Chapter 873 Opening the Sacred Land
"That is, no matter who made the Bronze Tree take form, we must give him something."
Chen Yang's eyebrows rose. If he heard correctly, Senior Liu Hei said, no matter who?
That is to say, if he hadn't snatched the Bronze Tree from Victor at that time.
Then the matter of the Bronze Tree taking form might have been with Saint Moon Divine Venerable!
But if Chen Yang remembered correctly, it was Saint Moon Divine Venerable who killed the old immortal.
When Chen Yang asked this question, Liu Ran's face showed a bitter smile.
"If you ask me, I don't know! That's what that old guy told me with his own mouth before he died."
"I guess it might be related to the origin of the Bronze Tree... Chen Shu?"
"After I give you the item tomorrow, I can finally rest assured."
"By the way, are you really not going to reconsider letting those three spirit beasts break through to the peak Grandmaster in the snow forest?"
Facing Senior Liu Hei's repeated inquiries, Chen Yang finally shook his head.
The three spirit beasts were all brought out by Chen Yang personally from the southwest, and their bloodline powers had already been unlocked.
Chen Yang did not want this matter to be exposed.
He guessed that perhaps only he and Chen Shu knew the method to break the bloodline seal.
Breaking the bloodline seal…
Looking at Senior Liu Hei's departing back, many questions appeared in Chen Yang's mind.
If Chen Shu had any special abilities?
Besides being able to absorb the essence blood of others, he could even read other people's memories. Although this reading might not always be successful and was not comprehensive, he could always read very important things.
More importantly, the power within Chen Shu was outrageously abundant.
According to Chen Yang's calculations, the essence blood stored within Chen Shu was definitely not the amount Victor could have collected in a short period of time.
Chen Shu's main body, the Bronze Tree, had definitely started collecting the essence blood of martial artists a very, very long time ago.
And these martial artists were all martial artists who had bloodline seals within them.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Yang shook his head.
He was going to get the items left by the old immortal tomorrow, and perhaps he could find some answers there.
The next morning, Chen Yang and Old Man Fan were woken up by the noise outside.
Chen Yang's mental power could sense a group of spirit beasts outside, but none of them were very powerful.
As soon as Old Man Fan opened the door, he saw food placed at the doorstep.
Of course, these spirit beasts, not being very powerful, had low intelligence. When they saw people coming out of the house, they immediately scattered.
"These little fellows are quite interesting!"
Old Man Fan looked at the corn in his hand and didn't think much of it. He turned and went to the stove.
Chen Yang had intended to eat something before looking for Senior Liu Hei, but unexpectedly, as soon as he washed his face, Liu Hei personally came to find him.
Liu Hei led Chen Yang away from the wooden hut and towards the towering tree in the very center of the snow forest.
Before they even arrived, Chen Yang could sense several powerful auras surrounding the towering tree.
All of them were spirit beasts at the peak Grandmaster level!
A total of ten of them!
When Chen Yang arrived, he was shocked to find that besides Senior Liu Hei, there was someone he knew.
Huang Xiu!
Among the ten peak Grandmaster spirit beasts, besides Senior Liu Hei, only three had taken human form. The remaining five, like Huang Xiu, had not transformed into human form.
"Junior Chen Yang greets all seniors."
Chen Yang did not show much arrogance.
The combined age of these peak Grandmaster spirit beasts was at least several thousand years.
It was important to note that spirit beasts inherently cultivated slowly, let alone reaching the peak Grandmaster level.
From his conversation with Senior Liu Hei yesterday, Chen Yang roughly guessed that Senior Liu Hei had already achieved the peak Grandmaster level over a hundred years ago, and before that, who knows how many years he had weathered.
And his age was considered young in the snow forest!
After introducing himself, Chen Yang noticed that among the ten spirit beasts, only Senior Liu Hei and an old woman looked at him with kind eyes. The rest, except for Huang Xiu, were all indifferent.
A gruff voice sounded next to Chen Yang: "Huang Xiu, is this the brat who snatched your demon core? Do you want your Uncle Bear to get revenge for you?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Xiu almost shattered his teeth: "Scram!"
Huang Xiu had been outside all night repairing his formations and stabilizing his injuries, and had only just returned to the snow forest.
He hadn't interacted with these fellows. How did they know that Chen Yang had taken his demon core?
Thinking about it, Huang Xiu's gaze turned towards Liu Hei.
Liu Hei pretended not to see Huang Xiu's murderous gaze and pouted at the giant bear who had spoken earlier: "What? Since when did you and Huang Xiu become so close?"
The giant bear gave a human-like smile: "Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Huang Xiu and I live so close, it's only right to care when something like this happens. Besides, this young man doesn't look that strong!"
As the giant bear spoke, he cast a provocative glance at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang could only chuckle. Perhaps it was because this giant bear looked too human, but Chen Yang felt no discomfort upon seeing it. In fact, it even looked a bit cute.
"Alright, since Huang Xiu hasn't said anything, you shouldn't be provoking him. Chen Yang is here in the snow forest at the invitation of Old Liu and me. To put it simply, he is our guest in the snow forest."
After the old woman finished speaking, she cleared her throat and then continued to announce loudly: "Open the sacred land! Welcome the guest!"
As the words fell, the ten peak Grandmaster spirit beasts under the towering tree all changed their expressions, showing solemn looks.
Even Huang Xiu was like that.
These ten peak Grandmaster spirit beasts each sent a stream of internal energy towards the towering tree.
Ordinary trees, even if subjected to one of these internal energies, would be shattered into powder.
But the towering tree before Chen Yang, facing the ten streams of peak Grandmaster internal energy, not only did not shatter but absorbed all of them.
Before Chen Yang could react, a radiant light flashed. The towering tree, which was originally covered in snow, not only melted the snow but its emerald green leaves also turned golden.
As the golden leaves fell, Chen Yang immediately felt a stir beneath the fallen leaves.
Liu Hei made a gesture of invitation and said calmly: "Please."
Chen Yang did not hesitate and plunged headfirst into the area of the golden fallen leaves.
The next second, Chen Yang's vision flickered, and the spiritual energy around him fluctuated noticeably.
All of this happened in an instant. By the time Chen Yang reacted, the scenery before his eyes had changed drastically.
