029, elephant (above)

It took a long night for the tiger baby to regain his senses, and with a tired look on his face, he saluted to the divine tree and said, "Fellow Daoist, it's rude!"

Although the Divine Tree didn't give him any response, the Tiger Baby had already regarded the other party as a senior monk, and Fang Cai's move of cutting into his form with mana to wantonly probe was of course extremely rude under normal circumstances. Huwa sat down again in front of the Divine Tree, he urgently needed to recover his divine energy, and this sitting was three days and three nights.

When the tiger baby opened her eyes again, she let out a helpless sigh and took out four leaf-like things from her arms. Three of them are the leaf talismans given by Mr. Qing from the Golden Lion Nine Spirits, and the other is a dead leaf that the tiger baby picked up on the ground after the sheep Hanling left that day.

At that time, the mysterious Mr. Gao Renqing sent a gust of wind from afar, and a leaf flew in the wind, and when the gust of wind subsided, the half-withered yellow leaf fell to the ground. It wasn't going to attract attention, but the tiger baby picked it up and put it in her arms. After induction and investigation of the sacred tree, the tiger baby can be completely sure that the four leaves in her hand are from this sacred tree.

The three leaf charms were harvested decades ago, and the dead leaves in the wind had recently fallen. Mr. Qing attached the idea of the god to the dead leaf, and cast a spell into a gust of wind that drifted to the distant mountain, the place where the tiger baby and the two demon cultivators were fighting.

Hu Wa put the leaf talisman in his hand and rubbed it, concentrating on its vein texture, he had already realized that these three leaves were refined into heavenly treasures with the help of the Heavenly Thunder Strike decades ago, and then refined into leaf talismans by Mr. Qing, because Hu Wa himself was also good at electric light and supernatural powers. This shows that a few decades ago, this divine tree was not only not afraid of the heavenly thunder, but could even use the power of the heavenly thunder to refine the things of the original body.

By now, of course, Huwa could guess that the mysterious Mr. Gao Renqing was this sacred tree, or that he was a profound and long-lasting spirit of plants and trees, and this tree was his original body.

The tiger baby put away the leaf charm, and carefully sensed the withered yellow fallen leaves. It is the same thing as the fallen leaves all over the ground in this mountain field, and it seems that there is indeed something wrong with the original body of this Mr. Qing, but it is not like the end of his lifespan, but he has encountered problems in cultivation. When the tiger baby explored the giant tree with her divine sense, she also found traces of its thunderbolt struck in recent years, and even left deep scorch marks between the textures of its trees.

That is to say, after Mr. Qing encountered problems in his cultivation, some great magic spells seemed to be difficult to cast again, and the original body could not be hidden, and the thunder between heaven and earth could already hurt him. But after all, this Mr. Qing has a superb cultivation, and even if he encounters troubles, he still has the ability to fight against thunder. Otherwise, such a tree would have been shattered by strong winds or scorched by thunder.

At this moment, Huwa not only guessed that Mr. Qing was this sacred tree, but also guessed his identity in Ba Yuan - he was the legendary elephant sha!

Xiangsha became famous a hundred years ago, and his appearance was accompanied by the continuous war between the two countries in the area of the Western Boundary Mountain. Among the things in Bayuan introduced by the mountain god to Huwa, there is very little mention of the situation of the elephant sha, because the elephant sha almost appeared when Li Qing returned to the wilderness, and these two masters have never met.

However, on the way to Bayuan, the tiger baby intermittently heard some legends about the elephant sha, and was both admired and curious about this mysterious master. After coming to the Western Wilderness along the Western Boundary Mountain. The identity and deeds of the mysterious Mr. Renqing he heard about are completely consistent with the legendary elephant shas.

Especially after listening to the patriarch Wenjie introduce the description and appearance of Xiangsha, Huwa has already determined in her heart that Mr. Qing is Xiangsha, and his identity is a superb cultivation of the essence of plants and trees. And its original body is this sacred tree in the depths of the Western Wilderness. But Tiger Doll had to make one final confirmation, and he climbed up the trunk of the tree to the canopy that could almost overlook the mountains.

Before climbing the tree, the tiger baby saluted again. Because he sees the other party as a senior monk, this is stepping on someone's body to climb up. The tiger baby climbed to more than 100 zhang above, and then saw the canopy clearly. He did not continue to climb to the top of the mountain, but walked up a horizontal branch and stopped to look east.

The view here is very good, almost unobstructed, and its height is beyond the top of the mountain where the tiger baby came. The line of sight crossed the valley plains where the Shenmu clan had built their villages, and further away was the continuous ridge of the Western Boundary Mountain. According to the legend about the elephant sha that circulated in Ba Yuan, the two monarchs of the Xiangmur Kingdom and the Zheng Dynasty were caught by the Xiangsha and the towering tree in the depths of the Western Wilderness by the Xiangsha.

There are many big trees in the Western Wilderness, but only on the horizontal branches of this tree, can you see the distant ridge clearly, the tiger baby even has a sense of going back in time in a trance, the two monarchs of the year may sit in the position where he stands at the moment, and the elephant refers to the distant ridge that demarcates the border between the two countries.

Although this was more than a hundred years ago, the tiger baby stood here today, and in a trance, she seemed to see this scene, as if it happened a moment ago. The tiger baby sighed secretly, exerted the magical power between heaven and earth, and floated to the ground along the trunk of the tree, and there was no doubt about the identity of the tree in her heart.

The reason why Huwa happily agreed to the prayers of the villagers was because when he came here, he had already guessed that the sacred tree was Mr. Qing, and Mr. Qing was the elephant. Huwa not only heard the legend of Xiangsha in Ba Yuan, but now that he has come here, he has also witnessed what Mr. Qing did, which made him admire.

For such a senior master, Huwa is of course willing to do her best to help him. In fact, the tiger baby and Mr. Qing have not dealt with each other, the sigh in the wind made Yang Hanling explain the cause and effect of all things, and ordered Jiu Ling to send three rune leaves, and the tiger baby can be regarded as having received the favor of Mr. Qing, although he didn't even see each other.

There is only one question on the Tiger Baby's mind now - how to save this sacred tree?

In fact, Huwa really wanted to talk to Mr. Qing face-to-face, what happened to this tree, and what problems this senior encountered in cultivation, only he himself knew best. But Mr. Qing was obviously unwilling to show up, and he didn't open his mouth to make any requests to Huwa, so Huwa could only figure it out by himself.

Huwa has treated many villagers, but under normal circumstances, people don't know what they have, they can only describe their feelings and symptoms. The tiger baby has also repaired a lot of damaged utensils, and those utensils will not tell the tiger baby how to repair it. And at this moment, the tiger baby is facing this sacred tree, and it is the same situation.

Huwa first had to determine what kind of injury Mr. Qing had suffered, or what kind of distress he had suffered. At the spring sacrifice ceremony, he saw more than 1,000 people kneeling and chanting and praying, and he also felt a certain source of power formed by that sincere wish power, as long as he stood in the position of worship, accepted and refined this power, he could nourish the original god.

Then this sacred tree has been worshiped by the villagers for more than 100 years, and with Mr. Qing's cultivation, of course, you can feel this source, and condense and refine it to nourish and strengthen the divine soul. If his injury is in the Yuan Shen, then the worship of the villagers over the years is actually the best nourishment for him, and the tiger baby can't think of a better way to treat it.

Having previously climbed the canopy with divine sense, the tiger baby also saw the traces left by lightning strikes on the branches at high places. Dark black lines spread down from the top of the tree along the main trunk, like snakes drilling into the veins of the texture, and the bark of these lines is no longer visible on the surface, shining like gold and jade. Feeling that its texture is stronger than steel, he stretched out his hand and knocked on it.

This shows that although the Divine Tree has not been struck down by the Heavenly Thunder, part of its wood has been refined by the power of the Heavenly Thunder into a rare heavenly and earthly treasure. This is not a good phenomenon for a tree, because it is not on its own initiative, it is equivalent to hurting the original body, and if it cannot prevent its "injury" from continuing to spread, sooner or later it will deteriorate to an irreparable extent.

Then the tiger baby treats it as an ordinary tree, and tries to restore it from withering to life.

It's not easy to do this, I think that after that year, the longevity will be exhausted, and the tiger baby can only prolong his life for one year, but it can't fundamentally restore his youth. Mr. Ruoqing is not at the end of his life, but he has encountered trouble in his cultivation and damaged his original body, so that the tiger baby can truly cure the disease of this tree. This is also akin to a kind of restoration, or even a partial transformation and remodeling of its original form.

But the difficulty of doing this is also unprecedented for the tiger baby, not to mention anything else, just the tree itself is too big, it is simply a behemoth between heaven and earth. After the tiger baby's cultivation broke through the five realms and seven turns, with the help of the vein texture of the tree itself, she expanded her divine sense and cut into it, so that her divine energy and mana were completely integrated with it, and she almost did her best.

It's hard work to investigate, let alone treat it. This is not like a person suffering a traumatic injury, where there is a wound, the treatment of the partial, the disease of the tree to be cured is the overall form of the spirit. On the way to the Western Wilderness, the distance between the two demon cultivators chasing him was always thirty zhang away, because beyond this distance, it was difficult to control the sword talisman sacrificed by the tiger baby.

If you don't talk about the sword talisman of the imperial weapon, it is the usual method of the imperial object, beyond fifty zhang, the tiger baby will feel very reluctant to use the magic power of the imperial object. But when he climbed this tree just now, he was above Baizhang, and there was still some distance from the top of the tree, even if the tiger baby was now cultivating higher, it was almost impossible to carry out the Yuan Shen to completely refine this giant tree.

Moreover, Mr. Qing's cultivation is much higher than that of Tiger Baby, and the problems he encountered in cultivation may also be something that Tiger Baby does not understand. The tiger baby sat in the tree and pondered all night, reviewing all the magical means she could use, and also looking for methods and inspirational ideas for reference from all her previous experiences in saving people and things.

Mr. Qing had greeted the tiger baby with a gust of wind before, and he should be awake and knew that the tiger baby was sitting here in contemplation. But as he said to Jiu Ling, he couldn't and couldn't open his mouth to make a request for something like this. If Mr. Qing knew what Tiger Baby was thinking at this moment, I don't know what kind of emotion he would have?

There is another possibility, Mr. Qing may have known what the tiger baby would do. But this matter is too difficult, it is one thing for Huwa to think about it herself, and it is another thing to be able to do it, and Mr. Qing has no expectations for this at all, and he will not take the initiative to show up as a strong man.
