Chapter 1094: Giant War Tree! Crystal Coffin!

"Correct."

The little girl Eva nodded and said:

"This Qingmu Marrow can be used to cultivate rare flowers, exotic grasses, or plant life—it's essentially plant holy water.

However, its effect depends on the rank of the War Tree; the highest-grade Qingmu Marrow is even more potent than plant holy water."

"Oh? Did you get all this information from the database Hei Yu gave you?"

Xu Jingming raised his sword-like eyebrows.

"No." Eva shook her head, looking troubled. "I don't know where this information came from. It feels like a lost memory from my past—only now am I recalling it."

"Can an intelligent lifeform forget its memories?" Xu Jingming was stunned.

"Logically, that shouldn't be possible.

I can still recall events from over two hundred years ago with perfect clarity. Could I really have a bug?"

The little girl Eva sank into deep self-doubt.

"If you can't figure it out, forget it—for now. Maybe the reason will turn up later."

Xu Jingming didn't dwell on the issue, falling into thought.

Qingmu Marrow accelerates plant life growth—he had indeed brought the Ironwire Lotus with him in his space ring.

Could this be the opportunity Emos had mentioned?

But just Qingmu Marrow alone—how far could it push the Ironwire Lotus?

Surely it couldn't skyrocket straight to the peak of power?

"Jingming, where are we going next?" Su Qingli asked softly.

"Find the War Tree." Xu Jingming, emerging from thought, his gaze flickered.

This was the only lead now. Whether or not it was truly that opportunity, he had to follow it.

"Eva, what's the difference between the War Tree and ordinary giant trees? How do we find it?"

He placed the Qingmu Marrow into his space ring and looked at Eva.

"The War Tree is extremely skilled at camouflage.

Unless triggered into alertness, it appears indistinguishable from an ordinary giant tree.

If there's any distinguishing feature, it's that War Trees are generally much larger."

"If I had to name a characteristic, it would be that War Trees are generally quite large in size."

It felt strange.

Her mind had held no memories related to the War Tree.

Yet now, information about it surfaced continuously.

"Giant trees that are particularly large?"

Xu Jingming suddenly realized—he shot into the sky and gazed into the distance.

At the edge of his vision stood a colossal tree.

The tree was over two thousand meters tall; its lush branches and leaves blotted out the sky like a vast canopy.

He had noticed this massive tree shortly after entering the secret realm—but had never paid it any attention.

Now, wasn't its size clearly beyond normal limits?

"Jingming, you suspect that tree is also a War Tree?"

Su Qingli flew up, her red lips parting.

"It's unlikely to be wrong." Xu Jingming gazed at the giant tree in awe.

A tree over two thousand meters tall—if it moved, what terrifying scene would unfold?

"Teacher Ling, let's teleport there. Brother, come with us." He spoke.

"Teacher Ling, let's teleport over there first. Senior Brother can come along too." he said.

Ling Shuang nodded slightly, her jade hand flicking lightly—a phantom space gate materialized out of thin air:

"The distance is too great for me to teleport precisely, but I won't be far off."

"No problem—as long as we arrive nearby."

Xu Jingming didn't care—he stepped into the space gate with Su Qingli, Ling Shuang, and the Moonshadow Cleric.

For Xu Jingming, whose physique was now immensely strong, the discomfort of space teleportation had vanished entirely.

One moment his vision darkened, the next it brightened—he arrived at another location.

This place was clearly much closer to the giant tree—only about ten kilometers away.

"Hm? There are others nearby."

With his powerful spiritual force, Xu Jingming instantly sensed several auras within a twenty-kilometer radius.

"Philip from the U. S., the Barton sisters from the EU—didn't expect them to arrive before us."

Through their auras, he identified several individuals with high recognizability.

Though they couldn't recognize the War Tree's origin, having encountered it once,

it wasn't hard for them to deduce that the largest tree in the secret realm might be worth investigating.

"Xu Jingming, come over here and join us."

A deep voice rolled toward them like thunder.

"That's Philip from the U. S. Should we go?" Su Qingli's expression grew solemn.

Philip was a veteran ninth-rank invincible expert; recently, his ability had evolved into an SS-class.

Moreover, backed by the U. S., he had abundant resources—his strength far surpassed that of a ninth-rank peak Tianming Sect cultivator.

Moreover, the opponent is backed by the United States, with abundant resources and strength far beyond that of a ninth-rank peak Tianming Sect cultivator.

"Of course we're going—it's them who fear us, not me who fears them."

Xu Jingming waved his hand, immediately flying over with Su Qingli and the others.

A few seconds later, he saw their group.

These people came from three factions: the United States, the European Union, and the Lei Ding family of the Xinhuo World.

Xu Jingming had stopped using the Concealment Technique.

Thus, when he arrived, everyone present—including Philip of the United States—flinched slightly.

Could Xu Jingming really have broken through to Ninth Stage Upper Tier?!

How could this happen so fast?!

Lu Ke of the Lei Ding family was especially stunned.

Jia Wen, the Lei Ding family's top expert below their supreme elder, had entered the secret realm with him.

He had originally planned to find an opportunity to confront Xu Jingming and erase his past humiliation—but now, there was no chance left.

"Xu Jingming, you must also be here for this giant tree."

"Before we begin exploring, would you like to exchange information first?"

Philip of the United States spoke.

His tone, once haughty, had now softened considerably.

Clearly, he was treating Xu Jingming as an equal-level powerhouse.

"And Moon Shadow Cleric, you may also exchange information with us," he added.

"Our teacher said that in this secret realm, we all follow Younger Brother's lead."

"His stance is my stance—no need to ask me again."

Moon Shadow Cleric smiled calmly.

But upon hearing this, Philip and the others grew grim.

The supreme combat power in this secret realm was undoubtedly the Ninth Stage Invincible with an SS-class ability.

But SS-class abilities were not as common as cabbage.

Currently, only three forces in the Xinhuo World could be counted among them: Xu Jingming of Great Xia, Blood Sword, and Philip of the United States.

All other S-class Ninth Stage Invincibles fell short.

Now, Moon Shadow Cleric of the Xinhuo Temple was obeying Xu Jingming's orders—this was not good news for them.

"Information exchange is fine, but I'll hear your information first," Xu Jingming did not refuse.

"Agreed."

Philip agreed readily.

And as Xu Jingming had anticipated, the facts were true.

They had accidentally encountered a mobile giant tree within this secret realm, prompting them to come here.

"Also, we've already made some discoveries—look at the treetop."

Philip revealed another piece of information.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jingming's heart stirred, and his spiritual force surged forth.

They were now at an altitude of over two thousand meters.

Below lay the giant tree's lush branches and leaves, stretching over thirty kilometers.

Naturally, the naked eye could not discern the scene below—but under spiritual force scanning, everything beneath the leaves was laid bare.

At the very center of the massive canopy lay a crystal coffin.

Inside the crystal coffin rested a woman, slender and elegant, with a cold, stunning beauty.

She wore a white long gown made of unknown material and had long green hair.

Most striking were her ears—unlike those of ordinary humans, they were pointed!

She looked entirely like an elf from Western mythology—sacred and beautiful.
