Chapter 1143: Chapter 1140: Invitation to Marriage Alliance Chapter 1143: Chapter 1140: Invitation to Marriage Alliance After a short while, Wu Man'er opened her eyes full of delight and shouted to everyone:

“It's not wrong. That trace of Demonic Qi belongs to Big Brother Shen, not from the first-level space. The Demonic Qi originally in the space can no longer be felt.”

Seeing this, everyone finally let down their guard a little.

“I didn't think he could actually do it,” Yun Zhongting said, somewhat in disbelief.

“Since that's the case, let's open the seal now and rescue Brother Shen,” Jiang Shentian urged.

“That is indeed what should be done,” Wu Kuihu pondered for a moment and then nodded.

“Don't rush, Big Brother Shen seems to be suffering backlash from the Demonic Qi invading his body, and he is busy repairing the damage and suppressing the Demonic Qi. You all should wait until he has successfully suppressed it before proceeding,” Wu Man'er suddenly spoke up, advising against immediate action.

“That's fine,” Yun Zhongting nodded his head in agreement.

In fact, Wu Man'er had concealed one thing, which was that Shen Luo was not only suppressing the Demonic Qi at this moment but also continuously absorbing the essence of the Divine Tree.

After a long time, the heavy seal finally reopened, and Shen Luo, with his upper body bare, leapt from Underground, emerging on the Ground, and returned to the Stone House.

However, what greeted him was not smiling faces, but a thunderous roar.

As the roar sounded, a burst of Golden Light rose from within the Ring Array, caging Shen Luo in the Central area.

Shen Luo instantly felt a heavy pressure coming from all Four Directions, his body shook violently, and he, already injured, was immediately forced to bend his waist.

“What are you doing?” Shen Luo said with indignation, his neck stiff and looking up to ask.

“Carefully examine,” said Yun Zhongting, without looking at him, in a cold voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Great Formation around him started to operate, and Golden Light began to swirl around Shen Luo.

Shen Luo felt a powerful force sweeping through his body, and although the pressure was substantial, it did not seem intent on harming him.

A moment later, Yun Zhongyue spoke up, “There doesn't seem to be any problem, the condition of the Demonic Qi inside him is not much different from when he entered the Great Formation, and there's no risk of Demonic possession.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhongting waved his hand, and the Great Formation around them began to halt.

The oppressive force on Shen Luo's body also gradually dissipated.

Shen Luo glanced at Yun Zhongting, stood up straight again, and moved his muscles and bones, immediately emitting a series of crackling “pop” sounds.

“Big Brother Shen,” Wu Man'er called out softly, coming forward to meet him.

Seeing this, Shen Luo hurriedly took out a brand new Long Robe and put it on.

“Big Brother Shen, are you alright?” Wu Man'er asked with a blush on her cheeks and stomped her foot.

“I'm fine, I've fulfilled the promises made earlier,” Shen Luo nodded and said.

“Did you get the Earth Mother's Original Liquid?” Jiang Shentian stepped forward and asked.

Shen Luo nodded.

“Smack,” Jiang Shentian slapped him on the shoulder and exclaimed, “Well done!”

“Just to be cautious, about what happened just now, I hope Brother Shen won't take offense,” Wu Kuihu also came forward, apologizing.

Shen Luo had returned alive, his cultivation level had entered the Late Mahayana Stage, and he had obtained the Earth Mother's Essence. His heart was naturally filled with even more joy, and he did not pay too much attention to these developments.

“There's no harm. Elder, may I request to cultivate in the Clan for two days to stabilize my realm?” he waved his hand and said.

“That is perfectly acceptable,” said Wu Kuihu.

“Hold on, if it's not too much trouble, could Friend Shen recount in detail what happened in the Martial God Altar just now?” Yun Zhongting interrupted the two, asking.

He remained concerned about the complex changes of the Demonic Qi within the Martial God Altar earlier.

After a moment's thought, Shen Luo felt there was nothing much to hide except for the details of how he had taken the Earth Mother's Essence, and he immediately nodded in agreement.

Thus, everyone gathered around, listening to him recount the various dangers he had encountered earlier.

“Clan Leader, what do you think?” After hearing the story, Yun Zhongting turned to Wu Kuihu and asked.

“According to Friend Shen,” Wu Kuihu said gravely, “What he encountered was likely not Unreal Demons, but Blood Demons that can transform using blood symbols. With that said, the power of that strand of Chiyou's Demon Soul has probably increased considerably.”

“The two elders, what do you mean by that?” Shen Luo sensed something ominous and asked hastily.

“It means exactly what you heard. The divided soul power of Chiyou's Demon Soul is increasing, which means that the power of its main body is likely increasing as well,” said Yun Zhongting in a deep voice.

“This… it's impossible,” protested Jiang Shentian immediately.

“The seal on Chiyou was clearly reinforced again, done by the great powers from the Heavenly Palace. There can be no mistake.”

However, Shen Luo fell silent upon hearing this.

After waking from Dreamland, he too had briefly believed that the demonic affliction was truly resolved.

However, the experiences of recent days had given him a growing foreboding that the demonic affliction was still present, but the people of the world had generally lost their vigilance against the danger.

Seeing the Divine Tree Clan people today only made him more alert.

“Hmph, although Chiyou's Demon Soul has scattered quite a bit, it still has a close connection with the main body. Changes in the former are influenced by the latter, and for thousands of years, this has never been wrong,” said Yun Zhongting with a cold huff.

“The two elders, I think your concerns are reasonable. No matter what, we cannot afford to lose the Divine Wood Clan's Martial God Altar, and I fear that in the future, your Clan will have to guard it diligently,” sighed Shen Luo.

“Of course.” Hearing these words, Yun Zhongting's expression softened slightly, and he seemed somewhat moved.

Although the Divine Wood Clan guarded the Martial God Altar out of respect for their ancestors' instructions and to honor their promises, hearing understanding and praise from an outsider still stirred feelings within them.

“Great Elder, regarding the matter of fully opening the Divine Wood Forest and recruiting disciples from outside tribes…” Wu Kuihu frowned and inquired.

“Clan Leader, I know you have long planned this, but historically, our Divine Wood Clan has always been self-reliant… If we bring in outsiders, our clan's children may inevitably be corrupted by bad influences from the outside world,” said Yun Zhongting hesitantly.

“Great Elder, while there may be places filled with miasma in the outside world, there are also lands blessed with outstanding individuals. Isn't Friend Shen right here the best example? If our Divine Wood Clan can attract more young talents like Friend Shen, why would we worry about failing to guard the Martial God Altar? Why would we worry about the decline of our clan's heritage?” Wu Kuihu persuaded.

Yun Zhongting fell silent for a moment, then with an odd look in his eyes, he turned to Shen Luo and asked:

“If that's the case, Shen Luo, would you be interested in staying with our Divine Wood Clan and marrying Man'er?”

“That would not be proper, Junior already has a marriage contract and cannot wrong Miss Man'er,” Shen Luo replied, his expression changing dramatically with haste.

“Great Elder, what are you saying,” Man'er also blushed immediately at his words.

Seeing this, everyone showed a hint of amusement, and the atmosphere inside the Stone House became somewhat more relaxed.
