Suddenly, the sky burst into a myriad of rays of light, a magnificent hue stained the entire sky red. All beings in the three realms were horrified. This anomalous phenomenon heralded the arrival of a rare treasure.
Undercurrents are surging in the three realms of humans, demons, and immortals, and various forces are secretly planning, vowing to seize this legendary spiritual plant treasure.
"Hey, have you heard? The Boundary-Breaking Epiphyllum has actually bloomed!" People in the market were talking about it.
"Of course! Everyone knows that a flower blooms only once every million years."
"I never thought that an old man like me would be able to learn about the blooming of the Boundary Breaking Pill before I die."
"Alas, it seems the world is going to be in chaos again. I wonder who will be able to obtain this precious spiritual plant."
"Who knows? Anyway, it's not ordinary people like us."
"I heard that the immortals in heaven have come down to earth and gone to Tanshan."
At this time, someone was eager to try: "Should we give it a try? After all, if anyone gets the Boundary-Breaking Epiphyllum and eats it, even if you are a pig, you can become an immortal in one step."
"Fight? You're dreaming!" others scoffed. "Those powerful immortal cultivators and demons have already gathered at Tanshan. I'm afraid you'll be crushed to dust by the immortals' pressure before you even reach the foot of the mountain."
"Even if you can't get it, its leaves will do. I heard that just one bite of its leaves or rhizomes can revive the dead and turn bones into flesh. It can cure all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. Not to mention poisoning, even drinking Hedinghong can save you."
"Hey, what you said. Do you think those monks will leave you a leaf?"
At this time, countless people on Mount Tan who heard the news wanted to obtain this treasure. Some of them were even immortals in the sky. Even the Demon Lord sent people to attack Mount Tan, and for a time, the entire Mount Tan was in a bloody storm.
Beneath the deep Tanshan Waterfall, a crystal-clear Epiphyllum blooms quietly in the center of the pool. It radiates a soft and pure light, forming an invisible barrier that keeps out those greedy coveters.
However, there are always some powerful people with profound cultivation who can break through this natural line of defense.
Outside the waterfall, there were flashes of swords and bloody storms as masters from all walks of life fought fiercely for the legendary boundary-breaking Tan Zheng.
In this chaotic moment, Yu Ze's figure appeared before everyone like a ghost. He simply raised his hand and waved it, and the scene suddenly fell into an eerie stillness. All those fighting were frozen in place as if under a spell.
Yu Ze's cold gaze swept across the greedy faces, then he turned and walked towards the Boundary-Breaking Epiphyllum in the center of the pond. His footsteps lightly touched the surface of the water, and wherever he passed, the water instantly froze into ice, forming a crystal-clear ice path.
When he finally arrived in front of the Epiphyllum, he saw a naked baby curled up in the center of the pistil.
Seeing this scene, the system sighed, "As expected of an SSS-level world plane. It's a devastating start at birth, just like this little baby's physique. If it weren't for the master, Xie Qi might have been divided up and eaten by this group of people in the next second."
Yu Ze sighed softly, gently took off his outer robe, and carefully wrapped the baby in the flowers.
The moment he picked up the baby, the originally pure and flawless World-Breaking Flower suddenly withered and died at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a wisp of flying ash and dissipated in the air.
The faces of those who were frozen were filled with shock and disbelief. They had never imagined that the legendary world-breaking Epiphyllum could actually cultivate into a human form. This fact completely overturned their understanding.
Even though plants can absorb spiritual energy and cultivate into humans, they never expected that the World-Breaking Epiphyllum could also cultivate into a human. This has never happened before.
Yu Ze indifferently glanced at the frozen crowd, his voice calm but unquestionable: "You can move in an hour. This Boundary Breaker Tan has already cultivated to adulthood and will be my disciple from now on."
The crowd erupted in a commotion. Someone gnashed their teeth and shouted, "What apprentice? You clearly want to fatten me up before eating me!"
Another voice was unwilling to give in: "Who are you? Let me go, I want to fight you fair and square!"
The most piercing sound was the roar of the Demon Lord: "Break the World Tan is mine! Even if I transform into a human form, I will devour you alive!"
Before he finished speaking, Yu Ze suddenly stopped in his tracks. His current goal was to protect Xie Qi and teach him how to become the strongest person in the world.
So when he heard the words of the Demon Lord, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to eliminate this hidden danger that might endanger Xie Qi's resurrection.
Yu Ze slowly turned, his icy gaze piercing the Demon Lord like a sharp sword. He raised his hand slightly, and an invisible force instantly swept out.
Wherever the violent air currents passed, demons and the demon king's minions were reduced to ashes. When the air currents swept through the people of the human and immortal realms, they closed their eyes in fear, expecting them to be reduced to ashes like the demons. But they found themselves completely unharmed.
At this time, everyone realized that those who were killed were all evil demons, and the dreaded Demon Lord had turned into a cold corpse.
Even more frightening was the fact that several immortals were also unable to break free from Yu Ze's restraints. At this moment, everyone deeply felt the despairing strength of this mysterious and powerful being.
Yu Ze withdrew his hand, looked at the others, and said, "He has transformed into a human and is now a living being, no longer the spiritual plant you speak of. From now on, I will personally raise him. If anyone dares to take advantage of him, please consult me first."
Yu Ze left after he finished speaking, and no one else dared to stop him.
Yu Ze cradled the sleeping baby in his arms as he slowly walked down the mountain. The night breeze rustled his hair, bringing a hint of coolness. He looked down at the little face that looked exactly like Xie Qi's as a child, and a mixture of emotions washed over him.
The last time he took care of the baby, Xie's family helped, but now he is the only one left to face this heavy responsibility alone.
Moreover, if Pojie Tan cultivates to become a human, it will not be long before the three realms know about it. Some cruel people will not even care whether he cultivates to become a human or not, and will not let go of the idea of getting Xie Qi.
Yu Ze knew better than anyone that Xie Qi was a treasure from head to toe. Even a strand of his hair could help a cultivator improve his cultivation by several levels.
Therefore, it is very difficult to protect Xie Qi from being spied on and captured by others.
At this time, the mountain fog was getting thicker, and Yu Ze subconsciously wrapped the baby tighter. He remembered Xie Qi's parting words "I like you", which still lingered in his mind like a mystery.
But now is not the time to worry about these things. The most urgent task is to protect Xie Qi in the dangerous world of cultivation, and then raise him to become the strongest person in this world.
