Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1451: Panlong Immortal Steps

"Alright, master."

The Little Rabbit retracted its paw and turned around with a cheeky smile at Ye Yun.

"Hmm, the formation is undamaged, yet it opened a channel out of nowhere. It seems your expertise in formations is indeed remarkable!"

Ye Yun nodded in admiration.

"Not too bad, master, after all, when I was above, I did study some formations..."

The Little Rabbit said with a thick-skinned grin.

In the distant void, the Formless Tree gazed at the channel with a flicker of intense desire in its heart.

"This Little Rabbit has some skills; perhaps it can be made into a Divine Pet in the future..."

The Formless Tree contemplated inwardly.

Swoosh!

The shadow of the Formless Tree in the void shook, emitting a deep call: "My kind, come here..."

"Why don’t you come out!"

Dragon Tree was slightly taken aback and instinctively countered.

The channel is already open now.

This Formless Tree is no longer bound by the formation, so why doesn’t it come out, but wants me to go over?

"Something’s odd..." Ye Yun’s eyes flickered as he smiled faintly.

Buzz!

Under the massive shadow of the tree in the void, a strong ripple suddenly emerged, revealing a giant water pool that appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The water inside the pool was bright red like blood.

Splish splash... The blood-like pool water surged incessantly, seemingly carrying some strange rhythm and pattern.

Above this Blood Pool, a colossal tree rooted just above it; the blood energy was abundant, constantly flowing, absorbed by the dense roots.

"Ten Thousand Transformation Pond!"

Upon seeing the astonishing Blood Pool, Dragon Tree’s expression changed and blurted out.

Even if his memory was fragmented, he had a vivid recollection of this Ten Thousand Transformation Pond.

"My kind, you indeed recognize this Ten Thousand Transformation Pond!"

The Formless Tree above the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond sighed.

Dragon Tree furrowed his brows, staring at the shimmering bloody light of the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond, as if recalling certain past events.

Ye Yun’s eyes flickered.

According to the information he had, back in the day, a portion of Dragon Tree’s root was cut and placed in the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond by the Xuantian Sect, gaining a brand new evolution.

It seems the Formless Tree before them evolved within the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond.

"Dragon Tree, do you think this Formless Tree has completed its evolution?"

Ye Yun asked secretly.

"Buddha Lord, this Formless Tree and I have some differences; it seems it hasn’t completely evolved successfully..."

Dragon Tree replied softly.

"Hmm..."

Ye Yun nodded, with a hint of realization on his face.

The Unborn Secret Realm has opened for the last time.

Perhaps after this opening, this Formless Tree will complete its final evolution.

Inside this Unborn Secret Realm, someone had long laid down a sky-reaching formation to collect all the blood energy, injecting it into the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond for the Formless Tree to absorb.

"Come in quickly..."

The Formless Tree urged again.

Dragon Tree glanced at Ye Yun, who nodded gently.

Dragon Tree floated up and flew into the channel.

Ye Yun and the Little Rabbit followed suit.

Dragon Tree floated near the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond and looked up at the colossal Formless Tree.

Ye Yun stood behind him.

"My kind, you also noticed I’m not complete yet. How about lending me a hand?"

The Formless Tree slowly spoke.

"You need a part of the tree body?"

Dragon Tree asked calmly.

"Yes, just give me a small part of the tree body, and I will be able to complete my evolution.

From then on, I’ll be a complete Formless Tree just like you!"

The Formless Tree’s massive canopy revealed a face, the face of a young man, who spoke with great expectation.

Dragon Tree remained silent.

The condition isn’t too excessive; if the Dragon Tree sacrifices a part of his tree body, he can do that.

After all, cutting off a section of the tree body doesn’t affect him much, and Dragon Tree can continue growing, replenishing it.

Gazing at the youthful face, Ye Yun spoke calmly, "Having Dragon Tree agree is not difficult, but I have a question I’d like to ask you!"

"Fellow Daoist, please ask."

The Formless Tree replied.

"Who trapped you in this Unborn Secret Realm?"

Ye Yun asked.

The youthful face at the canopy was slightly stunned at the sharp question, then gritted his teeth as if making a decision, and answered solemnly, "It is the Divine Dragon Path!"

"Divine Dragon Path?"

Ye Yun was slightly taken aback, his eyes immediately gleaming with an unusual light.

Unexpected...

The Divine Dragon Path orchestrated the Unborn Secret Realm.

Ye Yun’s gaze turned to the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond, speaking lightly, "Shouldn’t this Ten Thousand Transformation Pond be within the Divine Land?"

"Fellow Daoist, you know this too, it seems you’re no ordinary person..."

The Formless Tree frowned slightly, looking at Ye Yun with significant intent before explaining without hesitation, "This Ten Thousand Transformation Pond comes from the Divine Land’s Xuantian Sect. Back in the day, a Root of No Birth was put into it, and I evolved from that Root of No Birth..."

"I see."

Ye Yun nodded silently, his gaze becoming increasingly bright.

Now, some truths are becoming more apparent.

"At that time, I had evolved, growing a complete Root of No Birth. However, if I want to grow a tree body, relying solely on the blood of the Spirit of the Divine Soil is not enough; only the blood of Ancient Realm cultivators can accomplish this.

After all, the Formless Tree itself was born in the Ancient Realm, I think you should understand the connections within.

In the Unborn Secret Realm, through this formation collecting vital energy and blood, and then evolving continuously in the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond, I eventually grew a tree body successfully!"

The Formless Tree continued.

Listening to these words, Ye Yun blinked, seemingly lost in thought.

Dragon Tree suddenly interjected, "It’s said this is the last opening of the Unborn Secret Realm. Will you be able to evolve completely after collecting the vital energy and blood from this time?"

"Sort of, but even after absorbing enough vital energy and blood, I still need a long time to evolve successfully. I can’t wait any longer, so I need you to lend me a hand!"

The Formless Tree spoke quickly and earnestly.

Clearly, its desire to become whole is strong.

"Why are you so anxious?"

Ye Yun asked with a faint smile.

"Because once complete, the people from the Divine Dragon Path will descend here and take me to the Panlong Immortal Steps..."

The Formless Tree spoke excitedly.

Panlong Immortal Steps?

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun was somewhat stunned.

What kind of place is this?

Dragons, immortals, steps—the Panlong Immortal Steps, where do they lead?

"The Panlong Immortal Steps..."

Dragon Tree’s eyes lit up, as if he remembered something but wasn’t clear about it, hesitant to speak.

The Formless Tree looked at Dragon Tree with a leisurely gaze and suddenly sighed, "Perhaps you should remember something; originally, our Formless Trees grew at the entrance to the Panlong Immortal Steps. Due to our presence, the Panlong Immortal Steps can be stabilized, and thus, the true path to the Immortal Realm can be opened..."

"Stabilize the Panlong Immortal Steps, the pathway to the Immortal Realm..."

Dragon Tree muttered to himself, momentarily lost.

Clearly, the words triggered some familiarity or vivid feelings in his fragmented memories.

"Based on what you say, is the Panlong Immortal Steps a pathway to immortality?"

Ye Yun asked with a smile.

"Indeed, but it’s a pathway to immortality exclusive to the Divine Dragon Path!"

The Formless Tree responded.

Ye Yun shook his head with a laugh, "Heh, so the Divine Dragon Path, ultimately, aims to enter the Immortal Realm..."

"Naturally, who doesn’t want to enter the Immortal Realm?

To be honest, this Panlong Immortal Steps is extremely mysterious, both illusionary and real, hidden deep in the void. Without the suppression of the Formless Tree, it wouldn’t manifest at all! So, my role is very important!"

The youthful face on the canopy of the Formless Tree spoke with pride.

Snip!

A light sound.

Upon hearing this, Dragon Tree suddenly chopped off an arm, tossing it towards the Formless Tree.

The arm transformed into the tree body shape mid-air.

The cut-off arm of Dragon Tree regenerated into a new arm.

"Thank you for fulfilling!"

The Formless Tree was greatly pleased, its massive tree body shaking as it generated a huge suction force, absorbing the segment of the tree body.
