Luan Mang Tree Mountain.

There was a very peculiar kind of tree in the Demon Realm. At first, it was merely thicker and taller than ordinary trees, but once it grew beyond a thousand zhang, one of its branches would droop and lengthen.

After a hundred years, the branch would touch the ground, absorbing the earth's power and steadily thickening until it became a second trunk. It would continue to grow taller and thicker, drawing ever closer to the main trunk.

Another hundred years later, the second trunk would join the main trunk and fuse with it. Each of the two crowns would send down a branch, and after a hundred years, two new trunks would form. Another hundred years later, all four trunks would merge into one, while sending out four more branches that could grow into trunks...

Luan Mang Tree Mountain stretched three hundred and twenty thousand li from north to south and a hundred and seventy thousand li from east to west, rising thirty-four thousand zhang high. It resembled a mountain range made of countless trees, its rolling heights stretching beyond sight. From afar, it looked no different from an ordinary mountain range in the Demon Realm.

Luan Mang Tree Mountain was a single tree that Ancestral God Luan Mang had planted with his own hands. This kind of tree was called a tree mountain.

Because Luan Mang Tree Mountain held the Divine Sense and aura left behind by the Ancestral God, the fierce creatures of the Demon Realm flocked to it like ducks to water. Long ago, it had become a gathering place for fierce creatures below Sainthood. Apart from its center, where a statue of Luan Mang kept them suppressed, the million li surrounding Tree Mountain were all lands of great peril.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
