Perfection: I have a Tree of Ten Thousand Paths

"Boom!"

A sound like a mountain torrent rang out, and a blazing light appeared on the horizon, as if nine suns were rising together, dispelling the surrounding black mist.

Ahead, tens of thousands of lives had fled back, their faces pale and their expressions filled with fear and unease; among them were many powerful individuals.

"This is... the simultaneous revival of numerous treasures, forming a divine tide! Run!" the nine-headed lion roared in terror.

"Oh no! Their Noble Phantasms have all been activated! They're going to slaughter every living being who enters the ruins! Run!"

The sable's divine sense entered the minds of Qi Shi'an and his group, and then it immediately transformed into a wisp of purple light and fled.

A similar riot occurred a few days ago, killing countless geniuses. Even it barely escaped. The divine tide erupted, something they couldn't withstand.

At the horizon, the treasures combined, their divine sound like thunder, their radiant light blazing, completely engulfing the world. Nothing could stop them, and countless creatures fled in all directions, covering the sky.

"So many...so many treasures, all mine!"

Shi Hao's eyes widened. So many rare treasures had appeared, all of which were refined from the strongest remnant species' bones and fur, such as the Golden Crow Divine Wings and the Flood Dragon Horns... all of them were supreme treasures.

"Little one, let's run first. We can't resist this level of divine tide."

Qi Shi'an could clearly sense that this divine tide was incredibly powerful, and its murderous aura was terrifying, making him feel somewhat terrified.

As the rumbling sound came, the divine tide rapidly approached, and Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao could only flee the place with some resentment.

"puff!"

Suddenly, as a giant child, several meters tall, was running, it was slashed by a pure white ivory artifact from behind. Blood splattered everywhere, the enormous head rolled off, and the body fell to the ground.

"what!"

Not far away, a group of geniuses screamed in agony. With a flap of a golden crow's wings, flames surged and rolled in, turning dozens of people into fire figures in an instant, and finally leaving nothing but ashes.

Such horrific scenes were commonplace amidst the surging divine tide and the impact of magical artifacts. This place had become a killing field, with blood flowing like rivers, and many geniuses perishing here with resentment.

Two hours later, the brilliant glow on the horizon finally faded, the divine tide receded, and the treasure disappeared.

The ruins reeked of blood, with corpses strewn everywhere and blood staining the rubble red. In this great calamity of the divine tide, at least ten thousand lives were wiped out, making it a veritable meat grinder.

In the dim ruins, occasionally a magical artifact would rise up, emitting dazzling light. However, the people no longer coveted it; they only felt a chill run through their bodies.

The treasures here are too terrifying. Once they gather, they will form a divine tide that they, a group of people at the Cave Heaven Realm, cannot stop.

"The divine weapons left behind by ancient powerhouses are indeed terrifying!"

Many people were considering giving up. Although the treasures were good, they were not as important as their lives, and those things were hard to obtain.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao had dirty faces; they had just narrowly escaped a deadly attack.

The two of them felt that the aura emanating from this divine tide was even stronger than that of those sealers, clearly exceeding the Cave Heaven Realm by a great margin.

"Let's go, let's continue our treasure hunt!"

Qi Shi'an dusted himself off and wanted to continue exploring.

Although they escaped with great difficulty, as the old saying goes: since they've come all this way, it would be a waste not to take something with them.

"But we need to be careful this time."

"Many powerful Noble Phantasms are lying dormant. Once they reunite, they will inevitably cause even greater carnage."

Shi Hao spoke solemnly and carefully.

In the days that followed, Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao led the way, cautiously venturing into the deepest part of the ruins.

During this treasure hunt, several divine tides occurred, and they gradually figured out the pattern. After each divine tide, there would inevitably be a period of calm lasting several days.

Moreover, the deeper they go, the lower the probability of a divine tide erupting. Most divine tides are formed on the outside, while the hidden treasures deep inside will not easily erupt.

Along the way, they also saw some powerful individuals like themselves lurking among the mountains, searching for treasures. Clearly, many people had figured out the situation of the Divine Tide.

However, none of the people who made it this far were weak; each of them possessed terrifying strength and extraordinary abilities.

"Huh, there are so many Sealers over there!"

Shi Hao was surprised to find that the sealers were gathered together, and a valley in the distance was filled with glowing light, indicating that a treasure was hidden there, and they were all waiting for the treasure to be revealed.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao exchanged a glance and then rushed over without using any means to conceal their presence, proceeding in a very conspicuous manner.

This valley has no vegetation; like other places, it is a barren land, completely bare and extremely desolate.

Qi Shi'an looked closely and recognized it as a pure white bone tower. The bone tower floated in the crack, emitting colorful light and auspicious vapors, which was extraordinary.

Although this tower is extraordinary, it requires a treasure to activate it. For Qi Shi'an, his greatest trump card is the Myriad Dao Tree, and he also needs countless treasures to nourish it.

After some thought, he gave up ownership of the Bone Tower, thinking to himself, "Once this Bone Tower recovers some of its divine power, I'll have to leave anyway. It's not worth it."

Qi Shi'an has already invested a great deal of rare and precious materials in nurturing just one Myriad Dao Tree. If he were to add another Bone Tower, the resources he would consume would be even greater, which would be too uneconomical.

Seeing that this was a rare treasure, Shi Hao was afraid that it would escape, so he took out the Suanni Treasure Mirror and shone it forward. Then he revealed the golden bone scissors, wanting to imprison this sacred bone tower.

Suddenly, divine light erupted in the valley, with thousands of rays of holy light dancing and engulfing it, creating an extremely mysterious scene.

Not far away, on a mountain peak, there was a chariot, on which sat a white tiger, with two human geniuses feeding it fresh meat beside it.

The carriage was not pulled by strange beasts, but carried by four powerful men, with an old man standing in front of it to keep watch.

"Huh? A supreme treasure has appeared? Quick, go there! Whoever obtains this treasure, kill them! This treasure can only belong to me!"

The white tiger leaped up, transmitting its thoughts through divine sense, a cold and sharp light flashing deep within its eyes.

boom!

The chariot suddenly glowed; it was a powerful magic weapon. The radiant light enveloped the group, and they flew rapidly towards the valley.

As soon as they arrived, they launched an attack, showering down endless runes that nearly engulfed the area. The valley walls collapsed, and rocks flew through the air.

Qi Shi'an frowned, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He wanted to see which fool dared to attack them.

"It's you!"

Qi Shi'an and the white tiger shouted together, the white tiger letting out a tiger's roar, because it disdained to use human language.

Qi Shi'an's eyes shone brightly, his gaze filled with a strong sense of aggression, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

The newcomers were none other than the group from Xiling Beast Mountain who had caused trouble in Duankong City that day. He was just worried about not being able to find that white tiger, but unexpectedly, it came to him without any effort!

"Without the protection of the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, you can't escape this time. Kill him quickly!"

Baihu quickly gave the order. He had sensed that this child was extraordinary in Duankong City that day and that he would definitely become a great enemy.

"Hahaha, how can we not eat the ingredients that have been delivered to our door?" Qi Shi'an laughed wildly.

"roar!"

The white tiger roared, and the chariot immediately glowed. Runes intertwined, forming a curtain of light. A dense array of runes fell down, dust billowed into the sky, and the valley walls cracked.

"Little one, you just focus on collecting the bones in the tower; I'll take care of the rest."

"Today, we're eating tiger meat!"

Qi Shi'an handed the Qiankun Bag to Shi Hao. Holding the treasure spear, Shi Hao's body erupted with a blood-black radiance, crackling with electricity, and his black hair flew wildly. His aura was terrifying and extremely ferocious, as if an ancient true beast had been resurrected.

The old man pointed at Qi Shi'an and roared, "Insolence! How dare you boast that you want to eat my master! Today, I will make sure your blood spills across the valley!"

"Tonight, I'll eat his flesh!"

The white tiger finally spoke in human language, its face indifferent, its pupils flashing with cold light. It bestowed a leather bag upon the old man, who stepped forward, took it, and loosened the rope.

The opening of the animal skin bag suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and an unparalleled suction force seemed to draw everything in the valley into it.

"boom!"

After being disturbed repeatedly, the bone tower finally revived, bursting forth with a wave of white light that shook the surrounding area.

Shi Hao was surprised and quickly retrieved the treasure mirror and bone scissors to protect himself. He then retreated rapidly, moving away from the battlefield.

Qi Shi'an was also caught off guard by the bone tower, but he still managed to retreat to a position close to the white tiger chariot.

"Such a priceless treasure must be obtained at any cost. Join forces and use my Qiankun Bag to retrieve it!"

The white tiger was overjoyed and roared repeatedly. To it, the human was far less precious than the treasure. The most important thing at the moment was the treasure.

"A magic bag! Who doesn't have one?"

Seeing this, Shi Hao also opened the Qiankun Bag that Qi Shi'an had given him, and a powerful suction force was frantically drawing it in.

In the valley, two forces of attraction were clashing, and the ancient remnants behind Shi Hao were also helping him refine the Qiankun Bag.

In an instant, all sorts of boulders flew around in the valley, and the valley shook and trembled continuously, but the bone tower remained completely still, with the hazy mist flowing around it, making it appear even more mysterious and unpredictable.

"boom!"

The Bone Tower, repeatedly disturbed, finally erupted. The tower shook, causing the entire valley to collapse completely. Then it rose up, its ripples like a tsunami, shaking the surrounding mountains.

"Oh no! This treasure has come to life!"

The white tiger's pupils contracted, its face filled with terror, and the chariot quickly rose into the air, almost disappearing into the clouds.

How could Qi Shi'an let them escape so easily? He immediately took to the air and gave chase, condensing a black sun in his palm before unleashing a powerful strike.

The black sun rushed rapidly towards the direction from which Xiling Beast Mountain had retreated. A phantom of an ancient true beast emerged from the black sun, attempting to leave Xiling Beast Mountain behind.

This astonishing devouring force firmly held the chariot of Xiling Beast Mountain in place, reducing its speed to a minimum, like a tortoise crawling.

"You...how dare you!"

The white tiger roared and howled through the mountains and forests, but it dared not linger. This bone tower was too terrifying; staying even a moment longer could endanger its life.

The chariot shone brightly, its rays soaring into the sky, unleashing even greater power as it attempted to retreat quickly.

A glint flashed in Qi Shi'an's eyes as he activated the Myriad Dao Tree within his body. The illusory image of the Primordial True Hou immediately opened its blood-red maw and spat out vines formed from chains of divine order.

In an instant, the vines reached the front of the carriage at Xiling Beast Mountain, wrapping around it with all their might. Then, with a sudden tug, they slowly pulled it back. No matter how much the carriage shook, it could not break free.

"Little one, run!"

Qi Shi'an revealed an evil smile, then threw his treasured spear toward the Bone Tower, intending to use the Bone Tower to keep everyone in Xiling Beast Mountain here.

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao's expression changed drastically. He dared not linger any longer and had no choice but to put away his Qiankun bag and quickly retreat out of the valley.
