Chapter 480: The talent that entered the Tao at the age of eighty was stupid
The cultivation world, the ancient sacred mountain.
A quiet waterhole, the sun is shining, and on the shadow cloth stone, an old tree is rooted in the bluestone of the waterhole.
The old tree is coiled with roots, curved and twisted like a coiling dragon, full of green leaves, nine meters to the top, compared with the surrounding towering trees, it seems extraordinarily short.
He has been around for nearly 100,000 years, and when he opens his mind, in order to understand the knowledge of the world, he will produce some fruit on the trunk of a tree, which will be swallowed by birds to help him open his mind. Then, as a reward, the bird will fly all over the world, and if it can live to the end of its life, it will come back to tell the story of its life.
This way of inquiring about the news is extremely inefficient, and releasing tens of thousands of birds may not necessarily come back. But the old tree is happy to do it, and keeps releasing birds.
Because it is so in line with nature, and it is also in accordance with his heart
Birds fly high, fallen leaves return to their roots, all are natural.
At that time, the world still heard of the Daomen, and heard of the supreme of all the worlds. At that time, Lao Shu thought that if he could rise from the ground one day, he would definitely go to visit the Taoist Gate and learn the supreme method of heaven and earth.
At that time, he was still young and shallow, and he also envied the flowery world outside.
Later, he heard about the battle of the dragon and phoenix, the war between the two clans, the heaven and the earth were almost in vain, and this time there were a lot of birds coming back, because they needed to flee.
At the same time, it also brought back many living beings.
The old tree has lived for 10,000 years at this time, and with some Taoism, it can avoid the catastrophe of the dragon and phoenix.
They say that the dragon and phoenix are powerful, they say that the dragon clan is strong, and the phoenix clan is prosperous, but no one can say why the dragon and phoenix are at war?
When it was about 20,000 years old, the birds that came back no longer mentioned the Daomen, and only heard the words of the Ten Thousand Ways to One.
Legend has it that someone framed all the Tao together and reopened the principles of heaven and earth.
Lao Shu didn't understand, he was too weak at that time.
Although he has lived for 20,000 years, he is a plant and a tree, and he is born without flesh and blood. The acquired spirit is more sluggish, day and night are muddy, and 20,000 years is actually 200 years of soberness.
Lao Shu is not in a hurry about this, and he doesn't know what to worry about.
Continue your practice.
When you are awake, listen to the birds and talk about the changes in the world. And most of them are called invincible, who dominates the world, and then the youth are replaced by a new generation.
Although the top powerhouses in the world have a lifespan of thousands of years, it will take them most of the time to reach the top, and the rest will have to fight against the five decays of heaven and man. The pinnacle of each generation of supreme power generally lasts only 500 years.
The old dryant had heard a lot of names, but he couldn't remember them all.
Because it was so common, it was like a weed on the roots of a tree for his long lifespan, changing from generation to generation, and it seemed as if nothing had changed.
But the strong of heaven and earth are getting weaker and weaker.
Before he knew it, the old tree spirit found that he had become the strongest person in heaven and earth. The roots stretch out into the ground, and the divine consciousness sweeps all over the heavens and the earth, and the highest is no more than entering the Tao.
Even those who have entered the Tao are not necessarily pure, and they enter the Tao completely by their own understanding of the Tao.
A sense of melancholy welled up in my heart.
The old dryad closed himself off, intending to wait a few thousand more years, and perhaps the world would be a little more interesting then.
Until one day, a sword roared through the sky.
It was a familiar sword intent, a kind that had appeared in the primeval past. When he was still weak, the sword intent that ran through the dragon and phoenix battle.
Taishang Wuji Sword Intent.
It's not the sword intent that those juniors used to take the blessings of their predecessors and draw a scoop according to the gourd.
The old tree spirit woke up and saw a woman in white, with the cultivation of the primordial infant, one person and one sword to kill the demon saint.
Amazing and unparalleled.
The old dryad asked the bird, "Who is she?" ”
"Sword Immortal, the most talented person in the Sword Sect for thousands of years, can master the Heavenly Sword at the age of ten."
"Ten years old? It's not enough for me to fall a leaf once, talent is indeed rare. ”
The old tree is spring for 500 years and autumn for 500 years. The woman named Sword Immortal only took a few decades to complete her thousand-year-old journey.
Looking at the ancient years, he entered the Tao at the age of 500, which is rare in the world.
What's more, she is a human race, born a mortal being. Compared with birds and beasts, he has spiritual intelligence, but compared to the dragon clan, this bloodline is like silt.
"Help me go and see the era of the Sword Immortal."
The old tree spirit was a little more interested, maybe he hadn't heard of the outside world for too long, or maybe he had seen the unparalleled sword intent again.
After countless springs and autumns, it was not a bird that came back to tell the story, but a human being.
A human who also possesses the supreme infinite sword intent.
The Sword Immortal is dead.
————————————
Outside the small stone pool.
A tiger demon with a round head and a round brain cautiously approached, followed by a human.
The man's appearance was unremarkable, his eyes were as cold as a sword's edge, and he was wearing a pale red robe, the red was dark and heavy, as if it was a stain that had not been washed away countless times.
Holding an unpretentious iron sword in his arms.
Some fat tigers did not have the majesty of the tiger roaring mountains and forests in the past, and they carefully accompanied the man, and their light hands and feet were a little more honest.
And where does it dare to be majestic, the master behind him is even more terrifying than the sword immortal back then.
The sword immortal had a request, but he only warned the demon kings of the mountains near Kyushu. Others should eat and drink, and it would be a shame to say that they should join forces to help out.
If you are not related to each other, how old are you?
The people who have enmity with humans inside the Ancient Divine Mountain are generally the demon kings of the outer circle, and many of the monsters in the inner circle have never seen humans in their lives. Because the world is too big, the primeval sacred mountain may not be able to travel all in a lifetime, let alone the cultivation world.
But this man suddenly rushed into the Ancient Divine Mountain, beat all the famous demon kings and demon saints, and finally made a request.
He needed a treasure medicine, a powerful human that could reverse the life and death of a human who was infinitely close to the Demon Saint.
At that time, the Tiger Demon was also present, and he could see that those Demon Saint Demon Kings looked embarrassed, and no one nodded even if they put their swords on their necks.
Obviously, the demon saints really can't come up with this kind of treasure.
If you want to say that they can find a treasure medicine to prolong life, the most important thing in the ancient Divine Mountain is the elixir. But if you want to say that you can save the demon saints who are approaching the end of life and whose foundation is seriously damaged, you can simply slaughter them.
There is such a good thing, the big guys eat it by themselves, where will they keep it?
Later, a demon saint mentioned here.
Xiaoshitan, where the ancient sacred mountain has existed for thousands of years, does not have any spiritual veins of the spiritual mountain, but it has gradually become known because it has existed for too long.
It is now a forbidden place.
Except for those little monsters who don't know anything, the demon saints and demon kings don't dare to approach here on weekdays.
Because there is an old dryad there, which has existed for at least tens of thousands of years.
So the demon saints chose the tiger demon to lead the way, and it was only a Jindan demon who didn't even arrive at the demon king, which can be described as flattering.
He was almost so frightened that he fainted on the spot
"Honorable ...... Venerable, go inside and you will reach the small stone pool. ”
The fat tiger demon overlapped the two meat pads, learning human etiquette. He belonged to the youkai of the inner circle, and this was the first time he had seen a human, but he had read some books after all.
With hundreds or thousands of years of life, I have been exposed to many things, and many things are naturally understood.
"Inside is the sacred tree."
Li Changsheng probed and sensed that there was a tree in the pool, which was ordinary and unspiritual.
It's just that those demon saints are so sure that they can't run to their own mountains, so they won't deceive themselves.
I can't see through it.
Li Changsheng commented so, and a bit of color lit up in his dead eyes.
"Let's go."
"The little ones can wait outside, and don't dare to enter."
The tiger demon shook his head repeatedly.
Xiao Shitan is not a dangerous Jedi, but since the demon saints dare not enter, he, the little monster of Jindan, dare not enter.
Li Changsheng stepped into the small stone pool, and a cool breeze blew, and it was not a holy place in his eyes, but a small waterhole where he could see his head at a glance.
"Senior, junior Li Changsheng came to find the medicine to bring the dead back to life."
He bowed down and bowed respectfully, and waited like this for a day, but the old tree in the pool still did not respond.
Li Changsheng repeated it again, waited for another day, and still didn't reply.
It was as if it was just an ordinary tree, at least in his perception there really wasn't anything out of the ordinary.
Li Changsheng repeated for the third time: "The junior Li Changsheng came to find a medicine that can bring the dead back to life. ”
The small stone pond is quiet and breezy, as always.
Zheng !!
The sword light that rushed into the sky cut through the night, and the ancient sacred mountain was like day in a radius of thousands of miles.
The Heavenly Sword slashed at the trunk of the old tree in the pool, and the three peaks hundreds of meters high behind it split in two, and the ordinary old tree was unscathed.
Li Changsheng slashed out with another sword, but the sword light that was enough to break the sea and open the mountain could not leave a trace on the dead bark.
His breathing became rapid.
The more incredible the old tree, the more likely it is that there is a medicine to bring the dead back to life.
Li Changsheng cut a spring and summer, wielded a million swords, and still couldn't shake the old tree in the slightest. Until the beginning of autumn, when the birds returned to their nests, a small bird ignored his sword light and landed on the tree.
The old tree finally moved.
The leaves shook slightly, and an ancient will gradually awakened.
"Housheng, what's your name?"
"The surname is Li Changsheng, and there is no road number." Li Changsheng replied.
The old will was silent for a few breaths, and its voice was slow and sluggish like that of an old man.
"Immortality is the name, the longevity of all beings, the life of heaven and earth, the meaning of eternal existence, yes, yes. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many capable people are strong, and what they ask for is only the word longevity. ”
"If you want to live forever, you can't do it."
"What do you ask for?"
"Seek perfection." Li Changsheng replied, his tone calm and resolute: "I don't know when the younger generation has been quite lacking in his life. ”
"Oh?"
The old tree shook gently, and a gaze different from the naked eye fell, as if to see through the young man in front of him.
Thundered!
Suddenly there was a slight thunder in the sky, and a piece of the bark of the tree that had been cut down with a million swords was broken.
This scene made Li Changsheng's eyes a little more puzzled, but before he could ask, that irresistible gaze with scrutiny disappeared.
The old tree spirit took the first step and asked, "You are already standing at the peak of heaven and earth, how can you have any regrets?" ”
"Maybe it's because you're pretentious when you're a mortal end up making your family uneasy, or maybe it's because you think you're in the middle of your cultivation, but you end up plunging headlong into the quagmire."
Li Changsheng looked down slightly at his hands full of calluses and bloodstains, and he didn't know how many of the bloodstains were from the enemy, how many were his own, and how many were old people.
"I tried to save a lot of people, but in the end, I tried my best but I couldn't seem to save even one."
The old tree was a little interested, and said: "Your thoughts are already understood, and the old decay does have a way to come back to life." That is my fruit, and it prolongs the life of living beings for thousands of years. ”
"There are no restrictions, no shackles, no matter what kind of cultivation."
"This is the fruit of immortality."
The trunk of the tree shook slightly, and a cyan fruit appeared, which was pregnant with the vitality of creation that seized the heavens and the earth.
Li Changsheng subconsciously stretched out his hand, but the old tree did not resist, and even bent the trunk slightly, so that the other party could touch it better.
Thousands of years of life, but not formed.
In their realm, many things do not need words to say. Just by touching Li Changsheng, he understood that this fruit could not save He Kun, nor could it make up for his own shortcomings.
It's not that this old tree spirit deceives itself, the fruit has the ability to change life against the sky, but it takes many years to conceive. This time is uncertain for the time being, and the only thing that can be determined is that Elder He will not be able to wait for that time.
It's like the old people in the past can't wait for themselves to have this cultivation now.
The son wants to raise but does not wait, he wants to protect but the kiss is not there.
Therefore, he has a lot of shortcomings.
The old treant continued, "You can take it on condition that you tell me about the world outside. The old decay will give the bird spirit fruit, and now it makes no difference to give you this afterlife. ”
Li Changsheng nodded, and then asked, "Can I take it in advance?" ”
"Naturally, it can, but decay does not guarantee the effect."
The old tree swayed in the wind, and he was very interested in the junior in front of him.
One is the way of heaven, and the other is mortal.
He said that he had cultivated from a mortal to this point, and Lao Shu also saw Li Changsheng's "extraordinary".
It's too mediocre, compared to that woman is just mud on the ground.
The old tree has no flesh and blood body, but there are many people who have seen it, so he can naturally see that Li Changsheng's talent for refining qi is low, and the mortal body does not enter the aura.
But he has come to this point.
"The last time I woke up, I saw a woman with the same sword intent as you, and I heard that the Heavenly Sword only chooses one master, did you kill her?"
Li Changsheng first shook his head, and then nodded inexplicably.
"It's a pity, she could have been holy." Lao Shu was a little stunned, the interval between his comeback this time was so short that it was for the sake of the Sword Immortal.
Want to see this strong person who seems to be a little special in the long history, what kind of style is her era, and what kind of story does it have?
Now it's not bad, there is a Li Changsheng.
"You are a mortal, how can you cultivate to this point?"
"At the age of eighty, he practiced qi and entered the Tao, and he was stupid and talented."
"How much?!"
A month later, Li Changsheng told the old tree spirit about the changes of the times outside, the mountains and rivers, and the change of dynasty. The content is wonderful and the process is unheard of.
Heaven and earth are still the same heaven and earth, but the people who tell stories for him are not birds and beasts. It is a strong man who has walked in the red dust for thousands of years and has extremely rich experience.
Li Changsheng stood up and saluted, and said, "The junior has to go to see off an old man and say goodbye." ”
"Little friends walk slowly, and come often when you have time in the future." The old tree said goodbye quite cordially.
When I came, I was still a junior, and when I left, I was already a little friend.
Such a rapid relationship is not because Li Changsheng's story is well told, but because the other party is an eighty-year-old Taoist who is "talented and stupid".
