Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 550 Top Three Grades

"One soul, one treasure. The treasure varies depending on the level of cultivation the soul possessed in life."

An elderly man with a wrinkled face and a white beard, holding a wooden cane, stroked his beard and spoke slowly:
"Are you all willing to make a deal?"

Opposite it were four men and women with different appearances.

Judging from their appearances, none of them were very old, but they had quite an impressive air about them. In this dense forest full of snakes, insects, and rodents, their clothes were spotless, like scholars on an outing.

Especially the woman in the center, with a face like a full moon and eyes like bright stars, and gorgeous clothes that seem to have been made by the Weaver Girl of the Heavenly Palace, it is clear at a glance that she is no ordinary person.

"It's really strange."

The woman's eyes showed surprise and doubt:

"The Luwu Divine Palace actually has such an ancient and wondrous tree, and it has even developed sentience. The world is truly full of wonders."

?

Although Jianmu has a simple and unsophisticated personality, his cultivation level of the upper three ranks is genuine, and his spiritual perception is keen.

Therefore, it could clearly sense that the other party had no intention of making a deal, but rather had a condescending and scrutinizing air about them, and its face immediately showed displeasure.

"Fellow."

The woman spoke slowly:
"I am Lu Rong of the Dao Seeking Sect, and I have a son, Zhang Tianfang, who is the Vice Sect Master of the Dao Seeking Sect."

Vice Sect Master of the Dao Seeking Sect?

Jianmu's heart skipped a beat.

Since learning the transformation technique from Zhu Ju, it can break free from the earth's constraints and travel around. It has already made deals with several outsiders and has gained some understanding of the Dao Seeking Sect.

As one of the most powerful sects in the world, the deputy sect master of the Dao Asking Sect must be a top-tier expert.

It absolutely cannot afford to offend such people.

"Fairy Lu."

He bowed respectfully at that moment:

"I have long admired the Daoist Sect, and today I have finally met you. It is indeed extraordinary. I have three thousand treasures here, and I would like to choose one as a gift."

With a flick of his sleeve, he caused the mist behind him to surge, and one after another, magical objects appeared.

"Fellow Daoist is actually a Daoist of Many Treasures." Lu Rong looked surprised, but did not show much interest in Jianmu's treasure. As the birth mother of the deputy sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect, although her cultivation was not very high, her knowledge surpassed that of most people in the upper three ranks.

“Spiritual plants take root in spiritual land and are nourished by spiritual energy in order to grow strong. The Daoist Sect has three mountains, which are one of the nodes where spiritual energy gathers in this world. If you want to move here, I can make room for you in this sacred spiritual land.”

?

Jianmu's eyes contracted.

It has been countless years since it gained sentience. Limited by its physical characteristics, it was confined to one place. It only recently broke free and can now roam freely in the world. Although it will be difficult to increase its cultivation by utilizing the spiritual energy of the earth's veins in the future, it has never experienced this feeling of freedom before. Moreover, it now knows that there is a vast world outside that it has never seen with its own eyes, and its heart is filled with hope.

Now that the other party wants it to re-establish itself in a certain place, it is naturally impossible for them to agree.

"Feel sorry."

Jianmu put away the spiritual objects that had appeared behind him, took a step back, and said:

"I have been confined to this corner for many years, and now I just want to travel around and see the sights. I have no intention of settling down for the time being."

"Fellow Daoist," Lu Rong greeted him with a bow.

"As the saying goes, destiny is hard to defy. Fellow Daoist is an ancient spiritual plant with innate supernatural powers that reach the heavens and the earth. You should take root in the ground and reach the nine heavens. How can you neglect your duties and let your own whims dictate your life?"

"Please, fellow Daoist, return with me to fulfill my destiny!"

"You've gone too far!" Jianmu's anger surged, and he fiercely raised his wooden staff:
"You are quite unreasonable, old woman. I have treated you with courtesy and have not offended you, yet you still want to force me to become your family's spiritual plant?"

"This is destiny." Facing Jianmu's anger, Lu Rong smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist, you are attached to appearances."

The Jianmu tree is an ancient spiritual plant with a magical power that is thousands or even tens of thousands of times greater than that of cultivators at the same level, and even more terrifying than a first-grade master. However, its irritability indicates that it has an ordinary temperament and cannot truly unleash the power of its mighty magic, making it relatively easy to deal with.

Lu Rong would never let Jianmu go.

This realm is sealed off by an ancient array and a heavenly prison, making it difficult even for those of superior quality to leave.

However, according to legend, Jianmu has the ability to take mortals directly to the Heavenly Court, and it might be able to break the seal of this realm.

How could we possibly miss such an opportunity?
"Humph!"

Jianmu hummed softly:

"We have nothing to say to each other, so I'll take my leave!" With a tap of its foot, it transformed into a piece of withered wood, while its true form appeared ten miles away using the Wood Escape Technique.

"Want to go?"

Lu Rong gently shook her head:

"In my opinion, although you have many treasures, the one of real value is yourself."

"Now that we've met, I can't let you go."

"Crash..."

Before she could finish speaking, a fiery red chain shot out from her sleeve.

The chains swelled in the wind, instantly extending more than ten miles before landing precisely on the Jianmu tree.

Fire Cloud Chain!
A top-tier divine weapon!
This item was crafted by a top-tier expert using the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire and ancient treasures. It is most adept at locking and capturing all things, and fire overcomes wood. Although the Jianmu tree is an ancient spiritual plant, it is also subject to the restraint of this treasure.

"you……"

Entangled by the fiery chains, Jianmu's figure froze, and his innate Wood Escape Technique was forcibly broken. His expression immediately changed drastically, and he unleashed several Wood-based Divine Lightning bolts.

"boom!"

In an instant, lightning flashed, flames filled the sky, and the ground within a radius of several miles trembled violently.

Hundreds of branches and roots shot into the sky, lashing wildly at the arm-thick fire cloud chain.

No matter what.

The wood fueled the fire.

The whipping of branches and roots did not cause the fire cloud chain to shrink; instead, it ignited a raging fire, making it even more powerful.

With Jianmu's cultivation level, it had already used dozens of different methods in the blink of an eye, but all of them were suppressed. Although it had many methods, they were too monotonous, all based on the wood element among the five elements, and there was not much variation. It was purely driven by its powerful cultivation.

If you encounter a weak person, it's fine, but if you encounter a strong person, you're bound to be limited.

"He has brute strength, but doesn't know how to use it." Lu Rong shook her head slightly, holding the Fire Cloud Chain.

"The spirits of plants and trees are the most foolish, and this is indeed true."

"what?"

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly realized something was wrong. The fire cloud chain wrapped around her, and Jianmu's body shattered.

"Escape?"

"No! The one that appeared in front of me from the very beginning was a fake body. How cunning."

Lu Rong's face was gloomy. She took a step and shot into the sky. A ball of fire appeared beneath her feet. It was briefly suspended under the suppression of the divine palace's air-restriction. At the same time, a huge vertical eye formed by raging flames appeared in mid-air, shining down on an area of ​​hundreds of miles in radius.

Dozens of miles away, a dark green shadow on the ground was clearly visible in the vertical vision.

"Got you!"

Lu Rong turned her head and waved to the four younger people:

"Chase!"

"I have planted a seed of vital energy in it, which can be sensed within a thousand miles."

…………

Thousands of miles away.

The three women appeared at the edge of a body of water.

Upon reaching the island in the middle of the lake, Ming Nianwei looked up at the bright moon in the sky, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Something's not right."

"This doesn't seem to be the exit, but rather a sealed-off area. But why would a divine palace need to be sealed off?"

“I also sensed something was wrong.” Zhou Ruxuan, spear in hand, looked around.
"The Yin energy here is extremely dense, dozens or even hundreds of times stronger than the Xuanbing Cave below the Zhou Mansion. If I cultivate in such a place, my cultivation will definitely advance by leaps and bounds."

“Hmm…” Ming Nianwei nodded slowly, then pointed towards the water:
"The entrance is there; it seems we have no choice but to go in."

The three looked at each other, then glanced at the approaching pursuers in the distance, and sighed helplessly.
