The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

Zeng Wenyu fell silent upon hearing this. All he had explained before sounded meaningless to the Innate Tree in front of him. Fortunately, it understood one thing: the power it got from Zeng Wenyu could allow it to evolve to a higher level, and that was enough.

"Yes, this power can slowly change the innate energy in your body, making you more powerful in the future."

"Wow!" Xiantianzhimu's voice was a little excited, but it calmed down after a few minutes. "This is a good thing, but what do I have to pay for it?"

"Well... originally I wanted to take you away, because I need to gather the five elements of innate energy to practice, but if you don't want to, then forget it. I won't force you to leave with me."

"Really?"

"real!"

The Xiantian Tree was silent, and time passed little by little. Just when Zeng Wenyu thought that the Xiantian Tree was going to refuse, it suddenly spoke: "If that's all, I can leave here with you, but I want to stay behind to maintain the layout here, okay?"

"Okay!" Zeng Wenyu agreed happily, "You can do whatever you want with this matter, and I can also see that this place is very important. I originally wanted to persuade you to leave some of your strength here."

"Then let's put it this way. I will leave some of my strength here to Sister Bai, and then I will go with you. But it may take a few days."

"No hurry." After nodding and saying this to Xiantian Zhimu, Zeng Wenyu finally felt relieved. He turned to look at Long Lin, "Senior, is there anything else on this island that I need to do for you? During this time, I will also help you do some things within my ability."

The dragon scales glowed silver, and his voice rang out in Zeng Wenyu's mind: "Then I won't be polite with you. My main body has placed me here and I can't move. There are already some things in the White Mist Forest that need to be cleaned up. You and I are powerless from a distance. You just need to help me clean up the evil spirits around me."

Zeng Wenyu agreed and let Su Qing and the others return to their bodies and walk out of the barrier.

As soon as he walked out of the barrier, Mu Zhi and Xiao Xue came to his side, circled around him a few times, and stared at Zeng Wenyu.

Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by Xiaoxue and Mu Zhi, Zeng Wenyu quickly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you staring at me? Is there something on me?"

"You don't feel anything?" Mu Zhi asked in surprise.

"How do you feel?"

"Not long after you entered the barrier, Sister Mu Zhi and I saw you surrounded by a cloud of black air. If Sister Mu Zhi and I hadn't sensed that you were not in any danger, we would have rushed in and dragged you out."

Hearing Xiaoxue say this, Zeng Wenyu scratched his head. He knew that the so-called being wrapped in black air should be when he touched the dragon scales and was pulled into that strange space. He was somewhat glad that Mu Zhi and Xiaoxue did not impulsively break into the barrier. The black air was the resentment of the sea people absorbed by the dragon scales and the scales that Bai Miluo arranged in various places. If he had not been lucky enough to have the help of those two unclear figures, he would definitely be driven crazy by the huge resentment. Mu Zhi and Xiaoxue might not necessarily have the help of those two figures. If they rushed into the barrier rashly, they would at least be driven crazy by the resentment, or even have their minds wiped out by the resentment.

"Fortunately you didn't act impulsively," Zeng Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Mu Zhi and Xiao Xue in front of him. "I was lucky that nothing happened to me, but it's not without gain. At least the Xiantian Tree was willing to leave with me."

"So are we not leaving now?"

"Leave? No, Xiantian Wood still has some things to do. During this time, let's help Senior to clear out the evil spirits around."

Mu Zhi and Xiao Xue nodded, and the two followed Zeng Wenyu to leave here. They began to clear out the evil spirits around them.

After seeing Zeng Wenyu and the other two walking away, a silver-white light from Long Lin's body rested on Xiantian Zhimu's body: "Mumu, are you sure you want to go with him?"

"Well, he can help me move to a higher place. I don't want to refuse him. Sister Bai, don't you want me to leave? If you don't want me to leave, I will stay here with you."

"No need. When He left you here, He told me that if one day you want to leave, He will let you leave freely. But there will be no one to talk to me in the future. Maybe... I will feel a little lonely, right?"

"Well... then Sister Bai, I won't leave. Can I stay here with you?"

"No, I can't let you lose your future because of me, and I only need a little bit of your strength here," Long Lin gently rejected Mu Mu's proposal, "You can come back to see me in human form in the future."

"Sister Bai..." Although the innate Mumumu was still in the form of a blade of grass, Long Lin could still hear the sob in its voice.

"Okay, okay, you're not a child anymore. After you leave here, you have to learn to take care of yourself. Although I can feel that Zeng Wenyu will definitely not treat you badly, you still have to be nice to yourself."

"Yes, I know, Sister Bai, you have to take good care of yourself after I leave, and you must miss me. I will definitely come back to see you!"

As Mumu said this, its body began to glow slowly. In the faint green light, a small grass separated from its body. The grass flickered, as if it would disappear at any time.

A blade of grass was placed on the grass, and the green energy was continuously transmitted from Mumu to the newly born grass. The grass, which was originally flickering, gradually stabilized, and then hairy roots gradually grew at the bottom. Those hairy roots slowly took root beside the dragon scales. Mumu left the innate wood that he had separated next to the dragon scales, letting it accompany the dragon scales.

I don't know how long it took, but the grass finally grew up and reached half the height of Mumu. Mumu stopped inputting energy into the grass. Compared with the newly grown grass, Mumu was obviously much weaker. It created a clone out of thin air and input enough energy to stabilize the clone. Even the current Mumu could not support it. Fortunately, the yin and yang energies in its body were helping it recover quickly.

The sun in the sky gradually set, and the sky became darker and darker until it set in the west. Zeng Wenyu and the other three finally reappeared outside the barrier where Long Lin and Mumu were. During this time, they had cleared out all the evil spirits they could find nearby. Those evil spirits were not powerful, and they were in good condition. If it hadn't been night, they would even want to walk further away.

After coming back, they did not urge or ask Long Lin and Mu Mu. They just found an open place near the altar to rest. Here they were not afraid that the human-faced trees would attack them. With Long Lin and the Innate Tree around, those human-faced trees did not dare to act rashly here.
