Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2143: 2143: Golden Ancestor Tree

While the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan and his companions felt utterly bewildered, the Patriarch, tasked with greeting visitors from outside, burst inside gasping for breath and bursting with thrill as he announced, “Ancestral Lord, Clan Leader, His Majesty the Ancestor Dragon Primordial Demon Bright Sky Emperor, he, he’s arrived!”

His Majesty the Ancestor Dragon Primordial Demon Bright Sky Emperor!

He’s arrived!

The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan froze for a moment before grasping the words, then shot to his feet, while the Clan Leader and all the Golden Treant Clan powerhouses felt a massive jolt of astonishment.

“What? You mean His Majesty the Ancestor Dragon Primordial Demon Bright Sky Emperor has come?!” The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan blurted out, his voice laced with raw excitement and utter disbelief.

“That’s right, His Majesty the Ancestor Dragon Primordial Demon Bright Sky Emperor is here, right outside the Main Hall!” the Patriarch replied, his tone buzzing with elation.

“Hurry, let’s go greet the Realm Lord!” The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan urged with fervor, and even as the words left his mouth, he bolted toward the Main Hall entrance.

The other Golden Treant Clan powerhouses snapped to attention and surged forward in a frenzy, all scrambling to lead the way.

Yang Xiaotian had gathered a huge following throughout the Celestial Realms, and even the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan held him in high regard.

Moments later, the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan spotted the blue-robed figure waiting just beyond the Main Hall doors.

His heart pounded wildly as he hurried over, dropping into a profound bow before Yang Xiaotian. “Realm Lord, Huang Rong couldn’t greet you properly from a distance—please pardon my oversight!”

The trailing Golden Treant Clan experts also bent low in reverence, their voices filled with eager delight as they offered their salutations.

Yang Xiaotian felt a twinge of surprise at the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan’s intense enthusiasm, considering how he himself ranked as a Supreme Overlord on the Eternal Realm List.

“Elder Huang, there’s no need for such formality,” Yang Xiaotian said, lifting him up before gesturing for the entire Golden Treant Clan group to stand.

The personal touch from Yang Xiaotian left the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan feeling profoundly honored.

“My gratitude, Realm Lord!” he exclaimed, still buzzing with joy.

With the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan and the others extending invitations brimming with respect and anticipation, Yang Xiaotian led his entourage of over a hundred into the Golden Treant Clan’s Main Hall.

Once inside, the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan urged Yang Xiaotian toward the seat of honor.

Yang Xiaotian accepted without hesitation, claiming the main position as the rightful Three Realms Lord.

Seated comfortably, Yang Xiaotian shared the reason behind his arrival with the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan.

Hearing that Yang Xiaotian had come to rescue their Golden Ancestor Tree, the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan surged with elation, leaping up to bow in gratitude before asking, “Your Majesty, should I guide you there immediately?”

“Very well,” Yang Xiaotian responded without delay. Guided by the Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan and his followers, alongside the Rain Demon and Abyss of Darkness experts, he headed off to inspect the Golden Ancestor Tree.

They soared through the air nonstop until reaching the heart of the Golden Treant Clan’s territory, where the Golden Ancestor Tree stood revealed.

The Golden Ancestor Tree, once radiant in its golden sheen, now appeared utterly devoid of that luster. Its bark, previously gleaming gold, had shriveled entirely, while the leaves that shimmered gold before had faded to dull gray and yellow, blanketing the ground in decay.

A horrifying punch mark scarred the trunk.

This punch mark stemmed clearly from the Dead Man Clan Ancestor’s strike.

Within the punch mark, waves of death energy lingered ominously.

This death energy kept spreading relentlessly toward the roots, leaves, and every part of the Golden Ancestor Tree.

The Dead Man Clan Ancestor’s death energy, tinged in eerie gray-green, ranked among the deadliest forces known, boasting devastating corrosion and absorption effects. Even a Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer Realm Saint would dissolve into rot upon contact.

Typical Heavenly Dao Realm Saints found it impossible to draw near such death energy.

Yang Xiaotian advanced steadily.

The death energy in the punch mark detected his presence and coalesced into a swirling mass, charging straight at him.

Confronting the oncoming death energy, Yang Xiaotian stayed utterly composed. The Twenty-four Bright Wings unfolded behind him, unleashing a force that made the assaulting energy wail in terror before fleeing back into the tree cavity and cowering in the trunk’s crevices.

With that sight, Yang Xiaotian drew closer to the tree cavity.

At this point, clearing every trace of death energy from the trunk became essential. Only then could he channel the supreme life force from his Ultimate Life Holy Body and Primordial Life Holy Body to restore the Golden Ancestor Tree.

He pressed his palms against the trunk.

As Yang Xiaotian’s hands touched the trunk, the death energy inside attempted to invade through his palms. Yet Yang Xiaotian invoked the Twenty-four Bright Wings’ might, unleashing radiant light from his hands that cleansed the encroaching death energy amid its agonized cries.

With Yang Xiaotian’s command, the Twenty-four Bright Wings’ power flooded ceaselessly into every inch of the Golden Ancestor Tree’s trunk.

Beneath the Bright Wings’ influence, the death energy permeating the trunk of the Golden Ancestor Tree began to dissolve away steadily.

The Golden Treant Clan experts observed the scene with bated breath and mounting suspense.

Before long, the death energy in the trunk and concealed within the leaves of the Golden Ancestor Tree vanished entirely, save for the persistent remnants lodged deep in the roots.

Still, the death energy in the roots proved fiercely unyielding, erecting a tough shield that stubbornly fended off Yang Xiaotian’s Bright Wings power.

The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan held his breath tight, fists clenched in anxiety. The Primordial Holy Master had previously purged the death energy from the trunk and leaves too, yet failed to eradicate it from the roots completely.

In time, that root-bound death energy would creep outward once more.

Without fully banishing the death energy from the roots, every previous step would amount to nothing.

Noting the death energy’s defiance in the roots, Yang Xiaotian amplified the Bright Wings’ intensity. The Twenty-four Bright Wings blazed with dazzling brilliance, their overwhelming light crashing down like a raging surge to demolish the defiant death energy.

In short order, every bit of death energy rooted in the depths was utterly cleansed.

Joy exploded among the Golden Treant Clan experts, their triumphant shouts filling the air.

Next, Yang Xiaotian unleashed the life force of the Ultimate Life Holy Body, channeling it steadily into the trunk. Simultaneously, he called forth the Primordial Life Tree, merging its vital essence into the Golden Ancestor Tree.

The Golden Ancestor Tree’s trunk, teetering on the brink of demise, started to pulse with renewed strength and shine, its leaves regaining their golden glow and even budding fresh golden foliage.

At last, the Golden Ancestor Tree’s life force roared back like an ocean in full tide, radiating waves of golden brilliance.

“Success!” The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan, witnessing the Golden Ancestor Tree’s full revival, leaped about in sheer ecstasy.

Only after confirming the Golden Ancestor Tree’s vitality had returned did Yang Xiaotian cease his efforts.

“Your Majesty, endless thanks for bringing the Golden Ancestor Tree back to life!” The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan rushed forward in excitement, dropping into a deep bow of appreciation.

The rest of the Golden Treant Clan experts followed suit, bowing low in unison.

Yang Xiaotian dismissed the gesture with a casual wave and a grin. “No thanks necessary—I came here partly for your Golden Treant Clan’s reward, after all.”

The Ancestor of the Golden Treant Clan paused in surprise, then hastened to reply, “I’ll fetch those thirty-six Golden Holy Fruits for Your Majesty without delay.”
