Qin Feng stared at Xuan Guang in astonishment, his heart filled with disbelief.

He originally thought that Xuan Guang was the spirit of the World Tree and should have absolute control over the World Tree, but now Xuan Guang claimed that he was just a child born from the World Tree, which surprised Qin Feng.

Xuan Guang seemed to sense Qin Feng's doubts. He smiled slightly and then explained softly, "Although I am the spirit of the World Tree, I cannot actually fully control it."

"The World Tree possesses its own independent consciousness; it is the true ruler."

"As for me, I can only move freely within the World Tree's space; I can't do anything else."

After listening to Xuan Guang's explanation, Qin Feng nodded thoughtfully, but a hint of confusion still lingered in his eyes.

He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly looked directly at Xuan Guang and asked, "By the way, why are you helping me?"

"Is it really true, as you said before, that you had no ulterior motives whatsoever?"

Qin Feng didn't believe that Xuan Guang would help him obtain the Primordial Purple Qi without asking for anything in return, after all, this was an extremely precious treasure.

Faced with Qin Feng's questioning, Xuan Guang's smile remained gentle. He answered slowly, "I really don't have any other purpose. I just find you pleasing to the eye."

Qin Feng was clearly not satisfied with this answer. He curled his lip in disapproval, thinking to himself, "Who would believe such a thing?"

However, he also understood that pressing further might not yield a more truthful answer.

So he stopped pressing the matter and simply said, "If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine."

Immediately, Qin Feng headed towards the cave ahead.

Just as Qin Feng reached the vicinity of the cave, a powerful aura suddenly surged out from it, as if a giant beast sealed for thousands of years was about to awaken.

Qin Feng was startled and immediately stopped, watching the entrance of the cave warily.

Just as he was completely focused, a purple light shot out of the cave like lightning.

Qin Feng looked closely and saw that it was a miniature purple dragon. Its body was only the size of a palm, but it was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it swept past Qin Feng's ear.

"Primordial Purple Qi!"

Qin Feng thought to himself, he was very familiar with this mysterious aura, after all, he had just absorbed a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi not long ago.

Before Qin Feng could react, the mini dragon had already transformed into a streak of purple light and sped away into the distance.

Seeing that the Primordial Purple Qi was about to escape, how could Qin Feng be willing to give up?

He instantly transformed into a streak of light and gave chase.

Qin Feng was incredibly fast, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, but the mini dragon was exceptionally agile, constantly changing direction in the air, making it difficult for Qin Feng to catch up for a while.

Just as Qin Feng was getting annoyed, a white light suddenly appeared beside him.

Qin Feng looked closely and realized it was Xuan Guang.

"Although this Primordial Purple Qi possesses spirituality, I can lend you a hand." Xuan Guang smiled slightly, his hands quickly forming hand seals as he chanted incantations.

As Xuan Guang chanted his incantation, a mysterious light shot out from his hand, like a golden rope, accurately enveloping the mini dragon.

After being enveloped in the mysterious light, the miniature dragon's speed noticeably slowed down.

Seeing this, Qin Feng was overjoyed and immediately sped up, pouncing on the mini dragon like a hungry tiger.

Qin Feng's eyes were like torches as he stared intently at the mini dragon. With a sudden, lightning-fast flick of his right hand, he instantly gripped the mini dragon tightly in his hand.

After being caught by Qin Feng, the mini dragon struggled desperately.

Its small body twisted and turned in Qin Feng's palm, and the purple light on its body flickered erratically as it tried to break free from Qin Feng's restraint.

"Little brat, behave yourself!" Qin

Seeing this, Feng snorted coldly and casually waved his hand, casting a mysterious sealing spell on the mini dragon.

In an instant, the mini dragon seemed to be frozen in place, suddenly stopping its struggles and no longer moving, lying quietly in Qin Feng's palm.

Then, an astonishing scene unfolded—the mini dragon gradually melted in Qin Feng's hand, eventually transforming into a wisp of primordial purple energy.

Just as Qin Feng had subdued the mini dragon, Xuan Guang appeared silently in front of him like a ghost.

"Do you intend to refine this Primordial Purple Qi here?" Xuan Guang asked Qin Feng expressionlessly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng slowly turned his head, stared at Xuan Guang, and asked with a slight smile, "You still intend to use the laws of time to help me?"

Xuan Guang's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as he softly said, "If you need it, I will naturally help you."

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp as a knife, staring directly at Xuan Guang's face, as if trying to see through his calm exterior to his true thoughts.

Xuan Guang stared calmly at Qin Feng, his eyes as deep and unfathomable as a still pool.

He spoke slowly, his voice calm and gentle: "You still don't trust me?"

Qin Feng made no attempt to hide his thoughts; his answer was straightforward and direct: "That's right! I don't trust you!"

Xuan Guang's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

He didn't seem surprised by Qin Feng's answer; on the contrary, he appeared quite composed.

"Fine! Since you don't trust me, I'll leave now!" Xuan Guang said, turning to leave.

"Wait!" Qin Feng called out to Xuan Guang as soon as he saw this.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Guang immediately stopped, turned around, looked at Qin Feng, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage and asked, "Does the World Tree Space still contain Primordial Purple Qi?"

Xuan Guang's smile widened. He chuckled and said, "Didn't you distrust me? Why are you asking me now?"

Qin Feng's expression instantly turned somewhat awkward; he knew his question was somewhat contradictory.

However, he did not evade the question, but answered very frankly: "Although I don't trust you, at least you haven't lied to me yet, have you?"

Xuan Guang pouted. "You're quite frank!"

Then, Xuan Guang returned to the main topic and said, "There are still two wisps of Primordial Purple Qi in the central region of the World Tree!"

"However, I'm not capable of taking you there this time!"

"Because there is a powerful protective barrier there, and I am not capable of breaking through it with my current abilities!"

Qin Feng blinked, looking at Xuan Guang with a half-smile and questioning, "Really? Didn't you just say you could freely travel through the World Tree space?"
