Legend of the Great Sage

but when he contemplated it carefully, they varied from one another in a thousand different ways.
They were like thousands of specks of stars gathering in his mind as a sea of stars.
He had never felt weary because of his lengthy life.
There were still many, many matters he had to think about and questions he could not answer.

When he played against the King of Southern Yue, he was talking with Li Qingshan at the same time.
Of course, he stuck to his principle as a tree and disclosed nothing.
Everything was up to Li Qingshan to discover for himself.

“Fellow, are you ready?”

Li Qingshan asked from a branch on a tree in the Asura Field.
He had already decided to move the Great Banyan Tree King to Savage mountain.
He had already moved all the night roamers out of the Asura Field.

“I’m ready.”

“Then please come out yourself.
I really can’t move you.”

Li Qingshan waved his hand, and a blood-red swirl appeared above the Great Banyan Tree King, expanding to several hundred times its size in the blink of an eye.

The ground rumbled, and the Great Banyan Tree King rose up slowly, flying towards the blood-red swirl with thousands of tonnes of soil.
He gradually vanished into the vortex.

A similar vortex appeared in the valley of Savage mountain.
The Great Banyan Tree King’s colossal figure gradually emerged, his verdant canopy like a green cloud, blotting out the sun and the sky.

All of the night roamers watched this unfold, experiencing emotions from the bottom of their hearts.

Yu Wufeng, the Gentleman of Heavenly Blubber, and the other cave masters struggled to hide their shock, as the Great Banyan Tree King was located in the centre of the Mist province, and it was rare for any of his cuttings to reach the south.
They had only heard about him before.
They had not seen him with their own eyes.

They could not help but sigh in amazement inside, So this is the Great Banyan Tree King!

Ghost Shadow was basically the one who understood the Great Banyan Tree King the most out of everyone present.
He felt the shaking become more and more violent.
Currently, he stared at Li Qingshan who stood on the branches.

When Ye Liusu first told him that Li Qingshan and the Great Banyan Tree King referred to each other as fellows, he had been filled with doubt.
Only when he witnessed them talk one day did he confirm this reality.
As a result, he stopped thinking about resisting.
Like Yu Wufeng, he began behaving himself.
He cultivated in peace, waiting for the day when Li Qingshan showed mercy.

“A little more to the east.
Yep, yep, a little closer to the main peak.
Be careful, don’t fall over, sir! Alright, alright, alright, land, land!” Li Qingshan instructed as the Great Banyan Tree King adjusted his position.

With a great rumble, the Great Banyan Tree King landed slowly, right in the centre of the valley, on the land where the city once stood.
Afterwards, his roots deeply penetrated the ground.

If being called “fellow” by the Great Banyan Tree King had already left everyone surprised, then if he had voiced his actual thoughts about Li Qingshan, even the King of Southern Yue would probably be in disbelief.

Li Qingshan purposefully avoided many topics, but whenever they talked, there would still be traces that the Great Banyan Tree King noticed.
Afterwards, through the assembling and analysis through his wisdom, he received an answer that left him stunned for a very long time.

Who is waiting for him beyond the distant Nine Heavens?

“Are you satisfied with this place, sir?” Li Qingshan asked the Great Banyan Tree King.

“It’s all thanks to you that I could return to the Mist province and even have such a great place to cultivate in.”

The Great Banyan Tree King thanked Li Qingshan.
Although this was merely one of his numerous clones, being rooted to a blessed land like this still brought benefit to his cultivation.

“There’s no need to be so polite, but I do have one small request.
Please preside over the formations of Savage mountain from now onwards.”

Li Qingshan clasped his hands.
He wanted to establish a base in Savage mountain, which would be convenient for his operations in the south.

Although he had cast down a few formations of extraordinary power, these formations were not on the level where he could use them the moment he took them out anymore.
If he wanted to unleash their full power, he had to possess quite the understanding over formations, but that required a large amount of time to develop.
Even with Xiao An’s intelligence and talent, it was not something she could accomplish overnight.

Moreover, it was impossible for Xiao An and him to remain in Savage mountain the entire time.
If there was no one presiding over the formations, their power would decline further.
Right now, all of his opponents lurking in the dark were third heavenly tribulation cultivators.
These formations would struggle to keep them busy for too long.

“I’m just a tree.
Offering shade is my nature, but as for presiding over formations…” The Great Banyan Tree King was troubled.
He had always maintained his neutrality, refusing to become involved in anything.

“You told me to come to the Mist province to get along with me, so I fell out with that old dragon in the Green province.
I’m a Daemon Commander under your command now, so don’t you have to look out for me a little? If someone barges in here, my identity will be exposed immediately.
If news makes it out, that old dragon will even rush over here to kill me.
By then, are you really going to stay out of this?” Li Qingshan poked fun at him.

“Kid, you… Fine then!”

The Great Banyan Tree King smiled wryly.
Under his control, the formations paused for a moment.
The inscriptions flashed and vanished in the air before operating once again.
They became interlinked, functioning together as a whole.

From the outside, the mist that enveloped Savage mountain became even denser, but it was still possible to see the sky outside from the mountain.

“Great king, if you have any requests in the future, let me know.
If an insect is annoying you, I’ll cut it down.”

Li Qingshan smiled and completely relaxed.
Just like that, there was no need for him to worry about anything.
Even if the King of Southern Yue attacked them, he could forget about getting through the formations easily.

“I don’t think I can afford to be called ‘great king’ by you.
It’ll shorten my lifespan!” the Great Banyan Tree King said in exasperation.

“Your lifespan is plenty long anyway, sir, so you don’t need to worry even if you lose a few years.”

Yu Wufeng and everyone else in the surroundings were already left completely speechless.
