Meng Qi looked into the distance. Where sea and sky met, a tree towered upward, its leaves shaped like mulberry leaves and red as fire, as though born from flames.
The entire giant tree felt scorching and blood-soaked, yet ancient and almost illusory.
It was the Fusang Ancient Tree.
At last, this day has come, Meng Chuan thought, excitement stirring within him, though his face showed nothing but worry and concern.
If he was going to act, he had to play the part to the end.
News of the Fusang Ancient Tree appearing in the Seven Seas also spread rapidly across the world through the Myriad Worlds Communication Talisman.
The Fusang Ancient Tree did not grow in reality. It stood within a realm of its own, cut off from the Real World.
Ordinarily, it was like a Mirage: visible but unreachable, impossible to touch.
Its appearance across such a vast area now was because two Divine Envoys of the Luo Sect had used a treasure with properties that countered its defenses to force open a breach.
Through the breach lay a boundless ocean, countless immortal islands and Divine Mountains, and more celestial birds and auspicious beasts than anyone could count.
This was one of the finest Grotto-Heaven Paradises in the world, a holy land for cultivation that held immense fortune and destiny.
The Fusang Ancient Tree Domain was connected to two Emperors of the Immemorial Era.
During the Primordial Era, Donghuang Taiyi had lost his struggle with Haotian for the Heavenly Emperor's Position. After slaying the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Haotian Shangdi had done something else.
He had mixed Donghuang Taiyi's blood with his own to nurture the Fusang Ancient Tree.
And the Fusang Ancient Tree still held many secrets. Even the Azure Emperor had been born from it.
