Chapter 4097: Is it a Tree or a Demon?

lly seeing the nine medicine puppets transform into nine beams of light rushing towards the Jiuyi Sect first, made them come to their senses. They also had a glimmer of hope for survival in their hear...Looking at the endless jungle below, with its countless lush trees, Jiang Yun couldn't help but admire: "It's truly magnificent!"

No one would have thought that the Mu family would plant the Spirit Tree, a sacred relic, outside their own home and instead grow it in the midst of the jungle.

Hide the spirit tree among countless trees, like concealing a drop of water within a vast lake.

This way, it is naturally able to protect the safety of the spirit tree to the greatest extent.

Just like now, even though Mu Zhengjun has already told Jiang Yun that the Spirit Tree is in the forest, Jiang Yun can only find it if he patiently searches for it one by one.

However, the spirit tree is so far away from the Mu family, yet it can still bless them. From this point of view, we can also see how abundant the spiritual power of the spirit tree is.

However, Jiang Yun also had some doubts: "I see there is no protection here, and it seems that there are no Mu people here. Isn't there a fear that someone will harm the Spirit Tree"

Mu Zhengjun smiled and said, "No, if we don't say anything, no one will know which one is the spirit tree."

Even if someone wanted to set the jungle on fire, unless they had flames as powerful as those of Dongfang Xiaoyou, they wouldn't be able to do it.

Of course, if the Spirit Tree is ever in danger, it will notify us immediately, and we will rush to its aid.

However, this situation is almost impossible.

"Though the Ling Tree is a sacred object to my Mu family, it benefits not only us but a vast region."

Therefore, even if someone has a grudge against our Mu family, they wouldn't dare to harm the Spirit Tree.

Ginger Cloud nodded in understanding. The abundance of wood energy represents vitality and is beneficial to all things.

Destroying the Spirit Tree and weakening the life force of this area would be a harmful act that benefits no one. Surely, no one would do such a thing.

After a few moments of flying through the air, Molo pointed down and said, "We're here."

Ginger followed the direction Mu Luo pointed, but she still couldn't find the spirit tree.

Although Gingercloud already knew what the Spirit Tree looked like, all the trees planted in the area below were identical, making it impossible to tell which one was the Spirit Tree.

However, Ginger Cloud at this moment, was slightly frowning.

Because he didn't sense any demonic energy!

If there were no Emperor Tuyu, then Jiang Yun would absolutely be the most powerful alchemist in the world today, with an extremely keen sense of demonic energy.

But at such close proximity, Jiang Yun still couldn't sense any demonic energy. There were only two possibilities.

One possibility is that the Ling Tree's power surpasses Jiang Yun's, allowing it to perfectly conceal its demonic aura, rendering it undetectable by Jiang Yun.

And another possibility is that this area has no demons, and the Spirit Tree remains merely a tree with a touch of spirituality, without evolving into a demon at all.

No matter which possibility it was, it wasn't good news for Jiang Yun.

Ginger Cloud didn't voice her feelings, but silently followed behind Wood Luo and the others, arriving in the jungle. She stood before a large tree.

This tree is not very tall, only three or four zhang high, but its branches are luxuriant and its leaves are plentiful.

At first glance, there is nothing particularly special about it.

If it weren't for the respectful expressions on Mu Luo and the others' faces, Jiang Yunzhen would have suspected they were deceiving him.

Mùzhèngjūn also spoke, "Dōngfāng, this is the spirit tree of my clan!"

Ginger nodded, her gaze falling upon the Spirit Tree. She released her divine sense and carefully sensed it.

However, after a moment, his face once again betrayed disappointment.

Because, he still hadn't discovered anything special, and he didn't feel any trace of demonic energy.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Yun turned to Mu Zhengjun and said: "Master Mu, forgive my ignorance, is there any special way to observe the noble family's spirit tree"

Mu Zhengjun smiled and said: "That's right, you need to touch the spirit tree with your hand and release your divine sense before you can feel the uniqueness of the spirit tree."

Jiang Yun suddenly realized and looked at Mu Luo again: "Chief Mu, can I touch the Spirit Tree"

Mu Luo nodded and said, "Of course."

Jiang Yun cupped his hands in a salute towards the Spirit Tree before walking towards it.

And this action of his also made Mu Luo and the others show expressions of relief. The look in their eyes when they looked at Jiang Yun was much gentler.

Standing before the Ling tree, Jiang Yun extended his hand and gently placed it on the trunk of the Ling tree, releasing his divine sense.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a sound like an explosion echoed faintly in Ginger Cloud's mind.

A boundless sense of vicissitudes emanated from the tree trunk, surging forth in an instant and enveloping Jiang Yun's body, submerging him completely.

This vicissitudes, through ages, made Jiang Yun only feel that in this moment, he seemed to have already lived through a thousand years.

Jiang Yun raised his head again. The spirit tree that had been unremarkable before was now towering, stretching high beyond sight.

That lush foliage, even more so, spread out like the sky and earth, extending endlessly into the distance. It seemed to cover the entire surrounding area, hiding everything within its embrace.

Ginger clouds before him were as insignificant as a grain of sand on the vast sea.

Of course, the area covered by the divine consciousness released by Ginger Cloud was pitifully small.

Next, waves upon waves of mighty wooden energy surged out and poured into Jiang Yun's body, transforming into boundless vitality.

Jiang Yun could clearly sense that if there were any injuries in his body, they should recover quickly under the influx of these wood powers.

At this moment, the Ling tree gave Jiang Yun the feeling of becoming a wizened old man, like one of his elders, nourishing his body in a way that was gentle and nurturing, just like spring rain.

This is the true Ling Tree, regarded as a sacred object by the people of the Mu family.

Although Jiang Yun was also shocked by the huge difference Ling Shu had brought him, he didn't forget his purpose.

His powerful divine sense suddenly expanded to its limit. Though it couldn't compare to the size of the Spirit Tree, it was much larger than before. Within the Spirit Tree, he carefully searched for demonic energy.

However, after a long time, Ginger Cloud's face had become extremely gloomy.

Because I still haven't sensed the slightest trace of demonic energy.

At this point, Jiang Yun believed that even if the spirit tree's strength was immense and its size enormous, it would be impossible to conceal demonic energy so perfectly that he couldn't detect it.

That must be the second possibility, this spirit tree never became a demon at all!

At this moment, Jiang Yun truly fell into a profound state of confusion.

The cold snort that came from Mu Ming's body was definitely real.

Not only could he hear it himself, but Mok Jeong-yun could also hear it clearly.

Needless to say, the massive amount of wood power within Mokume's body appeared precisely to prevent him from helping Mokume reshape his body.

This behavior, coupled with a clearly hostile snort, could only come from the roots of the Ling tree. It can only mean that the Ling tree has become a demon.

But now the Spirit Tree is right in front of him. As a powerful demon refiner comparable to a celestial being, he can be absolutely sure that the Spirit Tree does not emit any trace of demonic energy and has not transformed into a demon!

What is going on here

"Are you a tree or a demon"

"One more try!"

Jiang Yun gritted his teeth, the palm pressed against the Ling tree trunk, quietly gathering spiritual energy into a talisman for subduing demons. It silently sank into the Ling tree.

Jiang Yun struck out with the Fu Yao Seal, naturally not to subdue the Spirit Tree.

Because the Fu Yao Yin is more sensitive to demonic energy, if a Ling Shu is a demon, it will definitely trigger a reaction from the Fu Yao Yin.

It's a pity that the Fu Yao Yin entered Ling Shu's body like a stone sinking into the sea, not even causing a ripple.

After waiting in silence for a while, Jiang Yun could finally be sure that the Ling Tree had truly not become a demon.

However, just as Jiang Yun was about to retract his palm, the towering spirit tree in his eyes suddenly shook slightly.

In this shaking, within the spirit-consciousness of Ginger Cloud still residing in the Ling Tree's body, there was something that appeared faintly...llion Emperor Origin Stones are now all within this storage artifact.This imperial source stone is like finding it for free, might as well take a big gamble."This bloodstone here, it costs 10,000 piec...
