　　Upon closer inspection and careful observation, the tree seemed only larger and more luxuriant than usual, with nothing else particularly remarkable.
　　Yet, Ye Wushuang immediately recognized that this ancient tree… was an extremely rare Enlightenment Spirit Tree！
　　The Enlightenment Spirit Tree is a miraculous tree that embodies the principles and patterns of heaven and earth.
　　Such spirit trees are not fixed to any specific species.
　　It might originally be just an ordinary pine, cypress, or peach tree, growing in exceptionally fertile spiritual soil imbued with celestial patterns and earthly principles. Over time, as the sun and moon shifted and mountains and rivers transformed, the tree absorbed the evolution of these cosmic truths, integrating them into its being.
　　Such ancient trees are all referred to as Enlightenment Spirit Trees.
　　If one meditates and cultivates beneath such a tree, it offers extraordinary benefits for breaking through bottlenecks and advancing one’s cultivation.
　　Zhou Yuan clearly recognized it too, examining the ancient tree without saying a word.
　　Ye Wushuang stood under the ancient tree, his mind and spirit unified, as the spiritual energy within him pulsed according to a unique cultivation method.
　　Soon, he sensed a unique Dao rhythm flowing from the ancient tree.
　　”As expected…”
　　Ye Wushuang’s heart calmed.
　　Pei Wenjie and Xuan Yutang also led their people to inspect the area around the ancient tree.
　　But after carefully observing for a while, neither of them discovered anything.
　　Meanwhile, Huang Yu was still marveling at how enormous the tree was.
　　Ye Wushuang didn’t stand still for long before turning his gaze to the other side of the tree, pretending he hadn’t grasped its value at all.
　　At this, Xuan Yutang and Pei Wenjie hesitated no further. After some thought, they led their people away from the spiritual grove and headed toward a row of wooden huts on the right side of the main path.
　　They truly couldn’t discern any mystery in this ancient tree.
　　By now, Ye Wushuang stood beneath the ancient tree, near its roots, and with a flip of his palm, a small tower appeared.
　　The Nine-Layered Divine Suppression Tower.
　　Previously, within the first layer of the Nine-Layered Divine Suppression Tower, Ye Wushuang had stored the Immortal Fusang Tree.
　　Now, the Immortal Fusang Tree and the Kirin Blood Vine had merged into one.
　　The Blood Vine clung to the Immortal Fusang Tree, and between them seemed to exist a rather mystical connection.
　　During this time, the primordial power within the first layer of the Nine-Layered Divine Suppression Tower remained overwhelmingly abundant.
　　Ye Wushuang, relying on the combined lifeblood released by the Undying Fusang Tree and the Kirin Blood Vine, could slightly mobilize a portion of the primordial power for his own use without consuming his lifespan.
　　Of course, to mobilize more and unleash greater power, he would still need to expend his lifespan.
　　However, depleting one’s lifespan is quite damaging to one’s foundation, and recovering afterward would require a vast amount of rare and precious natural treasures.
　　Therefore, unless it was a life-or-death situation with no other choice, Ye Wushuang almost never used the primordial power.
　　As the Nine-Layered Divine Suppression Tower reappeared, Ye Wushuang pressed the small tower against the trunk of the ancient tree.
　　The　next　moment…
　　A rumbling sound erupted.
　　The ancient tree was uprooted, shaking the earth.
　　In the distance, Xuan Yutang, Pei Wenjie, and the others turned to witness this scene, their expressions frozen in shock.
　　The colossal ancient tree trembled gradually before vanishing into Ye Wushuang’s palm.
　　Xuan Yutang couldn’t help but laugh, “It seems neither of us noticed the mystery of that ancient tree, but Ye Wushuang saw through it.”
　　Pei Wenjie remained calm and indifferent, saying, “If we couldn’t discern its peculiarity, even if we took it, we wouldn’t be able to use it. If he could see it, that’s his skill.”
　　Pei Wenjie had no intention of seizing it.
　　After all, this place is quite strange, with many good things they haven’t obtained yet. There’s no need to take risks and snatch anything now.
　　The enormous ancient tree vanished without a trace.
　　Huang Yu was startled and looked at Ye Wushuang in astonishment, asking, “Young Master Ye, did you uproot this tree and store it away？”
　　”Hmm…”
　　”What kind of tree is this？ What’s so special about it？”
　　Faced with Huang Yu’s inquiry, Ye Wushuang did not respond.
　　Zhou Yuan chuckled and said, “Why are you asking so many questions, kid？ Maybe Brother Ye just thought the tree looked nice and wanted to transplant it home to plant, so he could enjoy its shade in the summer？”
　　Hearing this, Huang Yu was taken aback and didn’t say anything more.
　　Enjoy　its　shade？
　　Yeah, right.
　　Even Xuan Yutang and Pei Wenjie couldn’t spot anything unusual, yet Ye Wushuang did. It was indeed strange.
　　At this moment, within the depths of his mind, on the first floor of the Nine-Layered Divine Suppression Tower, the Undying Fusang Tree and the Kirin Blood Vine intertwined as the massive Enlightening Spirit Tree suddenly appeared, its roots taking hold in the ground of the first floor.
　　For a brief moment, the three spiritual plants seemed to form a standoff.
　　After all, the Undying Fusang Tree and the Kirin Blood Vine had also been in a standoff initially, but over time, they had twisted together.
　　Now, with a new companion joining them, the two were naturally quite wary.
　　Ye Wushuang didn’t bother with anything else. This Enlightenment Spirit Tree could provide immense assistance during his upcoming cultivation.
　　One could say that even the dozens of spiritual fruits they picked couldn’t compare in value to this ancient tree.
　　The three of them left the woods and headed toward a cluster of wooden huts on the right.
　　”It seems Young Master Ye has gained quite a lot.”
　　Seeing Ye Wushuang approach, Xuan Yutang couldn’t help but smile and ask, “I wonder what mysteries that ancient tree holds？”
　　Ye Wushuang smiled faintly and replied, “It looks decent to me. I’m thinking of transplanting it to my Holy Heaven Sect as a scenic feature.”
　　Faced with Ye Wushuang’s nonsensical answer, Xuan Yutang chuckled and didn’t press further.
　　The three parties each explored the clusters of wooden huts.
　　These huts were scattered haphazardly across various areas, surrounded by fences, grassy patches, and some flower beds.
　　It looked just like a small village.
　　Arriving in front of one hut, they opened the wooden door and stepped inside, only to be greeted by a wave of dusty air.
　　Along with the dusty air came a musty smell that made people feel quite uncomfortable.
　　Huang Yu waved away the dust and peered into the hut.
　　”Oh　my　god！”
　　Stumbling backward, Huang Yu fell to the ground with a thud, his face pale and his body trembling uncontrollably.
　　Ye Wushuang and Zhou Yuan stood on either side of Huang Yu, their gazes also fixed on the interior of the house, their expressions similarly stunned.
