Chapter 724: Chapter 726: Mother-in-law is a Snake!
Luotian Gate!
Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar spoke.
"Although the Luotian Gate can communicate with the heavens, allowing our true form to descend,
we cannot take the Primordial Life Tree with us.
The Primordial Life Tree communicates with the Six Realms and can leap away in an instant, entering any one of them.
We do not have the Dao Skill to bind the Primordial Life Tree, nor can we perform such a skill," she said solemnly.
The woman’s silhouette within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree gazed at the Primordial Life Tree, a look of longing on her face.
"You can open the Luotian Gate and let him cut off a piece of the Primordial Life Tree branch, send it to the heavens for you to devour," Li Mountain’s Saint Mother said.
The woman’s silhouette within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree nodded.
"Yes, the rest of the Primordial Life Tree, after he ascends, will be given to our true form to devour," she said.
Yang Yan raised an eyebrow.
"If you can let your true form descend, can you also take *me* to the heavens?"
If there were a simple way to ascend, he would save the trouble for Wuyang Sword Sect.
"Our true form is already above the Eight Layered Heaven, just a step away from the Nine Heavens.
If you went there, it would be too dangerous.
It would be better for you to cross these heavens step by step, reach a certain realm of cultivation, and then ascend," Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar said.
Above the Eight Layered Heaven?
It seemed they had taken another step forward, nearly reaching the pinnacle of cultivation.
"Hmm," Yang Yan only wanted to give it a try.
*It seemed now, there was no shortcut to take.*
*He could only cross one layer after another, reaching the highest position.*
"How much of the Primordial Life Tree’s branch do you want?" Yang Yan asked.
He could use the Small Burial Immortal Technique to bury the Primordial Life Tree, naturally able to divide its body.
"One piece, one piece will suffice for now, anymore and it would escape," the woman’s silhouette within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree said.
More and it could still escape?
*This Primordial Life Tree was indeed mysterious.*
*But in Yang Yan’s hands, it was always very quiet.*
*Perhaps it was waiting for the chance to suddenly escape.*
A Divine Sword appeared in Yang Yan’s hand, realizing that ordinary objects could not sever the Primordial Life Tree.
It was, after all, a Sovereign realm entity, its body tougher than that of a Saint.
Ordinary blades could not cut it.
The Divine Sword descended, Yang Yan controlled it with his Emperor Body.
With infinite power, he cleaved down.
A branch of the Primordial Life Tree was cut off by him.
The severed branch trembled, about to merge into the void.
Yang Yan grabbed it swiftly and raised his hand.
"Take it," he said.
Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar and the woman’s silhouette within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree acted together, seizing the branch of the Primordial Life Tree.
Yet, under their power, the branch trembled, clearly showing that the power of their avatars could not suppress the branch of the Primordial Life Tree.
Rumbling!
A void door opened in the sky, two forces streamed down through the portal.
Together, they wrapped the branch of the Primordial Life Tree cut by Yang Yan and moved upwards to the heavens.
Piercing through the void door, it vanished into the sky.
"Yang Yan, you are truly remarkable," Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar praised.
She and the avatar of the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree could not suppress the branch of the Primordial Life Tree, but Yang Yan could grasp it in one motion.
Moreover, he could suppress the Primordial Life Tree; this level of power had already surpassed the strength of their avatars.
At his age and realm, to achieve such feats was simply astonishing.
"Not bad," Yang Yan flipped his hand and put away the Primordial Life Tree.
The avatar of the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree waved a branch, and a tender white fruit appeared on it.
The Heavenly Saint Fruit!
This was the fruit promised to Yang Yan; as soon as he brought the Primordial Life Tree, a Heavenly Saint Fruit would be given to him.
The Heavenly Saint Fruit flew out, and Yang Yan raised his hand to catch it.
Opening his mouth, he gulped down the Heavenly Saint Fruit in one bite.
A torrent of power washed over his body, making his power more refined and cohesive.
His entire strength received an enhancement.
Although the boost wasn’t massive, he sensed a qualitative transformation within his body.
The fruit of the Holy Medicine, after all, wasn’t ordinary.
Yang Yan finished consuming it and quickly digested it.
"Mother-in-law, is there anything else you wish to say?"
"Yes, if you can ascend to the Third Level Heaven, you can refer to the Heavenly Palace.
With your talent, if you enter the Heavenly Palace,
your strength will be greatly enhanced.
No one will need to help you ascend; you will easily ascend," Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar said.
"Hmm, I understand."
Yang Yan cupped his hands.
"I shall take my leave now."
He turned to indicate to Liu Niang and Fei Hong.
Both of them descended Li Mountain with him.
After they left, the woman within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree’s avatar said,
"Your son-in-law’s future might not be within your control."
Li Mountain’s Saint Mother’s avatar nodded slightly.
"Indeed, I didn’t expect when my daughter went to Dongzhou,
she would encounter such a genius.
His talent might rival those forbidden geniuses and heaven-defying geniuses above the Sixth Layer Heaven," she said solemnly.
"*One from the Human World has emerged with such potential; it’s astounding.*
*Could it be that in this era, a Great Emperor will emerge from the Human World?*
*Shouldn’t be possible!*
*The last Great Emperor did come from the Human World.*
*A place, since ancient times, has never produced two Great Emperors consecutively.*"
"Indeed, he has the chance of becoming an Emperor.
But the actual chance of becoming an Emperor is pitifully small.
However, there is indeed a chance he might create a miracle!" the woman within the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree’s avatar said.
"*Let’s wait and see how far he can go.*"
"Hmm."
After Yang Yan, Liu Niang, and Fei Hong descended the mountain,
they headed towards the Wuyang Sword Sect; Yang Yan had completed the task for the first day.
Even the geniuses of his and the previous generation had been surpassed by him.
He had no competitor left and sought stronger opponents to become more powerful.
"*Time to transform my appearance.*" Yang Yan said.
He used the Dao Illusion Technique, reverting to his original tall figure with the longsword slung on his back.
His appearance was exactly the same as when he had entered the Wuyang Sword Sect.
Liu Niang moved slightly, concealing her aura a bit, and changed her appearance somewhat.
She became more ordinary, less noticeable.
Fei Hong did not need to change; during the time Liu Niang had captured the Female Saint, she wasn’t present.
Master Xianzhu would not recognize her!
"Does this suffice?" Liu Niang asked.
"It does," Yang Yan said. "Do you know my mother-in-law?"
"I do; she was once a top talent, arrogant and domineering.
She bullied me, but she can’t do so anymore.
She must have undergone Nirvana once, her strength has weakened significantly," Liu Niang replied.
"What is her true form?"
"She is a snake with the Green Dragon Bloodline, a Crimson Azure Holy flood dragon!"
A snake?
*My mother-in-law is a snake?*
*My wife is also a snake?*
*No, my wife is clearly human.*
*Though she has a Dragon Tail, Dragon Body...*
"*The transformation of a heavenly-born daughter?*" Yang Yan mused in his heart.
Soon, he, Liu Niang, and Fei Hong returned to the Wuyang Sword Sect.
As he returned, many looked at him with peculiar glances.
"He returned unharmed; didn’t Master Xianzhu say he was deeply entrenched in peril?" someone whispered.
