Chapter Twenty-Six: The Ancient Trees of the Rift Valley and the Strange Energy

The whistling air currents in his face made him barely able to open his eyes.

"Is it trying to fall to its death?"

His body couldn't stop sinking, and his heart couldn't stop sinking with it.

I don't know how long it took, he felt his body suddenly, the momentum of the fall finally stopped, and then he felt his waist loosen, and the purple vine seemed to have let go of him.

Jiang Ping opened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him, and the shocking situation made his whole person like a wood carving clay sculpture, and he didn't react for a long time.

He was now on a huge rock at the bottom of the rift, surrounded by strange rocks and ancient trees, and across from him, a huge ancient tree was even more eye-catching.

The ancient tree was dark purple in color, and did not have any branches or leaves, but only countless long vines branched out from its trunk, extending into the distance that could not be seen. And all of these vines are purple.

This ancient tree stands quietly in the rift valley, the simple and vigorous mottled body is engraved with the traces of time, and the indescribable ancient atmosphere of the wilderness is blowing in the face, which makes people can't help but be in awe.

"Friend, I took the liberty of inviting you here, and I hope you don't mind."

Just as Jiang Ping was staring at the huge ancient tree in front of him in a daze, a voice suddenly sounded in his head.

This voice came suddenly, which startled Jiang Ping, and he turned his eyes to look around, but he didn't see the slightest figure, all he saw in front of him was countless dangerous rocks and strange stones, ancient trees and dead vines.

After that, his eyes looked at the ancient tree in front of him again, and a shocking thought appeared in his heart: "Could it be that the one who talked to me just now is this ancient tree?" ”

"Yes, I'm talking to you." The voice rang out again.

Jiang Ping looked at the ancient tree in front of him in shock, this ancient tree actually had such a high level of intelligence, and it could also speak, all of this was beyond the scope of his cognition.

"You, who the hell are you, aren't you a tree, how can you talk to me?" Jiang Ping's face was full of incredulity, and he asked with food.

The voice in my head sounded again: "This is the language of life." You'll probably get the idea later. As long as the life in the body can reach a certain height, you can talk to any life like this. ”

The language of life? Life energy?

Jiang Ping only felt that the other party's words were unfathomable, and it was difficult to understand for a while.

"So, then, what do you mean by bringing me here?" When he asked this sentence, Jiang Ping had a little apprehension in his heart.

The ancient tree in front of him was a complete mystery to him, but he knew very well in his heart that the other party contained a powerful and incomparable vitality force, and he was like an ant in front of it.

The ancient tree was silent for a moment, and just as Jiang Ping was becoming more and more worried in his heart, the voice sounded again: "Friend, I can't hide it, I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ping couldn't help but be stunned, and then he felt a sense of absurdity. Want to ask yourself a favor? The other party is a creature with huge and strong power, and in front of it, he is like an ant, how to help it, isn't it a joke?

As if he had guessed what Jiang Ping was thinking, Gu Shu's voice sounded again: "Friend, I'm not joking with you, I really need your help." ”

Speaking of this, it was silent for a moment, and then sighed in a somewhat sad voice: "I can't hide it, my clan has reached the time of annihilation......

Jiang Ping was taken aback and said, "How can this be?" Who else on this planet could hurt you? ”

The ancient tree's sad voice said, "It's the sewing of the underground." Now that a terrible fission has erupted in the depths of the earth, countless hot magma is accumulating, tumbling and surging upwards, and although I am trying my best to suppress it, it is gradually becoming impossible to suppress it, and before long, the earth will break through the earth, flood everything in this rift, and turn this place into an ocean. ”…,

When Jiang Ping heard this, he was horrified in his heart, and he was very sympathetic to the other party's situation. Although the other party is an extremely powerful creature, in front of the cosmic celestial power, he is just a lamb to be slaughtered, and when the catastrophe comes, he is helpless.

"So, what do you want me to do?" After being silent for a while, Jiang Ping asked softly.

The ancient tree's sad voice said, "Although my clan is about to be wiped out, I am not reconciled. As long as there is still the seed of life, our race will surely prosper again. ”

After a pause, it continued: "Friend, I want to entrust you with the seed of life of my clan, and ask you to replant it on a distant planet at the appropriate time to continue the bloodline of my clan. I wonder if you will be able to grant me this request? ”

Jiang Ping listened, smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, can I not agree, if I don't agree, can you let me go?

"Of course I can promise you. But I can't protect myself now, and it's still unknown whether I can survive, but I'm afraid that I will fail your trust. Jiang Ping said helplessly.

Gu Shu said in a soft voice, "As long as you agree." Rest assured, you'll get out of here safely. ”

Jiang Ping knew that the other party would not say anything, since he said that he could leave safely, then there must be a means. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and said, "Okay, I agree to your request." ”

Gu Shu's voice revealed a bit of relieved relief and joy, and said, "Friend, thank you, I know that you won't refuse." ”

Jiang Ping's heart moved, and he suddenly asked, "Why did you find me?" ”

The ancient tree said in a soft voice, "Because I saw you risking your life to save your companions. If you can do this, then you will surely lend a helping hand to our people's danger. Moreover, I can feel your kindness to my people from your life field. ”

Jiang Ping was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood a little, what the other party said should be that the blue vines were like soldiers who looked at death as if they were at home, and when they went forward to block the invasion of outsiders like themselves, he had respect and pity for these blue vines.

He had to admit that the ancient tree in front of him was a creature with high intelligence, and it was indeed difficult for him to refuse the most powerful request of a race that was on the verge of extinction.

He suddenly remembered something, and asked, "I don't know what happened to my companion, but you didn't do anything to her, did you?" ”

Gu Shu said: "Friend, don't worry, my junior has sent that companion of yours out of the jungle safely. ”

After knowing that Catherine had nothing to do, Jiang Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

The voice of the ancient tree continued: "Alright, time is running out, friend, I will deliver the seed of life of my clan to you now, and I hope you will keep your promise and find a new home for it." ”

After this voice, the body of the ancient tree began to tremble slightly, and gradually saw a crack in the mottled tree, and a thing with a light purple light spit out from the heart of the tree, and flew directly in front of Jiang Ping, who was grabbed by Jiang Ping and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it.

This is an egg-shaped plant seed the size of a pigeon's egg, wrapped in a hard shell on the outside, faintly flashing with a lilac light, held in the palm of his hand, Jiang Ping can feel that this seed contains a huge vitality.

This is the seed of life of the ancient tree, their vine race!

Jiang Ping solemnly put away this seed of life, and said with an extremely solemn expression: "Senior Guteng, please rest assured, I will definitely follow your requirements, find a suitable planet at the right time, and plant this seed of life, so that your race can remultiply and prosper in the universe!" ”

"Xie Lu Xie, I'm sure you will be able to do it." The old voice of the ancient tree came.

Jiang Ping looked up, and at this glance, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and exclaimed: "Senior Guteng, you, what's wrong with you!" ”…,

I saw that after the ancient tree spit out the seeds of life, it seemed to age a lot all of a sudden, the bark on the surface cracked and bloomed violently, the purple vines on the trunk began to wither one after another, and the pale green water droplets kept dripping from the tree, as if an old man was crying.

The water droplets on the tree dripped faster and faster, and at the end of the day, as if in the next storm, the pale green rain poured down, and soon formed a pool under the tree.

The body of the ancient tree is melting rapidly, as if the ice and snow are melting. At the end of the day, the entire tree dissolved and disappeared, leaving only a clear pool on the ground.

As if inspired by some mysterious power, Jiang Ping couldn't help jumping down and jumping into this Wang Qingtan.

In the pale green pool water, there are streams of strange energy, which penetrates the barrier of the spacesuit and easily enters Jiang Ping's body, like a naughty child, flowing around in his body, flowing endlessly, and gradually gathering together after the most, constantly circulating in Jiang Ping's dantian, condensing, a small biological seed, and finally appeared in Jiang Ping's dantian qi sea.

Jiang Ping was startled, he didn't know what kind of changes had happened in his body, but his thoughts could feel and "see" this new seed in his body.

This is a very strange feeling, he feels the vigorous vitality of this seed, and at the same time, he feels that he is full of vitality at this moment.

The strange energy in the pond water is huge, and it is only one in a hundred million absorbed by Jiang Ping, but it is a great benefit for Jiang Ping, these are the essence of the energy of the ancient tree for many thousands of years, and a "seed of life" was born in his body, and ordinary creatures need to go through thousands of years of evolution to give birth to such a seed of life.

But now this seed is just a pure energy body, and I don't know how many thousands of years of gestation and growth it will take before it can take root, germinate, grow, flower, and bear fruit, until the seed that truly gives birth to life grows after the most lucrative time.

"When the bioenergy system is recharged, the energy can sustain the normal operation of the bioenergy system for five days......"

A cold mechanical voice suddenly rang out, it was the voice of the master of the spacesuit.

Jiang Ping was stunned when he heard this, he clearly knew that there was not much bioenergy left in his spacesuit, and he didn't have a bioenergy battery to charge it, but he didn't expect that at this time, the bioenergy system would automatically be full of energy!

Jiang Ping was surprised and delighted. Maybe the strange energy of the ancient tree in the pond is a kind of biological energy, and he has a faint realization in his heart.
