"Junior Brother Gu!" Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou landed beside Tang Huan at almost the same time.
"Senior Sister Caiwei, Senior Sister ManRou, I've kept you waiting."
Tang Huan retracted her aura, stood up, and looked at the two apologetically. Once the path opened, tens of thousands of cultivators rushed over impatiently, and only they stayed behind, which made Tang Huan feel extremely grateful.
"Junior Brother Gu, you don't have to be so formal with us."
Tang ManRou smiled as she waved her hand. Soon after, she asked curiously, "Junior brother Gu, do you know the origin of this tree? It's actually so terrifying?"
"I'm not too sure either."
Tang Huan shook his head and laughed, "However, this tree is completely formed from energy. Right now, it doesn't have much energy left, so if I use all of its sucking, I might be able to see it more clearly." Almost at the same time his voice fell, the terrifying power of the sucking once again howled out, enveloping the black tree within.
"Wuuu —"
With a light ringing sound, strands of black Qi separated from various parts of the black tree and entered Tang Huan's body.
This black tree was formed by power, and it could still maintain its form after losing such a large amount of power. This meant that there must be a source inside the tree, or a tree spirit, or something else. When its power was exhausted, it would naturally reveal itself.
Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou were also interested as they stared at the black tree without blinking.
Under Tang Huan's full strength sucking, in less than half a quarter of an hour, the height of the black tree was already less than a meter. The densely packed tree roots drooped down from the branches, and from time to time, they would weakly sway left and right, as if they were being gently blown by a gentle breeze. They no longer had their previous imposing might.
"Wuuu —"
After a while, when the last few strands of black Qi were separated, the black tree, which was only half a meter long, let out a light wail. Seeing this, Tang Huan immediately stopped the sucking on the small tree.
Immediately after, under the six gazes of Tang Huan, Gu Caiwei, and Tang Manrou, the countless roots of the small tree quickly dissipated like smoke, followed by branches, trunks, roots …
In the blink of an eye, the small tree had disappeared into thin air, leaving behind a crystal that was about half a foot long and the size of three fingers. It was emitting a faint black luster, and then, with a cracking sound, the fiery red chain that was wrapped around the crystal also loosened.
Only then did the three of them realize that there was only one chain. It was only because it was entangled together that they mistook it for two chains. After loosening, not only did it immediately dim down, it even detached itself from the walls on both sides of the passageway, revealing itself completely.
After exchanging glances with Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou, Tang Huan extended his hand and grabbed, causing the long black crystal to fall into his palm. Upon closer inspection, Tang Huan discovered that within the crystal, there was actually a faintly discernible shadow of a tree, which was extremely similar to the huge black tree that had appeared before.
Just as Tang Huan was about to examine it carefully, the black color of the crystal in his palm became fainter and fainter. Not long later, it became almost transparent, and through the crystal, one could even clearly see the lines on his palm. Not only that, after the black color disappeared, there was even a surge of immortal spirit energy that overflowed.
"Celestial Tree Crystal?"
Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou both widened their beautiful eyes when they saw the miraculous change that had occurred to the black crystal. After a short moment, they seemed to have thought of something and cried out in unison. Their bright black eyes revealed an uncontrollable shock.
"Oh?"
Tang Huan looked at the two of them in the blink of an eye.
Gu Caiwei regained her senses and let out a light breath. She said with some surprise, "Junior Brother Gu, the 'Celestial Tree Crystal' is a treasure condensed by the Ancient Era's Immortals. If the Mind Stigma fuses with it, it can be kept in the Dantian, and if it continues to be nurtured with energy, it will become stronger and stronger, and might even be stronger than when we first saw it.
"In the Netherworld, the 'Celestial Tree Crystal' is extremely rare. We only heard an elder mention this' Celestial Tree Crystal 'once, but we never thought that we would actually meet it here. Junior Brother Gu, quickly fuse your own Mind Stigma into it." Tang Manrou also nodded repeatedly, exclaiming in admiration.
"From the looks of it, it really is a treasure."
Tang Huan nodded his head and smiled, then grabbed Gu Caiwei's soft and fair right hand and slapped the "Celestial Tree Crystal" onto her hand, "Senior Sister Caiwei, take this thing."
Gu Caiwei was immediately stunned. Tang ManRou was also dumbstruck as she looked at Tang Huan in disbelief.
If such a treasure was discovered by the tens of thousands of cultivators that had passed by, they would definitely fight to the point of breaking their heads and bleeding. If it was discovered in the outside world, it would attract countless experts to covet it, and even cause rivers of blood to flow in order to fight for it. But now, Tang Huan actually gave it away without hesitation?
"This, this …"
Gu Caiwei woke up from her stupor and shook her head, "Junior Brother Gu, quickly take it back. This' Celestial Tree Crystal 'is too precious, I definitely can't take it!"
With that, Gu Caiwei was about to stuff the "Celestial Tree Crystal" back into Tang Huan's hands. If it was any other small item, she would have accepted it, but this treasure was something that Tang Huan had taken a huge risk to get close to the giant tree, and had painstakingly absorbed the energy for such a long time to obtain.
Tang Huan looked at Gu Caiwei with a smile, and said with an unquestionable tone: "Senior Sister Caiwei, no matter how precious something is, it can't compare to the friendship between friends. If you still treat me as a friend, then please accept it!"
Tang Huan was indeed very touched that they were able to stay here and wait for her while everyone else passed through the passageway and entered the Immortal Ruins. The "Celestial Tree Crystal" was Tang Huan's repayment to her. Just as Tang Huan had said, no matter how precious this thing was, it couldn't compare to a true friend.
"This, this …"
Gu Caiwei looked at Tang Huan in a daze, and Tang ManRou's expression also changed greatly. The words that Tang Huan had just said had caused their emotions to surge.
Tang Huan smiled slightly, extended his hand and grabbed, and the fiery red chain once again landed in his palm.
"Huh?"
After sensing it carefully for a moment, a strange light flashed past Tang Huan's eyes.
Not only did this chain contain the fire origin energy, it also contained a dense celestial spiritual energy. What was even more surprising was that this Dao Artifact was actually a top-grade Dao Artifact.
