Chapter 13: The Third Camp
Fukuzawa docked, indicating that the second team had arrived at Hajima. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ji Xia, who had already arrived at the foot of the Heaven and Earth Tree, not only heard the voice, but also had a familiar feeling, which came from a creature she was familiar with, the dragon.
Ji Xia can feel the majesty of the dragon itself and the heat of the dragon body from a long distance, not that Ji Xia's Dao body is too sensitive, but that there is more than one dragon coming this time.
At least hundreds of dragons arrived at Ye Island, and Long Wei was clearly perceived by Ji Xia after hundreds of superimposes.
"Someone's coming." Ji Xia, who was walking on the road, suddenly said.
When Ji Bin heard this, he instantly frowned, he didn't expect to come so quickly: "Can you sense who is coming?" The Cloud Clan is still the Star Clan. ”
Ji Xia shook her head, that wasn't what she could perceive.
Ji Bin's brows furrowed even tighter, it stands to reason that the brothers and sisters of the Ji family do not belong to either of the two camps, they are the camp of the third party who wants to win the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree, so the person who comes is an opponent.
The crux of the matter is that it is not yet time to tear their faces, and the current brothers and sisters of the Ji family are still from the Yun clan, so they can't behave too much.
"And according to the plan?" Ji Hai asked.
Ji Bin thought for a moment and nodded: "According to the plan, let's go up the tree first." ”
Ji Hai handed the Yanlan gun to Ji Xia, holding Fang Tian in his hand, and did not follow Ji Bin and the others up the tree, but sat directly on the blessing at the foot of the Heaven and Earth Tree.
Ji Bin's plan is to let Ji Hai stop all the magicians who want to climb the tree first. Because the Yun clan has not completely turned his face, Ji Hai will not stop the immortals.
Ji Hai also knew that if those magicians flew directly with the Demon Yuan Beads, they would definitely not be able to stop them, but they could consume a lot of Demon Yuan Beads to make Ji Bin Jixia on the tree a little easier, and that was enough.
Ji Hai has already stayed, and there are still many immortals left with him, which is also for Ji Bin to tear his face, and it is easier to deal with the immortals above who are loyal to the Yun clan.
The more than 5,000 people on the island began to climb the Heaven and Earth Tree, and the vast majority of these people were soldiers of the Wood Empire, who directly obeyed Mu Yuan's orders and ignored the orders of the immortals.
Of the more than 5,000 people, more than 4,000 were all prepared for climbing the Heaven and Earth Tree, and more than 1,000 were prepared for the logistics supply of these more than 4,000 people.
The almost hanging Celestial Tree looks unattainable, its trunk is smooth from a distance, but it is extremely rough for a small person.
Among the more than 4,000 people, no one would be stupid enough to start climbing directly by hanging down in an ordinary way, but according to the structure of the Heaven and Earth Tree, a wooden ladder was carved out of the Heaven and Earth Tree, spiraling upward.
More than 4,000 people took tools and began to chisel open the bark of the Heaven and Earth Tree, which could not hurt the Heaven and Earth Tree dozens of miles thick at all, like a child taking a needle to draw a small line on the tree.
This small thread winds around the Heaven and Earth Tree spiraling upward, and keeps climbing upward.
This ladder was chiseled into the tree, but it was only three feet wide, and if the two of them walked opposite each other, those who walked outside must be careful, otherwise they would fall and their flesh and blood would be blurred.
More than 4,000 people took turns to work, and after a day, the wooden ladder had circled to the height of ten miles of the Heaven and Earth Tree, which was the result of the hard work of the first day, and it was faster than expected, after all, the further back the speed, the faster.
Standing ten miles away and looking out, Ji Xia could see the sun setting, and a team was walking through the leaf island, rushing towards the Heaven and Earth Tree.
In the distance, two pieces of blessing floated on the bitter sea, that was the blessing of the Yan Empire and the Wind Empire, and it was the people of the Star Clan who arrived.
The dragon that attracted Ji Xia's attention the most was the dragon, and the hundreds of dragons on Ye Island could keep the size of a small snake because of their lack of vitality, and they could only fly at low altitudes. They serve as a pathfinder for this team, constantly moving through the blessings.
In addition to dragons, there are hundreds of phoenixes, the same as dragons. It's just that they fly higher and look farther away.
These dragons and phoenixes are all black, they must be Starclan, and there are so many dragons and phoenixes, it should be Starfall.
Then, Ji Xia thought, Zhongqiu should also be in this team.
It was already dark, and everyone began to rest.
Ji Xia and the others had no choice but to sleep on the three-foot-wide wooden ladder. Of the more than 5,000 people, half of them went down to Fuze to sleep, and the rest all lay on the wooden ladder that had been cut out, curled up on the wooden ladder, afraid that they would fall from a height of several miles as soon as they turned over.
Ji Xia and Mu Yuan leaned together, watching the moon and stars on the night, and the bitter sea blowing a cool breeze.
"Are you scared?" Ji Xia asked softly.
"Afraid of what?" Kihara asked rhetorically.
"I'm afraid of such a day, I'm afraid of the current situation, Prince Mu." Ji Xia smiled, if they slept a little at night and turned over, they might fall to their deaths.
"Don't be afraid." Kihara replied that he felt wonderful to have such an experience with the person he loved.
"What's the point of staying in a palace for the rest of your life, it's better to come out and go through it all with you. As long as you're around, it doesn't matter where you go, it's not bad to mix up and die in the same place. Kihara said with a smile.
Ji Xia leaned on Kihara's arms, and this time it was very likely that he would really die in the same place.
Ji Xia fell asleep, Ji Hai at the foot of the Heaven and Earth Tree also slept, and the people of the Star Clan also slept.
Only Yun Dao and Xing Dao were still meditating, confronting each other.
Before the critical moment came, the two seemed to have tacitly chosen not to make a move, allowing others to compete fairly, but they were also secretly observing each other, and any small movements were seen by each other.
Tonight's Hajima is awake not only with these two people, but also with one person, or one soul.
"Are you awake?" A hoarse voice woke up Ji Xia, who was still a little drowsy, she slowly opened her eyes and found herself in a secret room.
Same as last time, the old woman is still there, and the secret room is the same. Sealed, no outlet to be found, but wind, moonlight, and sound.
Ji Xia couldn't help but wonder if this secret room was somewhere in the Heaven and Earth Tree, as long as the Heaven and Earth Tree was opened, the old woman could be seen.
The old woman looked at Ji Xia and smiled softly: "It's useless, I am the soul of the Heaven and Earth Tree, and you are also the soul now." Everything here is a state of the soul, the soul of the wind, the soul of light, and the soul of sound. The spirit world will not be so easy to open, and it will not be easily discovered. ”
Ji Xia frowned, that is to say, even Yun Dao and Star Dao could not find out the conversation between her and the old woman at this moment.
"You can force me into here?" Ji Xia was a little surprised.
The old woman chuckled and nodded, the wrinkles on her face were too many to count, and with any movement of the old woman, the white hair was constantly detaching from the old woman's body.
Ji Xia knew that this old woman's days were running out, if Meng Chun took Ji Xia to see the old woman, she was already in her last years, and now she was running out of oil and the lamp was dry.
"Why don't you bring Zhongqiu in too?" Ji Xia asked, I really wanted to see Mid-Autumn side.
The old woman shook her head: "You have to physically touch my trunk, or I won't be able to do it." ”
Ji Xia frowned, if this was the case, Zhongqiu would probably not be able to pass Ji Hai's level. If you can't touch the trunk of the Heaven and Earth Tree, you can't talk to her.
After the two were silent for a moment, Ji Xia slowly realized the important question: "What are you looking for me to do?" ”
The old woman chuckled and asked, "Do you want to win, my child?" ”
Ji Xia nodded, if it wasn't for winning, who would come here.
"Heaven and Earth Tree, it's going to bear fruit again, this is the 100,000th and 1st time." The old woman sighed to herself, her life was no longer certain by the years of the heavenly realm.
"My children, only two of them are still alive." There were cloudy tears in the corners of the old woman's eyes.
Ji Xia can understand a little, she and Zhongqiu are definitely not the Dao Heart Dao Body only conceived by the Heaven and Earth Tree, but the previous Dao Heart Dao Body does not need to complete the sacrifice of themselves for the next soul of the Heaven and Earth Tree. When it came to her and Zhongqiu, because of the imminent death of the old woman, there had to be a sacrifice between Ji Xia and Zhong Qiu.
"Although I am the soul of the Heaven and Earth Tree, the time when the Heaven and Earth Tree bears fruit must be governed by the laws of the Heaven and Earth Tree itself, so I don't know the exact time." The old woman shook her head.
Ji Xia frowned, the other party was the soul of the Heaven and Earth Tree, who had witnessed 100,000 flowering and fruiting, and he didn't even know when the Heaven and Earth Tree would bear fruit.
"But, I can still restrain it." The old woman said with a smile, which made Ji Xia's eyes widen suddenly: she could actually restrain her.
"Can you make the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree bear fruit a little later, or a little earlier?" Ji Xia was really surprised, if the soul of the Heaven and Earth Tree could really control this, it would mean that the fruit could bear fruit at the time he wanted.
The old woman shook her head: "It's not the time to bear, but the time to fall, but no one can touch the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree until it falls, so let's say the same." ”
Ji Xia's eyes showed crazy joy, so if he knew the time, then the chance of winning the Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit would be much greater.
Of course, only the people in the Jixia camp must know, otherwise it will be useless.
"Are you happy?" The old woman asked.
Ji Xia smiled and nodded, this matter is indeed happy.
"Well, it's been a long time since I've seen you smile so happily, and you used to laugh when you didn't laugh right." The old woman said with pity, making Ji Xia wonder, could it be that the old woman had been watching her before, knowing all her joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and monitoring her every move.
"I'm also a Dao Heart Dao Body, but I can see the whole heaven and earth." The old woman explained that compared to Ji Xia, her Dao Heart and Dao Body had reached an incredible level.
Ji Xia nodded slightly, knowing that it was the result of long-term use of the Dao Heart Dao Body.
"Come to me." The old woman said, her voice full of love.
Ji Xia hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked to the old woman's side, and lowered his head to look at the old woman.
The old woman slowly raised her hand, and the hand like a dead branch touched Ji Xia's smooth face, making Ji Xia's face a little painful, but Ji Xia still held back.
The old woman touched Ji Xia's delicate face, like a mother's instinctive love for her children, she smiled slightly, smiling from the heart: "My child, go to sleep, I'm going to sleep too, I've been sleeping so much lately, I'm afraid I'm going to sleep for a long time." ”
Ji Xia frowned, wanting to say something more, but finally left the old woman in silence and returned to the sleeping place, when it was midnight outside.
Ji Xia couldn't sleep in Kihara's arms, and she was excited about what the old woman had promised her, and she looked at the flower of the Heaven and Earth Tree above her head, thinking that it would not be long before the fruit would bear fruit there. And she Ji Xia will know better than anyone else.
Her third camp in Ji Xia seemed to have a greater chance of winning than the two camps of Nebula for a while.
If the old woman really promised her.
