As he stepped into the deep black hole in the tree, two silver flames suddenly flashed in Qingyang's eyes, which were behind Xiaoqing. As he stepped into the deep black hole in the tree, two silver flames suddenly flashed in Qingyang's eyes, which were behind Xiaoqing.

Although the cave entrance was quite large, it was a completely different world after they entered. The tree hole that was as tall as a person was gradually becoming narrower and narrower, like a funnel. Only a winding road could be seen leading to this place.

The surrounding tree walls were completely different from the huge trees outside. They were smooth and exquisite, as if they had been plowed through. This caused Qingyang to be secretly amazed.

Xiaoqing was very familiar with the route ahead of her. At first, she was afraid of losing the two of them, but every now and then, she would stop and creak a few times. After a few times, she would see Qingyang still maintaining a distance of ten meters away from her.

"Qingyang, where is Xiaoqing bringing us?"

The two people and the monkey remained silent in tacit understanding for a long time. Suddenly, Lu Xianhan's inquiring voice came from the deep and winding hollow of the tree.

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that something is calling me."

After a moment of silence, Qingyang who was walking in front of him spoke, his tone carrying a trace of doubt.

"Hmm? A strange feeling? "

Hearing this, Lu Xianhan froze for a moment. Then, he tightened his grip on Qingyang and asked nervously.

"Don't worry. It's just that there seems to be an energy in my body that is very similar to the energy in the deep part of this tree. Although I'm not too sure, there shouldn't be any danger."

After a soft word of consolation, Qingyang appeared rather calm.

It was not the power of thunder and fire, but an extremely tiny amount of bright green energy. It was as if there was something in the depths of this tree hole that was calling out to him, creating a strange resonance with the bright green energy in his body. However, this kind of mysterious feeling was hard to describe, so it could only be simply mentioned with Lu Xianhan.

Sensing the calmness in Qingyang's heart, Lu Xianhan naturally no longer worried. He only responded with a single word of agreement before falling silent.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Little Green suddenly let out a creaking sound in front of him. Qingyang's heart skipped a beat and he quickened his pace. Sure enough, after walking for a short distance, everything suddenly became clear.

"This is ?"

Raising his head and looking around, he realized that this sealed space seemed to be the center of the giant tree. It was perfectly round like a ball, and the four walls were still smooth like before.

On the contrary, it did not look like it had been made by human hands, but more like it had been made from nature. The most frightening thing was that ever since the two had stepped into the core of the tree, they had felt an extremely strong wave of wood type energy.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak!"

A flurry of shouts pulled the two of them back from their astonishment. Xiaoqing was squatting in the middle of the room, waving her arms and signalling the two of them to come over.

"Let's go take a look."

Lu Xianhan called out softly and was about to walk towards the center of the room. However, just as he took two steps forward, he realized that Qingyang, who was standing blankly beside him, had not taken a step forward.

As if he couldn't hear himself, Lu Xianhan followed Qingyang's unmoving gaze. To the left of the heart of the tree, he saw a floating green bead on a high platform.

The bead emitted a faint green light into the surroundings. It was faintly discernible and gradually faded into the air. If one did not pay close attention, they would not be able to notice it.

Lu Xianhan frowned. His intuition told him that although the energy contained in this bead wasn't great, it could separate the wood element energy from the heaven and earth. Then, it would condense into silk and spread to the surroundings, where it would be absorbed by the heart of the tree.

No wonder this tree could grow so big. Strangely, no overflowing aura could be felt outside of the heart of the tree, not even a trace.

"Azure Sun, Azure Sun!"

After another few sentences, Qingyang moved, but Lu Xianhan's eyebrows gradually tightened. He actually walked towards the floating bead with a stiff expression.

Lu Xianhan suddenly thought of what Qingyang had said to him in the secret cave. His outstretched hand stopped mid-air, staring at Qingyang who was walking slowly in the distance without uttering a single word.

Could it be that the bead was the thing that Qingyang said was able to resonate with the energy in his body? However, he wasn't too sure either. He saw that Qingyang's expression was a bit dull, but his heart tightened for no reason.

"Little Qing!"

As for the item in the core of the tree, it was likely that it was much more familiar with it than he was. Based on its behavior on the road, it was obvious that Xiaoqing was more fond of Qingyang than him, and if he was able to save it even after falling down, then if the bead was harmful to Qingyang, it would definitely intervene to stop him.

"Squeak, squeak!"

The monkey glanced at Lu Xianhan, then turned its head to stare at Qingyang who was slowly approaching the bead. It scratched its head silently.

As Qingyang approached the floating platform, the monkey's puzzled face suddenly turned complicated. His eyes were filled with hesitation and puzzlement. He tried several times to stop Qingyang, but he failed to do so in the end.

Xiaoqing just squatted on the spot and beckoned to Lu Xianhan. After she came over with a face full of doubt, Xiaoqing pointed at Qingyang with her monkey claws and made two squeaking sounds.

"You mean that Qingyang will be fine?"

Seeing that the little green monkey beside him had a larger head, Lu Xianhan's tense face finally relaxed a little. However, his small hands clenched tightly as he stared worriedly at Qingyang.

At this moment, it was as if the Azure Sun was possessed by a devil. It mechanically walked slowly toward the high platform. To Lu Xianhan and Xiaoqing, this was a rather strange scene.

It was so light that it was almost impossible to see clearly. However, the meticulous Lu Xianhan had discovered that the extremely faint green energy was of the same source of energy as the green thread emitted by the jade green bead. From the looks of it, it seemed that the extremely faint energy within Qingyang's body was attracted by the bead, resulting in Qingyang's appearance.

The strands of green silk, which had originally been scattered in every direction by the green bead, began to fall apart in a strange manner as they floated in the direction of Qingyang. The originally weak light of the bead also began to dazzle everyone's eyes.

"What, what's going on?!"

As Qingyang neared the bead, Lu Xianhan was horrified to find that the Wood Power in the originally calm heart of the tree was suddenly berserk. Even the Wood Power outside the heart of the tree was rushing in, gradually forming a green whirlpool with the bead as the center.

The restless power of the wood element did not harm the man and the monkey. As if it had a mind of its own, it wrapped around the two of them and pushed them into the tunnel.

Lu Xianhan, who had regained his senses, was shocked to find that Qingyang was still in the heart of the tree. He rushed forward to break into the heart of the tree, only to discover that there seemed to be a seal at the entrance.

Xiaoqing, on the other hand, didn't even look at the anxious Lu Xianhan. Instead, she sat on the ground in contemplation, unexpectedly not the slightest bit nervous.

Just as Lu Xianhan was trying his best to break open the seal, he heard Qingyang's angry roar from within!

"No!"
