Treasurer Jin wore a look of surprise, took out a Purple-Gold Abacus, and his hands moved like spasms, conjuring a series of afterimages. The clicking sounds blended together, and in a short while, Treasurer Jin's face turned a little pale...

"This is going to be a major event. The mausoleum is deeply hidden, and this place is both embracing yin and bearing yang, with you in me and me in you. It has long had the potential to evolve into Wuji. Now that the balance is broken, it will immediately transform into a surge of the Yellow Springs and a reversal of Qiankun. There must be great danger hidden within. I'm afraid we are not up to the task..."

As soon as these words came out, the Great Elder shone his lamp-like eyes downwards, his expression becoming increasingly unsightly. The Seven Fragrance Carriage door opened, and a woman flew out. This woman was dressed in feather garments, wore a luan and phoenix hairpin, and had a silver veil covering her face. Her figure was graceful and enchanting, yet filled with a cold and holy aura.

Although her appearance could not be seen, one could see her eyes moving gently. Her pair of brown pupils were lively and cold, with shimmering water-like ripples. With each blink, the surrounding spiritual light and spiritual energy danced along.

By now, the Spirit Platform Saintess could no longer sit still. Stepping out of the Seven Fragrance Carriage signified that she was going to give her all.

The illusory image of a Secret Realm that had appeared in mid-air had more and more cracks, and the speed was getting faster and faster. The more cracks there were in the boundary between the Secret Realm and the world, the faster the collapse process would be.

At this rate, it would completely collapse in at most the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Inside the Secret Realm, Qin Yang looked up at the sky, and cracks constantly appeared, extending rapidly from the sky towards the ground. Looking up, he saw a giant tree, tens of feet tall, on the mountain ahead, instantly cut off by a crack that opened out of nowhere. The severed upper half also fell into the crack and disappeared.

In a short while, more and more cracks appeared closer to the ground. When they reached the Banyan Forest, there were also many cracks in the Banyan Forest, some four or five zhang long, others only a zhang or so. Looking through the cracks, one could see that what was displayed inside the cracks was actually the scenery outside...

Not understanding what this was, he vaguely guessed that this was probably not a good thing...

"Senior, Senior, are you ready? Something's wrong!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a tree root drilled out of the ground in the Banyan Forest, wrapped around Qin Yang's waist, and pulled Qin Yang towards the inside.

Before his eyes, Qin Yang only saw the scenery on both sides receding rapidly. Even with his eyesight, it was difficult to see clearly, and he could only see blurry shadows. All the blood in his body seemed to be surging madly towards his back with the pull...

In a short while, the pulling force loosened, and Qin Yang fell to the ground, dizzy. It took him a long time to regain consciousness.

Opening his eyes, he saw a giant tree with a diameter of more than a li, but only a hundred zhang tall...

The exuberant vitality emanating from the giant tree was almost suffocating. The blue aura permeating the air, with each breath, actually caused a noticeable improvement in his own cultivation, as if he had swallowed a great tonic spiritual medicine.

As the True Essence circulated, it was somewhat difficult to refine. However, after a few breaths, more and more of the blue aura was inhaled, and Qin Yang's expression changed. The surface of his hands actually began to lignify...

Startled, Qin Yang quickly held his breath and closed all the pores on his body.

"Yi Wood Essence!" Qin Yang's expression flickered, and he suddenly remembered what this was. Extremely precious Yi Wood Essence, only found within those special ten-thousand-year-old giant trees, was the most natural healing holy medicine, capable of reviving the dead and regenerating flesh, containing extremely terrifying vitality.

Looking at the dense, almost undiluted Yi Wood Essence here, Qin Yang's liver trembled...

It was too dense. He had only taken two breaths along with his breathing, and his body was finding it difficult to digest, almost turning into wood...

How many years had this Banyan Tree Demon accumulated? "This world is about to collapse, and there is not much time left. This Yi Wood Essence is difficult to digest. If you want it, take some." An old, wooden voice sounded in Qin Yang's mind.

In the next moment, the Yi Wood Essence in the Banyan Forest swarmed and converged. The banyan trees on the edge of the Banyan Forest withered in an instant, turning into Yi Wood Essence and gathering.

Here, one tree forms a forest. All the banyan trees are all clones of the Banyan Tree Demon. Now that this place is about to collapse, even if they remain, they will not be able to survive. It is better to refine them all into Yi Wood Essence and recover them.

In just a dozen breaths, a trace of woody characteristics appeared on the surface of Qin Yang's skin, and his whole body was about to be lignified.

Qin Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned around and ran, far away from the Banyan Tree Demon's main body.

"I almost drowned in Yi Wood Essence, who would believe it if I said it..."

The massive Yi Wood Essence gathered, and the Banyan Tree Demon could not contain it at all. After those dense, undiluted Yi Wood Essence were gathered to a certain extent, they immediately began to condense. Before long, emerald green crystals condensed in mid-air, falling like rain...

As the emerald green crystals condensed, the undiluted Yi Wood Essence rapidly decreased. When the Yi Wood Essence dissipated completely, the Banyan Forest also completely disappeared, leaving only the Banyan Tree Demon's main body constantly shrinking.

"I can no longer contain it within my body. If you need these, take them. Leaving here is a great opportunity, consider it a reward."

"Senior, you're too kind..." Qin Yang grinned from ear to ear. The Banyan Tree Demon hadn't even bothered to talk to him before, but now it was forced to, with no other choice but to leave. These Yi Wood Essence crystals were fine for others, but if the Banyan Tree Demon absorbed them, they would immediately integrate. When it said it couldn't contain them, it naturally meant it couldn't contain them...

With time so pressing, he'd save on the pleasantries. Anyway, if he didn't take them, they'd all be destroyed here.

What a waste...

"Preparing so many Storage Bags, they've finally come in handy!" He lifted his clothes, revealing a dense array of Storage Bags, then rushed over, transforming into a diligent little squirrel, constantly collecting all the Yi Wood Essence crystals that covered the ground.

It was said that opportunity favors the prepared. Storage Bag space was too small, so he had always prepared more, just in case they might be useful someday.

He finished collecting the Yi Wood Essence crystals, unable to calculate how much he'd gathered...

"There's also some bark shed over the years, do you want it?"

With a rustling sound, a pile of bark formed a small mountain.

"Yes!" Qin Yang's breathing became heavy, his eyes turned green, and he pounced on it, collecting all the bark.

Even if much of this bark couldn't be used directly, it would be excellent as material for making talisman paper...

By the time Qin Yang finished packing, the Banyan Tree Demon's main body had shrunk to about four or five zhang in height, and its roots had been pulled from the ground.

"My main body will fall into slumber during the transfer. Everything depends on you."

"Senior, rest assured, I may not have other advantages, but I definitely keep my word."

As the Banyan Tree Demon fell into slumber, Qin Yang muttered an apology and placed the seemingly lifeless Banyan Tree into a Storage Bag.

By now, the earth had begun to tremble, and the cataclysmic trend of heaven collapsing and earth splitting had finally fully unfolded.

Qin Yang took out the Shape-Shifting Ink Talismans. The scroll unfurled, and a noble purple crane flew out, carrying Qin Yang into the sky, heading towards one of the thick cracks...
