Time rewound to two days ago.
Because the Divine Deer brought the World Fruit to the Root of the World, the Divine Tree, which should have remained dormant for several more years, awoke prematurely, having sustained more severe injuries than the Chaos Dragon God.
After awakening, the Divine Tree understood the mighty power of Infinite City, knew that the Six Paths Flower and Huasheng had been revived, and that Liu Hua had even advanced further. It ultimately discussed a strategy with Lu Ran to combat the Beast Gods faction.
If the Chaos Dragon God had not yet awakened and only the three Beast Gods had done so prematurely, everything would have been straightforward. In fact, without the Divine Tree's intervention, Lu Ran and the Tree King could have resolved the issue between them.
