"Then there was a protracted war, a very famous battle, which was called ...... by later generations"

At this, the huge face frowned slightly, and a look of distress appeared, as if it could not remember the name of the great battle. Xu Ziyan didn't dare to disturb it, so he had to wait there. After a while, the giant face furrowed his brows, smiled, and continued to speak:

"I remember, it's called 'The Battle of the Immortals'. The patriarch and the elders of the clan went to the war, and when I was young, the patriarch didn't let me go! ”

Seeing the huge ancient vine looking at him blankly and no longer speaking, Xu Ziyan was a little anxious, so he opened his mouth and urged:

"And then?"

"Then the patriarch and those elders never came back!" The huge ancient vine suddenly made a bitter face, like an abandoned child.

"You didn't go to them?" Xu Ziyan asked tentatively.

Hearing Xu Ziyan's words, the huge face suddenly became embarrassed, and the ink was inked for a long time, and then he said:

"At the beginning, after the patriarch left, I also secretly left the ancestral land and secretly went to find the patriarch. I searched for a long time, but I didn't know how long it took, and finally I saw a devastating battle taking place on the Waveless Sea in the Northland, and the entire Waveless Sea and the sky above it became a grand battlefield. Those who are highly cultivated are fighting in the sky, and those who are low in cultivation are fighting on the sea, and even in the sea water they are battlefields.

However, all of a sudden, the entire waveless sea suddenly turned into a large whirlpool, and I and countless monks were sucked into this space. This space is terrifying, not only is the gravity amazing, but I can't cast spells, I can only use my own physical strength to fight. Patriarch, I didn't listen to you at the beginning and ran out secretly, you won't blame me! ”

Hearing that Gu Teng still called himself the patriarch, and seeing its timid appearance, Xu Ziyan didn't cry or laugh, so he simply stopped dwelling on this issue, and used the power of his soul to sense the surrounding situation, and found that the surrounding Gu Teng no longer attacked himself and others, but still surrounded himself and others, so he used the power of his soul to observe Gu Teng, and used the power of his soul to roughly transmit the situation of Gu Teng Lin to everyone, and then told everyone to restrain their internal strength, as long as the fusion cultivation can keep the operation of the qi shield.

In this way, everyone's pressure will be much less, and then everyone will use this opportunity to recover their depleted energy as much as possible. Once something happens, you can hold on to it for a while longer, and you will try your best to delay time with Gu Teng, and it is best to delay until dark!

When everyone heard Xu Ziyan's words, they slowly reined in their internal strength, and then began to recover their strength. Driven by curiosity, everyone also secretly looked in the direction of Xu Ziyan, and when they saw a huge face with a diameter of one zhang, they couldn't help but tremble, and a word appeared in their hearts at the same time:

"Demon!"

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xu Ziyan, and when they saw Xu Ziyan calmly looking at the giant face, they couldn't help but admire Xu Ziyan one by one.

At this time, Xu Ziyan remembered the question of the breath that Gu Teng said, so he asked:

"You say that my breath is the same as the breath of your patriarch, and it contains an aura full of life and sacredness?"

"yes!" Koto dotted his huge face.

"And how do you tell the difference?" Xu Ziyan asked curiously.

Hearing Xu Ziyan ask about this, his huge face suddenly became solemn, and he explained seriously:

"Our Aoki clan, whether it is flowers, plants, trees, vines, etc., is the qi of Aoki, and has the meaning of wood. However, the origin of this Aoki qi is light, water, earth, and wind. We need the energy in the light, water, and wind to grow, and if the aura is sufficient, and if we can live for a long time, we will open up the spiritual wisdom and practice with the help of the energy in the light, water, earth, and wind. The better these four energies are fused, the purer and thicker the Aoki Qi will be, and when the Aoki Qi accumulates to a certain extent, it will transform into a human! ”

"And how many shapeshifting Aoki people are there in this forest now?" Xu Ziyan asked a little apprehensively, really worried that he would encounter too many dryads along the way.

"I'm the only one in this forest who has transformed into the Aoki clan!" Gu Teng said gloomily.

Xu Ziyan breathed a long sigh of relief, put his mind at ease, and asked softly:

"You just said that the Aoki Qi cultivated by your Aoki clan is cultivated by fusing the energy in light, water, earth, and wind?"

"yes!" The giant vine nodded in response.

"Then you mean that there is Aoki's qi in my body!"

Xu Ziyan asked suspiciously, because of the lack of knowledge of cultivation in the Northland, even the collection of books in the scripture collection buildings of the major sects is not much, and the books on high-level cultivation are even more pitiful. Moreover, after Xu Ziyan entered the inner gate, he only cared about cultivation, and he didn't have time to watch, and now he was curious when he heard the giant vine talking about the cultivation method of Aoki's qi, and when he heard that it could know the state of the true qi in his body, his heart couldn't help but get excited.

Xu Ziyan's cultivation is different from other monks because there is a space in her body, and it can be said that she can't find such an existence in the entire vast continent, which makes Xu Ziyan have no possibility of referring to the cultivation experience of her predecessors, let alone someone to guide him, all of this depends on her alone to explore, and her cultivation is very hard. Today, I met an old demon who has lived for thousands of years, and I have the idea of asking for advice in my heart.

Sure enough, Juteng said something that shocked Xu Ziyan.

After listening to Xu Ziyan's words, Juteng hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke:

"Yes and no!"

"How?" Xu Ziyan was even more puzzled.

"The true qi in your body is much purer than the aura of Aoki." Seeing that Xu Ziyan was puzzled, he shook his face again and continued to explain: "That is to say, the true qi in your body is more sacred and vital than the qi of Aoki!" ”

"So the true qi in my body isn't Aoki's qi?"

"Not really! The true qi in your body obviously contains the four attributes of light, water, earth and wind, but you have fused these four attributes very well, no! It should be perfect, as if I only smell such a breath in the side of the patriarch! It's just that your current true qi is still very weak, and although you have perfectly integrated the four attributes of light, water, earth and wind, you don't seem to have comprehended the meaning of the wood of Aoki's qi. ”

When Xu Ziyan heard this, his expression was shocked. Instantly, I thought of the time when I fled in the secular world before, and when I fought fiercely in Langya Town, my life qi was exhausted at all. Now that I hear the giant vine say that this Aoki Qi still has the characteristics of being endless, does it mean that the life qi in his body can be used inexhaustibly and endlessly? Thinking of this, Xu Ziyan hurriedly asked:

"What does it mean to be alive and ever? Does it mean that the Aoki Qi in my body can be used inexhaustibly? ”

The huge face nodded and said: "When you understand the endless life of this Aoki Qi, and then cultivate it to the great achievement, you can indeed reach an inexhaustible realm, even if it is a small success, it can also make it more continuous and not easy to exhaust." ”

After Xu Ziyan listened, he stopped speaking and fell into deep thought. And Juteng looked at Xu Ziyan with hesitation on the side, and after a long time, he finally couldn't help but say:

"Aren't you really our patriarch?"

Xu Ziyan woke up from his contemplation, looked at the giant vine sincerely, and said:

"It's not!"

"Yes! The patriarch's cultivation will not be as weak as yours. The giant vine pointed at the huge face, and his expression was a little bitter. A trace of shame passed through Xu Ziyan's heart:

"Despised by plants!"

Suddenly, the huge face rippled with joy, and the giant vine happily said:

"Could you be the reincarnation of the patriarch?"

Xu Ziyan was speechless for a while: "No matter how bad I am, I won't be the reincarnation of a vine!" ”

But she couldn't say it explicitly, as that might provoke the anger of the giant vine, and the result would be serious. So he vaguely said:

"No, I never felt it!"

Seeing that Xu Ziyan did not firmly deny it, the simple giant vine thought that Xu Ziyan must be the reincarnation of the patriarch, and his heart became happy again. Said to Xu Ziyan:

"Patriarch, it's normal that you don't feel it now, and when your cultivation improves and you reach the original realm, you will naturally open the barrier and understand your past life."

"If a person's cultivation is so high that he will know his past life?" Xu Ziyan asked in surprise.

"Of course!"

"What about the Hereafter? When you reach a certain level of cultivation, will you understand the future? Xu Ziyan's heart was pounding, and the question of the generation and limit of time and space that plagued him appeared in his mind again.

"The future is unpredictable, and there is a change! Even if you see the future, the future may not be what you see. Just like the creatures in heaven and earth, they all have their fixed lifespans, but those cultivators can break this shackle, and this is the remaining change in the rules of the Great Dao! ”

"And what are the rules of the avenue?" Xu Ziyan asked reverently.

"I don't know what to do!" The giant vine shook his huge face.

"Then how do you understand the changes in the avenue?" Xu Ziyan asked puzzled.

"I didn't understand!"

Saying this, the huge face was filled with shame, and without waiting for Xu Ziyan to ask again, he continued to say:

"It's what the patriarch told me when I was a child! I've thought about it for thousands of years, but I still haven't figured it out, and now I'm just passing on the patriarch's words to you! ”

After hearing this, Xu Ziyan couldn't help but yearn for the patriarch of the giant vine, and only hated that he was not born thousands of years earlier. Shaking his head, he put these thoughts behind him, and asked Juteng about his concerns:

"Then why does Aoki's breath keep growing?"
