Chapter 90: The Sacred Tree

The primeval forest is really worthy of being a primeval forest, few people set foot in it, all over the forest, continuous high mountains rise and fall, branches and branches, leaves and leaves, there are no roads here, no people, but everywhere is full of crises.

Dozens or even hundreds of zhang behemoths grow here incomparably densely, covering the sky and the sun, and the rotten leaves are densely spread layer after layer, emitting a strange musty smell.

Floaters the size of thumbs are constantly shuttling through the forest, fierce and cold-blooded pythons hide under the leaves, fist-sized poisonous spiders form a huge silk net to intercept the air, and there are huge poisonous centipedes, scorpions with a pale blue cold light on their tails, large toads mixed with disgusting pus, and fierce beasts running wild on the ground.

Along the way, whenever he saw these terrifying poisonous insects and beasts, Long Chen always relied on the power of his divine thoughts to quickly retreat, not that he couldn't defeat these things. For nothing else, he felt his scalp tingle just by seeing the disgusting pus of the toad. There are also poisonous insects and flying ants, one or two are not scary, what is frightening is the group of people.

Long Chen used his telekinesis to bypass the poisonous insects and run all the way. Along the way, Long Chen killed a lot of monster-level fierce beasts and poisonous pythons, and the beast element didn't have time to absorb it, but the alien beast-level didn't see it.

In any case, in this wilderness, the most important thing is to survive, and it is necessary to find a temporary habitat. But where do you set up your own temporary residence? There are poisonous insects flying everywhere, giant pythons circling, a little careless, you may be bitten by these poisonous insects and pythons, as for how poisonous it is, just look at these colorful can be imagined.

Long Chen walked in the dark and terrifying forest for most of the day, and finally came across a holy place. It is truly a holy place, and this is the only place in the entire forest where you can look up at the starry sky. At this time, the bright moon was in the sky, and the silver plate was hanging high.

Standing at the entrance, I saw the waterfall pouring down the opposite cliff like a silver belt, and through the waterfall, you could vaguely see a cave in the middle of the cliff. In front of it is a large clearing, overgrown with green bamboos, but in the center of the sacred place is a towering giant tree, its true height is not visible, and the waterfall is at the end of a clear pool.

There is a faint wisp of strange fragrance, which is no better than the smell of floral herbs. I don't know why I can't see any poisonous insects entering here, and some are just kingfishers flying high, so if there is a saying here, it can be said to be a paradise for birds. This situation is very strange.

Long Chen climbed a few times and went up to the cave. Walking into the cave, after passing a narrow road, it suddenly opens up, looking like a stone chamber. What's even more peculiar is that there are neatly lit torches at both ends of this place, illuminating the surroundings. Looking at the middle of the stone room, there are stone tables and stone benches, some daily furniture and beds.

"Strange, how did these torches burn? Could it be that there is still someone here? ”

"These are all man-made, they must have been inhabited, you can touch those stone tables and stone benches, it should be a long time ago." As he spoke, he mirage emerged from the void and transformed into a panther.

Long Chen listened to his words, walked over and touched the stone table and stone bench, it was full of dust, it seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time, but how to explain the torch? Long Chen walked over and took a closer look, only to realize that the root of each torch was inserted into a deep groove, and inside the groove was a bottomless black oily liquid, and the liquid emitted a burst of fuel smell.

"I see." Long Chen finally understood why the torch had been burning, and he also learned that there had indeed been people living here, as evidenced by the thick dust from the stone tables and benches. But when is this person here? But it can't be verified.

"Hehe, it looks like you've picked up a bargain."

"Did you pick up a bargain, or did it depend on my father's blessing." Long Chen slapped his ass along the mirage.

"However, there are a lot of doubts, such as the waterfall outside, which should be very humid here, but it is very dry."

"Yes, since I entered the forest, everywhere I have passed, there are poisonous insects and pythons, but only here and there is not a single poisonous insect around it."

"There are some things in the world that are far from being known to us, and perhaps it is because of some natural treasures here that cause this strange phenomenon to happen."

"Heaven and earth? What is it? Long Chen's eyes lit up when he heard the treasure of heaven and earth.

"What? Looking for a treasure? Where is your cultivation, and what kind of heavenly and earthly treasures do you want to find, you must know that wherever there are strange treasures, there must be beast powerhouses above the demon beast level to guard there, demon beasts! At the very least, it is also a cultivation above the Red Sun Realm of human beings, so you give me now to obediently improve my skills first, otherwise everything will not be discussed. The mirage poured a splash of cold water.

Long Chen stuck out his tongue and honestly cleaned up the stone room, and then he began to set up obstacles and the like at the mouth of the cave. He also knew that no matter what kind of beast it was, there was one thing that he was most afraid of, and that was fire, so he drew the oil from the stone chamber and lit the fire around the cave entrance.

"The tree?" Long Chen looked up at the ancient tree.

I saw that towering divine tree, towering into the clouds, I couldn't see where its end was? Faintly, the sacred tree towers into the clouds, flickering with a faint light in the dark night sky, is it a glowing insect?

Long Chen couldn't draw a conclusion, so he released his divine soul, but found that this divine soul was suppressed by an invisible force, and could only hover in a narrow space within a radius of ten meters, compared to the outside world, the divine soul could stretch dozens of miles away. Long Chen was even more surprised.

The mirage looked up at this towering ancient tree and thought about it. "This ancient tree is towering in the clouds, and the stars are shining in the clouds, is it the ancient god tree recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"? Legend has it that Jianmu is a sacred tree that connects heaven and earth, a ladder connecting heaven and earth? ”

Long Chen looked at the contemplative mirage and didn't ask, "Father-in-law, what are you doing?" So fascinating. ”

Mirage retracted his thoughts, he didn't tell Long Chen about his doubts, for fear that his competitive personality would cause unnecessary trouble, so he diverted the topic: "After walking for two days and two nights, don't you feel hungry?" ”

"Alright, I'll go make a fire now." Long Chen had made sufficient preparations when he came, with firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and so on.

"But your cooking tricks are so bad." Mirage shook his head.

"There's no way, I used to live a life without food, and it would be nice to be able to fill my stomach at that time." Long Chen grimaced.

"Okay, for my father, I'll teach you to cook a few daily dishes today."

Under the guidance of Mirage, Long Chen learned the practice of several dishes, there is a way that people are iron, rice is steel, this is the real skill of survival.

After a tiring day, the two rested, this place is really a holy place, there are mosquitoes outside, peculiar smells, etc., but here there are wisps of fragrance, and Longchen sleeps until dawn.
