Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

When they stepped into the palace, they saw that the interior was magnificently decorated with gold and jade, and all kinds of treasures and exotic decorations were everywhere, which was dazzling.

Inside this magnificent palace, the floor is covered with a thick, incredibly soft cloud silk carpet. When your feet step onto this carpet, the touch feels like stepping on soft clouds, and every step is as light and dreamy as strolling through a fairyland in the clouds.

Xue Yao and the Demon King continued walking forward, awestruck by the sight before her. The palace walls shimmered with a shimmering light, as if inlaid with countless gemstones. Ornate decorations and exquisite carvings were everywhere, showcasing unparalleled artistic charm.

In the center of the hall, there is a huge fountain, with water splashing in all directions, forming beautiful water curtains. The water droplets sparkle with colorful lights under the sunlight, just like a strange scene in fairyland.

Xueyao was intoxicated by all of this. She couldn't help but reach out her hand, wanting to touch the dreamy mist. At this moment, she suddenly felt a powerful force coming from her fingertips...

This power quickly spread throughout her body, making her feel an unprecedented vitality. The Demon King also felt this power, and his eyes revealed a hint of surprise and excitement.

They realized that the palace hid not only wealth and beauty, but also some mysterious power.

As they continued their exploration, they discovered that every corner of the palace was filled with wondrous mechanisms and magic. Before a seemingly ordinary wall, the Demon King spotted an ancient symbol. He gently touched it, and the wall slowly opened, revealing a staircase descending. They exchanged a glance and decided to explore further.

The stairs lead to a subterranean chamber filled with ancient books and scrolls, as well as some strange magical instruments. Xueyao was fascinated by this ancient wisdom and began to study the books carefully, hoping to find clues about the jade pendant and this mysterious land.

The Demon King looked around in the secret room and found a huge crystal ball with stars slowly rotating inside.

He placed his hand on the crystal ball, and a stream of information flooded into his mind.

In an instant, memories came flooding back, leaving him in disbelief.

This place turned out to be his former home, an ancient and powerful kingdom.

A complex emotion welled up in the Demon King's heart, a mixture of nostalgia for the past and anticipation for the future. He realized that the jade pendant not only connected them to this land, but also connected him to his lost past.

Xue Yao noticed the Demon King's abnormality and asked softly, "Demon King, are you okay?"

The demon king came back to his senses, his eyes gleaming with surprise. He replied, "I'm fine, Fairy Xueyao. It's just that this crystal ball reminds me of many past events."

He took a deep breath. It seemed that exploring this land would reveal some of his own secrets.

"Oh? That's great. What did you remember?" Xue Yao opened her big almond eyes and looked at the Demon King with sparkling eyes.

The demon king saw his own shadow in those big watery eyes, and he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

In short, there is excitement and thrill.

Facing Xueyao's expectant look, he smiled indulgently, "It's still a little confusing. I'll tell you when it's clear."

"Okay." Xue Yao didn't press the issue any further. She felt she should try not to disturb the Demon King and let him think things over.

However, she was still very curious. This place was actually related to the Demon King. Could it be his lair?

Could it be that he was originally the demon king, and came to Xuantian Cave just to return to his old lair?

But why did he return to the human world as Qiufeng Sword? Could it be that he was injured and transformed back into his original form as a white fox?

He was injured so badly, could there be any explanation?

The white fox was injured, and the young man in white was injured at about the same time. Could there be some connection?

Hey, look at this head, what's going on? Why is he linking the white fox and the young man in white together?

Xue Yao shook her head, trying to get rid of these messy thoughts from her mind.

She knew that the most important thing now was to continue exploring this mysterious place and looking for possible clues.

She turned, her eyes once again resting on the books and scrolls.

The Demon King continued to gaze into the crystal ball, trying to sort out the fragments of memory that were pouring in. He felt that his past was closely connected to this land, and the resurgence of these memories seemed to foreshadow a fateful reunion.

He took a deep breath and decided to turn his attention to the secret room in front of him, looking for clues that might help them solve more mysteries.

The two of them were busy with their own things. There was no other sound in the palace except the sound of them flipping through books and occasional whispers.

Time passed unknowingly until Xueyao discovered an ancient legend in a yellowed scroll, which seemed to be inextricably linked to the jade pendant and the demon king's past.

Looking at the words on the scroll, she whispered, "In ancient times, there was a powerful demon king who protected the peace and prosperity of this land. However, a sudden disaster struck, and to protect his people, the demon king was forced to seal a portion of his power into a jade pendant. He hid the pendant in a mysterious place, waiting for someone with a destiny to awaken it."

The Demon King's heart trembled when he heard Xue Yao's chanting. He realized that this legendary Demon King was none other than himself, and that everything he had experienced had led to this day. He slowly walked towards Xue Yao, a determined glint in his eyes.

"Fairy Xueyao, I think I understand." The Demon King's voice was filled with a hint of relief. "The jade pendant is not only the key to open the palace, it also carries my power and memories."

Xue Yao raised her head, her eyes full of respect and trust for the Demon King.

She knew that what they were about to uncover was not only the secret of the jade pendant, but also the past of the Demon King and the deeper truth hidden in this land.

Regardless of her surroundings, the sight before her still amazed her.

Xue Yao couldn't help but sigh: "This palace is so magnificent!"

The demon king smiled and said to himself, "This is my palace, so it must be magnificent."

The walls of the palace sparkle with crystal light, as if inlaid with countless gems. Gorgeous decorations and exquisite carvings are everywhere, showing unparalleled artistic charm.

Xue Yao asked curiously, "Where did these gems and carvings come from?"

The demon king explained, "These are treasures I have collected over the years, meticulously crafted by skilled craftsmen."

Xue Yao turned to look at the Demon King, smiling without saying a word.

The demon king hurriedly asked, "Xueyao, what's wrong with you?"

After asking, he suddenly realized that his memory of this place had returned. Everything in the past seemed to come back to his mind.

Pictures emerged in my mind as it rippled.

He saw the history of the heavens, felt the connection between heaven and earth, and the mission carried by the jade pendant. It turned out that the jade pendant was a symbol of peace between heaven and earth, and a bridge connecting the two worlds.

The Demon King and Xue Yao exchanged a glance, and he told her everything. They understood their responsibilities: they must protect the jade pendant and ensure the harmonious coexistence of heaven and earth.

As their resolve grew stronger, the image in the crystal ball gradually faded, and the light within the palace gradually dimmed. The next moment, they were back in the stone chamber.
