"Tree of life? Is this tree the same as a regular tree? Why is it called the Tree of Life?" asked Lin Feng.
"The tree is almost the same as an ordinary tree, only the trunk and leaves of the tree are silver, even the trunk of the tree almost resembles a crystal, then the tree also emitted an extremely abundant life energy, if a cultivator was cultivating by absorbing the energy from the tree, it could make one ascend to the next realm quickly" Huise replied.
"That means that if I cultivate under that tree, it means that I will directly ascend to the Heaven Spiritual realm, is that what you mean?" asked Lin Feng.
"That's right sir, but it's not that easy, because there will be a test that you will face and if you fail, then you can die" Huise replied.
"Just relax, I'm not a human being who can just die" said Lin Feng.
After nearly half an hour of walking through the extremely dark ravine passageway, Lin Feng discovered a dead end, which before him was currently no path at all, except for a very high cliff and very impossible to climb.
Lin Feng had hesitated when he saw the stone cliff, even Lin Feng had thought that they had gone the wrong way, but Huise convinced Lin Feng and asked Lin Feng to continue his steps, instead, Huise also requested that Lin Feng confirm his heart and not feel any hesitation.
"Why do I need to strengthen my heart?" asked Lin Feng.
"Master, the test I said will start from now on, so after this your determination will be thoroughly tested, if master feels doubt then master will end up in a place that master would never have imagined at all, one more thing, after master steps forward, master will not be able to contact me again" answer Huise.
"If this is indeed the way to become strong, no matter how difficult the test will be I will definitely pass" said Lin Feng.
"Master, remember my words, lest you feel any doubt, no matter what happens, never hesitate!" said Huise.
"Alright, then let's start" said Lin Feng.
Lin Feng then closed his eyes then let out a long sigh to win his heart and mind, after completely calming down, Lin Feng immediately started his first step, the moment Lin Feng's first step touched the ground, the atmosphere had suddenly changed, Lin Feng who was previously at the bottom of the abyss was now instead at the gate of the Golden Phoenix sect.
Confusion began to haunt Lin Feng's mind, he tried to contact Huise to ask, but his efforts were in vain, because Huise seemed to disappear from within him, even Huise's aura alone couldn't be felt by Lin Feng, but Lin Feng immediately recalled Huise's previous warning not to feel any hesitation and continued to continue his steps.
Initially nothing strange at all, the atmosphere of the Golden Phoenix sect also seemed lively and calm as usual, but after a few steps of entering the sect, a strange incident just suddenly happened, after which, from the direction of the gate of the sect just suddenly appeared the imperial army and directly attacked whatever was before them.
"According to the emperor's orders, we must kill all of them, do not let a single person escape" the imperial chief general said.
The soldiers massacred all of the sect disciples, none of them were allowed to escape alive. Lin Feng's body trembled violently due to restraining his anger, he really did not expect that Feng Jing Quo would do something like this to the Golden Phoenix sect.
"Feng Jing Quo, why are you doing all this, why is it my kindness that you even reply in this way!" said Lin Feng angrily.
In a state of anger, Lin Feng ran quickly towards the elder Liu Changhai's residence, Lin Feng really wished for elder Liu Changhai to be fine, however, after getting there, Lin Feng really wished for elder Liu Changhai to be fine, however, after getting there, Lin Feng had instead found a truly terrifying scene.
The residence of elder Liu Changhai had been destroyed, then in the courtyard of the palace lay the corpse of Lin Tian and the three sons of the emperor, the three of them died in a very sad state, even Lin Feng was unable to see the corpses of the four of them, without noticing Lin Feng's tears dripping and wetting his cheeks and face coverings.
Not too long later, from the direction of elder Liu Changhai's ruined residence, came several soldiers along with elder Liu Changhai, the situation of elder Liu Changhai himself was already fraught with wounds, even to walk alone elder Liu Changhai was already unable and had to be dragged by some of these soldiers.
"Stop! What are you going to do to my teacher!" said Lin Feng shouting loudly.
As loud as Lin Feng shouted, his voice had never been heard by those soldiers, they kept attacking elder Liu Changhai all the way to the courtyard, then afterwards, after that, they all placed the head of elder Liu Changhai on a bench made of stone, one of the soldiers then drew his sword and raised his sword upwards.
Lin Feng of course knew what the soldier was going to do, which was to decapitate elder Liu Changhai, Lin Feng's anger completely peaked, his body trembling violently again, an enormous killing aura instantly seeped out from his body, with an extremely fast movement, Lin Feng instantly shot towards elder Liu Changhai.
However, Lin Feng's movements were still inferior in speed compared to those soldiers' movements, when Lin Feng had arrived before elder Liu Changhai, the sword of the soldier had also beheaded elder Liu Changhai, even his blood had hit Lin Feng's face and his head was lying right before Lin Feng,
Lin Feng could only be speechless seeing that his teacher's head had been severed, without Lin Feng noticing, his tears were back dripping and wetting his cheeks and face coverings, even so, without Lin Feng noticing, an enormous fury was also burning inside Lin Feng's body and was ready to burn whatever was nearby.
"All of you, I will definitely kill you!" said Lin Feng angrily.
After which, Lin Feng directly pulled the spirit wood sword that was on his back, Lin Feng then slashed the sword towards the soldier who had killed elder Liu Changhai, however, Lin Feng's hand movements suddenly came to a halt as he recalled the words of warning from Huise.
"Truely, all of this is just a test, I must not feel the slightest hesitation" said Lin Feng while wiping away his tears.
After which, Lin Feng immediately continued his footsteps, along with Lin Feng's departure, the Golden Phoenix sect also slowly started to disappear swallowed up by the darkness.
