What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

When they rushed out of the ancient land and returned to the top along the original path, they ran into several elders leading a group of academy disciples, who were looking at the Anti-Five Elements Formation with astonishment.

"You...you guys...went inside?" the Fourth Elder asked in surprise.

They had just grasped the basics of this reversal of the Five Elements when they arrived to find three people rushing out from inside.

"You're too late. We arrived several days ago, and the three of us swept everything inside clean. There's only a few blades of grass left," Shi Hao said with a smile.

"If you don't believe me, go in and see for yourselves."

After saying this, Qi Shi'an left the protective range of the Anti-Five Elements Array and continued to delve into various strange places on the Five Elements Continent. He wanted to collect more seeds to evolve the Myriad Paths Tree.

Some disciples, refusing to believe the superstition, plunged headlong into that dark, ancient land. Sure enough, just as Shi Hao had said, it had become a barren wasteland, with nothing left.

Several days later, Qi Shi'an roamed the continent, collecting many seeds, including all five Dao seeds: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

In addition, they also obtained some Five Elements Treasures, which can be used to refine magical artifacts.

Qi Shi'an activated the Myriad Dao Tree, devouring all the Dao Seeds. Within his inner cave, the Myriad Dao Tree emitted a vast divine energy, its leaves and branches shrouded in a mysterious aura.

Five elements of divine light swirled around the tree trunk, and numerous illusory images appeared on the runic leaves, all of which were precious techniques he had mastered. Thousands of Dao fruits hung high on the branches, like stars, dazzling and radiant.

Qi Shi'an's body was rumbling, and the energy emanating from the transformation of the Myriad Paths Tree was constantly tempering his body. He was like a small sun, shining brightly.

The body surface is covered with symbols, which are the same as those on the rune leaves. They are constantly recombined and changed to form entirely new Dao runes.

He could now make out some of the mysterious symbols carved on the tree trunk, such as the characters "大" (big) and "天" (sky) among the first five symbols.

"Damn it, I still don't understand."

Qi Shi'an scratched his head, only able to determine that this was a mysterious method, but because he couldn't recognize all the characters, he couldn't truly practice it.

Perhaps his level of understanding was insufficient; those characters contained profound truths of the Dao, which he couldn't comprehend. But this was still a good start; at least he had recognized some of them.

boom!

Several days later, the earth shook, and golden light filled the sky; a massive earthquake had occurred.

"The Quasi-World Tree is leaving!" the Second Elder roared, notifying everyone.

As the ancient golden tree swayed, the sun's divine light soared into the sky, and each leaf held the sun, moon, and stars, radiating an astonishing vitality, as if it were creating the world and reshaping a universe!

The chaotic energy around it grew increasingly dense. This time, the collection of the five elements' essence here allowed it to undergo a deeper evolution, transforming into a true World Tree.

"Let's go, let's continue following it. The places it's going to are all mysterious holy lands!" the Second Elder said.

The golden ancient tree rose from the ground, carrying a vigorous life force, breaking through the heavens and earth, rushing into the distance. The commotion was so great that the sky trembled and stars fell in a flurry.

The next stop was indeed the Holy Land, a place of sacred peace and harmony, with auspicious clouds filling the sky, all formed from the runes of the Great Dao.

Along the way, they encountered the Immortal Academy's warship. Sensing something was amiss, they followed closely behind.

As people landed, they were deeply shaken. This was not a true paradise, but a land constructed by the rules of the world, a place governed by laws.

"The Seed of the Dao!"

Some people exclaimed excitedly, for they had seen a tree covered with fruit, all of which were manifestations of the Dao, just like the legendary Tree of Ten Thousand Daos!

The crowd swarmed forward and picked all the fruit.

After staying in this land of laws for more than twenty days, and searching in every possible way, I vaguely sensed the boundless aura of the Great Dao.

"Found it! There's a floating island in the far west, and there's a tree there that appears and disappears through a great rift in the void, laden with fruit!"

On that day, someone shouted that it was discovered by a group of people and could not be kept a secret. The news quickly spread back.

This undoubtedly caused a great sensation, and everyone set off together towards the westernmost point.

An island, suspended above numerous rules, where thunder intertwines, yin energy permeates, and the essence of the sun emerges, displaying a variety of strange phenomena of heaven and earth!

The Myriad Trees within Qi Shi'an's body swayed gently, emitting faint fluctuations of divine energy, as if recognizing a resonance with its kind.

The ancient tree resembled a tea tree, with a winding trunk like an old dragon coiled around it. Its bark was cracked like scales, and its branches and leaves were lush and orderly. Its fruits were of various colors, and the entire tree was surrounded by a chain of divine order.

Without a doubt, this is the Myriad Dao Tree, a flawless immortal seed, even larger than the Myriad Dao Tree within Qi Shi'an's body, bearing tens of thousands of fruits, and has evolved to its ultimate form.

"This is the Myriad Dao Tree?" Shi Hao was shocked, his pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Qi Shi'an. How amazing it was that two Myriad Dao Trees could be born in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!

There's someone there!?

Everyone's hearts trembled. In the void rift, not far from the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths, sat an ancient man, his body wrapped in rusty iron chains, his shoulder blades pierced and locked firmly in place.

Many people want to land on the island, but they find that they can never get close. There are one thunderous pool after another around it, which is enough to blast the gods to dust, not to mention the blockade by the chains of order of the moon and the sun.

Several elders also tried to approach and used their secret treasures, but those treasures silently turned into liquid metal in the center of the island and melted away.

At this moment, the old monster from the Immortal Academy also made his move, attempting to cross the Thunder Pool, traverse the Land of Rules, and pluck the legendary Tree of Ten Thousand Paths.

Splash!

Just then, the chains clanged, and the withered, disheveled creature suddenly raised its head, opened its eyes, and coldly surveyed everyone: "The Tree of Myriad Paths is not something you can possess. Step back!"

"He... is still alive!"

Many people felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. Even though they had already guessed that he might still be alive, they were still shocked to see this scene with their own eyes.

Having lived for countless years and still alive despite being locked in this place, what is his background?

At this moment, Qi Shi'an's eyes darted around, wondering if he could use the aura of the Myriad Trees within his body to get some benefits from this old man.

He didn't aspire to take the entire Myriad Dao Tree with him; that was unrealistic and unnecessary. He only wanted to obtain a few of the original Dao Fruits that his own tree hadn't yet borne.

"The fact that we were able to find this place means we are destined to meet, so why can't we be given a chance?" one of the cultivators said, unwilling to give up.

"When the Heaven-Defying Dao Seed matures, someone will come to take it. You don't need to think about it anymore!" the old man guarding the Myriad Dao Tree said calmly.

"Senior, this Myriad Dao Tree is rooted here, but no one has harvested it. May we approach and take a look?" A prodigy from the Immortal Academy mustered his courage and tentatively asked.

"None of you are qualified!" the man said coldly, his rusty chains trembling as he spoke.

"Really? Then am I qualified?"

Qi Shi'an raised his arm, and five-colored divine light bloomed between his palms and fingers. A surge of Dao energy rushed out and rushed straight towards the person who was chained up.

"Hmm?" The man's expression hardened slightly. He looked at Qi Shi'an, then at Wan Daoshu, his eyes filled with confusion.

The Myriad Paths Tree has clearly not been taken yet, so why is this person's aura so similar? Could it be that... he has been in contact with the Myriad Paths Tree before?

He quickly dismissed this guess. He had guarded the Tree of Myriad Paths for many years, and no one had come here for a long time. It was impossible for anyone to bypass him and come into contact with the Tree of Myriad Paths.

Seeing that the other party remained silent for a long time, Qi Shi'an condensed a Great Dao Rune in his palm. Only those who had come into contact with the Myriad Dao Tree could recognize it, as this rune could only be created by the Myriad Dao Tree.

"You... how could you!"

The person chained up had a sudden, strange look in their eyes. In this lifetime, a second Tree of Myriad Paths had been born!

Everyone was puzzled. This person had been so tough just moments before, so why was his emotions fluctuating so drastically now? Could there be something special about this young man?

The old monster from the Immortal Academy and several elders from the Heavenly God Academy also looked puzzled, their eyes flashing with runes as they tried to see through Qi Shi'an.

Unfortunately, they couldn't see through it, because the Myriad Trees within Qi Shi'an's body possessed the ability to conceal heavenly secrets, which ordinary people could not perceive.

Chapter 273 Seeking the Law

"How about it? Will I be able to obtain a few Dao Fruits?" Qi Shi'an asked calmly.

The person chained up was silent for a moment, then said, "Fine, consider it a good deed I'm doing, it won't break my vow."

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and found it hard to believe that the black-robed youth had actually succeeded!

"I won't ask for too much, just those five will do."

Qi Shi'an pointed to the Dao Fruits of Time, Space, Reincarnation, Five Elements, and Stars on the Myriad Dao Tree. These five were the Dao Fruits he had not yet borne, and they were also what he needed.

"for you!"

The person chained up waved the chains, plucked the five Dao Fruits, and sent them to Qi Shi'an across the endless void.

Thank you!

With a wave of his hand, Qi Shi'an absorbed all five Dao Fruits into the Myriad Dao Tree within his body. The Order Divine Chain imprisoned them, preventing the Dao Fruits from withering and the Dao principles from dissipating.

Once the Dao Fruit of the Myriad Dao Tree is picked, it will wither quickly. Fortunately, the one inside him is also the Myriad Dao Tree, which can prevent this from happening.

Everyone was extremely envious, for that was the Dao Fruit borne by the Tree of Ten Thousand Daos, containing supreme Dao principles that could help people comprehend the Great Dao and had unimaginable benefits.

"Senior, we also wish to request a Dao Fruit, is that possible...?"

"roll!"

Before he could finish speaking, the person chained up interrupted him forcefully, his voice icy and chilling.

The next moment, he opened his mouth and spat out a sword beam that plunged into the azure sky, actually cleaving a large star from the heavens, which fell straight down, sending chills down everyone's spine.

The ability to spit out sword light that could cut down stars was both fearful and intimidating, causing many to stop moving and become obedient.

The old monster from the Immortal Academy refused to back down, and the Second Elder of the Heavenly God Academy also didn't want to give up. They both wanted to give it a try, since a disciple could easily obtain five, so they naturally wanted to try as well.

However, with a cold snort, the person chained up released an invisible pressure that shattered the floating island. The soil where the Myriad Dao Tree was rooted cracked open along with the void, revealing some corpses buried in the soil.

"My God, the primordial gods and demons born from chaos have become corpses!"

"That divine bird's body is emanating celestial energy!"

The group saw what was in the soil; even that creature had perished nearby and was buried underground, a sign of danger.

"They all died because of the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths, do you still think about it?" said the creature whose body was locked up.

"go!"

Without further hesitation, the elders of both academies immediately ordered a evacuation. They knew all too well the terrifying power those corpses possessed in life.

Everyone remained silent, realizing the seriousness of the situation. How could two earth-shattering seeds appear one after another in this Boundary Tomb?

Both the mysterious Heavenly Seed and this Myriad Dao Tree are priceless treasures, and the fact that someone is guarding them is simply illogical.

However, no matter how terrifying that person's strength was, someone still benefited from it.

At this moment, not only the people from the Immortal Academy were watching Qi Shi'an, but even the elders and disciples of the Heavenly God Academy were observing him.

No one knows what methods he used to gain the creature's approval, but the young man did indeed take away five long-ripened Dao Fruits in front of everyone.

"Young friend, I wonder if it's possible to exchange one for one? I'm willing to trade it with a magic weapon that allows me to escape!" An old monster from the Immortal Academy transmitted his voice, wanting to exchange for a Dao Fruit.

No one can resist the allure of the Dao Fruits produced by the Tree of Myriad Daos. They are the materialized crystallization of the Great Dao, each corresponding to a complete Dao principle, which can help people comprehend the supreme Dao and save them a lot of time in arduous cultivation.

"No trade!" Qi Shi'an refused decisively, refusing to exchange any treasures offered.

The old monster from the Immortal Academy sighed, a look of regret on his face.

The group lingered there for some time, searching daily for trees and fruits formed by the rules, and some of them reaped quite a harvest.

Only after the golden tree rose from the ground again and left did they set off again, preparing to continue their journey.

However, this time a major problem arose. The Quasi-World Tree shattered the void, carrying with it a vast chaos, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, but it blocked the two warships, preventing them from following.

"This tree has evolved to a more and more mature stage, and has developed its own powerful will, forbidding us from following it!"

The elders were deeply disappointed; their opportunistic approach had been thwarted.

At the same time, some people still have some regrets and speculations: will another flawless seed appear in the next location?

Theoretically speaking, it's impossible for it to appear again, because that kind of thing is too incredible; it's already a stroke of luck to see even one or two.

However, people felt that the place where the Quasi-World Tree stopped was too special, and that it was too much of a coincidence that two flawless immortal seeds appeared in succession.

Therefore, a few people speculate that there will still be a heaven-defying immortal seed at the next stop, believing that the Golden Ancient Tree is traveling along an ancient road.

"The real danger is yet to come; we'll have to rely on ourselves to move forward," the Second Elder said.

Soon after, the silver warship crossed to a desolate place, where shattered stars were scattered everywhere, and various corpses and blood floated in the void.

When someone tried to collect a certain silver blood, he immediately screamed in agony as his spatial artifact melted away, and he himself rotted away, turning into pus and blood.

"Don't move them! These things have long lost their spirit; all that's left is death and destruction!" the Fourth Elder shouted.

This area is vast and boundless, filled with mutilated corpses, many of which are terrifyingly large, some even larger than stars.

It's hard to imagine what kind of fierce battle took place here back then.

They collected more than a dozen blood seeds here. These seeds absorbed the evil energy and ancient blood of this place, forming unique and rare blood-colored seeds.

The once supreme innate gods and demons died in battle, but their essence and blood remained, some of which, through spiritual energy, emerged and transformed into blood seeds.

Of course, the collection process was also fraught with danger. Three people died unexpectedly, engulfed by a deathly aura, turning into bloody mud and decaying to death on the spot.

The elders led the way for the rest of the journey, and they followed familiar paths. Although there were dangers, they were not likely to be wiped out.

Several months later, the journey came to a successful conclusion. They had visited one ancient site after another, but dared not go any further. They had encountered too many dangers along the way, and if they went any deeper, even the elders might perish.
