[Love of the Divine Tree]

[Episode 37]

That day in the Empyrean Bone Sacrifice Formation,

I didn't try to make you perish into ashes.

Yu,

let's go.

I've told you that

you're not able to take him away.

In front of the demonic weapon Dun Tian gave me,

this little power is not enough.

Please come quickly!

Escort His Highness back to
his palace for a rest now.

Summon the imperial physician
to treat him with medicine.

[Cold Cloud Hall]

Look after him carefully.

- Yes. - Yes.

Where is Dun Tian?

Your Highness,

he's not in the hall.

Then I'll just wait for him here.

If he knows that

I rescued Su Yu

from Mu Qingge's hands,

he'll surely trust me more, won't he?

Here.

Shui,

wake up now.

It's me.

Just some petty tricks.

Don't bother me here.

Are you and Su Yu

both under Dun Tian's control?

What a foolish mortal.

You thought that I would want to go back?

So he has fallen so deeply into devilry?

[Su Yishui]

[Su Yu]

Master, we're here.

Now that we're faced with a great enemy,
my strength alone is limited.

I have to rely on you all
to destroy Dun Tian's plot together.

Ranran, if you need any help,

just tell us.

Now we know that in order
to open the Three Thousand Realms Tower,

it requires the huge spiritual channel power
from the Heavenly Sects.

That was why he came up with
the method of using shadow people

to seize the spiritual channel.

He made Su Yishui fall

into devilry because he wanted
to take advantage of the Mortal-Demon Lord.

Then why does he want to keep an eye on Su Yu?

Su Yu is not a member of the Heavenly Sects.

What's the thing that Su Yu has
and is essential for

the Three Thousand Realms Tower?

Su Yu is the current Crown Prince.

Perhaps opening the Three Thousand Realms Tower
requires some worldly power.

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

But no matter what,

Su Yu must be

an important part of it.

I will find a way to rescue him.

Besides,

where exactly is this tower?

Xi'er, Gao Cang, Bai Baishan,
go figure out the method

of eradicating the shadow people now.

Even if you have to search
through all the records about strange creatures,

you must find it.

You have to be quick.

Yes.

Zeng.

Go help them, too.

Also, help me keep a closer eye on

Mu Ranwu's movements.

She's now working for Dun Tian.

Okay.

I'll set off immediately

to investigate the conditions
of opening the Three Thousand Realms Tower.

Only by figuring this out
can we take corresponding actions.

But Master, there's no way
of asking about or investigating

the Three Thousand Realms Tower.

From what aspect are you going
to start the investigation?

Since there's no way of asking about it,
I have no choice but to consult the future.

The future?

Back then, in Uncle Ye Xin's cabin,

I found the Heavenly Book.

After reading it,

I feared that the Heavenly
Book might be used by villains,

so I hid it on Divine Dragon Island
and sealed it there.

As long as we can know the future first,
we'll certainly know

Dun Tian's next move.

No matter what he wants,

only by finding it first

can we stop him.

But prying into Heaven's secrets comes at a price.

Master, are you really going to do this?

Dun Tian's spiritual power is immense,
and he acts with great caution.

To defeat him,

we can only take this risky move.

Alright.

Let's set off separately.

Let's keep in touch with
the sound transmission talismans anytime.

You're indeed the Mortal-Demon Lord.

You're really unlike ordinary mortals

with their limited vision and knowledge.

You've been keeping an eye on me.

You took pains to summon me back here,
but you didn't make it clear

what your plan was.

You're even wary of me constantly.

What exactly do you mean?

Back then, your cultivation was unparalleled.

Since you want to open
the Three Thousand Realms Tower,

you would've done it long ago
if you had been capable of it.

Now that you're making such a big plan,
it can only mean that

the conditions of opening the Three
Thousand Realms Tower haven't been fully

grasped by you even till now.

And you

need my help.

Since you want me to help you,

shouldn't you show some sincerity?

You're right.

However,

you're only right about part of it.

To open the Three Thousand Realms Tower,
it's necessary to gather

the Child of the Human Emperor,
the Child of the Divine Dragon

and you,

the Child of the True Devil.

I have to offer the blood of the Three Children

to the tower and then use
the massive spiritual channel

as the energy.

That's the only way to open the tower.

I've summoned you back here

not just to help myself
seize the Heavenly Sects' spiritual channel.

What's more, you're also

crucial to me.

Defying Heaven's will

is bound to be extremely risky.

We can't afford any mistakes.

Previously, you said that you had
selected the location for the tower's core.

Is it reliable?

There's no need to worry about it.

I have already made all the preparations.

Aren't you afraid that members
of the Heavenly Sects will find that place first?

No one will find that place.

However, there is one thing
which I'm quite worried about.

Back then, that girl found the Heavenly Book,

and she sealed it on Dragon Island.

The person monitoring the Wester Sect told me
that she had already flown

towards Dragon Island.

If she pries into the secrets
of the Heavenly Book successfully,

all our plans will be exposed.

It will be difficult for us to deal with it then.

If I ask you

to go destroy the Heavenly Book,

this time,

you won't fail, will you?

Imperial physician, please take care.

Bye.

Fortunately, I have the talisman
which Ranran gave me.

In this way,

others won't be able to recognize me.

Water.

Bring me some water!

Come over here now!

Your Highness.

What's your name?

The tea you served suits my taste very well.

Your Highness.

My...

My name is Xueyan.

I'm a new palace maid here.

Help me to the window to take a look.

The wind is strong this year.

I wonder whether it'll also snow heavily

when the winter snow comes.

It is said that after a heavy snow,

it'll be a year with a good harvest.

Do you know

when the Three Thousand Realms Tower opens,
the world in your eyes

will be destroyed?

The people you claim to love
and the country you're trying to protect

will all perish because of your desire.

If all of them disappear,

don't you think it'll be such a pity?

Xueyan.

Do you think I will be a wise ruler?

Be honest with me.

I hope that Your Highness will be a wise ruler.

When people are in a desperate situation,
mistakes are inevitable.

But Your Highness, if you want to be a wise ruler,

you will certainly be able to do it.

Where is he?

It's only been a short while,
and he has disappeared.

Tell me where he is!

That's strange.

All this night, I didn't sense
any Heavenly people coming here.

Who has taken him away?

He found that place.

Shui, you're here.

Shui.

Did Dun Tian hurt you?

Come on. Let's go home.

Is it fun to deceive me

with such a trick?

I was almost

fooled by your tricks.

I didn't expect that
you would be able to resist

till now with a trace
of spiritual soul inside the void.

You haven't turned into a devil at all.

If I hadn't done this,
I wouldn't have known the place

where you initiated the tower.

But you realized it too late.

I've already destroyed that place.

Dun Tian.

No matter how well you've hidden the tower's core,

it'll still be destroyed by me eventually.

Brother, why are you here?

As for that fake Su Xiaoxiao,

I've eliminated her, too.

The tower's core was indeed destroyed by you!

So you've found out about everything?

That's interesting.

To find the tower's core,

you must have put in a lot of effort, right?

Every time we talked about the location
of the tower's core, you were always evasive

and tried to hide the truth.

Obviously, the tower's core is extremely crucial.

But I never saw you
taking any actions to guard it.

It indicated that you already
controlled this place completely and definitely.

And in this world, what place
do you know so well?

This reminded me of the cabin
where you lived as Ye Xin.

It was an exact replica of the old home
where you lived with your wife and daughter.

Since you refused to let go of your obsession
and wanted to look back upon everything,

I supposed it started from that place.

When I went to check the cabin,
there was nothing unusual on the surface,

but the barrier concealing
spiritual power was underground.

When I uprooted and destroyed the cabin,
the huge spiritual channel

was hidden beneath it indeed.

I've destroyed that place.

Even if you can obtain
the Three Children in your plan,

there'll be no place
for you to initiate the tower.

Moreover,

you can obtain

neither Su Yu nor me.

Su Yishui, I didn't expect
that though you have many

regrets in your life, you would still refuse
to join me in defying Heaven

and making amends for regrets, huh?

Only the incompetent people
would wish to turn back time.

I've always only moved forward

without looking back.

Don't you want to go to a world
where you're not a devil's child

and haven't lost your beloved woman and family?

As people journey through life,
they tend to lose many things

that they originally wanted to obtain.

But they might also gain many things
that they never thought they'd have.

I only want to move forward,

with no intention of changing even a bit
of the current situation.

Fine.

That's interesting.

Do you really think that
with your own power, you can stop me?

You thought that the Soul-Cleansing Charm
only removed your memories.

The Falling Water in that charm
was actually my backup plan to subdue you.

I'm not the only one working on this,

but Ranran is also about to reach Dragon Island.

As long as she reads the Heavenly Book,
she'll know your plan

and will surely stop you.

You were like this in your former life,
and you're still the same in this life.

She's the one

who has made you so weak

and foolish.

Now that

she has already become your weakness,

we must eliminate her immediately.

Mortal-Demon Lord,

destroy the Heavenly Book

and k*ll Xue Ranran

to forever eliminate

the future troubles for us.

[Cliff outside Dragon Island]

I'm Xue Ranran from the Wester Sect!
I'd like to meet the Dragon Goddess!

I'm Xue Ranran from the Wester Sect!
I'd like to meet the Dragon Goddess!

Benefactor!

Benefactor, it's really you.

You're...

that little dragon from the capital?

Yes.

[Little Green Dragon, Qing Luo]

I've recovered from my injuries
and can turn into the human form now.

So you want to enter Dragon Island?

I have an urgent matter
to discuss with the Dragon Goddess.

My Mother Goddess has refused
to see outsiders in recent years.

Even when those old fellows
from the Immortal Realm came here,

it was still useless.

If you want to see her,
I'll figure out a way.

I'll take you to enter the island first.

[Dragon Island]

Let me check on my Mother Goddess first
to see how her mood is today.

Qing Luo!

I've been too lenient with you.

How dare you bring a mortal
to Dragon Island without permission?

Mother Goddess,

she is not an ordinary mortal.

Previously, I was confined in water
by the imperial family of the mortal world.

She was the one who saved me.

In that case,

[Dragon Goddess]

I'll forgive you for trespassing on my island.

You cultivators

from the mortal world come here only
to get magical treasures and spiritual medicine.

Just tell me

what you want.

Since you've done Qing Luo a favor,

I won't treat you badly.

I'm here not for treasures,

but to retrieve something.

You're here to retrieve something?

Yes.

Twenty years ago,

I hid an item from the Immortal Realm

on Dragon Island.

So you're the one who hid

the Heavenly Book on Dragon Island?

Do you know

how many times people from the Immortal
Realm have come to bother us about this?

How dare you!

Dragon Goddess, you're wise.

During the chaos of the Spirit Spring,

I had no choice but to borrow
the Heavenly Book for a look.

To prevent this treasure
from causing turmoil in the mortal world again,

I had to hide it on Dragon Island.

What happened in the mortal world
was none of our Dragon Island's business.

How could you make us get involved in it?

Even though you're unwilling to accept it,

the Dragon Clan was
already involved in it long ago.

Dragon Goddess, do you still remember Meng Zhang?

Meng Zhang descended

to the mortal world all because
of the troubles caused by the Spirit Spring.

If you ignore this,
then I'm afraid the crisis this time

might be even severer than before.

The Dragon Clan's victims

won't be limited to Meng Zhang anymore.

Fine.

If you want to read
the Heavenly Book, then just read it.

The Heavenly Book is inside it.

That crack...

Over these years, the Immortal
Realm kept sending people to bother us,

so I created

a spatial crack

and threw the Heavenly Book into it.

We finally had a few years of peace.

Go inside and retrieve it yourself.

Be careful with everything.

Mother Goddess.

My benefactor won't be in danger, will she?

That depends on whether

she can defeat Heaven's will.

I found you.

You...

actually managed to enter
the space created by the Dragon Goddess?

Since I've collaborated
with Dun Tian, in this world,

are there any places that I can't enter?

The Heavenly Book is over there.

Let's see which of us can get it first!

Mu Qingge.

Twenty years ago, I was already able
to domineer over everything.

Because of you, I was sealed for many more years.

Now that I'm out,

we need to get even with each other properly.

We need to get even with each other
for many things indeed.

But what I want to do the most now
is to pry into Dun Tian's plan

and then save Shui.

Let me borrow your demonic energy.

All the Three Children are gathered here.

The Three Thousand Realms Tower has been built.

As an oblation, this world

shall shatter now!

To build the Three Thousand Realms Tower,

the most important things are the Three Children.

Su Yu

is the Child of the Human Emperor,

while Shui is the devil's child.

Who exactly is the third child?

I'll make you disappear
along with the Heavenly Book!

You seem to have forgotten that
destroying it is much easier than snatching it.

There's something I need to tell you.

Just now, when I borrowed your demonic energy,

my purpose was not only
to break the Heavenly Book's seal

but also to send a message to the Dragon Goddess.

Glorious Divine Power.

The Azure Dragon subdues devils.

Fire-refined Dragon Crystal?

You knew I would come here?

That's right.

If you want to read
the Heavenly Book, then just read it.

I have one more request.

The person who has brought chaos
to the world fears

that his plan will be exposed
by the Heavenly Book.

So when I open the Heavenly Book,

he will definitely try to stop me.

I've heard that if the Gold Refining Fire
is integrated with Dragon Breath,

it can turn into the
Fire-refined Dragon Crystal that can destroy

all devils in each realm.

Dragon Goddess, please give me this treasure
to ensure the peace of the mortal world.

You once helped Meng Zhang and Qing Luo.

I will help you make

the Fire-refined Dragon Crystal.

However,

don't you want to stay alive anymore?

The Heavenly Book is made from dragon scales.

Although I'm not as far-sighted
as the Heavenly Book,

I do have the ability to foresee the future.

From you,

I've foreseen an inevitable death.

If you use the Fire-refined Dragon Crystal
to dispel his demonic energy,

you will be k*lled by him.

Even so,

there are some things that I have to do.

Shui.

I'm here to save you!

Xue Ranran.

You've been so scheming.

Do you think that I entered

this space alone?

Someone is trying to destroy the formation.

To finish such an important matter,

how can I not personally oversee it?

As long as I'm faster,

Shui can be saved.

Ranran.

Go! Leave now!

I've long hated that I can't completely get rid
of Su Yishui at the bottom of my heart.

Today, I'll k*ll you and dig out the Essence Core.

Then he will never appear again.

I'm just inches away from success.

No.

No way!

I can never...

You can still emerge from

the consciousness?

This time, I will destroy you completely!

Divine Dragon Light?

Dragon Goddess?

Shui!

♫ Who knows the loneliness of mountains and seas? ♫

Let's...

eliminate him together.

♫ The sharp wind cuts at my heart ♫

♫ Who says the world is full of wrongs? ♫

Shui!

♫ I seize the Way and choose heaven ♫

Shui!

♫ It won't be a waste of my life
to burn until I wither ♫

♫ There's no need to discuss right or wrong ♫

♫ I can sacrifice my life ♫

Shui!

♫ All rules can be dismantled ♫

Shui!

♫ Die in this world ♫

You shattered your own Essence Core.

♫ The masses spread rumors that are hard to swallow ♫

♫ I haven't said anything yet, my heart is clear ♫

♫ I still don't regret it;
I'll pay for it all my life ♫

♫ You know my heart, won't go against my wishes ♫

♫ Don't speak of redressing injustices ♫

♫ Don't let others pity me ♫

♫ Try your best to forget me ♫

♫ I'll go through hardships and never break down ♫

♫ I vow to fight against darkness ♫

♫ Love punishes me a thousand times,

Shui.

♫ No pain, no resentment ♫

Master.

Master!

♫ Devoting one's life despite knowing it can't be ♫

Wake up!

Wake up now!

♫ Coming to the abyss

No!

♫ Who says the world is full of wrongs? ♫

Shui!

♫ I seize the Way and choose heaven ♫

Master!

♫ It won't be a waste of my life

I didn't expect that

for your sake, he would defy
and change Heaven's will

and destroy his own Essence Core.

♫ Only love is the unbreakable spell ♫

I'm going to save you.

Mount Cuiwei.

♫ No need to feel surprised people
in the world don't know how to break it ♫

I have to go to Mount Cuiwei.

Qing Luo.

Escort her there.

♫ Sealing your lips, never to speak again ♫

♫ Even if I were to leap into the abyss ♫

Mother Goddess.

♫ If you are safe, I would embrace death
without a second thought ♫

Can he really be saved?

He destroyed his own Essence Core.

His demonic energy was dispersed
by the Fire-refined Dragon Crystal.

But without the protection of the Golden Core,

his internal meridians were also

severely damaged by
the Fire-refined Dragon Crystal.

His foundation is completely gone.

His Spirit Root is totally broken.

Even if spiritual pills
and power are infused into his body,

it would be like a stone sinking into the sea

and would be useless.

Is there really no other way?

If his Golden Core had still existed,
he could repair his Spirit Root

and meridians by himself.

But now, no external forces

can enter his body.

I have half of his Golden Core inside my body.

I'll give it back to him.

Don't do that.

Since he used half of his Golden Core
to help you come back to life,

that Golden Core has already
turned into drops of spiritual power

and are scattered in your heart.

It's no longer a physical object.

Whether you take one or half
of it out of your body,

it will affect your entire body.

You'll perish in the end.

Ranran.

If something bad happens to you, what he did today

will be in vain.

After his soul was cleansed, he kept talking
about getting back his Essence Core.

But in the end, for my sake,

he even sacrificed

his own Essence Core.

There must be another way.

Golden Core...

I once used a Golden Core
to seal the Spirit Spring.

After I sealed the Spirit Spring
in the netherworld,

the Golden Core was shattered
and scattered in the netherworld.

I can collect all the fragments
and reassemble them.

The entrance to the netherworld
has been completely sealed.

It's not that easy to go back there.

There must be a way.

- I'm going to give it a try. - Wait!

If you insist on going to the netherworld,

I have an idea.

When you were in the netherworld,
did you use any golden talismans?

Do you have any of the same

golden talismans with you now?

Yes.

Do you

want to use the remaining spiritual power
of the golden talisman

to connect the netherworld and this world?

Yes.

The spiritual power of the golden
talisman can connect the two worlds.

But, girl, if I want to send you

over there completely, my magical
power won't be big enough to sustain it.

But...

But you've mastered the Soul Splitting Technique.

Sending a piece of your split soul there
might be worth a try.

No, no.

The split soul's spiritual power is weak.

What if the split soul encounters demonic
creatures and is torn apart in the netherworld?

He's right.

Let's forget about it then.

He even turned my inevitable death around.

Now that I have a chance to save him,
I will never give up.

Let's begin.

This device will automatically search for
the locations of the Golden Core fragments.

You just need to hold this device
to get close to them and collect them.

There's a fragment nearby.

It's the last piece.

It's right in the depths of the netherworld.

Oh, no.

Her energy must have
been detected by the demonic creatures,

and she's now being attacked by them.

Girl, come back now!

Don't be reckless!

There's only one piece left.

I absolutely won't give up.

Since the power of Heaven
and Earth can be borrowed,

why can't I borrow demonic energy?

Come on!

One wisp of qi

to break the galaxy!

Ranran!

The Golden Core...

I've collected it and brought it back.

Shui can be saved now.

Is it okay now?

The Golden Core can't enter his heart.

It shouldn't be like this.

Unless...

he's rejecting

the Golden Core himself.

Let me check on it.

Indeed, his spiritual heart is wavering.

He's not accepting the Golden Core.

Could it be that his demonic
energy hasn't completely dissipated,

so he's being influenced by it?

That's not the reason.

His consciousness is in chaos.

He's trapped in a nightmare.

It's caused by something bothering his mind.

If the nightmare isn't removed,
his spiritual heart will be destroyed.

The Golden Core surely can't enter his heart.

As the saying goes,

"When the skin is gone,"
"the hair on it won't exist, either."

All our efforts are in vain, aren't they?

Liang,

if this continues,

I'm afraid he'll...

What if I enter the nightmare

in his consciousness and solve
the problem bothering his mind?

I remember you've researched this before.

I have researched it,

but there's no successful precedent.

Do you know what kind
of problem might be bothering his mind?

Can you figure out what kind
of nightmare he has fallen into?

Human minds are complex.

In the vast sea of consciousness

and memories, it's not an easy task
to find the problem bothering his mind.

If you're not careful,
you might be dragged into

his nightmare, too.

Then I still have to give it a try.

If he dies,

you

won't survive, either.

I want to take a gamble.

I'm betting that

he won't let me die with him.

Alright.

Since you've made up your mind,
I can help you enter his dream.

But Su Yishui

can't hold on much longer.

You need to break his nightmare

before this incense burns out.

Only then

can both of you be safe.

[Consonance Palace in Su Yishui's Dream]

I finally found it.

You betrayed your master and ancestors.

You deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces!

Su Yishui.

Have you realized your mistakes?

Stop!

Master!

Su Yishui!

Why?

Why can't I open it?

Oh, no.

Once the nightmare energy
completely swallows his dream realm,

he will never wake up again.

This incense will burn out soon.

If she doesn't come out now, the girl will

trap herself inside.

Liang, figure out a way now.

Ranran, time is running out.

If you give up now,
I can still use all my life's energy

to protect you and bring you out.

But if we wait until
the incense burns out completely,

I'm afraid...

I know.

I just don't know why

I can't enter his dream realm.

You can't enter his dream realm?

As far as I know, only when the dream master

has set up a mental barrier around the dream realm
will this situation occur.

You need

to break the dream master's mental defence first

before you can be accepted by his dream realm.

I can't stay in the dream realm for too long.

From now on,

you'll have to rely on yourself.

What exactly is your mental defence?

You betrayed your master and ancestors.

You deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces!

Su Yishui.

Have you realized your mistakes?

It's all my fault.

If you had never met me,

you wouldn't have been hurt by me

again and again.

That's not true.

This is not your fault at all.

Without having met each other before,

even if we could avoid some pain,

what about those happy times?

Do you want to give them up too?

You have brought me so
much happiness in this life.

From the past

till now, you've always been a indispensable ray

of light in my life.

Could it be that

light can break his mental defence?

Shui!
