Section 11 The World Tree

After more than a month, Qingfeng and Fei'er, who were quietly recuperating from their injuries, had recovered. Qingfeng was still the same as before, and went to the front restaurant to listen to the news without incident, and then went to the backyard to share and discuss with Fei'er.

A month later, the battle ahead is still in full swing. The news is good and bad, the good news is that after determining the identities of the teachers and students of the colleges and universities left behind in Xilin Academy, the Beamon Kingdom directly expelled them without embarrassment. This made the two finally let go of the stone in their hearts, and they didn't have to continue to worry about the group of partners. The bad news is that the offensive and defensive battles of Xilin are becoming more and more intense, and in order to prevent the city from being mixed up, Beamon has implemented a comprehensive lockdown countermeasure. The two of them may be disappointed in their desire to return by land in the near future.

As a result of the war, the already thriving maritime business in the nearby mercenary city more than doubled. At this time, it is difficult to find one when going to sea. Fortunately, neither of them has any plans to return to school in a hurry, otherwise the two who have nothing to do with each other will probably not be able to leave for several months.

The Young Dragon and Phoenix Lists are drawn up by the Mysterious Council of Elders of the Free Cities Alliance, and only the living will be recorded. Qingfeng knew that Li Tiande must have his own channels to get the news, and he would definitely know the news of the safety of the two from now on, so he was not in a hurry to find ways to report the safety of the other party.

Anyway, they couldn't go back, so the two discussed simply walking around the Free City Alliance, and waited for the war on the Xilin side to settle down before returning.

——

There are four heroic cities with superior status on the continent of Moos, namely the City of Mercenaries, the City of Magic, the City of Thieves and the City of Smelting. These four cities are huge in scale and have a large flow of people. Together with the small cities scattered around Lake Baikal, the famous Free Cities Union is formed. The members of the Free Metropolis Alliance have no specific affiliation, do not obey any national orders, and have their own faction, which is governed by 12 Grand Elders, who have chosen themselves.

This group of elders resembling the Earth Emperor is elected every 10 years and is elected for a maximum of three terms. Many of the retired elders automatically joined the Council of Elders and continued to exert influence on the Free Cities Alliance in the shadows.

Lake Baikal, according to historians, is the earliest word of the gods that means pearl of the gods. According to ancient legends, there was no such endless lake on the continent. In the battle of the gods 10,000 years ago, the fallen gods fought so hard that the heavens and the earth were shattered, and finally the earth was dented and the water was gathered.

The recovered two went west along Lake Baikal, and after a cursory tour of the smelting city, they turned north directly and visited the most mysterious magic city on the mainland. As for the City of Thieves, the two of them didn't think they had enough to live, so they crossed it off their destination. It's not that I don't have confidence in it, but I don't have enough confidence in my own anti-theft methods......

Although there are many fewer idlers in the Magic City, places like restaurants are still reserved. For such a powerful news distribution center, Blue Point has always maintained enough patience. And the news that has been continuously gathered is also very good to give back to Qingfeng's efforts.

More than half a month has passed, and the battle in Xilin City is still not over. The two sides come and go, and they are very happy. Both superpowers are constantly increasing their troops, and a huge city has become a terrifying meat grinder, where countless heroic souls are laid to rest. According to well-informed idlers, the ground was covered with scraps of meat, corpses strewn all over the field, and blood was flowing. Even the originally vast sky has recently been reflected in a terrifying blood-red color.

As an important customs clearance port, the biggest impact of the three-month-long tug-of-war was nothing more than severing the land communication between the east and west of the Moose continent. A large number of merchants gathered in the nearest mercenary city, waiting for the ships to pass by. The volume of sea trade suddenly skyrocketed, and the usually leisurely pirates became more and more active.

Just a few days after Qingfeng and the others arrived in the Magic City, an explosive news came out again. The Light and Dark Alliance, which has been enemies for tens of thousands of years, actually joined forces to attack the United Emirate of Aladdin, breaking through several cities in one fell swoop. The United Emirate of Aladdin hurriedly mobilized a large army to confront it, and suppressed the coalition army, and the two sides are currently entering the stage of confrontation. For a time, the mainland was turbulent, and it was not lively.

During his visit to the Magic City, Blue Feng took time to go to the Magic Guild to register for a new magic level. By the way, they received the allowance they had accumulated in the past few months, and the two of them went to the restaurant for a full meal. Seeing that there was still no hope of going back in the near future, the two discussed it and decided to take a boat to the lake and go to the largest holy place in the Moose Continent in the middle of the lake.

Without too many twists and turns, the two soon found a small boat bound for the Holy Land at the dock. In fact, there are many such boats in the towns on Lake Baikal, which come and go every day, transporting groups of pilgrims to that sacred place.

The lake waves are light and rippling. The boat was like an arrow from a string, pushing away the ripples and heading towards the middle of the lake.

The water in the lake is steaming and mist. As the boat drifted farther away, visibility became less and less visible. Later, the change of time could only be vaguely determined by the light and shade of the sky.

After about ten days, the front of the boat suddenly became clear, and everyone seemed to have walked out of a maze full of haze, and their eyes suddenly opened up. The fog seemed to be cut off by an invisible force. If you look back, you will definitely see the invisible dividing line that is like a substance.

The boatman, who has been begging for a living in Lake Baikal for many years, is not surprised by the exclamation of these pilgrims who saw it for the first time. For he knew that they would soon be shocked again by the majesty of the landscape that followed.

He looked at the compass in his arms, adjusted his direction slightly, and the boat accelerated again, speeding towards the looming island ahead.

——

Seeing a mountain and running a dead horse, this proverb can also be used here. But the protagonist is not the horse, but the boat. The people who saw the edge of the island early on the island experienced more than ten hours of turbulence before they saw the true face of the island.

Looking up at the towering giant tree that could not be seen, everyone who had been prepared for it was really shocked by its majesty beyond words.

The branches of the giant trees are luxuriant, reaching into the sky. The thick roots of the tree are like dragons on the island, coiling into the lake. The terrifying trunk has long been out of the realm of being surrounded by several people. Roughly estimated by the naked eye, they are all tens of miles in size. In the clouds, the leaves that appear from time to time are like jade. A few rays of sunlight shining through the leaves of the trees reflected the green leaves the size of a boat. The heavenly Sanskrit sound that sounded on the island from time to time was solemn and sacred.

In fact, the reason why this place is a holy place is because of the existence of this tree of the world that carries the arduous task of repairing the broken mountains and rivers after the battle of the gods!

The people on the ship stood on the spot like thunder, and it was difficult to digest the shock in their hearts for a long time. The boat sped forward, carrying a full ship of pilgrimage into the realm of the Tree of the World. Because of the hidden reef and the huge branches that protruded from the water, the speed of the boat slowed down.

The boat slowly sailed into the dock along the waterway, and everyone finally set foot on the land again after more than half a month. Feeling the active elemental power of the Holy Land that was so rich that it seemed to be a substance, everyone was in high spirits.

Qingfeng felt the joy of the elements in the air. He couldn't help but think that if he practiced here, his progress would definitely be a rapid progress. No wonder it's called a holy place. It does have the greatest capital as a holy place!

——

The two men and one beast wandered aimlessly around the island. As an established mecca, the island has been fully developed. Tourists are full of people, traffic is busy, and you can see rows of shops and vendors everywhere.

The two walked slowly, observing the island where East meets West. It seems that above this, there is no racial barrier and no clash of beliefs. Orcs, Terrans, Elves, Dwarves, Dark Mages, and Light Mages can be seen everywhere. Some people still call each other brothers, and drink and talk merrily.

It's a peculiar island, without a hint of earthly smoke. Yes, only the sense of racial harmony during that peaceful and prosperous era 10,000 years ago.

There is no better word to describe the beauty of the Holy Land, and everyone who has been here does not want to leave easily. But after all, not everyone is a saint and will always be bothered by such and such things. Those who leave always want to find a chance to come back, and those who have not been here keep longing for this peaceful holy place in their hearts. Of course, it's not all peace. At least the place where Qingfeng is in front of him is not counted.

——

After several days of sightseeing, the two traveled almost all over the island. In between dinners, some useful or useless information is constantly gathered. Qingfeng peeled back the cocoon and discovered that this seemingly peaceful island actually has its crazy side.

Standing under the tree of the World Realm, Qing Feng suddenly felt his insignificance. However, he is not here to understand this today. Qingfeng led Fei'er through a tunnel with tangled roots, and soon came to a tree hole.

It is said to be a tree hole, but it is not. Judging by the size alone, it is wider than the opening of the general city gate. On both sides of the tree hole are a pair of majestic stone lions. Several big men lined up neatly, scanning the tourists coming in and out with a serious face.

On the top of the tree hole, a huge horizontal plaque hangs on it. Black lacquer gold powder, the words are as big as a cow. The iron pen and silver hook have a terrifying momentum.

"Babel Tower, bold enough!"

Qing Feng secretly thought silently, and a cheerful smile appeared on his face. Fei'er didn't have so many eyes, and pulled Qingfeng into it.

During their travels around the island, what they heard the most was the Tower of Babel, which was attached to the tree of the world. The 10,000-year-old giant tree is indeed huge, but it also leaves him with the rings of time. As trees grow, it is inevitable that many interconnected tree holes will be created. Tree cavities are more and more along it, growing higher and higher. It was opened up and applied by later people, and it can be regarded as making the best use of things.

Entering the tree hole, the two were immediately startled by the scene inside. Originally, the evaluation was very high, but who knew that when I entered it, I knew that there was a hole in it.

Looking at this spacious hall with tens of thousands of square meters, the two couldn't help but be speechless. You know, this is just the most ordinary tree hole in this giant tree!

The two of them couldn't help but have the urge to roll their eyes wildly......
