After entering the Soul Devouring Rat King's room and taking a seat, Yi Tian did not even open his mouth before Soul Devouring Rat King pointed at the little thing in his hand and said, "Thank you, Sect Master, for sending my descendant back. Thanks to you taking good care of it, this little thing was not frightened."
Upon hearing this, Yi Tian hurriedly put down the Treasure-seeking Rat in his hand. After the little thing landed on the ground, it quickly scurried to Soul Devouring Rat's side and kept squeaking, as if it was recounting what had happened.
After hearing the Treasure-seeking Rat's report, Soul Devouring Rat King waved his hand and sent it out of the room. After three breaths, he said, "Back then, the Thousand Spirit Sect's He Weiming came all the way to the Northern Plains to forcefully capture this little guy while I was not around. I thought I would not have the chance to meet him, but I never expected that he would be sent back by Sect Master."
Yi Tian's expression relaxed as he said lightly, "Fellow Daoist He is long dead, Rat King, there is no need to worry." After a pause, Soul Devouring Rat King nodded slightly in response. Yi Tian went straight to the point and said, "I came here because I learned from Thousand Eagle King that the Spirit Wood Core can be found in the Northern Plains, so I specially came to have a chat with Rat King." After saying that, he took out a jade slip and handed it over.
After receiving it, Soul Devouring Rat King placed it on his forehead and quickly read through it with his mind. After a while, he nodded and replied, "Since it was Brother Eagle King who pushed for this matter, I will naturally do my best. Besides, this matter concerns the reconstruction of the Li Fire Sect's Ascension Platform, so it has to be done perfectly."
With Soul Devouring Rat King's words, Yi Tian's expression immediately relaxed as he said, "Rat King, please advise me on how to find the Spirit Wood Core."
"Sect Master, do you know what the Spirit Wood Core is?" Soul Devouring Rat King asked with deep meaning.
Yi Tian had done his homework before coming here. Although he had never seen the real thing, he had a rough understanding of it from the descriptions in the literature. Immediately, he described the characteristics and appearance of the Spirit Wood Core.
A smile appeared on the Soul-Devouring Rat King's face as he said, "Sect Master is right. The Spirit Wood Core is indeed as you said. How much does Sect Master need? "
"According to the literature on the Ascension Platform, it needs to be about five inches in size," Yi Tian replied bluntly.
When the Soul-Devouring Rat King heard this, he said indifferently, "Sect Master, do you know that this Spirit Wood Core is the core essence of the Divine Wood? Even after a thousand years, it can only condense to the size of an inch of a date pit."
"Since Rat King has seen this Spirit Wood Core, then you must know where it is. Rat King, please enlighten me." Yi Tian's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.
The Soul Devouring Rat King stretched out his hand to indicate for them to calm down. Then, he said with a serious expression, "This spirit wood core is the source of the divine wood. It absorbs the essence of heaven and earth to nourish the body of the divine wood. It can be said that all spirit plants and living beings in the northern plains rely on this divine wood to survive. If Sect Master removes too much of the Spiritual Wood Cores at once, it will definitely affect all the living beings in the Northern Plains. Sect Master, please reconsider. "
What surprised Yi Tian was that he didn't expect the Divine Builder Tree to be involved in so many things. If he took out the Spirit Wood Core, it would cause the northern plains' spirit force to dry up. Thinking about this, he couldn't think of a suitable solution.
Seeing this, the Soul Devouring Rat King opened his mouth again and said, "Sect Master, please come with us to see the situation of the Spirit Wood Core before making a decision."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Rat King." Yi Tian also wanted to take a look at the Spirit Wood Core first. Although he was determined to obtain the Spirit Wood Core, he had to obtain it in a proper way.
After leaving his residence, Yi Tian followed the Soul Devouring Rat King and flew toward the Divine Builder Tree. About two hours later, the two of them arrived at the Divine Builder Tree.
Yi Tian stood under the tree roots and looked up. He found that the trunk of the Divine Builder Tree was about ten feet thick. It was covered with a layer of wrinkled bark, but there were faint specks of starlight shining between the cracks of the bark.
Stopping to take a closer look, he discovered that the sparkling starlight actually contained an extremely strong spiritual energy. There were countless such specks of light on the entire tree, and the concentration of spiritual energy in the surroundings was three times stronger than that of the sect's spiritual veins.
This kind of appearance could only be compared to the sealed land at the top of the Western Wilderness.
The Soul Devouring Rat King stood not far from the tree roots. He formed a seal with his hands and sent a seal to the roots of the Divine Builder Tree. Then a passage appeared on the left and right sides of the originally intertwined tree roots.
The Soul Devouring Rat King said, "Sect Master, please come with me." Then his figure flashed and disappeared into the passage.
Yi Tian followed closely behind, and Shaoqing entered a tree hole. The two walked down the tree hole for a while. Suddenly, a green light flashed in front of them, and they arrived at the inner cave at the end of the passage.
This inner cave was filled with a large amount of mist spirit force. He suddenly felt a wet feeling under his feet. He looked down and found that the ground was covered in a layer of wet mud.
From the mud, he found that it contained an astonishing amount of spirit liquid. Its purity was beyond any place he had seen before.
The Soul Devouring Rat King, who was leading the way, pointed up and said, "Sect Master, please look. This is the core area of the entire Divine Builder Tree. The Divine Builder Tree Core you mentioned should be here."
Yi Tian looked in the direction of his finger. In the depths of the tree hole, there was a huge root as thick as a bucket. There was a place on the root that was flickering from time to time.
A green light flashed in Yi Tian's eyes. He used his eye technique and looked at where the green light was flashing. Inside the root was a fist-sized core. It was crystal clear and was relying on the root below to constantly absorb spirit force.
Needless to say, this green ball of light was the Divine Builder Tree Core. However, Yi Tian's face sank. He knew that the next step would be difficult. The treasure was right in front of him, but just as the Soul Devouring Rat King said, he couldn't take it away. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Looking at the Soul Devouring Rat King below, Yi Tian suddenly asked, "May I ask if this Divine Builder Tree Core is naturally formed?"
"What does Sect Master mean?" the Soul Devouring Rat King asked.
"This Divine Builder Tree should have grown here for tens of thousands of years. Could it be that it directly produced a Divine Builder Tree Core?" Yi Tian was confused.
The Soul Devouring Rat King smiled and simply replied, "This is the second time I've come here for the Divine Builder Tree Core."
"The second time." Yi Tian was stunned. Then, he quickly thought about it. According to this, the person who came here for the first time with the Soul Devouring Rat King must be the Li Huo Ancestor, Ji Xuanyuan.
The Ascension Platform from three thousand years ago must have been obtained here. I just don't know how much the Li Huo Ancestor took away. Thinking of this, Yi Tian asked again, "May I ask how the Li Huo Ancestor took out the Divine Builder Tree Core and how much did he take out?"
The Soul Devouring Rat King gestured with his hand and said, "It's about the size of a longan, but it needs to be refined with a Rank 7 Spirit Plant to fill in the missing parts. That way, the Divine Builder Tree will be fine."
