Sun Tree

The Sun Tree of the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation was the equivalent of the Heavenly Court to the Kingdom of the Nine States. It was the place in this nation that transcended above all else.

The Sun Tree was slightly inferior to the Heavenly Court in terms of overall strength, but it allegedly had three mythological beasts within its ranks, one of which was the Eternal Sun God mentioned as the brother of the guardian of the Sun Tree.

## Appearance

The circumference of the Sun Tree’s trunk was huge, probably around a few kilometers, and it extended straight into the sky, as if it were the bridge connecting heaven and earth.

The canopy was split into several levels, with each level comprising a floating continent. The canopy at the bottom was the biggest with a radius of around fifty kilometers. From there, the area of the canopies became smaller as one went up, as if this was a conical tree.

The Sun Tree was indeed very beautiful.

The tree trunk was pretty ordinary, but the tree leaves were marvelously beautiful.

The leaves on each of its levels were different in colors, making it appear as if it were a separate rainbow biosphere that was diverse and beautiful.

The leaves on the lowest level were lime green, giving off a sense of teeming vitality.

The second layer of leaves was light orange, glowing with a sheen similar to that of a beautiful jade.

The third layer of leaves was golden, shining with a regal, dazzling light that would blind someone if they stared at them for too long.

The fourth layer of leaves was crimson red, like a roaring sea of flames.

The fifth layer of leaves was a deep blue, like the surging ocean.

The sixth layer of leaves was a dark purple, like the ethereal purple light that could sometimes be witnessed in the night sky.

The top three levels were obscured from view by white cloud and mist.

A strong wind blew past, and all of the different colored leaves rippled and surged in a scene of magnificent beauty.

The Sun Tree held an extremely holy position in the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation. It represented hope and life and could not be encroached upon by anyone.

## Trivia

* Apparently, Sun Tree is divided into nine levels of continents. Normal beings can only access the first six levels. To reach the top three levels it is necessary to have some kind of special identity.
* The Eighth level is where the nest of the Vermilion Bird Princess is located and probably those of the other mythical beasts of the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation.
