the darkness of the Great Wilderness Mountain from invading here.

On top of that abyss, there was the only means of transportation between Xiahe Village and the Great Wilderness Mountain.

This material had been called the "Reincarnation Vine" by the people of the Great Wilderness Mountain for generations.

This was the information Chen Chang'an had obtained from Chen's father.

According to Chen's father, the existence of the Reincarnation Vine could not be traced back in time. The only thing he knew was that the Reincarnation Vine had existed since the beginning of Xiahe Village.

The Reincarnation Vine was a strange plant stem that grew deep into the abyss.

Every morning, the roots of the Reincarnation Tree, which were the Reincarnation Vine, would extend from the depths of the abyss and then rest on the cliffs at both ends of the abyss, basking in the sunlight.

Then, as night approached, these vines of the Reincarnation Vine would retract.

Invisible, this cut off the only passage between Xiahe Village and the Great Wilderness Mountain.

As a result, Xiahe Village had rarely been attacked by wild beasts for countless years.

And because the darkness could not cross that abyss, they were rarely invaded by darkness.

Occasionally, someone would die under the engulfment of darkness, but that was because they stayed out hunting or trading and came back late, it was their fate.

What caught Chen Chang'an's attention was the Reincarnation Vine.

"Kid, are you really sure?"

"You have to think it through, there may be great terror beneath this cliff abyss."

"If you go down and can't come back up, then you really won't be able to come back up."

At this moment, Kidney Deficiency's Spirit Body materialized and sat down next to Chen Chang'an, then he said to Chen Chang'an.

While speaking, Kidney Deficiency also took a glance at the abyss below.

With just one glance, his whole body couldn't help but tremble.

That was a palpitation-inducing feeling.

"Mm, decided." Hearing Kidney Deficiency's words, Chen Chang'an nodded.

He understood what Kidney Deficiency was concerned about.

But since they had already come, he naturally had to go down and take a look.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste to come all this way for nothing?

"Alright, it's up to you."

Kidney Deficiency nodded helplessly, then looked at Chen Chang'an and let out a long sigh.

"Ah, I just can't understand. Why do you like to court death so much?"

Whether Chen Chang'an liked to court death or not, Kidney Deficiency really didn't want to bother with it.

But damn it, now his life was tied to this kid!

Once this kid led the way, he probably wouldn't be able to escape either.

Damn it!

If I had known earlier, I would have endured a little longer.

Who knows how I fell for this kid's trick, making me live in constant fear every day.

"Heh."

Seeing Kidney Deficiency's expression, Chen Chang'an immediately guessed what he was thinking and couldn't help but smile.

He would never do anything that would risk his life.

"Let's go, old man. Life or death will be decided tonight."

Chen Chang'an didn't tell Kidney Deficiency that ever since he came to this small river village, the boundless Immortal Dao within his body had been boiling.

Especially when he approached this Life-Seeking Vine, this boiling sensation reached its peak.

They were constantly jumping inside Chen Chang'an's body, making him feel like he could Ascend at any moment, extremely comfortable.

It was this feeling that made Chen Chang'an certain that the opportunity he was looking for was here.

His way of cultivation was different from ordinary people. Others needed to slowly cultivate and comprehend, but he didn't.

He had already reached the pinnacle of all paths and ways, and now he only lacked an opportunity to break through.

To seek revenge and kill in the Saint Realm was to settle this life's cause and effect.

Once the cause and effect were settled, everything would be over, and he would ascend.

Like the Heavenly Earth Wen Palace, there he received the blessing of the Heavenly Earth Confucian Way and integrated all the Confucian Ways he had learned.

Finally, he imprinted the Dao into the heavens and earth, becoming a Semi-Saint of the Confucian Nine Realms, and even achieved the highest position of the Supreme Saint.

Now, the same was true for the Holy Spirit Ancient Tree here. As long as Chen Chang'an found it, half of the task would be completed.

"Emmm, alright, as long as you don't regret it later."

Kidney Deficiency was helpless, with a bitter face, and followed behind Chen Chang'an.

"But kid, aren't you bringing that little elephant with you?"

Kidney Deficiency asked again.

To be honest, when exploring something like this, the more powerful experts there were, the safer it felt.

Kidney Deficiency knew the depth of the Prison Town Divine Elephant, and having Little Purple Elephant with him would make him feel more at ease.

"Let it stay up there. There's no point in bringing it down."

Chen Chang'an said.

"Alright." Kidney Deficiency gave up struggling.

"Rise!"

The next moment, Chen Chang'an let out a cold snort, and then, a halo suddenly appeared around him.

These halos enveloped him and Kidney Deficiency, and under this hazy halo, the two of them looked as sacred as gods descending to earth.

"Descend!"

After doing all this, Chen Chang'an took a step forward. The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already in the depths of the endless abyss.

"Goodness! What is this?!"

When the two arrived at the depths of the earth and saw the scene here, they were both stunned.

At this moment, in the depths of the abyss, there appeared an entrance to a Great World.

And within that Great World, there stood a towering ancient tree several million zhang tall, with seven colors interweaving and entwining its trunk.

The ancient tree was misty, with leaves of seven colors, and its branches were lush.

Around it, a misty immortal aura enveloped and countless pure white cranes flew around.

It was truly beautiful here, like a fairyland.

Undoubtedly, this was the Holy Spirit Ancient Tree!
