During its time with the other party, its divine sense gradually strengthened, and many things became clearer.
In the past, it needed to slumber for a period of time every ten thousand years to reduce the loss of its spiritual energy, and it would lose some of its memories and forget many things each time it awoke.
This time, while spending time with Su Yu, it could sense a change in its spirituality, a change that was moving in a positive direction.
This made the spirit of the Fusang Ancient Divine Tree very kind to Su Yu and willing to stay with him.
Su Yu descended from the clouds and landed beneath the Fusang Immortal Tree. He reached out and stroked the Ancient Taiyang Tree, a hint of reluctance in his eyes.
If he could bring this person into his inner world, his cultivation of the True Yang Path would definitely advance by leaps and bounds!
Unfortunately, the body of the Holy Emperor of the Sun and the Imperial Tower need to be nurtured, and the Ancient Emperor formation here also needs the blessing of the Taiyang Fire Essence to maintain its peak condition.
"I will take you away after the Dark Turmoil are over!"
Su Yu's expression softened as he made a promise, then turned and left.
His values are very simple: he will repay those who are good to him tenfold. These Immortal Tree love him, so he naturally won't ignore them!
"Rustling sound..."
At this moment, the Fusang Ancient Tree swayed, and a golden flower fell into Su Yu's hand, imprinted with innate Dao marks and exuding an ancient aura.
This is the Source God flower of the Fusang Immortal Tree, containing a massive amount of Taiyang fire essence, surging with Life energy. In terms of quantity, it is astonishing, comparable to half a fruit of the Immortal Medicine.
The Fusang Immortal Medicine usually does not flower or bear fruit, as doing so would damage its spirituality. Moreover, nurturing a flower requires a great deal of essence, which is a considerable burden for it. Yet, it has now gifted Su Yu a divine flower.
"You must come back. Next time, I'll save you a piece of fruit..."
A hazy divine thought emanated from the golden divine tree, its branches swaying and exuding an inexplicable sense of sorrow.
Su Yu turned around and saw a blurry figure amidst countless Golden Immortal Light. It was a little girl, about five or six years old.
She had golden wings on her back and gazed at Su Yu with great reluctance!
Yes!
Su Yu smiled brightly, his tone gentle, then waved his hand and flew away with the already "petrified" blue-haired female saint.
After a soft sound, this ancient, demonic land returned to silence once more; the black soil, the stone tablets, the gray mist—everything was filled with deathly stillness.
The Fusang Ancient Divine Tree stood alone, its countless golden leaves shimmering with celestial light, swirling with rosy hues, and exuding a rich, sweet fragrance. Especially at its very top, tender golden-green buds grew, crystal clear, radiating a strong aura of life, a glimmer of light in the darkness.
On the enormous branch, a dazzling golden flower bloomed, and a phantom figure emerged, silently gazing upon this world, which had remained unchanged for millions of years.
However, today, she felt a little uneasy. That person was gone, and this feeling was novel; it was the first time she had experienced it.
"What's wrong with me? Why am I having this feeling?"
The Fusang Tree Spirit murmured to herself, gazing at the world in bewilderment. She stretched out her hands, pointed a finger, and in an instant, golden leaves swirled and countless beams of celestial light descended, carving a section of the branch into a slender figure.
The golden-winged girl hugged the large figurine, silently waiting for time to pass, waiting for that person to return and take her away...
[1]: The previous text has been updated, and the setting of the Immortal-Slaying Gourd has been changed.
According to the original novel, Ye Fan, at the First Heaven of the Immortal Platform, used the Black Gourd to behead the Primordial Great Saint.
This Supreme Artifact is clearly no ordinary weapon. It is somewhat similar to the Primordial Gourd that Shi Hao forged in " Perfect World ". It can be used without activation and is extremely powerful.
Xiao Ye's initial concept also stemmed from this, but later he thought it was too overpowered, so he modified it. The Immortal-Slaying Light contains a wisp of the true meaning of the Imperial Dao, which can be activated even by weak cultivators and can severely injure all cultivators below the Quasi-Emperor.
The Quasi-Emperor Law can, to a certain extent, counteract the True Meaning of the Imperial Path. Therefore, to kill Quasi-Emperor, at least a Supreme Great Saint would need to activate the Black Gourd, and even then, success is not guaranteed.
[2]: The setting of the Fusang Ancient Tree has also been changed. It is no longer a being that can rival the Emperor's Way, but one that can threaten the Supreme.
This immortal tree is tentatively set as the transformed form of the golden-winged woman from " Perfect World," who is also a descendant of the Butcher and the master of the World Tree.

Chapter 464 What is Real, What is Illusion!
"Boom!"
The eye of the Northern Sea opened wide, and the ocean above seemed to be pouring down. A wisp of gray light tore through space and transformed into a man in silver robes.
"Your Highness Yu!"
The Longevity Saint stepped forward, followed by dozens of cultivators, including renowned figures from the Water Clan and elders from major sects in Luzhou.
Su Yu nodded in acknowledgment, his expression calm, and said warmly, "Thank you for your hard work!"
"It's my duty, so how can I talk about hardship!"
The gray-haired sage held a whisk, his white hair and youthful face giving him an air of otherworldly grace. As he spoke, lotus flowers fluttered and a clear light flowed, inspiring longing in the hearts of his entourage and making them marvel at the Saint's demeanor.
Su Yu smiled faintly, his eyes flashing with Daoist energy, and he understood the other party's meaning.
Among all the saints of Ziwei, the Longevity Saint was the most attentive to him, but he did not flatter him on the surface, appearing as a great cultivator.
Take this incident for example. He didn't have anyone waiting there, but the other party waited for months at the Northern Sea Branch Hall.
As a follower, he might not be quite qualified, but as the chief steward, he is absolutely capable...
"You'll come with me on this journey to Big Dipper!"
The black-haired youth spoke, then pointed a finger, and two pure white immortal Immortal Qi emerged, shaking the Nine Heavens and opening a tunnel in the space.
"The laws have transformed! Your Highness has become a saint!"
The Daoist Longevity's soul trembled as he looked at Su Yu's figure, as if he were facing a Primordial Desolation beast, utterly unable to fight against it.
The other weaker cultivators were even less able to withstand the pressure of the Ancient Saint, and they all bowed their heads, almost kneeling down, looking at the silver-robed man with utmost awe...
Su Yu paid no attention to these people. He took a step forward, and countless runes flowed around him. Strands of Void Dao patterns radiated Immortal of the Foreign Realm light, and he disappeared into the vast black sea.
The next moment, he emerged from the Dustless Sea.
In the span of a few dozen breaths, he crossed from the North Sea to the Southern Sea; this is the power of Saint.
Upon entering the Saint Realm, a cultivator's physical body, primordial spirit, and magical power will all undergo a transformation. It is a completely different world from the Third Heaven of the Immortal Platform. Saint are high above, able to look down upon the mortal world, and belong to the upper echelons of any great star.
"Your Highness Yu!"
On the blue crystal steps, two female officials on duty bowed, holding a silver filament lamp in their right hands and tucking their sleeves with their left hands in a respectful gesture.
The female official on the left wore a golden feather daytime dress, her black hair cascading down to her ankles. Her aura was upright and peaceful. She came from the Longevity Ancient Daoist Temple and was the current goddess of the Longevity Hall, Fairy Biyun, who ranked seventh on the Ziwei Star Domain's beauty list!
The maid on the right wore a blue silk dress adorned with stars, had red eyes and silver hair, and her eyes shimmered with a blood-red light like rubies, giving her an eerie appearance. She was Nangong Ya, the goddess of the Human King Hall, and ranked fourth on the Ziwei Beauty Ranking.
The reason these two came here was somewhat complicated. The Human King Hall and the Longevity Ancient Daoist Temple were the second batch of forces to surrender to Su Yu, the first batch being the Ziwei Ancient Kingdom.
Su Yu would naturally not act recklessly towards his own people. These two were obtained by his Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo clone at the cost of four Little Medicine King, which can be considered a huge expense.
Su Yu nodded and went inside.
With the improvement of his cultivation level, the ten beauties he had longed for before were now within his grasp.
Su Yu would covet the goddess he couldn't have and would try to get his hands on her.
However, when those beauties appeared before him, available for him to choose from, he found it somewhat boring.
"Too inexperienced; his talent is decent, but not exceptional. No wonder he didn't have a role in the original story!"
At a glance, Su Yu looked the two of them over inside and out, but he wasn't particularly impressed.
For cultivators, appearance is merely an empty shell; temperament is the key.
Once you step into the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, there are practically no ugly women. Immortal Platform cultivators can slightly adjust their bone structure to make themselves more Perfect World.
After cultivating with the four female Saint, seeing these beauties at the First Heaven of the Immortal Platform again inevitably evoked a sense of profound loss.
"I feel like I'm decaying; not only are my thoughts dark, but I'm also a bit pretentious!"
After entering the Spirit Palace, Su Yu muttered to himself, chuckled softly, and felt that he was sometimes inexplicably strange.
Even if these beauties have low cultivation levels, what he needs is not female cultivators with high cultivation levels.
Imagine being accompanied by ten beautiful women wherever you go; how could anyone not be addicted to such decadent pleasures...?
On the stone steps, sensing Su Yu's departure, Nangong Ya breathed a sigh of relief. Her red eyes closed slightly, revealing a languid charm that was breathtakingly beautiful.
She had heard of that prince; he had many concubines.
Upon entering the palace this time, she became a lady-in-waiting to Prince Shi Ming!
Compared to Prince Su Yu, Prince Shi Ming is much better. He is unmarried and is the dream lover of countless women in the Ziwei Star Domain.
Before she arrived, the elders of the sect had repeatedly instructed her, hoping that she could gain the favor of Shi Ming, so that the Human King Hall could gain a foothold in the imperial dynasty.
"When will His Highness Shi Ming emerge from seclusion...?"
Beside her, Fairy Biyun sighed softly, for she too carried some burdens.
However, unlike Nangong Ya, she had the right to choose. The higher-ups at the Longevity Ancient Daoist Temple did not force her but let her choose for herself.
She naturally chose Prince Shi Ming as well. Although Prince Yu was good, having taken the form of Immortal Medicine, he had too many concubines.
How many women in this world are willing to share their partners with others? At least, she isn't...
Inside the blue jade palace, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo was cultivating and comprehending the Time Great Dao.
Unlike the original Chaos, this avatar is well-versed in spacetime. Without the help of the World Tree, its cultivation speed is slightly slower, but with the help of the Holy Dao Primordial Spirit, it will soon be able to step into the Saint Realm.
Su Yu glanced at his time clone and just then overheard the inner thoughts of the two women outside the hall. Their muttered complaints made him chuckle, yet also leave him somewhat lost in thought.
In this respect, he truly failed Yan Ruyu, Zixia, and Yao Xi.
However, Su Yu did not regret it. If given another chance, he would repeat the operation!
He had also planned his future. Once everything was settled, he would make it up to them and spend the rest of his life with them...
Having extinguished the sorrow in his heart, Su Yu regained his composure. With a calm gaze, he walked out of the palace and arrived at the central Divine Court.
This place is vast and boundless, almost like a starry sky. A huge star map lies across the Void, with countless points of light and ancient star fields stretching out like pearls embedded in the darkness.
In the center of the starry sky, Tuoyu Yuansheng, Star Lord Lucun, Island Master Cangyue, and others were refining the Five Elements Source Stone to construct Five-Colored Altar.
This altar is located on one of the Five Elements planets. The construction of the Domain Gate utilizes that small altar, along with Five-Colored Stone, to create a passage between the Ziwei Star Domain and Earth.
"Your Highness has entered the Saint Realm! This is a great fortune for the Imperial Dynasty!" Upon seeing Su Yu arrive, Tuoyu Yuansheng spoke, recognizing the other's realm, and offered his congratulations.
As he spoke, golden flames surged in Tuoyu's hands, condensing five sparkling and dazzling Five Elements essences into Five-Colored Stone at a rapid pace. The altar, which was originally only three meters wide, had now been transformed and appeared much larger.
The other Saint also offered their congratulations, their attitudes very gentle...
