Chapter 118: The Tree of Protection
In the eyes of powerful beings of any plane, Dingtian is the best tonic, no less than an elixir, Meng Yang was surprised at first because he still remembered the Haikou that Dingtian boasted in front of him, but he didn't want to add the protection of Dingtian in the current difficult situation. If this is really a place with countless ancient battlefield ruins, as the Dean told Ruoyi, then Meng Yang is indeed difficult to estimate what powerful and strange existence there are here, but there is no doubt that there must be a strong creature comparable to the Holy Beast riding of the Three Saints, once they sense the breath of the heavens and become frenzied, with only the strength of Meng Yang, Ruoyi and the little power they have in their hands now, how long can they resist without being swallowed up?
In view of this, Meng Yang groaned and asked Dingtian: "Dingtian, if you can grow up smoothly enough to withstand my washing and transformation for you, you don't need to remind me, I promised to pass on your [Grass and Trees God Chapter] and I will never break my word." But now I'm in a bit of trouble, and I was hoping that you would give me some help, but I was afraid that you would be coveted by the super creatures, and I was afraid that I would not be able to protect you. After all, you are now essentially transformed by the Sycamore Spirit Crystal, and your breath is the best tonic for the powerful creatures in the world, and I can't let you take this risk. ”
Dingtian's excitement suddenly subsided, but he asked without giving up: "Dear master, as your servant, Dingtian certainly hopes that he can follow you all the time like burning the sky and hunting the sky, and do what he can for you." Dingtian can't share your worries for you, but has a tendency to become a burden to the master, so how can Dingtian be embarrassed? Master, if you are bored in your heart, you might as well tell me about the difficulties you have encountered, maybe I can give you some useful advice. ”
After all, the 10,000-year-old sycamore that condensed the spirit crystal and enlightened the divine consciousness in the top sky, just from this conversation with Meng Yang, it can be seen that it is actually stronger than the spiritual wisdom of hunting the sky and burning the sky.
Meng Yang told Dingtian in detail about the problems and difficulties encountered when he came to the royal territory to establish a base in the Valley of Yellow Sands.
Who knew that after hearing this, Dingtian shouted excitedly: "Oh, respected master, gathering spirits is my natural skill, rooted in the earth, I can even gather the aura of heaven and earth, can make the grass and trees grow luxuriantly, can attract birds to vote, think about it, is there a more suitable errand than me to find a water source?" I don't dare to guarantee now, but as long as I am given the opportunity to try, I will definitely be able to help the master find and attract the spring water in the center of the earth, and relieve the master's troubles. Meng Yang said with a smile: "With your help, it will be like a tiger for my future actions, but how can your spirit crystal aura be concealed, once you use your natural skills, it is difficult to ensure that the aura does not escape, and the powerful creatures are alarmed, if even I can't resist it, it will be worth the loss." ”
Dingtian said sharply: "Master, have you forgotten that when you made the contract, you gave me several drops of essence blood, hehe, the master is really the body of the immortal, your essence blood has an immeasurable effect on me, not only improving my current attributes, but also greatly improving my innate skills by several levels." If the master is worried about this, there is no need, as long as I don't use the power of my divine consciousness to take the initiative to attack, my spirit crystal aura will never leak out. Master, what I said is true, can you let Dingtian go out and try it?"
Meng Yang pondered for a long time and said: "Since this is the case, then I will take you out, but you must not act reluctantly, if you can't find a water source, I will find another way." ”
Meng Yang used his divine sense to talk to Dingtian in the storage ring, and it took at least half an hour, and when he concentrated to take Dingtian out of the storage ring, when he opened his eyes, he saw that an oil lamp had been lit in the tent at some point.
Meng Yang quietly walked out of the tent with the top of the sky, and the black tower-tall Colifo took his demon wolf mount, standing quietly outside the tent to stand guard, and Meng Yang asked about the situation of the Phoenix Iron Guards. This question made Meng Yang more happy.
It turned out that all the slaves who could be brought into the imperial capital Panlong slave market for auction were called "golden oil" slaves by the world, which meant that they could do all kinds of work, and whoever bought the past and asked them to do anything could quickly get started. The problem of building a base that Meng Yang was worried about was simply redundant. Looking at the eyes, these 7,000 people are the craftsmen that Meng Yang bought at a high price.
The five hundred wolf guards have received quite strict training in Longxu Fort, and they are all Mengyang's blood slaves, so there is no need for Mengyang to worry about these things such as camping and arranging guard posts. Since the 7,000 people of the Phoenix Iron Guard are a panacea, Meng Yang knows that in this way, there will be a certain guarantee in terms of time and quality for the construction of the base.
Meng Yang did not recall the Burning Sky and Hunter Heaven who had been sent to the farther area to be on guard, he retreated to the location of the teleportation entrance, he felt that although the teleportation entrance could only be opened by a person with royal blood like Ruoyi, he had to consider the safety of the base by establishing it in the Yellow Sand Valley.
The prevention of unknown dangers in the territory is the most important, but the most teleportation entrance also has to be careful, he did not say this concern before Ruoyi designed the base drawings, because he was afraid that Ruoyi would become more and more worried about the survival of the royal family. If there were outsiders entering the Valley of the Yellow Sands at that time, I was afraid that the royal family would not die out and would have completely declined.
The establishment of the base is not only related to this exploration, but also related to the entire grand plan of Meng Yang and Ruoyi. Meng Yang valued it no less than Dragon Ruin Castle.
Because of the long-term in-depth development plan considered in advance, the batch of materials that Meng Yang purchased from Byron was enough to build three Dragon Ruin Forts, and it was natural to build a base.
With this magician who is about to advance to level seven, Meng Yang is determined to build several magic arrow towers above level four in the base fortress, and on weekdays, people can be arranged on the arrow tower to watch and guard, once the base is attacked on a large scale, the arrow tower is the best means of defense. The base fortress is a city, and Meng Yang has seen a lot of the strategy of attacking and defending the city.
"Dingtian, you have just felt the environment here, how is it, what have you discovered?" Meng Yang asked Dingtian with his mind.
Dingtian floated in the air from the palm of Meng Yang's hand, and a voice with a sense of perseverance came: "Master, the sinister and barren place is really beyond Dingtian's expectations. However, you can rest assured, master, Dingtian will do his best to resolve the master's difficulties! We will definitely transform the environment here for the master, and it is only a matter of time before we bring in water sources!"
Meng Yang asked, "Are you sure that you will not attract more danger if you are here?"
Dingtian said proudly: "Master, Dingtian has been nourished by your essence and blood, and has already been reborn, and besides, now it is not my body, but the spirit crystal, which is more convenient for me to display my natural skills." Master, I have a wish in the sky, and I ask the master to fulfill it!"
Meng Yang said: "Oh, what do you want, let's talk about it first." ”
"Master, you intend to use this place as an important stronghold for a long time, right? In this case, how can the place where the master lives be disturbed by the yellow sand, and how can you not see the slightest bit of life? Dingtian swears that he will take root here, gather the aura of heaven and earth, and turn this place into an oasis! Believe my master, although Dingtian cannot follow you to fight on the battlefield, he can give you a base full of vitality, and Dingtian will definitely do it. ”
Dingtian said impassionedly, but Meng Yang was quite moved.
Isn't it just the same thing that confirms the performance of the heavens?
It is just a plane tree, and because of its civilized wisdom, it is comparable to a human being who knows how to repay his kindness and abides by his duty as a servant, which is commendable.
As long as there is spirituality, there is no distinction between high and low in nature, and their obsession with pursuing the great road is the same, and only the great wisdom can perceive all this, and can find the unique "Tao" that fits in harmony from thousands of different "Taos", and treat each other harmoniously? What does this forgetting word refer to? The avenues of all things are more than 10,000, and how can they find common ground where they are obsessed?
After a little emotion, Meng Yang said: "Dingtian, you have this heart, I am very pleased to be the master, you will not live up to me, I will live up to you." But do everything according to our ability, do not be greedy for success, no matter what we are after, but one thing is the same. That is, it is important that we can only talk about pursuit if we have survived well. ”
Dingtian said: "Thank you for your concern, Dingtian is measured." Without further ado, Dingtian will lay the foundation now, and only by manifesting my true nature can I use my innate skills, but, hehe, this ・・・・・・ I still need the help of my master. ”
Meng Yang was curious: "How can I help you?"
Dingtian said in a condensed voice: "I still need a drop of my master's essence blood to successfully take root in this desolate land of yellow sand and survive smoothly." ”
This is just a trivial matter, Meng Yang immediately squeezed out a drop of essence blood according to Dingtian's prompt, and dripped onto the amber-shaped Dingtian, in an instant, the sapling hidden in the spirit crystal drilled out like breaking the ground, and then, Dingtian fell in front of the teleportation entrance according to the direction specified by the master, according to Meng Yang's assumption, Dingtian has the ability to attack with divine consciousness, and it is the most suitable to be the guard of the teleportation entrance, and, when it grows luxuriant, even if someone breaks in from the outside, he can't see the situation of the base at the first time.
The spirit crystal was deeply submerged in the yellow sand, and with Meng Yang's divine sense, he saw that it was constantly diving straight down, and the magic was that the small sapling was constantly growing thick and tall, although there was not a single branch or leaf, but it stretched tenaciously towards the ground in the yellow sand, and it seemed that it was not suppressed by the yellow sand soil at all.
Now it was such a scene: the spirit crystal was constantly diving deep into the center of the yellow sand, and the main body sapling it emitted was constantly growing upward, and in the blink of an eye, Meng Yang noticed that the spirit crystal had actually dived three thousand meters!
In fact, Meng Yang's current divine sense can't see more than two meters into the ground, just because Dingtian fused his essence and blood and signed an ancient contract with him, the seal of the contract has long turned into a hidden love flower seal and left it on the Dingtian Spirit Crystal.
This is already a spectacle in this plane.
After a short while, Meng Yang saw that countless filaments of five colors were born from the spirit crystal, and Fu Zhi thought in his heart that it was the root of the heavens.
At the same time, Meng Yang noticed that this distance was already the limit of what Dingtian could dive, and he suddenly understood that this was actually an extremely clever means of self-protection by Dingtian. The spirit crystal hidden three thousand meters deep underground, secretly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth or something, unless it is possible to see through it unless it is the strength of the true spirit transformation peak, otherwise, who can discover its existence?
Moreover, the spirit crystal dives deep underground, which helps Dingtian to vigorously improve this land of yellow sand, Meng Yang suddenly felt that maybe with Dingtian's continuous growth, the future Yellow Sand Valley can really become a vast and boundless oasis.
At this moment, Meng Yang noticed that the very thin aura of heaven and earth in all directions seemed to be attracted by the roots that continued to extend in all directions like spider silk, and slowly gathered towards the spirit crystals of the top sky, and then he saw that the spirit crystals did not rise and shrink, but those roots and saplings began to grow as if they had received nutrients.
It seems that the aura of heaven and earth here is really very scarce, and it is quite difficult to gather it with the ability of Dingtian, Meng Yang is hesitating whether to enter meditation and help Dingtian, when Dingtian comes with an idea: "Master, you get out of the way, my body manifests, at least 100 meters covered, I can do it myself, the master does not need to interfere!"
Meng Yang retreated as he was told, and withdrew the Divine Consciousness that remained on Dingtian's body.
In a few moments, a thick oily green sapling as a child's arm broke through the ground, and in an instant, at a speed that Meng Yang could barely see, it soared upward, blooming one by one, and the leaf buds on the branches were instantaneous, and when the main trunk grew to about thirty meters above the ground, about the thickness of a large bowl, Meng Yang saw that almost at the same time, the leaf buds on all the branches suddenly bloomed into leaves together.
At this moment, Meng Yang had an extreme joy that was indescribable. And he keenly found that if he didn't know that Dingtian was a sycamore, it would be difficult to imagine that this "strange tree" that had completely surpassed Mengyang's cognition was transformed by Dingtian's spirit crystal. Meng Yang even believed that even if Ruoyi, who was familiar with the body of the top sky, or the quasi-saint Spielberg came in person, he would definitely not recognize that this tree was actually the sycamore that had attracted the divine bird Phoenix in the Phoenix Courtyard.
"Could it be that this is also an effective means of self-protection by Dingtian, deliberately making the manifested body become an unknown strange tree, or is it all because of my essence and blood that caused its essential changes?"
In the flash of Meng Yang's thoughts, the yellow sand circling and flying over the Yellow Sand Valley seemed to have been blown away by a hurricane and disappeared cleanly, and at this time, Meng Yang noticed that as Ding Tian said, this body that it manifested was flourishing in the blink of an eye, covering a range of nearly 100 meters.
"Master, your base, as long as it is under the protection of my canopy, I have the ability to keep it safe!"
The wolf guards in charge of guarding were the first to notice the big tree that suddenly appeared behind the camp, and they were dumbfounded for a while, Colifo rode the demon wolf, and flew in front of Meng Yang like lightning, with a look of vigilance at the moment of the great enemy, the blood slave's loyalty to his master was undoubted, and it had long been verified.
Dingtian had taken root, bringing a great deal of life to the lifeless Yellow Sand Valley, but the water source that Meng Yang needed most had not yet been found.
"Sacred Tree! Is this a Divine Tree?"
Colifo said in disbelief that his wolf mount had not noticed anything unusual, and he gradually dispelled his guard, but looked at Meng Yang, who was calm and smiling, suspiciously.
