Chapter 149: Old Bai Ze
"Let's go, I'll take you to the Longevity Fruit Forest, as for whether you can get the Longevity Fruit, it depends on your own creation. But I can remind you, don't make the owner of the fruit forest unhappy, otherwise you won't be able to get the longevity fruit, don't throw your life there!" Ying Zhao instructed Chen Yuan very cautiously.
"Now, but Lu Shu is unconscious, is it okay to leave him here alone?" Chen Yuan didn't expect Ying Zhao to be so resolute, he said to leave, and he was a little worried about Lu Shu's safety for a while.
"You can rest assured, this area is my territory, no foreign beast dares to come here to spread wild, and have you seen that giant tree? It is a boundary void tree, looking at the entire Nine Heavens Domain, there are only a few of the four forbidden lands, its leaves have the effect of filtering and transforming spiritual power attributes, and this realm void tree itself is an invisible barrier, only the creatures approved by it are qualified to enter the area it shelters.
Therefore, you can rest assured of the safety of Lushu, some malicious beasts will never be able to get close to the range of the Boundary Sky Tree, and will be blocked by the enchantment formed spontaneously by it, which is why I can take you to the Longevity Fruit Forest with confidence. Ying Zhao pointed to the tall and unusual tree outside the courtyard of the stone house, and said to Chen Yuan.
At this time, Chen Yuan suddenly realized that as soon as he entered the Yingzhao Flower Garden, he was wondering, why there were strange flowers and plants everywhere here, and there were countless cherished elixirs and spiritual materials, but when Yingzhao was not there, it was still peaceful, no intruders came to steal the elixir, and the rich aroma produced by countless exotic flowers and plants seemed to be unable to spread, it turned out to be a barrier naturally formed by the empty trees in this realm.
"But why can we enter this area?" Chen Yuan questioned again, he and Big Ash should belong to outsiders, so why didn't the barrier of the Boundary Sky Tree have any effect on himself and Big Ash?
Hearing Chen Yuan's question, Ying Zhao said with a smile: "You have to understand that the enchantment of the Boundary Sky Tree can spontaneously sense the evil thoughts of living beings, so that the enchantment refuses to allow living beings with evil thoughts to enter the area where they are, and when you come in, there are no evil thoughts in your heart, which is a very important reason to be able to enter here."
At the beginning, I brought you here to test your ideas through the Boundary Void Tree, and the other thing is that before you came, you were all touched by me intentionally or unintentionally, and your body was naturally contaminated with my breath, and I have lived with the Boundary Tree as a neighbor for decades, and it naturally knows my breath. ”
"The world is so big that there are no wonders!" After listening to Ying Zhao's explanation, Chen Yuan couldn't help but sigh, although he had been in the Dao Academy for half a year, through Ning Wuru and the books in the Dao Academy's library, he also learned a lot about the Nine Heavens Domain, including the information of rare birds and beasts and spiritual materials and treasures, but this was the first time he had heard of the Boundary Sky Tree that could produce an enchantment on its own, and the Boundary Sky Tree that sheltered one side was still the first time he had heard of it.
"Okay, it's not too late to sigh when you come back, I'll take you to meet the owner of the longevity fruit forest now, and after many years, I'll also go to meet this high-status old-timer again. Ying Zhao said to Chen Yuan.
Although there is the protection of the bounded empty tree, Chen Yuan still left the big ash by Lu Shu to take care of this Lu Shu, and he followed Ying Zhao to the longevity fruit forest to meet the owner of the longevity fruit forest, the oldest existence in the entire Xingchen Lake.
Following Ying Zhao to continue to march towards the interior of the Xingchen Lake Forbidden Land, along the way, Chen Yuan also saw a lot of strange beasts from the inner area, he was a human being, if he was not protected by Ying Zhao's side, the aura emitted, I am afraid that he would have been eaten by many strange beasts.
As he continued to go deeper, Chen Yuan clearly felt the changes in the surrounding environment, the moisture in the air began to thicken, and the woods gradually thinned, but the trees in it were much larger than the original in terms of height and width, which led to the fact that the rich shade was still there, and it was not reduced because of the decrease in the number of trees.
I don't know how long I walked, suddenly Ying Zhao stopped in front of an oval-shaped stone, Chen Yuan carefully looked at the stone in front of him, and found that this stone was not surprising except that it was larger than other stones and had a smoother surface, so he asked a little strangely: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, we arrived. After this stone is the longevity fruit forest, enter the fruit forest for a while, you must follow me, even if you see the ripe longevity fruit, don't pick it rashly, without the consent of the owner of the fruit forest, picking the longevity fruit without permission is punished, once the owner of the fruit forest is angry, I can't protect you, understand?" Before entering the fruit forest, Ying Zhao once again instructed Chen Yuan, obviously the owner of the longevity fruit forest made Ying Zhao very jealous, for fear that Chen Yuan would make an unauthorized move and anger the owner of the fruit forest.
"Don't worry, I won't be reckless. Chen Yuan nodded solemnly and said.
Seeing that Chen Yuan was very cautious, Ying Zhao was relieved, crossed the oval-shaped stone, and walked into the forest in front of him with Chen Yuan.
Walking into the longevity fruit forest, Chen Yuan found that this place is extraordinary, different from the ordinary forest outside, the forest here exudes a strong vitality, whether it is the trunk or the leaves are vibrant, especially the countless leaves that grow on the branches, it seems to be flashing with a slight brilliance, as if it is glazed fine porcelain, refracting layers of green under the sunlight, from tender green, new green, grass green to dark green, the layers are distinct, as if it is a rainbow composed of different degrees of green, it is very good-looking.
On some branches, there are also oval-shaped fruits, these fruits are green and white, dotted in a piece of turquoise, and there are also circles of golden lines like annual rings, which is the purpose of Chen Yuan's trip - longevity fruit.
According to the introduction of Yingzhao on the road to come, there are three stages of longevity fruit, one is immature, the fruit is indigo as a whole, the second is semi-ripe, half of the fruit turns from green to white, and the third is ripe, and the fruit completely turns white.
Unripe fruit contains highly toxic, this poison is not the poison produced by ordinary organisms and plants, this poison is produced by the ability of the fruit itself, the main role of the longevity fruit is to provide vitality for the user, repair the damaged source of life of the user.
This is the medicinal effect and ability of the ripe longevity fruit, but the immature longevity fruit is just the opposite, because it is not ripe, the life ability contained in the fruit is not saturated, so the person who takes the immature longevity fruit will absorb part of the life energy of the fruit to make up for its own shortcomings, so that the user will have a decay of vitality. Ying Zhao told Chen Yuan this, just because he didn't want Chen Yuan to pick the immature longevity fruit, causing irreparable consequences.
Generally speaking, the older the longevity fruit tree, the stronger the life energy contained in the longevity fruit, of course, the more toxic the unripe fruit contains.
If a round of longevity fruit can increase the user's life span by one year, then the unripe fruit can devour the user's life span for one year, and so on.
Walking in the forest, Chen Yuan saw many longevity fruits that had matured and completely changed their color to white, many of which contained a hundred gold patterns, but Chen Yuan remembered Yingzhao's instructions, did not pick them without authorization, and followed closely behind Yingzhao.
After a short time, Chen Yuan followed Ying Zhao to the depths of the fruit forest, and when he saw an obvious land demarcation line, Ying Zhao stopped moving forward. It secretly told Chen Yuan that after crossing that line, it was the core area of the forbidden land of Xingchen Lake, and without the existence of the core area, even a beast of Yingzhao's status was not allowed to step into the core area without permission.
Standing outside the core area, Ying Zhao began to call to himself, "Great Lord, I am your most loyal follower, and now I have come here to see your majestic figure······
With the continuous call of Yingzhao, the leaves standing in the core area began to sway with the wind, as if a great and powerful existence was slowly waking up, and in an instant, Chen Yuan's heart rose to his throat.
The wind rose and fell, and in just a few minutes, Chen Yuan felt as if he had experienced centuries. As several crisp copper bells rang, an old man in a white robe walked out of the shade of the trees in the core area, holding a silver folding fan in his hand, looking extraordinary.
"Did you call me? The old man spoke, but a kind and generous voice sounded in the ears of Chen Yuan and Ying Zhao, which made Chen Yuan not only feel more cordial, as if the owner of the voice was his own flesh and blood.
After a long time, Chen Yuan came back to his senses, and looked at the old man in front of him in shock, with just one look and a word, he couldn't help but be close and surrender, what a profound realm this requires!
Of course, Chen Yuan can see that the old man did not do it on purpose, but the realm is extremely high, it has almost reached the point of following his words, the aura and rules between heaven and earth seem to be affected by his words, a look, and unconsciously have an impact on Chen Yuan, what an unfathomable Tao!
"Ying Zhao to meet the ancestor!" Ying Zhao saw the old man, without hesitation to bow down, in front of the old man, it deeply felt that he was still a child, the old man's eyes were like an abyss, as if containing thousands of creatures and hundreds of millions of galaxies, unfathomable!
"Children of the human race, don't be afraid, old man Bai Ze, I don't know why you came here with Ying Zhao this time?" Seeing Chen Yuan standing on the spot, the old man smiled slightly and asked.
The old man's voice was like a spring breeze, so that Chen Yuan suddenly woke up from shock, looking at the old man in front of him, Chen Yuan couldn't believe it, such an old man who looked quite chivalrous, and even looked more like a human monk, turned out to be the legendary all-knowing divine beast Bai Ze!
I thought that the ancient existence in Ying Zhao's mouth would be a powerful beast with fierce gods and evil spirits, but I didn't expect that it would be a bit of an old man with fairy wind and bones, and such a gap in his heart made Chen Yuan not know what to say for a while.
