On the other side, it was a few minutes ago.

Gu Wanqing held a lilac magic sword in her hand, and crossed the air in a volley, every step she took was a lotus under her feet, splashing ripples in the air.

With her dress fluttering, she arrived at her destination.

In front of her, there was an ancient tree.

The ancient trees are towering and high into the clouds.

Under the tree, Gu Wanqing only felt that the branches and leaves of the ancient tree seemed to cover the entire sky. The trunk of the ancient tree looks like a pillar of heaven.

"It's finally here." Gu Wanqing breathed a long sigh of relief.

As Lin Nan said.

Although she had never been to this secret realm, over the years, she had already learned a lot about the secret realm from Shi Yi and other fellow Tianjiao.

And one of them is the ancient tree in front of you.

The ancient tree is called the "Tree of Life and Death".

Every 300 years, the Dao Tree of Life and Death will wither and die once, and after another 300 years, it will become lush again, just like a dead tree coming to life.

And every time you experience "life and death", a "life and death path fruit" will be born on the tree of life and death.

The fruit of life and death, the Tao level is a product.

Although this fruit is useless to the monks of the Four Realms of the Emperor, if the monks of the Four Realms of Heaven take it, it can strengthen their understanding, so that they can cultivate without any future troubles!

In order to train the Holy Sect Tianjiao Sect who had entered the secret realm, the Holy Sect set up many challenges around the heavenly and earthly treasures of the secret realm.

But it's different.

Around the Dao Tree of Life and Death, not only are there no fierce beasts, realm slaves, or legal puppets guarding it, but as long as the time is right!

No matter what kind of cultivator you are here, you can go straight to the end of the tree and obtain the fruits of life and death!

And the reason why it's so simple is because......

The fruit of life and death is not something that can be eaten if you want to.

Although this thing can improve cultivation, it will also make the monks under it experience a cycle of life and death, just like the Dao Tree of Life and Death!

It's a matter of their own life and death, how many people dare to come nonsense?

What's more! This kind of reincarnation is still established under the condition that the monk's Taoist heart is firm!

If the heart of the Dao is not strong, after taking the Dao fruit, there is only death, no life! Even if you are lucky enough to succeed in resurrection, you will not be able to bear the pain of life and death, and you will fall into madness!

"Dead?"

The moment this word appeared in her mind, Gu Wanqing couldn't help but tremble.

Shi Yi had repeatedly warned her that if she had the opportunity to enter the secret realm of Dao, she should never fight the idea of this life and death realm, because the risk was too great.

Gu Wanqing thought the same way before.

She is gifted with demons and has the posture of an empress, so naturally she doesn't need to break through with the help of this life and death Dao fruit.

But now, she has no choice.

At the moment when Xu Ze showed her earth-shattering talent and cultivation, not only was her arrogance shattered, but she also had an unprecedented sense of impatience in her heart.

This impatience told her over and over again.

She was not reconciled.

Unwilling to look up to Xu Ze, unwilling to be left behind by Xu Ze! Even more unwilling......

The husband who used to follow her footsteps was actually at a certain height that she was temporarily difficult to reach, looking down at her with an unusually indifferent gaze!

Gu Wanqing knew it clearly.

There is only one way to make this unwillingness disappear......

That's to prove yourself!

"Whew~"

Slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, Gu Wanqing looked in the direction of the teleportation Xuanmen.

After calculating the time, she guessed that Xu Ze and the others should have also arrived in the secret realm.

Before entering the secret realm, Shi Yi had told her.

The reason why Xu Ze came to the secret realm was because he was worried about her......

At first, Gu Wanqing was still a little happy about this, but soon she realized that what Shi Yi said was probably not the truth.

Because judging from the previous events, she is now just a stranger who turns a blind eye to Xu Ze.

In that case, why should she be bored?

After shaking her head, Gu Wanqing stopped thinking nonsense.

Taking a deep breath, her figure slowly floated up, and she went up the body of the Tree of Life and Death.

All the way through the thick and dense clouds, until the air around her had become cold, the flourishing branches and leaves of the Dao Tree clearly came into her view.

Hovering in the air, Gu Wanqing's eyes probed around, and soon her eyes lit up.

I saw that in the deepest part of the branches and leaves, there was a palm-sized fruit.

The fruit hangs from the branches of the tree, surrounded by many leaves, and the strange shape of the fruit sometimes takes on a vibrant green, sometimes it becomes gray and dead.

This is the fruit of life and death!

Before and after the quick up, Gu Wanqing took off the Dao Fruit with a sword and carefully held it in the palm of his hand.

At the same time, a string of words appeared in front of her eyes.

[Dao-level item detected!] 】

[Does the host want to recharge?] 】

The moment the words appeared, Gu Wanqing was taken aback!

"No top-up!"

Without the slightest hesitation, she blurted out.

Worried that she would be forced to recharge by the system like last time, she hurriedly put the Dao Fruit into the storage ring.

Now Gu Wanqing has thought about it.

Although she thinks that if she continues to watch the memory screen, she should be able to know why Xu Ze has such cultivation and talent.

But!

Even if you know this, what can you do?

Can she and Xu Ze reconcile on this? Can what happened be erased?

The answer is, no.

After all, everything is just a flash in the pan.

Again.

Every time she watches the memory picture, she will feel strong self-blame and guilt! As a result, my mind will be disturbed and I will do something that is boring for myself!

She didn't want to repeat the same mistakes!

What's more!

Gu Wanqing realized that her system was a pit!

Aside from the need to recharge the viewing memory, just say a little!

The last time she recharged to watch the memory, the system clearly said that there would be a special utility after recharging, but what was the result?

Nothing happened!

Therefore, Gu Wanqing had already decided that from now on, she would treat this system as if it did not exist, no matter what the system said or did, she would not watch Xu Ze's memories again!

If it weren't for the fact that this place was not suitable for taking the Dao Fruit of Life and Death, the moment the text of the system appeared, she would have eaten the Dao Fruit of Life and Death!

Seeing that after her refusal, the system fell into dead silence again, Gu Wanqing breathed a long sigh of relief.

She was really worried that the system would ignore her thoughts and directly force her to recharge and force her to watch the memory screen.

Fortunately, that didn't happen.

"Just in case, I still need to find a suitable place as soon as possible to take the Dao Fruit of Life and Death." Gu Wanqing muttered.

With that, she sank and quickly reached the ground below.

But at the moment she landed!

Bang –

A breath visible to the naked eye suddenly appeared, forming a wave of air, coming from a distance!

Affected by the aura, not only Gu Wanqing's face turned white, but even the Dao Tree of Life and Death behind her couldn't help but shake!

"The power of heaven and earth?!" Gu Wanqing was shocked, and instinctively looked in the direction where the breath came from.

She soon found out.

That direction is actually where the teleportation gate is located! That is where Xu Ze and the others should be at this moment!

"Xu Ze, are you crazy?"

Gu Wanqing couldn't help but exclaim.

She expected that Xu Ze and the others might have encountered some crisis, so Xu Ze released Tianwei and wanted to fight!

Knowing that the consequences of this move would be strangled by the Heaven and Earth Great Array of the Secret Realm, Gu Wanqing was instantly anxious.

Things were as she expected.

As the power of heaven and earth became stronger and stronger, the great array of heaven and earth really appeared, and it began to brew a terrifying power!

This made Gu Wanqing's face turn white.

She faintly felt that such a terrifying power, let alone a celestial, even if it was a celestial venerable, it would be unbearable!

If it was someone else who was in danger at this time, Gu Wanqing would inevitably flee away for fear of being affected.

Can Xu Ze?

Although the two have separated, she can't watch Xu Ze die tragically!

Gu Wanqing knew that with her own cultivation, she would definitely not be able to help Xu Ze. But things are not out of the question.

And this method is her "companion emperor source"!

This is her most important hole card, and if she uses it, she can make herself have a hint of the emperor's breath.

It's just a hint, but it's no exaggeration.

As soon as this trace of the emperor's breath came out, under the saint, no one could help her!

Of course, there are pros and cons to everything.

The Companion Emperor Source can only be used up to three times! If this limit is exceeded, the emperor source will be consumed, and the possibility of becoming the emperor will be lost!

Gu Wanqing is sure.

If she rushes to Xu Ze's side and then uses the Emperor Yuan, under the influence of the Emperor's breath, this Heaven and Earth Great Array will inevitably withdraw the attack on its own!

The only question now is whether it is worth it because of the limited number of times that Diyuan has been used?

"It's just a one-time use, and it won't affect my Emperor. He's my former husband, and I can't sit idly by. Gu Wanqing muttered to herself.

The moment the words fell, she gritted her teeth and ran in the direction where the breath came from.

But she had just taken off into the air, and she actually noticed it......

In that breath, the cultivation contained in it is still rising!

In just an instant, it was as if it had broken through the shackles of heaven and earth, and transformed into a kind of coercion that was enough to make all beings worship!

The moment the coercion appeared, the Great Array of Heaven and Earth disappeared in an instant, and the surroundings quickly returned to normal.

Affected by the coercion, Gu Wanqing fell from the air on her own and sat down on the ground.

Her beautiful eyes widened, her expression glazed over, and she couldn't get up for a long time.

She didn't know that this was Shengwei, but she knew!

This kind of coercion, even if she is the current Holy Ancestor, she has never experienced it!

"Saint, saint?" After coming back to her senses, Gu Wanqing muttered.

After speaking, she thought again in shock.

What do you mean?

What does it mean that Xu Ze's true cultivation is a saint?

That's impossible!

That's a saint! Only one person has existed for thousands of years!

"Perhaps, maybe the breath doesn't come from Xu Ze? It was the remnant of the Holy Ancestor's Holy Breath, which suddenly appeared somewhere in the secret realm? Gu Wanqing said in her heart.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt so.

Although the Holy Ancestor has fallen, the power of the Saint, even after thousands of years, is difficult to dissipate.

Moreover, this Asking Secret Realm is originally asking the Holy Ancestor to refine, and it is reasonable that there is a residual breath!

Gu Wanqing instantly felt a lot more reasonable.

Xu Ze is a cultivator of the Four Realms of Emperor Zheng, although she feels incredible, she can still accept it.

But if Xu Ze is a saint?

Then she doesn't believe it anyway!

After all, if Xu Ze is a saint, why should he marry her, a wife who was not only unable to cultivate, but also extremely ugly?

After shaking her head, Gu Wanqing got up from the ground.

Looking around, she planned to find a safe and pure place to take the Dao Fruit of Life and Death.

Soon, her pupils shrank!

The reason for this is not that she has found a suitable destination, but that she sees a red-maned lion, stepping on fire on all fours, coming from a distance!

With just a glance, Gu Wanqing recognized this beast.

It was the contract demon beast of the Dao Holy Ancestor, the purple-eyed three-tailed lion! Its status as a Holy Sect is even higher than that of today's Holy Ancestor!

Gu Wanqing remembered that Shi Yi had told herself.

This purple-eyed three-tailed lion has been staying in the Secret Realm Heavenly Abyss since the fall of the Holy Ancestor, guarding the inheritance of the Holy Ancestor. In the past thousand years, he has never taken a step out of the abyss.

But why did you run to the secret outside the perimeter today?

I really couldn't figure it out, so Gu Wanqing gave up.

And just when she was thinking about whether she, as the Holy Sect Holy Maiden, saw the Holy Ancestor's contract demon beast at this time, should she take the initiative to greet and salute.

"Saint, I'm coming!" The purple-eyed three-tailed lion roared as he ran.

“……”

Hearing this, Gu Wanqing was stunned again.

How do you hear this mean that the aura just now is not a remnant of the Holy Ancestor of the Holy Sect, but that there is really a saint appearing?
