The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 984: Star River Ancient Tree

Chapter 984: Star River Ancient Tree

As soon as Su Jingzhen spoke, the expressions of Shangguan Tiantong, Lin Xiu, and the others suddenly changed.

After a moment of silence, they nodded their heads.

Of course, they understood what Su Jingzhen meant.

After all, in the Elven Forest, they had only been spectators, enjoying the glory without lifting a finger.

But in Tianmu City, countless forces had gathered, including all kinds of unsavory characters.

While the first-rate and top-tier forces might still hesitate to act against them out of respect for the Divine Dan Sect's reputation, Tianmu City was filled with rogue cultivators.

Many of these desperate cultivators wouldn't care about the Divine Dan Sect's might.

They only cared about whether killing you would bring them the benefits they desired.

As for the Divine Dan Sect's retaliation? That was nothing to them.

As the saying goes, “Those with nothing to lose fear nothing.”

In the cultivation world, there were countless lawless lands where no sect's rules held sway.

If things went wrong, they could just hide in those places. Then what could the Divine Dan Sect do to them?

Therefore, Lin Xiu and the others knew that even though their group of fifty or sixty might seem small, even the elders lurking in the shadows couldn't guarantee their complete safety in many situations.

"Junior Brother Su, there's no need to worry.

We were chosen to participate in this mission because we understand this principle.

In countless trials in the past, many fellow disciples have fallen before my eyes. When we set out, we were already prepared for this.

Trials are always about growing through blood and fire."

Lin Xiu smiled as he spoke to Su Jingzhen.

He seemed to be quite at ease with the situation, and the other Divine Dan Sect members behind him nodded silently.

Su Jingzhen didn't say anything. He turned his gaze to Tianmu City.

At this moment, countless powerful auras surged around them. With a slight sweep of his divine consciousness, he could sense dozens of violent energy fluctuations.

These were clearly the signs of cultivators engaged in battle.

An even more majestic and holy aura was emanating from the northern part of Tianmu City, where all the powerful cultivators had gathered.

"Senior Brother Shangguan, since you're familiar with Tianmu City, which secret realm do you think we should target? Lead the way."

Having come this far, Su Jingzhen had full confidence in Shangguan Tiantong's abilities.

Without hesitation, he handed over the decision-making authority to Shangguan Tiantong.

The latter nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The Divine Shepherd Sect controls many secret realms, but not all of them are suitable for the Divine Dan Sect.

Apart from the most important treasure vaults, each sect typically has its own secret elemental realms.

For the Divine Dan Sect, the most suitable elemental realms are fire and wood.

We're currently located in the southwest corner of Tianmu City, while the headquarters of the Divine Shepherd Sect is located in the Shepherd God Mountain Range to the north. We're closer to the Wood Elemental Realm.

Why don't we go to the Wood Elemental Realm next? Hopefully, we can find something useful there. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Moreover, the Divine Shepherd Sect's Wood Elemental Realm is a legend throughout the cultivation world."

Upon hearing Shangguan Tiantong's words, no one present raised an objection.

As for Jian Ling, Yan Xia, and the others, their goal was simply to stay by Su Jingzhen's side. Where they went didn't matter much to them.

With the decision made, the group didn't hesitate. They flew low and fast toward the Wood Elemental Realm under the Divine Shepherd Sect's control in Tianmu City.

At this moment, Tianmu City was a chaotic mix of people, with large teams of hundreds frequently seen.

A small group of fifty or sixty people like theirs hardly attracted any attention.

As they moved forward, Su Jingzhen and the others couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy.

The buildings they passed were now mostly in ruins, with numerous corpses scattered among the debris.

The remnants of shattered souls and resentful spirits were everywhere.

The devastation suffered by the Divine Shepherd Sect was even more severe and thorough than Su Jingzhen and the others had initially imagined.

This was a root-and-branch extermination.

They didn't want to leave even the slightest spark of hope for the Divine Shepherd Sect.

After roughly the time it takes to burn two sticks of incense, countless powerful auras surged ahead once more.

Chaotic and violent energy fluctuations came along with them.

Su Jingzhen suddenly stopped and turned to look solemnly at the Divine Dan Sect disciples behind him.

"There are countless cultivators gathered ahead, and a chaotic battle is already underway.

Clearly, that must be the location of the Wood Elemental Secret Realm or its entrance. Brothers and sisters, be careful."

After this warning, a glint of excitement appeared in Su Jingzhen's eyes, and he led the group forward.

They arrived at a picturesque mountain stream, but the water flowing through it was tinged with red.

The stream was littered with corpses wearing the clothes of various sects.

The once rich spiritual energy of the mountain stream now carried a faint hint of blood.

"The entrance to the secret realm of the wood elementals is at the end of this mountain stream. It seems that these corpses are the result of those who tried to monopolize the secret realm and paid the price."

Shangguan Tiantong spoke again, his tone filled with emotion.

However, he instinctively moved closer to the center of the Divine Dan Sect group.

Although he was practically the all-knowing scholar of the cultivation world, his combat prowess was lacking.

He was one of the weakest fighters in the Divine Dan Sect's current group.

All around the mountain stream, fierce battles were taking place, with dazzling spells and attacks erupting one after the other.

Su Jingzhen and the others suppressed their auras and cautiously moved toward the depths of the mountain stream.

Soon, a towering ancient tree came into view.

The tree itself exuded an aura of peace, surrounded by a faint green halo that contrasted starkly with the bloodshed around it.

"Junior Brother Su, this is the famous Star River Ancient Tree of the cultivation world.

It was once one of the Divine Shepherd Sect's most treasured possessions. The tree itself has reached the level of an Immortal King, but it is far too peaceful, remaining absolutely neutral in all matters of the world.

Although it is rooted in the Divine Shepherd Sect, it does not involve itself in any of the sect's affairs.

There are even rumors that the Star River Ancient Tree has no martial skills whatsoever.

The Divine Shepherd Sect's wood elemental secret realm lies within this ancient tree!

Inside the Star River Ancient Tree, there is a secret realm filled with countless wood and plant spirits."

As he looked at the ancient tree, Shangguan Tiantong's expression grew excited.

The eyes of the members of the Divine Dan Sect also lit up.

At the mention of the Star River Ancient Tree, most of them immediately recalled the legends.

It was said that since ancient times, the Divine Dan Sect had infiltrated the Divine Shepherd Sect's territory multiple times. The great figures of the Divine Dan Sect had repeatedly invited the Star River Ancient Tree to take root within their own territory, but they had never succeeded.

After all, the Divine Dan Sect had always been deeply connected to plants and herbs, and they coveted the realm within the Star River Ancient Tree immensely.

This was one of the greatest regrets in the history of the Divine Dan Sect.

As for Su Jingzhen, the moment he laid eyes on the Star River Ancient Tree, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

"What a magnificent tree, but it's in the wrong place.

However, meeting me is your good fortune."
