Chapter Ninety-Two: Zumu
"Hundreds of millions of years ago, the war of the gods caused the laws of nature to be chaotic, the weather did not fall, the weather did not fall, the weather did not receive, the wind and rain were not adjusted, and a branch of our tree clan joined that war because it could not tolerate the deterioration of the natural environment. ”
"As a result, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder fell in the Divine Realm and cut off the ancestral wood, and attracted the Heavenly Fire to burn it down, after which the Tree Clan was forced to fall into the human world and gradually declined, but it is still a powerful existence for many living beings. ”
"After the ancestral wood was burned off, the human realm and the divine realm were almost cut off, until the war of the three realms of the divine beasts and men. The deep and old voice of the old man Mugu echoed in the young man's heart, as if he had experienced endless vicissitudes of life.
"Without the guidance of the ancestral tree, the Treant Clan has evolved the way of reproduction in front of them over thousands of years to maintain its ecological advantages. I didn't expect that this also led to the disaster of extermination, alas, what a causal cycle!"
"And what about when there was Zumu?" the boy asked curiously.
"At that time, the tree people were all from the ancestral wood, and the seeds bred by the ancestral wood themselves had divinity, and they had natural rune arrays like the ancestral trees, and they didn't need to absorb the flesh and blood essence of those ordinary people to have powerful divine powers. The old man said with great longing.
"However, I had never heard of Zumu before, and I didn't know what it looked like. The boy scratched his head and told the truth.
"Well, the ancestral wood may no longer exist, and I haven't even seen it, but I do feel the law originating from the ancestral wood in you, and this is a power that all tree people can't resist. You must have an ancestral tree on you, or something related to it. The old man said excitedly, it was a kind of fallen leaves returning to the roots. The joy of returning to one's ancestors.
Could it be the old scabbard of the Qingfeng Sword?
Yang Rui suddenly thought of the Qingfeng Sword Sword left by Lu Rong, the sword elder of the Divine Sword Sect. The blade was significantly later than the scabbard, as if it had been specially made to fit the scabbard.
The blue-black scabbard looked old and cracked. However, from Yang Rui's eyes, it can be seen that some obscure ancient runes have emerged densely on it. He had studied these runes over and over again, but there had been no progress.
Thinking in his heart, Yang Rui suddenly raised his hand and took the Qingfeng Sword out of the ring.
I saw that the runes on the scabbard emitted a faint light, and an invisible field quickly spread around with Yang Rui as the center, like a bright star surrounded by a galaxy. The agarwood is overflowing, the sound is continuous, and an ancient breath from the Taishi era gradually spreads.
However, no one noticed this, and people only saw that the human-faced tree suddenly stopped killing. The trunk of the tree swayed gently, the light flowed, the leaves rustled, and the air was filled with aura again, as if it was purifying one's body and worshipping.
"The tree doesn't move!"
Everyone exclaimed, stopped what they were doing, felt the fresh aura, and stared blankly at the vision of the big tree. The human-faced tree, which had been slaughtered like a demon just a moment ago, now seemed to be alive. Holy and unblemished.
Someone immediately thought of evacuating from here, but found that the turquoise light curtain was still not open, perhaps this 10,000-wood enchantment was originally set to have no entry and no exit. However, now that the big tree has stopped attacking. For the time being, no one dared to attack the light curtain, for fear of provoking it again.
For a while, everyone didn't know what to do.
"Strange. Why don't you continue to kill that human face tree?" Cha Brownba, who was waiting on the side, stretched his neck and said, "It can't be that the human face fruit is ready to ripen." ”
Most of the teams that are still on the periphery have this idea, and they all cast their eyes on the three human face fruits. Gearing up, ready to move.
Gong Weihang didn't say a word. Sharp eyes swept over the dense ranks here, no one had ever seen the ripening process of the human face fruit alive, so no one could know what was going on, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong with this matter, and he couldn't say what was wrong.
"It's really Zumu! God bless my Tree Clan!" Old Man Mugu's voice became high-pitched and excited, as if he had regained his life, and he couldn't wait to immediately kneel on the ground, "I didn't expect Zumu to leave a branch in that catastrophe, and his divinity was not lost!"
The branches and leaves of the big tree are like bathing in the spring breeze, the oil is tender and bright, the rustling ground is shaking, and the aura in the light curtain turns into light and rain and falls on people's bodies, which is extremely comfortable, and even the wounds are healing rapidly.
"Alas, it is a pity that the process of turning the tree man into a big tree cannot be reversed, and I will die soon, and I will not be able to watch the revival of the ancestral tree. The old man Mugu suddenly remembered the current situation again, and the old man's voice was full of emotion.
With the change of the old man's state of mind, the human-faced tree suddenly stood still again, and the aura light and rain suddenly disappeared, looking extremely desolate in the reflection of dusk. Such a resentful aura made the people inside the light curtain tense their nerves, for fear that those man-eating roots would appear again!
"What do my predecessors have to wish? Feeling this desolate aura, the young man asked softly in his heart.
"I wonder if you can return the ancestral wood to the Tree Clan, young man?"
The old man of Mugu has lived in the world for a long time, and naturally knows how attractive a divine treasure like the Dao is to human beings, but he still asked tentatively.
"I'm sorry, not yet!"
The young man directly rejected the old man's request, which made his mood gloomy for a while, and the atmosphere under the tree in front of the man became more and more solemn, and the breathing of countless people increased, and his whole body was soaked in cold sweat, for fear of experiencing that hellish scene again.
"I promised the owner of this Qingfeng Sword to return it to the Divine Sword Gate, but when I explain it clearly, I will help you get the ancestral wood back. The young man's voice was firm and powerful, giving the old man Mugu a glimmer of hope.
"Okay, I'll thank the young man for the Tree Clan's Xie Lu first!"
The human-faced tree swayed again, and although the light and rain were no longer there, the desolate aura was swept away, and the agile aura resurfaced. The warriors in the light curtain breathed a sigh of relief again, and many of them were directly soft to the ground, a little unable to withstand such a toss back and forth.
"The old man still has something to ask the boy to help with. The old man seemed to think for a while, and then asked the young man again.
"Senior, please speak. The boy said.
The old man Mugu, who calmed down, his voice became old and low again, and said: "I don't know if the young man can help me protect the little princess Lingyi of the Wuyue Kingdom, alas, I watched her grow up, and I don't want her to be hurt." ”
"After my tree withered, I'm afraid Cha Brown Ba and Gong Weihang won't let them go. ”
"Please rest assured seniors, anyway, I also happen to have something to sort out with Gong Weihang. The boy said with a smile.
"Okay!" Old Man Mugu continued as he visualized the princess and them standing on the trunk of a tree in the young man's mind, "If you can return the two of them to the royal family safely, the old man is willing to give you a human face fruit, and there is also the secret of this undead human medicine hall. ”
"Oh, then I'll thank my predecessors for the gift first!" Although Yang Rui was sincere in helping, he would not refuse additional benefits, but then he thought of something, and asked in his heart: "But, how can I take the human face fruit in front of everyone?"
"Ha Lu Ha ......" The voice of the old man Mugu suddenly burst into laughter, that kind of laughter was cold and ruthless, making people feel their scalp tingle, "Are you really so easy to take this human face fruit?"
"After the human face fruit is ripe, one of them will first form a human body and fall off, and then the remaining two will be eaten to improve cultivation. In order to protect this process, the Ten Thousand Wood Barrier was present until the last Humanoid Fruit broke away from the trunk. ”
"If you want to snatch the Human Face Fruit, unless someone here is strong enough to break through the Ten Thousand Wood Enchantment!"
Hearing this, the young man suddenly understood that the peaceful appearance of the human face tree at this time was just an illusion, and if someone dared to snatch it during the ripening process of the human face fruit, it would immediately activate the Wanmu enchantment again.
Unless you have enough strength or good fortune, you will have to pay for your greed!
This is the law of nature, and no one can break it.
"Well, hopefully no one will ever rise to the idea of snatching the face fruit again, but it seems unlikely. Old Man Mugu sighed and said, "The Ten Thousand Wood Barrier will form a blood mist after it is restarted, and then you will take the opportunity to enter the barrier. ”
"You have Zumu on you, so you don't have to worry about being attacked......"
While people were glad that they had survived, Yang Rui and Old Man Mugu fell silent, as if they were calming down for the killing that was about to unfold again.
"The Tree Man doesn't have any ability to resist the Ancestral Tree...... Old Man Mu Gu broke the silence and continued, "So I also ask the young man to abide by the agreement and only take one of the Human Face Fruits, leaving the bloodline for my Tree Clan." ”
"Rest assured, the boy is not an insatiable man. The boy said in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Old Man Mugu's voice became cheerful again, because he had already explained the aftermath clearly, "Xiaoyou is a cheerful person, but it's a pity that we hate to see each other late, haluha!"
"As a gift for us to meet but are about to say goodbye, the old man will give you a chance!"
A huge stream of information poured into Yang Rui's mind with the voice of the old man Mugu, among which there were images and runes appeared, such a vast amount of information was indigestible for a while, it was the accumulation of the old man Mugu's life.
Yang Rui closed his eyes and experienced it carefully, suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched, and said with a smile: "It turns out that there is such a good thing in the medicine hall, and the seniors seem to have been prepared for a long time!"
Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to step into the Six Realms, but this time I sold it to Xiaoyou as a personal favor. Old Man Mugu said frankly: "But it doesn't matter, maybe the revival of the tree clan will depend on the help of Xiaoyou." ”
"Thanks to the seniors, the kid will definitely live up to the trust. Yang Rui said solemnly in his heart.
"Okay, okay...... It's a pity that the old man can't see the moment of Zumu's recovery......"
The voice of the old man Mugu gradually faded in the sigh, and at this time, people's exclamations suddenly came from the outside world, and the three white jade carving-like human face fruits stopped growing, and a red line gradually appeared in the flesh.
This is a sign of the ripening of the human face fruit, and people forget their fears and boil again!
(If you want to know what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.) (To be continued......)
