Chapter 12: The Call

It is rumored that when the heavens and the earth first opened, and when there was chaos, the first creature born in the heavens and the earth was a sacred tree.

The Sacred Tree is covered by chaos and the universe, and the sky is full of stars!

The Sacred Tree drains all its energy and gives birth to these countless stars.

The stars fell off one after another and scattered in the universe, so that there was this boundless sea of stars.

And the sacred tree, which has exhausted its energy, is constantly shrinking, and in the end it can only choose to take root in one of her "children".

As the common mother of all living beings, the sacred tree is worshiped by all races, but one day it suddenly and mysteriously disappears.

............

Looking at the fruit that rolled in front of his eyes, Gu Ming was surprised to find that it was only wrapped in a layer of white skin on the outside, but it was transparent inside, and there were flashes of various colors inside, like stars in the sky, starlight shimmering.

Looking at it, Gu Ming couldn't help but think of the mythical story hidden in the depths of his memory.

He couldn't remember where he had heard the myth, he just thought it was too absurd.

How does a tree grow stars? It's a bit too big.

Therefore, Gu Ming didn't take this seriously, and quickly forgot about it.

But now that I think about it, it's very likely to be true!

"This fruit...... Could it be that a star is being conceived?"

Gu Ming immediately shook his head, feeling ridiculous about his absurd idea.

"Rustle"

The small tree not far away was windless, scattering a piece of light, surrounding all the way, and finally floating on the white fruit in Gu Ming's hand.

The white fruit becomes more crystal clear, round and full under the shroud of brilliance.

"This ...... Can I eat this fruit?"

For some reason, the white fruit at this moment made his index finger move and his saliva flowed.

There is a voice inside that keeps shouting, "Eat it! Eat it!"

And Xiao Shu seemed to hear his heart, and once again swayed without wind, as if nodding, responding to Gu Ming's inner thoughts.

"Anyway, it's someone who has died once, no matter whether this fruit is poisonous or not, or whether I will overtake it after eating it, explode and die, eat it first!"

Thinking of this, Gu Ming took a bite of the white fruit.

There was a crisp "click".

Just taking a bite, before he had time to taste the sweetness of the fruit, an extremely majestic pure energy was like a flood that burst the embankment, quickly pouring into Gu Ming's body and flowing to his limbs.

His whole body did not feel any discomfort from this huge energy, on the contrary, he was still cheering for its arrival.

This energy continued to moisten his body, making Gu Ming feel extremely comfortable, and he hurriedly took a second bite, a third bite......

In a few moments, the little white fruit was devoured by him!

The fruit had no seeds, and it melted in his mouth, turning into an extremely pure energy, constantly washing the meridians around him.

Under the irrigation of this majestic but not turbulent energy, the pores on Gu Ming's body opened one after another, removing the impurities and dirt in his body one after another.

After a while, Gu Ming became a clay figure, but now he had no time to feel all this, he was experiencing many changes in his body.

The small tree on the side witnessed Gu Ming eating the white fruit and constantly swaying its branches, as if he was happy for this scene.

Countless stars in the surrounding darkness twinkled at the same time, cheering and cheering for the arrival of this moment!

The little tree sprinkled another piece of light and landed on Gu Ming's body, stroking away the dirt on his body, revealing the smoother and fairer skin inside him.

Gu Ming felt all this quietly, only feeling that he was fluttering at the moment, which was a special feeling that he had never experienced.

I don't know how long it took, Gu Ming's majestic energy began to dissipate, and finally returned to nothingness.

When he opened his eyes, there was a faint flow of stars in his black and white eyes, which was extremely extraordinary.

If Gu Ming appeared in front of Gu Nian'er's eyes at this moment, the latter would definitely be surprised.

Without him, it's just because the changes in Gu Ming at this moment are too huge.

His skin was very fair, and his whole person became much more handsome. Under the irrigation of essence energy, his temperament has also become quite extraordinary, majestic and heroic, and beyond the world.

Suddenly, Gu Ming closed his eyes again, and he felt that there were spiritual powers from the outside world surging towards him.

A flash of realization flashed through his heart, and he activated the nameless exercises in his mind.

He carefully guided these heaven and earth spiritual qi to converge into his body, slowly circulating in the meridians of Zhou Tian, constantly washing the meridians.

These heaven and earth auras are not like the essence energy in the white fruit, which will nourish his body irresistibly, and it is more like a wild horse, which will not accept his restraint so easily.

Feeling the pain coming from the meridians, Gu Ming couldn't help frowning, but he could hold on to this level of pain.

He constantly urged these auras to circulate them in his body, and although the process was very difficult, the harvest was not small.

Where the aura washed through, the meridians became wider and more stable.

Just as Gu Ming was constantly running the nameless exercises, the aura of the outside world was like a bee that had found flowers, constantly merging into this sea of spiritual consciousness and surging towards Gu Ming.

"It's strange, I'm obviously a person abandoned by heaven and don't have any talent for cultivation, but why can I absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and even if I don't take the initiative to absorb it, these aura will come to me on my own?"

Strange is strange, now is not the time to be curious, Gu Ming pressed the doubts in his heart, and constantly guided these aura, washing his meridians.

As his meridians were constantly widened, the flow of spiritual qi became smoother, and his strength was constantly improving.

In the end, the constantly wandering aura was tamed by him, completely obeying his command, flowing all the way, and finally converging in his dantian.

"Boom!"

Gu Ming felt a sound in his body, as if he had opened some valve, and a warm current flowed through his body, making him feel very comfortable.

"One layer of Qi training!"

Gu Ming couldn't believe it, when Liu Mei'er said that he was an abandoned person, he felt as if the world had abandoned him, leaving him in boundless darkness.

There is no endless road, I didn't expect him to embark on the road of cultivation so soon.

"It's true that I'm a person forsaken by God, but why can I practice nameless exercises?"

"It must be the white fruit!"

A hint of realization flashed in Gu Ming's heart.

Thinking like this, a tumbling tiredness suddenly hit Gu Ming's mind.

Within one day, after experiencing ups and downs, and hovering between life and death several times, Gu Ming felt that his previous sixteen years of life were not as exciting as today.

After going through so much, Gu Ming finally couldn't resist the tiredness and fell asleep groggily.

............

In the depths of the boundless sea of stars, there is a beautiful star, the land on this planet is incomparably vast, and the products are abundant, whether it is the treasure of heaven and earth, or the concentration of spiritual energy, it is better than the Great Yasukuni.

Somewhere in this star, there grows a towering ancient tree, which towers into the sky and has a majesty that is difficult to describe in words.

It's just a pity that this ancient tree has no leaves, and its shrunken branches sway weakly in the wind, as if its vitality will be cut off from here.

What's even more infuriating is that for such a giant tree that is about to wither, there are countless tentacles inserted into her body to rob her of nutrients.

The driering trunk of the tree is powerless to complain about all this......

Inside the ancient tree, an extremely beautiful, yet sickly woman sighed.

Suddenly, her cloudy eyes lit up, and her eyes were full of excitement.

"My child...... You're finally back......"
