Chapter 623: The Lonely Tree

In a corner of a grassland where even the air is like a mist, a huge tree grows uncontrollably, its roots planted deep in the ground, as if firmly intertwined with the veins of the whole world. The canopy of the trees towered like a dragon hovering among the clouds, reaching out into the endless sky, obscuring the sun, moon and stars, so that no light could penetrate its rich obscuration. It was a forbidden place where the hustle and bustle had dissipated, and only dead silence remained.

Each branch and leaf was filled with mystical power, and a strong tremor radiated outward from its center, forming an impassable barrier. The gaping gaps in the ground were like terrifying beast mouths, and from time to time burst out of boiling flames, burning the surrounding land red, and the smell of burning permeated the entire tree.

On that day, all the animals saw the battle between the big tree and Ye Ning. The thunder was rolling, and the deafening roar came and went, as if the absolute divine power between heaven and earth collided with each other at this moment. Every violent collision causes the earth to shake, and the heat of the flames is like a prelude to the end of the world.

However, what terrified the animals even more was the tree's powerful abilities. At the lion king's notice, all the animals were deeply shocked, and all of them retreated, and no one dared to approach this lifeless shade again.

Since then, this once bustling forest has become deserted, and only the huge tree is left to occupy the whole world. Standing here, you can feel an invisible oppressive force, as if the big tree is the master of this world, ruling all life and death.

This towering tree was born in a mysterious seed, and the moment the seed fell from the sky and landed on this planet, it did not have any purpose or plan, but only instinctively grew and developed, and quickly occupied the land on the planet at a speed of ecstasy. Its vitality is indescribably vigorous, and it grows extremely large and vigorously.

As it grows, the planet's natural energies begin to feel an immensely strong threat. In order to protect its own stability, the natural energy began to launch a counterattack, thunder rolling, lightning flashing, all against the towering tree that was marching in triumph. However, for the towering tree, these attacks seemed to be just the resistance of a paper tiger, unable to cause the slightest damage to it. At that moment, the towering tree felt its strength, and it realized that even this planet could not stop its growth.

The towering tree did not stop, it continued to grow wantonly. Its canopy towers into the sky, as if it were about to touch the stars; Its roots are deep in the heart of the earth, as if to embrace the entire planet. It is constantly absorbing nutrients from the planet, so much so that the planet begins to have a sense of crisis, but there is nothing it can do.

I saw that the big tree stood tall on the planet, as if the stars were holding the moon, and the bright light shone on the world that coexisted with it. However, behind that splendor is the deep destruction of the entire planet's ecosystem. This towering tree that fell from the sky is ruthlessly devouring the life force of the planet, and the planet can only watch its Top Gun in helplessness.

In that vast universe, there is a beautiful and lonely planet, which is quietly suspended in the empty space, like a jewel. But deep down on this planet, there is panic and helplessness. Because, there is a towering tree from high danger, which is absorbing all its vitality in a domineering and unstoppable attitude.

In desperation and fear, the planet sought help from the outside world, and it found a human named Ye Ning. Ye Ning, an existence who somehow gained a higher dimension, his strength should be on par with that towering tree in the planet.

With the expectations and trust of the planet, Ye Ning set foot on the planet. However, just as Ye Ning approached the towering tree with resolute killing intent, an unprecedented sense of crisis rose in the depths of the tree's consciousness. It felt Ye Ning's power, a human who could threaten its existence.

The towering tree doesn't understand why there is always an attempt to cut it down, it just grows on its own instincts. But it felt anger, that anger that was challenged and threatened. As a result, this tree that fell from the sky tilted all its anger and strength on Ye Ning and this planet, and launched an earth-shattering duel.

The power of the Thunderball exploded in the universe, as if the entire galaxy was trembling at this moment. Ye Ning's golden flame was burning, it was invincible in the long river of history, however, in the face of this towering tree, it was the first

There was a setback. No matter how Ye Ning wielded his strength, that big tree was like an eternal giant, unable to be shaken in the slightest.

In the end, under the cover of the planet's natural energy, Ye Ning had to choose to retreat. His figure disappeared from the earth under the protection of the planet, leaving behind a desperate planet and a towering tree. The trees are still growing, and the planet feels even more fragile and powerless of its own life.

Towering in the heart of the planet, the towering tree is one of the planet's most prominent landmarks with its massive body and obscuring canopy. In the old days, it was always surrounded by life, with all sorts of animals looking for refuge in its wide shade, and their scent and the sounds of frolicking filled the air. At that time, the tree felt the value of its life and the meaning of its existence, and its heart was full of warmth and relief.

However, since that battle with Ye Ning, everything has changed. The power of the battle made all creatures feel deep fear, and the animals that used to play and rest under the trees no longer came. They are afraid of the powerful aura emanating from the tree, and they are afraid of becoming an unintentional sacrifice in the battle of the strong. Now, the surroundings of the towering tree have become unusually silent, only the wind shuttles between its branches and leaves, making a rustling sound, as if telling its loneliness and helplessness.

Whenever the sun sets, the shadow of the towering tree grows long, and its lonely figure is reflected in the desolate land, which highlights its loneliness even more. The lively days of the tree can only be recalled in its memories now. Its foliage is still thriving, its life force is still thriving, but there are not many creatures it can share it all. It began to wonder if this great power had given it more freedom, or had become its eternal bondage.

The towering tree tried to sway its branches, as if trying to lure its former friends back with this slight movement, but only the dead leaves responded to it, following the wind and falling to the deserted land. Its trunk records the traces of time, and each wrinkle carries the happiness of the past and the loneliness of the present.

In that land that was once full of laughter, the towering tree now stands lonely, its loneliness like an invisible thorn, deep into its heart. Time flies, months pass like a white horse, but no animal steps into its shade anymore. Its canopy is still lush, but it is no longer alive, except for the rustling of the leaves as the wind blows, accompanied by endless loneliness.

In this silent and long day, the heart of the towering tree accumulated unprecedented worries and doubts. It does not understand the meaning of its existence, if even the most basic companionship and symbiosis do not exist. It feels abandoned, and on a deeper level, is feared and hostile. The gentle animals, the former companions, and even the human explorers who passed by, now seemed to have a deep hostility towards it, as if it had become some kind of threat, something that had to be kept away.

Driven by this mentality, the towering tree began to give birth to the idea of self-defense. It can't move, it can't escape, it can only wait quietly, but it doesn't want to passively bear loneliness and fear anymore. Among its dense foliage lies an ordinary caterpillar, unaware that it is its only ally.

The caterpillar has no ill will towards the tree, but the tree is considering how to use the tiny creature to defend itself.

It remembered that in addition to itself, there was another seed that came into the world with it. They are supposed to grow together and experience the baptism of time together. However, fate is always full of uncertainties. A caterpillar, attracted to that seed, greedily devours that seed. The towering tree watched all this, and it felt an inexplicable sense of loss and anger.

However, as time passed, the towering tree discovered that the caterpillar did not die by swallowing the seed, but that it had fallen into a state of sleep. The caterpillar's body is gradually encased in magical power, and its color becomes darker. The big tree can feel that the caterpillar has a power similar to its own. It was a power from the same starry sky, and it was the same dimension as oneself.

Time flies, and the towering tree grows unrivaled on the planet, its roots are deeply rooted in the planet's soil, and the caterpillar quietly accompanies it. At first at the root of the tree

Biting open a gap, he sucked up its juice, which then fell into a nearby pool of water and was drunk by the other animals.

Later, the caterpillar climbed to the treetops, and he either ate or slept, and he slept more and more, almost for an hour of eating, and ten years of sleep.

In the endless loneliness and loneliness, the towering tree began to think. It thought of the battle with Ye Ning, and of the creatures on the planet that were far away from it because of fear. It realizes that if it wants to stop being lonely, it must eradicate all threats.

So, in the silence, the towering tree used its mind to communicate with the caterpillar. It conveys its ideas and plans to the caterpillar, hoping that the caterpillar will wake up and help it eradicate its enemies.

The towering tree knows that it is no longer lonely. Soon, it will have a real companion and they will live together quietly on this planet!
