"Now, I am in the world of Battle Through the Heavens, helping the Bodhi Ancient Tree to dispel the negative emotions left behind by that unknown Dou Di!"
Xiao Ning muttered to himself, and a somewhat hoarse voice, even carrying an ancient aura, gently drifted out from under the Bodhi tree.
Then, a glint flashed in his eyes, and all his confusion vanished.
After regaining his senses, the sense of vicissitude that filled Xiao Ning's eyes gradually subsided until it disappeared completely.
That sense of vicissitude vanished completely, as if it had been utterly absorbed into the depths of Xiao Ning's soul, making it impossible for anyone to detect.
He focused his mind inward and was astonished to find that in the lower dantian, there was a golden pill-shaped object about the size of a marble, slowly rotating and releasing a dazzling light.
The cinnabar-like object is an irregular circle, exuding a faint aura of indestructibility and eternal immortality.
Although it was faint, it was undeniable.
"Unbeknownst to me, I have already advanced to the second stage of the second-tier longevity realm, the Golden Core realm?"
Xiao Ning muttered to himself.
After traveling the world for more than a year, Xiao Ning has honed his magical power to a state of pure and flawless perfection, and is only one step away from stepping into the next stage.
With the help of the ancient Bodhi tree, I successfully advanced without any obstacles.
At the same time, Xiao Ning vaguely sensed that his lifespan limit had reached a staggering 2,000 years.
This is five hundred years longer than the 1,500-year lifespan limit of ordinary Golden Core cultivators.
"Haha, this came so easily! Mutual benefit, win-win situation! Bodhi Tree, come on, join me!"
After figuring out the cause and effect of the matter, Xiao Ning laughed heartily, and then he reached out and beckoned to the ancient Bodhi tree.
In the strange space, the ancient Bodhi tree, which was entirely green and looked like it was cast from jade, was now filled with pure energy, and the pervasive black energy had completely disappeared.
Upon hearing Xiao Ning's call, its trunk swayed, then it rose from the ground and slowly shrank until it was only the size of a palm, falling into Xiao Ning's hand.
"Haha, following Brother Ning through the heavens, Brother Ning will never treat you unfairly!"
Xiao Ning placed the ancient Bodhi tree in his hand between his eyebrows and used his magic power as a guide to penetrate the tree trunk.
He had already refined the Bodhi tree, but now it seemed to melt away, slowly merging into his brow.
Finally, it settled down in the Niwan Palace of the upper dantian.
Within Xiao Ning's Niwan Palace, everything was shrouded in a hazy gray, with no distinction between up and down, left and right. Only his Yin Spirit resided in the very center, emitting a faint light.
Just after the ancient Bodhi tree entered, it landed on the right side of Xiao Ning's Yin spirit, grew rapidly in the wind, and eventually became a giant tree that could support the sky, with its emerald green Bodhi leaves rustling.
Its thick root system penetrated into an unknown place, drawing nutrients from that unknown place.
With the Bodhi tree taking root, Xiao Ning's Niwan Palace became brightly lit, radiating a luminous glow.
"Huh? Green? Doesn't that make it a green grassland?"
Xiao Ning frowned, slightly displeased.
"No, I don't have a girlfriend, so she can't cheat on me!"
A moment later, he had a sudden thought, and his brows relaxed.
After the Bodhi Tree recognized him as its master, Xiao Ning felt refreshed and invigorated. The tree was constantly radiating boundless energy, which kept him focused and prevented him from losing his way.
In other words, with the Bodhi Tree protecting him, Xiao Ning can completely ignore spells that attack the soul.
As the Bodhi Tree recognized him as its master, the strange space naturally dissipated, and Xiao Ning returned to that desolate ancient domain.
However, the only difference was that the towering tree, which was thousands of feet tall, had disappeared, leaving only a huge pit in its place.
"It's been over a year since I left, and I wonder how the Xiao family is doing, and what's Xiao Yanzi's situation now!"
After standing there for a while, Xiao Ning thought of Xiao Yan, a fellow transmigrator from Blue Star.
"However, I have left behind enough cultivation techniques, pills, and other resources, as well as Zhu Kun, a powerful expert at the peak of the Dou Sheng realm, to protect me. I think that should be enough to deal with the Soul Palace's attack!"
He thought about it and realized that there was nothing left for him to worry about in the Battle Through the Heavens world; everything that needed to be arranged had already been taken care of.
Of course, when I first came to this world, my naive idea of taking advantage of Xiao Yan's rise to emperor seems rather ridiculous now.
Not to mention that Xiao Ning was originally a human, although he occupied the identity of Xiao Ning, the grandson of the Xiao family's eldest elder, they were actually completely unrelated.
He has no blood relation to Xiao Yan whatsoever.
Even if Xiao Yan becomes an emperor, he won't get the benefits of becoming an emperor.
Moreover, with those decades of waiting time, you could have explored two more dungeon worlds and become an immortal long ago. Wouldn't that be better?
Furthermore, the biggest surprise in the Battle Through the Heavens world is that we've already obtained the Bodhi Tree; everything else is insignificant.
"Very well, it's time for me to leave!"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Ning finally made up her mind.
A thought flashed through his mind, and he silently said, "System!"
A semi-transparent virtual screen popped up in front of him, displaying his personal information.
