Chapter 402 Unable to discern her true cultivation level

As a member of the Spirit Race, Ye Qingshuang's perception of spiritual sources is stronger than that of ordinary people, but compared to Ling Yi, it is much weaker. For example, at this moment, Ye Qingshuang can only sense that there is a strong wood spirit energy here, but she cannot detect the movement of the spiritual source and can only ask Ling Yi.

"No." Ling Yi glanced around: "The wood elemental energy here is extremely dense, and the item is still here."

"It's still there, that's good." Ye Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Should we go look for it or wait?"

Ye Qingshuang asked this question because she was worried that the descendants of the gods would try to snatch it away.

Ling Yi knew Ye Qingshuang's concerns and said, "Let's take a look first."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief and, instead of rushing to search, chatted with Ling Yi: "Could it be that they also came here for the Earth Wood Spirit Source?"

Ling Yi shook her head: "It doesn't seem like it."

The Earth Spirit Source is very strong, but judging from the six divine descendants who sacrificed themselves in the Fallen Continent and Saint Wei who obtained the ability of returning to her ancestral bloodline, the divine descendants are not lacking in mutated spiritual roots.

Even if there's a shortage, so many people shouldn't have come.

This is more than the number of divine descendants who went to Leize. In her opinion, although the Earth Wood Spirit Source is strong, it should not be as attractive as the palace where Taiyuan once lived, unless there is something more attractive here than the palace where Taiyuan once lived.

If that's the case, then it makes perfect sense why there are more people coming here than going to Raize.

Just as Ling Yi was pondering, Ye Qingshuang's voice rang out: "With so many people coming, I also don't think it's likely."

"If it's for something else, I don't know what is so attractive to them?"

Ling Yi turned his head to look at Ye Qingshuang: "Curious?"

Ye Qingshuang nodded: "Curious."

“Simple,” Ling Yi said. “Just follow them if you want to know.”

"Will they let us go with them?" Ye Qingshuang asked, a little worried.

The divine descendants haven't made a move yet, probably because they think the girls are new and are heading elsewhere, so they haven't acted immediately. But if the girls continue to follow them, they'll probably have to make a move.

“The area where the Wood Spirit is powerful is very wide.” Ling Yi said, “Just go somewhere else, away from them.”

As for what they're looking for... we'll hear back when they find it.

Ye Qingshuang nodded: "Okay."

After discussing it, the two stopped and sped past the descendants of the gods, disappearing from their sight in the blink of an eye.

Seeing Ling Yi and Ye Qingshuang leave, an old man stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "Langyue Langxing, go and follow those two."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, a man and a woman stepped out of the group and respectfully said, "Yes." Then they followed.

After the two left, a middle-aged man looked at the old man and respectfully asked, "Elder Nangong, those two have already left, why did you specifically send someone to follow them?"

Elder Nangong's expression was solemn: "One of those two has demonic energy on her, so we had someone follow them just in case."

"Demon?"

The middle-aged man's expression turned serious: "Elder, since they are demons, why not capture them?"

"Why are we arresting them?" Before Elder Nangong could speak, another elder said, "Don't forget why we're here."

“Elder Chengyang, there’s no conflict,” a young disciple of the divine lineage said. “We’ve been looking for things since we came in, and haven’t had a chance to practice. We can use them to practice.”

"Use them as practice?" Elder Chengyang looked at the disciple who spoke and sneered, "That demon's strength seems low, but to be able to enter this place, even the lowest level must be at least at the Heavenly Spirit Realm. Yet the strength she displayed was weaker than her true strength. Why do you think that is?"

"This..." The disciple who was asked didn't know how to answer.

There is a minimum cultivation level requirement, but if the strength displayed is lower than the minimum requirement, it can only mean that the other party's cultivation level is very high, so high that they can only see the cultivation level she deliberately displays, but cannot see her true cultivation level.

The disciples of the Divine Descendants hadn't taken Ling Yi seriously before, but now... even Elder Chengyang couldn't discern that person's cultivation level, indicating that his cultivation was above that of the elders.

No wonder Elder Chengyang said that.

Seeing that the disciple being questioned remained silent, Elder Chengyang knew that he had understood and said coldly, "Use your brains before you speak and act. Don't think that just because you are descendants of gods, others will unconditionally give way to you."

Upon hearing Elder Chengyang's words, the disciple who had asked the question blushed slightly, a shame at being reprimanded in public.

The disciple lowered his head and said embarrassedly, "Elder, I know I was wrong."

Elder Cheng Yang looked at him, wanting to say something, but Elder Nangong spoke first: "Old Cheng, forget it, they're still young."

"How old are they? Still calling them children?" Elder Chengyang glared at Elder Nangong with displeasure. "You're just spoiling them. If you keep doing this, something bad will happen sooner or later." After saying that, Elder Chengyang ignored them and strode away.

"You old man..." Seeing Elder Chengyang's anger, Elder Nangong sighed helplessly, then looked at his disciples and said in a deep voice, "Elder Chengyang's words may not be pleasant to hear, but they are all reasonable. You must not disregard others, otherwise you will be begging for mercy when something happens."

The disciples nodded quickly upon hearing this: "Elder, we understand."

"Good to know." Elder Nangong looked at the middle-aged man: "You take them and continue the search. Old Cheng and I will stay on the other side."

The middle-aged man replied, "Yes."

Elder Nangong didn't say anything more and quickly chased after Elder Chengyang. After catching up, he said helplessly, "Why are you getting angry with a bunch of spoiled kids?"

With no one else around, Cheng Yang's attitude softened considerably. Looking at Nangong, he said, "We're not the only ones here; the Tian family and the Demon Clan are also here. If they act like this, they'll get themselves into trouble sooner or later."

"Aren't we still here?" Elder Nangong said. "With us watching over things, nothing serious will happen."

Cheng Yang shook his head, disagreeing: "What use are we?"

“Even the Lord of Evil died after entering…” Cheng Yang said, “They’re targeting the descendants of the gods. If you’re not careful in this situation, are you waiting to end up like the Lord of Evil and his group?”

When the topic of evil came up, Elder Nangong fell silent.

The Evil God Lord led his personal guards to the Thunder Marsh. Afterwards, another team went to find the Evil God Lord. Later, they lost contact with both teams and realized something was wrong. They quickly sent a message to the Cangxuan God Lord. After looking at the Soul Silk Diagram, the Cangxuan God Lord discovered that the soul silk of the disciples in the two teams had all scattered.

The dissipation of their soul threads means that they not only died, but also lost their very souls.

Cheng Yang said, "I wonder who they've offended?"

"The God Lord Cangxuan has gone to investigate, and we'll have the results soon," Nangong said. "Don't think about anything else, just focus on finding the thing."

"Hmm." Cheng Yang nodded, and was about to continue looking for something when the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently, as if something was about to burst out of the ground.

Elder Nangong and Elder Chengyang exchanged a glance and, without saying a word, rushed towards the area where the tremors were stronger.

The closer they got, the stronger the tremors became. When the two reached the place where the tremors were strongest and saw the scene before them, they were both stunned.

Ahead of them, a huge black tree was slowly emerging from the ground, and as the tree emerged, its branches also began to sprout.

The branches were bare and leafless, like black whips. As more and more tree trunks emerged, the fully grown branches began to move.
