Bodhi Ancient Tree Emerges
After receiving the approval of the Nether Flame Demon Saint, Xiao Yan began to think about what kind of identity to give the Nether Flame Demon Saint.
Considering that he would definitely break through to the Dou Emperor in the future, and that his children would start as Eight-star Dou Sheng, Xiao Yan had another idea.
"..."
The moment their eyes met, the Nether Flame Demon Saint had a bad feeling.
This ominous premonition wasn't life-threatening, but something bad was bound to happen, and he would definitely regret it!
"Ahem, teacher, have you ever thought about where you'll start in your next life?"
Just then, Xiao Yan said something with a fleeting look in his eyes, which made the Nether Flame Demon Saint even more certain of his judgment.
Swallowing the words "I'll leave it to you to handle," the Nether Flame Demon Saint pondered for a moment, then considered changing her mind.
"Since Reincarnation is created by heaven and earth, it's better if you don't interfere—you just need to bring the Nether Flame Demon's Intelligence to me."
After saying that, the Nether Flame Demon Saint drove Xiao Yan out.
Xiao Yan grimaced, but there was nothing he could do. He could only exchange cultivation insights with Candle Star Flame, who was "remembering happy things," and then give him a Pill Beast so that he could break through to the Half-Saint as soon as possible.
The unexpected events at the Space Auction eventually spread.
The Space Auction initially did not have a specific organizer, but it expanded with each event and eventually formed a relatively complete set of rules due to the needs of many participants.
First, there are the organizers, Trading Fair jointly held by three sects: Earthwalker Sect, Kong Xuan Sect, and Treasure Appraisal Mountain.
These three sects are all reclusive sects in the Central Continent, known only to the top experts.
For example, Xiao Yan was able to get to know the Void Venerate of the Kong Xuan Sect through the introduction of Xuan Kongzi, one of the Pill Tower Three Greats.
Of course, since Void Venerate is currently in seclusion breaking through to the Half-Saint, Xiao Yan probably won't need to use the favors he owes.
In conclusion, these three sects all have excellent reputations, are highly trusted by many powerful figures, and are strong enough to overpower the competition, which is why they were chosen as the organizers.
The scale of the Space Auction has grown larger and larger in recent years, and the participants have all vowed to hunt down those who break the rules. This Trading Fair has even revealed information related to the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, an absolute treasure of the Dou Qi Continent.
Just as many powerful figures were looking forward to the Space Auction going further, news spread that the Trading Fair had been destroyed by Soul Hall Master Hun Miesheng.
It's impossible to trace who leaked the news, but everyone accepted it with ease.
It's definitely all the Soul Hall's fault!
As a result, the entire Central Continent was in turmoil, and a new round of hunting down the elders and even the Heavenly Venerate Venerables of the Soul Hall began. Even Hun Miesheng could only curse his bad luck and continue to hide in his shell.
The intense pursuit lasted for more than half a month until an extremely special pure energy swept across the entire Dou Qi Continent like a wave, finally bringing the pursuit to a halt.
Any living being that inhales this pure energy will have a vast image appear deep in its mind.
It was an ancient, towering tree that seemed to be as old as heaven and earth. Just by watching the video, one could feel a profound sense of enlightenment.
And this is the legendary Bodhi Ancient Tree!
This Bodhi Ancient Tree appeared in the Savage Ancient Region, located outside the northeast of the Central Continent. Few humans set foot there; it was inhabited only by ferocious magical Magical Beast with ancient bloodlines.
This is precisely why the Savage Ancient Region is so dangerous; even Dou Zun expert could perish there if they are not careful.
However, the allure of the Bodhi Heart, which disregards aptitude and allows one to break through to the Dou Sheng realm after refining, was too strong, so much so that a group of Dou Zong and Dou Emperor, who were unable to recognize reality, also came here to try their luck.
Xiao Yan had no time to worry about the fertilizer and feed. He took out the Bodhi Seed that had settled from the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, identified the general direction of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, and then traversed the void, rushing straight towards the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
There are three dangerous places on this trip. The first is the Beast Tide. The Fierce Beast living in the Savage Ancient Region are all muscle-bound and extremely hostile to humans. Once you encounter them, it will be a fight to the death.
However, precisely because these Fierce Beast lacked intelligence, Xiao Yan could easily traverse the void, avoid them, and head directly towards the location of the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
As for ordinary Dou Zun, they can only fight their way out, since being able to tear through space and being able to traverse the void are two different concepts.
Every now and then, he would jump out of the void to use the Bodhi Seed to confirm his direction, and then shake off the swarming Magical Beast and continue traveling. It took Xiao Yan more than an hour to see a giant tree that reached the sky.
This towering tree exuded a strong ancient aura, and in Xiao Yan's perception, it was not much older than the shattered Light Sphere.
The Bodhi Ancient Tree, also known as the Wisdom Samsara Tree, grows one ring every thousand years and only matures when it has a hundred rings.
In other words, it takes 100,000 years for Bodhi Ancient Tree to mature.
The Bodhi Ancient Tree had already matured when the Dou Emperor still existed, and the pure energy it contained was so vast that it was enough to rival the Dou Emperor!
Suppressing his excitement, Xiao Yan's figure flashed repeatedly as he quickly approached the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
A close-up view of the Bodhi Ancient Tree reveals another breathtaking sight, its massive trunk, thousands of feet long, resembling a pillar reaching to the heavens and the earth.
The vigorous life force contained within this massive trunk was so powerful that it defied description. Xiao Yan had no doubt that this Bodhi Ancient Tree was capable of nurturing a Life Spirit Flame.
However, perhaps because the massive trunk contained a cold, gloomy, and negative energy, the Bodhi Ancient Tree failed to produce any seeds. Otherwise, by refining the Bodhi Seed with the Life Spirit Flame, the Bodhi Ancient Tree would have healed itself long ago.
Xiao Yan composed himself and prepared to venture deeper into the dense branches of the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
However, before Xiao Yan could explore further, the Bodhi Ancient Tree's vast branches began to rustle, and the dense twigs intertwined and cascaded down from the shade.
As the branches touched the ground, they slowly split open, and five figures stepped out expressionlessly.
These five figures represent the second danger: five puppets at the Half-Saint level!
The five figures, devoid of any life force or soul aura, stood silently before Xiao Yan, making no move against Xiao Yan. It seemed that as long as Xiao Yan left now, they would not attack.
But, since we're already here...
Xiao Yan then took out the Creator Heavenly Saint from his Storage Ring, instructed it not to use the Great Heaven Creation Palm, and let it confront four of the puppets head-on.
As for Xiao Yan himself, he also chose a puppet, took a big step forward, and unleashed an Eight Extremes Collapse on the puppet.
