Chapter 1931: Chapter 2028: The Demon Tree Stirs

Within the Seven Seas, the higher-ups of the three sects have begun the relocation of their members, a move secretly initiated by the three leaders, the Sky Tower Sword Master and others. Otherwise, the three sects would not dare to send so many people flooding into that mysterious and dangerous Chaotic Sea Area.

Meanwhile, the ancient magic tree continues its rampage, leaving the once-vital Seven Seas creatures suffering greatly, with countless sea beasts and members of the three sects dead.

The three leaders, including the Sky Tower Sword Master, have been monitoring the movements of the ancient magic tree, watching as it delves deeper into the territory of the three sects, realizing it won’t stop until all life in the Seven Seas is eradicated.

Even though the three of them feel uneasy, as the ancient magic tree grows stronger, they dare not attack it, fearing they might fall against the ancient magic tree.

As for the search for Qi Liansheng, the three have temporarily set it aside. With Mo Shouhe out of contact and the ancient magic tree absorbing life indiscriminately, there’s no way for the Sky Tower Sword Master and the others to continue the search.

At this moment, the three of them simultaneously see a white light emerging from the Nine Countries, all of them feeling a shock and astonishment.

"Such a dense Pill Formation Rainbow Light, it seems even a Heavenly Tribulation was triggered, likely heralding the emergence of a Peerless Treasure Pill," exclaimed the Black White Taoist Sage, who is also a Pill Refiner, his sharp eyes discerning the source of the white light at a glance.

The Sky Tower Sword Master’s brows furrowed as she said, "At this time, what Peerless Treasure Pill would emerge? And who refined it?"

"Who else could it be? Naturally, it’s that Pill Sovereign Fang." Black White Taoist Sage responded.

"Since it’s his pill, I have some interest," the Sky Tower Sword Master sneered.

The Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor and the Black White Taoist Sage both looked at her, with the Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor saying, "We shouldn’t make extra trouble now. Fang Lin is likely in the Ancient Demon Ridge with the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Even if we wanted to seize it, there’s no opportunity."

"That’s right. The treasure pill is good but not something our three can covet," Black White Taoist Sage also said, implicitly reminding the Sky Tower Sword Master.

The Sky Tower Sword Master wore a disdainful expression, "You two, over the years, have grown more cowardly. Fang Lin now is merely at Heavenly Mandate cultivation, not our match at all. Even if the Great Sage Equal to Heaven is troublesome, could the three of us not handle it together?"

Seeing the Sky Tower Sword Master still had interest in seizing the pills, the Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor and the Black White Taoist Sage were somewhat helpless, their brows furrowing.

But there was no way for the two of them; this woman has been like this for so many years, mercurial and particularly drawn to things she’s told not to do.

"Could it be you two are scared by Jin Zhulong? But he’s dead, and you still don’t dare to make a move on Fang Lin?" mocked the Sky Tower Sword Master.

The Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor said calmly, "It’s not about fear. It’s just that the situation is unclear, and recklessly proceeding might lead to a huge loss."

The Sky Tower Sword Master argued, "Then let’s first figure out the situation, and then act. By then, if we get the treasure pill, wouldn’t it be splendid for us three?" constantly urging the two to join her in going to the lands of the Nine Countries to seize the Peerless Treasure Pill about to emerge.

The Black White Taoist Sage shook his head, "Jin Zhulong may be dead, but don’t forget, someone more fearsome still lives."

The Sky Tower Sword Master, hearing this, changed her expression and refrained from saying more about seizing the Peerless Treasure Pill, but naturally felt discontent. In this age, nearly no one could oppose them; they could act recklessly yet still face so many restrictions, making the Sky Tower Sword Master consistently uneasy.

Moreover, the Black White Taoist Sage’s words reminded the Sky Tower Sword Master of the terrifying individuals backing Fang Lin. Neither the unrivaled Martial Lord Fang Qingye nor the once-unmatched Bai Qingxue were people they could provoke.

Especially Bai Qingxue, the mere thought of her caused the Sky Tower Sword Master to grit her teeth. Back when she was just starting out and not yet one of the Unparalleled Eight Emperors, she had encountered Bai Qingxue.

The Sky Tower Sword Master, then youthful and exuberant, thought that as another woman, she should not be inferior to Bai Qingxue, who was renowned throughout the world. Confidently, she challenged Bai Qingxue.

The result was gruesome; the then naive young girl was nearly unrecognizable after being beaten by Bai Qingxue, her beloved sword even snapped by Bai Qingxue on the spot.

Afterward, the Sky Tower Sword Master realized how foolish she was to challenge Bai Qingxue back then, but it didn’t stop her from holding a grudge all these years, one that persists to this day.

Although it’s called a grudge, the Sky Tower Sword Master herself admitted she was afraid of Bai Qingxue, fearing another encounter with her. The past beating made her shiver each time she recalled it.

Seeing the Sky Tower Sword Master fall silent, the Black White Taoist Sage and Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor sighed in relief, knowing that her obsession with seizing the pills might drag them into the mess.

While they obey Mo Shouhe now, it doesn’t mean they’re willing to provoke Fang Qingye and Bai Qingxue behind Fang Lin. Neither side is something the three of them could contend with, so they could only strive to survive in the cracks.

At this point, the three simultaneously noticed something strange.

They saw the ancient magic tree, heading towards the depths of the three sect territories, suddenly change direction and move elsewhere.

"What’s it trying to do?" The Black White Taoist Sage asked, full of puzzlement.

"Perhaps it fears the three of us, so it doesn’t aim to wipe out the three sects," the Golden Tripod Buddha Emperor speculated. But even as he said this, he found it laughable. The ancient magic tree once wreaked havoc in an era; why would it fear the three of them? In reality, it was they who should fear the ancient magic tree.

"No, it’s moving fast, seemingly with a purpose," said the Sky Tower Sword Master.

"Follow it!" The three immediately followed, wanting to see what the ancient magic tree intended.

····

Deep beneath the ocean, a colossal undersea volcano with nine dark chains extending from it seemed to press down on something within the volcano.

Fang Lin had visited this place before, searching for remnants of the Pill Saint Palace, feeling apprehension and suspicion toward this location but not knowing what secrets the volcano held.

At this moment, the ancient magic tree was drawing closer to this undersea volcano, and the nine dark chains seemed to sense something, resonating and vibrating.
