244 Blessing in Disguise Blessing in Disguise At this moment, as the final piece of the body was placed, the figure of light’s body squirmed as if they were rejecting each other. “It seems like I need to solve some genetic problems,” the figure of light said. Following that, many light threads quickly spread out, wrapping the figure of light’s body into a cocoon of light that floated in the air. At that moment, Yan Wuyue and Qi Ming brought Zhou Mingrui to a cave. !! Looking at Zhou Mingrui lying on the ground, Yan Wuyue looked worried and didn’t know what to do. After all, she had never seen Zhou Mingrui like this before. There was no sign of life in his body, but he had not been determined to be dead through the contract. Besides her, Qi Ming was also lying on the ground, knowing that it had to behave itself for fear that Yan Wuyue might vent her anger and kill it if it made any noise. “We can’t just sit here and wait for death. Let’s go to the red-haired ape monsters’ territory now!” Yan Wuyue suddenly stood up and said. “Now?” Qi Ming asked, puzzled. “Yes. I’m afraid that something might happen if we wait any longer. I don’t want to waste time anymore. Let’s go,” Yan Wuyue said in a dominant tone. Qi Ming had no choice but to get up and put Zhou Mingrui on its back. Then, it led the way for Yan Wuyue. They quickly arrived at the red-haired ape monsters’ territory. “Why are you guys here again?” the elder asked Yan Wuyue in confusion. After Yan Wuyue explained what had happened, the elder was more than confused. The two overlords of the forest had started a crazy battle, which was shocking. “I’ll take you to the sage first.” The elder immediately made a decision and brought them to the sage. After listening to all the information, the sage one fell into a few minutes of silence before saying in a deep voice, “Every overlord in the depths of the forest has their territory. Normally, they wouldn’t fight for no reason. According to your description, it was a life-and-death battle. “Something must have happened in the heart of the forest, but it’s not important now. Let me check your summoned spirit first.” The sage slowly squatted down and carefully observed Zhou Mingrui’s condition. Following that, it reached its hand. A faint grayish-white glow appeared in its palm and covered Zhou Mingrui’s head. After a long while, it stood up and said, “Your summoned spirit took a fatal blow from the horned lightning beast. Fortunately, he transformed into an energy body at the critical moment, so the damage was reduced to a certain extent.” “It’s all up to him now. If he can withstand it, he will undergo a qualitative change. Yan Wuyue was stunned and asked in confusion, “Sage, can you tell me what a qualitative change is?” The sage paused for a moment. “The horned lightning beast’s attack triggered the energy of lightning, which is the pure energy between heaven and earth. Your summoned spirit is a body of energy, so he should be able to turn this energy into his own.” “And if I’m not wrong, the lightning that attacked you should be outside the core area, right?” Yan Wuyue nodded. “That’s right. At that time, we had already withdrawn from the core area and to the edge, so that thunderbolt was indeed the aftermath. ” The sage nodded. “That’s right. If he can wake up, then the seal from before will probably be broken. When that happens, it will be a qualitative change.” “It’s just like what you humans say, ‘Every misfortune is a blessing in disguise.” After the sage said these words with a sigh, Yan Wuyue looked at Zhou Mingrui, who was lying on Qi Ming’s back. She suddenly turned emotional. “I hope it will work as you said. The point is that we need him to wake up soon,” Yan Wuyue said expectantly. The sage then squinted its eyes and said, “How about this? Come with your summoned spirit and make the shadow leopard wait here.” With that said, the sage took the lead. It slammed the wooden staff in its hand on the ground, and grayish-white energy gathered, enveloping Zhou Mingrui. Yan Wuyue was taken aback, but she knew that the sage would not harm her now, so she followed in a hurry. Walking behind the sage, she soon stepped into a narrow and winding path. Yan Wuyue could sense that there was a guard every ten meters. After a few moments, they arrived in front of a huge but slightly shabby stone door. “Is it…?” Yan Wuyue said with uncertainty. “Oh, I didn’t expect you to know about this place.” The sage was a little surprised this time. This was the core area of their clan, and humans couldn’t know about this place. That was why the sage was shocked. “I only heard a bit about it, but not everything. This is your clan’s holy place, the Tree of Life, right?” Yan Wuyue said. “How much do you know?” The sage raised its eyebrows and asked. “The Tree of Life is a holy place only sages can enter. I don’t know the details, but I heard that it’s the key to your legacy,” Yan Wuyue told the sage everything she knew. Yan Wuyue had only received the information after the red-haired ape joined the alliance in her previous life. “That’s true. You’re right,” the sage smiled. After saying that, it directly pointed the head of the wooden stick in its hand at a pit in the stone door. After the gray energy was injected, the whole stone door began to tremble slightly, as if it was inserting an unlocking key. Then, a layer of invisible membrane rippled slightly, and the membrane opened up to reveal a dark door. “Let’s go.” After the sage said and took Zhou Mingrui in, Yan Wuyue followed closely behind. As soon as they stepped through the door, the surrounding scenery immediately changed. They were in an alternate spatial secret realm. Yan Wuyue knew they were not in the original world but in another space. According to the changes in the surroundings, she could tell it was a special alternate spatial secret realm. When she looked up, she saw a towering tree that occupied her entire vision in front of Yan Wuyue. The trunk was at least 20 meters wide and hundreds of meters tall. It was impossible to see the top of the tree even if she raised her head. “The Tree of Life was discovered by our ancestors in ancient times, and it is the fate of every sage. It stores a vast amount of knowledge, some of which even involves the essence of the world.” “Of course, we’ve gone through generations after generations, only to realize that the knowledge we can understand is just a drop in the ocean, the tip of the iceberg.
