"We still retain the thinking and consciousness we had when we were born as human beings, but our bodies are rooted in it, and we become motionless plants, and we can't even commit suicide, can you understand this pain?"

Xu Fu's words were like going deep into Xiao Ling's soul, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Although he couldn't pay attention to this pain, he shuddered just thinking about it.

Xu Fu and the 3,000 boys and girls he led have all turned into plants here, but they still retain their consciousness as human beings, and they have lived here for 2,000 years.

"Immortality...... Like a curse...... Such an immortality, not a curse is what? Xiao Ling muttered to himself, suddenly thought of something, and said: "At that time in Penglai Mountain, the words of immortality like a curse had already been left in the bamboo slips you left, and you already knew such a result at that time?" Then why did you enter this third mountain? What kind of power has brought you to this terrible immortality? ”

Xu Fu smiled bitterly: "When we entered Penglai Mountain, we were already involuntarily and began to transform, and we only had a period of time every day to be able to control our bodies...... And it all came from that black ball. ”

"Black balls?" Xiao Ling's heart was shocked, and he immediately thought of the Pisces jade pendant he saw under the Luobu Desert, and the black iron ball he saw in the depths of Kunlun Snow Mountain.

"Yes, a black giant ball, which is said to come from the upper world outside the sky, is a divine object that fell from the world of the gods, which can make people immortal, but no one thought that the result of this so-called immortality is so terrifying."

"So, this is not a divine object at all, this should be a cursed monster, even if there is really a god in the upper world, it is also a group of evil gods, a group of vicious gods......" Xu Fu roared, his face slightly twisted, and his whole body trembled.

Xiao Ling was silent, he heard the upper world again, before the expedition departed, Zhou Kesheng mentioned that the organization behind him suspected that there was a real breeder behind the human world.

Then to the dragon palace that collapsed and was soaked in the seawater, a blood-red giant eye appeared in it, and everyone couldn't understand what kind of creature it was, but Wang Lei thought that it was a building that fell from the upper world, and what existed there was a real dragon's eye, and this ruin was the heart that connected the upper world and their world, although the dragon stretched its eyes here, but the real body should still be in the upper world.

Now, Xu Fu in front of him also mentioned the upper world, thinking that the black iron ball fell from the upper world to this world.

"If what Xu Fu said is true, could it be that the meteor discovered by the people of the Yu Dynasty fell to the ground, and this meteor really fell from the so-called outer upper world to the earth? The black iron ball under the Rob Desert has the function of replicating creatures, and the black iron ball under the Kunlun Snow Mountain has the ability to make wishes come true, and there is also a black iron ball in this ruin, which can make people gain the ability to live forever? It's just that this immortality is really terrifying, it actually transforms a human being into a plant, sacrificing the ability to be a human being, and becomes a plant that can exist for a long time. ”

Xiao Ling showed a hint of bitterness on his face, compared with humans, the years that some trees can survive are indeed beyond imagination, and it is not uncommon for trees to live for thousands of years.

It's just that in order to live for thousands of years and become a motionless plant, who would want to?

The price of immortality is too great.

"You have become trees, you have been trapped like this for thousands of years, and now you want to be liberated, so how do you want me to help you? Do you want me to help you find the black ball? Turning you from a tree into a human again? ”

"No......" Among the giant trees in front of him, Xu Fu shook his head and said, "The ability of this black ball is irreversible, it is impossible to turn us into trees again, we want to be liberated, we want you to kill us." ”

"Kill you?" Xiao Ling was slightly stunned, thinking that there must be thousands of towering giant trees that have been turned into by humans here, and it is not easy to cut them down one by one, unless he finds a way to completely burn this forest with a fire, it should not be too difficult to think about it.

Xu Fuxiang saw Xiao Ling's thoughts, and said: "It's not that you want to find a way to destroy these trees, that won't allow us to truly liberate, because what we are really imprisoned is the soul, even if you destroy the trees, it will only destroy our bodies, and our souls are still controlled by the black ball, and we will never be able to live beyond life." ”

Xiao Ling said, "Then how can I help you?" ”

Xu Fudao: "Find the black ball and sink it into the ruins, this ruins is a bottomless valley, as long as the black ball sinks into it, it will be swallowed by the ruins, in that way, we will get out of the area controlled by its ability, lose the maintenance of this black ball's ability, we who have lived for more than two thousand years, will collapse and die in an instant, so that we can get real rest." ”

"I see." Xiao Ling nodded and said, "It's just that where are we going to find the black ball, and where is the bottomless valley you said about returning to the ruins?" ”

"The black ball is in the ruins, where I am now, is the entrance to the ruins, we found the entrance to the ruins, but unfortunately the black ball turned into a big tree, blocking the entrance, so that the ruins will never appear in the world again."

Xu Fudao: "You close your eyes and slowly feel my consciousness with your heart, our current consciousness is connected, through me, you will see everything." ”

When Xiao Ling heard this, he closed his eyes and gathered his mind, and soon, he suddenly found that the surroundings were bright, and he seemed to turn into a giant tree, followed by countless consciousnesses in one, Xu Fu, the three thousand boys and girls, and the consciousness of thousands of people all converged to form a huge and incomparable life form, changing into a huge consciousness.

These thousands of trees seem to have become Xiao Ling's body, and the life experience at this moment is extraordinary.

It was as if he had "seen" the whole mountain.

The world in his eyes came alive completely.

Each tree is like one of his tentacles, through which he can "see" everywhere in detail.

He saw a towering tree, densely clustered around the top of the mountain, and in the center of the top of the mountain there was a giant tree, this tree was bigger than all the trees, more than a hundred meters high, and the thickest part of the tree pole was more than fifteen meters, Xiao Ling instantly understood that this tree was Xu Fu.

The bottom of this giant tree was hollow, and countless roots extended downward, and along the roots of this tree, he saw that under the big tree, there was an unfathomable dark cavern, and he could not see anything further down.
