Danzun War God

Chapter 193 The Tree of Life

"Chirp!"

A phoenix cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth. With the appearance of the fire phoenix, a golden light suddenly surged from the entire Sacred Ancestor Mountain into its body. The entire aura and pressure of the Sacred Ancestor Mountain were displayed through the fire phoenix. Even Han Qi felt extremely uncomfortable; the aura and pressure were too powerful. Lin Yuyao and Bai Junyao were both using their internal energy to resist.

Han Qi sighed inwardly, "Such a powerful aura!" Sure enough, the Thundercloud Beast in the air froze, clearly intimidated by the aura emanating from the Fire Phoenix. The Fire Phoenix then spat out a pillar of fire that enveloped the Thundercloud Beast. No matter how strong the Thundercloud Beast's defense was, it was like burning rotten wood when it encountered the Fire Phoenix's blazing flames.

The Thundercloud Beast panicked and let out a mournful cry as it retreated rapidly, leaving a long trail of black smoke behind it. The Fire Phoenix did not continue to pursue it, but instead flew and circled in the air, its cries echoing through the sky.

The entire Holy Ancestor Mountain seemed to come alive with each phoenix cry, and the mountain began to tremble. Countless demon beasts sensed the appearance of the Demon Ancestor and rushed to pay homage. The demon beasts throughout the entire Demon Realm felt the aura of the Demon Ancestor, but the demon beasts in other places did not feel it as strongly as those on Holy Ancestor Mountain.

Before long, countless demonic beasts gathered below the fire phoenix, but the level of these demonic beasts was rather meager, mostly being sixth or seventh rank demonic beasts.

"Chirp!"

The fire phoenix let out a long cry, and instantly all the demonic beasts responded at the same time, their roars shaking the heavens.

At this moment, the fire phoenix transformed into human form in the air, withdrew its aura, and slowly descended, like a fairy descending to earth.

Immediately, all the monsters cheered and jumped for joy, and dust flew up around the cave, leaving it in a mess.

Tang Siyu stood on a large rock, her clothes fluttering without wind, looking down at the group of demonic beasts with a solemn expression. She raised her hand, and the demonic beasts immediately fell silent. Tang Siyu then slowly said, "All demonic beasts, listen to my command. You all go back first. I will find a way to restore the vitality of the Tree of Life."

Although Tang Siyu's voice was not loud, it had amazing penetrating power. Her voice spread to every corner of the Holy Ancestor Mountain, and all the demon beasts roared in unison and prostrated themselves on the ground.

Only then did Tang Siyu step down under the watchful eyes of the important figures. She immediately reverted to her girlish demeanor, smiled sweetly at Han Qi, and walked over gracefully. However, Han Qi and the two monks had not yet recovered from Tang Siyu's imposing aura.

Tang Siyu waved her hand in front of Han Qi's eyes and said, "Han Qi, are you alright? Your eyeballs have popped out."

Only then did Han Qi snap out of his daze and say in a daze, "Little girl, was that you just now? Even I am impressed by you."

Looking at the two mages, they nodded vigorously, indicating their complete support for Han Qi's statement. Tang Siyu blushed and said, "It seems that the power of the fire phoenix in my body has been fully awakened. I can see many images of the fire phoenix in my soul sea."

At this moment, the demonic beasts below the mountain gradually left, and the group returned to the cave. Tang Siyu then recounted some of the images of the Tree of Life that had appeared in her soul sea.

It turns out that there was once a Tree of Life on this Holy Ancestor Mountain. This Tree of Life provided spiritual energy for the entire demon realm. Because the cultivation requirements of demon beasts are higher than those of the other three realms, the Tree of Life was always nurtured by the Fire Phoenix. Therefore, the demon realm revered the Fire Phoenix as the ancestor of demon beasts, and even the Demon King had to kneel and worship her.

However, during that chaotic war among the four realms, the Tree of Life was destroyed, and even the Fire Phoenix, the ancestor of all demon beasts, was killed.

It is widely believed that the destruction of the Tree of Life severed the source of spiritual energy for the demon race's cultivation, leading to the decline of the demon realm. This also explains why the demon realm has remained aloof from worldly affairs and disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, Han Qi asked, "Little girl, you told the demon beasts that you wanted to restore the vitality of the Tree of Life. Is there any way to do so?"

Tang Siyu frowned and shook her head, saying, "I have a very strong feeling that the Tree of Life can restore itself. It's like the Tree of Life itself can restore itself. I don't know how to express this feeling. It's just a very normal feeling."

Han Qi nodded thoughtfully and said, "I reckon the restoration of the Tree of Life is inseparable from the Fire Phoenix. Otherwise, the Demon Realm wouldn't have failed to revive the Tree of Life after all these years. Your feeling must be instinctive."

Tang Siyu sighed and said, "Unfortunately, I can't find any method to restore the Tree of Life in my memory, but it is definitely possible to restore it."

"My deductions about the Tree of Life are completely useless; I can't deduce any information," Lin Yuyao said dejectedly.

“Well, according to my speculation, this Tree of Life is completely beyond the Four Realms and outside the Five Elements, so it cannot be deduced,” Bai Junyao said slowly.

"Well, let's leave it to fate! I believe we will find a way to restore the Tree of Life," Han Qi said firmly.

As soon as Han Qi finished speaking, they felt a powerful aura sweep over them. Everyone was startled and quickly got up and rushed out of the cave.

"Which of you is the Skywalker?" At that moment, a dark demon from the demon realm hovered in the air, looking down at the group.

"Lord!" Han Qi recognized the powerful figure from the other realm at a glance. The first time he met him was in the vast and mysterious Dreamless Realm.

Behind the Lord were several Thundercloud Beasts, who were also staring at them menacingly. The one in the lead was the same one that had been burned by Tang Siyu's Heaven-Burning Flames, and it was now glaring angrily at Tang Siyu.

“That’s right! It is indeed I! So you must be the Skywalker?” the Venerable One said calmly.

Han Qi's heart sank. Looking at their lineup, Han Qi pondered how to deal with this Venerable Lord while saying, "May I ask what advice the Venerable Lord has for me?"

"To learn from your teachings? Today, I'm going to take your lives," the Venerable One said coldly.

"We have no past grievances or recent enmity, so why do you repeatedly make us your enemy?" Han Qi said sternly.

"Heh, is that so? I heard from the Demon God that you have been hindering our construction of the Heavenly Ladder Formation. Do you know the fate of those who obstruct our Heavenly Ladder Formation? Death without mercy!" The Venerable said, each word distinct, and a chill immediately spread around him.

The chill sent shivers down Han Qi's spine.

Han Qi's heart sank. Could it be that he had already mastered the Nine Yin Divine Skill? If so, was it already too late to save Xie Wanying?

He then said, "In order to master the Nine Yin Divine Skill, you need to absorb the profound Yin energy of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine women. This is too inhumane and devoid of humanity. I am going to do justice and destroy you!"

The Venerable One snorted coldly upon hearing this and said, "Heh! You know quite a lot. To tell you the truth, with these two old men beside you, I've gathered them all. Next, I'll absorb the profound yin energy of these nine hundred and ninety-nine women, and the great task will be complete."
