After the phantom vanished, the portrait slowly closed and flew back into Yi Yun's hand.
"Senior Yin, I would like to know what the Azure Wood Manor separatists mentioned previously. Only Yue Yingsha can enter the Door to the 33 Skies. What kind of place is that?"
Yi Yun was already curious about the Key of the Nine Lotus and the restricted zone. However, it involved the heritage of the Azure Wood Manor, so Yi Yun felt that it was inappropriate for him to ask about it. But now, he had to ask about it. Perhaps, it was the key to their survival.
"The restricted zone … is the internal space of the divine tree. According to its location, the restricted zone is probably in the main root of the divine tree. That is the place closest to the divine tree's spirit. Back when the Door to the 33 Skies was closed, there was once an Azure Wood Manor patriarch who awakened the divine tree. She recorded the existence of the restricted zone and the divine tree's spirit in her notebook."
"According to this ancestor's records, later generations of the Azure Wood Manor believed that by finding the restricted zone and gaining control of the divine tree's spirit, they would be able to awaken the divine tree once again. Not only would they be able to save the Azure Wood Manor, they would also be able to obtain incredible power. The Azure Wood Manor separatists were here for this power. As for the Key of the Nine Lotus, it was also left behind by this ancestor. "
"The divine tree's spirit …" Yi Yun looked at Yue Yingsha. "Will finding the restricted zone guarantee that one will be able to find and control the divine tree's spirit?"
Yue Yingsha sighed and shook her head. She said, "Actually … not necessarily … It was an illusory notebook left behind by the ancestor. And that ancestor was an extraordinary person. What she could awaken, I might not be able to do."
Yue Yingsha did not have much confidence, especially now that she had entered the Door to the 33 Skies. She had witnessed the strangeness and danger of the Door to the 33 Skies.
"Yi Yun … as for you, your perceptivity is something I've never seen in my life. You are practically the chosen one of God. This is your first time seeing the portrait, but you were able to awaken the ancestor's power. Perhaps, you are the most suitable candidate …"
Yue Yingsha said sourly. Yue Yingsha's impression was that the black-dressed woman was equivalent to a god. She had existed in an extremely ancient era, so she absolutely did not believe that Yi Yun had any connection with the black-dressed woman. Then, the only reason why Yi Yun could awaken the portrait was because it was destined by the heavens!
Such talent and perceptivity left Yue Yingsha feeling powerless. She had been praying in front of the divine tree since a young age, injecting the divine tree's sap into her bloodline. But even so, it was useless. Perhaps, Yi Yun was more suitable to be the overseer of the Azure Wood Manor than she was.
Granny Yin moved her lips but did not say a word. Although she was unwilling to admit it, it was a fact.
"Then … let's go to the Divine Tree. This plain has been sealed by the bronze giant's power. It's already impossible to leave. Even Divine Lords can't leave, much less us. Perhaps we can only find a chance of survival in the middle of the divine tree. "
To walk towards the divine tree was to walk towards the bronze giant, which sounded almost suicidal.
But sometimes, a hopeless situation could be a way out. You would be able to survive if you were placed in a hopeless situation!
Yue Yingsha and Granny Yin looked each other in the eye. Although they knew that it was dangerous, they could not think of a better solution at that moment in time. Instead of being trapped to death by the plains, they might as well risk their lives.
"The divine tree is a God Spirit planted by the Sacred Ancestor. Now that the divine tree is in slumber, it is being destroyed wantonly by the bronze giant. If the divine tree were to awaken, perhaps everything would be different."
Yue Yingsha was convinced that the power that the divine tree had accumulated for hundreds of millions of years was irresistible. Even the bronze giant was no match for it!
In this hopeless situation, the trio set off once again. And this time, their goal was the middle of the plains.
In a hopeless situation that had been sealed, there was no way out by walking towards the periphery. However, walking towards the center of the land was surprisingly fast. It was as though one step was equivalent to five steps. After walking for fifteen minutes, the divine tree's root appeared in sight once again.
During this process, evil demons and shadows constantly appeared, but they were all killed by Yi Yun's activation of the scroll's power.
As for the murderous waters of the River Styx, Granny Yin managed to avoid them with her understanding of the terrain.
Although the trio's strength was limited, they relied on various tricks to safely traverse the plains of death.
As they approached the center of the plains, Yi Yun could already see a blurry shadow towering over the horizon.
It was the bronze giant!
The bronze giant's body was wrapped in chains and he was motionless like a statue. He was no longer chopping down trees.
Perhaps he had expended all of his strength and was recovering his strength. Or perhaps he would only begin at night.
"He's not moving. Is he in slumber?"
It would be best if the bronze giant was in slumber.
Granny Yin shook her head. "I'm afraid it's not that good. If we were to really walk over, we would definitely alarm it. When that happens, it would be able to kill us as easily as crushing ants."
Yi Yun frowned. To approach the divine tree, he needed to get past the bronze giant. However, it was just too difficult. The portrait left behind by the black-dressed woman could kill the evil demons, but it was probably useless against the bronze giant.
Just as Yi Yun was in a dilemma, he suddenly saw a few figures appear on the horizon. As they were too far away, the figures were as tiny as sesame seeds in Yi Yun's field of vision.
However, in a blink of an eye, one of the figures expanded and transformed into a gigantic ghostly hand that grabbed at the bronze giant!
As for the other figure, he slashed out a gigantic azure sword. As the sword flashed, the sword beam split the world apart, as though it was the only thing in the world!
The mighty power attacked the bronze giant at the same time.
"It's Master!" Yi Yun sensed Felicitous Rain Lord's aura from the azure sword.
As for the gigantic ghostly hand, it was like a devil's hand that had reached out from the realm of ghosts. Beneath the rotting flesh, white bones could be seen. It exuded a cold aura of death.
"That person is … the Fey Phantasm Sect's Demonic Eye Divine Lord."
From the looks of it, Felicitous Rain Lord and Demonic Eye Divine Lord had been trapped in the plains of death. Taking advantage of the bronze giant's slumber, they had launched an attack!
The strangeness of the plains of death was due to the bronze giant. As long as they could slay the bronze giant, they would be able to leave the plains of death.
The attacks of two Divine Lords were extremely terrifying!
Just looking at it made Yi Yun feel a stabbing pain in his eyes. His protective Yuan Qi was involuntarily stimulated.
And behind the Fey Phantasm Sect's Demonic Eye Divine Lord, a few figures formed an array formation, condensing a ghostly shadow the size of a hill that pounced at the bronze giant.
One of the figures looked familiar to Yi Yun.
"Daoist You Ming is here as well." Yi Yun's expression sank slightly.
Right at this moment, the bronze giant suddenly opened his eyes!
His eyes seemed to look out from the depths of an icy abyss. They were cold-blooded and heartless.
When the giant opened his eyes, the chains on his body immediately produced rattling sounds. Every sound sounded like thunder.
The bronze giant stomped the ground, immediately causing the ground to quake.
He brandished his ax and faced Felicitous Rain Lord and Demonic Eye Divine Lord's attacks.
