Lin Yuan had never underestimated the ancestral demon tree, as it was the current mother body of his own demonic tree.

The ancestral demon tree possessed an unimaginable control over any demonic tree grown from demonic seeds, even across worlds. It could roughly perceive them and, with a price, exert even more influence.

Because of this, when Lin Yuan sensed the ancestral demon tree reaching out to him, he didn't react immediately. Instead, he portrayed himself as a struggling demonic tree that had managed to survive in the depths of the Azure World.

Of course, Lin Yuan prepared for the worst-case scenario.

He anticipated that if the ancestral demon tree sensed anything unusual about him – growing to the peak of the Sixth Rank in just a few decades – it would realize that something was amiss. However, this didn't seem to be the case, as evidenced by the ancestral demon tree's first question: "You're still alive?"

This was to be expected.

If the ancestral demon tree truly had the ability to completely understand its offspring across worlds, it could have descended its consciousness instead of watching hundreds of thousands of demonic tree seeds perish in the Azure World.

Since Lin Yuan decided to portray himself as a loyal demonic tree, he didn't make any unreasonable demands. He knew that the ancestral demon tree scattered hundreds of thousands of demonic tree seeds into the Azure World to disrupt it, potentially serving as a beacon for the true ancestral demon tree residing outside the world.

However, under the suppression of the world, most of these seeds had perished. If Lin Yuan's consciousness hadn't descended, his current demonic tree would have perished long ago.

Therefore, in the present Azure World, Lin Yuan had become the only hope for the ancestral demon tree. If Lin Yuan were to die, the ancestral demon tree would have to descend into the Azure World through direct confrontation.

Based on the information Lin Yuan had gathered over the years, the ancestral demon tree hadn't gained any advantage outside the Azure World when faced with the united forces of the Azure Alliance. Against a world supported by such a force, the ancestral demon tree had no advantage and could not afford to continue the stalemate indefinitely.

"The situation is dire," the ancestral demon tree didn't doubt Lin Yuan's words. If hundreds of thousands of demonic seeds were nearly extinct, "dire" was an understatement; the situation would be truly desperate.

In fact, the ancestral demon tree had also underestimated the suppression of the Azure World.

"How can I help you?" the ancestral demon tree asked Lin Yuan through their connection. As long as Lin Yuan was alive, its original plan wouldn't be completely futile, offering another chance to descend into the Azure World.

Thinking about this, the ancestral demon tree couldn't help but feel a sense of joy. For three hundred years, it had been at a stalemate with the Azure Alliance and had even considered giving up on the Azure World. However, Lin Yuan's survival brought hope.

As long as Lin Yuan grew to a certain strength, the ancestral demon tree could open a spatial channel directly into the Azure World, with Lin Yuan's cooperation, allowing it to devour everything in the world.

"Ancestral tree, I want flesh and soul," Lin Yuan immediately replied. This was a normal demand for a demonic tree. The growth of a demonic tree didn't require realm support; as long as there was enough flesh and soul, it could quickly improve.

Essentially, a demonic tree originated from the ancestral demon tree, making it an extension of it.

"Flesh and soul," the ancestral demon tree fell silent. Its true body was outside the world, so where could it obtain flesh and soul for Lin Yuan? Even if it managed to acquire them, it couldn't deliver them.

"Very well. It seems I have no choice," the ancestral demon tree pondered for a moment before making a decision.

Buzzing, under the ancestral demon tree's manipulation, a large mass of demonic origin power split from itself.

Demonic origin power was the core power of the ancestral demon tree and could communicate with various means of the ancestral demon tree, including the mother body and the offspring. Leveraging the connection between the mother body and the offspring, the ancestral demon tree could send some of its demonic origin power to the offspring.

Lin Yuan realized that if the ancestral demon tree hadn't bestowed its demonic origin power upon him, it wouldn't have been worth it, given the current circumstances. If Lin Yuan didn't have significant value to the ancestral demon tree and its ability to devour the Azure World, the ancestral demon tree wouldn't have paid such a price.

This mass of demonic origin power could summon an army of evil god puppets numbering over a million.

In the depths of the Black Mist Mountains, Lin Yuan patiently awaited the ancestral demon tree's response.

"What if I've asked for too much?" Lin Yuan felt a bit puzzled by the ancestral demon tree's silence.

But the next moment, within the burning black flames at the root area, a dark force slowly emerged.

"What is this?"

Lin Yuan was startled.

The moment this dark force appeared, he felt his entire body tremble with a kind of longing.

This was the origin of the ancestral demon tree.

For him, as a subordinate demonic tree, it was the most eagerly absorbed power, far surpassing flesh and soul by countless times.

To consume flesh and soul, it needed to be converted through the demonic tree itself. However, the origin of the ancestral demon tree was the purest power, capable of greatly enhancing the strength of the subordinate demonic tree almost infinitely.

In theory, as long as this power was sufficient, the subordinate demonic tree could grow to the level of the ancestral demon tree.

As for the method of sealing, it requires Lin Yuan's extraordinary understanding. Based on his detailed situation and the state of the burning black flames, he must create it.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, another ten years had passed.

"Seal accomplished."

Lin Yuan's mind converged in front of the burning black flames in the root area.

Strands of power, like spider webs forming countless layers, slowly enveloped the burning black flames.

Then all the power hid in the depths of space.

After ten years of comprehension, Lin Yuan finally, with his extraordinary understanding, comprehended a method to completely seal the burning black flames.

This method consisted of sixty-three core spatial rules. As long as Lin Yuan had a thought, he could isolate space. No matter what changes occurred in the burning black flames, they could not affect Lin Yuan's true body.

"It's finally done."

Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. With the sealing technique completed, Lin Yuan could be said to have formally escaped the control of the ancestral demon tree.

Of course, the ancestral demon tree was unaware of this. In the eyes of such an extraterritorial evil god, its offspring were absolutely loyal and could not possibly betray it.

The ancestral demon tree probably never dreamed that there would be someone like Lin Yuan.

"Ten years of cultivation."

After performing the sealing technique, Lin Yuan's perception spread in all directions.

During these ten years, creating the sealing technique only took up a small part of Lin Yuan's time.

In addition, Lin Yuan had gained much more.

Firstly, his strength.

Lin Yuan had now entered the seventh rank.

According to Lin Yuan's previous estimate, breaking through to the seventh rank would require at least fifty to a hundred years. But the ancestral demon tree was too generous, constantly feeding him "origin power," allowing Lin Yuan to cross this stage of cultivation progress in just ten years.

With a demonic tree at the seventh rank, its roots spread, covering almost the entire Black Mist Mountain Range. Millions of miles around were under Lin Yuan's control.

Apart from the area where the seven "Kings" resided in the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountains, Lin Yuan's control over the Black Mist Mountain Range was unprecedented.

Every demonic beast and creature, even the purple-eyed rabbits, were under Lin Yuan's watch.

It could be said that nothing that happened in the Black Mist Mountain Range could escape Lin Yuan's notice.

Now, Lin Yuan had a bit of the majesty of the ancestral demon tree, which could single-handedly contend with the Azure World from outside the world.

"Space."

Lin Yuan sensed around slightly.

Over the decades, Lin Yuan had made great progress in comprehending the core spatial model.

Space was everywhere, with extremely wide applicability. The sealing technique Lin Yuan comprehended was also based on many core spatial models.

Now Lin Yuan had comprehended two hundred and sixty-seven core spatial models, surpassing the understanding of space of ordinary eighth-rank evolvers.

It should be noted that ordinary eighth-rank evolvers who had just entered the eighth rank only comprehended a few, at most dozens, of core spatial models.

Lin Yuan's comprehension of over two hundred core spatial models was probably equivalent to several hundred or even thousands of years of arduous cultivation for ordinary eighth-rank evolvers.
