Under the old man's lead, Ye Tian entered Savage Forest. Everywhere he looked was filled with towering ancient trees and countless strange flowers and herbs.

"Fellow Daoist, please come this way." As the old man spoke, he led Ye Tian towards a large tree that could be embraced by dozens of people. When they arrived in front of the tree, they saw the old man mumbling something.

The elder turned around and bowed to Ye Tian. "Fellow cultivator, this is this old man's residence. Fellow cultivator, please enter."

Ye Tian didn't reply and directly walked through the door. When he entered the cave, he found that it was a different kind of cave. It was about a hundred feet wide and had all sorts of daily necessities. The walls were all inlaid with night pearls the size of bowls.

"Hehe, Fellow's cave is truly unique. I admire the fact that you were able to create a cave in such a large tree." Ye Tian laughed.

"Fellow Daoist, you're too courteous. It's just a small place. Please take a seat." As the elder spoke, he led Ye Tian to the table in the center of the cave before hurriedly pouring some tea for him.

After Ye Tian sat down, he saw that everyone was respectfully standing at the side. He smiled and said, "Fellow daoists, what are you all doing? I am not a fiendish devil, come and sit with us. "

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other before carefully sitting down.

After everyone sat down, Ye Tian said with a serious expression, "Fellow daoists, I have just offended you. Now, I apologize in place of my wine and tea." Ye Tian raised his teacup as he spoke.

"Fellow Daoist, you can't! Fellow Daoist, you can't! Fellow Daoist, we've all witnessed your divine abilities. We can't afford to bear the words' atonement '." The old man hurriedly stopped him.

"Hehe, Fellow Yang, what are you saying? I am not the type of person who oppresses others with my strength. If you are in the wrong, then you are in the wrong. Come, let me finish this first." With that, Ye Tian finished the cup of tea in his hand in one gulp. Seeing this, everyone's expression became a lot more relaxed. They all smiled and drank the tea in their hands in one gulp.

After that, the crowd became more intimate with Ye Tian, and they were no longer as restrained as before. At this time, the old man smiled and asked, "This old man dares to ask, what kind of strange flowers and plants did Fellow come to Savage Forest to gather or to hunt demonic beasts? If Fellow Daoist has anything that can be of use to us, feel free to instruct us.

"That's right, Dao Friend Ye, feel free to say so. We are basically familiar with the periphery of Savage Forest. If you need to hunt any demonic beasts, tell me. I, Dahei, will immediately bring them over to you." At this moment, the black bear that was originally somewhat afraid of Ye Tian said clearly after seeing Ye Tian's amiable attitude.

"Hehe, Fellow Black Bear is too serious. The Savage Forest is the world of the Demonic Clan. I would not dare to mention the matter of hunting Demonic Beasts in front of all you Fellow Daoists." Ye Tian Yan smiled when he heard that.

"Heh heh, that's alright. How can those low-level demon beasts compare to the descendants of us great ancient demons? If Fellow wants to kill them, then kill them." Black Bear chuckled.

"Black Bear, what are you talking about? Those low level demon beasts are also from our race, why are you speaking like that?" The old man said with a displeased expression.

"Heh heh, Uncle Yang, this fellow Black Bear has always been a straightforward person, and he only said that because of his strong admiration for you. Actually, this time, you didn't come to hunt demon beasts or gather any strange flowers or herbs, but to find wood essence." Seeing this, Black Flame laughed and helped Black Bear out of the siege.

"Is fellow cultivator looking for wood essence?" This is not easy to deal with. Normally, only the Wood Race Patriarchs would have something like this. Those Wood Race Dao cultivators who can be called Patriarchs are all people that could shake the entire Savage Forest with a single stomp of their feet. " Hearing this, the old man said with a serious expression.

"Hehe, before I came here, I had some understanding of this matter. However, the wood essence is very important to me, so no matter how difficult it is, I will give it a try." Ye Tian smiled.

Just as the old man was about to reply, the entire cave suddenly shook as if it had been attacked.

"What's going on? Could it be that someone attacked the cave? " Ye Tian asked in confusion.

"Sigh, Stone Clan has come to accept offerings again." The old man sighed. After which, the old man walked out with Black Flame and the others.

"Stone Clan? There's a Stone Tribe existence in this Savage Forest? " Ye Tian muttered as he stood up and followed her out.

Arriving outside the dwelling, Ye Tian discovered two Stone Tribe members with stone bodies that emitted the aura of a Large Success Stage cultivator, looking down on everyone from above.

"So it's Stone Clan's High Scholar. This old man has come at the wrong time, please forgive me." With that, the old man bowed towards the two people from Stone Clan.

"Enough nonsense, are you prepared for this year's Stone Flower?" And you guys are all here at the same time, so you don't have to worry about us brothers running around again. One of the stone clansmen said loudly.

"High Envoy, we have already prepared the stone flowers. However, we have been collecting these for many years and it is already very difficult to find them around here. So, the number is not as large as last time. Please forgive us." As the old man spoke, he took out his storage pouch and took out dozens of stone flowers that looked exactly like ordinary stones.

When the others saw this, they all took out their storage pouches and placed some of their stone flowers together. When the Stone Clan member who had spoken first saw the hundreds of stone flowers on the ground, his expression immediately darkened. He said coldly, "Are you all tired of living? This little stone flower is not even half of what it used to be in the past. You bullshit descendants of Archaic Deities are becoming more and more outrageous. Do you believe that I will annihilate you all?"

"Envoy Gao, calm your anger. Envoy, calm your anger. We have already collected all of the stone flowers. Even if you kill us, we won't be able to take out any more." The old man explained with a bitter face.

"Hmph, since we can't find the stone flower, there's no use in keeping you all alive." As the man spoke, he was about to attack.

"Alright, Shi Yue, you'll get the stone flowers after you kill them?" At this moment, the Stone Clan member, who had yet to speak, suddenly spoke up to stop them.

"Then what should we do? "Hmph, Shi Hong, I'll tell you this. If we can't get enough flowers, we won't have any good fruits to eat when we go back." The Shi Yue clan member coldly snorted.

When Shi Hong heard this, he did not reply. Instead, he said indifferently to the elders, "As you can see, we will be punished even if we can't collect enough stone flowers. How about this, you guys go gather at the Lightning Gathering Pond. There are more stone flowers there."

"What?" When the old man heard this, he was immediately shocked.

"Gather in the Lightning Gathering Pond. Aren't we supposed to be sending ourselves to our deaths?" Hearing this, Black Bear immediately shouted in anger.

"What did you say?" Shi Yue shouted when he heard this.

"Alright, I've thought of a way. Three days later, we will come back to collect the stone flowers. If you can't hand it over by then, then don't blame us for being rude." Shi Hong said indifferently and flew away with Shi Yue.

"Fellow Daoist Yang, what kind of item is this stone flower?" Why did Stone Clan want you to hand it over to them every year? " Ye Tian looked at the stone flower on the ground and asked in confusion.

"Fellow cultivator, you might not know that this stone flower is a unique flower in the periphery of Savage Forest. It looks like an ordinary flower, but its color is no different from stone. Although this flower is useless against us Demonic Beasts, the Stone Clan people can use this special technique to absorb the energy from the stone flower to increase their defense." This place is the territory of the Stone Clan, one of the three great races of the central region of Savage Forest. Therefore, we will send people to collect the stone flowers every year. The old man said helplessly when he heard this.

"Three great races in the center of Savage Forest? That Tree Race should be the largest race, and other than the Stone Race, who else could they be? " Ye Tian asked.

"There's also the Serpent Clan. This Serpent Clan is considered the descendant of an Archaic greater demon. However, they have a large number of clansmen, unlike us, descendants of ancient greater demons, who are being bullied everywhere by other demons." At this moment, Hei Ming came over and said.

"Yeah, if it was in the ancient times, when our Blackstone Tyrant Bear tribe was flourishing, would the Stone Tribe dare to speak to me like this?" Just finish off the Stone Clan. " Black Bear said angrily.

"Alright, let's not talk anymore. The situation is better than the person. Let's go to the Lightning Gathering Pool and take a look. If we can't gather enough stone flowers, then we can just give up our lives." Oh right, Fellow Daoist Ye, you should rest in my cave, I'll be right back. " The old man sighed.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be so pessimistic. According to the name, the Lightning Gathering Pool should be related to lightning. I happen to practice some lightning attribute cultivation methods, so I might be able to help you." Ye Tian Yan smiled when he heard that.

"In that case, thank you Fellow. However, the lightning and thunder around the Lightning Gathering Pond could cause one to be angry even if they were careless during the Large Success Stage. Fellow, you have to follow this old man closely." Seeing that Ye Tian wanted to go with him, the old man reminded him.
