“Don't talk like that. After I rebuild the seal and extract the Earth Mother's Original Liquid tomorrow, everything will no longer be an issue,” Shen Luo said with a smile, appearing quite relaxed.

“With less than thirty percent confidence, aren't you afraid of perishing within the Martial God Altar?” Jiang Shentian, who was beside him, said with some reluctance.

“What, Big Brother Shen, you only have a thirty percent chance?” Wu Man'er exclaimed in surprise.

“Isn't this just courting death?” Man Tianxing also frowned and said.

Yun Xiaonu had been half-listening all this while and only half-understood, but seeing that the Clan Leader and the two Elders had left, she finally dared to speak up, “Die, who's going to die?”

“Xiaonu, don't interrupt,” Man Tianxing pressed her little head.

“You may not know how difficult it has been for me to survive until now, so rest assured, I won't die so easily,” Shen Luo said with a smile.

“Shen Luo, how can you be so composed? Is it really to prevent the Great Tang Dynasty Government from clashing with the Wuzhuang View?” Jiang Shentian asked.

“That's right, after all, both the Great Tang Dynasty Government and the Wuzhuang View hold significant weight within the Human Race and the Immortal Clan. If they become hostile to each other, even to the point of waging war, the impact on the Three Realms will definitely not be small,” Shen Luo pondered for a moment then spoke slowly.

“If that's the case, let me accompany you tomorrow,” Jiang Shentian said after a slight hesitation.

Unexpectedly, Shen Luo shook his head and said, “No need, I alone am sufficient.”

“Why?” Jiang Shentian, who had been full of confidence, said, feeling deeply dismayed.

“Why bring so many people for a task that involves risking one's life?” Shen Luo raised his eyebrows and said.

“It's not that I fear you can't do it alone, and besides, I have some insights into Formation, which may also be of great assistance to you,” Jiang Shentian said with crossed arms.

“No need,” Shen Luo still refused.

Jiang Shentian felt a rush of frustration so intense it was almost like old blood stagnating in his chest.

“If I fail, I hope you can hurry back to the Wuzhuang View and prevent the Great Tang Dynasty Government and the Wuzhuang View from clashing,” Shen Luo suddenly said at that moment.

Hearing this, Jiang Shentian was slightly stunned, fell silent for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

“Alright, there's important business to be done tomorrow; let me have a good rest tonight,” Shen Luo said with an easy smile.

“Big Brother Shen, Elder Jiang, I'll take you to the Divine Wood House to rest,” Wu Man'er hurriedly said.

The group walked down along the Divine Tree's vines. Xiaonu was overtaken by sleepiness and was carried on Man Tianxing's back, slowly falling asleep.

Above the skydome, the stars brightened, and the night had completely fallen.

On the Divine Tree's vines, lights of green glowed faintly like lanterns guiding the way, illuminating the entire tree.

Shen Luo, feeling the rich spiritual energy of the plants and trees around him, was filled with emotion.

How wonderful it would be if the landscape of the Human World could remain peaceful forever.

A night without words.

The next day, the sun slowly rose from the horizon.

Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian, under the guidance of Wu Man'er, had already arrived beneath the Divine Tree.

Although both had been prepared in their hearts, standing truly under the tree they were still astonished by the colossal size of the Divine Tree, their jaws dropping in awe.

It was less like they were standing under a tree and more like they were standing under a forest.

The trunk of the Divine Tree was so thick that, within the scope of their vision, they could not see the ends to the left or right. The tree roots branching out from the bottom protruded from the ground, each one nearly a hundred feet thick.

More than ten incredibly thick roots arched up from the ground, supporting the massive body of the tree above. Each root had numerous hanging roots falling down like the strings of a vertical harp, dense yet orderly.

Underneath the arched roots stood a circular blue stone building, completely enveloped by the hanging roots of the Divine Tree, with strands of flowing green light shining on it.

Shen Luo followed Wu Man'er into the building and saw that Wu Kuihu and Yun Zhongting were already waiting inside, while Yun Zhongyue and another seven or eight elders, also dressed in Divine Wood Clan's attire, were all sitting cross-legged in the center of a circular Great Formation in the hall.

There were both men and women among them, and without exception, they all had long snow-white hair.

Last night on the way to the Divine Wood House, Wu Man'er had mentioned that in order to guard the Martial God Altar, the elders of the clan consumed a great amount of essence blood in addition to mana.

Over time, though their lifespans remained lengthy, their hair had all turned white.

Shen Luo's gaze swept over them, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. He felt that the people sitting before him did not seem like living beings, but more like plants, like trees.

The aura of each person seemed to be concealed, indistinguishable when examined individually, yet strangely harmonious when their auras merged together, as if they had become one with the Divine Tree.

Shen Luo then looked at the Formation beneath them and noticed its overall ring shape. At each sectioned distance, there was a disc-shaped base, carved with layers of intricate patterns.

Including Yun Zhongyue, all eight occupied one of the disc seats. One seat remained vacant, facing the main building, which presumably belonged to the Great Elder, Yun Zhongting.

After Shen Luo and the others exchanged greetings, Yun Zhongting was the first to speak, “There's still time to reconsider.”

“Thank you for your kindness, Elder, but I have already made up my mind,” Shen Luo said with a smile.

“Since that is the case, I won't waste words. First, let me tell you about the layout beneath the Martial God Altar,” Yun Zhongting nodded and said.

“Please do,” Shen Luo replied, cupping his fist.

“The root system of the Divine Tree is extremely lush. Still, there are only eighteen main roots. Underground, the arrangement is roughly the same as what you see outside. Aside from having many more interlaced aerial roots, there aren't many differences…” Yun Zhongting slowly explained.

As it turns out, the building above ground was just the final Array pivot position of the Martial God Altar. The area of the three levels below was many times larger than the surface, with each layer being larger than the one above.

The underground first level spanned a distance of three hundred and sixty-five feet around. Nearly all eighteen main roots were distributed along the edge of the first level, while the passageway leading to the second level was in the central position.

The Array to cleanse the Demonic Qi was also located between these two areas.

“The place we can send you to is in the central area of the first level. This is also the area where the Demonic Qi is most concentrated. As for the Earth Mother's Original Liquid you are looking for, it's near one of the eighteen roots, specifically the one towards the northeast direction,” Yun Zhongting said.

“I have always heard Man'er talk about the Earth Mother's Original Liquid. I know it's a natural Spirit Liquid, but I don't know what exactly it is or what properties it has?” Shen Luo asked.

“That location towards the northeast is originally where the spiritual energy of the Divine Tree was most condensed. Over time, the Earth's essence gradually gathered into a spring from the soil below and ultimately formed a Spring Eye. The Earth Mother's Original Liquid you're looking for is the spring water from there. This water doesn't have any special characteristics; it looks no different from mountain stream water, but once touched by hand, one can feel the rich vitality contained within,” Yun Zhongting added.

Having heard this, Shen Luo committed it to memory.
