My Master Knows It All

"Brown? The Life Ancient Tree should be green, still brown, it's been polluted by the poisonous energy for too long. Although now, the Life Ancient Tree can only exert power equivalent to the limits of the Immortal Path Domain, it itself is still a branch of the ancient tree. The fact that the poisonous energy can have such a deep effect is truly terrifying."

Cao Zhen raised his hand and placed it on the Life Ancient Tree, feeling its breath, and slowly furrowed his brow.

"The greatest feature of the Life Ancient Tree is its terrifying vitality.

If he transplants it into the Hundred Peaks Sect, especially near those Immortal Fields, then those Immortal Fields wouldn't even need tending and they would become more fertile, the Immortal Herbs would grow more lushly and mature faster.

Moreover, it can heal people's injuries. Especially after reaching the Earth Immortal Realm and True Immortal Realm, many injuries, even if pills are taken, only ensure that no hidden injuries are left. To fully recover from injuries, it typically takes years.

But the Life Ancient Tree can quickly heal people's injuries. This is, in fact, the first ancient tree in the world, a tree that was nurtured by its branch!

If the Life Ancient Tree is really transplanted into the Hundred Peaks Sect, thereafter, any disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect who suffers severe injuries could ensure survival as long as they return to the sect and come under the tree of the Life Ancient Tree.

However, the Life Ancient Tree is severely polluted now. The fact that it doesn't release poison is already quite good; don't expect it to heal injuries.

This Life Ancient Tree can actually recover slowly; after all, it's a branch of the first ancient tree in the world. But to let it recover slowly, who knows how long it would take, at least tens of thousands of years.

To purify these toxins, one needs the Water of Miaosheng Ancient Spring, which is not easy to obtain. However, it can be replaced with other spring water, as well as those soils..."

Cao Zhen pondered over how to heal this tree.

He gently patted the ancient tree and said, "The poisonous energy here is too thick, it's even contaminated the ground. Who knows how long it would take you to recover if you stay here.

How about this, I'll take you to my Great Teaching first; it can help you recover faster."

Interestingly, those strange beasts can speak human language in the Earth Immortal Realm and take human form in the Immortality Regainment Realm.

But those spiritual things, like the Immortal Trees, cannot cultivate unless they're extremely fortunate and turn into demons or immortals. However, some extremely special beings like the Life Ancient Tree also possess spiritual intelligence.

Obviously, the Life Ancient Tree understood Cao Zhen's words, as one of its branches gently twitched, as if agreeing with Cao Zhen.

Then, Cao Zhen started digging up the soil in front of him.

As the black cocoons fell to the ground, the poisonous energy in this space started to emerge slowly. Since there was no more generation of poisonous energy, outside the sect, the poisonous insects let out angry roars.

Subsequently, these poisonous insects went berserk, some biting at each other, while others frantically darted in all directions.

On the mountain, Demonic Lord Qing Shi looked at the chaotic swarm of poisonous insects with a gloomy face. Before her came a winged poison scorpion flying towards her—one of the five strongest poison scorpions.

"Damn it!"

Demonic Lord Qing Shi cursed under her breath, then abruptly turned and sprinted away. A single poison scorpion was not something she worried about, but the sheer number of insects here was a problem.

If she were discovered, these crazy poisonous insects would surely attack her madly, and she could only escape first.

Cao Zhen put considerable effort into finally digging out the Life Ancient Tree and placing it into a Qiankun Bag.

Subsequently, he also placed the remaining ninety-nine black cocoons into another Qiankun Bag, then turned to look at the entrance.

He wondered how things were outside.

He walked to the entrance and opened the Stone Door from inside.

Immediately, a strong stench wafted in, and before him, the valley that had been crowded with poisonous insects was now full of their corpses. The remaining live insects were still frantically biting at each other or gnawing on the corpses.

Whether because they heard the Stone Door opening or sensed the scent of a human, these poisonous insects quickly turned and began surrounding him.

Though there were fewer poisonous insects here than before, their number was still terrifying, surrounding him in an instant.

There were so many poisonous insects, even though he was currently a being of the Immortal Path Domain, he couldn't possibly handle so many on his own.

As for flying?

Even if he was fast, he needed space to maneuver. Behind him was the ruin and before him were the poisonous insects; to break through, he would have to charge through this swarm of insects.

How to charge through?

Suddenly, he remembered the method Zang Di Demon had used to enter this place. Zang Di Demon had used the corpses of poisonous insects along the way to attract other poisonous insects.

Though he didn't have the corpses, he did have the cocoons!

Previously, these poisonous insects gathered outside to suck the poisonous energy from the cocoons.

If he throws the cocoons out?

If the toxins inside the cocoons aren't dead, these poisonous insects would surely go crazy for them. Even though the toxins are dead now, he had no other choice.
