Chapter 681 - 633: Ziyun Spirit Awakening
Seeing that it was late, Shen Xuan bowed and took his leave.
"Take care, Mr. Shen. Visit me when you have the time."
"Rest assured, Tree Emperor. I will often come to visit."
As the only Grass and Wood Demon Emperor in the Wilderness, the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor experienced a kind of loneliness from the heights he had attained.
Shen Xuan was one of the very few friends he could trust.
Although they continuously engaged in exchanges of interest.
Overall, Shen Xuan had never deceived or betrayed him.
After Shen Xuan left.
"Ziyun, is this person truly worthy of your high regard?"
In the void, a tall and formidable man appeared.
His arms extended beyond his knees, resembling an iron tower, with high brows and deep eyes, his face was distinctively angular, and his eyes flashed with golden light.
It was the Divine Power Ape Emperor, one of the eight Demon Emperors of the Wilderness.
"Mr. Shen is quite amusing, an intriguing person."
Replied the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor calmly.
"The aura of this person’s cultivation technique is rather mixed; it seems he practices a unique Demon Technique that can refine our Demon Race’s Inner Core and Essence Blood."
"So what?"
The Purple Yunting Tree Emperor was indifferent.
"Humans eat demons, demons eat humans; it has always been like this since ancient times."
"Even among our Demon Race, isn’t it still a matter of life and death, hunting one another?"
"Among their Human Race, it’s even more of a murderous struggle, with extremely cruel methods."
The voice of the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor, carried a hint of helplessness.
"Divine Power Ape, whether it’s Human Race cultivators or Demon Race cultivators, they all defy the heavens, fighting against fate. The plans of heaven are difficult to understand, and the destiny is hard to defy."
The Divine Power Ape Emperor seemed lost in thought.
After a while, there was a slight revelation, and he smiled slightly.
"Ziyun, tell me, if I ask him for help to resist heavenly punishment, will he agree?"
The Purple Yunting Tree Emperor chuckled.
"He will! As long as you offer something that interests him, he will definitely agree."
"Hmm. I secretly observed; the energy in this person, though obscure and hard to measure, somehow makes me feel a closeness."
"Closeness?"
"I can’t explain it; it’s just a feeling. Maybe he and I share some karmic ties? In the future, some highly unusual events might happen."
Upon hearing this, the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor was taken aback.
At the level of a Demon Emperor, there is often an intuition about certain mysteries.
Even the Divine Power Ape Emperor said so.
Then Shen Xuan’s future must be a bright path, and his Realm Cultivation might ascend to another level.
At the very least, he has the strength to connect with mighty figures like the Divine Power Ape Emperor.
...
Shen Xuan rode the Silver-Horned Celestial Horse back to Starlight Island.
Cold Ice Cave, Practice Room.
Shen Xuan closed his eyes, quietly contemplating.
This time, he met with the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor, offering only a branded copy of the "Primordial Longevity Fiend," in exchange for the Purple Yunting Spiritual Liquid and a thousand drops of Emperor’s Liquid.
This was not an equal exchange.
The Purple Yunting Tree Emperor was clearly favoring him.
This also meant that the awakening of the Purple Yunting Tree’s consciousness on Starlight Island was imperative.
"Actually, after the Spirit Awakening of the Purple Yunting Tree, practicing the ’Primordial Longevity Fiend’ would mean an additional guardian for Starlight Island."
Shen Xuan spent a month of his own Power of the Divine Soul to imprint the "Primordial Longevity Fiend."
The technique cannot be passed on lightly.
Many cultivation inheritances can only be understood and not conveyed through words.
If the cultivator’s own Realm Cultivation is insufficient, they often lose accuracy when describing a cultivation technique, with words failing to convey the message.
Divine Soul Brand, is where the cultivator impresses their understanding, experience, and insights into a Daoist Technique onto an inheritance jade scroll using their Power of the Divine Soul as the medium.
The recipient uses their Sea of Knowledge to directly sense the subtleties and cultivation process of the Daoist Technique.
The "Primordial Longevity Fiend" inheritance jade scroll that Shen Xuan traded to the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor, was branded with the Divine Soul of Ancient Fiend Demon Sovereign.
Ancient Fiend Demon Sovereign had cultivated this Demon Sect Secret Technique, with which it had a very high similarity.
However, the "Primordial Longevity Fiend" inheritance jade scroll branded by Shen Xuan’s Divine Soul can only be said to accurately preserve the early, shallow parts.
Toward the back, it became abstruse and incomprehensible, Shen Xuan had to grit his teeth and mimic to brand it.
"For a Grass and Wood Demon, it should be difficult to enter into a state of inner deviation, right."
"Hmm, when the time comes, I’ll write to the Purple Yunting Tree Emperor to ask for his guidance. Anyway, his cultivation progress will certainly be much faster."
"Besides, this Purple Yunting Tree can be considered his offspring. It’s only natural for him to support it to his utmost."
...
In the deep of night.
The moon hung like a silver plate in the sky over Starlight Island.
The moonlight spilled down like water, gently cascading.
Shen Xuan came alone to the Purple Yunting Tree.
This was a forbidden area on Starlight Island, surrounded by numerous Array Restrictions.
Without the Island Master’s permission, even a Core Formation Realm True Master would find it hard to pass through these Array Restrictions.
At this moment, Shen Xuan stood quietly beneath the Purple Yunting Tree.
The spiritual Qi here was abundant, under the shroud of faint purple Spiritual Light, it was like an Immortal Realm.
Shen Xuan looked up, gazing at the towering Purple Yunting Tree, standing a hundred meters tall.
The tree crown was like a great canopy, the branches and leaves exuded an aura of brilliant luminosity.
He could sense the tree’s vast vitality.
But the Purple Yunting Tree still functioned on instinct, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, drawing in Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
It had not yet awakened its consciousness, remaining in a state of chaos.
At this time, it was the full moon, when the Taiyin Essence was at its peak.
Shen Xuan’s Divine Thought stirred.
The Seven-heart Bodhi, exuding brilliant luster from its seven orifices, surfaced.
Once it appeared, the surrounding spiritual Qi mysteriously calmed.
A sense of serenity, wisdom, and compassion quietly spread, bringing even Shen Xuan’s own emotions to calm.
"Ziyun, our meeting in this mysterious way, is destiny. Today, I bestow upon you a fortune, aiding you in awakening your spiritual consciousness, hoping you may, in the future, perceive your true nature and glimpse the great Dao."
Shen Xuan whispered to himself.
All things have spirits.
Shen Xuan believed that even though the Purple Yunting Tree was in a state of ignorance, with unawakened consciousness, it could still sense his goodwill.
Shen Xuan held his breath, focusing his mind, Pill Essence Spiritual Power slowly circulating.
This time, he used the Water Spiritual Power of the "Divine Hidden Sea Technique," without any chill or sharpness, only warm spiritual power teeming with vitality.
