The Seed of Life, the Golden Ancient Tree!

"Gulp." The Six-Claw Demon Emperor swallowed hard, asking nervously, "My the Master, what should we do?"

"Stupid!" The Ant Emperor slapped the Six-Claw Demon Emperor, saying with exasperation, "Didn't our the Master say that we just need to put on a show and protect the Abyss Crystal inside our bodies?"

Why would they risk their lives for that little bit of survival?

"Yes and no." Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly. "My strategy is to extract as much of the abyssal essence as possible from each layer of the Abyss Plane before the Abyssal Sage King does."

After they finished speaking, the Ant Emperor and the Six-Claw Demon Emperor fell silent instantly. A thin mist drifted around them, with only some Abyssal Creatures chirping softly.

It took the two of them quite a while to truly digest the audacious plan of "drawing the firewood from under the cauldron".

"My the Master, perhaps I was mistaken. You can Extraction and refine the energy within the Abyss Crystal, but if you destroy the Abyss Crystal directly, causing the Abyss Plane plane to collapse, you might not have enough time to absorb the plane's primordial power. This would awaken the Abyssal Sage King and could even expose us."

After much hesitation, the Six-Claw Demon Emperor finally spoke. After all, Jiang Xiu's plan was too insane, and this was the Abyss Plane, where the Abyssal Sage King could unleash the full power of a god.

If they are discovered, they can simply be sent to heaven on the spot.

"Of course it's not that simple, because there's something that can do all this silently." Jiang Xiu chuckled. He hadn't expected that the seemingly simple-minded Six-Claws could think of this.

"What is that?" the two exclaimed in surprise.

"The Seed of Life, the Seed of Life of the Douluo Continent." Jiang Xiu said succinctly.

"Ah! My the Master, you are the Child of Nature from the Douluo Plane?" the Ant Emperor exclaimed in shock upon hearing this.

The Seed of Life is the Life Origin in a plane, and can represent the rise and fall of a plane to a certain extent. The main function of the Plane Seed is to absorb external life force to strengthen the plane itself.

Besides this, the Seed of Life has another function: it allows one to directly penetrate the origin of a plane. Those who possess the Plane Seed are usually called the Child of Nature, and they represent the hope of a plane.

Having devoured several planes of existence before, they naturally had some understanding of this thing.

If their the Master is truly the Child of Nature of the Douluo Plane, with the help of the Seed of Life and the consent of their own Abyss King, they could indeed secretly absorb the Abyss Plane of the Abyss Plane without causing its collapse.

This truly dealt a fatal blow to the Abyssal Sage King.

"The Seed of Life is not in my hands for the time being, but it will be in the future," Jiang Xiu said with a distant gaze.

The Seed of Life is still inside the Golden Ancient Tree within the Shrek Academy, but it bears the mark of the Old Plane Spirit. He only needs to touch the Golden Ancient Tree.

He already had a plan in mind regarding how to approach the Golden Ancient Tree.

Suddenly, Jiang Xiu realized that the Old Plane Spirit had considered everything very thoroughly, and it was highly likely that it had even foreseen this step for him.

However, he didn't quite understand Old Plane Spirit meant when it said that the opportunity for the Underworld Emperor to become a god lay in the Demon Plane.

"Yes, it will happen, it will all happen!" The Ant Emperor and the Six-Claw Demon Emperor were also quite excited. They realized they had truly followed the right person. "Becoming an 'Emperor' will happen, and perhaps even becoming a god..."

Seeing the two of them like this, Jiang Xiu smiled knowingly. The legion commander was completely obedient to him, loyal to him, and would never betray him, but he was also not a puppet. He needed to give him hope so that he could give full play to his initiative and make more contributions to the Abyss Legion.

After all, the future is bright, but the road is tortuous. However, it is precisely this tortuous road that is enough to destroy countless people.

"Besides acquiring the Blood River God-Slaying Array, the next step is to implement the Seed of Life acquisition plan as soon as possible..."

Jiang Xiu gazed intently into the distance, and at the end of his vision lay the magnificent Ba Emperor Palace.

Shrek Academy.

Sea God Island.

A towering ancient tree stands on the island, its trunk strong and thick, with dark gold lines that seem to tell the story of time's vicissitudes. Its dense canopy blocks out the sun, and its golden leaves radiate a rich light, rustling Qingfeng in the breeze.

From a distance, the area around the ancient tree looks like a golden ocean.

And leaning against the tree trunk, there is a huge house, which was built against this ancient tree.

This wooden house is the core of Sea God Island, the core of the Shrek Academy, and even the core of the entire Shrek City. The plaque on the wooden house is clearly engraved with three large characters: Sea God Pavilion!

"How could this be? This Vast Sea Universe Crystal was clearly moved three days ago."

Sea God Pavilion, Yun Ming's deep voice, filled with confusion, rang out, his eyes fixed on a crystal on the table.

It was a completely transparent rhomboid crystal, blue in color, crystal clear, with what appeared to be rippling water inside, and faintly emitting a golden light, incredibly mystical.

This is a treasure in the Shrek Academy's treasury called the Vast Universe Crystal. Although it is unknown who brought it or how it appeared, it has been kept in the Sea God Pavilion Treasury, and it is rumored that it is related to the Sea God Lord of yesteryear.

Just three days ago, this Vast Sea Universe Crystal suddenly emitted a dazzling light, which quickly disappeared but still caught Yun Ming's attention.

"Brother Ming, could something have triggered it? Maybe we should wait and see?" Ya Li gently said, sitting beside Yun Ming.

She knew exactly what her husband was thinking; he was simply looking for the opportunity to take that final step.

This Vast Sea Universe Crystal is rumored to be related to the Sea God, which is why Yun Ming cares so much about it. After all, in this era where the Divine Realm has disappeared, no opportunity to become a god should be missed.

"Sigh, let's see," Yun Ming sighed, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Only after he truly stepped into the Quasi-God did he realize how difficult it was to take that step.

While the two were observing the Vast Sea Universe Crystal, in another space within the Golden Ancient Tree, countless points of light converged and transformed into an old man.

The old man had a youthful face and white hair, a kind expression, and a pair of strange golden eyes. He radiated a rich power of light and vitality.

If Yun Ming were here, he would definitely recognize him, because he is none other than the Elder Jin, transformed from the Golden Ancient Tree.

"Sigh, have you really disappeared completely?" Elder Jin's gaze seemed to pierce through layers of space, looking into the distant horizon, his eyes filled with a hint of melancholy.

"But what will I do now that you're gone?"

Elder Jin sighed, his tone tinged with sorrow and despair, as if he could see his own future.

Will he still be the Golden Ancient Tree in the future...?
