"This is the divine tree... the aura of the Tree of Wisdom?"

"No, it also has a bit of the aura of your friend, the divine tree Fusang!"

Seeing the crystal in Su Zhou's hand, Yala was slightly stunned, a little confused: "But Su Zhou, even if you use yourself as a seed, it takes hundreds or thousands of years to cultivate a divine tree—don't tell me you want to turn the divine tree into a family heirloom, passed down from father to son, generation after generation?"

The snake spirit couldn't help but want to laugh at the thought of this scene.

But soon, He understood Su Zhou's true intention.

The snake spirit stared at the 'Amber Celestial Crystal' in Su Zhou's hand, seeing through the crystalline structure containing some divine tree power, and shook His tail in surprise: "I see—you didn't really plan to have everyone cultivate into the body of a divine tree... You just introduced the blood aura of the divine tree, just like the undying roots of the divine tree world in the past, so that people can live longer!"

"Indeed. Apart from a few geniuses, where do ordinary cultivators get extra spiritual power to supply the divine tree while cultivating?"

Su Zhou nodded slightly: "Like a family, just having enough vitality is enough. And because the Tree of Wisdom is located in my personal space, it has its own circulating spirituality to supplement it. As long as there is enough spiritual power, the divine tree aura it emits can be said to be endless."

"And as a derivative of the Tree of the Great Dao, a representative of the 'Way of Reproduction', the more life races with the aura of the Tree of Wisdom, the more feedback it can get, the faster it grows, the more perfect it becomes, and naturally, the more powerful it becomes."

In the past, the Eden lineage used the fruit of the Tree of Wisdom to enlighten all beings, precisely because of this—the more lives enlightened by the aura of the Tree of Wisdom, the more powerful the divine tree would become. This is the natural growth and evolution system of the divine tree lineage. It is mainly a win-win, rather than an exploitative system.

Not long ago, the Tree of Wisdom absorbed the Dust of the World to advance, becoming the Boundary-Residing Divine Tree that dominated the ecology of Su Zhou's personal space, and has been growing ever since.

And just as Su Zhou entered the Perfect World, the Tree of Wisdom was awakened by the majestic spiritual energy of the Perfect Primal World.

Now, its roots have spread throughout the entire personal space—although they are not physical, just air roots formed by spiritual energy, the Tree of Wisdom is different from the Panrong Undying Tree in the first place. As a legendary divine tree rooted in the Eden of Light, in its complete form, it can even transform into the form of fire and light at any time, becoming a pure spirit tree.

As the contractor and cultivator of the Tree of Wisdom, and the identity of the Divine Tree King of the Panrong Undying Tree, Su Zhou can also be considered half of the divine tree lineage. Although he does not have any plant-related divine powers, he can communicate with most divine tree lineage existences and holds a high degree of authority.

At least, it is really easy to condense Amber Celestial Crystals with the Tree of Wisdom and spread its inheritance.

Using oneself as a seed, cultivating a divine tree.

Ever since he learned that the earth of this world would absorb the lifespan of all living beings, Su Zhou had always had this idea.

And after learning the relevant information from Ming Zhengde, the idea in Su Zhou's mind became more complete.

—There is no spirituality in the entire world. For cultivators, it is just that the cultivation place is more difficult. After all, the soul generates spirituality, which is enough for self-cultivation and combat. At most, it is impossible to cause changes in the world, and it is somewhat disadvantageous in large-scale attacks.

If the will is strong enough, this is not a bad thing, but a kind of tempering similar to weight training. After all, without the five spirits of heaven and earth, there would be no five turbidities of heaven and earth, which can make people's souls and bodies more clear and pure.

What truly makes it difficult for gods, demons, and strong people to be born in this world is actually lifespan!

The Heavenly Realm of this world, which governs Human Immortals, has only five hundred years of life. If you want to advance to Earth Immortal, it is equivalent to saying that you can achieve the realm of immortals and gods in five hundred years on Earth.

Is it long? Not long. Being able to cultivate into immortals and gods in five hundred years is actually considered a genius—Su Zhou's kind, who is close to the Heavenly Immortal realm in less than five years, is a monster. In the Central Divine Court or any world, it is enough to shock everyone.

Even the Overlord Earth Immortal has only a thousand years of life, and in this Perfect World, if there are hidden injuries in the body, a lot of cultivation and lifespan are needed to suppress them, let alone trying to break through to the realm of gods and demons.

Su Zhou dares to say that if the Tianyuan Mortal World can solve the related lifespan problem, then a batch of Real Person powerhouses will definitely emerge quickly, and many powerhouses who are originally stuck at the peak of the Real Person realm may also take a gamble and try to break through to the realm of gods and demons!

Moreover, the Perfect World has continued for millions of years, and has not encountered a spiritual energy interruption, yet the number of Real Persons is still only this little, precisely because lifespan is limited, and the experience of the strong and the inheritance cannot be accumulated.

—Since there is a Longevity Tribulation in this world, making it difficult for the strong to appear and accumulate, and difficult to break through, then I will solve it.

Su Zhou does not know the true face of the 'Longevity Substance', but can only roughly know that it is a mysterious substance combined with spirituality and some unknown things.

He can't find any way to isolate the earth veins from extracting lifespan energy for the time being.

But, since someone is drawing water, and there is no way to stop them, then why bother blocking it?

It is better to simply take a different approach, for example, making the pool bigger, so that they can draw it for a longer time!

"As far as I know—I estimate that all the heavens and myriad worlds are like this—the one with the longest lifespan in this world is the divine tree lineage."

"When you reach the Overlord Realm, the lifespan of the divine tree lineage can be said to be endless. As long as there are no accidents, you can be immortal and indestructible."

"Even in the strangest world, in any kind of desperate situation, a complete divine tree can survive, and even reproduce—even in a spiritless and desperate situation, as long as you wait for the spiritual energy to recover, the seemingly decayed divine tree will wake up again."

Su Zhou said leisurely, gazing at the Amber Celestial Crystal containing the power of the divine tree in his hand, he smiled slightly: "However, this world's earth veins are abnormal, and the divine tree cannot grow and become strong at all, reaching the point where it can resist the earth vein's abnormality."

"But that doesn't matter. Since the ground doesn't allow planting trees, planting with your own body should be no problem, right?"

This is a solution that Su Zhou conceived in order to cope with the Longevity Tribulation.

—Using my body and my spirit, planting the undying tree, cultivating the immortal bud!

"You only need to implant an Amber Celestial Crystal containing the aura of the divine tree into your body, and then cultivate it with your own spirituality and spiritual power, so that the Celestial Crystal can sprout, the undying root enters the body, the immortal leaf enters the soul, and it merges with itself. If it is a human race, it can roughly increase the lifespan by two times initially."

"If there is enough earth vein spiritual energy to promote the growth of the divine tree, then the lifespan can be increased four times."

"If there is a rare item like Earth Vein Spiritual Marrow as a guide to promote cultivation, and the cultivator himself has a high level of cultivation, reaching the Heavenly Realm, then the lifespan can be increased to eight times!"

Su Zhou paused slightly at this point.

Because although eight times the lifespan does not sound like much, it is actually enough for the beings of this world.

Although the Longevity Tribulation has further intensified, the current Heavenly Realm cultivators of this world only have five hundred years of lifespan, but an increase of eight times is four thousand years of lifespan!

But this is not the limit!

Su Zhou stretched out his left hand, and took out a small bottle of 'Dust of the World' from his personal space.

Lifting this bottle of dust and debris that exudes a silver-gray starlight, the young man smiled and said: "Finally, if there is a rare item like the Dust of the World that the divine tree needs most, or other precious spiritual objects, then the 'Amber Celestial Crystal' in the body can be promoted to its final form—that is, the 'Longevity Flower' which is almost a divine tree."

"In this way, you can get nearly twenty times the lifespan!"

This kind of lifespan, if converted to the Real Person's thousand-year lifespan, is about twenty thousand years of lifespan.

Even if it can't compare to other worlds, the Overlord Earth Immortal has already initially achieved immortality, and can exist with the world until the world is destroyed.

But it is already very exaggerated, enough to be called longevity.

With the support of such majestic vitality, whether it is a serious hidden injury, or the vitality needed to maintain peak combat power, it is more than enough to provide.

Undying root, immortal leaf, using oneself as a seed, blooming a longevity flower.

Although, this is just Su Zhou's initial idea.

But with the high-speed deduction of the 'Power of Eternal Innovation', Su Zhou can be sure that this path is roughly feasible.

Of course, there must be many problems.

The Power of Eternal Innovation can accelerate Su Zhou's thinking and deduction speed, allowing him to quickly understand a kind of Dao technique, a kind of inheritance, and find all kinds of mistakes, correct them and improve.

But this supernatural power, what it needs most, is actually the accumulation of a lot of data—in other words, many things deduced by the Power of Eternal Innovation may be okay for him to use, but others cannot.

After all, not everyone has his talent, his physical fitness, and the ability to withstand mistakes brought by undying blood.

—To put it simply, Su Zhou's own situation is similar to perfect preset conditions, but others have their own shortcomings or even special features, and cannot apply the 'prototype template'.

Therefore, before the official implementation, Su Zhou needs to find a guy who is relatively weak and not very talented, to let the other party try to cultivate this method and collect preliminary data... then, based on this, design a set of 'mass production templates' and promote it to the whole people.

This mass-produced template, if there are strong people who can deduce according to their own situation, can be evolved into a 'specially installed template'.

If those individuals who are naturally in line with the way of the divine tree, or who have adaptability to the divine tree, after awakening the specially installed template, may even be able to directly ascend to the sky in one step, directly sublimating the 'Longevity Flower' into the 'Nascent Divine Tree', and officially begin the cultivation of the divine tree body!

And if this step is successful, then even in this world where the earth veins extract lifespan, you can live close to infinity, immortal and indestructible!

"The Tree of the Great Dao should really thank me. I'm helping Him spread His family in another world. I'm simply a compassionate Buddha."

"But, who is better to look for?"

Thinking so, Su Zhou climbed to the top of a Beiling mountain peak that had not yet collapsed.

It was already dusk.

The long strip of the sun fell into the horizon, and the deep red twilight light shone on the clouds.

Su Zhou looked into the distance, watching the residents of Beiling City, who had already begun to migrate towards the state capital under the incarnation of Da Zhou Tianlan Seeds, under the setting sun, and fell into contemplation: "A weak, average talent, but reliable guy... is harder to find than a strong one."

But soon, he found a good candidate in his heart.

"That's right." Nodding slightly, the young man smiled: "She is not bad."

At this moment.

Personal space.

Around the upside-down Tree of Wisdom, cyan and white spiritual light rolled in the air like a tide.

Beside the divine tree that exuded endless wisdom, a bee-person, who was humming a song, was scanning the branches of the Tree of Wisdom one by one with a large spiritual machine that Su Zhou had ordered for her, like a magnifying glass.

"Tree, the spiritual energy in this part of you is not running harmoniously enough. Adjust it quickly, otherwise this leaf will turn yellow and look bad!"

"Tree, you're growing crooked here. This small branch should be tilted to the eleven o'clock direction to form a natural formation!"

"Tree..."

Sara, who is now five years old and has completely come of age (bee-person only), is singing and easily guiding the Tree of Wisdom to refine its various parts, and the huge divine tree is happy to do so, listening to Sara's guidance and growing according to plan.

The bee-person race is naturally good at taking care of plants and does not feel bored. Even Sara's family is just tired of going to the same flower field every day to raise flowers and collect honey, or cultivate all kinds of messy plants, but it doesn't mean they don't like taking care of plants.

Being able to take care of a divine tree is simply the most beautiful errand for a bee-person—it would be even better if the divine tree would bloom.

But, when the bee and the tree were happily playing.

"Are you there?"

Sara suddenly heard a voice coming from the top of the personal space's sky.

"Sara, Tree of Wisdom."

The voice was like thunder. As soon as it appeared, it vibrated the spiritual energy of the entire world, causing the great sun in the sky and the ocean to shake: "I have a divine tree lineage technique here for experimental purposes. There is no danger. At most, a sapling will grow on your head. I will personally supervise the testing process. Are you interested in trying it?"

"...Huh, a sapling growing on my head?"

At first, Sara was a little scared—after all, this description sounded a lot like a fungal disease that often appeared in the neighboring ant-people and moth-people, where zombie fungi or cordyceps would grow.

This sounds really scary to insect-people, about equivalent to humans having four wisdom teeth pulled, a migraine, and gastroenteritis.

It's not surprising that Sara has PTSD.

But after really understanding what Su Zhou said, she immediately became excited and started waving her hands: "I'm here, I'm here, Lord Judge!"

Even the Tree of Wisdom became excited, shaking its branches and making a sound: "Yay!"

—Experiment with techniques? x.

—Guidance in cultivation? √!

For Sara, who was born and raised in the Cycle World, the Lord of Judgment is a very familiar god, and she is also very clear about Su Zhou's battle power in the Cycle World, and understands how powerful the other party is.

With such a strong person present, not to mention that there is no danger, it is worth trying even if there is danger! And even techniques that such a strong person needs to experiment with must not be weak in nature. It is definitely a big win to get to cultivate for free.

"What's more... it's the divine tree lineage!"

During the time she has been following Su Zhou, Sara is not clear about anything else, but at least she knows a lot about the 'divine tree lineage' related to the Tree of Wisdom.

That is a race with an almost endless lifespan and an incredibly powerful vitality.

For them, the vicissitudes of life are just trivial matters. The rise and fall of a race, the undulation of a mountain range, and the drying up and surging of a sea are all just fleeting clouds.

Even if a meteorite hits the planet, the cataclysmic disaster of the extinction of all things is just an embellishment of life for a mature divine tree. And if it grows to a complete divine tree, even if the great sun collapses and the world shatters, it is just a matter of moving house.

As for the insect-people, they are just a race that is fortunate to have a lifespan of more than twenty years.

The history of a large insect-person tribe cannot even witness a divine tree from a sapling to maturity.

A 'nap' in the eyes of a divine tree may be the entire life of an insect-person.

Sara and the Tree of Wisdom have a good relationship. The Tree of Wisdom also likes this enthusiastic friend very much. They don't want lifespan to become a shackle that limits friendship.

It's really too strange to talk about lifespan in the transcendent world.

Originally, the Tree of Wisdom had considered turning Sara into its family... but it had never done this kind of thing, so it didn't know what to do, whether it would use too much force and cause danger—and now, Su Zhou wants to deduce related divine tree lineage cultivation methods to lay the groundwork for this, that's really great!

"You two are quite enthusiastic."

Su Zhou naturally knows the thoughts of the Tree of Wisdom and Sara—even without the Heart of No Thought, the thoughts of these two little guys can be seen clearly with the naked eye.

As an elder, he will naturally fulfill the wishes of the two little guys.

Smiling lightly, Su Zhou reached out and opened the personal space, grabbing Sara out like a rag doll: "Most of my cultivation methods are only good at attacking and destroying. If you want to increase your lifespan, you need to cultivate to a higher level, so I have been thinking about how to teach you techniques."

"Now it's just right. Taking you as the foundation, I will open a path to the divine tree, which can also be regarded as making up for this lineage for me!"

In this way, the attributes that Su Zhou holds are: 'Fire', which is the foundation of all supernatural powers and is good at strengthening; 'Water', which is aided by the Míng Hòng Transformation Dragon Art and water; 'Wind', which is aided by the Da Zhou Tianlan Seeds and wind; and 'Thunder', which is aided by the Imperial Five Extremes Divine Thunder True Method.

In addition, there is the Fire of Karma, which is at the top of supernatural powers and represents the power of wishes.

In terms of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, thunder magic can be regarded as 'Yin-Yang intermingling', and thunder and wind intermingle, which are inherently similar and can be regarded as one.

If Su Zhou goes further in this path, he can use the 'Yin-Yang Obscure Bright Sun-Moon Rotation Secret Treasure' power in the 'Candle Dragon Dharma Body' to differentiate the 'Imperial Five Extremes Divine Thunder True Method' and 'Da Zhou Tianlan Seeds' into Yin and Yang two Qi.

In that case, he would only lack 'Wood' and 'Earth'.

And if calculated in terms of the Western Four Elements, wind can be regarded as air, then he still lacks Earth.

In short, none of these inheritance cultivation methods can increase lifespan. They are all extremely powerful destructive methods.

It is enough to kill people. If you want to save people, either use the water and earth magic learned from the Cycle World to control blood and flesh to fill them, or Su Zhou himself will be merciful and use his own blood plus holy water to save people.

This is the flaw of lacking the 'Wood' and 'Earth' inheritance that can revive life and nourish all things with virtue.

Therefore, this divine tree path of using oneself as a seed is not only created for the beings of this Perfect World, but also a step for Su Zhou to improve his own cultivation path.

"Huh, this world, it's a bit uncomfortable..."

After coming to the Perfect World from the personal space, Sara immediately noticed something was wrong.

The insect-person girl frowned slightly. She held her arms in front of her flat chest, her wings vibrated slightly, and she said vigilantly: "I feel... my vitality is flowing away!"

Because she is an insect-person with a short lifespan, Sara immediately noticed the power of the Tianyuan Mortal World's earth to extract lifespan.

She sensed it slightly, and was immediately shocked to find that her original remaining lifespan of more than ten years, if continued to be extracted in this way, would only leave her with two or three years at best.

If she exerted herself too much, was injured, or cultivated excessively, she might grow old and die this year!

However, Sara is not afraid.

Because, she is very clear that the Lord of Judgment must have corresponding considerations when bringing herself to this world.

Sure enough, in the next moment, Su Zhou placed a cyan-brown Amber Celestial Crystal on the insect-person girl's forehead.

"Try to accept it."

A majestic but gentle voice sounded. Sara closed her eyes and listened to the guidance of the god.

Then, as illusory spiritual energy roots took root on the brown-haired girl's forehead, the Amber Celestial Crystal slowly merged into her forehead, eventually embedded on top of her forehead, like a gem.

"Ah..."

Letting out a soft cry, in this instant, Sara, whose strength was only at the Awakening level, suddenly sensed that an incomparably surging, like a vast ocean, vigorous vitality came from the top of her forehead, and then ran through her entire body!

She sensed that all the blood vessels in her body, in this instant, seemed to have all turned into root-like existences, beginning to absorb the spiritual energy from the surrounding world, spontaneously converting spiritual energy, nurturing spirituality and vitality, and enhancing her vitality in a gentle manner!

At the same time, there was also a cultivation formula that was brief, but very refined.

[—Heaven covers and earth bears, and all things are born. If heaven and earth lose their way, then use the body as earth, and the spirit as heaven.]

[Use life as a seed, hidden in the earth. When its Qi descends and is subdued, it is called Taiyin; when its Qi grows, it is called Shaoyang.]

[Taiyin and Shaoyang rotate naturally, which is the beginning and end of heaven and earth, the root of birth and death, and the gate of growth of all things. Practicing it will not lead to danger.]

The 'Yin-Yang Rotation Undying Method' created by Su Zhou, combining his understanding of cultivation, the Tree of Wisdom, life, the path of reincarnation, and even the 'Undying Blood' in his body, is a longevity method that uses the physical body and soul as the foundation of Yin and Yang of heaven and earth, cultivates a trace of divine tree aura in the body, and nurtures the endless vitality that rotates endlessly.

In theory, if someone cultivates it perfectly, then in a normal world, even at the Transcendent level, their lifespan can reach more than ten thousand years, almost like a divine tree.

And if they die, it is only a false death. As long as there is enough divine medicine to continue their lives and prolong their lifespan, they can also absorb the power of the medicine, and the withered wood can blossom again, and live another life!

And this false death period also lasts for ten thousand years, which can truly be called ten thousand years of immortality, and ten thousand years of imperishability.

Then, based on this, cultivating the Divine Tree Dao, one can advance a thousand miles a day.

However, after all, the Tianyuan Mortal World is different, so even the Undying Method cannot achieve longevity, and its effect is greatly reduced.

But even so, it is very considerable!

At this moment, Su Zhou placed a finger on Sara's forehead, who was in a daze, absorbing the inheritance of the Amber Celestial Crystal, and calmly transmitted information.

"The natural lifespan of insect-people is scarce, even shorter than that of humans. Therefore, the effect of the divine tree is most obvious on your race."

"Sara, try to introduce the power of heaven and earth and operate the Undying Method."

"There is no need to resist the pulling force of the earth veins. You only need to convert the spiritual energy—the old does not go, the new does not come. One in, one out, one life, one death, that is Yin-Yang rotation, endless life."

As the voice fell, for Sara, endless light and shadow information surged, and guidance diagrams for the operation of various meridians and spiritual energies appeared in her mind.

"No need to resist... endless life..."

Being absorbed of lifespan is a very terrifying feeling.

It's like dancing on the tip of a knife, suffocating in deep water.

Anyone with cultivation will subconsciously resist, just like people hold their breath when they enter the water.

As an insect-person, Sara, who felt this even more deeply, was originally like this.

But now, the girl did not know why, a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind.

That was a trace of wisdom stored in her heart because she had been by the side of the Tree of Wisdom for a long time.

—Yin and Yang rotate, endless life—

—To put it bluntly, it's like a pool of water, although it is constantly being pumped, it is also constantly being filled with water, right?

I just did this problem a few days ago when I was doing elementary school math problems!

Thinking so.

Then, she released her 'breath holding' with her will.

Beginning to 'breathe'.

In an instant, Su Zhou could sense that Sara's aura instantly changed from a pool of stagnant water to a flowing river.

Using the Amber Celestial Crystal as a guide, the spiritual energy in the heaven and earth was drawn into the body, converted into vitality, and maintained the long-term activity of the body.

And the impurities precipitated in the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth, mixed with the vitality extracted by the earth veins, were discharged from the body, making the cultivator herself more and more pure.

"...Not bad, although there are a few places that need to be modified, my general idea is correct—this Yin-Yang Rotation Undying Method can be used as the foundation for my future Wood-type cultivation method."

Observing the operation of spiritual energy in Sara's body, Su Zhou couldn't help but smile slightly.

The natural extraction force in the earth veins of the Tianyuan Mortal World has become a natural driving force, which can accelerate the cultivation speed of this method... There are two sides to everything in this world. Even this kind of natural disaster can be used as an aid to cultivation.

"You continue to cultivate this method. I will modify the technique at any time according to your cultivation status."

Reaching out his hand, Su Zhou added some steps to improve the technique into Sara's mind, upgrading the 'Yin-Yang Rotation Undying Method 0.1 Test Version' to the '0.15 Test Version'.

And Sara followed Su Zhou somewhat blankly, feeling her vitality and cultivation constantly improving.

Just as Su Zhou said, the old does not go, the new does not come. She could feel that although her body could only store so much vitality, the speed at which her vitality was lost slowed down a thousand times between the inflow and outflow of heaven and earth spiritual energy.

And in this process, in addition to the constantly increasing vitality upper limit, she could also feel that a large amount of her rich spirituality was being discharged and scattered into the surrounding heaven and earth.

This point was actually beyond Su Zhou's expectations.

Observing the natural spirituality overflowing from Sara's body, the young man couldn't help but show a strange expression: "This, it actually has this kind of effect..."

"So, just like when there are more plants, carbon dioxide becomes less and oxygen becomes more... the more divine tree lineage cultivators there are, the more powerful the spirituality in the heaven and earth becomes?"

"It seems that I didn't take the wrong step."

Although his eyes showed a strange expression, Su Zhou smiled very happily.

He allowed Sara, who was still cultivating seriously, with her eyes becoming brighter and brighter, and even showing a look of joy, to follow behind him.

The young man raised his head and looked up at the sky of the Tianyuan world.

The stars were twinkling, which were the eyes of many immortals and gods.

But Su Zhou was not afraid at all.

—If the world is flawed, then change the world.

Since the Longevity Tribulation is a shackle, then break it.

Using oneself as a seed, using people as trees, if the 140 billion beings in this Tianyuan Mortal World all cultivate this 'Yin-Yang Rotation Undying Method', can the rotating and activated heaven and earth spirituality gradually transform this world and create a new era?

And can the many cultivators who have regained their longevity go one step further and produce several gods and demons walking in the mortal world?

These are uncertain, unpredictable, and no one can tell, and cannot be set into a 'perfect' plan.

But this is innovation.

"Let's go."

He said so, and then the Lan seeds around him floated up, wrapping Sara and himself, transforming into the shape of a rocket. Su Zhou said to himself calmly: "Let's go to Zhongzhou."

The Da Zhou Tianlan Seed incarnation will bring back the three great craftsmen and the blade of the Blade of Extinction, and his main body can't help but want to see the appearance of the central empire of this world, the capital of the New Dynasty.

He had a feeling that there, he would definitely learn more about the secrets of this world, and learn more information about the gods and demons, Tianyuan, Phoenix, and even the 'Origin True Dragon' at the bottom of the earth.

And in the soul space, the snake spirit smiled, coiling its tail, witnessing all the innovations.

So, in the next moment.

Along with the rumbling thunder, a cyan-gold streamer transformed into a shooting star, cutting through the silence of the night sky, and speeding towards the center of this world.

Above the sky.

A star flickered, like a bright and extinguished gaze.

[Candle Day...]

[Like that Ming Zhengde, naturally awakened, an alien species containing Phoenix blood.]

Muttering to himself, the divine thought of the Great Emperor Taihao, who had just returned from inspecting the 'Return to the Ruins Burial Ground', was shaking in the Immortal Heaven.

The golden light of the vast sun shone on the divine realm, and endless spirituality flourished.

[But, it's not time yet.]

[The Nirvana Era has not yet arrived... The constellations of the heavens are not yet complete. The Ziwei Star Lord, who represents the human way in the mortal world in this era, has not yet returned.]

[...]

Long silence.

Finally, there was a sound that was like a sigh but not a sigh, like a laugh but not a laugh.

[Heh...]

At the same time.

All the divine bird races, who already knew that the Zhengyang Kingdom was carrying out突襲 in the New Dynasty, noticed the divine bird 'Candle Day' that appeared in 'Qinglin Prefecture', resisted the descent of the gods and demons, and defeated the joint attack of the next five Zhengyang Real Person-level combat powers.

"Candle Day, a bird I've never heard of."

"Yeah, I've never seen or heard of this name among the birds in the Central Continent."

"It is said to have come from Kunlun in the Western Continent. Have you heard of it?"

"...I don't know. Those immortals and gods built the prototype of the Immortal Heaven in the Western Continent tens of thousands of years ago, and drove away our ancestors. No one knows what kind of divine birds are there."

"Then it's likely to be true. Don't forget that we only found a mixed-race descendant with a trace of Xuánmíng Divine Phoenix blood from the Northern Continent 40,000 years ago and brought it back for protection. This proves that there are indeed divine birds in the various continents that we don't know about."

In the joint communication channel established with bloodlines as a guide, the exchanges of many divine birds were quite enthusiastic.

But soon, the topic turned to a strange direction.

"...Golden Wing, take a look, is this a mixed-race from your family?"

"No, it doesn't look like it. Although the shape of this wing is a bit similar, the feathers of our Peng birds are not like this. Those are the feathers of peacocks or Green Luan birds."

"Don't talk nonsense. Although the feathers do look a bit similar, this body shape looks like Chongming no matter how you look at it—look at this pectoral muscle and that crystal like a great sun. This is obviously a mixed-race of Chongming and Bifang!"

"Don't match them randomly. Who would be mixed with the Bifang birds, who have long beaks and short feathers, and are incompetent in martial arts! Although this Candle Day looks like our Chongming, look at this nearly Five Elements rotation of the four spirits alternating, and the various incarnations. This is obviously...is..."

In the spiritual sense channel of the many divine birds' secret exchanges, when the current Chongming bird said this, the entire channel fell silent.

Even the current Bifang bird, who wanted to spray back at the Chongming bird for being 'short-beaked and small-winged, and of low literary virtue', stopped speaking.

Yes, yes... It has the blessings of many spirits, the characteristics of many divine birds, can differentiate the various spirits into incarnations, and is so powerful...

Moreover, looking at the battle process, this Candle Day can not only illuminate the great sun, but also has a powerful vitality. It was hit by the full blow of the Sky-Splitting Sword Swallow Changfeng, who had once killed divine birds, and was only slightly injured, and recovered completely in a few breaths, with the obvious meaning of the Phoenix's immortality and Nirvana imperishability...

In addition, this divine bird is so righteous, confronting the gods and demons whenever it sees injustice, and protecting all living beings with all its strength. It is truly a model of morality, with abundant five virtues...

—The Phoenix has five spirits, and the Candle Day has four spirits.

—The Phoenix has five virtues, and the Candle Day is full of five virtues.

—The Phoenix has five virtue incarnations, and the Candle Day has four major incarnations.

—The Phoenix has Nirvana imperishability, and the Candle Day has a strong vitality.

—The Phoenix combines the strengths of all birds, and is a perfect symbol; the Candle Day is pieced together from many birds, and is also very powerful in battle.

Thus... the argumentation is over.

The answer is already obvious.

Thinking of this, the many divine birds who had never seen a real Phoenix couldn't help but have an extremely absurd thought in their hearts.

"...Although it's a bit unbelievable, but, as expected... this is a Phoenix, right?"

"Even if it's not pure blood, it's very close to pure blood—even that Ming Zhengde, who holds the Five Virtues Divine Light, because he is a human race, his Phoenix blood is probably not as much as this Candle Day!"

"If this Candle Day had the Five Virtues Divine Light, it should be 99.9% a Phoenix!"

"Who is closer to Candle Day? Hurry, go and meet it!"

For a time, the atmosphere in the entire channel was extremely hot.
