The immortal tree, another name for the human body, is just that the shape of the tree is reversed - the upper cerebral marrow is the root, and the lower waist, abdomen, legs and feet are the leaves. In order for a tree to survive, it must collect energy from the leaves and the foundation of life from the roots. For practitioners, the leaves that collect energy are the waist, abdomen, legs and feet, that is, the source of the essence of the spirit, and the roots of the tree that collect the foundation of life are the marrow of the head, face, and brain, that is, the origin of the spirit. The practitioner penetrates the spirit, which is the intersection of the upper and lower, such as the longevity of the tree, which is the tree of immortality, and it is also the alchemy method handed down from ancient times. In the process of circulation, due to the different qualifications and understandings of cultivators, various schools have been formed. The most famous is the Jindan sect as high as Zhang Sanfeng, and his "Rootless Tree" is a variant of the immortal tree method in the Jindan sect.

Dongzi, on the other hand, practiced another school of the Immortal Tree, which was based on the existence of the "Huang Ting Sutra" as the basic body technique, and the "Nanhua Sutra" as the general program of the mind, which was called "The Immortal Tree Diagram". Among them, the seven key parts of the spiritual integration of the upper and lower are described, and each part is divided into two categories: the body method and the mental method. Practitioners must go hand in hand with their body and mind in order to practice this technique. Otherwise, if the self-cultivation method does not cultivate the mind method, it will eventually fall into the flow of fantasy and madness, and kill one's own spirit; if the method of cultivating the mind does not cultivate the self-cultivation method, it is also a great mistake to have a solid yin spirit but not be able to rise to all kinds of functions. The key point is in line with the Seven Crystals Heart discovered by the psionics. This was something that Dongzi had never expected, nor did he expect that a high-level psionic like Sonsoni would come and read this book. Therefore, he unceremoniously added his own opinion in "The Immortal Tree Diagram" -- the psionic person is called cultivating the mind, but in fact, the focus is still on the astral realm in the outside world, rather than the sea of his own mind, which is the great disadvantage of emphasizing the outside rather than the inside! The reason for the origin is probably related to the acquisition of power, which is to blind the eyes and lose a broader perspective. In addition, when practicing, too much emphasis is placed on the guidance of the mind, and the soul is deliberately carved so that the soul is not at peace, which is a typical cultivation of the soul without cultivating the soul. It's like sharpening a knife. Although it is more and more grinding, it is also grinding less and less, practicing spiritual energy for a lifetime, and at the end of his life, he is still with mortals. It will even induce premature aging and early death due to overwork, inducing various diseases!

The abilities of psionic people all stem from the changes in the brain, and when cultivating psionic energy, what is practiced is the spiritual god, but the god is vigorous and resting. The inability to connect up and down is also a big disadvantage. Therefore, the correct method should be to exercise the brain and at the same time temper all the organs of the whole body, so that the spirit can be lowered and the essence can be raised. It is possible to change the nature of the psionic energy. "The Immortal Tree Diagram" is a more suitable method.

After Sonisin saw it, he suddenly sneered and said: "One leaf is blind, lame running?! Broken wings and flying?!! this guy has such a big breath! There are countless generations of psionic beings before and after the Heart of the Seven Crystals, and the seven are fused into one, and he can take care of the seven at the same time with one decision? Isn't that a big joke! Even the best Earth Jewel Dragon can't practice seven at the same time! Because practicing at the same time will cause great damage to the body, and only people who are tired of being alive will do this. This guy is a liar who doesn't even make drafts!" He threw the manuscript on the table and said to Faulco, "Don't waste your time on this trick of a liar. It's also a waste of time to carry it on your body, so let's go ahead and prepare other necessary items. Remember to keep a few more psionic items for self-defense. It's best to come back safely. ”

Faulco nodded and whispered, "Okay." I'll try to keep myself safe first. But when Sonisin saw that his tone was not resolute, he knew that he still had a hint of illusion about the royal family. Alas, young people can't pass the fantasy level, just like when they were young.

On the northern border of the land of Naintus lies a long mountain range of snow-capped mountains, which grow wider and wider the further north you go, and finally become a continuous mass of snow-capped mountains, and in the northwest of the endless snow-capped mountains lies the growing power of the Pophor Empire, a thriving empire, a powerful nation that is taking slaves from place to place.

As a result, the sub-giant tribes that were originally scattered throughout the Governor's empire had no choice but to flee to one way, or to the realm of humans. or flee to more inhospitable areas, where they live in harsh places. Sitting in a fur tent, Kanigan and his tribe were in a gloomy mood.

As a descendant of a hermit giant. He and his tribe had lived in the jungles on the edge of the Swamp of the Empire for generations, and although they lived a relatively primitive life, they also had a lot of contact with the outside world, and even learned the most popular lingua franca. But that didn't change their heritage and culture – a druidic culture rooted in an ancient tradition.

But this life, which had lasted for thousands of years, was also completely destroyed by the rapid rise of the Benzoy Empire, which fled again and again for decades. Escape from the Swamp to the mountains, and from the mountains to the highland wilderness on the border of the country of Naintus. It took five years. Pursued by the increasingly greedy slave search party of the Bentoi Empire, he had no choice but to flee from the plateau wilderness to the snowy mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles.

There are huge mountains everywhere, and the mountains are full of huge steel axe-like cliffs, and the towering cliffs are full of thick ice and snow like white iron. Like a blue-white cold light, the top of the thick armor of ice and snow gathered a large area of white mist and black clouds with momentum like waves. From a distance, it looks like a group of white giant beasts condensed between the sky and the mountains, making people feel the infinite oppressive power. And those who fly in the icy mist. The mighty frost griffon, as big as a woolly rhinoceros, sounded a loud and long chirp, which made people feel desolate.

On the precipitous cliff opposite, the six-legged monitor lizard raised its fierce head as large as a table slightly to look at this side, as if it was looking for an opportunity to sneak over and attack its own people. The beast knew that it was risky to sneak up on the Hidden Giant, but in this snow-capped mountain where food was scarce, it could get one! It glanced in this way for a while, then shrunk its oversized body, shook it on the white snow for a few moments, and then disappeared without a trace. Its temperatureless, ice-blue body is undoubtedly the best tool for concealment, and once it shrinks into the snow, it can completely merge with its surroundings, and it is difficult to notice. When he moved his body again, it must have been dark night, and at that time it would be able to sneak up on the tribal camp with its stout six-legged approach, waiting for an opportunity to take away a few young and old people who lacked resistance. It's so irritating!

This is the Great Snow Mountain. Hundreds of miles stretching for a vast group of snow-capped mountains. Only in this kind of place, which is full of murderous intent, can the more fierce and cruel officials of the Empire be avoided. Because the beast only needs a few pieces of flesh to fill its belly. And those officials have to spend the lives and pains of others to put up their chairs, whether they are pale blue frost griffins, or super-large six-legged monitor lizards in the middle of the snowy mountains. It's all about struggling to stay alive. Just like your own tribe. The only exception is the Giant Frost Bug. These are as cold as ice, as big as purple insects, and snow-white insects. I like this area the real king. A strong, oversized six-legged monitor lizard. It's just an appetizer dinner, even the young, careless griffins that fly low among the high cliffs. It can also be attacked by the Frost Worm that flies from the ground. With that it is enough to cut open the jaws of the strong gates. The griffons with rhinoceros were half killed in one bite, and it was easy to bite the recluse giants. At least. Along the way, 70 members of the Earth tribe died in the mouths of frost worms. This is much higher than the number of places that have been attacked and killed by six-legged monitor lizards.

The thought of this made Carnigan's heart ache. What will happen to the remaining 250 or so people in the future? Continue to endure all kinds of huge beasts that fly away and hide in the vast ice and snow. Or continue south. They live on the borders of Naintus, but their own tribe is extremely weak. If it is forcibly annexed by the state of Naintus. What can I do about it? Besides, it's a remote place. But there is no oppression by various regimes. You can even sharpen your clan with harsh environments. Keep the ancestral druid legacy alive. There is also a good in the bad. Why don't you stay here?

Just when both sides were thinking in embarrassment. Suddenly, I was awakened by a loud scream of killing pigs outside. Kanigan looked out of the hides. I just saw that the members of the tribe, who were taller than the brown bear, were being slaughtered by a water buffalo. It is probably a large omnivorous wild boar. They have long beaks and large jaws, like wolves. There is a row in the mouth, and the stones will be crushed if they go down! And the body is strong. The four hooves are stout and broad. You can hunt herbivores on the snow. This kind of tough land was originally a northern land animal. It was about a hundred years ago when it was exiled to the Western Continent. But it is only suitable for surviving in the snow and ice. Therefore, they gradually drifted to this vast land and the steep snow-capped mountains to survive. You can sneak to the foot of the mountain near the snow line to eat some young leaves, cut some fat plant roots to satisfy hunger. You can also run to the frozen snow mountains to chase deer, sheep and other things. Its status is only below that of the six-legged frost monitor lizard. It's okay to mix the land.

The Kanigan tribe was forced to run into some sturdy people along the way. So he forcibly took it. Use as mobile food. Now it's almost the same as eating.

Soon, the head as big as a bison was probably divided into dozens of bloody pieces. And the bloodstains were collected very carefully. Fill the intestines and cook them together in a pot - this is a cold wilderness where the snow never stops. Any food is formal. Don't waste a single thing!

The cauldron soon smelled of blood. It was the blood sausage, and the blood clot was cooked before the flesh and bones. At this time, it is emitting a strange fragrance. So several members of the tribe fished out a few delicious blood sausages from the boiling hot oil soup. Bring it up and offer it to their leader, the highest-ranking druid, Carnigan.

While eating the delicious and greasy blood-red sausage, Carnigan asked in a low voice, "I'm afraid I'm afraid I've almost killed a few of them, how many are left?" One of the mothers is still a few months pregnant, or wait for her to give birth to a baby and wean before killing, and they can eat it a few more times after they are fed, and they are very well adapted to this ice and snow climate. ”

Canigan nodded, and then asked, "How long can we keep the berries now?" The other party also responded softly: "The berries used to make the Divine Berry Technique are only enough for a month, and there is not even a single pine nut here, except for those branches that are harder than stones, and vines that are tougher than cow tendons." If you can't find a place where you can collect or grow plant berries, some people may not be able to survive. I heard that this snow-capped mountain stretches all the way to the edge of the border, and there should be many plants on the border that can collect berries, so that they can use the magic of magic to sustain their lives

Canigan muttered worriedly, "We don't know much about the country of Naintus, who knows if they will treat us like the Doge Empire?" In this way, our tribe can continue to pass on independently, and we don't have to become puppets of other tribes. ”

The other party was also a druid, and suddenly smiled: "Then we druids will become the leaders of small tribes, and you can't be the big leader now." You have to think about it, "I think clearly, I'm a druid and not a king, I just want to keep the traditions of my ancestors going." Everything else is secondary. ”

The other party bowed his head in a gloomy mood and was silent for a while, and suddenly asked very sternly: "I'm afraid it's very difficult to continue." Don't you realize? Many young people don't want to learn the Druid tradition anymore, they're already fascinated by the gods and priests! And our Druid tradition isn't complete in the first place - we can't even transform naturally!"

Carnigan exhaled with a heavy heart, this was indeed a problem. Because of their blood, they only inherited part of the druid tradition. The Hidden Sub-Giant, though nominally a branch of the Sub-Giant, lives in the same large area. But their history and heritage are largely unrelated. As a fairly independent race, the Hidden Subgiants have always adhered to a special druidic tradition inherited from ancient times, and this tradition has even penetrated into their bloodline, forming the innate spell-like abilities of every Hidden Giantβ€”the ability to change oneself once a day, detect magic, point north, make water, and magic berries. With the Water Creation Technique and the Divine Berry Technique, they don't have to worry about hunger and thirst, and with the Self-Changing and Pointing North Technique, they can also turn into large baboons, earth trolls and other slightly humanoid things in the vast jungle and swamp, overcome terrain obstacles, and of course, they also have various spells that treat moderate damage, and can save their lives at critical moments. Some of the higher Hidden Asian giants can even learn various medical techniques, such as disease removal, group healing, restoration, healing, and even regeneration, and Kanigan is the first three.
