When he saw the portrait of the rootless life, the high priest of Xuncheng, Aoira, suddenly said excitedly: "I am very familiar with this person, it is the former lord of Xuncheng, but that was thousands of years ago. ”

"He disappeared for thousands of years, returned more than 4,000 years ago, and then went deep into the line and never saw him again."

"The city lords of the other seven cities also went with them at that time, and they have not returned yet."

"As for this one."

Aoi stretched his finger at Wudang Zhou Sheng, thought seriously, and then spoke: "This one doesn't have any impression. ”

The rest of the priests also spoke, indicating that they had not encountered any foreign visitors other than Zhang Taichu.

"Deep in the line?"

"Do you mean the boundary behind the walls?"

"So after Feng Yao went to the city wall? What's there? ”

Zhang Taichu's eyes brightened a little after hearing Kwai La's answer.

Kwai La replied truthfully, "I've been waiting in the temple and haven't explored any more areas, so I don't know. ”

Hanas replied, "The Lord made eight cities, a 120,000-mile line of defense, and cut a corner of the continent. ”

"The demon tide attacking the city, in addition to the desire for the flesh and blood of the human race, is also related to the area behind us, and there may be more secrets hidden."

"Before the Lord of the City left, he didn't explain the reason in detail, but now it seems that he disappeared with your old friend."

Zhang Taichu nodded: "Okay, then I'll go and have a look." ”

Without further ado, after learning of Rootless's whereabouts, he didn't plan to stay too long.

After confirming that the demon tide had been completely cleared, he waved his hand, tore through the space, and then disappeared.

The eight priests on the city wall and more warriors had been watching the rift heal completely, and then they reluctantly withdrew their gaze.

After leaving the city, there is the vast Gobi, and the only river that feeds the life of the human race is only one.

The river meandered, from the westernmost Qiancheng to the easternmost Kuncheng, and both ends disappeared into nothingness, unknown from source and whereabout.

The river has many tributaries, some of which eventually disappeared into the depths of the Gobi Desert, and some of which have spread far into nowhere.

Every time Zhang Taichu crossed a distance of thousands of miles, he would descend from the void to reality and observe the surrounding environment.

Although the land in it is barren, it is much better than the land outside the city that has been washed by the demon tide all year round.

As we go deeper, there are fewer and fewer traces left by humans, and more and more strange plants and monsters can be seen.

Unlike on the blue star, these plants still don't see a bit of green, but more gray and black.

Demon beasts are also different from the creatures on the earth, they are relatively much larger, and most of them have hideous faces and exude a bloodthirsty and violent aura.

When you go deeper than 1,000 miles, you can see traces of the Terrans, buildings made of stone.

After going two thousand miles deeper, the area he was in was no longer within the control of the humans who left the city.

This was followed by three thousand miles, four thousand miles, five thousand miles, and ten thousand miles.

When they reached a depth of 10,000 miles, the density of demon beasts reached the highest, and even all kinds of strange plants were very vigorous, forming a large area of formed jungle.

By the time they reached 20,000 miles, everything began to decline again, the jungle slowly became scarce, and the monsters gradually disappeared, leaving only the bare Gobi Desert, where life disappeared.

And the branch of that great river, at this time, only the last river channel remained, but it was only dozens of zhang wide, and it flowed to the deepest part.

The rivers in the Otherworldlands are also different from the Blue Star, although they are non-toxic and harmless, there are no living creatures in them, and the flow is strange, even the uphill sections of the mounds that are tens of miles long can be successfully passed.

Zhang Taichu saw the strangeness of the river, so he simply started to explore and continued to go deeper.

After 30,000 miles, there was no plant or creature in sight, except for the lonely river.

"It's coming."

"There's some kind of strange fluctuation that seems to be calling me."

"It's weird."

He stopped on a lonely hill, looked at the endless desolation around him, felt the Yuan Qi of the heaven and earth around him, and found that it had become much more refined.

At the same time, there is a strange connection that triggers a throbbing in the heart.

"The deepest part of the territory after these eight cities."

"Sure enough, there is a big secret."

The golden light in Zhang Taichu's eyes began to flow, and the divine ring appeared behind him, and he felt that strange feeling was much stronger.

"...... here"

He confirmed the direction, then reached out and swiped lightly, causing the space in front of him to crack, and after stepping into it.

In the blink of an eye, it came to a hundred thousand miles later.

Boom Boom –

The corresponding spatial nodes here are much stronger, and when they are opened, they even cause vibrations in the surrounding space.

Zhang Taichu's figure flashed, and he came to the area of 130,000 miles after the Eight Cities, which is also the end point in the true sense.

And what appeared in front of his eyes was an extremely shocking scene.

It can be seen that on the edge of the continental plate, in the endless void, there is an incomparably huge tree.

The body size is like a banyan tree on the blue star, which has been magnified countless times.

The thick trunk was miles long, and the roots in it were rooted in nothingness, each hundreds of feet thick.

Thousands of roots, after submerging into the void for a while, then stretched out like vines on the earth, until they completely disappeared into nothingness.

And the river, which was tens of zhang wide, flowed into the void at the edge, spread all the way to the root system of the main trunk of the big tree, reached the source, and disappeared completely.

The main trunk of the tree is golden, rising dozens of miles high to the sky, and the surface is still flowing with emerald green light, extending a total of twelve branches, and the twelve branches continue to spread outward, differentiating more branches, and the dense canopy extends to the sky ten thousand feet high.

Each of the turquoise leaves was surrounded by a faint layer of colorful glow, exuding an extremely rich Yuan Qi.

Yuan Qi was so dense that it formed a fog that spread all the way to the far reaches of nothingness......

At the moment of seeing this peerless tree, Zhang Taichu felt the throbbing sensation of the divine ring behind him conveying to the sea of knowledge, which was extremely strong.

"Incomparably rich Yuan Qi."

"An incomparably holy breath."

"In the depths of the gossip totem, there is actually a supernatural tree."

He looked at the billions of emerald green leaves flowing with colorful brilliance, each leaf was several zhang wide, revealing an incomparably amazing qi, like the most precious elixir in the world.

Boom Boom –

There seemed to be a muffled sound of thunder in the trees.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Taichu felt a familiar, dirty breath from it.

"Moqi?"

His eyes narrowed slightly, surprised.

Just on the edge of the continent just after the Eight Cities.

In the vast void, a divine tree can be seen, exuding an incomparably rich Yuan Qi, but it is mixed with a touch of filthy Demon Qi.

Zhang Taichu squinted his eyes and sensed the problem.

He stretched out his hand and grasped it, and captured the demonic qi in the surrounding heaven and earth, turning it into a small purple ball of Qi, and then with a movement of his heart, he completely annihilated it.

"How can there be a demon qi in this sacred place?"

"Are they among the rootless?"

Zhang Taichu looked at the big tree in the void, took a step, and in the next moment, he crossed a distance of several miles, descended in the void, and came to the top of the big tree.

The Yuan Qi escaping from the big tree was too rich and amazing, and when it came into contact with Zhang Taichu's figure, he couldn't wait to drill into it, and he didn't enter the sea of Qi, cheering and jumping.

If there is a cultivator on the Blue Star here, I am afraid that he will not be able to stay even for a moment, and he will be directly blown up alive!

"Woo......"

The little dragon, known as Nanli, automatically flew out of the sea of knowledge, looked at the huge tree that was incomparably huge for it, flicked its tail excitedly, drooling from the corner of its mouth, and immediately pounced.

"Wow Ka."

"Woo woo woo ......"

Nan Li's two nostrils enlarged, and he vigorously absorbed the rich Yuan Qi around him, and his face showed an emotion of incomparable enjoyment.

Not satisfied, it stared at the large green leaf, flew straight over, opened its small mouth and nibbled on a leaf.

Sonorous –

The metal cracked loudly, and the leaf cracked a small gap, falling a little fragment, and was swallowed in Nanli's belly.

Boom Boom –

Its belly swelled up a little like a grenade had exploded in it, and then immediately shrunk.

The small body, which was originally only one finger long, immediately doubled in size, and was two fingers long.

"Wow Ka Ka ......"

The little red dragon's face showed enjoyment, and finally his eyes lit up, and his body turned into a red lightning bolt, quickly gnawing on the leaves above the sacred tree.

Even a leaf several feet in size could not last for a few breaths under its mouth, and in a burst of metal cracking, it all entered its stomach.

After eating a whole leaf.

Nanli's originally small body has also grown to two feet long, like an adult red snake.

"Woo Lu~"

It spit out the letter, its big eyes were full of happiness, and hooked its chin at Zhang Taichu, signaling the other party to also hurry up and nibble on two leaves to eat.

Immediately afterward, it turned into red lightning again, began to nibble on the leaves of the sacred tree, and disappeared into the dense branches.

In a metallic clang.

Zhang Taichu's eyebrows were slightly raised, feeling a little interesting.

"This little dragon has been in my sea of knowledge for so long, occasionally nibbling on a little insignificant spiritual power, and he hasn't grown so fast."

"It seems that this divine tree does contain extremely powerful power."

"Let this little dragon gnaw a few leaves, it won't affect much."

He whispered to himself, and then his mind moved, and he released his majestic spiritual power, covering the realm of several miles in the blink of an eye, and it was still expanding rapidly.

After a few breaths, his spiritual thoughts covered the entire sacred tree, and then swept around every corner.

"Found it."

"The Root of the Demon."

"And a few figures!"

Zhang Taichu's eyes lit up, his figure flickered, and he disappeared in place in an instant.

·

·

Meanwhile.

On the back of the trunk of the sacred tree, on a branch hundreds of zhang wide.

In the midst of the gold and turquoise, there was a deep purple fissure.

The fissure is 100 zhang long, and the widest part is dozens of zhang, like an open eyelid, in which a strong purple light can be seen.

At the edge of this rift, there were ten figures.

Most of the figures were old men, except for a young man, all of whom remained cross-legged and motionless like sculptures.

Their eyes were closed, and their bodies exuded a surging breath of Qi, which flowed and turned into ropes, hanging them in the cracks like old fishermen.

The rift was steaming with demonic brilliance, impacting the outside world every moment, but when he just escaped from the rift, he was immediately slashed by the attack released by several people.

Buzz –

Suddenly, a light flowed.

Appeared above the Rift.

Boom –

The ten people sitting on the ground opened their eyes at the same moment, revealing a look of horror, and they all looked up at the place where the light appeared.

"Extremely powerful coercion, where did this master come from?"

"The breath released by more than a dozen of us and others can't affect its ...... in the slightest."

"It's a human race, not a demon spirit!"

After seeing the human race, the ten people sitting on the branches breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, but three of them immediately exclaimed in surprise.

The old man with a white beard and an unruly and chic face shouted: "Zhang Taichu? ”

There was a middle-aged man with a blue skin and a fair face, who widened his eyes and said, "Little uncle? ”

There was also an old Taoist with a goatee, a thin body, and a blue robe, who said in disbelief: "Lao Zhang? ”

The voices of the three of them were very consistent, and although their names were different, they all pointed to one person—the young Taoist who was hanging in the air.

Zhang Taichu had a smile on his face, looked at the faces of the three people, first looked at the old man wearing a gray practice uniform with white hair scattered, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you rootless?" ”

The old man's eyes trembled, and he wanted to stand up, but the demonic qi that was constantly rioting in the purple gap forced him to stay where he was at all times, so he could only sigh and say, "It's been a long time since anyone called me that. ”

Zhang Taichu's eyes wandered, and fell on the inch-headed man with the most excited face, and said with a smile: "I think you are the son of the big-eared thief, Zhang Chulan, his unscrupulous father-Zhang Yude?" ”

The inch-headed man's eyes were red with excitement, and he nodded and said, "It's me, it's me, may I ask Uncle Xiao, how is my son doing now?" Are you healthy and happy? He ......"

Zhang Taichu said: "Don't worry, this kid is very competitive now, and he has returned to Longhu Mountain and become my personal heir." ”

When Zhang Yude heard this, he couldn't restrain the tears in his eyes, and his eyes were blurred with tears.

Zhang Taichu turned his head to look at the last goat beard Taoist again, and smiled: "I said Lao Zhou, isn't Ling very good?" Looking at you like this, I didn't expect me to come. ”

"Don't worry, Zhou Meng's old monkey has run Wudang very well, and your Qimen has not broken the inheritance after the wind, and you have been learned by a talented little guy."

Zhou Sheng's eyes were bright, but he laughed three times and said: "Hahaha, good, good, good!" ”

"I didn't expect to see my old friend thousands of years later!"

The speed of time in the Otherworldly Lands is not the same as that of the Blue Star, with a difference of sixty times.

It has been seventy years since Rootless returned to the transcendent land in the Jiashen Rebellion and rushed to suppress the demonic qi, which is more than 4,000 years since the conversion of time.

Zhou Shenghou went to Nathan Island, and through the Qimen of the Wind Queen, he also opened the teleportation formation on the island, found the rootless life, and stayed here for more than 3,000 years.

After receiving the news about rootless birth, Zhang Yude rushed to Nathan in order to fulfill Zhang Huaiyi's wish, and also landed here, and has been staying for more than 700 years.

In their eyes, everything above the blue star seems to have long been buried in history and can never be recovered.

Unexpectedly, one day, I suddenly saw the old man from Blue Star!

And what made them even more puzzled was Zhang Taichu's face that had never changed, and that unfathomable powerful qi.

Zhou Sheng sighed with emotion: "Even if I wait for thousands of years in this place of origin, the cultivation realm will be stuck in a certain bottleneck and will no longer be able to enter the realm, let alone rejuvenate and rejuvenate ......."

"Why do you not only look old, Lao Zhang, but also make me tremble...... Isn't he a god? ”

Zhang Taichu shook his head: "I don't know, just move forward." ”

Wu Gensheng interjected: "I want to ask again, does the real person know the whereabouts of my daughter Feng Baobao?" Little Bao'er she? How are you doing now? ”

Rootless is now a drooping old man, and his face can vaguely see the chic and uninhibited of the past, and the essence of his eyes is flowing, with expectation, staring directly at the young Taoist.

Zhang Taichu said: "She has been looking for you, and now she is my disciple of Longhu Mountain, and she is also my personal inheritance, and she is living comfortably." ”

Rootless was immediately overjoyed, and the old tears said: "That's good, that's good!" ”

He said cautiously: "Dare to ask if there is a photo or something on the real person?" Can you show me? ”

Zhang Taichu raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you miss her so much, why don't you go back to her yourself?" ”

As he spoke, his eyes turned to the huge crack, and Zhengse said, "Could it be that you have been waiting here just to suppress this?" ”

Wugensheng lowered his head in shame and sighed: "It's my fault alone, but I have to trouble a group of brothers to suffer here together, I'm sorry big guy." ”

The old man sighed, and then explained everything, one by one: "I was originally from Xuncheng, and I once served as the lord of the city. ”

"And by chance, I touched one of the formations and landed under the tree on Blue Star Nathan Island."

"In the process of exploring this planet, I found that the life of Blue Star is the same as that pursued in my dreams, I don't have to worry about the threat of demons, away from fighting and fighting, there are green plants, warm sunshine, delicious food, ......"

"Everything about Blue Star appeals to me."

"I am determined to let my descendants live in such a place and no longer have to suffer from the demon war, so I returned to the Tree of Origin through the formation of Nathan Island, and then went to Xuncheng to take my daughter to live in the Blue Star."

"But it happened to encounter a first-level death tide, and it was delayed for two months, and in the process, my daughter Feng Baobao was also injured in the demon tide, leaving the root of the disease."

"As soon as the tide of death came to an end, I rushed to the Tree of Origin with her non-stop, and through it descended on the Blue Star... Unexpectedly, the remnants of the Demon Qi hidden in her body actually had an impact on the Tree of Origin, and even attracted the covetousness of the Demon Spirit, and these were only known when she returned later. ”

"After I came to the Blue Star, I took my daughter to my favorite Huaguo and settled her in a cave in the Qinling Mountains, that is, the Twenty-Four Valleys."

"I was incognito and wandered around, looking for a way to completely cure my daughter's injuries, but in the process, I met Moqi again... I thought that Blue Star was peaceful, but I didn't expect to be targeted by the demon spirit! ”

"I don't know if all this has anything to do with me as an outsider, but I feel guilty, so I plan to return to Xuncheng after treating my daughter and fulfill my duty."

And in the end, the only way to come up with it was to gather people, use the Qi game left by the Ziyang Zhenren, use the so-called dragon-making technique to obtain the original power, and give it to the other eight people, and then the nine people worked together to save their daughter...... Although she succeeded, Xiao Bao'er also lost her memory because of her new life. ”

"Forget it, let's think of it as a new life, I left her in the Blue Star, and returned to the Tree of Origin alone, only then did I find out that in the years I left, the Divine Tree was invaded by the Demon Qi... I knew that maybe all of this was caused by me leaving with my baby. ”

"I took my daughter who was pregnant with Demon Qi and left through the Tree of Origin, but the Demon Qi left some of it, and finally attracted more Demon Spirits......"

"I knew that the fault was mine, so I dealt with the calamity on the Tree of Origin and tried to expel the Demon Qi, but my ability was limited, and I couldn't suppress it with one person."

"Later, Zhou Sheng came, and he found me...... I went to seek the help of the seven city lords again, I wanted to finish the battle, but I didn't expect that the demon qi that polluted the divine tree was even more serious, and the demon spirit that appeared became more and more powerful, so I had no choice but to continue to sit in the town, and then Zhang Yude arrived......"

"A group of us has spent a long time on this Tree of Origin."

At this point, Rootless Sheng let out a long sigh again, and apologized again and again while driving the sea of Qi in his body and suppressing the Demon Qi that rushed out of the crack.

The rest of the old guys just shook their heads with emotion, and one of the old men spoke: "How can one person change the law of Demon Qi invasion?" ”

"Lao Feng, don't blame yourself, all this is already doomed, we old guys, it is the same wherever we suppress the demon spirit, it is no different from being in the city."

"It's just that this demon qi is getting stronger and stronger day by day, I'm really worried that one day, even I won't be able to suppress it, and at that time, the consequences will be unimaginable."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present also dimmed, and it became clear that the other party was not alarmist.

Over the long years, although they have continued to grow their cultivation with the power of the Origin Tree, the magic power that has emerged from this rift is also rising, and even faintly surpassing their realm.

Maybe another 10 years, 100 years...... No one could stop the catastrophe.

Zhang Taichu saw that everyone was pessimistic, and laughed softly: "It's not like I'm here." ”

"That's right, let me try to seal this demonic pathway."
