Chapter 2882

Zhang Tianzhen, like the other fellow disciples, also took a liking to a tree ghost; although he had just established a connection with it, that tree ghost eagerly said, wanting to try.

Entities: Zhang Tianzhen, Tree Ghost - but Tree Ghost is in the glossary as "Tree Ghost". Also "other fellow disciples" is generic.

Let's be like them just now.

Huh? Just like before? Who?

Let's have a fight; whoever wins gets to decide.

Huh?

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianzhen's face darkened instantly; you damn well, why would you learn from anyone else? You insist on learning from Qin Fengzi.

Entities: Zhang Tianzhen, Qin Fengzi - but Qin Fengzi is a nickname? It's a person? It seems referring to a person named Qin Fengzi? Could be a person. Not in glossary. We'll need to add. "Qin Fengzi" pinyin: Qin Fengzi? Actually "madman" means madman, but as a nickname maybe "Qin Fengzi". We'll treat as a name: Qin Fengzi.

Zhang Tianzhen glanced at Qin Shanhai, whose mouth corner still bore traces of blood, and his own mouth corner twitched as he spoke.

Entities: Qin Shanhai, Zhang Tianzhen.

I'm a formation master; I'm not good at fighting. If you want to fight me, go find another tree.

Zhang Tianzhen's thought was simple: there are plenty of tree ghosts here, and he doesn't seek to pick one with top-tier strength.

Entities: Zhang Tianzhen, Tree Ghost.

After all, even an ordinary tree ghost is enough to guarantee his safety; besides, he, someone named Zhang, is a formation master who doesn't usually fight to the death, so it's better to pick

Entities: someone named Zhang (someone named Zhang? Actually "someone named Zhang" is a placeholder meaning "someone named Zhang". Not a specific name. Probably not needed as named entity. We'll ignore.

They were all planning to give up, but this tree spirit just casually replied.

Entities: tree spirit.

Well then, forget it, let's just start.

What the heck?

Before Zhang Tianzhen could regain his senses, this tree spirit instantly turned into a sapling, entered his body, and acknowledged him as its master.

Entities: Zhang Tianzhen, tree spirit.

Just moments ago we were about to have a fierce battle, and you gave up so easily?

No.

Zhang Tianzhen instinctively felt that something was off with his tree pet, but seeing the mark slowly appearing on his palm, he could only reluctantly accept it.

Entities: Zhang Tianzhen, tree pet (Tree Pet? Not in glossary; but "tree pet" maybe a term meaning "tree pet". Not a named entity; it's a common noun. We'll not list.

What else can we do after acknowledging the master?

No.

At the same time, aside from Qin Shanhe and Zhang Tianzhen—these few people with their own reasons—everyone else, after subduing their tree pets, simultaneously tried to subdue a second tree pet.

Entities: Qin Shanhe, Zhang Tianzhen, tree pet.

After all, you can never have too many of these.

No.

In response, Xu Jie naturally saw it, but at first paid no attention; they're all from the same lineage, who doesn't know whom? Having some thoughts is normal, after all, it's impossible to succeed anyway.

Entities: Xu Jie.

He just waited for everyone else to finish, leaving only Second Elder Shi Song still there refusing to give up, and Xu Jie couldn't help but say.

He just waited for everyone else to finish, leaving only Second Elder Shi Song still there refusing to give up, and Xu Jie couldn't help but say. Probably missing a character but we have entities: Second Elder, Shi Song, Xu Jie.

"Second Elder, that's enough; you know it's impossible, yet you still..."

Entities: Second Elder.

However, before Xu Jie could finish, Shi Song directly interrupted.

Entities: Xu Jie, Shi Song.

"How will you know if you don't try? There are only three left, don't rush."

No.

"Huh? You've tried them all already?"

No.

Hearing Shi Song's words, Xu Jie's face fell into a complex expression—what determination! He had tested every tree spirit present? Your heart is really dark.

Entities: Shi Song, Xu Jie, tree spirit.

With that, you still oversee the Law Enforcement Hall—where's your shame?

Entities: Law Enforcement Hall.

Shi Song has been in charge of sect punishments from the Dao Yi Sect, through the Dao Yi Holy Land, to the present Dao Yi Immortal Sect.

Entities: Shi Song, Dao Yi Sect, Dao Yi Holy Land, Dao Yi Immortal Sect.

But now Xu Jie increasingly feels that this old thing, compared to his own master, is hardly inferior.

Entities: Xu Jie, master.

Letting such a person handle sect punishments would be inappropriate.

No named.

However, Shi Song paid no attention to these concerns, stubbornly testing the last three tree spirits, coughing up several mouthfuls of blood, confirming he couldn't subdue a second one, and thus resignedly withdrew his hand.

Entities: Shi Song, tree spirit.

"Let's go, I'm done."

No.

"Finally, it's over."

No.

"What do you mean, kid?"

No.

After arranging for Qin Shanhe, Shi Song and those peak masters and elders to leave quietly, Xu Jie then sought out the inner disciples of each peak.

Entities: Qin Shanhe, Shi Song, peak master, elder, Xu Jie, various peaks, inner disciple.

These are also fellow sect brothers, naturally needing to be arranged first.

No.

Jade Maiden Peak's Zhao Rou and Zhong Ling.

Entities: Jade Maiden Peak, Zhao Rou, Zhong Ling.

Dragon Elephant Peak's Wanxiang, Literature Academy Peak's Shen Xian...

Entities: Dragon Elephant Peak, Wanxiang, Wenyuan Peak, Shen Xian.

Upon hearing Xu Jie's talk of a great opportunity, the fellow brothers couldn't wait and came in batches to the fire chamber courtyard.

Entities: Xu Jie, fire room.

However, to many disciples, these tree spirits from the Black Mist Forest seemed inferior, like misshapen melons and cracked dates.

Entities: Black Mist Forest, tree spirit.

But the disciples' persuasive skills were so strong that a few words left these tree spirits bewildered.

Entities: tree spirit.

What's wrong with low cultivation? I've got huge potential!

No.

What's wrong with poor talent? I have plenty of resources!

No.

Want to eat? If so, come over.

No.

Thus, the many fellow brothers harvested another batch of tree pets.

Entities: tree pet.

After that, it was just a bunch of stewards.

Entities: steward.

Of course, the people Xu Jie chose have all followed the sect, coming up from the lower realm, and were already elders within the sect during the Dao Yi Sect era.

Entities: Xu Jie, sect, lower realm, Dao Yi Sect.

They belong to the founding shareholder level of the Dao Yi Immortal Sect, so their loyalty to the sect is unquestionable.

Entities: Dao Yi Immortal Sect, sect.

As for disciples recruited only after arriving in the immortal realm, such an opportunity naturally isn't for them.

Entities: immortal realm, disciple.

This is a major matter, so we can only rely on our own people first; at this point, it's not about cultivation strength.

No.

Finally, only a few tree spirits remained in the courtyard.

Entities: courtyard, tree spirit.

These tree spirits were left by Xu Jie for Yun Xiantai, Qi Xiong, and Hong Zun.

Entities: tree spirit, Xu Jie, Yun Xiantai, Qi Xiong, Hong Zun.

However, these weren't deliberately chosen by Xu Jie; rather, these few tree spirits chose themselves.

Entities: Xu Jie, tree spirit.

These few tree spirits are very strong; each one's strength is not inferior to that of the Hundred Flowers Fairy's.

Entities: tree spirit, Hundred Flowers Fairy.

Being so strong, they are naturally arrogant; ordinary disciples look down on them, and even Qin Shanhe, Shi Song, and those elders and peak masters remain unmoved.

Entities: Qin Shanhe, Shi Song, elder, peak master.

Thus they remained until the end; seeing this, Xu Jie felt helpless but could do nothing, after all these tree spirits had never paid him any heed.

Entities: Xu Jie, tree spirit.

Through his tree pet's message, Xu Jie received only a simple reply.

Entities: Xu Jie, tree pet.

"They're not worthy."

No.

Then there was nothing more.

No.

I don't know whether Shīzūn and the others can subdue these few Tree Ghosts, but this is not something he can worry about; he can only watch Shīzūn and the others' own abilities.

The matter is basically over, but so many Tree Ghosts have vanished out of thin air; even if the Heavenly Palace were a fool, it would have noticed.

One day, two Heavenly Officials from the Heavenly Palace unexpectedly arrived outside the Fire Room courtyard.

Looking at the courtyard that had originally been completely sealed off by those Tree Ghosts from the Black Mist Forest, now only a few scattered plants remained, and the two Heavenly Officials were full of doubt.

What about the Tree Ghosts?

Where did they go?

I don't know.

Really strange, in the blink of an eye, only these few remain?

It couldn't be that the Dao One Immortal Sect people were up to something, could it? I always feel there's something going on here.

Most likely.

The first suspect is the Dao One Immortal Sect; after all, from understanding other forces in the Immortal Realm, it's hard to put this sect into words.

Many forces from the Immortal Realm share the same view of the Dao One Immortal Sect: this sect is shady, with serious problems.

But as for the specific problems, opinions differ, and it's not clear.

But the more this is the case, the more it shows that the Dao One Immortal Sect has problems, serious problems.

Now, with so many Tree Ghosts missing, the Dao One Immortal Sect cannot escape responsibility.

The Heavenly Palace began a secret investigation; soon it was discovered that members of the Dao One Immortal Sect had secretly come in batches to the Fire Room courtyard.

It wasn't difficult at all, and this only deepened the suspicion toward the Dao One Immortal Sect.

Immediately, the Heavenly Palace followed the clues and successfully saw Qin Shanhai battling a Tree Ghost, eyes widening.
