Nine Lifes Cave World, Fifth Layer
This place has turned into a miniature version of the Ghost Path, filled to the brim with frantic ghost creatures. Lifting one’s eyes up, a chilling Yin Qi is all-pervasive, filled with the sorrowful wails of evil spirits. The scene is like a hopeless purgatory.
“What in the world is happening?”
With the Yin Qi churning, a skull as huge as a mountain range condenses in the sky. But even if this monstrous head is exposed for all to see in the sky, the numerous frenzied ghost creatures ignore it, brazenly passing through its skull as if it does not exist at all.
Yet this entity doesn’t seem to care about such trivialities. Its nine heads, with a total of eighteen eyes, are all closely watching the center of the landscape, which has transformed into a miniature Ghost Path. Right there is a tree glowing with a red light resembling a fallen sun.
This is not a big tree, it seems quite slender. It stands about ten meters tall, but there are only a handful of branches growing on the tree trunk. The leaves on the branches are sparse.

However, even if these ghost creatures, which have lost their reason, still don’t dare to approach here. They instinctively know that where the light of this seeming small spiritual tree shines upon, neither ghost creatures nor Yin Qi can be found.
However, this spiritual tree which exudes such divine light that easily restrains countless frenzied ghosts is now wilting.
The crystal-clear leaves, seemingly carved from golden jade, are curling at the edges and gradually losing their brilliance, just like ordinary plants and trees encountering Autumn’s decay, slowly losing their vitality.
“How can this be happening?!”
Seeing that this spiritual tree’s vitality was declining at an alarming rate, as though it was wilting away, Jiuling whirled anxiously. Even without Feng Qing’an’s urging, it knew how crucial this spiritual tree was.
Its desire for the survival and recovery of its Cave Sky to its peak state made Jiuling understand the importance of preserving the spiritual tree. It was ready to pay any cost as long as it could save the tree.
Just by taking root in this layer, the tree was able to fill part of the void of the Cave Sky’s laws. The tree’s growth could naturally and gradually restore the Cave Sky.
“What on earth has happened?”
The Cave Sky’s Spirit was utterly confused. The draining life force from the spiritual tree made it completely baffled and perplexed. It was as if an insatiable invisible creature was shamelessly gnawing at the spiritual tree and swallowing up its essence.
This situation had never occurred before. Even when Jiuling searched through its inherited memories of ancient demons, it could not find a similar situation, not to mention a solution. But it knew one thing: this cannot continue.
If this spiritual tree were to actually wither and die, not only would the restoration plan for its Cave Sky be severely hindered and damaged, but its unpredictable master would surely erupt in fury.
He might even blame the whole incident on it. Losing the spiritual tree is already unbearable, but if it also loses the Cave Sky’s successor who was so hard to find, it would truly be ruined.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“No, it can’t continue like this!”
Jiuling, who has always just watched the creatures within the Cave Sky grow and multiply, began to intervene. Using its own power, it compressed the myriad of ghosts that instinctively fled from the spiritual tree into one sphere and threw them directly at the withering sacred tree.
Swoosh~
As the evil apparitions, forcibly gathered by the Spirit of the Cave Sky, fell under the illumination range of the tree, they were instantly incinerated.
Simultaneously, the five Sun Spirits dwelling on the tree, which have become dull and shriveled as though they had starved for several decades, fluttered their wings and flew out, impatiently starting to devour the evil spirits fed to them by the Spirit of the Cave Sky.
Although Jiuling couldn’t figure out what was happening, seeing that its method of using frenzied ghosts as fuel was effective lifted its spirit. It then began capturing ghosts indiscriminately, sacrificing hordes of them, in order to delay the tree’s wilting effects.
“Indeed, there is a problem. I wish I could leave this cave. For now, I can only try my utmost to protect this tree. As for the cause, I will have to leave that to master to investigate.”
The Spirit of the Cave Sky mumbled and began to preemptively prepare for its master’s blame. After all, the tree was planted within the Cave Sky, which was essentially an order for it to nurture.
“Whatever thing is constantly swallowing, don’t let me catch you, or else…”
With the ghosts being burned by the thousands, Jiuling couldn’t help but feel some resentment. It had exhausted its ideas to persuade its master to establish the Ghost Path, yet now it had to destroy it with its own hands. However, considering the options, the spiritual tree was undoubtedly more important.
“How long will this continue?”
Jiuling didn’t dare to stop for a moment, closely watching the spiritual tree’s changes. When more than half of the frantic spirits have been extinguished, even the Spectral Souls were few and far between, the unknown force consuming the tree’s life gradually lessened.

“Three days, finally managed to get through!”
Jiuling, who easily has the power to crush a Human Immortal, was extremely irritable right now. Its painstakingly constructed Ghost Path had been almost destroyed. It had to feed all the collected frenzied ghosts into the flames of the sacred tree as firewood.
