1173 The Resurrection of the Immortal Tree! (1/2)
If Bu Fang were to ask them, ”Are you guys mad?”, the two Little Saints would surely give him a good smacking, even if that would get them both killed.
They were so mad now. No one had ever fooled them like that.
How could Bu Fang toy with two Perishing Pots? That was a scary thing!
People would die if the pots exploded accidentally!
Bu Fang didn't care what the two Little Saints thought. All he had to do was buy time so Realm Lord Di Tai could plant the seeds and make them germinate.
Of course, he didn't think about what would happen after that either.
Realm Lord Di Tai looked at the green bud breaking through the ground with excitement as he reached out a hand over it.
There was a gash in his palm, where thick blood kept trickling down and was being absorbed crazily by the fresh bud.
The scene made everyone's hair stand on end.
However, the aura of the whole Immortal Cooking Realm began to change dramatically at this moment.
The decaying realm seemed to have revived, while the rich spirit energy of heaven and earth began to fill the air.
Rumble!
A violent quake occurred, causing the whole Immortal Cooking Realm to tremble.
Even then, the remains of the Immortal Tree in the fifth layer dissolved into tiny particles and drifted away.
In fact, not only the fifth layer, but the same thing happened in the fourth, third, second, and first layers.
The withering remains of the Immortal Tree suddenly shattered at this moment, turning into tiny particles that scattered when the wind blew, leaving only a huge pit in the ground.
The whole Immortal Cooking Realm fell utterly silent.
Everyone was staring blankly at the place where the Immortal Tree once stood, shivering and frozen with fear.
The Immortal Tree was the spiritual sustenance of every expert in the Immortal Cooking Realm, but now it had disappeared...
Meng Qi stood on the wall and watched as the Immortal Tree disappeared. For a moment, she felt lost.
Did it fail?
Was the Immortal Cooking Realm ultimately doomed to destruction and death?
”Oh?”
Suddenly, she froze.
Then, she reached out her hand, sent out her mental force, and began to sense the changes in the spirit energy between heaven and earth.
Unlike the previous environment, the Immortal Tree's destruction didn't cause the whole Immortal Cooking Realm to crumble. Moreover, the spirit energy of heaven and earth seemed to be showing signs of recovery.
Her eyes flickered as she raised her fair palm.
In her palm, energy kept gathering and turning into an energy ball, in which immortal energy could be seen swirling.
The immortal energy looked and felt so familiar that it left her slightly dumbstruck.
A moment later, Meng Qi's red lips curved upward into a happy smile.
Rumble!
A seedling grew out from where the Immortal Tree once stood.
Everyone heard a loud boom.
The next moment, the seeding began to grow rapidly, and in just a flash, it had pierced through the world.
Although it was not as magnificent as the former Immortal Tree, it had a touch of mystery. Moreover, the new Immortal Tree contained vast life energy than its predecessor!
”It's the Immortal Tree!”
”Is the Immortal Tree resurrected?! I can feel rich life energy in the air!”
”Spirit energy of heaven and earth! Yes! Spirit energy of heaven and earth is back!”
With surprised and excited looks on their faces, the immortal chefs hiding in the third layer's Immortal City all danced and cheered.
They were so happy that they didn't know what to say to express their current emotions.
Some even burst into tears.
They didn't know what it meant to lose the Immortal Tree, but they knew that the days when the tree was dying were the darkest days of the Immortal Cooking Realm.
…
In the fifth layer of the Immortal Cooking Realm...
Because of the violent battle, the fourth layer and the fifth layer had completely fused.
The Immortal Tree shot into the sky and directly pierced both layers.
The ground of the fifth layer was in a ruinous state. Rocks were rolling everywhere, and even a layer of soil was lifted. It showed how terrible the battle was.
In front of Realm Lord Di Tai, a touch of green abruptly grew up. After offering it so much blood, the seedling had turned into an enormous tree that towered into the sky. Its leaves spread like a giant canopy, rustling noisily as they brushed against each other.
The whole fifth layer seemed to be blanketed by the Immortal Tree.
All of sudden, strong life energy spread out of it.
The Immortal Cooking Realm was... revived!
The Immortal Tree was... resurrected!
The two Little Saints from the Nine Revolution Nether Chefs Clan exchanged a glance and saw the shocked look in each other's eyes.
Without hesitation, they shot toward the Immortal Tree. They had to cut down the tree before it was fully revived. Only in this way would the Immortal Cooking Realm's foundation be destroyed, giving them a chance to obtain the Immortal Tree's seeds.
This kind of Sacred grade immortal ingredient should be planted in the Nine Revolution Nether Chefs Clan's gardens so that its effects could be fully utilized.
Bu Fang glanced at the two Little Saints who were almost on the verge of going berserk, and then at the Immortal Tree that was still growing. He twitched the corner of his mouth.
”It looks like you have to guess again... Do you think I can let this pot explode?” Bu Fang said as he stood in the way of the two Little Saints, holding a pot in his hand.
In response, the two experts' faces grew dark with rage.
This guy did it on purpose, didn't he?
”Get out of the way!” one of them snapped. The next moment, however, his eyes shrank.
Because Bu Fang took out another crystal fruit of life and shoved it into his mouth. A burst of life energy exploded out instantly.
”Guess again...” Bu Fang said.
”Guess, my ass! You're courting death!”
A Little Saint flew into a rage. With a step, his body turned into streams of light and then appeared in front of Bu Fang, stirring up powerful blasts and pressure that almost pushed the latter to the ground.
Bu Fang's eyes narrowed.
Suddenly, the Immortal Tree behind him swayed and burst into blinding rays.
The rustling of its leaves sounded like the whisper of a formidable existence.
In front of Bu Fang, the Little Saint threw out a palm with rage. It came with great power, and if Bu Fang was hit without the invincibility of the Vermillion Robe, he would be severely wounded.
This time, however, Bu Fang didn't even need to use the robe's invincibility.
A tree branch suddenly broke through the ground, piercing across the air like a sharp spear toward the Little Saint.
Shocked, the Little Saint's eyes shrank, and his movement halted. Then, his figure blurred into countless shadows and disappeared.
The branch that broke through the ground glowed brilliantly like a rainbow.
