Chapter 381 - 381 Reunion!
Elsewhere in the Burning Sky Forest, the tree person looked at Xu Shi with eyes that now contained a hint of fiery enthusiasm.
Even though Xu Shi had only made one move just now, the tree person perceived a sensation from that force that was unlike any he had ever felt before.
“Just some minor tricks, nothing worth showing off!”
Xu Shi chuckled lightly, not expecting that his arrival would catch the Burning Sky Tree Clan’s attention, or that the Burning Sky Old Ancestor would even send a member of the Burning Sky Tree at the Eternal Realm Eightfold to assist him.
Although he didn’t need the help of the other party, he still accepted their good intentions based on the principle of never turning down a free offer.
Of course, he was far from using his full strength, as he definitely needed to keep some reservations in this unfamiliar World of Eternity.
“Brother Xu, our clan’s old ancestor would like to invite you!”
Right then, the tree person beside him suddenly spoke up.
Here it comes!
Xu Shi knew that the other party’s excessive enthusiasm must come with strings attached, and he had been waiting for them to make their move.
“Respect can’t compare to obedience, fellow Daoist, please lead the way!”
Xu Shi looked at the tree person beside him and said indifferently.
Then, under the guidance of the tree person, the two proceeded toward the depths of the Burning Sky Forest, the Burning Sky Trees on both sides automatically receding to make a path for them.
Soon, they arrived at a clearing, and at the far end of the clearing stood an incomparably massive Heavenly Connecting Tree, its entire body ablaze with golden flames, rings of light coiling around it.
“Young friend, you’ve finally arrived!”
A tranquil voice rang out, one that could even wear down a person’s will upon hearing it.
Xu Shi’s heart immediately went on alert, unsure if the voice had always been like this or if it was intentional.
If it was intentional, then the fellow before him was up to no good.
“I wonder, Elder, why do you seek my audience? Is there something you need?”
“I’ve observed that your innate attributes are highly compatible with those of my clan. If you’re willing to stay, I can assure you a place in the Peak Realm.”
“By then, mutual accomplishment between us, how delightful that would be!”
“Elder jokes. I couldn’t possibly accept such high praise; I’m just a common individual in the Eternal Realm.”
“Besides, I have companions, so it’s not possible for me to stay here.”
Xu Shi remained neither haughty nor humble, his demeanor exceptionally calm.
“Oh is that so?”
“That is truly a pity!”
“Since the young friend has his own matters to attend to, I won’t keep you any longer!”
“Your clan’s kindness is etched in my memory!”
A gleam flashed in Xu Shi’s eyes before his figure vanished.
“Old Ancestor, are we really not taking action?”
“I feel that if you, Old Ancestor, could keep him here, not only would you break through to the Peak Domain, but even we at the Ninth Level might have a chance at reaching the Peak Domain.”
At that moment, a slightly smaller Burning Sky Tree moved closer to the Burning Sky Old Ancestor.
“Yes, Old Ancestor, are we really not taking action?”
The tree person who had been beside Xu Shi earlier also showed a trace of puzzlement in his eyes.
In their memory, their Old Ancestor was a decisive figure. The person before them had only the Cultivation of Eternal Realm Four Layers; not to mention the Old Ancestor taking action, even if he himself made a move, he should be able to suppress him, right?
“No need to say more, stand down!”
The Divine Burning Tree King did not offer an explanation but instead directly dismissed his attendants.
“Yes!”
The crowd could only leave, resigned yet daring not to question further, carrying their doubts with them.
“Young friend, please wait a moment!”
Elsewhere, after leaving the Burning Sky Forest, Xu Shi quickly extricated himself from that space. But just then, the voice of the Divine Burning Tree King suddenly resounded behind him.
“Senior, to have followed me and left the domain of your Burning Sky Forest, do you plan to make a move?”
Xu Shi turned around with a smile that was not quite a smile and looked at the elderly man clad in green who had appeared behind him.
The Divine Burning Tree King did not answer Xu Shi’s question but instead gazed deeply at him.
“Young friend, won’t you reconsider our mutual support for one another’s achievements?”
At this moment, the Divine Burning Tree King’s heart still harbored reluctance because, if Xu Shi were to stay under his tutelage, he would definitely break through to the Peak and step into the Limit Domain.
By then, with the advantage of the Burning Sky Forest, he could even arm-wrestle with Unparalleled Emperors.
Apart from the unbeatable emperors, he would truly stand atop the Peak of Eternity.
No one doesn’t want to become stronger; it’s just that everyone expresses it differently. The Divine Burning Tree King was of the more discreet kind.
He never revealed his ambition to the other Burning Sky Trees, so they only knew him as decisive in action, unaware of his strong ambition to become more powerful.
“Senior, it isn’t nice to compel someone against their will!”
“Besides, I originally owed you a favor.”
“But now, I am returning this favor to you!”
“Let me tell you something, my master went from being a mortal to reaching the Eternal Realm in just a few hundred years.”
“Do you still wish to take action?”
As soon as Xu Shi spoke these words, the Divine Burning Tree King’s eyes widened with shock and disbelief.
“A few hundred years, from mortal to Eternal!!!”
“How is that possible!!”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”
“How can someone span from mortal to Eternal in just a few hundred years, crossing such an insurmountable chasm?”
At that moment, the Divine Burning Tree King was profoundly shaken and looked at Xu Shi in front of him with amazement.
If the other’s master was truly as said, then he had to rethink his plans.
“Why couldn’t it be possible!”
Just then, a strident voice exploded behind the Divine Burning Tree King, and a stunning, incomparably beautiful woman, stepping on platinum-colored flames, approached. Her voice hardly fell, and she was already behind the Divine Burning Tree King.
“Sister Jin Ling!”
Xu Shi flashed next to Jin Ling and obediently called out.
“What are you talking about with him? If you’re going to act, just take care of him!”
“With your ability, you shouldn’t be afraid of him, right?”
Jin Ling glanced at Xu Shi with some dissatisfaction. Had it been any of the other Five Imperial Beasts, they would have handled him straight away.
Indeed, Little Potato, who had joined them later, still hadn’t reached the same level of consciousness as they did; he would need more guidance in the future.
As for the Divine Burning Tree King, upon seeing Jin Ling’s arrival, he was inwardly shook even more. This woman, although she had the same cultivation level as Xu Shi, gave him a perilously dangerous feeling.
This feeling, he had never experienced even from the Extreme Emperors, only from the Unparalleled Emperors.
“Whoosh!”
The next second, the Divine Burning Tree King slipped away without any warning in front of the two.
This left Jin Ling and Xu Shi speechless, especially Xu Shi. Good fellow, so it’s about bullying the weak and fearing the strong, is it? I wasn’t unable to beat you, I just didn’t want to make a move!!
Thanks to that damn dog, Jin Ling looked down on him, leaving Xu Shi quite exasperated!
“Forget it, spare him his dog life!”
“Follow me. There’s a situation with the boss!”
Jin Ling immediately grabbed Xu Shi, and in a flash, they both disappeared from the spot.
Ye Feng’s Six Beasts weren’t ranked by age but by how long they had been following Ye Feng.
The ‘boss’ he mentioned was none other than the Tongtian Stone Monkey, Monkey Brother, the Great Saint Equal to Heaven!
At this moment, Brother Monkey was standing quietly, his eyes devoid of any ripples, resembling a still pond.
Since arriving in the World of Eternity, the Six Beasts had scattered far and wide. He thought it would take some time before they could meet, but unexpectedly, he had first gotten in touch with Jin Ling, who also found Xu Shi.
