The illusory figure of the immortal old man floated in mid-air, looked at Shi Tian with a smile, and asked lightly, "How do you know that I have a back hand?" ”

"Because the rune you gave me is just a wood spirit barrier, as for giving me a rune specifically?" Shi Tian replied lightly.

"You're smart!" The immortal old man said with a smile, looking at Shi Tian with a little more approval.

"Thanks for the compliment, I wonder what you plan to do with this wooden scepter?" Shi Tian asked.

"I'd like to hear your opinion!" The immortal old man said in amazement.

"My opinion shouldn't be of much use! To put it mildly, you're just an idea, and the reason why you can subdue the Wooden Scepter is because of that rune! I think your deity must have planned everything a long time ago! Shi Tian said lightly.

"You're wrong, although I'm a thought, I have an independent consciousness, and although my power does come from that rune, I can decide what to do with the Wood Scepter according to my own will." The immortal old man said lightly.

"That's it! Will you be able to erase this artifact and leave the Wooden Scepter behind? After all, this is an ancient artifact, and it is not good to destroy it completely. Shi Tian said with a smile.

"Very good idea, but the reason why the best ancient artifact is the best ancient artifact is because they have a spirit, if it destroys the spirit of the wooden scepter, then it is not a superb ancient artifact, are you sure you want to do this?" The undead old man asked.

"This ...... Don't tease me, old man, you can do it yourself! I'm sure you won't fool me, the soon-to-be little one of your apprentices. Shi Tian said with a smile.

"Haha! It turns out that you also have times when you are deflated. The undead old man said with a laugh.

"Hey, hey!" Shi Tian smiled and did not speak.

Seeing this, the immortal old man stretched out his finger and pointed at the ancient tree, and the resentful voice of the Wood Scepter suddenly sounded: "Old fellow, you are not dead yet. ”

"Vicissitudes of life, I can't imagine that after so many years, you have become like this." The immortal old man shook his head and said with regret.

"Humph! This is all forced by you, I have followed you for so many years, but you threw me in the wood spirit array, and used my energy to transform this broken place, forget it, you even set up another formation, extract my strength, and make a wedding dress for your inheritor, you say, are you right about me? The Wood Scepter said with an almost roar.

"Alas! You still haven't been able to understand my painstaking efforts! When I left you behind, your strength also reached the peak of the ninth order, although I was extracting your energy for my inheritor, but it was also to let you comprehend the true meaning of wood, but unfortunately, you did this kind of thing, it really disappointed me. The immortal old man said, and his illusory face also showed a bit of pain.

"What painstaking work? If you are really good for me, it would be nice to give me your years of insight, why bother. The Wood Scepter growled.

Shi Tian watched this scene quietly, but the Phantom Emperor suddenly said from his mind: "So that's the case, it's no wonder that the old man has to die to set up such a place, he is really well-intentioned!" ”

"What do you mean?" Shi Tian asked puzzledly, the words of the immortal old man just now made him confused, but at this moment, the Phantom Emperor actually understood, of course Shi Tian had to understand it well.

"The ninth order is the limit that all lives can reach, but it is not the end, as long as you can perceive the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, you can reach a higher realm, the immortal old man uses this means to extract our strength, in fact, it is to let us comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in adversity, but unfortunately, we have always misunderstood him!" The Phantom Emperor sighed.

Shi Tian didn't speak, just nodded, these were still too far away from him, a little zombie who was only a fifth order.

And at this moment, the immortal old man also spoke: "Although you have true wisdom, you have been blinded by anger and resentment, and since you are obsessed, I can only set things right." ”

The immortal old man said, raised his finger again, and pointed at the ancient tree, the dense inscription on the ancient tree immediately shone brightly, and the painful wail of the wooden scepter also sounded from the ancient tree: "Ah! You don't have to die, old fellow. ”

"It's really unrepentant!" The immortal old man was insulted by him repeatedly, and he also became angry, and with another finger, a blue light rushed from his fingertips and landed on the ancient tree, and the screams of the wooden scepter suddenly stopped abruptly.

After about two or three minutes, the turquoise light slowly dissipated, revealing the thick ancient tree inside.

The immortal old man waved his hand, and the entire ancient tree turned into a little green light and scattered, revealing a scepter more than two meters long, with a whole body of turquoise and a blue bead inlaid on the top.

"Go get it!" The immortal old man said lightly, a little tired in his tone.

When the words fell, Shi Tian suddenly found that he could move, and he didn't hesitate at the moment, he walked to the wooden scepter and held it in his hand.

The wooden scepter started, and Shi Tian immediately found out that something was wrong, in the wooden scepter, there was no longer any spirituality, it was completely a dead thing, to be precise, now it was no longer the best ancient artifact, and it was his method that the immortal old man used, erasing the instrument spirit.

Shi Tian took the wooden scepter, came to the immortal old man, held the wooden scepter with both hands, and handed it to him, thanks to Shi Tian's height of more than four meters, otherwise he really couldn't hand it over.

However, the immortal old man did not answer, but said: "In the future, it will be yours, you have passed all the tests, and you will be my inheritor." ”

"Thank you, teacher!" When Shi Tian heard this, he said with a happy face.

"Hmmm! This is just one of those gifts, there are two more gifts for you! The undead old man said again.

"And two gifts? Let me think about it, this is one of them! Shi Tian pointed to the diamond-shaped crystal in mid-air and said.

"That's right, I will pour the energy in this into your body, of course, you can't absorb it all, but it can make it easier for you to advance in the future, and the energy in this should be enough for you to reach the ninth order flat." The immortal old man said lightly.

"Thank you, teacher!" Shi Tian said this on his lips, but his heart was dripping blood, and he could reach the energy of the ninth order! It's going to be used to repair the system in a while, and it's a bit reluctant!

However, the immortal old man didn't know what he was thinking, and when he raised his hand, the diamond-shaped crystal in mid-air immediately shone brightly, and a pillar of turquoise light shot out from it, enveloping Shi Tian, and before he arrived, Shi Tian could feel the terrifying energy contained in it.

At the same time, the immortal old man also shouted to Shi Tian: "Concentrate your spirit, work hard to absorb, how much can you absorb." ”
