"Master, something terrible has happened."

"Hmm? What terrible thing has happened? Tell me quickly."

"Master, several of the top ten young masters in our realm went to the borderland together to kill that desolate man. Who would have thought that they were all no match for him and were killed one by one, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army."

Upon hearing this, both Yinlun and Chiming were greatly shocked.

Is that being named "Wilderness" in the Nine Heavens really that powerful?

This is no joke. The Ten Masters, also known as the Ten Heavenly Kings, are the ten most powerful beings of the younger generation, and are selected every twenty years.

With the imperial clan absent, these ten beings represent the highest fighting strength and the most dazzling existence of the younger generation.

Now, several of the top ten masters have been killed by Huang in succession, which is definitely a major event that will shake the alien world.

In the eyes of Yinlun and Chiming, the Nine Heavens was a place of defeat and ruin. They never expected that such a place would produce such a person.

"What did the supreme predecessors of my realm say?" Chi Ming asked.

"It is said that the Supreme Senior wants to try to get one or two of the top ten experts to help. If they set off for the borderlands, they might be able to kill that Huang."

"The first and second place? If I'm not mistaken, the number one young king of this generation is He Ziming of the He family. It is said that he has just broken through and his realm is unstable, so he should not make a move. As for the second place, he is currently cultivating in seclusion on Immortal Mountain, so he is also unlikely to make a move."

"It's even more impossible for the young members of the imperial family. No one can persuade them to come down the mountain unless the time comes," Silver Wheel said, frowning.

"Indeed, if we were to use the Ten Heavenly Kings from the previous generation, whose realms are far superior to that of Huang, it would be an unfair victory."

"It seems unlikely that relying on a powerful figure of the same generation to end the wilderness is going to be successful." Chi Ming nodded.

"Our realm is full of talented people. Killing a Desolate One is really not difficult. It's just that powerful figures are always busy with other matters."

"It doesn't matter if we let him be arrogant for a while. Once our immortal kings pass through the Imperial Pass, all the wilderness, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths will have to obediently submit to our feet."

The two engaged in a heated discussion, where they belittled Huang, and Shi Yi occasionally chimed in.

"Haha, Brother Pu is right. That Huang is just a little brother. He's nothing special."

The three of them then left the Qilong Mountains.

Several days later, they arrived at the ancestral land of the Crimson Flame Clan. Upon learning of Shi Yi and Yin Lun's arrival, the Crimson Flame Clan warmly welcomed them.

As expected, Shi Yi was summoned by the Crimson Flame Immortal, who was dressed in crimson armor and whose body was engulfed in immortal flames.

Just as Shi Yi had predicted, this immortal also gave him a great opportunity, betting on his future achievements and befriending him in advance.

Shi Yi accepted all such benefits without hesitation.

After spending several days with the Crimson Flame Clan, the three of them traveled together across this ancient land.

Silver Wheel and Crimson Nether became Shi Yi's guides, leading him to some famous places of opportunity, including stone walls inscribed with the names of geniuses, mountain peaks left behind by immortals, and relics left by immortal kings.

Meanwhile, news of what was happening in the borderlands also reached their ears from time to time.

"What? Huang massacred a large number of the creatures in my realm?"

"What? Huang stole what the Immortal King of our realm had his eye on? Are you kidding me?"

"Impossible, right? Huang, a being who isn't even at the first level of the Escape Realm, can stir up such a huge storm all by himself?"

"Huang trespassed into that forbidden forest? And killed two groups of creatures in our realm? These guys are too stupid, they were completely fooled by him."

……

Hearing the news that Huang was causing trouble on the frontier and becoming more courageous despite setbacks, Yinlun and Chiming gritted their teeth in hatred and wanted to go to the frontier to personally punish Huang.

Shi Yi was in a good mood, sometimes contemplating the Dao, sometimes admiring the great rivers and mountains, quite leisurely.

"Brother Pu, how about the three of us set off for the frontier and take the head of the Wilderness?"

"If we succeed, we will surely become famous throughout the world," Chi Ming proposed.

As far as he knew, some of his contemporaries had already set out, all wanting to eliminate that troublesome Huang and add a brilliant chapter to their resumes.

Many powerful clans have offered incredibly generous bounties for Huang's head, as young men from their clans have died at his hands.

Shi Yi shook his head and replied, "There's no need for that. He won't be able to cause trouble for long. We should just enjoy ourselves."

"Ok."

Seeing that he said that, Chi Ming had no choice but to give up.

"I want to go for a walk over there."

Shi Yi pointed into the distance and spoke.

Following the direction Shi Yi pointed, Chi Ming and Yin Lun saw a magnificent and imposing World Tree.

"The World Tree?"

"Sure, but I don't know if they'll allow us to be near them."

The World Tree of the otherworld has long been regarded as the central hub of the realm's operation, and it is not to be destroyed by anyone; it is guarded by immortals.

It is said that during the ancient war between immortals, the alien realm secretly approached the other world tree, causing that world tree to suffer a catastrophic disaster.

After the World Tree encountered problems, the Primal Ancient Realm fell into a complete disadvantage and ultimately perished.

"Let's give it a try. If they won't let us get close, then forget it," Shi Yi said.

The two nodded.

Just as the three were about to set off for the area where the World Tree was rooted, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked their path.

"Brother Liu Mie?" Silver Wheel greeted him.

The newcomer was incredibly tall and robust, with six arms and his entire body covered in ferocious armor. He stood there like a mountain, giving off an indescribable sense of oppression.

He was Shi Yi's defeated opponent, Liu Chi's elder brother, and ranked second among the previous generation of the Ten Heavenly Kings.

Upon hearing this, Liu Mie nodded slightly. Then, without even glancing at Chi Ming, he looked directly at Shi Yi and asked softly, "Fellow Daoist, are you Brother Pu Yu of the Pu Mo Clan?"

"It can't be considered part of the Pumo clan; it only has half the true blood of that clan," Shi Yi shook his head.

"I've heard that you, Brother Dao, possess the power to dominate this generation and your strength rivals that of the imperial clans. I am Liu Mie, and I have come here specifically to seek your guidance." Liu Mie was very direct; he had come to test Shi Yi's strength.

Yinlun transmitted his voice to Shi Yi, informing him that Liu Mie was a battle maniac who had defeated almost all the stronger beings of his generation.

"can."

Shi Yi immediately understood and readily agreed.

Afterwards, Silver Wheel and Crimson Netherworld moved away from the two and watched the battle from a distance in the void.

"Brother Pu, please."

The sound of six extinguished.

Shi Yi didn't hold back either, launching a fierce and relentless attack right from the start, using the technique given to him by the Silver Immortal.

Upon seeing this, Liu Mie's eyes lit up with excitement. He waved his six arms, and instantly, the void shattered, and the earth shook.

During their battle, Shi Yi, as before, did not use his full strength. The strength he had shown so far could only attract the attention of the Immortals. If he revealed even a little more, he would attract the attention of the Immortal King. If the Immortal King took notice of him, it would be difficult for Shi Yi to continue to hide.

"boom!"

The two creatures fought fiercely, exchanging over a hundred blows before a victor emerged.

Liu Mie was hit by a punch and staggered backward, his six arms trembling slightly, with blood dripping down from time to time.

Blood was also seeping from the corner of his mouth, and his breathing was erratic.

Although he lost, there was no disappointment in his eyes; on the contrary, he was extremely excited.

"Haha, Brother Pu Yu is indeed powerful. He truly deserves to be called the number one person below the imperial clan in our generation." Liu Mie laughed and praised him.

Then, he invited Shi Yi to visit the Six-Armed Clan.

Shi Yi neither agreed nor refused, only saying that he would definitely go when he had time.

It wasn't that he didn't want the opportunity, but the ancestor of the Six-Armed Clan was a quasi-immortal king, surpassing the immortals, and Shi Yi was afraid that the other party would see through his scheme.

After watching Liu Mie leave, the three continued on their way, heading straight for the area where the World Tree was rooted.

During this process, Shi Yi inquired about the situation of the alien world tree, intentionally or unintentionally, and figured out the layout of the surroundings.

Ultimately, they chose to head in a direction guarded by immortals.

This ancient tree is indeed magnificent and awe-inspiring. Its trunk alone is so thick that its edges are not visible, making one marvel at the grandeur of the World Tree. It is so lush, with countless leaves, supporting one star after another, filled with the chaotic energy that hangs down.

Under such pressure, they even had difficulty taking off, as if there was a no-fly zone.

Just as the three were about to reach and touch the World Tree, a being suddenly appeared and blocked their way.

"You are... Bluescale Immortal?"

This being stood in the chaos, very blurry, only its humanoid shape could be discerned, and its eyes, filled with scrutiny, were fixed on Shi Yi and the other two.

Chapter 385 World Tree

“The little guy from the Silver Clan, the little guy from the Crimson Flame Clan, and… Pu Yu, is that right?” the Blue Scale Immortal murmured, surprisingly recognizing Shi Yi.

"We have met the Blue Scale Immortal!" Shi Yi and the others bowed to the Immortal.

"Hmm, what are you three doing here? Don't you know this place is off-limits?" Blue Scale Immortal asked with a slightly stern tone.

Silver Wheel and Crimson Nether were a little apprehensive; a wrong answer to the Immortal's question could lead to disaster.

Shi Yi remained calm and composed, even when faced with the questioning of the immortals. He replied, "This was my idea. Since birth, I have often gazed at the World Tree, hoping to one day get close to it and witness its magnificence and extraordinary nature. Now that I have made some progress in my cultivation, I want to fulfill this wish."

I was unaware of the rules prohibiting approaching this place; if I have offended you, please forgive me, Senior Lan Lin.”

Seeing that he was neither humble nor arrogant, and had a certain air of authority, Blue Scale Immortal nodded secretly.

"It's not that it's impossible. The reason for this ban is that the World Tree is the most important pillar of our world. It guides all paths and stabilizes the world, so it cannot be lost."

"Do you know how our world felled the World Tree of the Primordial Ancient World back then?" Lan Lin asked.

The three shook their heads. Shi Yi knew nothing at all, while Yin Lun and Chi Ming knew a little bit, but it was vague and uncertain.

"Back then, it was because the beings of that realm were negligent in their protection that our powerful beings seized the opportunity and defeated them in one fell swoop."

The moment the World Tree fell, the impact was unparalleled. Countless beings in the primordial ancient realm shattered their beliefs and wept there. Moreover, the demise of the World Tree accelerated the disintegration of the primordial ancient realm. It was no longer so sturdy and could no longer withstand a battle at the level of an immortal king. In the end, it was shattered and left only the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths as we know them today.

"We must learn from this incident; therefore, protecting the World Tree is of paramount importance," the Bluescale Immortal explained.

Then, he glanced at Shi Yi and said, "The three of you are obviously no threat. You are the future cornerstones of our world, so this kind of precaution is naturally not aimed at you."

"I'll make an exception today and let you get up close to the World Tree."

Upon hearing this, all three showed joy. Yinlun and Chiming understood that their ability to get close to the World Tree was most likely due to Shi Yi's help.

News travels very fast in foreign lands, and within a few days, everyone knew about Pu Yu's performance in the Qilong Mountains.

Blue Scale Immortal was most likely granted an exception because of Shi Yi.

"Thank you, Senior Lanlin."

Shi Yi and the other two quickly expressed their gratitude.

"Alright, come with me. You can only stay in the area I'm in charge of. You should know that the World Tree is vast and boundless, divided into multiple areas, and each area has a different guardian."

"And in that area above the tree trunk, there are other species that live alongside the World Tree, so you mustn't wander off," the Bluescale Immortal warned.

The three nodded and followed Lan Lin's steps. Passing through a thick, chaotic mist, they arrived at an open area. Ahead, a "stone wall" blocked their view. It was so large that it lay there as if it had existed since time immemorial.

Shi Yi knew that this was the trunk of the World Tree, which was so large that it seemed boundless.

The mountain ranges rising in front of the stone wall are the roots of the World Tree, some of which are exposed above the ground, and no one knows how deep their roots are.

The rules of the Great Dao here are so dense that they are almost visible to the naked eye. They float in the void like a vast ocean, making it a sacred place for cultivation.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of the World Tree; it's hard to imagine just how magnificent it truly is.

"You can touch the bark of the World Tree with your own hands and feel its vastness and unfathomable depth, or you can wander in the ocean of laws and experience the mysteries of the Great Dao."

"If we're lucky, we might be able to activate the World Tree and receive an opportunity," Lan Lin said.

The three nodded; it was the first time they had ever been so close to a mature, complete World Tree.

Shi Yi strode towards the rising "peaks," where wisps of chaotic energy flowed, nurturing vibrant life.

He touched the surface of the "mountain" with his palm, closed his eyes slightly, and experienced the grandeur and magnificence of the World Tree.

Shi Yi's vision went dark, but gradually, a bright light appeared. It was the Great Dao Rules, which, under the guidance of the World Tree, became orderly. Its branches seeped into every corner of this great world. Because of its existence, this territory became solid and immortal, able to withstand even a battle between immortal kings.

It often lowers its branches, pouring down the rules of the Great Dao onto a region, like an immortal waterfall. Wherever it is drenched, the land will be blessed with outstanding people and talents, and a prosperous scene will emerge.
