At the center of this heavenly palace was a spring with thousands of strands of auspicious energy and ten thousand streaks of multicolored light surging outwards. It was clearly a divine spring, the spiritual essence so rich it couldn't be dispersed.
Of course, this wasn't the most eye-catching part. What truly shook one's mind and made them unable to shift their eyes away was the object within. Ten thousand great dao traces interweaved, dazzling and resplendent.
This was a precious tree. Immortal energy swirled about it, making it seem dreamlike and illusory. It was as if it took root in the immortal domain, growing into the mortal world and connecting the two realms.
It had a few main branches that were old and rough, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that they had already merged with the dao. Meanwhile, those fine branches were sparkling and translucent, flowing with brilliant colors, mysterious and profound.
In its surroundings were strands and strands of great dao traces that merged with heaven and earth, occasionally releasing resonant sounds. The sonorous sounds of the great dao rumbled, almost making one comprehend the dao in that instant.
Of course, the most eye-catching part was the leaves on the tender branches. Not a single one was the same, every single one sparkling and flickering as if they were cast from the nine heavens' divine jade. They flickered with endless multicolored light, all of them great dao traces.
There was a leaf that was shaped like a small cauldron, lacking luster, simple and unadorned. It had three legs and two ears, one of the cauldron legs was the leaf stalk, connected to the thin branch, the carrier of the great dao.
Meanwhile, there was another leaf that was shaped like an immortal phoenix, its entire body bright red like blood. Scarlet multicolored light flickered about, as if it was born while bathing in divine flames, about to spread its wings and soar into the sky. Only a single phoenix plume was connected to the branch, surging with red multicolored light and auspicious light. Phoenix cries could vaguely be heard.
There was even a leaf that was shaped like a small golden bell, completely golden and translucent. When it swayed lightly, it actually released a great bell ringing sound that made one want to merge with the dao.
The leaves on it were of all shapes and sizes, difficult to find the same one. Vermilion bird, eight trigrams, divine sword, gourd, precious umbrella, all of them flickered with divine multicolored light, making one feel intoxicated. Every single leaf was a type of great dao trace, affecting one's mind.
How could this type of immortal tree not be shocking? It was unavoidable for them to swallow their saliva. They were naturally extremely moved. This type of treasure was difficult to find in this world, anyone who came would tremble.
Longma was so moved that he almost kicked Daoist Wuliang out. by relying on Duan De's keen eyes and ears, even though he was fat, his body was extremely nimble, avoiding the kick.
"Treasure!" The large black dog swallowed, and was the first to pounce. Longma wasn't willing to fall behind, and it raised its basin-sized hooves and rushed forward, almost stepping on the Black Emperor's tail.
"Woof!"
"Neigh!"
Dogs barked and horses neighed. Together with Duan De's "Infinite Celestial Being", the place suddenly became lively.
"There's no need to fight. There are so many immortal leaves here." Ye Fan and the Sacred Prince quickly separated them, or else they would definitely fight.
This was the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree. No one had expected to see it here. Its trunk was rough, and the old tree bark spread out like dragon scales. It contained the energy of the great dao.
As for the tender branches and those sparkling and translucent leaves, there was no need to talk about them. They were all mystical, and any one of them was priceless. These were not the tender shoots that Ye Fan and the others had collected back then. These were flawless leaves formed from interweaving dao marks.
Boom!
A leaf that looked like a thirty-three-story pagoda gently trembled, and Xuan Yellow energy flowed through it. It emitted a rumbling sound that calmed one's heart, and the restlessness immediately disappeared.
Clang!
A silver-white leaf that looked like a dao sword shone with dazzling cold light. It flickered with blazing radiance and released a sword cry. It hacked at everyone's minds, severing all of their obsessions. Everyone felt like they were going to experience enlightenment in that instant.
"It's too mysterious. No wonder the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree is known to be the embodiment of the great dao, taking root outside of the world's mysterious yellow, not within the five elements. Every single type of dao can be found on its body, and one can use this to deeply comprehend it."
The divine pool gurgled. It wasn't that large, but spiritual essence surged, wrapping around every single leaf. Water multicolored light pervaded the air, and thin smoke curled about. Brilliant colors shone in all directions, dazzling and beautiful.
Ye Fan, the Sacred Prince, Duan De, and the others surrounded it, carefully sizing it up. They discovered that the lower parts of the trunk weren't connected, all broken branches without roots.
This was cut off by someone from the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree. The cut was smooth, and there was a mysterious liquid seeping out. A fragrance assailed the nostrils, making one feel as if they were going to become an immortal and ascend.
As they stood here, all of the cells in their bodies became active, every pore opening and closing, exchanging radiance with the multicolored light here, taking in and sending out essence. Their feet left the ground on their own, as if they were going to ascend to immortality.
"His methods are truly heaven-defying, entering deep into Undying Mountain and cutting down the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree, producing a few thick branches. It's just like a fantasy story." Li Heishui sighed.
"Existences that transcend deities live up to their reputation." Ye Fan said softly.
The Undying Heavenly Emperor was an initial archaic figure, perhaps even more ancient, born several million years ago. This Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree was cut down precisely during that era.
In the past, the Undying Heavenly Emperor carved the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree's trunk into a divine coffin, burying himself within. Many people in later generations, including Ye Fan, had seen it before.
The Central Province Immortal Manor World's ten thousand zhang jade platform had previously displayed the scene of several extreme dao emperor weapons confronting each other. The Undying Heavenly Emperor's divine will even more so manifested there.
Ye Fan had seized the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree's coffin there, gifting it to a few old friends. Pang Bo had even chewed on the coffin lid because of this, causing a few jokes.
The heavenly palace was grand and majestic, richly ornamented and resplendent. The divine pool was located at the center of the hall, gurgling about. The Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree's trunk seemed to still be growing on the main root, possessing exuberant vitality. Auspicious multicolored light shone in tens of thousands of streaks, dao marks hanging down strand by strand.
For them, this was a heaven-defying good fortune that could only be discovered and not sought!
Beside the divine pool, there was also a stone table and a few stone stools. On top of it, there was a divine pot with nine dragons coiling around it, as well as a few jade cups. It was clear that the Heavenly Prince often drank the Dao Comprehension Tea here.
"People can't be compared to each other. There's Dao Comprehension Tea to taste, there's a divine spring to drink, all of this is the extravagance of an ancient great emperor."
"Let's brew a pot of tea too." Duan De flipped his hand, bringing out a few jade cups, all of them sparkling and translucent, not inferior to the cups on the stone table. He had dug them out from an ancient tomb.
Innate dao flames throbbed, a Golden Peng spread its wings in the lake, and a Black Tortoise raised its head, resonating with the great dao. A rich fragrance pervaded the air, and the entire great hall was covered in clouds and rosy clouds.
The tea turned into dao light as soon as it entered their mouths. Everyone's mind became tranquil, instantly entering a state of dao comprehension. All of the secret techniques they learned underwent a period of accumulation, improving and sublimating.
"Too wonderful for words." This was everyone's true feeling.
The leaves on the branches weren't that dense, and every single one was different from the others. They didn't look completely bare, and they were all mysterious and unfathomable.
It was rumored that the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree only produced 108 leaves every year, no more, no less. Only during the great reincarnation cycle every ten thousand years could it produce three thousand!
And now, even though many of them had been used up, there were still several hundred shining, their value immeasurable.
"This was formed during the ten thousand year reincarnation cycle. We have great luck!"
They carefully inspected this divine spring, discovering that it didn't lead underground, but was just a pool of water. There were mysterious symbols carved on it, gathering the essence energy of heaven and earth, carrying the divine water and nourishing the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree.
"Dig up even the pond!"
This group of people naturally wouldn't act politely. They came here to exterminate the clan to begin with, so they immediately took action, digging up the entire divine pond, wishing to bring it all away.
"Where do you think you're going?" The sacred prince shouted.
There was a Dao Severing Expert here who had been hiding for a long time. Right now, he wanted to escape to invite the ancestral king, but the monkey brandished the great metal rod, immediately smashing his bones and tendons, dying a violent death.
"Don't worry, there's a great formation set up outside, no one can escape. Let's continue searching."
No one would have thought that a temporary imperial residence left behind by the Undying Heavenly Emperor, not the main palace above the Nine Heavens that could overlook all living things, would actually have this type of world-defying immortal object. Everyone was extremely moved.
They completely flipped through the main peaks, their harvest quite abundant. There were ancient medicines, divine materials, spiritual roots, and everything else, every single one of them priceless.
Of course, the most precious among them was the Dao Comprehension Tree Trunk. There were so many leaves, enough for many saints to bow down and beg for them. This was priceless.
In the end, not a single blade of grass grew on the main peaks. They dug up all of the medicinal plants and other things, and the palaces almost collapsed. Even the divine source embedded in the pillars and other things were ripped off.
It could be said that it was as if locusts had passed through, leaving almost nothing behind.
There were quite a few floating palaces in the sky, but they weren't spared either, becoming their spoils of war. They packed them up and stored them into spatial magical artifacts.
When they left, the immortal earth that was originally surging with essence energy had turned into a barren mountain range, not even a single strand of hair remained.
However, Duan De was still reluctant to leave, continuously wandering around the various peaks, unknown what he was searching for.
"Let's hurry up and leave." Ye Fan urged. They couldn't stay here for too long, alarming the ancestral kings, and it would be troublesome.
"This humble daoist saw that the mountains here aren't bad, surrounded by spiritual water, a wonderful place for burial. I believe that the ancestors of the heavenly princes were most likely buried here, but the result is truly disappointing."
The group of people all rolled their eyes. Nothing was left behind wherever this fatty went. The treasures in the divine watchtower and other things were fine, but even the burial mounds were targeted. It was a bit terrifying.
"One mustn't be too immoral!"
"Boundless Celestial Being."
The group of people left the mountain gate and pulled out the Heaven Deceiving Formation and the Heaven Origin Rune Channel. According to Longma, they might as well burn this place down.
The Black Emperor put on an act and said with a sorrowful expression, "Always leave a way out."
"Not even a single strand of hair is left, what way is there to leave!" Longma said in disdain.
"Leave a way out for now, or else the ancestral kings will jump out immediately." Ye Fan said. The group returned with great rewards, disappearing into the depths of the mountain range.
In the Southern Region, the Heavenly Prince stood on the immemorial war chariot. His black hair was thick, his appearance was handsome, and his eyes were like two cold stars. He carried the Undying Heaven Blade on his back, and his aura could swallow mountains and rivers.
He led the eight divine generals to rule the Southern Region, and no one dared to stop him. Everywhere he passed, everything was silent, and no one dared to speak. The cultivators of the Southern Region kept quiet out of fear.
"The Sacred Prince is nothing, and that mysterious human expert is also an ant. In front of the invincible Heavenly Prince, he's just a chicken and a stray dog. He can't even withstand a single blow!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire Eastern Barren was shaken. His words were arrogant and overbearing, and he didn't put the two experts who could kill half-saints in his eyes.
Everyone knew that the Heavenly Prince and the Sacred Prince had shed all pretenses of cordiality, and were about to fight to the death. Otherwise, their troops wouldn't say such things.
On that day, the big auction houses of the Southern Region suddenly announced that there would be world-shocking items being auctioned.
"God's Son … Not good!" An ancient flew to a mountain peak in the Southern Region.
"What are you panicking for? What happened?" The Heavenly Prince asked in a low voice.
"Someone is auctioning the Undying Heaven Emperor's palace and all kinds of rare treasures."
The Heavenly Prince's eyes straightened, and his expression was cold to the extreme.
Off to the side, one of the eight Divine Generals berated loudly, "How dare you! You're trying to mislead us with your lies! Who's talking nonsense?!"
"It's not nonsense. I saw it with my own eyes. Also, the jade cup that the Heavenly Prince uses to drink the Enlightenment Tea is also being auctioned." The ancient kneeling on the mountain peak was trembling with fear.
"What?!" The Heavenly Prince's expression finally changed. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes were like two bolts of lightning.
"Also …" The ancient kneeling on the ground trembled, and he didn't dare to say anything.
"What else?" A commander shouted.
"Someone is also auctioning the underwear of the God's Son."
"Pfft!"
The Heavenly Prince was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood and almost fell to the ground. He knew that the palace had been ransacked, and this was a tit-for-tat humiliation.
