Chapter 1494: Refusing the Tree Spirit

The celestial darkdevil tree had been growing for almost one million years. That was an extremely long time. One could say that it had lived through several ancient ages. After growing for such a long period of time, its strength had reached an unimaginable level. And after years of growth, it had reached its ceiling in growth. Only by breaking through the ceiling would it be able to obtain an even longer lifespan. After all, trees were different from humans.

For humans, one only needed to reach the Rebirth Realm to be able to generate an unending amount of God Realm energy and preserve their youth for eternity. Thus, a human God would generally only die upon being killed.

Although the celestial darkdevil tree had reached the God Realm as well, plants couldn\'t escape death the way humans could. After living for a million years, a plant would start slowly withering away. The only exceptions were the top-tier divine trees that probably could keep living for eternity.

Xiang Shaoyun and the others finally understood what the tree required. The tree wanted more primal chaos energy to help it in its breakthrough. Only then could it upgrade itself into a top-tier divine tree and gain an endless lifespan.

If it only required a small amount of primal chaos energy, Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu would be able to provide it through searching the outside domain. But the tree required a large amount of primal chaos energy. Moreover, it needed primal chaos energy of high purity—something even harder to obtain.

If the tree could obtain an unending supply of primal chaos energy from Xiang Shaoyun, it would be able to reap a handsome harvest and probably break through into a new realm.

However, the tree had assumed too much. Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn\'t stay in the Darkdevil Sect for an extended period of time for its sake. He still had many things he needed to do.

Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu naturally hoped that Xiang Shaoyun could stay. Firstly, it would be good for Devil Concubine. Secondly, it would benefit the celestial darkdevil tree. Thirdly, the Darkdevil Sect would also profit from his presence. Thus, they started promising to nurture Xiang Shaoyun into the next Darkdevil Sect\'s master.

Xiang Shaoyun refused their offer without hesitating. "I won\'t be able to stay here for an extended period of time."

He had a lot of unfinished business. How could he stay in the sect for long? Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu knew that they were making things hard for Xiang Shaoyun with their request. Xiang Shaoyun had a lord guardian behind him, and that lord guardian naturally wouldn\'t allow him to stay for long.

At this time, Purple Lightning Marquis said, "If the lord tree can stay by the overlord\'s side instead, you will naturally be able to obtain the primal chaos energy you require."

Purple Lightning Marquis was acting solely for Xiang Shaoyun\'s benefit. The celestial darkdevil tree had reached a terrifying level in its cultivation. Not even Purple Lightning Marquis was its match. If he could persuade the tree to follow Xiang Shaoyun, it would be the same as obtaining another layer of protection for Xiang Shaoyun. Then, not even Gods would be able to harm Xiang Shaoyun.

Mo Xuwu reacted intensely to the proposal, "That\'s impossible! Lord tree is our sect\'s guardian, the foundation of our sect. Don\'t even dream about taking advantage of lord tree!"

If the celestial darkdevil tree was to leave with Xiang Shaoyun, the Darkdevil Sect\'s foundation would waver. The young of their sect would grow slower and no longer compare with the young of the other major organizations.

Mo Yue said, "That\'s right. Lord tree can\'t leave. We will think of a way to help you in your breakthrough."

"That\'s only a suggestion. You are free to make your choice," said Purple Lightning Marquis with a smile.

Surprisingly, the tree spirit replied, "That\'s a good idea. Ok, this old man will follow the young king among Saints."

Even the celestial darkdevil tree feared death. Now that it found a chance to shatter its shackles and reach a new height, it was naturally happy to cling on to hope.

Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu became anxious. They had never imagined that the tree would actually decide to follow Xiang Shaoyun so unhesitatingly.

"Lord tree, we will do our best to provide the primal chaos energy you need. You have stayed here for so long. Can you really bear to part with this place?" said Mo Yue earnestly.

Mo Xuwu said, "That\'s right. Please think this through, lord spirit. Your departure might affect your cultivation negatively."

Devil Concubine couldn\'t help but laugh when she saw how nervous her father and great-grandfather were. It was rare to see them lose their bearings.

"My mind is set. Don\'t bother," said the tree spirit firmly.

Primal chaos energy was a type of power that could steal from the heavens, a power it wanted the most. It would not give up on it. With its strength, it could always go look for primal chaos energy at the outside domain itself. However, the outside domain was too dangerous, and there was no guarantee that it would find any. It was too risky, and the tree might die faster as a result. That was why the tree had waited in the sect all this while.

Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu looked saddened. Their dissatisfaction with Purple Lightning Marquis also grew. If it wasn\'t for the fact they were afraid of his strength, they would have probably started fighting him immediately.

Finally, Xiang Shaoyun spoke, "I do not need you to follow me, lord tree."

Everyone was stunned. The celestial darkdevil tree had lived for a million years. It was a terrifying existence that had developed a tree spirit. None of the people present was its match. Obtaining the tree was the same as obtaining an additional layer of protection. Xiang Shaoyun would benefit greatly from obtaining the tree. And yet he had rejected the tree\'s offer?

"Young king among Saints, with my presence, nobody will be able to harm you. I can even help you comprehend more dark techniques," said the tree solemnly.

"Do you think that\'s what I need?" said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile. "If you really need primal chaos energy, I have a solution. Follow Devil Concubine. From today onward, she\'s my wife. She will be following me, and we will be together most of the time. Thus, I\'ll be able to supply you with primal chaos energy at all times. What do you think?"

Everyone was dumbstruck. None of them had expected Xiang Shaoyun to have the tree follow Devil Concubine instead. Both Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu were speechless. They hoped that the tree would agree to the offer. If the tree followed Devil Concubine, her safety would be guaranteed. In the future, she might even surpass them. Thus, the Darkdevil Sect would be the one to benefit.

They couldn\'t help but think, This kid is quite sensible.

Originally, they had thought that Xiang Shaoyun would have an unstable temperament due to reaching his current strength at such a young age. Few in his position could reject such an offer. For Xiang Shaoyun to be able to refuse the temptation and come up with such a suggestion that would benefit all parties, one could only imagine how firm his willpower was.

The tree gave it some thought before answering, "Sure."
