The Senluo Mountain Range, with countless towering trees blocking the sky, is continually filled with the roars of demon beasts, and dense Spiritual Energy forms multicolored auspicious clouds above the mountains, appearing very magnificent.

However, most people are unaware that thousands of years ago, it was just an ordinary mountain range, with Spiritual Energy far less abundant than it is now.

Due to the Qin Kingdom unifying the Celestial Crossing Realm and channeling the Spiritual Energy from various states to the Imperial Capital, the Senluo Mountain Range, being close to the capital, reaped immense benefits.

When Spiritual Energy rushed towards the Imperial Capital from various states, the Senluo Mountain Range absorbed a significant amount, turning the once barren land into a demon beast sanctuary as rich in Spiritual Energy as the Imperial Capital!

The Spiritual Energy within is no less than an ordinary place in Ba Yang City, thus attracting a large number of terrifying demon beasts to gather in the Senluo Mountain Range, becoming a formidable force.

Demon beasts of the Cloud Sea Realm abound here, and there's even the odd extraordinary demon beast that, by chance, has cultivated the Nine Heavens Secret Technique!

"We're here, this is the Senluo Mountain Range!"

Chu Nan, over the past three months, has frequently undertaken various missions of the Ancestor Sect, often coming to the Senluo Mountain Range to hunt demon beasts or search for spirit plants.

It's been half a month since his last visit to the Senluo Mountain Range.

Chu Nan clearly feels that the air here has changed somewhat since before.

"Did you notice, I sense an extremely strong aura of wood attribute Spiritual Power, this dense Spiritual Energy aura must be emanating from nothing other than a Primordial Demon Beast!"

Joy displayed on Chu Nan's face, and upon detecting this dense wood attribute Spiritual Power again, he became even more convinced that the Primordial Demon Beast he longed for was here.

"This is the Senluo Mountain Range, let's remain cautious." Zhi Tianping looked around warily, frowning slightly.

Chu Nan nodded, while he deeply desired the Primordial Demon Beast, he hadn't let desire completely cloud his mind, and instead, was more alert than usual.

"Quick, this demon beast may have just arrived at the Senluo Mountain Range and hasn't had time to conceal its aura, we must hurry to find it—if we're late, it could spell trouble!" Chu Nan's eyes glinted, quickly following the wood attribute Spiritual Power aura into the Senluo Mountain Range.

With his Spiritual Sense fully released, not a thing within a hundred miles could escape Chu Nan's eye.

Zhi Tianping closely followed, silently protecting Chu Nan.

Having spent several months with Chu Nan, Zhi Tianping no longer saw him merely as an ally, but as a friend he could entrust his back to.

Witnessing Chu Nan's displays of extraordinary strength time and again, young Zhi Tianping firmly believed that if the Zhi family sought vengeance against the royal and strong races, it could only be through Chu Nan!

Only an absolute prodigy like Chu Nan could carve out a bright path on this land ruled by royal and strong races!

Chu Nan, with Zhi Tianping, searched the Senluo Mountain Range for an entire day until, at the break of dawn on the second day, the rising sun's rays made him suddenly exclaim with joy, "Indeed, indeed, there's a Primordial Demon Beast here, Zhi Tianping, look, that's what I desire!"

His transcendent, high-grade, terrifying Spiritual Sense made Chu Nan's perceptions incredibly sharp, even detecting their target before Zhi Tianping.

Under Chu Nan's guidance, Zhi Tianping also saw the noble bloodline entity and couldn't help but pale, "What a dense Ancestral Bloodline, its Ancestral Bloodline would indeed be powerful even in the Ancestor Sect!"

Chu Nan nodded subtly, his gaze assessing the enormous demon beast in the distance.

In the not-so-distant scenery, countless trees were snapped by robust vines, clearing an area of nearly a hundred miles around.

A towering ancient wood stood like a pillar of heaven at the center of the clearing, its vines lashing the surrounding trees wildly, as if it wouldn't permit any spirit plant to reside near it.

This ancient wood was entirely green, reaching a height of hundreds of meters, with each leaf spreading out to a width of one meter, nearly blocking half the sky when unfurled.

It occasionally released emerald-green sap, with fragrant life aura spreading to the surroundings.

The trunk of the ancient wood bore a gigantic, immature human face that displayed anger and hatred, manipulating countless snake-like vines to scour the surroundings, incessantly expanding its activity territory.

"What kind of Primordial Demon Beast is this, it's terrifying, so domineering!" Chu Nan couldn't help but marvel, immediately realizing that overcoming this demon beast wouldn't be easy.

The cultivation of this ancient wood truly was of the Cloud Sea Realm's ninth level, and it appeared exceedingly formidable.

Though its Ancestral Bloodline was less than that of the Bloodthirsty Python, its combat prowess definitely surpassed the Bloodthirsty Python during their time in the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.

Zhi Tianping's gaze didn't linger long on the ancient wood, he said slowly, "Let me take over, this demon beast's aura is too exuberant, and it's not concealing its presence, it has likely invited the prying eyes of some people."

"I'll slay it, then you can devour it, and we'll leave immediately without delay."

Chu Nan nodded, accepting Zhi Tianping's proposal without refusal, having brought him along for this reason—fighting the ancient wood alone was inefficient, with Zhi Tianping present, the efficiency of the kill could be greatly improved.

"Quickly, quickly, to avoid complications arising from delay!" Chu Nan reminded.

Zhi Tianping replied in affirmation, then transformed into a radiant arc, swiftly punching out before the ancient tree could react.

With the terrifying punch enhanced by third-level Martial Intent, it was like Celestial Thunder exploding.

Seeing Zhi Tianping's charge, the ancient wood hurriedly mobilized countless vines to strike at Zhi Tianping.

But Zhi Tianping didn't dodge or evade—he was a second-level martial artist, how could he fear a mere ninth-level Cloud Sea Realm demon beast?

Boom!

A merciless punch fell like a wrecking ball, reducing countless vines to fragments under Zhi Tianping's terrifying blow.

The human face on the ancient tree let out a anguished cry, its voice resembling a weeping child's, ringing in the ears and causing dizziness.

"It's truly a bit impressive as a Primordial Demon Beast!" Zhi Tianping also felt a trace of pain, yet it didn't bother him as he instead showed an expression of excitement.

He gathered strength once again, as if two heavens' worth of power collided and erupted, a shocking fist force smashed into the ancient wood's trunk with overwhelming momentum.

Crunch! Though the body of the ancient wood was sturdy, the disparity with Zhi Tianping was too great. This second punch finally toppled it, shattering its trunk instantly, unleashing torrents of emerald liquid.

As the liquid erupted, countless plants bloomed across the previously vacant terrain for several miles, their vitality abundantly apparent.

"As expected of the Ancestral Bloodline, it truly holds endless mysteries," Zhi Tianping couldn't help but marvel at the sight.

Seeing no anomalies following the defeat of the ancient wood, Zhi Tianping was relieved and called out to Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, quickly devour it, or the spiritual aspect of the Ancestral Bloodline will disappear delayed."

However, to Zhi Tianping's surprise, Chu Nan didn't rush over; rather, in a panicked shout, he exclaimed, "Zhi Tianping, run quickly!"

A flash of confusion crossed Zhi Tianping's mind, but soon he felt a chill on his back.

Suddenly, numerous beams of light rose from the ground, immediately forming a massive cage around Zhi Tianping.

Then, a cold chuckle echoed, "After so much effort, we failed to catch Chu Nan but caught you instead."

"But it doesn't matter, with you trapped, he won't escape either!"
