The comet remained silent, only relentlessly unleashing heavenly tribulations.

"This is easy!" Daoist Qingwei laughed loudly. "Our sects only need to allocate some newly recruited outer disciples to easily complete the Heavenly Mandate."

The number of humans in the Southern Continent is in the hundreds of millions. To these immortal sects, a few outer disciples are of no great importance. Only the inner disciples and true disciples are the foundation of the sect and the seedlings who are expected to attain immortality and join the ranks of immortals in the future.

"It will take some time to relocate the outer disciples, so why don't you stay at Wuyi Mountain for a few days, Star Lord?" said Ku Yun Daoist of the Lushan Sect, extending an invitation.

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you all." Song Yi bowed and accepted.

Wuyi Mountain, as the tail of the Southern Dragon, is a famous blessed land in the Southern Continent.

Before the Investiture of the Gods, many powerful immortals lived in seclusion here, among whom Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were the most famous. Their Treasure-Dropping Golden Coins were unparalleled in the primordial world, capable of dropping almost anything below the level of a supreme innate treasure.

After settling in, Song Yi spent his days discussing philosophy, drinking tea, and playing chess with the leaders of various sects. In his spare time, he would travel to Wuyi Mountain to watch the sea of ​​clouds and admire the spiritual springs and waterfalls.

Although he was only a seventh-rank star lord with a low divine position, he was still a righteous god of the Heavenly Court, appointed by the two saints.

If it can reach the ears of Heaven through this, the Great Heavenly Venerable might send the righteous gods of the Zhou Tian to descend to the mortal realm to assist.

Therefore, the sect leaders treated him with great enthusiasm.

Song Yi couldn't help but ask, "The Four Celestial Masters of the Heavenly Court are all incredibly powerful, and the White-Browed Daoist is also highly skilled in Taoist arts. Why not invite them to descend to the mortal realm directly?"

Daoist Qingwei sighed, "Although our Xuanmen has many powerful figures, the Demonic Sect is not to be trifled with. The four Demon Lords of the Blood Sea are all no weaker than the Twelve Golden Immortals of Jade Void, and their five Demon Gods are equally powerful. If Master were to descend to the mortal realm, those ancient Demon Gods would probably also emerge from the Blood Sea, which would lead to widespread suffering and would not be a good thing."

Upon hearing this, Song Yi immediately understood.

The four demon lords are direct disciples of the Lord of the Styx, namely Mara, the Lord of Freedom, Brahma, and Shiva.

The five great demons are Indra, the Demon Mother, Uma, Vishnu, and Mahakala.

They are all powerful figures in the demonic path, born from the sea of ​​blood, possessing profound magic and unfathomable strength.

During his stay in Wuyishan for several days, Song Yi did not spend his days idly sitting, sipping tea, and discussing philosophy.

On this day, he declined the entourage of disciples from various sects and ventured alone into the depths of the clouds and mist of Wuyi Mountain.

The Wuyi Mountains are steep and rugged, with the Nine-Bend Stream meandering through them. Thirty-six peaks and ninety-nine rocks are connected, exuding an ancient and primordial atmosphere everywhere.

"Legend has it that there is a naturally enlightened tea tree hidden in Wuyi Mountain. It can be described as a top-grade innate spiritual root and a must-have treasure for time travelers."

Song Yi, draped in the robes of the Star Lord, treads on flowing clouds, traversing among the jagged rocks.

Divine things are naturally obscured.

Since the primordial era, countless powerful beings have emerged from Mount Wuyi, including many at the Taiyi and Daluo levels, yet none have been able to find the Tea Mother Tree of Enlightenment, demonstrating just how deeply this spiritual root is hidden.

Song Yi relied on his "innate bond" for this trip.

Previously, in order to complete the [All or Nothing] bond, he specifically chose [Qualitative Change - Innate Formation].

In addition, the "Seven Treasures Mysterious Yellow Ruyi Pagoda" that he obtained from the previous gold-tier talisman "gift" allowed him to successfully activate the [Innate Bond] without realizing it.

Its effects are quite mysterious; the more innate treasures one unlocks, the stronger one's connection to them becomes.

If this were in the primordial era, countless innate treasures could have been gathered with this divine power.

But now the primordial world has long been shattered and transformed into the three realms of the acquired world. To seek out the unborn innate things is like panning for gold in the sand.

It was precisely because he knew that there were still great treasures hidden deep in the Wuyi Mountains that he made a special trip to try his luck.

Upon reaching an unnamed cliff, Song Yi suddenly stopped.

The vegetation here appears more withered and yellow than elsewhere, and a strange fluctuation lingers in the air, neither like spiritual energy nor demonic energy, but rather like a serendipitous and unpredictable "cause and effect" aura.

"Could it be right here?"

He searched carefully with his divine sense, but still found nothing unusual.

It seems that the number of innate treasures that have been unearthed so far is still insufficient to accurately sense the location of the innate enlightenment tea mother tree.

With a thought, he waved his sleeve, and nine array flags suddenly flew out, hovering in all directions, silently enveloping the area.

This is another set of secondary flags of the Primordial Light Array that I have refined. Although its power is slightly inferior to the one on the Broom Star, the true water of cosmic light contained in the flag has not diminished in the slightest and can still greatly accelerate the flow of time in the array.

Song Yi stepped into the formation and sat cross-legged in the center of the formation. His whole being seemed to gradually merge with this space and time, as if he were nothing.

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the Seven Treasures Profound Yellow Pagoda appeared out of thin air. It then shrank drastically, turning into a point of golden light, and with unparalleled force, it crashed into a certain void.

The space rippled, and as the water rippled, a hidden space was quietly revealed.

With a golden pagoda above his head, Song Yi stepped inside.

After walking a short distance, a towering ancient tree, three zhang tall, came into view.

The bark is old and cracked, like the scales of a dormant dragon, and the branches are strong and vigorous, revealing the vicissitudes of life that have endured countless calamities.

Above the tree canopy, tea leaves swayed without wind, releasing a refreshing fragrance.

What's even more amazing is that each tea leaf is naturally engraved with the traces of the universe!

Some resemble real dragons, swimming among the veins of leaves, lifelike.

Some are entirely crimson and fiery red, with interwoven Dao patterns on their surface, resembling a phoenix reborn from the flames of desire.

Some even possess yin and yang dual colors, with a yin-yang Taiji diagram naturally formed on the leaf surface. The yang of yang embraces yin, and the yin of yin embraces yang, which is extremely profound and makes people feel as if they are about to have an epiphany when they look at it.

"What incredible fortune... truly a top-grade innate spiritual root!"

Song Yi stared intently at the ancient tea tree in front of him. Even though he was mentally prepared, his heart was still in turmoil.

Those tea leaves swaying in the wind are clearly fragments of the laws of heaven and earth, how precious they are!

He counted carefully and found that there were 5,048 tea leaves on the tree, which was exactly the number for one collection.

Despite his excitement, Song Yi was not blinded by greed. He carefully observed the ancient tree for a long time and finally discovered that deep within the trunk and branches of the Innate Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree, there were faint, complex and terrifying innate restrictions flickering.

"I see." Song Yi suddenly realized, "No wonder Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao only dared to take the Treasure Coins back then, but ignored this Enlightenment Tea Tree. It turns out they couldn't break through this innate restriction and couldn't touch it at all."

However, upon closer inspection, Song Yi discovered that not all the leaves on the tea tree were sealed shut.

The restrictions on those mature tea leaves have been lifted, as if they were ripe fruits falling from the vine.

The tender leaves that are still growing are firmly wrapped by the innate restriction, and you can't force them off.

"Since you're ready, then we won't stand on ceremony."

Song Yi unleashed the Seven Treasures Profound Yellow Pagoda, its base radiating golden light, and a suction force arose out of nowhere.

Splash!

More than 1,800 mature Enlightenment Tea leaves rose into the air, transforming into a magnificent dragon, and obediently flew into the tower.

After doing all this, Song Yi lowered his gaze and landed on the soil beneath the tea tree roots.

The soil was actually seven-colored, faintly exuding a rich, earthy essence.
