Chapter 1154: Chapter 636 Double Happiness Comes Knocking Chapter 1154: Chapter 636 Double Happiness Comes Knocking Chen Mobai and the others couldn’t help but reveal looks of joy when they witnessed this scene.

The blossoming of the Spirit Flower signified that the Soul Nourishing Wood had successfully leveled up.

However, it still required an immense amount of Spiritual Energy to stabilize its Realm and prevent the newly bloomed Spirit Flower from withering.

Fu Zongjue, upon receiving a cue from Chen Mobai, immediately deployed the Array of Ten Thousand Woods, which corralled the light Spiritual Energy accumulated at Giant Tree Ridge and the Spiritual Energy escaping from the Spirit Vein that day, transforming it into a Spiritual Energy rainbow that fell precisely into the void where the Soul Nourishing Wood resided.

In an instant, the richness of the surrounding Spiritual Energy condensed into patches of mist that shrouded the entire shady slope of the mountain.

The Soul Nourishing Wood instinctively began to draw in this vast Spiritual Energy, and the pale yellow blossom gradually opened more, with another petal unfurling.

Seeing this, Chen Mobai and the rest were able to relax.

The next step was the Heavenly Tribulation!

Boom!

No sooner had they thought of this than the sky above was already covered with dark clouds, lightning crisscrossing, with strands of splendid golden light flickering within the clouds.

Lightning bolts carrying the scorching heat of the sun intertwined and darted through the air, eventually congealing amidst thunderous echoes into even more robust and violent thunderbolts.

Accompanied by an incredibly dazzling brightness, a pillar-like golden thunderbolt scorched the air and struck heavily towards the Soul Nourishing Wood that had just produced a pale yellow Spirit Flower.

A profound black light burst forth from the pitch-black trunk of the tree, easily blocking the golden thunderbolt.

But this was only the beginning. With a series of crackling sounds, more golden thunderbolts intertwined and flashed, resembling a sea of thunder in the sky, which then, like a funnel, poured down concentrated bolts of golden lightning from its center.

The deep black light protecting the Soul Nourishing Wood began to thin under the relentless bombardment of the thunderbolts.

Watching this unfold, Chen Mobai knew that it might be difficult for the Soul Nourishing Wood to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation on its own and that it was time to proceed to the second step.

“Xuan’er, I leave it to you here!” he said.

Having uttered these words, he promptly headed with Zhuo Ming towards the peak, where an Immortal Peach Tree stood, its petals scattering in profusion due to the Heavenly Tribulation.

Upon landing, Zhuo Ming first reached out to soothe the seemingly alarmed Immortal Peach Tree.

With the Divine Skills of All Things Spiritual Communication, the Immortal Peach Tree calmed down.

The earth cracked open, and Tai Sui emerged from within, wriggling to the feet of Chen Mobai.

“Now I need your help. I’ll find a way to upgrade you to Rank-4 later,” Chen Mobai said, consoling Tai Sui, who, in his whining, sensed Zhuo Ming’s gaze and promptly withdrew back into the earth.

“Master, I’ve already communicated with the Immortal Peach Tree, and it knows this is the best chance for leveling up. It hopes we can start as soon as possible.” Zhuo Ming said.

The most challenging part of leveling up a Spirit Plant was surviving the Heavenly Tribulation.

Across the Eastern Wilderness, the Divine Wood Sect had found remnants of high-grade Spiritual Plants in many Spirit Veins, all of which had unintentionally broken through their limits, inciting a Heavenly Tribulation that ultimately led to their destruction under the overwhelming might of heaven and earth.

Hearing Zhuo Ming’s words, Chen Mobai didn’t hesitate and once again used the Art of Encouraging Growth. A greenish-yellow Spiritual Light spread out, forming a fan shape that covered the entire Immortal Peach Tree.

Then, a situation similar to the leveling up of the Soul Nourishing Wood occurred.

As if time had accelerated, the tree bark became rougher and more rugged, and the already lush canopy expanded outward, even concealing the wooden house where Chen Mobai lived.

Some bright red peaches still hung on the branches, and they all naturally ripened and fell off at this time.

Zhuo Ming, prepared for this, began collecting them in a bamboo basket.

Subsequently, cracks ripped through the mountaintop where the tree roots were, a sign that the trunk was expanding and pushing the ground apart.

Surges of rich Spiritual Energy, under Zhuo Ming’s control, flowed into the ground where the Immortal Peach Tree’s roots had taken hold.

Tai Sui also howled in response, once more spreading out its form to cover the thickest roots of the Immortal Peach Tree, aiding in refining the continuous rush of Spiritual Energy.

Since the Soul Nourishing Wood’s advancement had only required the stored light Spiritual Energy from the Array of Ten Thousand Woods, all the Spirit Vein Qi from Xiao Nanshan could be provided to the Immortal Peach Tree.

Chen Mobai had originally prepared a hundred Top-grade Spirit Stones, thinking to crush them into Tai Sui if the Spirit Vein Qi wasn’t sufficient and then allow it to supply the Immortal Peach Tree.

Now, it seemed that none of these backup measures were necessary.

The Spiritual Power from Yin Qingmei’s Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture also went unused, as the Art of Encouraging Growth seemed to require very little Spiritual Power, apparently only serving as a catalyst. Nevertheless, the substantial accumulation of the two Spiritual Plants themselves might have contributed to this.

Shortly after, all the leaves of the Immortal Peach Tree also fell off.

Zhuo Ming didn’t waste them, quickly collecting them again with her bamboo basket, as they too were a medicinal herb, capable of detoxifying and soothing itching, and desired by both the Spirit Plant Department and the Alchemy Department of the Sect.

With all burdens shed and nothing but branches left, the Immortal Peach Tree, after suddenly absorbing a significant amount of juice from Tai Sui, finally broke through the barrier that had plagued it for hundreds of years.

Boom!

No sooner had the Immortal Peach Tree advanced than the thunderous sea above Xiao Nanshan roared once again.

A silver bolt of lightning, resembling a slender serpent, formed amidst the golden thunderous sea.
