In the Tree World, Fang Yun kept moving forward, using the mosquito trap to avoid all the ferocious trees.
On the way, Fang Yun didn't go in a straight line. Instead, he went to some hidden places to pick some divine items that could only be found in the Tree World.
After a few days of traveling, Fang Yun finally stopped. He climbed up a tall tree and stood on top of it to look ahead.
The trees in the Tree World were tall and dense. The trees in front of him were densely packed, and the leaves were like a sea.
At the end of the sea of trees, there was an undulating mountain range. It seemed to be the end of the Tree World, cutting the sea of trees in half. There wasn't a single tree on the mountain, and the mountain rocks were dark red. From afar, it looked like a blood dragon was lying down.
The mountain range was uneven, but the lowest was 30 kilometers tall. Above the mountain peaks were endless gray clouds that surged in all directions from the depths of the mountain range. They were vast and mighty like thousands of rivers that spread into the sea.
These mountains were the Blood Dripping Mountains of the Tree World.
Fang Yun looked carefully and finally found a gap between two mountains. He was sure that he had found the direction because that was the only way to the blood tree.
Fang Yun immediately jumped down from the tree and sat on Xing Liu's back as they sped toward the gap. After a long time, he climbed up to the top of the tree and saw that the Blood Dripping Mountains were very close. The gap from afar had become very wide. It was a canyon.
At the edge of the canyon, ten great demon kings could be faintly seen. The leader was a Fourth Realm snake great demon king. Its aura was vigorous, and poisonous fog surrounded it. It had an obvious pressure of the ancestor god race.
There were at least two spirit skeletons behind each great demon king. The lowest was at the Second Realm, and the strongest was at the Emperor Realm.
Fang Yun's heart tightened, but after careful observation, he heaved a sigh of relief. Although the eagle emperor's spirit skeleton was powerful, its left wing was obviously damaged. This also meant that its strength in the sky was greatly reduced. However, the eagle race wasn't suitable for fighting on land, so this spirit skeleton couldn't compare to Xing Liu at all.
Xing Liu was a complete Emperor Realm spirit skeleton.
The depths of the canyon were filled with a faint red light. There were shadows in the red light that couldn't be seen clearly.
Fang Yun was about to get down from the tree when he seemed to have thought of something. He gathered his Qi in his eyes and looked over.
The peculiar faint red light immediately became completely transparent, allowing them to see everything in the canyon.
Fang Yun was shocked. That red light was the power of the Blood Tree. Without entering the valley, even Half-saint could not see through it. He did not expect that he would be able to see through it so easily.
The canyon was three miles wide, but the blood tree was much thicker than the canyon's width, so it was impossible to see the whole picture. Only the blood-colored bark and part of the trunk could be seen, while the higher branches were hidden in the fog.
Fang Yun tried to look at the fog, but he couldn't see through it. He didn't pay it any mind. The fog was just a cover, different from the red light.
Under the huge blood-red tree, there was a huge stone platform that was about three hundred meters tall. The stone platform was simple and crude, and it was as black as ink. There were strange symbols and patterns carved on it, and every symbol and pattern was covered in bright red blood. The bright red blood was flowing slowly, making the stone platform look particularly strange.
Fang Yun took a careful look at the Blood Tree Altar. It was identical to the one in the Ancient Fey's legacy.
The altar was divided into three levels.
The lowest level of the altar was squarish, and there were statues that seemed to be made of blood placed around it. The statues were all different. There were humans, demons, barbarians, Ancient Fey, and Dragons.
These statues that seemed to be made of blood were extremely strange. Disgusting blood bubbles constantly appeared on their surfaces, and they emitted ferocity and resentment.
In front of this level of the altar, there were hundreds of demons and barbarians. These demons and barbarians were facing the sky with their eyes closed. They were chanting, and their minds were wandering. Wisps of blood and qi flew out of their nostrils, landing on the blood statues and being absorbed by them.
Among the hundreds of great demon kings and great barbarian kings, two snake emperors were especially eye-catching. Their bodies were more than five hundred meters long, and they were like small mountains.
Like the other demons and barbarians, these two snake emperors were also having their powers absorbed by the blood statues.
The blood that was flowing from the blood statues followed the grooves and patterns to the center of this level.
The middle level of the altar above the lower level was a huge round plate. The blood that was formed by the blood statues followed the grooves and patterns to the round plate. Finally, it flowed to the center of the round plate and entered the top level of the altar.
At the top level of the altar was a stone boat that was about ten meters long. It had black stripes and a gray bottom. Inside the stone boat, there was a huge blood-colored egg.
The surface of the egg was covered with fine branches. The branches hung down from the blood tree in the fog, forming a hanging basket that merged with the egg.
Through the parts that were not covered by the branches, one could see that the blood egg was emitting a bloody light. It was like a huge beating heart. The light emitted from the egg was bright and dark with the beating of the heart, constantly changing.
With just a glance, Fang Yun felt that his heartbeat suddenly changed, becoming exactly the same as that of the blood egg.
Fang Yun suddenly had a thought. As long as he merged with the blood egg, he would be able to become a Saint, rule the myriad worlds, and fulfill all his dreams. He would definitely be able to let the human race stand at the top of the myriad worlds.
Fang Yun's eyes slowly produced a bloody mist.
After a moment, Fang Yun snorted coldly and decisively looked away. He slid down from the treetop and landed below the tree. He could no longer see the blood egg.
Fang Yun blinked his eyes. The bloody mist in his eyes dissipated and he regained his clarity. He then checked his body and found that there was a bloody light in his head. It was only the size of a sesame seed. If one did not check carefully, they would not have noticed it.
Fang Yun did not get rid of the light. According to the knowledge passed down by the Tree Venerable, as long as one's willpower was strong, there was no harm in keeping the red light. It would automatically dissipate after leaving the Tree World. However, if he forcefully got rid of the red light near the blood tree, he would be viewed as a great enemy and would definitely be killed by the blood tree.
Once again, he sat on Wu Hou's carriage and began to move quickly. However, the direction was not the canyon in the south, but the southeast.
If he wanted to get close to the blood tree, he would need the God Burying Flower.
The existence of the blood tree was different from ordinary ferocious trees or creatures. The blood tree did not have a clear consciousness and was closer to chaos. Only when it absorbed the blood during the sacrificial ceremony would it have a clear consciousness. However, once the ceremony was interrupted, its consciousness would return to chaos.
As long as one did not attack the blood tree, pick the divine medicine on the blood tree, or slaughter the ferocious trees near the blood tree, one would not be attacked by the blood tree as long as one had the red light in one's body. Even if one defecated or peed on the blood tree, the blood tree would not feel insulted or offended.
Therefore, it was very simple to destroy the sacrificial ceremony of the demons and barbarians. All one had to do was rush to the altar and snatch the blood egg. Once the blood egg disappeared, the sacrificial ceremony would end. After that, one would not be attacked by the blood tree.
However, the problem was how to reach the altar.
During the sacrificial ceremony, the blood tree would not allow any enemies to get close. Furthermore, the moment the blood egg was snatched, it would launch a frenzied attack. Even if it could only last for a moment, it was enough to kill a saint.
Fang Yun was not worried about the blood tree's final attack because the Tree Venerable's inherited secret technique could stop the blood tree's final frenzy. In that case, the key was to hide from the blood tree and get close to the blood egg.
The God Burying Flower could make the blood tree ignore him.
