Upon hearing this, the Nasen guards glared at him angrily. One of them shouted, "This is disrespectful to the sacred tree! We will never agree to your terms!"

Zhang Hao remained unmoved. He looked at King Nathan with expectation in his eyes: "I believe you will make a wise choice."

Queen Nason was in a state of confusion. She looked at Zhang Hao's confident eyes and thought about the crisis facing Nason Island. She began to waver. She took a deep breath and tried to calm down her emotions: "I... I need time to think about it."

Zhang Hao nodded, turned and left, leaving King Nathan and the Nathan guards where they were.

At night, Queen Nason sat alone under the sacred tree, her heart full of struggle. She thought of Zhang Hao's words, and then thought of the future of Nason Island, her heart was full of contradictions. She closed her eyes and tried to find the answer in her heart.

"Sacred tree, what should I do?" King Nathan murmured softly.

However, the sacred tree did not respond to her. She could only rely on her own judgment to make a decision.

At this moment, Zhang Hao's voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "King Nathan, what have you considered?"

Wang Nasen opened her eyes and saw Zhang Hao standing not far away, looking at her with a smile. She took a deep breath and said, “I…I haven’t made a decision yet.”

Zhang Hao nodded and said, "I understand your hesitation. But time is running out. Behemoth may attack at any time. We need to make a decision as soon as possible."

King Nathan was silent for a moment, then said, "I need more information. Can you tell me exactly what your experiment was? Why do you think it is necessary for the sacred tree?"

Zhang Hao's eyes flashed with admiration when he heard this. He walked to King Nathan and began to explain his experimental plan and purpose in detail.

As Zhang Hao told the story, Queen Nasen's hesitation gradually dissipated. She began to believe in Zhang Hao's sincerity and ability, and also began to understand the importance of this experiment to the sacred tree and Nasen Island.

Finally, Queen Nathan made a decision. She looked at Zhang Hao and said firmly: "I am willing to trust you once. But if you dare to hurt the sacred tree, I will never let you go!"

The Nasen guards stood aside, their faces full of surprise and worry. They had always regarded the sacred tree as a supreme existence that could not tolerate any blasphemy. However, now an outsider, a strong man they could not see through, said he wanted to conduct experiments on the sacred tree. This made them feel unacceptable, and at the same time they were deeply afraid of Zhang Hao's strength.

Zhang Hao looked at their reactions and smiled faintly. He said, "I know what you are thinking, but please believe me, I have a way to influence the sacred tree. Moreover, time is running out, we need to act as soon as possible." His words made Queen Nathan fall into deep thought. She knew that Zhang Hao was powerful, and perhaps he could really bring a glimmer of hope.

Queen Nason was struggling, she wanted to protect the sacred tree and save Nason Island. Finally, she decided to go with the flow and said to Zhang Hao: "I can let you touch the sacred tree, but you must promise me that you will not hurt it." Zhang Hao nodded in agreement.

However, just as they were preparing to act, Nasen Island was attacked at night. A group of unidentified black magicians suddenly appeared and launched a fierce attack. Li Muxuan, Zhang Lingyu, Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing responded quickly. They joined forces to fight against the black magicians and protect the safety of Nasen Island.

The battle was fierce and cruel, but Zhang Hao seemed to be out of it. He sat under the sacred tree and quietly read the ancient book given to him by King Nathan. He was full of interest in the origin and history of the sacred tree, as if all this was more important than the threat from the outside world.

"Are you really not worried?" King Nathan looked at Zhang Hao and asked in confusion. Zhang Hao raised his head and said calmly, "I believe in them. They are capable of dealing with these black magicians. As for me, I have more important things to do."

Queen Nason looked at Zhang Hao's calm and determined eyes, and her heart could not help but waver. She began to suspect that maybe Zhang Hao was really the savior of their Nason Island.

“I didn’t expect there would be such strange things on this island.” Wang Ye sighed, frowning.

Zhuge Qing was excited, with a gleam in his eyes: "This is a good opportunity, we must perform well and let the people of Nasen Island see our strength."

Zhang Lingyu was relatively calm. He said in a deep voice, "Don't be impulsive. We don't know the situation yet. Any rash action may cause trouble."

Zhang Hao shook his head slightly and said, "The situation on Nasen Island is far more complicated than we imagined. The black magician is only part of it. Do you remember the previous attack on the royal city? There may be unknown secrets behind that."

His words made the three people fall into deep thought. Nasen Island, this seemingly peaceful place, hides so many secrets and crises.

Zhuge Qing seemed to be unable to hold back. He stood up and said, "No matter what, we have to go out and check the situation. We can't just stay here and wait to die."

Wang also nodded in agreement: "He makes sense. We can't just sit back and do nothing. Lingyu, what do you think?"

Zhang Lingyu hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go and take a look. But we must be careful and not act rashly."

So the three decided to act separately. Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye went ahead, while Zhang Lingyu stayed in the camp to look after the fire and supplies.

Zhang Hao looked at their backs, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He knew that this operation might be more dangerous than he imagined. But he also understood that sometimes, in the face of the unknown and challenges, people can truly show their courage and wisdom.

Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye walked in the foggy forest, taking every step carefully. The surrounding trees seemed to have hidden eyes, always monitoring their movements.

"It's really weird here." Wang Ye said in a low voice, his hand tightly gripping the hilt of the sword.

Zhuge Qing was very excited. He looked around as if he was looking for something. "Is this the legendary Nason Island? It really lives up to its reputation."

Suddenly, a strange sound was heard, and the two immediately looked towards the source of the sound. A figure flashed out from the woods and approached them quickly. "Be careful!" Wang Ye shouted and drew his sword to meet him.

Zhuge Qing followed closely behind, and the two of them started a fierce battle with the figure. However, they soon discovered that the opponent's strength was far superior to theirs. Every attack was easily resolved, and they themselves gradually fell into trouble.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side. It was Zhang Lingyu! Holding a long sword, he confronted the figure.

"You step back, I'll deal with him!" Zhang Lingyu shouted, his eyes firm and cold.

Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing immediately stepped aside to watch the battle. They knew that Zhang Lingyu's strength was far superior to theirs, and with him around, they might still have a chance of survival.

Li Muxuan, Wang Ye and others stared at this scene in amazement, with an indescribable surprise in their hearts. They had never thought that someone would try to destroy this sacred tree that had influenced Nasen Island for thousands of years.

The annihilation curse quickly spread across the surface of the sacred tree, which made a cracking sound, as if groaning in pain. Spider-web-like cracks appeared on its surface, and it eventually turned into powder and drifted away in the wind.

However, shockingly, the expressions of King Nathan and the Nathan Guards did not change at all. They stood there quietly, as if they had expected all this. Zhang Lingyu, Wang Ye and others looked at each other, full of doubts.

Just when everyone thought the sacred tree had been completely destroyed, a miracle happened. The destroyed sacred tree recovered in the blink of an eye, as if it had never been hurt. It stood before everyone again, lush and full of vitality.

White stood there in disbelief. He couldn't accept the fact that he couldn't destroy the sacred tree. His psychological defenses collapsed in an instant, and he sat on the ground in dejection, as if he had lost all his strength.

Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing looked at each other, and saw surprise and curiosity in each other's eyes. They began to speculate that the sacred tree might have some special and difficult-to-destroy properties. This property made them feel even more awed and curious about the sacred tree.

Queen Nason looked at Zhang Hao, with a flash of pride and faith in her eyes. She explained to Zhang Hao: "The sacred tree is the guardian of Nason Island, and its power is endless. Anyone who tries to destroy it will be punished by the sacred tree."

However, Zhang Hao was unmoved. He looked at King Nathan coldly and said, "I don't need your explanation. I know what I am doing. My experiment will cause some irreversible changes to the sacred tree. You just wait and see."

"Zhang Hao, your strength will be the key to our survival," King Nathan said to him solemnly. Zhang Hao nodded, his eyes gleaming with determination: "I will do my best to protect this land and the people here."

At the same time, Li Muxuan was also stimulated by some unknown reason and decided to cooperate with King Nathan. His joining made the defense of Nathan Island stronger.

"Li Muxuan, I am pleased with your decision." King Nason said with a smile. Li Muxuan took a deep breath and replied, "This is what I should do for the future of Nason Island."

However, Zhang Hao's experimental plan caused concern among the Nasen guards. They were worried that Zhang Hao's experiment might harm the sacred tree and become an enemy of Nasen Island. After learning of this, King Nasen decided to have in-depth consultations with Zhang Hao.

"Zhang Hao, if your experiment may cause harm to the sacred tree, I hope you can continue after the crisis is over." King Nathan said sincerely. Zhang Hao pondered for a moment and nodded: "I understand your concerns, and I will respect the rules of Nathan Island."

At this time, White suddenly launched an attack on the sacred tree. He tried to destroy the sacred tree that symbolized the power of Nathan Island, but ultimately failed. His actions were regarded as breaking the golden branch and becoming the enemy of Nathan Island.

Nathan Wei Elijah took decisive action and executed White personally to maintain the rules and order of Nathan Island. This scene shocked and awed everyone present.

"White's behavior is a provocation and insult to Nathan Island, and he must pay the price for it." Elijah said coldly. His eyes revealed firmness and decisiveness, which made people dare not have the slightest doubt.

Nathan Island is mysterious and ancient. The curse of the golden branch on the island is like a sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's head. King Nathan is the supreme being on the island, and his fate is closely linked to the golden branch. Once the golden branch is broken, only one of King Nathan and the person who broke it can survive.

Zhang Hao stood in front of the sacred tree, facing the conditions proposed by King Nathan, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that behind this condition was the heavy pressure of the Golden Branch Curse. White, the former challenger, his body was slowly devoured by the sacred tree, as if telling of an inescapable fate.

The sacred tree, the holy tree on the island, possesses strange and powerful abilities. It devours corpses, but it also makes the residents of Nasen Island believe that through the sacred tree, their souls can be eternal. Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye stood aside and witnessed all this, their faces full of surprise and confusion.

Ma Xianhong had a different expression. He looked at the sacred tree with a gleam in his eyes, as if he saw something possible. He was amazed at the power of the sacred tree and even compared it to his own perfect self-cultivation furnace. He wondered what it would be like if he could use the power of the sacred tree for his own benefit.
Nasen Island and Biyou Village, two seemingly different places, have surprising similarities. They both possess some mysterious power and are also under the attention and threats of the outside world. Ma Xianhong stood under the sacred tree and fell into deep thought. He wondered if the fate of Biyou Village could be changed in some way, just like Nasen Island?

Ma Xianhong found Zhang Hao and made a request. He hoped to be able to observe and learn when Zhang Hao was conducting experiments on the sacred tree. His purpose was simple, he wanted to regain his lost memories. Those memories were so precious and important to him.

Zhang Hao looked at Ma Xianhong, and he understood the man's desire and persistence. He nodded and agreed to Ma Xianhong's request. He knew that for Ma Xianhong, this might be his only chance to regain his memory.

Zhang Hao stood on the ruins of Biyou Village, thinking back to the past. He remembered his hesitation and helplessness at the time, and also remembered Ma Xianhong's disappointed look. He was filled with guilt, and he knew that his choice at the time might have changed Ma Xianhong's fate.

He mentioned Chen Duo, the girl who was also affected in the Biyou Village incident. He thought that maybe Chen Duo was also filled with guilt and regret like himself.

"Zhang Hao, what should I do?" Ma Xianhong looked at Zhang Hao, his eyes full of help.

Zhang Hao sighed. He knew Ma Xianhong's predicament, but he didn't want to intervene since this matter involved Qu Tong. However, looking at Ma Xianhong's helpless eyes, he finally softened his heart.

"I will help you regain your memory, but I can't guarantee that I will succeed." Zhang Hao said.

Ma Xianhong nodded gratefully, "No matter what the result is, I will remember this favor." (End of this chapter)
