Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

But someone else responded, "No, the artifacts we obtained there are still there."

Everyone looked down at the artifacts in their hands, their hearts filled with indescribable excitement. Although the island had disappeared, it was not a dream or an illusion, but a real existence.

They looked up at the sea, as if they could still see where the island once stood, and their hearts were filled with emotion.

The group left the island and came to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers.

"Let's take a break." Xue Yao stopped and looked at everyone with a smile. "Everyone is very satisfied with their new artifacts and must be looking forward to it. Let's give it a try."

Everyone nodded upon hearing this. They were indeed quite impatient, eager to test out the power of their newly acquired magical weapon.

Xue Yao looked at everyone's excitement, smiled slightly, and led everyone into the secret garden.

The Secret Garden now seemed boundless. Under Su Xin's meticulous care, every corner looked pleasant. Furthermore, it was filled with abundant spiritual energy, bringing joy to the heart.

As soon as everyone stepped into the secret garden, they felt a fresh breeze blowing towards them, as if they were in a paradise.

Xue Yao urged everyone, "This time, you all have obtained new artifacts. You must familiarize yourself with them as quickly as possible so that you can use them better. Go practice hard!"

After everyone nodded in agreement, they each found a suitable place and began to test their newly acquired artifacts.

Xue Yu flew to the top of a mountain, holding the Phoenix Dance Dagger, and gently swung it. A flash of cold light appeared, and the stone on the ground was instantly split in half. He was amazed, not expecting the Phoenix Dance Dagger to be so powerful.

Bao Ling put on the jeweled armor and felt a surge of power rushing into his body. He tried to throw a punch, but the wind whistled and the air seemed to be torn apart.

Renhu brandished his scimitar, and the blade flashed as if it wanted to cut everything off.

Qing Yi played the Heavenly Sound Jade Flute. When the melodious sound of the flute rang out, everyone felt refreshed, as if all their fatigue had disappeared.

Xueyao ascended Peach Blossom Mountain. In the center of the pavilion stood a large stone plate shaped like a peach blossom. Raising her hand, she cast a barrier, intending to carefully comprehend the wonders of the golden light emanating from the goddess's statue.

After sitting cross-legged, she closed her eyes, mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and began to circulate.

Gradually, she felt as if she had entered a magical world, full of light and color.

In the light, she saw the goddess statue and her kind and gentle eyes. The goddess statue seemed to be telling her something, but she could not hear it clearly.

Xue Yao tried hard to listen and feel. Suddenly, she felt a powerful force coming from the goddess statue, which transformed into spiritual power in her body.

And this power seemed to have known her for a long time, like an old friend, constantly tempering her meridians and acupoints.

Xue Yao was delighted. Since the statue of the goddess was sealed on the island together with those sacred artifacts, she thought that the power it could bring to her would not be too ordinary.

She didn't dare to slack off at all, and immediately concentrated her mind and absorbed this power with all her strength.

She felt as if her body had been reshaped, becoming lighter and stronger. Her cultivation was also constantly improving. If she didn't suppress it, it might cause trouble.

She still has many things to do in this world and cannot leave yet.

She began to suppress it actively, and the power seemed to be obedient and gradually weakened.

Unexpectedly, this suppression, for some reason, caused her mind to become somewhat confused. Then, she experienced the same situation as when she was nearing the end of her first retreat in Biyun Cave.

That voice sounded in her mind again.

"Your mother is dead, dead..."

Xue Yao suddenly opened her eyes, and the cinnabar plum on her forehead flashed a red light. She tried to stay calm and not be affected by the voice.

That voice was her nightmare, her inner demon, the fear and anxiety deep within her heart. She couldn't let these emotions control her, otherwise, she would fall into endless darkness.

At this moment, Su Xin, who was dancing with the Su Xin sword skillfully, suddenly felt a strange breath.

She released her spiritual sense and discovered that the aura came from the direction of Taohua Mountain.

Xueyao? Xueyao likes to practice in Taohua Mountain, so nothing will happen to her.

Su Xin's heart tightened, but without thinking too much, she immediately put away her sword and flew towards Taohua Mountain, not forgetting to send a message to others along the way.

When she arrived, others had also arrived. She saw Xue Yao sitting cross-legged on a peach blossom stone platform surrounded by spiritual energy, with her eyes closed, practicing.

That strange aura was emanating from Xue Yao's body, and it was getting stronger and stronger.

Su Xin knew that this was a critical moment in Xue Yao's cultivation, but she seemed to have encountered some obstacles.

"What's wrong with the Immortal Lord?" Renhu asked anxiously and concernedly.

Yun Duoduo took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Xueyao looks a little disturbed."

Xiao Lin'er looked at his mother worriedly, but did not cry out.

"Hurry, release the spiritual power together." Su Xin's mind was working quickly and she said to everyone anxiously.

When everyone heard her, they understood her meaning and immediately united to protect Xue Yao.

Xue Yao herself also realized that something was wrong. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to mobilize the spiritual power in her body to fight against the inner demon.

She felt the inner demon constantly attacking her mind, trying to take over her consciousness, but she resisted firmly, using her spiritual power to build a barrier to isolate the inner demon.

At this moment, Xue Yao suddenly felt a familiar power, which emerged from her dantian like a spring, and quickly merged with her own spiritual power, perfectly matching it, working together to resist the fierce invasion of the inner demon like a tidal wave.

This mysterious power originated from the golden light that the goddess statue had transformed into. This power was so mysterious that it could actually make Xue Yao's originally wavering mind become as solid as a rock and clear and bright in an instant.

In addition, there are several streams of pure spiritual power from the outside world that continue to gather and provide her with strong support and assistance.

As time passed, the inner demon's attack momentum gradually weakened until it completely disappeared.

Xue Yao slowly opened her eyes and felt that her inner world seemed to have undergone a cleansing and baptism that was like a rebirth, becoming more pure and powerful.

She finally got what she wanted, successfully defeated the terrifying and difficult inner demon, and successfully suppressed the somewhat restless power.

Xue Yao looked around and when she cast her eyes on everyone present, she understood everything in her heart, and her eyes were full of gratitude.

"Thank you, I am really lucky to have you here." Xue Yao said softly.

Su Xin, who was standing beside her, raised her lips slightly, revealing a gentle smile. "Don't be so distant with us. As long as you are safe and sound, that's all that matters."
