Chapter 780: Tree Demon's Wish

Since that treasure wanted to play hide-and-seek, Ye Liuyun simply stopped looking and waited for it to come to him on its own.

The old tree in the courtyard was lush with branches and leaves, a path had formed beneath it, and he happened to be sitting right under it.

Ye Liuyun chose to sit under the tree because he felt that this old tree harbored a powerful force, yet even his Golden Pupil could not see what was inside.

If it weren't for his strong Divine Sense, he probably wouldn't have noticed anything unusual about this old tree.

Ye Liuyun planned to wait a while longer; if there was still no movement, he would directly split the tree open to check what was inside.

"Ah!"

A sigh suddenly came from the old tree behind Ye Liuyun.

"Boring! Young man, you lack patience!"

Even though Ye Liuyun was mentally prepared, he still jumped at the sudden voice behind his back.

"A Tree Demon?" Ye Liuyun immediately stood up, looked at the old tree, and asked.

An old man walked out of the big tree, nodded his head at Ye Liuyun, thereby acknowledging his identity.

"Are you here to look for treasure?" the Tree Demon old man asked.

"Not bad!" Ye Liuyun didn't hide it, directly admitted, "Please give me your guidance, senior!"

Even though he is a Tree Demon, he is the master of this place. Since we don't know who is friend or foe, Ye Liuyun dared not be negligent; it's better to be courteous before resorting to force.

The old man pointed to the wooden chair, indicating for Ye Liuyun to sit down.

He himself was not polite either, directly sat down, apparently wanting to chat with Ye Liuyun.

Seeing that he had no hostility, Ye Liuyun immediately sat down as well to listen to what he had to say.

"I have been trapped in this Secret Realm for who knows how many years. Have you noticed that the spiritual aura here is about to run out?" the Tree Demon asked Ye Liuyun.

Only after his question did Ye Liuyun realize that the spiritual aura here was indeed thin.

His attention had been focused on the treasure, so he hadn't paid much attention to the density of the spiritual aura here.

"Just now, when you said that, I realized that the spiritual aura here is indeed thin." Ye Liuyun replied respectfully.

"Yes! So I want to move out of here to a place with abundant spiritual aura." After saying that, the Tree Demon stopped and looked at Ye Liuyun.

"Senior, do you want me to take you out?" Ye Liuyun guessed the old man's intention.

The Tree Demon nodded and said, "Not only do I want you to take me out, but also to move the whole little island out to find a place with sufficient spiritual aura to settle down!"

Afterward, the Tree Demon added, "My kind of tree is mild-natured and harmless to humans and beasts; you can rest assured."

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and asked, "What if I can do it?"

He wasn't here to help people; he was here to look for treasure. Without a treasure, he didn't want to just go around doing good deeds.

"The treasure here is the fruit of this tree, which bears fruit only once every ten thousand years."

That old man obviously wanted to use the fruit of this tree to trade with Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun glanced at the old tree beside him. He truly didn't recognize what kind of tree it was.

So he had to ask, "I don't know what the fruit you mentioned is called, senior. I'm inexperienced; please forgive my ignorance."

"Haha! You little brat are quite straightforward." The old man wasn't displeased; on the contrary, he felt Ye Liuyun spoke his mind frankly, which was admirable.

"My tree looks ordinary, but actually few people have seen it, and most don't know its name. If it's the fruit, perhaps an expert could recognize it!" The old man boasted to himself.

Ye Liuyun could only go along with him, saying, "Please enlighten me, senior! Also, how many fruits do you have in total?"

"Alright, I won't make you guess; I'll just tell you! Let's see if you know the use of this fruit."

The Tree Demon paused, then said word by word: "This tree is called the Wan Hua Jin Ling Tree, and its fruit is called the Wan Hua Jin Ling Fruit."

"I only have one fruit right now. But if you knew how precious it is, you would definitely not complain about the scarcity. If it weren't for the insufficient spiritual aura here, there should have been two!" the Tree Demon said with some regret.

"Is this the Wan Hua Jin Ling Fruit used for cultivating a clone?" Ye Liuyun blurted out.

He never expected to encounter such a rare treasure here.

He originally thought he would have to go to the Central Continent to possibly encounter such a thing.

"Hmm, you kid do have some discernment! Although our Wan Hua Jin Ling Tree isn't especially precious, its numbers are extremely scarce. As far as I know, the whole continent has only five or six such trees. After all these years, with the continent fracturing, I don't know if the other trees are still alive..."

As the Tree Demon spoke, he drifted off, seeming to fall into memories.

Ye Liuyun also felt a bit dazed. Encountering the Wan Hua Jin Ling Fruit here made him feel somewhat incredulous.

The entire continent originally had only five or six of these fruit trees.

Adding those that have been destroyed, it's truly possible that only this one remains!

And that Wan Hua Jin Ling Fruit might very well be the last one!

"Rarity makes value." The value of this Wan Hua Jin Ling Tree and its fruit is already immeasurable!

After a while, both came back to their senses.

"Alright. I promise you. I will move you and this island into my Space World. Inside, the spiritual aura is abundant, enough for you to continue surviving."

Ye Liuyun directly agreed.

"You, at only the Yin Yang Five Layers realm, have built your own Space World?"

Upon hearing that, the Tree Demon's eyes lit up, but since he had just come into contact with Ye Liuyun, he still had some doubts about him.

"My realm may not be high, but my spatial power is not weak. Senior, if you don't believe me, you can go see for yourself!"

Ye Liuyun also knew that mere words wouldn't convince him; it would be better to let him see for himself.

The Tree Demon hesitated for a moment. After all, entering someone else's Space World would mean being under their control, and he might not be able to get out!

"Senior, if you don't believe me, we can first sign a Divine Soul Contract!"

Ye Liuyun also worried that the Tree Demon might attack his Space World, so he simply proposed signing a contract, which would provide security for both parties.

"All right!" the Tree Demon also agreed to this approach.

Thus the two signed the contract, guaranteeing they would not harm each other. Then Ye Liuyun brought the Tree Demon into the Space World.

Inside there were Gathering Spirit Trees, and the Primordial Power was abundant. The ferocious beasts inside were not particularly aggressive.

After looking around, the Tree Demon felt very satisfied.

So after they came out, the Tree Demon began arranging to move the entire island inside.

They two signed a Divine Soul Contract again. Ye Liuyun had the Tree Demon move the entire island inside, providing the Tree Demon with a living environment.

The Tree Demon then handed over the Wan Hua Jin Ling Fruit to Ye Liuyun. Moreover, not only this fruit, but all future fruits it bears will also be given to Ye Liuyun.

In this way, the two reached an agreement to move the entire island into Ye Liuyun's Space World.
