Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

As night fell, the shores of Plum Blossom Lake in Yaolin Secret Garden gradually grew quiet. Stars twinkled, and the lake reflected the brilliance of the sky, as if a river of stars flowed beneath their feet.

Everyone sat together, enjoying this rare quiet moment while discussing the next course of action.

Xue Yao looked at Qing Yi and said, "Qing Yi, do you have any new insights? For tomorrow's route, we..."

"Yes," Qing Yi said without hesitation. He sensed a strong energy fluctuation over a hundred miles away. "Perhaps there will be new discoveries there."

Xue Yao smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then everyone should have a good rest tonight and get enough rest. Tomorrow morning, we will head there."

Everyone nodded and returned to their own residences, ready to face the challenges of the next day. The stars on the shores of Plum Blossom Lake were still bright, as if foreshadowing that their future path would be filled with light.

The next morning, after breakfast, everyone left the secret garden in high spirits, ready to set off for the place where Qingyi sensed energy fluctuations.

Xue Yao looked around and confirmed that everyone was ready, then said, "Everyone, today we have to face a new challenge. We'll find out if there's an opportunity. Let's go!"

Everyone responded in unison, then spread their bodies, transforming into streams of light and speeding towards their destination. In the heavens, they were already accustomed to this method of flying through the air, and it was extremely fast. It didn't take long for them to reach the location that Qing Yi had sensed.

This was a somewhat desolate valley, shrouded in a faint mist. The southern slope of the valley had once collapsed, leaving behind exposed rocky soil and little vegetation, like a large scar.

There is also a huge crack at the foot of the mountain, and strong energy fluctuations are constantly emanating from the crack.

"This is it." Qingyi landed on the ground and said while staring at the crack.

Xueyao nodded, carefully observing her surroundings, and said, "Everyone, be careful. There might be danger here. Let's investigate the situation first."

Earlier, when she was flying near this valley, she had sensed something. So, once she was above it, she cast a large barrier that covered the entire valley and the surrounding mountains.

Everyone dispersed, casting spells and carefully exploring every corner of the valley.

There was a faint energy fluctuation in the air, as if telling of the extraordinary nature of this place.

Xue Yao walked to the edge of the crack and observed the huge fissure intently. Deep in the crack, she saw faint flickering lights, as if countless stars were floating in it.

"This crack hasn't been around long." Xue Yao pondered, "Perhaps this is another opportunity for us."

Renhu nodded and said, "It seems we have found an unusual place. Perhaps some precious resources are hidden here."

"Yes, it's a fairy crystal vein." She had only suspected it before, but after arriving at the valley, she released her spiritual sense to check, and she was also very surprised. It was indeed a fairy crystal vein, and its range was very wide.

Immortal crystals are an extremely precious cultivation resource, containing pure immortal energy and greatly helping to improve one's cultivation. If there really is an immortal crystal vein here, it would undoubtedly be a huge fortune for them.

Furthermore, Immortal Crystals could be exchanged for the immortal coins commonly circulated in the heavens. In some large-scale events, Immortal Crystals could even be used directly for exchange.

"Immortal crystal vein?" Yun Duoduo approached the crack curiously and whispered, "Could it be the same immortal crystal vein found in the Yaolin Secret Garden?"

Xiao Lin'er's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said, "Haha, if this is really a vein of immortal crystals, then we're going to make a fortune again. Immortal crystals are extremely precious materials for cultivation."

Su Xin smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, let's explore it first. Immortal Crystal veins are not so easy to mine."

Everyone nodded and began to explore every corner of the valley more carefully. Xue Yao set up a series of magic arrays around the edges of the cracks, just in case.

At this moment, Qing Yi's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "Everyone be careful! I sense a powerful energy approaching!"

Before he finished speaking, a huge shadow suddenly appeared over the valley. Everyone looked up and saw a huge bird circling over the valley, greed gleaming in its eyes.

"This is a ferocious beast from the heavens, the Golden-winged Roc!" Qing Yi said solemnly, "It must have been attracted here by the energy fluctuations."

A hint of determination flashed in Xueyao's eyes, and she raised her hand to inject the power of the stars into the great barrier.

At this moment, looking up from within the barrier, one can see a starry sky. But looking down from the outside, one can only see a vast expanse of fog.

Xue Yao said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about it. Let's take this vein first."

After she asked everyone to retreat to the other side, she raised her hand and opened a hole.

After moving all the excess dust aside, they continued to expand the tunnel. After a while, when the tunnel was more than half a mile deep, they encountered a vein of fairy crystals.

She took out some, flew it over to her eyes, and saw that it was indeed top-grade immortal crystal.

Xue Yao nodded with satisfaction and said, "The quality of this immortal crystal is quite good. It is indeed a huge fortune for us."

Ren Hu's eyes sparkled with excitement as he said, "With these immortal crystals, our cultivation speed will be greatly improved, and we can even exchange them for more resources."

Xiao Liner smiled and said, "Yes, with these immortal crystals, we can not only improve our cultivation, but also purchase more defense and training facilities."

Su Xin smiled slightly and said, "However, we must also be careful. Once the news of this immortal crystal vein gets out, I'm afraid it will attract the covetousness of various forces in the heavenly realm."

A hint of determination flashed in Yun Duoduo's eyes, and she said, "We must protect this secret and not let outsiders know. At the same time, we must mine it as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."

Xue Yao nodded and said, "Su Xin is right. We must keep this confidential. At the same time, we must be cautious when mining the Immortal Crystal veins and not damage the environment here."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Xue Yao continued, "Next, we'll split up. Some will be responsible for mining the immortal crystals, while others will be on guard to prevent outsiders from breaking in."

Qing Yi nodded and said, "I will be in charge of the alert. If I find any abnormal situation, I will notify everyone immediately."

Ren Hu smiled and said, "Then I will be responsible for mining the immortal crystals and ensure that the task is completed as soon as possible."

Suxin, Xiaolin'er and Yunduoduo also expressed their willingness to join the mining.

Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, Xue Yao felt warm in her heart and said, "Mining won't be a big problem, but vigilance cannot be underestimated. Renhu, Qingyi, Duoduo, and Lin'er, the four of you will be responsible for vigilance and guard your respective areas."

"Yes." The four people responded, looked at each other, and then flew out separately, arriving at the location in an instant.

Xue Yao looked at Bao Ling again and asked, "Baoling, can you still conjure up long arms to protect me while I go to collect the immortal crystals, just like you did in Xiangshui Village in the human world?"
