Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 862 - 863 Divine Tree Trial

Hearing what Ye Zhan implied, many of the Martial Artists present were likely here for the sacred tree trial.

"Brother Chu didn’t know?"

Sitting opposite Chu Fengmian, the younger sister of the Ye siblings, Ye Ya, spoke with some surprise.

The matter of the sacred tree trial is something that most Martial Artists in the Central Domain know about. Many of the Martial Artists present came for this sacred tree trial.

Unexpectedly, Chu Fengmian didn’t know.

"Brother Chu is a Martial Artist from the Western Domain, so it’s normal not to know. Most of the Martial Artists participating in the sacred tree trial indeed come from the Central Domain,"

Ye Zhan explained.

"This sacred tree trial is actually an event that the Ancient Desolate Sect has only held in the past century. Any Martial Artist from the Nine Domains can participate and enter the sacred tree mystic realm."

"In this sacred tree mystic realm, there are countless treasures. Martial Artists who enter can obtain these treasures as long as they pass the trials within."

"If these treasures are obtained by Martial Artists, the Ancient Desolate Sect will not interfere. This is what attracts countless Martial Artists to come,"

Ye Zhan said with a smile.

The Ancient Desolate Sect has actually opened the sacred tree mystic realm?

Chu Fengmian listened to what Ye Zhan said, with a few traces of surprise in his eyes.

The sacred tree mystic realm, ten thousand years ago, was an absolute secret within the Ancient Desolate Sect, only accessible to the sect’s geniuses.

Unexpectedly, it is now open.

And the treasures within, as long as a Martial Artist obtains them, the Ancient Desolate Sect will not interfere?

Considering the personalities of those old antiques of the Ancient Desolate Sect, when did they start doing things at a loss?

"Then doesn’t this mean that all the treasures in the sacred tree mystic realm are obtained by other Martial Artists? The Ancient Desolate Sect won’t intervene?" freewebnøvel_com

Chu Fengmian asked with some astonishment.

"Obtaining treasures is not that easy."

Upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Ye Zhan said with a smile.

"Although there are many treasures in the sacred tree mystic realm, the dangers far outnumber the treasures. It is said that some tree spirits are hidden within, many of which have reached the life and death realm. Some of the more powerful ones are enough to rival our ancestors."

"Once a Martial Artist enters, they will be attacked by tree spirits. Almost all of the treasures are guarded by tree spirits, so one must fight these tree spirits to obtain the treasures."

"Basically, of the Martial Artists who enter the sacred tree mystic realm each time, only less than one in ten survive, and even fewer than one in a hundred gain any rewards. How could a sect like the Ancient Desolate Sect let go of benefits for nothing?"

Ye Zhan slowly spoke.

"According to rumors, it is actually because the number of tree spirits in the sacred tree mystic realm has increased to the point where even the Ancient Desolate Sect can’t handle them, so they’re using the treasures in the realm to attract Martial Artists to come."

After hearing all this, Chu Fengmian nodded.

Indeed, in his mind, the Ancient Desolate Sect would never do such unprofitable business.

This Divine Tree, as a branch of the ancient Jianmu tree, contains immense power. It is said that numerous powerful beings in heaven and earth were born from the Jianmu.

Since this Divine Tree has inherited the power of Jianmu and nurtured tree spirits, it is not surprising.

If these tree spirits have entities surpassing the level of life and death ancestors, the Ancient Desolate Sect’s actions are understandable.

Even to the Ancient Desolate Sect, any elder is extremely valuable. If they were killed by tree spirits, it would cause them pain for a long time.

So now, the Ancient Desolate Sect is using the treasures of the sacred tree mystic realm as bait to attract Martial Artists to deal with these tree spirits.

Despite the known dangers, the treasures in the sacred tree mystic realm still attract countless fearless Martial Artists, who enter it for the chance of opportunity.

This change, although unexpected to Chu Fengmian, is advantageous to him.

If Chu Fengmian wants to acquire the Jade Dew Sacred Fruit, he must get close to the Divine Tree. If the Divine Tree is still a sacred object of the Ancient Desolate Sect as before, it would be much more difficult for Chu Fengmian to get close.

In comparison, now it’s much easier for Chu Fengmian. If he participates in the sacred tree trial, he can enter the sacred tree mystic realm.

Then he can search for the Jade Dew Sacred Fruit.

"What has Brother Chu decided? Will you participate in this sacred tree trial?"

Ye Zhan, seeing Chu Fengmian silent, assumed he was contemplating the dangers, and spoke with a smile.

"The treasures of the sacred tree trial are tempting, but if they cost you your life, they are not worth it. After all, it’s so dangerous, Brother Chu should think it over."

"Since I’m here, of course, I want to participate."

Chu Fengmian nodded, his eyes revealing a bit of seriousness.

"I came to the Central Domain to train myself. Such a good opportunity can’t be missed."

"That’s good, with Brother Chu accompanying us, we have a friend in the sacred tree mystic realm."

Ye Ya spoke with a bit of a smile as she looked at Chu Fengmian.

"It’s useless. Once we enter the sacred tree mystic realm, we might not even meet. All Martial Artists are transported to different areas, making encounters rare."

Ye Zhan shook his head.

"Brother Chu, please be careful. The dangers in the sacred tree mystic realm are not just the tree spirits."

"Um."

Chu Fengmian replied in a low voice.

In trials like this, while external dangers are substantial, the real greatest threat is often the Martial Artists themselves.

In any trial, killing among Martial Artists is quite common.

The sacred tree trial is no exception.

"Ya’er, if you encounter danger, just leave. Don’t get entangled."

Ye Zhan turned his head and spoke to Ye Ya.

"Don’t worry, brother."

Ye Ya smiled, seemingly not taking Ye Zhan’s words to heart, which left Ye Zhan a bit helpless but he didn’t say more.

During this conversation, many Martial Artists in the teahouse had gotten up and left.

The entire teahouse quickly became much quieter.

"The sacred tree trial is about to start, let’s go."

Ye Zhan packed his things, got up, and walked out of the teahouse.

Chu Fengmian also stood up, following Ye Zhan, and left the teahouse. Shortly after, they arrived at a plaza.
