Chapter 1441: Chapter 1302: The Last Silent Forest Chapter 1441: Chapter 1302: The Last Silent Forest World Monarch Tree!

Chu Mu’s heart was deeply stirred!

Ning Man’er had said that the power she possessed originated from the World Monarch Tree, hadn’t she?

Could it be that the issue Xiaoxiao was investigating was related to the World Monarch Tree and Ning Man’er?

Master Sun Xuan quickly realized there were others present, and indeed, he had been angered by Xiaoxiao’s rashness and would not have spoken about such matters in front of outsiders otherwise.

Chu Mu had wanted to inquire further, but seeing that Master Sun Xuan had deliberately stopped the conversation, he knew he could not ask anymore.

Although Xiaoxiao appeared to know she had made a mistake, it was evident from her eyes that she still held her original intent and was determined to investigate thoroughly!

“Please have some drinks and rest here; the Xuan objects you requested will take some time,” Master Sun Xuan said politely to the four of them.

“Thank you, Master Sun Xuan,” Chu Mu replied.

Master Sun Xuan smiled faintly, stood up from the lounge chair, and had the maid stay to serve them while he headed towards the Pharmaceutical Courtyard to personally refine the Xuan objects for Chu Mu and the others.

The Xuan objects Chu Mu requested included a Level Nine Xuan Object, whose refining was not a simple task and required extra caution, even for Master Sun Xuan himself.

After Master Sun Xuan left, Chu Mu immediately asked Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, who exactly are the people you’ve been investigating?”

“They are thugs dressed as members of major powers, this matter goes back to a particularly egregious event many years ago,” Xiaoxiao said without any reservations.

“Go on, this matter might have some connection to a girl I know,” Chu Mu stated.

Xiaoxiao nodded and asked, “Do you guys know about the Silent Forest?”

Chu Mu, Chao Lengchuan, Ye Wansheng, and Pang Yue all shook their heads, as they had only just entered the New Moon Land of Struggle Continent and were unfamiliar with many places in Wupan Continent.

Xiaoxiao was momentarily speechless; how could these four people, who were Soul Master Level Experts, not know about the notorious forbidden forest of Wupan Continent?

“We come from the New Moon Land of Struggle Continent and are not very familiar with your Wupan Continent,” Chu Mu explained.

“Oh, so you are from Struggle Continent,” Xiaoxiao realized and then began to explain, “Silent Forest is an extremely famous forbidden forest in our Wupan Continent, much like the City of Wupan is a birthplace of our humans, the Silent Forest is said to be the cradle of many Ancestor Level creatures. This forbidden forest has always somewhat barred humans from entering; on one hand, the Silent Forest houses various mythical creatures, seen by our ancestors as a sacred place not to be desecrated, and on the other hand, the forest indeed harbors many powerful creatures.”

After Xiaoxiao started the explanation, Master Li also jumped in to add, “So it’s about desecrating the forest; your human terms are different from ours.”

“You know about the Silent Forest too?” Chu Mu asked.

“Yeah, once she mentioned it, I knew which forbidden forest she was referring to,” Master Li nodded.

Xiaoxiao had already seen Chu Mu’s talking raccoon yesterday, so she looked at it, curious to see what else it could reveal.

“Your so-called Silent Forest is actually the birthplace of the Wood Ancestor. Tracing our history back, the most ancient and yet incredibly strong Wood-type creature should be the World Monarch Tree. You could say that of the thousands of Wood-type species recorded in human history, at least more than half are either direct or collateral descendants of the World Monarch Tree. The World Monarch Tree holds a historical position in Wood-type lineage comparable to the Ancestor of the Flower type–the Good and Evil Demon Concubine Flower,” Master Li explained.

Ye Wansheng, Chao Lengchuan, and Pang Yue quickly turned their attention to Chu Mu.

Wasn’t the incredibly beautiful woman that Chu Mu took in known as the Queen of Good and Evil?

Despite knowing this, they had never imagined that the Queen of Good and Evil was actually the Ancestor of the Flower type. No wonder that woman had such terrifying combat power even before reaching the Tenth Rank!

Chu Mu discovered that all three were staring at him, so he added, “Being an ancestor does not represent the strongest.”

“Yes, being an ancestor does not represent the strongest. They are certainly strong, but through countless ages of evolution, there will inevitably be descendants who surpass the ancestors. It can be said very responsibly that the reason why ancestor-level creatures are almost extinct today is largely because they are no longer suited to survive in this ‘World.'” Master Li said.

“Take the World Monarch Tree for instance, firstly, it has a serious flaw, that is, its combat power is almost zero.”

“Combat power zero? Really? Shouldn’t such ancestor-level creatures be able to destroy heavens and eradicate earth?” Ye Wansheng asked with a face full of surprise.

Master Li shook his finger and continued, “The World Monarch Tree has no combat power. It is the tree of the world, possessing the ability to absorb the sunlight, elements, turbid qi, and energy of this realm, and transform them into spiritual, xuan, and immortal qi that other races rely on for survival. It is entirely a tree of dedication.”

“In ancient times, there were not as many races as now, nor was it so chaotic. The World Monarch Tree, like a divine tree, spread its breath over the continent it could cover, nurturing countless creatures.”

“During that era, the World Monarch Tree indeed was divine, and no race dared to desecrate such a dedicated deity. But as more and more races evolved and more and more powerful creatures emerged, if the World Monarch Tree used to nurture 100 races and it then became 1,000, its nurturing power would be reduced to one-tenth of its past capability. One-tenth of the nurturing power naturally could not satisfy those increasingly strong races, leading these races to gradually become less dependent on the World Monarch Tree, eventually branching out into various offshoots, some stronger and some weaker, with the stronger branches not having received nurturing turned to greedily occupy the territory of the World Monarch Tree.”

“Just like that, through greed, slaughtering, and plundering, there were times when almost every tribe, empire, and world dynasty experienced an era nurtured by the World Monarch Tree. Now, the World Monarch Tree is near extinction and is almost unfindable.”

Master Li’s words seemed far-fetched, but Chu Mu seemed to be able to imagine in his mind the gradual decline of the World Monarch Tree from a divine tree, perhaps precisely because of Master Li’s words, even the strongest creatures cannot withstand the changes of the times.

“Perhaps some powerful kings of the races realized that the extinction of the World Monarch Tree was related to their greed, as after all, the World Monarch Tree is truly a god of dedication. Feeling guilty, kings of the various great races set the Silent Forest, where the first World Monarch Tree was born, as a sacred land where no race, including humans, may easily desecrate, standing like a monument there, and they admonished and restricted their descendants from disturbing the last tree god.”

“After becoming strong, all creatures possess intelligence; humans are the highest manifestation of intelligent creatures, but this does not mean only humans possess intelligence and civilization. It’s possible that the highest kings of the great races proposed this compliance.”

“However, even agreements can’t withstand the test of time. In this era, many rising major races have already forgotten this ancestral instruction of their forebears. Take your human race for example. I’m sure not many of the supreme human kings now really care about this agreement,” Master Li said with a hint of sarcasm.

After finishing, Master Li’s gaze turned towards Xiaoxiao and he said, “Now you can tell what happened in the Silent Forest.”

Xiaoxiao was somewhat stupefied.

What Master Li said seemed like an ancient legend, somewhat ethereal.

But if what Master Li said was true, then those who trampled on the Silent Forest were truly historical criminals who had destroyed that last agreement!

Previously, Xiaoxiao had thought those people had only done some morally degenerate deeds, yet she hadn’t realized that the matter had even escalated to violate such an ancient agreement!

“I… I actually don’t know much, I only know that a group of human leaders who didn’t reveal their identities entered the Silent Forest and plundered a large amount of resources…” Xiaoxiao stuttered.

Xiaoxiao was a moderately high-ranking member of the Monster Beast Palace. She was ordered to investigate the clues of the plundering incident in the Silent Forest, and then tracked it to those two individuals last night. Xiaoxiao discovered that these two might be subordinates to a major figure involved in the incident. She merely wanted to follow the trail to uncover the identity of this person, and then leave the rest to her teacher.

“You know quite a lot, considering your positions. It’s not appropriate,”

Suddenly, a voice interrupted, changing the atmosphere there.

“Uncle Sun.” Xiaoxiao looked at Master Sun Xuan, who had returned at some unknown time, momentarily lost for words.

Master Sun Xuan helplessly shook his head and slowly walked back to his original position, casting a curious glance at Master Li, who had just disclosed an ancient secret.

“Now that you all know more or less, let me continue, and at least quench your curiosity to prevent any more mischiefs. Young people, always daring to ask… truly headache-inducing,” Master Sun Xuan massaged his temples.

This matter involved Ning Man’er’s experiences, and of course, Chu Mu needed to know everything. However, it seemed that the matter was tied to many major powers.

“Just like this raccoon said earlier, our highest human kings haven’t restrained their descendants well. Some greedy human leaders stepped into the Silent Forest, using their mighty power to ruthlessly plunder the last Silent Forest… You must not think that the human leaders I mentioned are some territory commanders or boundary leaders, their rank is something that you currently couldn’t possibly match. Otherwise, do you think why Divine Sect didn’t dare to sanction this matter?”

“These few leaders are very powerful, almost like figures who could cover the heavens with one hand in the two continents of the world. Even if Divine Sect guessed who these culprits were, to avoid triggering too great a bloody turmoil in the human domain… it can be said, this is the only time in a hundred years that Divine Sect maintained silence.”
