Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 597 The Demon Tree

wasteland.

Silently, a figure descended upon this land, standing outside an ancient city, gazing at the horizon.

"This is the entrance to the small world," Lin Fan muttered to himself, his sharp eyes gleaming with divine light.

He was referring to Baiduan Mountain, a place he had explored before and was familiar with.

This is a strange place, a sealed ancient small world. Being inside will restrict and suppress one's cultivation level.

This place only opens on its own every so often, and its opening time is limited, so it remains unseen most of the time.

"This is the method of a supreme being!" Lin Fan judged after staring at it.

Then, he made his move and forcibly broke the seal. As an immortal, he far surpassed the Supreme Being and naturally had this ability.

"Crack!"

A massive black lightning bolt erupted amidst the mountains, tearing through the void and revealing a small world.

"Ok?"

At that moment, Lin Fan sensed something was wrong. This small world seemed to be different from what it had been more than ten years ago.

As you can see, there is endless white mist in the distance, churning and surging like a tide, sweeping across the sky and the earth.

Actually, upon closer inspection, it wasn't white mist at all, but rather countless dandelion seeds, sparkling and as white as snow.

"what……"

At the same time, accompanied by a flurry of white snow, the entire small world descended into chaos, with all kinds of creatures screaming and blood splattering everywhere.

Most shockingly, any creature invaded by dandelion seeds will have its flesh and blood drained in an instant, leaving only a skin.

"The Demon Tree!" Lin Fan's face immediately darkened as he recognized what was going on.

This race comes from another realm, not belonging to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. They are known throughout the world for their bloodlust, and are extremely cruel and terrifying.

They don't act unless they're absolutely sure, but once they strike, they leave no survivors.

Moreover, once the dandelion seeds are released, they take root in the enemy's flesh and blood, sucking them dry until not even the marrow is left.

"Woooo..."

A whistling sound arose, like the wailing of ghosts, and snow-white dandelions, scattered everywhere, spotted Lin Fan and flew towards him.

In an instant, a silvery light flashed, and the snow-white seed drew near. It looked small, but it was extremely dangerous and very sharp.

Once it pierces the skin, even a god would find it difficult to pull out; it would drain the skin of its essence and vitality, turning it into its nourishment.

"Insolence!" Lin Fan shouted, and the entire small world trembled as if it were about to explode, causing all living beings to tremble.

He didn't even need to raise his hand; with just a sound wave, the snowflakes turned to dust and burned away completely.

Keep in mind that this was only after he had restrained himself; otherwise, let alone a small world, an entire starry sea would have exploded.

"Hey!"

The next moment, Lin Fan waved his hand, and no matter how far away they were, the Pumo trees in Hundred Broken Mountains all fell down in front of him.

With a bang, one giant tree after another fell to the ground, trembling and unable to stand up, clinging tightly to the ground.

Lin Fan used his divine sense to scan the area. There were no more secrets or hidden locations in the entire small world, but he did not find the Demon King Pu he was looking for.

However, one giant tree caught his attention. It was exceptionally large and its seeds were black, unlike anything else.

"An imperial family! Or... a direct descendant of Old Demon Pu?" Lin Fan examined it and took it in his hand.

Ultimately, this race belongs to the plant family, and their reproduction is different from that of flesh-and-blood creatures; a single person can reproduce.

If it so desires, a single tree can create a colony; the endless dandelions are its bloodline seeds.

Clearly, this black Pumo tree is extraordinary; both its size and cultivation level are the highest among them.

Lin Fan guessed that it was probably a descendant cultivated by the Demon King Pu using his diluted blood.

"Who...are you?" the black demon tree asked with difficulty, harboring a primal fear of the immortal's powerful aura. At the same time, it was utterly bewildered; how could such a powerful person have entered Hundred Broken Mountains?

"Where is the Demon King Pu?" Lin Fan asked directly, his expression cold.

If they weren't still useful, this alien executioner race would have been killed the moment he entered.

On the earth, one skeleton after another lay scattered, and the indigenous people were reduced to less than one in ten, almost wiped out. This tragedy was caused by the Pumo Tree.

If it weren't for his arrival, it's estimated that apart from plants, there wouldn't be any living creature left in this small world.

This place is isolated from the world, completely unknown to outsiders, and has become their slaughterhouse and hunting ground.

After all, the races of Hundred Broken Mountains are mostly ancient remnants with low cultivation levels; how could they possibly be a match for the imperial race?

"Don't think about it!"

Upon hearing this, the giant black tree was tempted, immediately understanding what was going on, and then refused without hesitation.

At the same time, it clearly understood the terror of the approaching enemy, and very decisively, it decided to destroy its own primordial spirit by burning it.

However, a mere mortal being, not even a supreme being, could not possibly pull off such a trick in front of an immortal.

"It's not up to you!" Lin Fan said coldly, and with a clench of his large hand, the black giant tree exploded with a bang, its form shattering.

"what……"

With a scream and a wail, the tree, now only a wisp of its soul, transformed into the semi-transparent form of a middle-aged man.

As expected, Lin Fan immediately began searching the soul and quickly obtained the information he wanted: the Demon King Pu had left Baiduan Mountain several years ago.

“The Western Mausoleum Boundary!” he said.

"Do not……"

The primordial spirit of the Pumo Tree cried out, wanting to resist, but it was helpless. The difference in strength was too great, and its life and death were not in its own hands.

"One day...when the Ancestor...recovers to his peak, you will all...die!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan remained completely unmoved. His purpose in coming here was to find the clan's ancestor and eliminate any future troubles.

Then, with a slight exertion of his hand, his primordial spirit exploded, and he was annihilated, body and soul.

"puff!"

At the same time, all the Pumo trees in this area were wiped out, not a single one was left, the killing was swift and decisive.

In addition, Lin Fan also discovered an ancient coffin in the central area. Its age was unknown, but traces of the Demon King Pu were found inside.

Inside the ancient coffin, there were some cracked pieces of flesh and skin, covered with scales, which looked very strange.

"This place was originally the burial site of the supreme being who created the Hundred Broken Mountains. The Demon King Pu fled here and devoured his remains."

Lin Fan deduced that by using his great magical power to manipulate the fragments of time, he saw some scenes that had happened here in the past.

A creature over ten feet tall, reeking of decay, as if it had crawled out of a mountain of corpses, occasionally scattering snowflakes, once lay resting in a coffin.

In addition, he saw a strange altar of bones in the coffin; it was small and not very large, with five corners.

"It looks familiar..." Lin Fan murmured, then his eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "The mark of the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"

In the past, he had collected four-sixths of the Reincarnation Disc, and only two corners were needed to make the Immortal King Artifact regain its ancient glory.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he searched, even after becoming an immortal and using the spells taught by the puppy, he could not sense the other two horns.

I thought it was hopeless, guessing that it might have been destroyed or fallen to another realm, and I gave up hope.

Unexpectedly, traces of it were found here.

"Could it be that someone has obtained the other corners of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc?"

Lin Fan pondered for a moment. Indeed, the five corners of the altar were very similar to the corners of the Wheel of Reincarnation, which made him think deeply.

Finally, he left, departing from Baiduan Mountain and heading to his next destination, the Xiling Realm where the Demon King Pu might be.
