Zhang Sanfeng found that this time he was holding the Evil Slashing Sword, but he did not appear like last time, completely uncontrollable, and it seemed that with the improvement of his strength, his control over the Evil Slaying Sword had improved a lot.

"Why don't you kill me? What do you want to do? The ancient city lord saw that Zhang Sanfeng had already put away the evil sword in his hand.

Zhang Sanfeng was stunned by the other party's question for a while: "Could it be that if you fail, you will be killed?" ”

"Isn't it?"

"Who told you this?" Zhang Sanfeng was very curious that a master with such skills would have such thoughts.

"My master!" The city lord of the ancient city said seriously.

Zhang Sanfeng felt that he could no longer communicate with the city lord of this ancient city: "Why did you choose to stay in this ancient city?" ”

In response to Zhang Sanfeng's question, the ancient city lord chose to remain silent.

"What kind of secrets are hidden in this ancient city?" Zhang Sanfeng continued to ask.

The city lord of the ancient city looked at Zhang Sanfeng with an indescribable look, and Zhang Sanfeng actually felt that he was hairy in his heart.

After a long time, the ancient city lord slowly spoke: "Legend has it that there was once a big tree that reached the sky in the ancient ancient city, and that big tree had incredible power, and if it was recognized, you could easily enter the immortal realm. ”

"It can't be!" Zhang Sanfeng couldn't help but say, although the king of Hades was fake, Zhang Sanfeng knew that the passage between the three realms had definitely been completely isolated.

"As I said, it's just a legend, no one has ever actually seen it." The Ancient City Lord said slowly, "But I believe this is true, there was once a person in my family who was recognized by the ancient tree. ”

"And what do you mean by the ancient tree?" Although Zhang Sanfeng didn't believe the words of the ancient city lord, he was still very curious.

"Legend has it that the ancient tree is ten thousand feet high, standing up to the sky and the earth, surrounded by colorful glow, and the legend says that the tree is the ancestor of all trees, and any plant between heaven and earth is separated from it......"

The more Zhang Sanfeng listened, the more he felt that the tree that the ancient city lord said was the world tree in his body.

"That ancient tree is called Jianmu by others, also known as the World Tree, and it is said that the entire ancient tree is a world, and if you have an ancient tree, you can become a saint!"

Sure enough, it's the World Tree! It's just that his own World Tree is too small, and it's too far away from a world.

"Why did this World Tree disappear when it is so powerful?" Zhang Sanfeng asked curiously.

"Although the World Tree is powerful, it is not invincible, you must know that in the legends of the Eternal Period, there are three thousand demon gods and the Tree of Time are as powerful." The ancient city lord said, "Legend has it that in the battle between gods and demons, the World Tree was directly shattered, and even the so-called Holy Ruins Realm was only the inner world of the World Tree, but no one in the Holy Ruins Realm knew this secret except for a few emperor-level powerhouses of the older generation. ”

"Huh?" Zhang Sanfeng was a little curious, "Why did you tell me so many things?"

"I don't understand either, I just feel like there's some connection between you and the World Tree." The ancient city lord was a little confused, "This is definitely impossible, the World Tree has long ceased to exist." ”

"This ......" Zhang Sanfeng's heart rolled up a thousand waves, Zhang Sanfeng thought for a while or decided to spy on it, "What would you do if I told you that I knew where the World Tree was?" ”

"This ......," the ancient city lord was obviously stunned, "If there really is a World Tree, then it is not impossible for me to abide by the agreement of my ancestors and serve you as the master." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Sanfeng didn't expect the other party to say this.

"Isn't that incredible?" The Lord of the Ancient City continued, "My family has actually existed since the Eternal Period, and the World Tree is the master of my clan. It is even said that the source of my clan's strength is the World Tree! ”

Zhang Sanfeng nodded thoughtfully.

"Could it be that the power of the demon god you are talking about comes from the World Tree, but hasn't the World Tree been destroyed?" Zhang Sanfeng was a little puzzled.

"The World Tree is dead, but I don't rely on his power." As he spoke, the ancient city lord took out a leaf from his arms.

"Huh...... This ......" Zhang Sanfeng took the leaf from the hands of the ancient city lord.

A strange power flowed out of the leaves in an instant, along the meridians in his hand, all the way into the dantian, and finally into the seedlings, Zhang Sanfeng clearly felt that the seedlings in his body began to tremble strongly.

"It's ......"

Zhang Sanfeng was windless, and the turquoise leaves in his hand turned into nothing in a moment.

"You, how could it be! How can anyone other than my Divine Tree clan use the power of the World Tree, who are you? The face of the ancient city lord changed suddenly.

At this moment, Zhang Sanfeng was in no mood to pay attention to the ancient city lord, because Zhang Sanfeng felt that the seedlings in his body seemed to want to break out.

In a flash, clusters of green light burst out from Zhang Sanfeng's body, these green lights seemed to contain endless vitality, and even the ancient city lords were covered, as if there were hallucinations in front of their eyes, turning into pieces of illusion and mirage.

"You really have an extraordinary relationship with the World Tree, and it seems that you are the person I am waiting for." The ancient city lord stood up, "You come with me." ”

The city lord of the ancient city guided Zhang Sanfeng into the ancient city and walked directly towards the city lord's mansion of the ancient city.

"Where are you going to take me?" Zhang Sanfeng couldn't help but ask.

"You'll find out with me." The ancient city lord continued to walk forward.

Although Zhang Sanfeng was very unhappy with the attitude of the ancient city lord, he still followed the ancient city lord in.

The city lord of the ancient city took Zhang Sanfeng to the depths of the city lord's mansion after a while, and stopped at a rockery, only to see the city lord of the ancient city move a few stones at the rockery, and the rockery instantly opened a gate.

The city lord of the ancient city jumped in, but Zhang Sanfeng stood in front of the door but did not enter immediately.

"What, are you afraid that I will harm you?" The city lord of the ancient city said half-jokingly.

"How is that possible?"

Although Zhang Sanfeng intuitively felt that the ancient city lord would not harm him, he still felt a little hairy in his heart.

But soon, curiosity overcame everything and followed the ancient city lord inside.

The passage was very dark, but it was no problem at all for earth immortal masters like Zhang Sanfeng and the ancient city lord.

The passage zigzagged and I didn't know how long it took to walk before the ancient city lord stopped, pointed to the huge tree root in front of him and said, "This is one of the roots of the original world tree in the legend." ”

"It's big!" Zhang Sanfeng looked at the tree roots in front of him who seemed to be unable to see the edge at a glance.

"Big? This is just one side root of the World Tree. ”
