Zhang Chen looked at the wrinkled, shriveled branch of the Pan Peach Tree in his hand and could not help but sigh softly. "The heavens and earth have undergone great changes. Even Innate Spiritual Roots have withered away, severing the hope of all cultivators to advance. This truly is an unprecedented catastrophe."
Fortunately, Zhang Chen still had a choice. He could outlive this world.
Fortunately, he still possessed the Five Elements Authority, and he had obtained a branch of the Heaven Reaching Jianmu.
"By decree, take root, sprout, and come back to life!" Zhang Chen uttered Golden Mouth Jade Words toward the Pan Peach Tree branch in his hand. The next moment, new shoots actually emerged from the branch, a green leaf stretched forth, and tender roots sprouted out.
"How is that possible?! That is the authority of the Great Dao!" Having drawn close to Zhang Chen, Queen Mother of the West finally saw his method clearly. She cried out in shock, her eyes full of disbelief.
Zhang Chen ignored Queen Mother of the West. He sensed that the Pan Peach Tree branch had come back to life, but the instant it did, its world origin began pouring away. Startled, Zhang Chen hurriedly sent a strand of his Primordial Spirit into it, then stored it within the Ascension Pool beside the Heaven Reaching Jianmu.
The Heaven Reaching Jianmu sent down Innate Essence Qi for the Pan Peach Tree to absorb, stabilizing its condition. At the same time, Zhang Chen noticed that now that he had both the Longevity Tree and the Pan Peach Tree, the Innate Spiritual Qi produced daily by the Heaven Reaching Jianmu seemed somewhat insufficient.
Fortunately, as Zhang Chen continued to apply the Time Law to the Heaven Reaching Jianmu, this situation would gradually ease and reverse.
