Arriving at the root continent with Yuanbao in his arms, Xu Kun did not pause. He intended to press onward in one go and challenge the true Nine Heavens Phoenix Tree above.
Crossing the Thousand Nest Cloud Sea only meant enduring the crosswinds escaping from the spatial turbulence around the canopy. Climbing from the root continent toward the canopy, however, was a challenge like ascending the Eternal Divine Tree before—enduring the impact crashing down from above.
