Chapter 16: The Tree Fetus
The moon is full tonight, and the moonlight is as soft as water.
The dead tree was bathed in the moonlight, and there was a faint, indescribable feeling.
Rowan circled around the dead tree a few times, and finally found a good angle, and reached out to touch the trunk of the dead tree.
The trunk of the tree is cold, and when you put your palm on it, you can feel a slight coolness coming in.
Rowan triggered the "Holy Pupil" supernatural power, dived part of his consciousness into the sea of consciousness, and kept part of his consciousness outside, carefully observing the tree in front of him.
After that, he began to run the "Smell Dao" supernatural power, and he saw the stone statue in the sea of knowledge open the book in his left hand, and the "Hearing Dao" supernatural power naturally appeared, submerged from the palm into the dead tree, and then got feedback!
At this time, he did not use the breath of holiness, so the "Hearing Dao" magic power could only explore the surface memory of the life in front of him!
But the dead trees are ignorant, they have no brains, they can't think, they don't have memories in theory, and the dead tree is already dying on the surface, and it's not far from dying.
All Rowan could get from it was some fragmented blurry images and the sound of wind and rain!
He judged that it must be the traces left by the previous night's rainstorm on the dead tree.
"So far, everything has not gone as I expected. Next, I'm going to use the Divine Virtue Qi to use my Divine Powers!"
In the middle of the thought, the book in the stone statue's hand glowed with golden light.
Rowan mobilized the spirit of sainthood and once again exerted the magic power of "Wen Dao"!
With the blessing of the aura of sainthood, Wen Dao's supernatural power showed true power, and Luo Wen's gaze became extremely deep in an instant, as if he had penetrated time and space, and saw the infinite past of this dead tree!
It was just a moment, time seemed to go backwards, the dead tree quickly turned green and taller in Luo Wen's eyes, the withered yellow leaves turned green again, the fallen green leaves flew back to the branches, the broken branches were renewed, and the whole dry tree quickly turned back into a tall and luxuriant giant tree!
It was a green tree growing on the top of a mountain.
At that time, the mountain had not yet been separated from the mountain on the other side, which stood in horns, and there was no road between the two mountains for people to pass.
This is not a cliff either, but a summit that coincides with the cliff on the other side!
The green tree that grows on the top of the mountain has a huge canopy, and countless tiny beings live on the canopy, among which there are birds, beasts, and many mysterious creatures that glow.
At night, the whole tree glows, and the light starts from the heart of the tree, spreads outward along the treetops, branches, and trunks, and finally bursts out of the tip and plunges into the void!
Then an even richer light was drawn back from the void, down the treetops, branches, and trunks, all into the heart of the tree!
The light gathered in the heart of the tree is constantly beating, like a heart, more like a giant fetus!
But the fetus didn't take shape.
In the last moment, Rowan only saw a sky-cutting giant sword suddenly slash down, not only splitting the top of the mountain in half, but also splitting the giant tree and the fetus in the giant tree in half!
The picture shattered in an instant, Luo Wen's consciousness returned to reality, and he suddenly let go of his hand, and found that the Qi of Sainthood had been consumed by a full half!
"Someone has split this mountain in half, and he has split this tree in two?"
Flashing back in memory, Rowan jerked his gaze at the tree in front of him.
Because this tree is so dry that the bark on either side has fallen off to the point that there is not much left, and in this unknown number of years, the split half has also grown new branches, so Rowan has not realized that this is only half a tree!
"So, is there another half of the tree on the cliff opposite?"
"But I often look at the other side these days, and the cliffs over there are obviously balder than here, and there are no trees at all!"
"Could it be that half of the tree over there is dead?"
Rowan carefully stroked the center of the tree, where the fetus had once been conceived, but now there was only a shallow, barely visible pit!
"What the hell is this tree?"
The picture he saw just now was too shocking, and Luo Wen couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
But after he calmed down, he had a faint feeling that maybe this tree would be the key to his escape!
Although the current ten-meter sacred area is faintly like a courtyard, with the worship of the villagers under the mountain, he can also live a good life.
But if this goes on for a long time, the secret that he can't leave this ten-meter holy realm will always be exposed, and if people find him here again, they will find that he is the king of the dead country who opened the gates of hell......
In short, if you can't get rid of this predicament for a day, you won't be able to get out of this predicament for a day!
Although the Qi of Divine Virtue can expand the Holy Realm, it is too inefficient, unless the whole world is saved and an infinite amount of Divine Qi is obtained—that is simply a fantasy.
And you may not believe it, after Rowan saved the village, his good and evil values did not increase even a little.
It's like a murderous sinner who accidentally crosses the street with an old woman, and his act of kindness is so modest that it even makes people suspect that they have ulterior motives, so that they are not recognized by others.
All in all, it's embarrassing.
But not to the point of despair.
This dead tree, the fetus in the memory of the dead tree, brought a very, very big inspiration to Rowan!
He retracted his hand and looked at the dead tree, a smile on his lips.
A fetus.
A freshman.
A new life.
A new body!
"Why didn't I think of it? I have been blowing the cold wind on the top of this cliff for so long, why didn't I think of it? This life is not enough, so why don't you just continue it? I crossed over here, and I was already possessed by the soul. Since that damn billion sins were brought about by this body, why don't you just change another body?"
Because he was too excited, Rowan couldn't help but say his thoughts.
At this time, the sage system, which had never taken the initiative since its first appearance, suddenly appeared: "Killing people and taking away is a heinous crime, because the host's good and evil value is -999999998, the sin will be aggravated, and hundreds of good and evil values will be deducted, and it will directly cross the billion mark and get a billion sins! A billion sins, the sins are monstrous, even the holy realm cannot be hidden, and they will be punished by the ten tribulations of thunder!"
Rowan was extremely surprised: "Why should I take away the house? What is the benefit of taking the house? Don't you feel disgusting to be attached to someone else's body? Actually, I'm very disgusted right now! I'm so disgusting that I can't stand it! When I think of this body having done such and such things, I can't accept it, do you understand? You definitely don't understand, you're just a system. Isn't that Mr. Auxiliary Systems?"
Sage System: "......"
