A surge of boundless vitality erupted from Hua Youyue, vanishing in an instant, leaving her radiant with a unique charm. Her bright, lively eyes shone as she looked anxiously at Yang Zhen: "You gave me the Ageless Tree, what are you going to do now?"
No one expected this to happen; even the Saint-level Divine Soul was taken aback.
On the one hand, no one expected that Yang Zhen would actually possess Ageless Tree. This kind of treasure of heaven and earth is the rarest of all living beings, with only one tree growing in a lifetime.
In other words, if this immortal tree does Ageless Tree perish, then there will never be another one like it in the world.
Such a precious and unique treasure of heaven and earth was given to Hua Youyue without the slightest hesitation by Yang Zhen, which could not help but shock everyone.
In the Cultivation World, deceit and treachery prevail, and only the fittest survive. Under certain circumstances, everyone is selfish, even among dao companion; those who can share life and death are few and far between.
Now, as everyone watched helplessly as Yang Zhen actually gave the Ageless Tree to Hua Youyue, their hearts were filled with shock and disbelief.
The Ageless Tree cannot withstand too much turmoil. Now that Yang Zhen has forcibly separated it, it can never be taken back.
Once the Ageless Tree leaves Hua Youyue's body again, it will surely die!
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen with suspicion, but Yang Zhen seemed unconcerned, as if he had thrown away a piece of trash. He waved his hand dismissively and said, "This piece of junk is of little use to me. It can't even repair my soul. What's the point of having it? You might as well give it to me!"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt an urge to curse.
Ageless Tree replenish the divine soul?
Damn it, how could Yang Zhen, that bastard, come up with such a thing? All things in nature have their own nature, and the effects of the Ageless Tree make almost every cultivator covet it. It is something that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be obtained by chance, yet Yang Zhen actually despises it as trash.
The Ageless Tree certainly cannot replenish the soul, just as even a grandmaster of weapon crafting cannot refine the most basic elixir.
Yang Zhen didn't want to waste time on the Ageless Tree, so he turned to the Shameless Cat and said, "That woman said the soul is extremely difficult to repair, but she didn't say it's impossible. There must be a way, right?"
This is also why Yang Zhen wasn't too worried.
Every chance is a chance, even if it's only one in ten thousand. As long as it's not certain death, that's good enough.
Besides, no one throughout history has been able to cultivate from the Spirit Wandering Realm to the Great Saint Realm in three years, and that doesn't mean Yang Zhen can't do it.
Upon hearing Yang Zhen's words, a strange look flashed across the Shameless Cat's face. He nodded and said, "Yin and Yang are interdependent, and one can heal the other. There are naturally ways to repair damage to the soul, but for you at your current state, this method is no different from having no way at all."
Yang Zhen grinned!
There really is a way!
"This Sage of Saunter was born to break these so-called rules; as long as there's a way, that's all that matters!"
As he spoke, Yang Zhen walked towards the Shameless Cat, asking as he went, "Come here, tell this Sage of Saunter how to complete it. Damn, thinking about how many more years I have to live, I'm starting to feel a little apprehensive."
Yang Zhen's words left everyone speechless.
If others knew they only had three years to live, they would probably be too scared to eat, but Yang Zhen, that bastard, acted as if he were discussing someone else's business.
The Shameless Cat stared speechlessly at Yang Zhen, about to speak, when the Saint-level Divine Soul suddenly exclaimed, startling everyone.
Yang Zhen turned around and looked at the rambling woman with a strange expression, then his expression suddenly changed.
Rumble--!
Without warning, the entire earth seemed to tremble violently, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and thunder roared, causing a cataclysmic upheaval.
Countless cracks appeared on the earth, like a spider web, sweeping across the entire Forbidden Zone of Life.
Those enormous cracks were bottomless, and a terrifying, world-destroying shockwave shot into the sky, blasting everyone into the air. Some unlucky cultivators were even turned to ashes by this violent force.
Yang Zhen's expression changed, and before he could react, he was sent flying into the sky. He watched as the Shameless Cat floated past him, whimpering. He grabbed it and pulled it back, then hurriedly looked around for Hua Youyue.
A terrifying shockwave shot into the sky, and a series of sounds, like the roar of heaven and earth, echoed through the air, deafening Yang Zhen. He could hear nothing but piercing, sharp noises.
The surroundings were chaotic, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face. Under the violent shockwave, the sky darkened, the air was turbulent, and from the cracked earth, towering waves of earth rose into the sky and flew everywhere.
After an unknown amount of time, Yang Zhen's ears could barely hear any sounds. He rushed towards the direction where Hua Youyue was, his Great Deficiency Sword flying horizontally, shattering huge rocks one after another.
Buzz--!
The atmosphere was chilling and oppressive; everyone trembled with fear, as if facing the might of the heavens.
Faced with the power of heaven and earth, humans were so weak that they could barely utter a cry. The terrifying shockwave sent thousands of people flying into the air, scattering them in all directions.
Yang Zhen finally spotted Hua Youyue and Mo Xueling, but as he leaped forward, a terrifying energy surged into the sky and struck him directly in the chest, sending him flying.
" Ink Pool Peak..."
Mo Xueling, holding Hua Youyue's hand, was thrown in opposite directions by a gust of air.
Upon hearing the name Ink Pool Peak, Yang Zhen immediately understood that Mo Xueling wanted him to meet at Ink Pool Peak.
Thousands of people gasped in surprise, tumbling and flying everywhere like flies blown away by a strong wind.
Among the crowd, the only Dao Fanatic who hadn't uttered a sound had eyes filled with starlight, and mysterious and complex patterns shone brightly around her. She was blown away, her whereabouts unknown.
Outside the Forbidden Zone of Life, all the experts at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm changed their expressions in unison, staring in horror at the destructive power erupting from within the Forbidden Zone of Life.
"What... what exactly happened?" a Tribulation Transcendence Realm expert exclaimed, looking around in bewilderment.
" The Forbidden Zone of Life seems to be destroyed. How is this possible? We've only just opened Forbidden Zone of Life for the first time, and it's already going to disappear?"
"Oh no, the Forbidden Zone of Life is truly about to be destroyed! What is that aura?"
Everyone stared in horror at the terrifying shockwave that shot into the sky, gasping in surprise. No one knew what had happened.
The endless waves of True Essence surged out in all directions, instantly becoming sky-covering and even showing signs of spreading beyond the Forbidden Zone of Life.
" The True Essence of heaven and earth, such a rich and abundant True Essence of heaven and earth!"
"Could it be that there are actually primordial veins within the Forbidden Zone of Life?"
"How large a primordial energy would it take to create something of this scale?"
True Essence surged like a tide, and heaven and earth roared. No one, including the cultivators in the Spirit Wandering Realm within the Forbidden Zone of Life, as well as those outside the Forbidden Zone of Life, knew what had happened.
Only a very few astute individuals could vaguely guess that this change in the Forbidden Zone of Life seemed to be related to the Heaven and Earth Shackles that Yang Zhen had destroyed.
Then, suddenly, a "rain of people" began to fall from mid-air, and the expressions of all the Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts turned strange.
" Yang Zhen, it was Yang Zhen who destroyed the Heaven and Earth Shackles in the Forbidden Zone of Life; he is a sinner for all time!"
"Seniors, run! The heavens and earth here are about to collapse!"
"What?" A Tribulation Transcendence Realm expert asked in a deep voice, his face grim. "What exactly happened?"
" Yang Zhen shattered the Heaven and Earth Shackles, causing a region to collapse. If we don't leave now, it will be too late. Many... many people have been sucked into the spatial turbulence."
Where is Yang Zhen?
"I... I don't know, everyone was scattered!"
Amidst the chaotic crowd, a boy with a cat and a chicken slung over his shoulder ran incredibly fast, shouting as he went, "Run! Yang Zhen has done something monstrous, he's stirred up a hornet's nest! If you don't run now, it'll be too late!"
