Chapter 158: Crisis
After the five saint-level powerhouses left, the Tree of Life said, "Little one, don't you wonder what I want to see you? ”
"My help?" Hearing this, Gu Feicang was stunned, looked at the Tree of Life in front of him in disbelief, pointed to himself and said: "Respected Tree of Life, you are not mistaken, you are the mother tree of the elf clan, the legendary demigod-level existence, and I am just a small human being, and my strength is only level five, how can I help you, you are wrong." “
"No, I'm not wrong, I do need your help. The Tree of Life said, "Do you know why I'm called a demigod?"
"Well, because you are the first plant planted by the goddess of nature, and you are also the mother tree of all plants in the world of Afa, containing a trace of the divinity of the goddess of nature, so your strength surpasses the saint-level powerhouse, but you have not really ignited the divine fire to become an eternal and immortal god, so you are called a demigod-level. Gu Feicang honestly said what he knew.
"Yes, as you said. "Because I am not a god who is immortal in the night, and even the divinity in me comes from the great goddess of nature, so although I have power beyond all living beings in the world of Afar, I am still not a god, I am still a plant that will grow old and die." “
"I said, death is the power of the great god of death, only the gods can be free from the power of death, other living beings, even if they are as strong as me, they still can't resist the power of death, I don't know how many years I have existed in this world, my life, even if it seems to you as long as eternity, has gradually come to an end. “
Speaking, the light above the tree of life was once again, and I saw that the original lush tree of life was showing the appearance of withering at this moment, and on the trunk, countless leaves withered and fell, and the original green leaves were also yellowing at the moment, and even on the trunk, there was a trace of aging.
"This, what is this?" Seeing this scene, Gu Feicang's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he pointed to the Tree of Life and was speechless.
"That's right, this is what I look like now, all along, in order not to worry Elise and the others, I have used my power to hide my true state, in fact, my lifespan has begun to decline, my life has gradually come to an end, my strength is also dissipating little by little, the seal of the land of eternal night, the reason why it is so easy to break, to a certain extent, is also because my strength has declined, resulting in the loss of balance of natural forces. “
Hearing this, Gu Feicang was stunned, all along, he thought that it was because of himself that he broke the seal of the Land of Eternal Night, but now that it sounds, it seems that there is another reason?
"Actually, death is not terrible, I have existed for too long, so long that I have forgotten myself, although I can't move, and I don't have real limbs and facial features, but most of the things that happen in this world, I can feel it, and even, I am called a demigod, and I can see some situations in the future through the trace of divinity in my body, through the timeline, compared to your other creatures, I can say that I have experienced everything, so I am not afraid of death. “
"However, the elves were conceived by me, and the treants were also born because of my power, once I really die, the entire elves and treants will have no future, they will gradually disappear in the whole world, therefore, I can't just die, at least, I can't die before this problem is solved. “
"So, for the future of the elves, I keep shuttling through the timeline, hoping to find out the possibility of saving the elves and saving the tree people, although, I have a trace of divinity of the goddess of nature, but this divinity is not mine after all, in the continuous shuttle timeline, this trace of divinity is also constantly eroded, and now, it is almost unbearable. “
"Once this divinity completely collapses, I will also be devastated, and I will no longer be able to peek into the future in the timeline, but fortunately, at this time, I saw your arrival. “
"You mean, you see my future?" For the future, anyone wants to peek into the future, Gu Feicang is naturally no exception, and hurriedly said when he heard this.
"No, no, I'm not a real being, I can't peep into the timeline as much as I want, what's more, even if it's a god, it's impossible to peek into the timeline at will, I don't see your future, in fact, when I peek in the timeline, I find that I can't feel your future at all, which means that either, your future power has surpassed me and I can't peep, otherwise, among the gods, someone has used power to stop my peeping. “
"Either way, it means that your future must be limitless, so if there is anyone else in this world who can possibly save the future of the elves, I think it may be only you, therefore, when you enter the Emerald Forest, I will ask you to come to see me. ”
Hearing this, Gu Feicang was disappointed and relieved at the same time, although it was a pity not to know his future, but if his future was really peeped at random, it would be a terrible thing, after all, he still had a lot of secrets on his body.
"But how can we continue the elves? I can't let you come back from the dead, didn't you also say that death is the power of the great god of death, even if I ignite the divine fire one day and become a god, I'm afraid there is no way to bring you back from the dead. Gu Feicang asked.
"Of course I know this, but if one day you really light the divine fire and become a god, although you can't bring me back from the dead, you can inject divine power into my natural crystal, give it a hint of divinity, and allow him to grow into a new tree of life, so that the elves and the tree people can continue. ”
"Or, if there is another way for the gods to let the elves and the treants multiply, that's beyond my reach, so I don't know what to do?" said the Tree of Life.
"However, what if I can't ignite the divine fire and become a god?or if I have become a god too far away, and you are already dead at that time, and the elven clan has no future, what should I do?" Gu Feicang asked.
