Chapter 843: Chapter 438: Disciples Turning on Each Other

Divine Tree Continent, Qing Domain, this was the core region inhabited by the Star-Moon Human Tribe during the Plant Era, where the Tree King Ruins were located.

However, in the timeline Lu Ran entered this time, the Tree King Ruins had already been challenged and conquered by the reincarnation of the Tree King, Peanut.

After arriving in Qing Domain, Lu Ran donned his black robe and hood, walking down the street with an aura so commanding that passersby avoided his gaze and gave him space.

Some pedestrians even covered their children’s eyes to prevent them from looking, as the man in the black robe didn’t seem like a good person. It was best not to provoke him.

"Qing Domain, Tree King City. A familiar place. Is Infinite City hinting at something?"

Lu Ran muttered to himself as he walked through the streets.

His task this time was to take on an apprentice and train them, but Lu Ran certainly couldn’t afford to waste too much time on the breakthrough task.

He could even say that failing the task didn’t matter; he could challenge it indefinitely, so it was still more cost-effective to find a way to help Liu Hua make a breakthrough by finding the Divine Tree.

"Finding the Divine Tree is troublesome, as I don’t know where the tree is."

"Generally speaking, powerful spirits have their own Divine Secret Realms, and under normal circumstances, it’s impossible to find an entrance..."

"Then, let’s take a step back and look for the Tree’s daughter, the Flower God, and ask her to lead the way."

"I don’t know where the Flower God is either, so let’s take another step back and look for the Flower God’s envoy, Peanut."

"As long as I find Peanut, I’ll be able to find the Flower God."

As an envoy of the Flower God, Peanut didn’t actually know where the Divine Tree’s headquarters were. However, Peanut had an item given to her by the Flower God that could be used to contact the Flower God, who was also traveling the Continent.

What Lu Ran needed was this item.

"Then, I can also conveniently take ’Legendary Plantmaster Peanut’ as an apprentice and easily complete the breakthrough task.

"However, taking Peanut as an apprentice will only ensure task completion and not task grading; I must ensure the apprentice shows growth in order to achieve a high score..."

Actually, that was quite simple. Despite Peanut being 3 levels above Lu Ran, he could still teach her quite a few things.

After all, at this point in the timeline, Peanut had just recently advanced to legend status, whereas No. 18’s summoned Heroic Spirit Peanut had the battle experience of Peanut at the peak of her legendary stage. It was just the level that was lower, the experience was still there.

Simply letting Peanut teach herself would do. She could skip a decade’s worth of detours in an instant.

Lu Ran easily handled the breakthrough task perfunctorily.

The key now was to find the Legendary Plantmaster Peanut. According to the description given by Heroic Spirit Peanut, before the Ten Thousand Year Pact began, she was traveling and training all over the Continent, so finding her was not going to be easy.

But the coincidence lay in the fact that Lu Ran possessed a Relic Branch, which could be used as a medium to let Dark Crow predict the location of Peanut somewhere on the Continent through precognition.

Although Dark Crow’s current power might not be enough to predict the whereabouts of a Legendary Time Attribute powerhouse, all Lu Ran needed was to make Peanut aware that someone was looking for her.

No sooner said than done.

Lu Ran, dressed in his black robe, left the city and went to a wilderness area. He summoned Dark Crow and, holding out the Relic Branch, signaled to it.

"Caw!!!" Dark Crow grabbed the Relic Branch and began to predict.

"I will find the reincarnation of the Tree King, Peanut," it proclaimed with the power of Word Spirit, amplifying its precognitive skills.

In the next instant.

Dark Crow felt the cosmos spinning before its eyes, as if entering some kind of domain, surrounded by pitch darkness.

This dark space was like the big screen in a movie theater, slowly transitioning from darkness to light.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Accompanied by the sound of a breeze through the leaves, Dark Crow heard a voice say, "Who is it?" and then the power of its precognition was disrupted, causing a drop of blood to leak from the corner of its eye.

"King, it’s no good, I’ve been detected and can see nothing," Dark Crow complained, covering its eyes.

"As expected."

"Next, we’ll wait for them to come to us," Lu Ran said with a smile, withdrawing the Space-Time Shield effect.

At the same time.

In a forest, Peanut, who was using a pseudonym and investigating some ruins, looked puzzled.

She eyed the flows around her, tainted with a precognitive disturbance akin to the curse power of the Evil God Clan, and wondered, "The Overseas Evil God Clan?"

"Wasn’t the Evil God Clan sealed away long ago?"

Following the precognitive disturbances that sought out her own location, Peanut summoned her Pet Beast: Moon God Tree.

The next moment, as if falling into the World of the Moon, she saw an image atop a phantom of a bright moon.

It was a young man in a black robe with a warm face "looking" at her.

Beyond that, a crow stood on the young man’s shoulder, leading Peanut to believe the creature that had just tried to predict her location was probably that crow.

"Peanut, hello. I’m waiting for you outside Tree King City, at Sky Blue Mountain. I hope you can come in person,"

Click.

As Lu Ran finished speaking, the moon phase shattered as if severed by space-time, leaving Peanut standing there, frozen.

Then, her expression changed abruptly.

What kind of joke was this? The name Peanut... It was known only to the Flower God and herself. Who was this man? Why did he know her name?

"You wait!"

"Qing Domain, Tree King City, Sky Blue Mountain."

Muttering to herself, Peanut immediately set out to discover the truth.

It couldn’t possibly be a suitor introduced by the Flower God, could it?

To ensure the emergence of more high-quality Plantmasters during her travels, the Flower God mentioned more than once that she allowed Peanut to find a partner and bear offspring.

But Peanut had absolutely no interest in this...

For a Legendary Plantmaster, traversing the Continent wouldn’t take long at all. Moreover, since time and space are interconnected, Peanut, who was versed in the ways of time, would invariably also be a master of the Power of Space.
