"Dad, is this the Holy Tree?" Xie Tong asked, looking up at the huge ancient tree towering into the sky.

Xie Bing nodded, he came more often. But every time you see this spectacular sight, you will be shocked.

The ancient tree in front of him can no longer be described as thick, how many people are embraced? No, it is like the wall of a small city surrounded by so thick that it can be hugged by several people.

The huge canopy of trees obscures the sky, providing only light from the countless pillars of light that fall through the gaps in the leaves. There was not even a single grass in the area around the sacred tree for dozens of miles, only the rhizomes that protruded several meters above the surface radiated and spread to all corners of the dense forest. Everywhere below it was the pilgrims from all over the Land of Trees, kneeling neatly in pillars of light, chanting words in their mouths, solemn and sacred.

Xie Tong found that the light attribute aura in his body was more active than before, as if he had been called, he woke up from all parts of his body, and spontaneously roamed in his body, with an indescribable warmth and comfort around his body.

Stepping on a rough and sturdy rhizome of the sacred tree under his feet, Xie Tong and his father walked towards the center of the sacred tree together.

The bark of the sacred tree has been beaten by wind and rain for many years, and the ravines are all over it, but it has become a path for people to climb the sacred tree.

Holding on to the trunk of the tree, walking between the bark ravines, Xie Tong climbed up to the canopy step by step. From the palm of your hand, there was a heartbeat-like fluctuation, very slow, but powerful. The sound of the knock caused the aura of light in his body to fluctuate like a tidal wave.

"Dad, does this tree have a heartbeat?" Xie Tong couldn't help but ask.

Xie Bing was stunned, he couldn't feel anything while also holding the trunk of the tree. "I think it's probably your light properties that resonate with it, and your mother used to feel it. ”

"Before, do you mean Mom can't feel it now?" Xie Tong asked.

Xie Bing was silent for a moment, and rubbed the trunk a few times with his hand. The peony has lost its light attribute, and now I can't help but feel a little sad when I think of the reason. Cai said, "I hope it's a good thing for you." ”

After climbing for half a day, Xie Tong finally reached the lowest part of the canopy. Looking down, the people on the ground were already as small as black dust. The Holy Tree Temple, where the Forest Saint King is located, is in the canopy of this sacred tree, which is also peculiar.

Under the leadership of the guards of the Holy Tree Temple, Xie Tong walked through the branches of many holy trees, the thinnest of which was more than five meters wide, and even a leaf was enough for Xie Tong to be half the size of his body.

The Temple of the Sacred Tree is located between several main branches, and is made of natural foliage and artificial construction.

Walking on the ground made up of tangled branches, Xie Tong was attracted by the several huge amber stones used for lighting in the main hall. The amber emitted a soft light, which seemed to be of the same origin as his light attribute, which was easily absorbed by his body and turned into aura and wandered through his body. The light attribute power of the body is quietly becoming stronger, although it is very small, but it is still felt.

"Little boy, meet the Holy King. Xie Bing reminded as he saluted.

Retracting his gaze, Xie Tong saluted on the throne of the main hall. Only then did he see the appearance of the Forest Saint King on the high platform of the main hall.

"Are you the child of the peony?" it was a woman, wrapped in an emerald green royal robe, with a crown of flowers on her head, and the same glowing amber embedded in the crown, making the woman who looked only thirty years old seem sacred and mysterious.

Xie Tong nodded respectfully, from the Saint King's gaze, he couldn't feel the majesty of the king, only gentleness and love. However, the white wolf who saved him the day before yesterday was crawling at the feet of the Holy King at this time, and the pet was still so powerful, and the strength of the Holy King himself was even more undoubted.

"Sure enough, he is a talent, worthy of being a child of peony. I feel that you have a sincere heart, and you don't need my guidance, and you will definitely go out of your own way. The Forest Saint King said, not sad or happy.

I don't need your guidance, is it the exercise I am asking for...... Xie Tong's brows furrowed, wanting to ask her. Peony and Xie Bing had already told the Holy King what Xie Tong had asked for when he came to the Land of Trees this time.

Saint King Meimu seemed to see through what Xie Tong was thinking, and before he could speak, he said again, "I can't help you with what you ask for." The method of light attribute cultivation can only be passed on to the Holy Maiden. This is the ancestral rule of the Land of Trees that has been handed down from ancient times, and no one can change it. ”

Xie Tong sighed secretly, when the Holy King said this, there must be no room for reversal. No matter how much he asks, it is useless, how can his own interests be compared with the secrets of a country. I didn't say anything more, only thanks.

"I won't let you come in vain, Peony's child is also our relative, I have to give you a gift. The Forest King said, summoning the white wolf and asking it to give a gift.

The white wolf arched his waist lazily and shook his head. He picked up something from under the Holy Throne and came to Xie Tong.

"Boy, you're cheap. The white wolf put this treasure in Xie Tong's hands.

It is also an amber that emits a soft light, unlike the one used for lighting in the main hall. Xie Tong felt that the light attribute aura emitted by it was several times stronger, and as soon as he absorbed it with a little luck, the surging light attribute power filled one of his air pockets.

"This is the amber produced in the heart of the sacred tree, and it gives you this thousand-year-level treasure. I think you'll probably need it. The Holy King said, "Xie Bing, tomorrow is the day when the new Holy Maiden will succeed to the throne." You go back and let Peony prepare, and after the ceremony is over, you two can go in and out of the country of trees at will. In the future, the sky will be high and the birds will fly, and you can go wherever you want. ”

"Yes. Xie Bing replied.

Xie Tong also knew about the succession of the saint. Peony has completely lost the power of light and can no longer be a saint. This time Peony came back, which was to fulfill the agreement with the Forest Saint King twenty years ago, and pass on the position of the Holy Maiden to the newly selected person.

The Holy King said again, "Xie Tong, you can also come to watch the ceremony tomorrow." Stand behind your mother and bear witness for her. ”

After thanking the Holy Queen again, Xie Tong and his father walked out of the main hall. If you don't get the exercises you want, you will inevitably lose your heart. The boat went straight to the bridge, and Xie Bing comforted. Now it's only a matter of taking one step at a time.

After the father and son left, the white wolf raised his head and asked, "Do you have any other purpose in arranging for that kid with light attributes to go to the ceremony?"

The Forest Saint King gently stroked the white wolf's hair. He smiled and said, "Leave everything to the sacred tree to judge." ”

The white wolf bowed his head thoughtfully and licked his paws.

Peony dwellings.

"What! the Holy King told you to accompany me to the succession ceremony?" said Peony.

Xie Tong was puzzled, what was so strange about this. What's wrong with a mother holding an important ceremony and being the companion of her own child.

"You have a chance!" Peony said in surprise.

"What?" "What are you saints doing to me at the succession ceremony, Xie Tong is even more strange.

"Alright, alright. Tomorrow you will know, holy tree bless. I'm going to pray, you keep me treated, and I'm not allowed to go to Xiaohai to play. Peony said excitedly, she called Brother Hai Xiaohai.

Who wants to play with him, Xie Tong is embarrassed. When he came, he had already seen Brother Hai, this guy actually successfully accosted a spirit girl, and accompanied him to find the rare spirit beast spirit grass in the country of trees, and talk about what hobbies.

"However, why are the Spirit Clan women all pointy-eared, and my mother is also from the Spirit Clan, why are their ears the same as mine?" Xie Tong asked his father.

Xie Tong pinched his chin and pretended to be profound: "You will know if you marry a wife of the Spirit Clan...... Would you like to try it?"

"Yes, let Brother Hai try it. "Xie Tong is too lazy to pay attention to him, let's cultivate.

At noon the next day, the Temple of the Holy Tree.

The top of the main hall that I came to yesterday actually gave birth to a huge round hole on its own. A pillar of light shone into the main hall through the round hole, and the surrounding area was full of sacrifices of the Holy Tree Temple, and the throne on the high platform of the main hall became three.

The entire Sacred Tree Hall was crowded with Spirit Clan people who had come to watch the ceremony, even outside the hall. There were also several times more people worshipping the sacred tree under the sacred tree, and the prayers were so loud that you could hear them standing on the canopy.

Xie Tong accompanied his mother in a secret room in the hall, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

"Mom, you're so beautiful today. Xie Tong looked at his mother and said. Today, Peony is dressed in a white gauze robe for saints, with her beautiful face and black hair draped around her waist, which is holy.

"It's a pity that it was the last time I wore it. Peony said, "Little boy, did you absorb all the amber that the Holy King gave you last night?"

Xie Tong nodded, and took out a piece of amber from his pocket, which had lost its light.

At this moment, the shouts of sacrifice came from outside.

The Beast King has arrived!

The Mushroom King has arrived!

Puff——! Xie Tong laughed, "What kind of mushroom is this, what's the matter with the Great King, aren't they all Saint Kings?"

Peony raised a finger to make Xie Tong stop laughing. Only then did he say, "The Mushroom Saint King is a relatively unusual person, and he must be called the Great King by others." He also loves power very much, and is narrow-minded. It's also a bit violent...... Forget it, try not to have too much intersection with him in the future, remember. ”

"The succession ceremony begins, please peony saint!" the voice of the sacrifice sounded. Peony stood up, let Xie Tong follow behind, and walked out of the main hall.

As soon as the door opened, the surrounding sacrifices automatically divided into two columns, allowing the peony to walk into the central pillar of light.

"A new saint, please!" the voice rose again, and a passage was split on the other side of the hall. A spirit girl who was also dressed in a white gauze robe walked slowly.

Xie Tong stood behind Peony and looked at it clearly. The girl had the same long black hair as her mother, and her star-like eyes were clear and pure. Illuminated by the pillar of light, holy and beautiful.

Woo...... Woo...... There was an inexplicable vibration from the silent hall, from the branches under his feet. No, it was the entire hall that was shaking slightly, and Xie Tong looked at the leaves in the round hole above his head that were constantly vibrating regularly and realized that it was wrong, this was the frequency emitted by the entire sacred tree. The aura of light in his body was also agitating, and why.

The pillar of light was bathed in holy light, "What's your name?" Peony asked, the saints are all named after flowers, what is the name of the new saintess?

"Rose. The girl said softly.
