Chapter Ninety-Five: The Tree of the Immortals
"Swallowing Mist, do you know what I came to the Sea Beast King Valley for this time, you should know, you have been with me for a long time. Sirom turned his head to look at Swallow Fog beside him, who was staring at the towering boulder in the distance, on the sand in front of it. A small tree swayed.
"You want your soul back and eternal life and the ability to remain what you are now. Swallowing Mist said lightly, Sirom laughed after hearing this, he patted Swallowing Mist on the shoulder vigorously, his strength was very strong, but Swallowing Mist seemed to be unmoved.
"Or do you know me, that eleven ship fool thought I was going to find the Shark King, but didn't think why I drove the ship in, a bunch of idiots, Fog Swallower, you know my purpose, so you know how I can achieve my goal?" asked Sirome, although he saw his method from the fog swallowing sight, but he wanted to hear what this man had to say.
"Report to my king, the captain of the sixth ship, Mo Lan, has died, and the murderer jumped into the sea and fled, please give my king's order. A pirate rushed in and said, and instead of looking away, Swallowing Mist said, "Tree of Immortality!"
"If a useless person dies, come and report to me, let Bright go and command the sixth ship first, you can step down. After Sirom finished speaking, he waited until the pirate retreated, then turned to look at the little tree with the mist-swallowing gaze, and after a moment he turned his head to look away and said, "You still know me." β
At the same time, Naki dragged the chief to the bank of the river full of sand, the chief looked very unoptimistic, his face was pale, and his mouth began to bleed, although Naki had dealt with such an injury, but it was under the conditions, at this time she didn't know what to do, and what Naki didn't understand was that it was clear that the chief was only hit by an arrow in the chest, and Naki didn't move the arrow, but the chieftain's face became more and more pale, and her eyes were also in a half-closed state.
"Hey, wake up, don't sleep, damn pirate!" Naki said and patted Chieftain lightly on the cheek, she didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of accidentally killing Chieftain.
"Please, don't be so strong, it's painful, damn it, cough, Molan, this bastard used a poisoned arrow, but fortunately it hit me, let me see, help me up." She said with a faint breath, but Naki was still very happy, and she quickly helped her sit up, and she looked around slightly.
"Okay, let me down, behind you, that particularly ugly flower, picked, there is a grass on your left, the one that looks like a long sword, and the ...... over there" Under the guidance of the chief, Naki collected six different plants, originally wanted to mash them, but found that there was not even a complete stone here, so she had no choice but to chew it herself and then feed it to the chieftain.
After a while, Chief's face was really much better, and as soon as the person got better, his mouth began to damage Naki again, saying that if he could go back alive, he would tell her friends about it, so angry that Naki almost slapped him to death, but seeing the arrow on this person's chest, Naki couldn't help but turn her face away, just now Chieftain asked her to pick those plants, she also recognized, but they were all things to ease the injury, and they could not cure the poison on Chieftain's body, that is, he would still die.
"What are you doing, big beauty, are you crying for me, oh I'm so moved, it's the first time a girl has cried for me, hahaha......" Chief Yin laughed after speaking, but after laughing a few times, he fell silent again, as if he had brought back some memories from before.
"There's no way I'm going to cry for you, I'm just wondering why there are so many herbs growing here on this island, when there are almost no flowers and trees?" Naki turned her head and looked at the herbs with a little red eyes.
"Do you want to know, let me tell you, I don't know if you have heard the story of the Tree of Immortality, legend has it that there were many monsters in the Second Age, and they seemed to be dissatisfied with what the creatures did to them, so they united to take revenge and began to slaughter the living beings, both young and old, the god of nature soon knew about it, and it divided the monsters into two parts, one part was sent to the vicinity of the Valley of the Beast King in the sea, and the other part was sent to the Beast Forest, after being separated, the creatures began to take revenge, they divided into two teams to crusade against those monsters, and those who went to the Beast Forest were silent, but the people who came to the Valley of the Beast King in the sea found a huge treeγ As she spoke, she reached out to dig through the sand beneath a herb, and Naki noticed that the roots were deep.
They saw that a sea beast licked the sap from the tree, and the wound on its body miraculously recovered, so they went to collect the sap of the tree and tried to heal their wounds, but they died because of it, but the creatures did not give up, they came to the Valley of the Beastmaster again, this time they did not attack the sea beasts, but made all kinds of attempts, until they found that the sap of the immortal tree and the dew of the morning sun can make people immortal, so the greed of the creatures appeared, and they began to delusionally take away the tree, but how could the monsters agree, this is a divine object that can heal them, and it is also a favor given to them by the god of nature, they don't allow the creatures to steal the Tree of the Immortals. β
"The anger of the monsters has reached the strongest in history, they have slaughtered almost all the creatures close to the sea beast king island, but where will the creatures give up, the creatures will only gather to deal with these monsters that are regarded as food by people, and grab the sacred tree, although the monsters hate the creatures, but they are also their own factions, so they have not defeated the creatures, but their ferocity has also repelled the creatures many times, but after such a struggle, the population of monsters is getting smaller and smaller, and the creatures are getting stronger and stronger, and the monsters realize that sooner or later they will lose to humans, but who will listen to what the old monsters say, they still insist on the old monsters when they were young, until a king-level sea beast appears, and its mind unifies all the sea beasts, until this sea beast appears, is it?"
"I think I've heard of it, isn't it Hydra Komal?" asked Naki, who had heard about it when she was a child, when almost everyone in the sea was vying to conquer the island of the Beastmaster of the Sea, but then she heard that there seemed to be a very clever sea beast, and her parents would talk about it every night, so Naki always remembered the name of the sea beast, but she had almost forgotten about it.
"Hey, I only know that the sea beast is a nine-headed giant snake, I don't know the name, it is said that it has nine heads, and the ability of each head to spit out is also different, and the middle head does not seem to have such a powerful ability, but it is the smartest of all the heads, it is said that it persuaded every sea beast, and also gave birth to Lyphia, who can summon all sea beasts, that is, the pet of the sea beast, but the wise it was calculated by its own accomplices, a giant shark, it was called the king of the giant shark by the world, it betrayed the hydra, because it felt that the hydra was trying to rule them, and it was the most unwilling to let the family control it, so it seriously injured the hydraAt that time, it was bitten off four heads, and the middle head had a deep wound, but to everyone's surprise, including the sea beast, the hydra did not seek the help of the immortal tree, but wrapped around the immortal tree and became one with it, and from then on, no man, sea beast or living creature saw the sap flowing from that tree, even if it was cut deep with a knife or an axe, it was still not visible, but all the sea beasts and living beings believed that one day the immortal tree would shed sap again. The chief coughed and pushed the dirt he had picked up back under the herb.
"So, what's the use of this, I think it's more practical for us to ask for help than to go to the Tree of the Undead, as long as we can find those people, there should be a way. Naki said as she picked her up, and the two of them walked slowly forward.
"Don't say that, big beauty, didn't I dig it up to show you, those plants have deep roots, what does this mean, it means that they have been conceived by the tree of immortality, I don't believe that bullshit legend says, what kind of hydra has been seriously injured, either it borrowed the juice to heal itself, or it died, no matter what, it can't make that tree not flow juice, we have to try, we have to go, and drink that, your face can return to its original appearance." Chief Yin said.
"I can't refute what you said, but how are we going to find it, you're wasting your time, you know you can't believe the legend, and you're desperate to find it......" Naki stopped as she took out a piece of paper and shook it in front of Naki.
"This is what I found in Molan's bastard's room, a map, I didn't expect Molan, this old bastard, to be quite bold, to dare to steal things under Sirome's nose, and I'm not afraid that Sirom will drain his soul, but this has helped us a lot, although revenge, I still have to thank that old bastard. The chief said proudly.
"You think this thing can really lead you to that tree, you understand?" Naki looked at the paper with a puzzled expression, and the chief smiled, put the paper in his pocket, and said no more.
"By the way, what were you doing when you sneaked into Molan's room, I don't think you would know he had this thing?"
"Poisoned, but failed, hahaha...... Ahem......" Chieftain laughed as he spoke, and soon kept coughing, Naki helped him gently stroke his back, looking at Chieftain's pale face, Naki sighed in her heart, and decided to take him to the immortal tree first.
"You're crazier than Molan!" Naki said, chuckling as she looked at her half-ugly face and smiled.
