Feng Wanli was somewhat surprised, reconstructing an Immortal Body was only a minor issue?

At the same time, he was also curious, what could the so-called major issue be? “I mentioned before that beings born here, once their cultivation reaches the Immortal Realm, can’t leave!”

“If you reconstruct your Immortal Body here, the effect will be the same, you won’t be able to leave, unless someone like Li Baijie takes you out.”

Hearing the words of Elder Qingfeng, Feng Wanli understood and instantly gave up on the idea of reconstructing his Immortal Body here.

The waters of the Kunlun Realm are so deep, it’s fine not to know, but now that he does, how could he stay any longer?

He doesn’t have Li Cheng’s monstrous talent, it’s still better to go to the Immortal World, where even though he’s just an ordinary disciple, there are so many masters in the sect to take the fall should the sky collapse.

It’s different here; the waters are deadly deep, and if the sky were to collapse, he would have to be the one to prop it up.

“So that’s how it is, thank you for the reminder, senior. I’ll reconstruct my Immortal Body in the Immortal World!” Feng Wanli said with an awkward smile.

Elder Qingfeng nodded, his gaze shifting to Ye Chenfeng, “What about you? As a Loose Immortal, you can also condense an Immortal Body here, and with your strength as a Ten Tribulations Loose Immortal, you’d turn into a True Immortal after condensing it, though you won’t be able to leave either.”

Ye Chenfeng’s eyes lit up, “I’ll consider it.”

Feng Wanli looked at Ye Chenfeng with confusion, shouldn’t he decisively refuse?

Perhaps he didn’t understand the hardships of a Loose Immortal.

After all, in today’s Kunlun Realm, with the Sky-reaching Road and Ascend to Immortal Platform gone, Loose Immortals cannot reach the Immortal World, nor can they condense an Immortal Body.

A day passed, the necrosis surrounding Li Cheng dissipated, and he teemed with vitality once more, slowly opening his eyes, “Five Laws of Death!”

His own estimation wasn’t wrong; with one moment of enlightenment, he really comprehended five Laws of Death.

This was much more potent than any of his previous advancements, mainly because the necrotic essence entwined within the branches underfoot was incredibly dense!

Moreover, with the help of the necrotic essence, his cultivation also reached the mid-Heavenly Immortal stage.

Looking at the branch underfoot, Li Cheng decided that he must chop it down and take it with him!

“Li Cheng, you managed to have an epiphany just like that, did you think it through?” Feng Wanli looked up and called out.

Li Cheng nodded, “Don’t worry!”

As he spoke, Li Cheng activated the Law of Death, and immediately, all the necrotic essence in the great tree surged rapidly towards the branch at his feet!

Previously, he had used the Life Law to repel the necrotic essence, with the necrosis passively fleeing. This time, gathering the necrotic essence with the Law of Death, the essence actively flowed toward him, naturally resulting in a different effect.

Beneath the tree, the three of them clearly saw that the entire platform began to emanate necrosis, like a tide rushing towards Li Cheng’s position.

Within half an hour, the entire Life Divine Tree was vibrant with life, except for the branch under Li Cheng’s feet, where necrotic essence lingered heavily.

Li Cheng sensed for a moment that inside this several meters thick branch, not only was the necrosis profound, but the vitality was also intense, although it was suppressed inward by the necrotic essence.

“It looks like all the necrosis has gathered in that branch, if we chop it down, the problem will be solved,” Ye Chenfeng said, breathing a sigh of relief.

“True, but chopping down such a thick branch is not going to be easy!” Clan Leader Qingfeng said.

Above, Li Cheng had already summoned the Void Snow Sword and slashed towards the branch.

Bang!

To everyone’s surprise, the Void Snow Sword was deflected, and the branch was only chipped on the surface!

See, the Life Divine Tree has grown for billions of years, each branch and leaf is incredibly hard; it’s difficult to chop down!” Elder Qingfeng said with a wry smile.

Li Cheng recalled the Void Snow Sword, looking at the branch and clicking his tongue inwardly, “How many Immortal Artifacts could be made from this branch if used for Artifact Refining?”

Moreover, it contained the essences of life and death. If successfully refined, those two conflicting forces would surely unleash astonishing power and effectiveness.

With this thought, Li Cheng activated the Space Law and Sword Path Rules, and struck fiercely!

The Void Snow Sword this time went half a meter deep, and after a few strikes, it finally cut through!

This branch, being more than three meters thick, seemed like a huge tree unto itself once severed.

Storing it in his Storage Ring, Li Cheng couldn’t help but show a hint of a smile on his face, “Let’s refine a bow first!”

“Benefactor Li, quickly look at the cut, there’s the Life Immortal Liquid bestowed by the Divine Tree, quickly collect it!” Elder Qingfeng’s voice rang out.

Li Cheng looked toward the trunk and, sure enough, a milky-white liquid was slowly oozing from where the branch had just broken off, a rich life essence spreading throughout!

This immortal liquid can mend bones and cleanse marrow; even a mortal who drinks a single drop could revert to youth!”

Listening to Clan Leader Qingfeng’s words, Li Cheng certainly didn’t hold back;

a hundred drops were forming right at the broken spot!

“Why are those fruits starting to shake?”

Li Cheng was busy collecting Life Immortal Liquid when Feng Wanli’s voice rang out.

“Those fruits have been destroyed and can’t birth spirits, so the Life Divine Tree wants to discard them and bear fruit anew,” Clan Leader Qingfeng explained.

Feng Wanli’s eyes lit up, “Even though they can’t birth spirits, the life essence within these fruits is extremely profound; their effects must be no lesser than the Life Immortal Liquid!”

“Hmm, their effects are indeed much stronger than the Life Immortal Liquid, but, who can actually bite into them?” Clan Leader Qingfeng chuckled as he ‘ shook his head.

The shells of these fruits were even harder than the trunk, only naturally opening when ripe.

Li Cheng had already collected the Life Immortal Liquid and flew in front of the three, also turning to look at the swaying fruits, “Can they be planted?”

Haha, Benefactor Li jests. These fruits contain no embryos and can’t be planted,” Clan Leader Qingfeng replied.

Whoosh!

At that moment, all the fruits fell off and flew towards Li Cheng in unison.

“Oh? The fruits are also gifting themselves to Benefactor Li; it seems the Divine Tree is quite fond of you!” Clan Leader Qingfeng laughed.

Three hundred and twelve Life Fruits floated in front of Li Cheng.

Li Cheng collected the fruits and cupped his fists toward the Life Divine Tree, “Thank you!”

“Those damned demon grandsons, knowing full well they can’t defeat us, still rushed to their deaths. It exhausted me to death!” the voice of Monkey Kong Xu rang out.

Bang!

The monkey landed heavily with a big machete, producing a deafening noise. “Eh? It’s settled? What did I miss?” The monkey looked up meanwhile, his gaze on the Life Divine Tree uncertain as it was, now obviously devoid of the pall of death!

“All thanks to Benefactor Li!” Clan Leader Qingfeng smiled.

Following Clan Leader Qingfeng’s gaze, Monkey Kong Xu looked toward Li Cheng, a trace of reverence flashing in his eyes, and coughed lightly, “Brother Li, you’re amazing! Thank you!”

Li Cheng cupped his fists in return, “You flatter me, Handsome Monkey King!”

As the words left his mouth, Li Cheng felt something was amiss; why had he habitually called out ‘Handsome Monkey King’? That sounded too much like sucking up, not his style at all!

Monkey Kong Xu’s eyes sparkled, “Handsome Monkey King? Sounds really good, hehe…”

Clan Leader Qingfeng bowed his hands, “Benefactor Li, esteemed guests, please follow me to Clear Heart Peak…”

‘Hold on, since Brother Li can dispel the death energy, then I must ask for his help!” Monkey Kong Xu urgently interjected.

Clan Leader Qingfeng frowned, “There’s no need to rush this very instant.

Benefactor Li is already tired and should rest first.”

Monkey Kong Xu sized up Li Cheng, who looked hale and hearty enough.

Pausing for a moment, Monkey Kong Xu cupped his fists, “Brother Li, I implore you to assist with my territory!”

“Has it also been corrupted by the death energy?” Li Cheng asked, puzzled.

Monkey Kong Xu nodded, clearly not hiding the expectation in his eyes.

Li Cheng grew more curious, “Has it happened in many places, this corruption by the death energy? Has anyone investigated where this death energy originates from?”

More than ten thousand years ago, when those powerhouses had collectively left, there must not have been such a problem.

The fact that this had happened after the powerhouses departed should have been strange, shouldn’t it?

“Currently, the Demon Human Clan, Kong Xu’s territory, and the Wood Elf Clan are affected. We have investigated, and the source is by the Demon Human Clan,” Clan Leader Qingfeng sighed.

“Li Cheng, this isn’t good, the Ten Thousand Aspects Soul Seal has actually moved!”

This time, Feng Wanli also spoke up, his expression grave.
