In other words, this Heavenly Fire is its natural opposition. It fears nothing in Heaven or Earth, impervious to sword or spear, fears not fire or water, and the mystical weapons of those practitioners cannot leave a single scratch on its body. The only thing it fears is this little flame that is unique and unmatched between heaven and earth.
Su Lijiang is a descendant of the Celestials. At first, the Tree thought that Su Tingyun could also cut the Divine Tree because her body used to be Su Lijiang’s wife. The two used to be married, and the Yang essence of his Yao Ri Physique nourished her body. It now realizes that the peerless Heavenly Fire is actually with her. Not only can she pinch off its branches, she can even hack it into firewood and burn it into charcoal...
Thinking of this, the Kunlun Divine Tree is terrified.
Although it has existed for countless years, it was only a seed in the beginning, and it’s been less than a year since it’s taken root and sprouted. Its consciousness is equivalent to that of a child. It has become arrogant and unruly after seeing so many cheaters and swindlers on the sea. Now that someone has beaten it, it sincerely expresses its fear, its wrapped branches making it look like a little sprout. If it could talk, it might have a shy face as it apologizes to Su Tingyun.
"Don't hit people indiscriminately." Su Tingyun lectures.
The clamped branches very carefully spread out, then shake around.
"I was wrong to cut off your branches before. You can tell me how you want me to make up for it, but you can't beat me when I'm cultivating. If I go into Qi Deviation, what would happen if I can't control this fire and burn this Divine Tree?"
The Kunlun Divine Tree has hanging roots draping down. For it, these are the same as human hair. To have two strands of its hair pulled out, and while Su Tingyun is also willing to admit her mistakes and try to make up for it, it is still not happy. But to deliberately interrupt people when they are at a critical point in their cultivation, such an act can cause serious damage to the meridians and cause Qi Deviation if she’s not careful. This way of taking revenge is overboard.
Hearing about getting set on fire, the Tree Heart trembles for a little while. She doesn’t know if it’s just her imagination, but Su Tingyun feels like this little tree looks a bit shorter now.
"You have to be good." Su Tingyun reaches out and touches the Kunlun Divine Tree. She does that subconsciously, not expecting that with that touch, she could actually feel the real thing.
Now that she could touch its real body, Su Tingyun also performs the Spring Wind and Rain skill, sprinkling a little spiritual energy on the little tree to nourish it. She checks if it’s healthy, and finds no problem with it. Then she says: "Your master used to be a gentle person. He used to put his heart into teaching his apprentices, but he is busy cultivating and has no time to take care of you. You yourself have to be good, don’t follow bad examples."
After saying that, she pats the little tree again, "Otherwise, no one will want to be your friend in the future."
Divine Tree Heart: "I am an ancient Divine Tree, I don't want to be friends with people."
"Hear that?" Su Tingyun gently straightens out the tangled branches, like combing hair, she lets them hang down naturally. She also tidies up the twisted leaves. It’s only after speaking that she gently asks that.
The Divine Tree Heart nods again and again, the branches droop down, and sweep the ground.
Only then does Su Tingyun sit down to cultivate, but as soon as she enters a meditative state, she feels the branches raining down all over her body. She’s a bit annoyed at first, but she soon discovers that the branches splayed on her body contain a lot of spiritual energy. The energy enters her as if using the branches as conduits, causing her to feel a rush of spiritual energy surging forth.
The little tree isn’t teasing her, it’s helping her cultivate.
With that in mind, Su Tingyun doesn’t hold back, directly operating the cultivation method to absorb the spiritual energy. At this time, she only feels that the spiritual energy is warm as it expands her meridians. Her body is like a water bottle, and that bottle is growing bigger at a speed visible to the naked eye, its capacity to contain water is also expanding.
