Chapter 731 We Believe in You
Luo Li took the branch and felt that it exuded an extremely pure power, as if it could dispel all the haze in the world.
Lingche suddenly came over, "Mother! The Tree of Life is already like this, and you still don't want to tell me anything!"
The Queen of the Spirit World glanced at him and said calmly, "I am receiving guests. Please leave."
"I won't!" Ling Che stiffened his neck. "Mother, if you give her the purest branches, the condition of the Tree of Life will only get worse. You have to think about the spirit world!"
"How dare you!" The Spirit World Queen's voice suddenly turned cold. "Do you really need to interfere with my decision?"
Lingche was frightened by his mother's aura and took a few steps back, his eyes full of unwillingness and anxiety.
He looked at the branch in Luo Li's hand, and the pure light seemed to be dazzling in his eyes.
He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he still stubbornly straightened his back, his eyes red, like a young animal forced into a corner, his whole body emitting waves of unwillingness.
Luo Li's grip slowly tightened as she looked at the Queen of the Spirit Realm. "Master, tell me the truth, how long can the current Tree of Life last?"
The Queen of the Spirit World pondered for a moment and said, "Ten years."
Luo Li was shocked. "This is the sacred tree of the Spirit World. It has existed since the beginning of the Spirit World. How could the situation be so bad now?!"
Ling Ji was also a little bit unbelievable, "When the accident happened, didn't the high priest protect it?"
Wu You said helplessly, "I resisted most of the erosion, but a lot of it still entered the Tree of Life. I have been trying to remove the erosion from the Tree of Life for a while, but it has no effect."
He looked at Luo Li, "The only hope now is that you can take that thing out of the secret realm. Perhaps you can reshape the Tree of Life."
Luo Li frowned and asked, "What on earth is it?"
Wu You shook his head. "This is a prophecy revealed by the Tree of Life. We only know that it is in a secret place, and only you can bring it out."
Luo Li really found it a bit absurd. He knew that what they needed was in the secret realm, and even knew when the secret realm would appear, but he didn't know what it was.
Even if it was a prophecy, it shouldn't have been predicted to be like this.
Wu You sighed, "The Tree of Life only revealed this information to Your Majesty and me. If we could provide more details, we would naturally tell you directly. But unfortunately, the Tree of Life only told us this information."
Luo Li waved her hand. "Forget it. Now is not the time to dwell on this. I want to ask, how much of an impact will my taking this branch have on the spirit world?"
She lowered her eyes and gazed at the branches of the Tree of Life in her hands. Emerald green light danced at her fingertips, as if containing endless vitality.
The Queen of the Spirit Realm spoke, "Spirit Master, don't overthink it. Since I promised to hand him over to you, it means that I can definitely stabilize the situation within ten years."
"The secret realm will appear in the Myriad Beasts Continent six years after the Spirit Realm. When that time comes, as long as you bring us what we need, or we find a way to get it, the Spirit Realm will surely survive this crisis safely."
Ling Che said angrily, "But if she can't bring it over in six years, what will happen to the spirit world?"
The Queen of the Spirit World looked at her proudest son and sighed, "Xiao Che, don't you understand yet? Even if we don't give it to her, the Tree of Life can only last for a hundred years at most. If there's no solution after a hundred years, the Spirit World will still be destroyed and swallowed by this black energy!"
A hint of unwillingness and struggle flashed in Lingche's eyes, and his clenched fists trembled slightly.
Lingji's expression was no longer as cheerful as before. He was silent and solemn, his eyes full of worry.
Suddenly, a strong wind swept in, blowing up yellow sand all over the sky. The black air seemed to be within reach, hovering above the Tree of Life, as if it would swallow the Tree of Life at any time.
The Queen of the Spirit World closed her eyes, and a crystal teardrop slid down from the corner of her eye and fell onto the scepter she was holding tightly, flashing with a sad light.
Luo Li promised, "Since I have promised, I will definitely do it. Lord, don't worry, I will come to the Spirit Realm and hand him over to you as soon as I come out of the secret realm."
Wu You said in a gentle voice, "We believe you."
The Queen of the Spirit World also said, "No matter what, even if it's for the sake of the Spirit World, we will protect the Ten Thousand Beasts Continent."
Luo Li glanced at the black energy spreading outside the barrier in the sky, "Can't you repel the black energy?"
Ling Ji sighed, "Although the purification technique has some effect on this black energy, its effect is really limited. If someone is injured, the purification technique can completely purify it, but this black energy that directly envelops the spirit world, the purification technique is really useless."
The Queen of the Spirit Realm sighed, "You should take the branch of the Tree of Life back to the Myriad Beasts Continent now. We will be here, waiting for you to bring back what we need."
Luo Li lowered her eyes, "Perhaps I have a way to make the Tree of Life in better condition."
Wu You's eyes flickered. "If it was the former Da Ling Lord, then of course it could be done, but Ling Lord, you are still young, and judging by your spiritual patterns, you probably haven't accepted the full inheritance yet..."
"Give me two days," Luo Li raised her eyes and said firmly, "I won't force it if I don't find a solution."
"Okay," said the Queen of the Spirit World, "I will arrange a palace for the Spirit Master."
Luo Li nodded, "Thank you for troubling me, Realm Master."
The Queen of the Spirit Realm said helplessly, "You are the current Spirit Master of the Great Wilderness Spirit Martial Ancient Clan, so just call me Lingjun."
Luo Li smiled and said, "As a junior, I naturally cannot address the Realm Master by his name. So I'll just call him Senior Realm Master."
Ling Jun didn't hesitate, "Okay then."
Luo Li nodded, "Then I will go back first, and I will give you an answer in two days."
"Okay." The Queen of the Spirit World also smiled and said, "I still have some things to take care of today. I will treat you properly in two days."
She glanced at Ling Che, who was still furious, sighed, and turned to look at Ling Ji, "Xiao Ji, take Ling Zhu to the Moon Viewing Palace next to my palace."
Hearing this, Ling Ji nodded slightly. She blinked at Luo Li, turned around and made a gesture of invitation to her. Her eyes seemed to contain tiny points of light, warm and bright.
Luo Li followed her out of the Tree of Life's residence. On the way, Ling Ji whispered, "Luo...Lingzhu, was our meeting planned by you the day you came to Twilight City?"
Her eyes were somewhat complicated. Could it be that he just wanted to use them to come to the Spirit Palace?
"No," Luo Li said bluntly, as if jokingly, "I just saw that you two had extraordinary temperaments and were very handsome, and thought you would be easy to talk to, so I thought of asking some questions."
Lingji burst out laughing, and the awkward feeling disappeared.
She said with some anger, "You have a good eye, you picked both of us at first sight."
