Just like that, they knelt at the highest vine of the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine, where only an empty Array Formation Rune was left, because the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit that was protected there had already been forcibly taken away by Ye Tianchen!

However, the expressions of these two tree spirit phantoms were very calm, even slightly delighted, because the Divine Thought of the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine had informed them not to worry, anticipating this day long ago. From the start, it produced two Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits, with the other one hidden deep, only manifesting now!

"Demon Tree King, when will the remaining Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit mature?" one of the tree spirits whispered.

"At most five years, at least three, but everything is within my Mythical Era’s Nirvana plans, just in time for this upheaval!"

"Exactly, once the great upheaval of the Martial Arts World arrives, and our Demon Tree King restores its strongest power, it will become the ruler of this world, not even fearing a legendary Emperor Realm figure!" the other tree spirit said proudly.

"Everything is within my calculations and expectations, but I never imagined there would be such a Human Clan martial artist emerging, and there seems to be a familiar aura on this Human Clan martial artist that I can’t discern, so you must be careful!"

"Impossible! Demon Tree King, you’ve fought against Emperor Realm legends in the Mythical Era; could there still be someone in this world you can’t see through?" one tree spirit asked in shock.

"I don’t know what’s going on with this Human Clan martial artist, but I always have a sense of deja vu. Could it be reincarnation? No, there’s no Immortal being in this world, so how would there be talk of reincarnation? Yet, I clearly feel there’s a Mythical Era aura on this Human Clan martial artist, and it’s not weak. What in the world could this mean?"

"King, should we kill this Human Clan martial artist and take back the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit?" another tree spirit asked, frowning deeply.

"No need, I’m doing this intentionally. I always intended to lose one of the two Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits. That’s why I spared no effort to produce two fruits. Even if this Human Clan martial artist hadn’t taken it, other beings from the Barbaric Forbidden Land would have come. However, it’s the potential aura on this Human Clan martial artist that surprises me, perhaps even beyond his own awareness!"

"Then what should we do now?" the tree spirit asked.

"You are not a match for this Human Clan martial artist; you’d die if you go. Him taking my Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit was part of my plans anyway. Otherwise, with his current strength, he couldn’t have taken it. This way, all those eyeing my Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit are diverted. Let the Human Clan martial artist carry this Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit like a ticking bomb everywhere, while I just wait for the remaining one to mature!"

"Wise King!"

"Remember, you two, release the news immediately that the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit has been taken by the Human Clan martialist so that other beings in the Barbaric Forbidden Land know. Additionally, you must guard here every moment, and once the remaining Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit matures, immediately send it to the Original Restricted Zone of Penglai’s Ancient Martial World. Once the Nirvana Seed I left consumes the power of this Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit, I will be thoroughly awakened and resurrected, and no one in this world will be able to stop me!"

"Yes, King!" the two tree spirits said in unison.

Ye Tianchen never anticipated that the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine had produced two Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits, and his ability to take one of them was due to the intentional design of the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine. After all, it had grown here in the Barbaric Forbidden Land for millions of years, slowly recovering its power from its fall in the Mythical Era, until now, regaining not even a ten-thousandth of its strength and producing two Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits. In such circumstances, the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine has long felt other powerful beings in the Barbaric Forbidden Land who are aware of its fruits but wouldn’t act until they mature due to their long-lasting nature. Once mature, they will likely strike!

The Ten Thousand Demon Tree in the Mythical Era had a fierce reputation, having battled legendary Emperor Realm figures, ending in its obliteration. At that time, with its powerful Divine Skills, the Ten Thousand Demon Tree forcibly preserved portions of its roots, rooting in the Medicine King Valley of the Barbaric Forbidden Land, and absorbed nature’s spiritual energy over countless years to gradually recover, though with less than a ten-thousandth of its old strength. Still, the key lies in its seed capable of resurrection, utilizing the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine to produce more Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits and sending them to the reborn Nirvana Ten Thousand Demon Tree to absorb strength, allowing it to fully recover and reclaim its Mythical Era’s majesty.

Yet, the Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine knows that many powerful beings dwell in the Barbaric Forbidden Land. Some even capable of challenging it from its Mythical Era, but are in a state of dormancy and won’t awaken unless absolutely necessary. Dormancy doesn’t mean ignorance of worldly happenings, and its Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruits are akin to life-prolonging Immortal Elixirs. Consuming them would dramatically enhance the power of cultivating beings, likely coveted not just in the Barbaric Forbidden Land but by Earth’s powerful cultivating beings. They are simply waiting for the fruit to mature, hence the strategy to craft two fruits—one meant for destruction, the other hidden—even when Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit is taken, so no other being covets or monitors it. Thus, it can quietly await the maturation of the other fruit, having the two tree spirits deliver it to Penglai’s Ancient Martial World’s Original Restricted Zone. As the Nirvana-reborn Ten Thousand Demon Tree absorbs its power, it can fully awaken and return to the world.

The original decision to plant the Nirvana Rebirth seed and Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine in different locations was to avoid suspicion and keep both safe. While the newly reborn Ten Thousand Demon Tree and Ten Thousand Demon Tree Vine could mutually assist, should strong beings seize the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit, it’s conceivable they could easily destroy the new Nirvana Ten Thousand Demon Tree, obliterating the potential of the Ten Thousand Demon Tree’s Nirvana Rebirth. Although still powerful, it’s far from its former Mythical Era prowess, which is why Ye Tianchen managed to initially escape the Original Restricted Zone and claim the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit here!

At this moment!

Ye Tianchen, with the Little Demon Bat Beast and holding the Ten Thousand Demon Spiritual Fruit, sped towards the depths of the Medicine King Valley, seeing a continuous idyllic scene with flowers and birds, with no sign of terror contradicting the Valley’s chilling reputation where none return!

"What secret does this Medicine King Valley hold, and why is it so serene?" Ye Tianchen mused, frowning.

"Boss, look, there’s a chicken!" the Little Demon Bat Beast suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

"It’s just a chicken; what’s the fuss about? Can you stop being so jumpy?" Ye Tianchen retorted, glancing at the Little Demon Bat Beast.

"Boss, you don’t know; this might not be an ordinary chicken. It’s an Eight Treasures Chicken!" the Little Demon Bat Beast said with a sense of how could Ye Tianchen not know.

"Eight Treasures Chicken?" Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled, hearing this chicken name for the first time.

"Yes, Eight Treasures Chicken is extremely precious, more sought after than typical Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass. It grows by eating nothing but Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass!" the Little Demon Bat Beast said anxiously.

"That impressive?" Ye Tianchen asked in surprise.

"Indeed, the Eight Treasures Chicken eats only Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass. Though this one’s still young, it must have consumed quite a lot to reach its current size. Whether catching it to cook for meat or waiting for its eggs, they’re comparable to Spiritual Pills!" The Little Demon Bat Beast worried Ye Tianchen might let it escape.

"Cluck cluck cluck..."

At this moment, the Eight Treasures Chicken noticed Ye Tianchen and the Little Demon Bat Beast and disdainfully clucked twice at them, scratching its feet and disappearing quickly, leaving Ye Tianchen stunned that such a chicken could run so fast, as if it was mocking them.

"That fast?" Ye Tianchen said in amazement.

"Boss, the Eight Treasures Chicken is a Spiritual Beast. Though lacking offensive power, it’s naturally adept at Flying and Escaping, with strong Perception, which helps it find many Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass to consume. Imagine a chicken raised solely on such grass; its medicinal potency must be immense!" the Little Demon Bat Beast explained.

"Yes, this is a fine chicken. It dared challenge us earlier, so I must catch it. If it behaves, I’ll keep it for its eggs; if not, I’ll cook it immediately!" Ye Tianchen chuckled, tempted (to be continued. If you enjoy this story, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote, as your support is my greatest motivation.
