The Enlightenment Sacred Tree had powerful innate abilities and could sense danger, so it was very difficult for cultivators to obtain it. Even experts who had one foot over the final threshold couldn't keep it by their side unless it was willing. That was what Po Qiong had said.
After learning this, Ling Tian figured that the master of the You Hun Realm probably hadn't obtained the Enlightenment Sacred Tree, but had simply been lucky enough to get a few leaves. Still, when he heard Tang Qi and the others say that people had seen the tree—not just one person—he was pleasantly surprised. As long as the Enlightenment Sacred Tree was in the You Hun Realm, he had a chance to obtain it.
"Heh, so the Enlightenment Sacred Tree really exists, and no one's obtained it yet. That's good news for us." Little Devour let out a strange laugh and looked at Ling Tian. "Maybe we really can snatch it."
Tang Qi and the others were dumbfounded to hear that cultivators like Ling Tian and his companions, who were at the middle-to-late Orthodox God stage, also wanted to obtain a Saint-grade Heavenly Treasure. They thought that cultivators these days were absurdly arrogant. But then they remembered how unusual Ling Tian was, and another thought stirred in their hearts: perhaps they really did have a chance.
It made sense. A young cultivator at the early Orthodox God stage had been able to defeat him, and he had an even more powerful Heaven-Devouring Wolf by his side. Someone like that was no ordinary person. Maybe he was a core disciple of some medium-sized or major power, or a prominent figure's personal disciple, sent into the You Hun Realm specifically for the Enlightenment Sacred Tree.
