Chapter 854: The Origin of Yumon
The woods were rather odd, at least that's what Mu Yu thought, as he had never seen normal trees grow like this.
The trees around are very tall, covering the sky and the sun, each tree is at least more than 100 meters high, and it is more than 10 meters thick, as if you have come to a strange huge forest.
However, after seeing the trees controlled by the Blood Lotus just now, Mu Yu was already surprised by these trees.
Walking in the woods that shade the sky, the sunlight can't pass through, and it looks a little dark. However, there are all kinds of birds chirping in the forest, and squirrels jumping around on the branches, and there are not too many fierce monsters, and the atmosphere seems very peaceful.
Mu Yu was not wary of the old tree chief, he believed in the old tree chief, if the old tree chief wanted to harm him, Mu Yu would not be standing here now.
Mu Yu glanced at Xiao Shuai, who was lying asleep in his arms, and then couldn't help but ask, "Old Tree Chief, what happened?" I thought that Mu Youmeng didn't want to participate in the war, how could there be such a Blood Lotus Youmeng?"
This was what he had always wanted to know, because the blood lotus had a killing aura on its body, and Mu Yu remembered that this killing power was originally kept in the hands of the old tree leader.
The old tree chief sighed and said, "Most of Mu Youmeng don't like war, but there are some alternatives, in short, the situation is very complicated. β
The old tree grew in front of him and walked slowly, through a hill, and then came to a depression, and then Mu Yu saw a lot of Mu Yumeng.
Strictly speaking, all Mu Yu saw were people, because Yumeng was no different from people when he didn't use the Five Elements ability.
The clothes on these muyumons varied, some of them were coarse, but some of them were very smooth and varied in color, from turquoise to brown, various reds, and even strange blues.
Mu Yu is not surprised by this, because there are many types of trees in the world, Mu Yu knows all the plants, many plants are originally different colors, but turquoise is the main color.
Here are the tribes of Muyumon, and their houses are built on trees, at different heights from the ground.
Looking up, the lowest is more than 50 meters, and the branches of each tree are intertwined to form a tree house, which looks very natural and does not have any abrupt feeling.
There are also spiraling wooden ladders next to the treehouse, which spread to the ground one by one, and these wooden ladders are also integrated with the trees, and there are leaves growing on them.
Some of the thick branches also had large balconies that resembled tea-resting and drinking balconies, bordered by fences, and some children in green clothes running around the trees.
These children are innocent and lively, no different from ordinary Terran children, except that they seem to be more flexible, and they often pull a vine hidden between the branches of a tree when they are playful, and begin to swing in the air, like dexterous little monkeys.
After the old tree grew back, many Mu Youmeng couldn't help but greet the old tree leader, and when they saw Mu Yu, they were in awe, obviously because the breath in Mu Yu's body at this time was closer to the former sentence.
And when he saw Luo Yan behind Mu Yu, his face was full of vigilance, and even some Mu Youmeng showed hostile eyes, flames are the natural enemies of trees, not every Mu Youmeng has the ability to not be afraid of flames like blood lotus, these Mu Youmeng do not welcome Luo Yan's arrival.
Luo Yan didn't care about these Mu Youmeng's strange gazes, and he didn't have any superfluous expressions, just followed Mu Yu indifferently.
The old tree chief took Mu Yu and they walked to a quaint banyan tree, this banyan tree looked hundreds of meters high, he stood on the third floor of the stairs, Mu Yu and Luo Yan just wanted to climb up the stairs, but found that these stairs began to move up one by one.
The stairs that grow from these trees have their own consciousness and move very fast, and the branches that cross above will actively avoid them, not touch them, and then return to their places automatically when they have passed.
Soon the old tree chief led them to the door of the tree house in the sky.
"This is where I live. β
The old tree chief smiled slightly, and led them through his house, to a balcony behind the house, there were several wooden chairs on the balcony, and the old tree chief motioned for Mu Yu and the two to sit down.
"It's not hereβ"
Standing on the balcony and looking into the distance, Mu Yu was surprised.
Before they knew it, they had already reached an altitude of more than 200 meters, and this banyan tree seemed to be the tallest in this forest.
In the distance was a vast ocean, as far as the eye could see, but Mu Yu quickly reacted, it was not a vast ocean, but the territory of Shui Yumeng.
"Old Tree Chief, where the hell are we, won't Blood Lotus and those three Yumeng priests find this place?"
Mu Yu walked to the fence made of wood and looked at the scene above the river in the distance, where there were some igloos and water huts on the river, and some water Yumeng could be faintly seen moving.
"No, we are on the other side of Shui Yumeng, and the blood lotus will not cross the line. The old tree chief said.
"What does the other end of the water Yumeng mean?" Luo Yan asked.
The old tree chief glanced at Luo Yan and said meaningfully: "This area of Fulong Mountain is no longer what you think. β
"I thought Yumeng would be eager to escape from the Moyun Mountains, but I didn't expect you to come back. Mu Yu sat across from the old tree chief and said.
The old tree elder nodded: "The Moyun Mountain Range is a pure land. β
"You also have a Pure Land?" Luo Yan asked.
Mu Yu believed that the old tree grew, but Luo Yan did not believe it. At this juncture, no one would believe it, just as he wouldn't believe the other cultivators in the cultivation realm.
"Old trees can be trusted. β
Mu Yu knew what Luo Yan was afraid of, because the old tree chief was strictly speaking a priest of Youmeng, and looking at his calm and restrained cultivation, I am afraid that his strength was at least in the tribulation period.
The old tree chief was unimpressed by Luo Yan's rudeness, and said with a smile: "We left the Moyun Mountain Range only because of the trapped immortal prison, after returning to the Triple Continent, because many places have been occupied by cultivators, we were still very weak at that time, and we couldn't take it back, so life was not good, and although the Moyun Mountain Range lacked aura, at least we have become accustomed to the quiet life here." β
"I'm afraid it's just a part of Yumeng who is used to this kind of life!" Luo Yan said.
The old tree chief did not refute, but nodded: "Yumeng is divided into warmongering factions and peaceful factions, no matter which attribute Yumeng is, it is the same. In this mountain range, except for Mu Youmeng led by Blood Lotus, the remaining four attribute Youmeng are all peace-advocate, and the other belligerent factions have left this mountain range and headed for the Triple Continent to fight for a space to survive. β
"Since the Blood Lotus is in the Moyun Mountains, why did the other three Yumeng priests arrive so quickly?" asked Mu Yu.
The old tree chief pondered for a moment and replied, "It should be a teleportation array, although I don't know exactly what the other three Yumeng priests are doing in the Triple Continent, but I know that they will set up teleportation arrays everywhere they go. I think it must have been Blood Lotus who informed the three of them. β
No wonder the three Yumon priests had found this place so quickly, Blood Lotus must have signaled to the other three to come as soon as they were fighting the two of them.
However, there is a limit to the distance of the teleportation array, and this is the same for Yumeng's Five Elements Teleportation Array, so they should have gone through many transfers during this time, and fortunately, otherwise, when they had to face the four Yumeng priests at the beginning, Mu Yu and Luo Yan were completely helpless.
"So how did the new priest of Blood Lotus come about, and how did you get to be seized by him?"
Mu Yu was very puzzled by the sudden rise of the blood lotus, because Mu Youmeng's priest was obviously an old tree chief, and if there was a restless clan among Mu Youmeng, the old tree chief should not let it go.
"The appearance of the Blood Lotus was caused by me. The old tree chief sighed.
"You caused it?" Mu Yu was surprised, "You gave the killing power to the Blood Lotus?"
"The killing power belongs to Lord Jumang, but since Lord Jumang disappeared, this power has also been lost, and when I found this killing power, this power was sealed in a blood lotus, and the blood lotus was just a plant at that time, and it did not open the spiritual intelligence. β
The old tree leader saw that Mu Yu was a little puzzled, so he explained: "That's right, I said it, Yumeng is the same as the human race and the demon race in many ways. Just like mortals must have talent to cultivate, and demon beasts need to open their spiritual intelligence to become demon people, anything in the five elements, whether it is a plant, a flame, some stones, a certain kind of water, or a certain metal, will only be able to open spiritual wisdom and become Yumeng after the spiritual energy reaches a certain level. β
Mu Yu had also heard of the origin of Yumeng for the first time, and it was quite fresh, so he asked, "Will all plants become Mu Yumeng after opening the spiritual intelligence?"
"That's right, the Muyumeng people you just met below, in the words of your human race, they are all made of some pine trees, locust trees, ivy trees, cacti flowers, etc., all kinds of plants open up their minds. The old tree elder patiently explained.
"Isn't that more like a demon?" asked Ki Yu.
The old tree said: "Plants open the spiritual intelligence, it does not belong to the category of the demon people, the demon people are opened by demon beasts, and Yumeng is opened by things that cannot move at will, you can understand it this way." β
"What about the dragon vine?"
"Dragon vines are a very special existence, they are the darlings of heaven and earth, and they can only transform after absorbing the aura of ten thousand years, and they have long been beyond the category of plants. Similar to the Blue Dragon Demon King of the Demon Clan, his existence is too special, after transforming into a form, he will get rid of the form of a plant after cultivating for a thousand years, you should know that the Green Dragon Demon King is the perfect body of the five elements, right? Normal plants cannot achieve the balance of the five elements. β
The old tree chief was also amazed when he talked about the dragon vine.
Mu Yu had many questions in his heart, because all he had heard before was how evil the Yumeng Demon Clan was, but he never knew how they came about, so he asked: "If that's the case, then I can imagine Tuyumeng and Jin Youmeng, because there are many kinds of earth and stone, and there are countless kinds of metals, but what about water and fire?"
"Water Yumon relies on the elements, just like tea, well water, river water, stream water, different water contains different things, some water contains strong corrosiveness, some water can not freeze at low temperatures, and some Yumon opens his mind from ice, as for the fire ......," said the old tree chief.
"Anything that can be burned has a chance to turn on the Spiritual Mind to become Fire Yumon. Luo Yan said indifferently.
"Yes, including plants, metals, and even stones, like plants that are ignited by Mars, they no longer belong to plants, and at this time, fire Yumon will be bred from it, and many metals can also be burned, but we Mu Yumeng are very unkind to Fire Yumeng, because most of the fire Yumon comes out of the burning of plants, probably because they don't like each other. β
The old tree chief was not biased when he talked about it, but he was just stating a fact.
Luo Yan snorted lightly and didn't say anything, he was a human being, born in the way of a human race, and it had nothing to do with what the old tree chief said about opening the spiritual wisdom.
Mu Yu nodded thoughtfully.
The old tree leader continued to return to the topic of the blood lotus: "At the beginning, the blood lotus was used by Lord Jumang to seal the killing power, and the blood lotus itself was the purest ice crystal snow lotus in the world, which was transformed into a blood lotus by the killing power. After I found it, it was sealed by Lord Jumang, and I couldn't open the psychic mind, and after I unlocked the seal, I took away the killing power, and accidentally let it open the psychic spirit. β
"So after opening the spiritual wisdom, the blood lotus has become what it is today?" Mu Yu thought of the strength of the blood lotus, and really felt tricky.
"She was just a very lively little girl when she turned on Lingzhi, and I didn't care about it at the time, but after we left the Moyun Mountain Range, we repaired the teleportation array to the Second Heaven. I think you've been to the Twin Heavens too, right? In order to regain my strength as soon as possible, I teleported some of my clansmen to the Dual Heavens with a mellow aura, and at that time, I saw that the Blood Lotus was sensible, so I let her go, which was probably the most wrong thing I did. The old tree chief shook his head.
Twin Heaven Mu Yu naturally went there, and at that time, he and Qiao Xue met by chance in a piece of Tuyoumeng territory in the Double Heaven. No wonder I saw the Yumeng Demon Clan in the Double Heaven at that time, it turned out to be because of this.
"The innocent character that Blood Lotus displayed in front of you is all disguised?" Mu Yu asked.
"Yes, in fact, she has long been affected by the killing power, but she is very smart and knows that she is weak when she first opens her spirit, so she has been disguising herself all the time, and she has gained my trust. Relying on the aura of the double heaven in the double heaven, we quickly recovered, but the double heaven and the triple heaven are different after all, and many plants are quite difficult for us to control, so it is not suitable for us to live in, so we returned to the triple heaven. β
The old tree chief paused, and then sighed, "After taking her back to the Triple Heaven, trouble will begin." β
