Dongfang Lie placed his hand on the tree crown, and surging true energy was transmitted through the crown to the ancient tree.

About half an hour later, a passage appeared in the middle of the tree canopy.

"The passage is open. Just go down through it!"

"No matter what happens, don't panic, the ancient tree won't hurt you!" Dongfang Lie said to Wang Xiaoyi.

At this moment, Dongfang Lie's face was covered in sweat, clearly indicating that activating the [Spirit Awakening Ritual] had consumed a great deal of energy.

"Uncle Dongfang, you've worked hard. But how should I get out after this is over?" Wang Xiaoyi asked curiously.

"You don't need to worry about that. Everyone has their own destiny, and you'll know when the time comes!"

"Hurry up and go down; now is the best time to enter the ancient tree!"

Dongfang Lie wiped the sweat from his face and urged Wang Xiaoyi to hurry up.

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Dongfang!"

After Wang Xiaoyi finished speaking, he went to the side of the passage and jumped into it.

The entire passageway was like a giant slide, and Wang Xiaoyi slid down for a full minute before stopping.

Before Wang Xiaoyi was a huge wood-attribute spiritual spring!

Unlike the small springs in the blessed land, this spiritual spring is a meter deep, like a huge bathhouse!

Wang Xiaoyi felt the immense vitality emanating from the air, and every cell in his body cheered with joy.

Wang Xiaoyi sat in the spiritual spring and began to circulate his cultivation technique!

Something strange happened!

When Wang Xiaoyi was cultivating in the spiritual spring, all five types of true qi liquid increased simultaneously.

However, when the technique was activated at this time, only the true qi liquid of the wood attribute began to increase.

At this moment, the wood-attribute true qi liquid in Wang Xiaoyi's dantian began to rise rapidly!

Unlike others whose true qi liquid is the size of a stream or lake, Wang Xiaoyi's true qi liquid covers a vast area, as boundless as the sea!

Even so, Wang Xiaoyi could feel the sea level of the True Qi Liquid rising rapidly!

Six hours later, Wang Xiaoyi's wood-attribute true qi liquid was completely filled! He really couldn't absorb a single trace of spiritual spring water!

Wang Xiaoyi stumbled and fell from the spiritual spring as if he were drunk.

At this moment, Wang Xiaoyi's cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment stage, and his four-dimensional attributes had surged by another 300 points!

"This time, my Qi Sea is truly full; it's almost overflowing!"

Wang Xiaoyi sensed the current state of his dantian and said with great emotion.

"I just don't know how to get out of the ancient tree!"

"Does this mean that after improving one's cultivation level, one still has to undergo some kind of test?" Wang Xiaoyi muttered to himself.

Just then, a door suddenly appeared in front of the wood-attribute spiritual spring.

Wang Xiaoyi emerged from the spiritual spring, pushed open the door, and went inside.

Hello, is anyone there?

Wang Xiaoyi saw an enormous room, estimated to be over 300 square meters and more than 5 meters high.

"That's strange, there's no one in the room!"

Just as Wang Xiaoyi was wondering, a human face appeared on the wall directly in front of him.

Hello, traveler from an unknown world!

An aged voice echoed in the empty room, startling Wang Xiaoyi.

"You...who are you?" Wang Xiaoyi asked in a somewhat frightened manner.

"How many years have passed?"

"You do not belong to [Kuragi Star]!"

"Since you've appeared here, it seems your planet has also been invaded by the Soul Eaters!" The human-faced voice was filled with helplessness.

"Kuragi Star? Soul Devourer Clan?" This was the first time Wang Xiaoyi had heard these two names.

"My planet is called [Blue Star]. Not long ago, about four months ago, a game called [Infinite Hunting Ground] was launched globally!"

"Two months ago, a beast-like version was loaded, and the people on Earth began to transform into beasts!"

"When I went out to explore, I saw this ancient tree that appeared out of nowhere!"

"Then we encountered the Voodoo Tribe and the Blazing Sun Tribe, which we had never seen before!"

Wang Xiaoyi eagerly recounted what had happened over the past four months.

"It seems you are still in the initial stages of your invasion; the planet's core has not yet been stripped away!"

"Kuragi Star is just like Earth, except that all the original inhabitants of Kuraki Star have had their memories erased!"

"It's pathetic that we've become NPCs in 'Infinite Hunting Grounds,' with specific data written into us to enrich the game content!" The human-faced man sighed deeply.

"This..." What Wang Xiaoyi heard completely overturned his worldview!

"The initial stage of the invasion! The core of the planet! Becoming an NPC!"

Wang Xiaoyi sorted through the keywords, his heart filled with shock.

"Where is Cangmu Star? And what is the purpose of the Soul Devouring Clan doing this?" Wang Xiaoyi was eager to know the truth.

"Kuragi Star..."

"Hahaha!" The face began to laugh wildly!

"The real Kuraki Star probably doesn't exist anymore!"

"After the Soul Eater Clan completely invaded, they plundered the core of Cangmu Star! The entire Cangmu Star lost its vitality and became a dead land!"

"The Soul Devourer Clan's goal is naturally to steal the planet's energy, thereby increasing their strength and extending their lifespan!"

Upon hearing this answer, Wang Xiaoyi felt a mix of emotions.

"If Cangmu Star has become a dead zone, what about the people of the Lieyang Tribe and the Wudu Tribe?"

"You're right, they're all dead! They're all dead!"

"All living things are dead!"

The faces on the wall, as if they had lost their minds, began to shout and scream, their angry voices echoing throughout the room!
