The Demon Tree's Wisdom: It Chose to Surrender!
At this moment, the demonic tree clearly also felt the suffocating pressure emanating from Su Zhan.
All its branches were taut, and countless human faces on the trunk opened their eyes at the same time, emitting a shrill scream.
"Roar--!"
That was the roar of countless wronged souls, converging into tangible sound waves, trying to shatter the intruder.
The Yuan Household family members turned pale; under the oppressive aura of Martial King Rank, they even found it difficult to stand.
Su Zhan simply picked at his ear, his brow furrowing slightly. "Too noisy."
He raised his hand and pressed it into the air towards the arrogant demonic tree.
"Divine Farmer's Miasma, town."
The [Myriad Poisons Divine Farmer's Canon] shone brightly in my Sea of Consciousness, and an unparalleled pressure originating from the primordial era and belonging to the "Ancestor of Poisons" descended instantly!
It was an absolute suppression that originated from the depths of one's bloodline.
It was like a subject meeting an emperor, or a stream encountering the ocean.
The Bloodheart Demon Tree, towering over a hundred feet tall, trembled violently under Su Zhan's pressure. The countless ferocious, roaring faces on the trunk now displayed expressions of utter terror, and the shrieks abruptly ceased, turning into low whimpers.
It was afraid.
As a Demon Plant has lived for a thousand years, it understands better than any human how to seek advantage and avoid harm. It can clearly sense that within this tiny human in front of it lies a terrifying Principle that can instantly strip it of all its vitality and completely refine it into a pile of withered wood.
That was its natural enemy, its nemesis, and its ancestor whom it had to worship!
"Should we continue?"
Su Zhan looked at the still hesitant demon tree, the purple qi in his palm growing increasingly intense, even faintly transforming into a purple dragon that swirled between his fingers, exhaling a chilling aura.
"I'm not a very patient person. If you don't want to move, I'll do it for you."
Before he could finish speaking...
The Bloodheart Demon Tree suddenly made a move that shocked everyone.
"Crack--Boom!"
Its massive root system, buried deep underground, miraculously emerged from the soil. Then, its mountain-like trunk bent down with great difficulty, crashing heavily towards the direction where Su Zhan was!
The sight of a hundred-foot-tall tree kneeling before it was truly magnificent.
The earth roared, and dust flew everywhere.
Its countless branches, which were originally like steel whips, now lay obediently on the ground, like tails waiting to be stroked by their owner.
At the top of the tree canopy, the enormous, blood-red heart stopped beating wildly and became calm and rhythmic.
Immediately afterwards, a crack appeared in the heart.
A fist-sized, crystal-clear, blood-red fruit, exuding an alluring fragrance, was carefully presented to Su Zhan, supported by the most delicate branch.
The moment this fruit appeared, the pungent smell of blood instantly vanished, replaced by a refreshing fragrance that was intoxicating. Just one whiff of it made one's Qi and Blood surge, as if one had become ten years younger.
"Blood... Blood Bodhi?!"
Elder Yuan Ji stared wide-eyed in disbelief and exclaimed in shock.
This is a legendary treasure of heaven and earth! It is said that it can only be formed in the most yin and evil places, drawing upon the Essence Blood of all living beings, and taking a thousand years to form. Consuming it can not only heal flesh and bone and revive the dead, but also greatly purify one's bloodline and increase lifespan!
This is a priceless treasure for any Cultivator, enough to ignite a bloody battle for it.
But now, this demonic tree, possessing the strength of Martial King, has actually offered up its most precious companion spirit fruit in order to survive?
Is this the plant-based version of "a wise person submits to circumstances"?
Su Zhan looked at the Blood Bodhi in front of him, which was as dazzling as a ruby, without showing much surprise. He reached out and took the fruit, feeling the immense Life Element contained within it, and nodded in satisfaction.
"You're quite sensible."
He patted the branch supporting the fruit, which trembled twice in surprise before quickly retracting.
Su Zhan withdrew his purple qi, and the Shennong Domain dissipated.
The Bloodheart Demon Tree felt as if it had been granted a pardon, but it still dared not straighten up and remained kneeling until Su Zhan waved his hand, signaling it to get lost.
"Rumble..."
Without any hesitation, the demon tree immediately waved its roots, as if it had grown legs, and scrambled to bury itself back into the soil. It even moved several hundred meters to the side to make Great Dao for Su Zhan.
