People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Before a shattered world, Yang Xuan stood amidst the chaos, creating an avatar that entered it.

Upon entering, Yang Xuan discovered that this world was different from what he had seen outside.

The earth of this world has cracked, the rivers have dried up, and all the countless spiritual trees and plants have died, exuding an aura of decay and death everywhere.

But at the center of the world, there stands a colossal ancient tree, hundreds of millions of feet tall, reaching down to the deepest hell and up to the highest heavens, with countless stars hanging on its branches like withered fruit.

Although the ancient tree is completely withered and yellow, with its leaves fallen, it still retains a trace of life.

The special feeling that guided Yang Xuan here was precisely this ancient tree, or rather, something on this ancient tree.

Yang Xuan concealed his aura, took a step forward, and arrived at the canopy of the ancient tree, which was the celestial realm of this small world.

If it's just a vast world, then it's not rare; there are many in the primordial world.

But if this vast world is part of a spiritual root, then it's different.

This is the situation in this broken world.

The roots of this ancient tree are the earth, its canopy is the heavens, the stars are its fruits hanging on its branches, and its trunk is its support, holding up this world!
This was the first time Yang Xuan had ever seen such a massive spiritual root. Its strength was probably comparable to the top-grade innate spiritual roots of the primordial world.

Unfortunately, this spiritual root now only has a sliver of life left and is on the verge of complete annihilation.

"Did you lead me here so that I would save you?"

Yang Xuan stood on the tree trunk and asked softly.

Spiritual roots possess a spirit; if it was truly this ancient tree that guided him here, then as long as Yang Xuan spoke, this dying tree would respond.

But the result was beyond Yang Xuan's expectations. The ancient tree did respond, but not by a single tree.

In response to Yang Xuan's question, the ancient tree first gave an affirmative answer, and then conveyed a sense of 'no'.

Yang Xuan thought for a moment, had some guesses in his mind, and continued to ask:
"You wanted me to save you, but you didn't lead me here, did you?"

This time, the ancient tree conveyed an "yes," confirming Yang Xuan's guess.

"Your situation doesn't look too good..."

Yang Xuan did not rush to find the thing that had guided him here. Instead, he flew around the ancient tree once, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked thoughtful.

Now that he's in this world and no longer in chaos, Yang Xuan can find that thing as long as it's in this world.

This is the confidence of someone who has mastered the great principles of destiny and cause and effect!

Instead, Yang Xuan was more concerned about how to revive the ancient tree.

If nothing unexpected happens, this ancient tree is not a spiritual root of heaven and earth, but a spiritual root of chaos born from chaos!

Chaotic spiritual roots should also have grades; not all chaotic spiritual roots are necessarily more profound than heaven and earth spiritual roots.

However, the rarity of Chaos Spiritual Roots is absolutely incomparable to that of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots.

Even a sage probably doesn't have many Chaos Spiritual Roots in his possession.

It is even rarer to find a tree like the ancient tree before us, where the entire world is merely an extension of its form.

At its peak, it was at least comparable to a top-grade innate spiritual root.

If it can be saved, it will definitely enhance Yang Xuan's foundation. Even if it has no other use, it should be no problem to use it to suppress destiny.

No one ever thinks they have too many spiritual objects that suppress destiny.

More importantly, after flying around, Yang Xuanfei had a vague feeling that this ancient tree seemed to be connected to him, and if he could revive it, he would have unexpected gains.

He had a vague feeling that the stars on this ancient tree contained a natural array.

If this grand formation is an array that grew alongside this ancient tree, wouldn't that mean it's a chaotic array?
Although Yang Xuan didn't know if the Chaos Formation was stronger than the formations of the Primordial Era, he was certain that the Chaos Formation could definitely complement the formations of the Primordial Era and perfect the Dao of Formations.

However, Yang Xuan is still unsure how to save him.

Yang Xuan currently has two ideas for saving this ancient tree.

Firstly, we should start with the ancient tree itself, enhance its vitality, and allow it to begin self-repair.

Secondly, starting with this broken world, this vast world is an extension of this ancient tree of chaos, and also a part of it.

Once this world is repaired, its very essence will nourish the Ancient Tree of Chaos, helping it to return to its original state.

After carefully considering the options and confirming that there were no potential enemies or dangers in this world, Yang Xuan's main body flew into this world and chose the third option.

If Yang Xuan hadn't learned the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones technique, he could only choose one option. But with the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones technique, he could pursue both options simultaneously.

With his cultivation level as a Quasi-Saint of Two Corpses, and possessing the Mysterious Spirit Gourd, a primordial spiritual treasure for cultivating spiritual roots, it would take him quite some time to restore this ancient tree to its peak.
But simply keeping this ancient tree alive and preventing it from dying out is not a problem; it can be done easily.

As for repairing this broken world, Yang Xuan had no similar experience, but he had some understanding of the Great Dao of Space, and he also had a rule ruler incorporating the Measuring Ruler in his hand, so it was not something he could not try.

Although repairing a world and creating a world are not comparable at all, they have some similarities.

If this world can be restored, it will lay the foundation and accumulate experience for the future creation of the world.

Yang Xuan has always been quite perceptive. At first, he was completely clueless about repairing a world and didn't know where to begin.

But gradually, Yang Xuan became more and more skilled at it, and later on, he became quite adept at it.

With a simple spell, one can repair a damaged ley line; with a casual tap, one can restore a star to its original state, allowing it to shine brightly once more.

For a quasi-saint, the vast world is not that big. After mastering the techniques of repairing the world, this damaged world is developing in a positive direction every moment.

It will be about 100,000 years from now in this world.

The depleted ley lines regained their spiritual energy, the silent starry sky shone brightly once more, and the shattered world became whole again, brimming with spiritual energy.

Even in the primordial era, it could at least be considered a medium-sized blessed land.

But the most obvious change is in the ancient tree itself.

Over the years, Yang Xuan has been working to revitalize this ancient tree, and the once withered tree has become lush and green again.

Meanwhile, as this world is gradually restored, the world's primordial power is also gradually recovering, feeding back into the ancient tree and accelerating its recovery.

This ancient tree is now once again adorned with billions of stars, emanating a profound Daoist aura that nourishes this world, further strengthening its fundamental nature and creating a positive cycle. Or rather, the very essence of this world is this ancient tree itself; the two are inherently one.

However, the ancient tree suffered severe damage, or perhaps the world itself was destroyed, causing this cycle to break.

Thanks to Yang Xuan's years of restoration efforts, the ancient tree has been restored to some of its original appearance.

Also on this day.

Yang Xuan looked up at the starry sky above the ancient tree and suddenly felt something. Trajectories appeared in his eyes, connecting the stars to form a huge and complex array.

Yang Xuan is now a master of array formations, possessing remarkable expertise in the art, and he has even been able to comprehend the Zhou Tian Star Array.

Even within the Jie Sect, his mastery of array formations would rank among the top.

He gazed at the array formed by countless stars, drank a drop of Enlightenment Source Liquid, and the Golden Wheel of Morality appeared behind his head. He quickly entered a state of enlightenment and began to analyze the array.

The more he analyzed, the brighter Yang Xuan's eyes became, and the more he gained.

About 20,000 years later, Yang Xuan held the Ruler of Rules and waved it gently. Many points of light appeared around him, forming a starry sky that surrounded his body and formed a mysterious array.

If someone were to attack Yang Xuan from the outside, it would be as if they were in a completely different world.
Even if the opponent's attack still lands on him, it won't cause him any damage; it's an incredibly powerful defensive formation.

To be precise, it's not as if he's separated by another world, but rather that Yang Xuan's current body is truly surrounded by a complete and vast world!

The formation that Yang Xuan comprehended from the ancient tree can evolve into a world, which is the origin of the world before him.

After comprehending the array contained within the stars, Yang Xuan also obtained information about this ancient tree.

This ancient tree is called the Starry Sky Ancient Tree. It is a top-grade chaotic spiritual root born from chaos, and its existence predates even the primordial era.

As early as when Pangu created the world, the Starry Sky Tree had already taken root in the chaos, evolving into a vast world around its body.

That world back then was much larger than this one. Although it hadn't yet broken through the limits of the Great Thousand Worlds, it was still the size of a dozen or so Great Thousand Worlds, and contained countless smaller worlds.

If the ancient star tree is allowed to grow freely, life will be born in this world, that is, innate life.

It's hard to say whether it can evolve into a world like the primordial era, but it can definitely become a complete world.

Unfortunately, in the battle where Pangu created the world, the Star Tree was affected by the aftermath of the battle, and the stars were destroyed, causing a devastating blow to the entire world.

In the end, the Ancient Tree of Stars had no choice but to plunge the entire world into annihilation, preserving a last glimmer of life and leaving room for revival.

But it has so little chance of survival left; it is already at its limit to preserve this last glimmer of hope and avoid annihilation.

It is clearly impossible for it to recover on its own; it needs external assistance.

But this place is chaos, and it has experienced the great battle of Pangu creating the world. Finding external help is not an easy thing.
Moreover, the ancient star tree had little life left and no external assistance to seek.

That is why the Starry Sky Ancient Tree has been like this since the beginning of time, and it remains the same after all these years.

It wasn't until Yang Xuan arrived that the world regained some vitality and was able to re-evolve and maintain its internal and external cycles.

After understanding the origins of the Starry Sky Ancient Tree, Yang Xuan exclaimed, "It was worth it!"
This is a spiritual root that is even more ancient than the primordial era, so its upper limit is unimaginable.

If it were moved to the primordial wilderness, it would be enough to suppress the fortunes of the divine and commercial paths, ensuring that hundreds or thousands of yuan would not be affected.

But this idea only flashed through Yang Xuan's mind and he had no intention of doing so.

The Chaos Spiritual Root is called the Chaos Spiritual Root because it is rooted in chaos and can use chaos as nourishment to grow.

With Yang Xuan's current cultivation level, moving the Starry Sky Ancient Tree to the Primordial World would not be a problem. However, doing so would restrict the growth of the Starry Sky Ancient Tree, which would truly be a waste of its precious resources!

It should be noted that at its peak, the Starry Sky Ancient Tree was the size of more than a dozen Great Thousand Worlds, with countless smaller worlds within it.

And this is only the peak period of the Starry Sky Ancient Tree, not its extreme state.

Given enough opportunity, the Starry Sky Ancient Tree could potentially give birth to innate beings and become a second primordial world!
The so-called innate spiritual treasures and innate spiritual roots are spiritual treasures and spiritual roots that are born innately. If the ancient star tree can evolve into the primordial world.

As the current owner of this ancient star tree, wouldn't all the innate spiritual treasures and innate spiritual roots in this world belong to Yang Xuan?

If we're lucky, perhaps when the Starry Sky Ancient Tree evolves into the primordial world, it will give birth to one or two innate treasures, or even attract the Chaos Bell, which would be an even greater windfall.

The difficulty of achieving this is self-evident.

The fact that even sages couldn't discover a second primordial world in the chaos speaks volumes.

Let alone evolving the primordial world, even restoring the Starry Sky Ancient Tree to its peak period is an extremely difficult task. Relying solely on the Starry Sky Ancient Tree itself would require at least a hundred Yuan Hui!

However, it is clear that given Yang Xuan's personality, the fact that he could come up with such an idea means that he must have a corresponding solution that can speed up the process.

This solution is also a message conveyed by the ancient star tree.

Although the spiritual roots are not very intelligent and only have some instincts, such as the initial communication, the Starry Sky Ancient Tree can only convey vague information such as 'yes' or 'no'.

In a way, this kind of consciousness is somewhat similar to the consciousness of the primordial world.

However, Yang Xuan could still understand what the ancient star tree was trying to convey: that his chaotic spiritual root was not an isolated case.

When Pangu created the world, there were many such chaotic spiritual roots in the chaos, but many of them were affected during the war that created the world.

If Yang Xuan can find the remains of these chaotic spiritual roots and use them to feed the Starry Sky Ancient Tree, he can accelerate its growth.

Leaving aside the evolution of the primordial world, as long as three or five remnants of spiritual roots are found, the Starry Sky Ancient Tree can be restored to its full glory.

This kind of recovery process is practically like restarting the world!
Over the years, Yang Xuan's understanding of the Great Dao of Space has greatly improved through repairing this world.

If we can observe this process, it will give us more confidence in opening the twenty-four heavens of Buddhism in the future. It won't be a sure thing, but it will be a safe bet.

The only problem now is how to find these remnants of spiritual roots.

This place is chaos, devoid of concepts like time, space, and causality. The fact that the ancient star tree has lingered here for so many years without ever being discovered speaks volumes.

Without guidance, trying to find the remnants of a spiritual root in the chaos is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Coincidentally, the Starry Sky Ancient Tree did indeed have a way to guide Yang Xuan to find these remnants of spiritual roots in the chaos.

Or rather... he possesses something that can guide Yang Xuan, a special spiritual object that led Yang Xuan here! (End of Chapter)
