Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality-Chapter 537: Holy Tree

"Holy Tree?"

Lu Yang's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the wooden talisman.

"Isn't that the body of the Time Immortal?"

People often misidentify rare objects as "immortal" items. For example, they call the Little Medicine King "immortal herb," an extraordinary sword "immortal sword," and incomprehensible techniques "immortal arts."

But in reality, neither the Little Medicine King nor the extraordinary sword reaches the level of "immortal."

The Holy Tree is different; it is undoubtedly an immortal object, beyond dispute.

"This Immortal knew this thing looked familiar. It must be a part of the Time Immortal, just a smaller piece. Otherwise, I would have recognized it immediately!"

Among the current generation, no one is more familiar with the Time Immortal than the Immortal Fairy.

Lu Yang's expression turned strange as he asked, "So how did this small piece of the Holy Tree come about? Did the Time Immortal scrape it off like dead skin?"

The body of an immortal is indestructible. Who could cut off a piece of wood from the Time Immortal?

The Immortal Fairy glanced disdainfully at Lu Yang. "Impossible. An immortal's body is flawless, unlike mortals who have dead skin."

"Then this small piece of the Holy Tree..."

"Maybe I blasted it off."

Lu Yang: "..."

"Or it could have been Heavenly Immortal Ying and the others. After all, before the Time Immortal became an immortal, he claimed he would definitely ascend, while the rest wouldn't. This angered many, and after he ascended, Heavenly Immortal Ying and the others often took cheap shots at him."

"But this piece of wood is too small for me to tell who did it."

"If I remember correctly, didn't the Time Immortal only say that to you, Immortal Fairy? And you passed it on to Heavenly Immortal Ying and the others."

The Immortal Fairy waved her hand, instructing Lu Yang, "The outcome is the same. Don't dwell on it. You need to learn from this Immortal in such matters."

"Also, ask that little girl if she has more pieces of the Holy Tree."

If Shangguan Yu could give Lu Yang a small piece, it meant she had more.

"Sister Shangguan, may I ask what this is? I've never seen it before," Lu Yang asked politely.

"You haven't seen it, right? This is just a small piece. The larger one is beneath the Wood Vein, a charred giant tree. The vitality of the Wood Vein comes from that giant tree. Our sect's founder was shocked when he discovered it."

"The giant tree's vitality can sustain the Wood Vein for ten thousand years without waning, showing its immense power."

"The founder also noted that the vitality within the giant tree was beyond comprehension, surpassing anything recorded in ancient texts."

"So the founder made a bold guess: this is a part of the Wood Immortal's body!"

In today's world of cultivation, the Time Immortal is known as the Wood Immortal, as he transformed from a tree.

"Wood Immortal?!" Everyone exclaimed, including Bai Ming, who had never heard of this and didn't know the Wood Vein's vitality came from a giant tree.

"Sister Shangguan."

"Sister Shangguan."

Upon learning that Lu Yang held a piece of the legendary Wood Immortal, everyone started calling her Sister Shangguan, even Bai Ming.

"Now you call me? Too late." Shangguan Yu turned her head to hide her smile.

Then she turned back, seriously saying, "You need to call me a few more times."

The chorus of "Sister Shangguan" made Shangguan Yu beam with joy.

"Here, each of you take one. It will protect you. Little Bai Ming, you too."

Shangguan Yu took out five small wooden talismans and distributed them.

"Protection?" Lu Yang remembered that when Meng Jingzhou suffered from karmic backlash, the Immortal Fairy said the Time Immortal could ward off evil and prevent karmic backlash.

If the Time Immortal's body was effective for protection, why did Qiu Jin'an seek the power of a nation's fate from the Governor of Wild State?

He entered his mental space, intending to ask the Immortal Fairy, only to see her making a decision and expanding her immortal sense.

Initially, the Immortal Fairy hesitated, wondering if this would offend the Five Elements Sect. But Shangguan Yu's reminder aligned with Lu Yang's thoughts, and she couldn't worry about offending anyone.

She immediately expanded her immortal sense, scanning the Wood Vein, and indeed found the giant tree Shangguan Yu mentioned.

The giant tree was enormous, spanning the entire Wood Vein. Although Lu Yang and the others could easily walk around the Five Veins, they were near the intersection, shortening the distance.

In reality, the Five Elements Sect's area was only slightly smaller than the Seek Tao Sect, covering eighty thousand miles. The Five Veins were the sect's core, so the Wood Vein was vast, and the giant tree spanning it was incredibly long.

But compared to the towering Holy Tree in the Immortal Fairy's memory, this giant tree was much shorter, even stunted.

The Immortal Fairy condensed the image of the giant tree in her mental space.

The tree was charred black, with fire and lightning scars, and its old bark had peeled off in layers. One attack had even pierced its core.

"What happened?" Lu Yang was shocked. Even as an outsider, he could sense the severity of the attacks on the giant tree.

The Immortal Fairy was silent for a moment before speaking slowly, her playful tone gone. "The Time Immortal was attacked. The attacker used common methods to hide their identity."

"At first, I thought this was when I self-destructed, and the Time Immortal used techniques like 'Revival of the Withered Tree' and 'Golden Cicada Shedding' to leave a clone and escape. But that's not right. Heavenly Immortal Ying said not to leave clones in the world, as they could be a blessing or a curse. So this shouldn't be a clone."

"Seeing this piece of the Holy Tree, I'm certain it's the Time Immortal's body, and a large part of it has turned to nothingness!"

The Immortal Fairy couldn't recall such a severe battle during her lifetime.

This was a battle at the level of an immortal's fall.

"After this Immortal's death, the Time Immortal fought a great battle against an extremely powerful opponent."

The Time Immortal, who controlled the Dao of Time, could observe the past, foresee the future, and restore his body to an uninjured state. Despite this, he was still severely injured, showing the opponent's immense power and terror.

Lu Yang's heart trembled. "The Time Immortal... has passed away?"

The Immortal Fairy slowly shook her head. "It's uncertain. An immortal's life force is stronger than you can imagine. Even without a body, they can survive. But in this state, even if the Time Immortal is alive, he's not in good shape."

"The Time Immortal is different from this Immortal. With the Immortal Dao fruit, I can create a new body to house my immortal soul. But the Time Immortal can't. An immortal's body is crucial, and it's hard to find anything in the world that can replace or rebuild it."

With the Time Immortal's body in such a state, his life and death unknown, how could he protect and bless?

The second update will be at eleven o'clock.
