Chapter 1344: Chapter 1343: Ten Thousand Demon Tree of the Mythical Era

[Requesting monthly votes!!!]

A magic tree has come to life. The deeper they venture into the ”Original Restricted Zone,” the more unknown dangers arise. If this magic tree weren’t still in a semi-dormant state, Ye Tianchen and Little Zhu Yan would probably have died here already!

Ye Tianchen tossed Little Zhu Yan onto his shoulder and continuously used the Divine Movement Skill, swiftly heading toward the deepest part of the ”Original Restricted Zone.” He had already found the old fisherman and Xiao Ling, and knew that the Divine Monkey, Vermilion Bird, and Old Xuan Turtle were battling with Qin Kongdao. Time was tight, and it wouldn’t be long before the monkey, Vermilion Bird, and Old Xuan Turtle would return, and if they ran into Ye Tianchen and Little Zhu Yan, finding them in their lair, they would surely go berserk, possibly chasing Ye Tianchen and Little Zhu Yan for millions of miles!

Finding the Divine Spring Pit was Little Zhu Yan’s ultimate goal, especially after the appearance of Old Xuan Turtle, who confirmed that the Divine Spring Pit truly existed in the deepest part of this ”Original Restricted Zone.” This excited Little Zhu Yan even more. He had to find the Divine Spring Pit because his father, the once supremely powerful Ancient War Emperor revered by all races, left him this clue after sealing him, directing him to find the Divine Spring Pit. There, Little Zhu Yan would find something left by the Ancient War Emperor. Although he didn’t know what it was, Little Zhu Yan had to find it. He had wandered the ”Original Restricted Zone” for nearly a hundred years, hoping to seize the chance to find the ”Divine Spring Pit.” Unfortunately, his cultivation had encountered problems, preventing him from growing strong over the years. Therefore, he desperately needed Ye Tianchen’s help to find the Divine Spring Pit!

According to this rascal, the Divine Spring Pit itself is a supreme treasure. The Divine Spring Water within it can not only wash the marrow, extend one’s lifespan, but also has many magical effects. The Ancient War Emperor, Little Zhu Yan’s father, was the first owner of the Divine Spring Pit. This pit accompanied the invincible War Emperor of the mythical era through many long years, leaving too many stories and secrets worth exploring and discovering. Ye Tianchen also wanted to know what the Ancient War Emperor, such a supreme being, left for his offspring after breaking the seal. Surely, a being with a cultivation realm and vision that reached the highest level would not just allow Little Zhu Yan to simply find the Divine Spring Pit, right? Clearly, no one would believe that.

With Little Zhu Yan, Ye Tianchen quickly headed toward the deepest part of the ”Original Restricted Zone.” Now, he was not too worried. After all, with the old fisherman and Xiao Ling found, and under the protection of the ”Holy Heaven Prison,” if problems arose, Ye Tianchen would truly be at a loss. He just needed to help Little Zhu Yan find the Divine Spring Pit, see what the Ancient War Emperor left for his offspring, and leave quickly. As long as no significant danger emerged, Ye Tianchen would not be overly tense!

”By the way, what kind of tree is it exactly, that it became so extraordinary? If your father were alive, would he even need to take it seriously? Is it really that formidable?” Ye Tianchen kept thinking about what kind of tree it was, that even in a semi-dormant state, its branches could penetrate the void and shake the heavenly vault. If it were fully awake, what would happen then?

Little Zhu Yan furrowed his brows and did not directly answer Ye Tianchen’s question. After thinking for a moment, he said, ”That was an extremely long time ago, during the early years of the Martial Arts World, called the Mythical Era by our ancient alien race. In that era, transcending ancient times, many secrets remain unknown, perhaps forever. After becoming the Ancient War Emperor, my father found a painting left in a battlefield of the mythical era. It was so ancient, but one could see a vague silhouette—a tree rooted between heaven and earth, so powerful that its every move could shake the heavenly vault. Its branches extended for an unknown distance, piercing through multiple galaxies, as if the whole world was its domain...”

”What happened next?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask with a frown.

”Later, my father realized how terrifying such a tree could be. Even on his level, he couldn’t underestimate it. Then my father searched this mythical era’s ancient battlefield and eventually found a painting depicting a world-shattering battle. The entire Martial Arts World seemed destroyed. In that painting, many divine beasts and demons fought, the tree among them, involved in an epic battle that devastated the world...” Little Zhu Yan recalled the story the Ancient War Emperor had once told him.

”Did the tree eventually disappear, or did it achieve nirvana rebirth?” Ye Tianchen pondered and asked.

”Unknown, but my father speculated that the tree was destroyed in that mythical era’s great battle. However, at the moment of its destruction, it left a seed, regarded as a continuation of life and nirvana rebirth!” Little Zhu Yan nodded and said.

”So powerful? Truly nirvana rebirth!” Ye Tianchen exclaimed in surprise.

”I didn’t expect its seed to end up here. After so many years, the tree has gradually grown again. Although not yet fully mature, it is already formidable. Who knows how many years later, it might become a magical tree again from the mythical era, sweeping across the entire Martial Arts World?” Little Zhu Yan frowned and said.

”The Martial Arts World really seems to be heading towards chaos!” Ye Tianchen said, frowning deeply.

”This tree is called the Ten Thousand Demon Tree by later generations, incredibly powerful. It only appeared once during the Mythical Era, participating in the battle to open up the world. If you say it’s not strong enough, are there any stronger beings in this world?” Little Zhu Yan said with a chuckle.

”This tree is so spiritual and is called the Ten Thousand Demon Tree. You didn’t just stand on top of it and poop, angering it, did you? You’re definitely in for it!” Ye Tianchen purposely threatened the mischievous Little Zhu Yan.

Little Zhu Yan was taken aback, his face instantly turning pale. Just thinking about the power and terror of the Ten Thousand Demon Tree made him shiver involuntarily. He then quickly retorted, ”Damn it, do you think I’ll be afraid of this Ten Thousand Demon Tree? Us Zhu Yan clan members aren’t pushovers. I will definitely become as formidable as my father and uncle. By then, I’ll chop down this tree and use it for firewood...”

”Wow, since when did you become so brave? I have to inform that Ten Thousand Demon Tree about what you said so it remembers your words forever...” Ye Tianchen laughed mischievously.

”You go ahead and tell it, what do I care? Besides, didn’t you also hit it? It’s a Demon Tree, very vengeful, and I’m not letting it chase only me!” Little Zhu Yan snickered wickedly.

Ye Tianchen glanced disdainfully at the mischievous Little Zhu Yan. This mischievous little creature really was infuriating, lacking the powerful courage and boldness of his father, the Ancient War Emperor. Famous for his battles, he defeated all opponents, becoming renowned as the War Emperor. Throughout history in the Martial Arts World, among those who became Emperors, only this mischievous creature’s father had been called the War Emperor!

After a while, Ye Tianchen and the mischievous Little Zhu Yan seemed to feel that the surrounding environment was becoming increasingly unsettling. They found themselves in the midst of a desert, vast and boundless. Except for sand, there were no plants or living beings. As Ye Tianchen put down Little Zhu Yan and they walked on the sand, it felt scorching, as if you could roast meat on it.

”What’s going on? There’s a desert in the deepest part of the Original Restricted Zone?” Ye Tianchen frowned and asked.

”I don’t know either. I’ve always lingered on the outskirts over the years. The lairs of the Vermilion Bird, Divine Monkey, and that Old Turtle are here. How would I dare come in?” Little Zhu Yan asked, puzzled.

Suddenly, Little Zhu Yan seemed to have discovered something, becoming excited, shouting, and rushing into the desert. His Eyes of Golden Flame flickered continuously, invigorated as if he’d found some major discovery.

”What’s the matter?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”Haha, I’m sure the Divine Spring Pit is in this desert. I remember when I was a child next to my father, he once said that the Divine Spring Pit is a treasure, almost developing its own Spiritual Wisdom. It’s not easy to capture. But the only issue with the Divine Spring Pit is that it absorbs all the Spiritual Energy wherever it is. For the Divine Spring Pit to truly evolve into a self-aware treasure, it needs time and a large amount of Spiritual Energy. Clearly, all the Spiritual Energy here has been absorbed by it, and there’s the presence of that Old Turtle. The Divine Spring Pit must be here!” The mischievous Little Zhu Yan said with certainty.

Next, Ye Tianchen could only see a Little Zhu Yan jumping up and down, running through the desert. His claws kept digging into the sand, seemingly wanting to unearth the Divine Spring Pit. Ye Tianchen sighed, too lazy to bother with the mischievous creature, lying on the only rock in the desert to nurture his body and mind, yawning leisurely!
