An Lin’s response made the yellow cow falter for a few seconds.

The yellow cow then came to a realization with regard to what he was alluding to, and he almost threw up a mouthful of blood.

“Brother An Lin, I am a proper cow!” the yellow cow said in a solemn voice.

An Lin gave a dismissive nod.

This was a like a girl who had tattoos, smoked, drank, swore like a trooper, and frequented night clubs telling him that she was a good girl. Cool story, buddy!

It was no wonder that An Lin would come to such a conclusion. After all, the yellow cow had been urging An Lin to go to the prostitution areas of the Sun Tree since earlier.

The board continued to rise.

Soon, they arrived at the second level of the Sun Tree.

The second level was slightly smaller than the first and had light orange leaves. The continent here was vibrant and glowed like a beautiful jade. Stepping onto the orange leaves below was like stepping onto a soft rug.

The yellow cow led the way and made an enthusiastic introduction.

“The second level is a place mainly for refining all sorts of tools and pills. If you want some tools refined, I know a top-notch tool refinement master and can introduce you to them.” The yellow cow slapped his chest.

An Lin waved a hand. “Not interested.”

He had the Purple Star inheritance of mechanical engineering and knew how to refine all sorts of tools, so there was no need to visit any other tool refinement masters. It was just that he had too many treasures in his storage ring, and he couldn’t be bothered to refine anything for himself.

An awkward smile appeared on the yellow cow’s face before he continued to introduce the intricacies of the second level.

An Lin was a little disinterested, and he waited for a short moment before asking, “I’m interested in going to the top three levels of the Sun Tree. Do you have some way to get me there?”

The yellow cow’s expression became more grave at the mention of the top three levels.

“The top three levels are mysterious restricted areas even to the native inhabitants of the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation, let alone outsiders like you…” the yellow cow replied.

“It’s exactly because it’s mysterious that I’m curious. Why don’t you tell me about it?”

“I only know about the seventh level. I heard that the most regal members of the Vermilion Bird Tribe live there. As for the eighth and ninth levels, I really don’t know anything.”

“How much do you know about the guardian of the Sun Tree?” An Lin asked.

The yellow cow responded with a cautious expression, “What are you trying to do?”

An Lin heaved a long sigh. “To be honest with you, I’m very curious about the guardian of the Sun Tree. If there is a chance that I can approach it, I can pay whatever price required.”

The yellow cow heaved a sigh of relief at An Lin’s transparency. “There’s no one in the entire Southern Heavenly Wing Nation that isn’t curious about the guardian of the Sun Tree. Even though I’m curious, I still know nothing about it.

“There is a legend that when the guardian of the Sun Tree descends upon the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation in her true form, beautiful red feathers will float down from the sky. A blue, divine wind will sweep throughout the entire continent, and the hidden bird-tribe forces will be completely unleashed. When that time comes, the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation will welcome a true revolution.”

An Lin became even more curious after hearing this.

Was the guardian of the Sun Tree that bad*ss?

The yellow cow said after a momentary pause, “However… Brother An Lin, if you want to go to the seventh level, I do know of a way.”

An Lin was ecstatic upon hearing this. “What is it?”

“If you can fight at the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation Arena for a day and become the final champion, you will earn yourself a chance to enter the seventh level,” the yellow cow replied.

“I’m good in a fight! Let’s go!” An Lin was brimming with confidence.

“Don’t be rash. There is another point that you must know.” The yellow cow’s expression became solemn.

An Lin turned toward him with confusion on his face.

“All arena battles are battles to the death! Which means that one party must die before the other can be declared the victor. Furthermore, there are no cultivation base restrictions!

“On a lucky day, many Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators can become the champion. On unlucky days, there may even be some Return to Void Stage mighty figures joining in on the battles!”

The yellow cow turned to look at An Lin. “I know you’re very powerful, but what if you’re down on your luck and encounter a Return to Void Stage mighty figure? You have to realize that you can’t withdraw after entry.”

An Lin’s expression remained indifferent. “How powerful was the most powerful Return to Void Stage mighty figure that has appeared in the history of the arena?”

“Return to Void Intermediate Stage.” The yellow cow replied in a heavy voice, “That time, it was more of an abattoir than an arena…”

An Lin couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “The sixth level we go!”

The yellow cow was shocked by his response. “Brother An Lin, are you sure you won’t reconsider? There’s no need to take such a big risk just for a chance to go to the seventh level!”

An Lin’s footsteps faltered slightly as he turned his head to look at the yellow cow. An unparalleled aura erupted from his body as he sneered, “Risk? The only risk is to all of the other competitors unlucky enough to face me!”

The yellow cow was stunned by his words, and he continued onward with a blank expression.

He only muttered to himself after a long while, “I’ve never seen such a natural flexer!”

An Lin had already made up his mind to go to the sixth level, and the yellow cow could only follow him.

They passed through the dazzling, regal golden continent, the scorching, fiery, red continent, and the ocean-like blue continent to arrive at the mysterious purple continent.

“Is this the sixth level?” An Lin looked around at his fairly monotonous and drab surroundings before setting his eyes on the massive arena in the distance.

This arena was extremely huge and encompassed almost half of the entire purple continent’s land area. Bursts of rumbling and boom could be heard from within, as well as the frenzied roars of the spectators.

“That’s right, this is the craziest, most gruesome, but also the most glorious place on the Sun Tree!”

A scorching light appeared in the yellow cow’s eyes. “Every powerful being within the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation would want to come here to prove themselves. As long as they become the final champion of the day, even a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator would be respected and revered by countless birds. The champion of the arena not only requires strength, but they also need to have the courage to fight to the death!”

“I like this place! Life should be full of battle and devoid of fear!” Xue Zhantian looked at the colossal building in the distance with a sense of longing in his eyes.

Boom boom boom…

The rumblings from the battles as well as the light escaping from the arena were setting their battle intent alight.

An Lin’s eyes were bright as his vision pierced through the purple night fog to focus on the bold, golden characters above the gate—Sun Tree Arena!

“Let’s go!” He led the way toward the arena.

The yellow cow could only follow along.

As a gold-tier tour guide, even if his customer wanted to commit suicide, he had to wait until his current customer was dead before looking for the next one. This was part of why he was considered a true professional in the industry.
