Chapter Ninety-Six: Change
Ling Yun watched as the Divine Tree seedlings gradually grew into a hundred-zhang tall tree with the blessing of his Divine Power of Creation. At this time, Suzaku said to him, "Enough, Your Highness!"
Hearing Suzaku's words, Ling Yun stopped and no longer injected the divine power of creation like a divine tree.
Ling Yun looked at the towering Divine Tree in front of him, the crown of the Divine Tree stretched out, and the golden leaves shone with glittering brilliance, as if the sun in the sky had landed on the earth.
And this sacred tree looks very special, when it first sprouted, there was only one single seedling, but after it grown, it began to fork from near the roots, and it grew into two trees. But the two trees are nestled against each other, and they look like a couple.
Ling Yun had also seen a tree that looked like this, but it was the first time Ling Yun had seen this kind of innate divine tree grow like this.
Seeing this sacred tree, Ling Yun couldn't help but think of the Fusang tree that perched on the sun in the legend of his previous life. Legend has it that the hibiscus tree is two sacred trees that cling to each other and form a pair like a husband and wife supporting each other, so it is called Fuso.
"But the leaves of the Fuso tree shouldn't be like this, right?" Ling Yun looked at the leaves of the sacred tree, which did not look like mulberry leaves at all, but looked like the palm of a human hand, with an unequal number of branches.
Ling Yun reached out and plucked a leaf from a divine tree and observed it carefully.
At this moment, in the abyss of fire under his feet, a sudden wave of fire surged. A deafening roar came from below the abyss.
The sound of the surging shouts was very loud, and countless flames swirled and spewed upwards. Pillars of fire swirled, standing upright towards the sky, huddled next to each other, rubbing against each other. Occasionally, when two pillars of fire collided together, the two pillars of fire suddenly emitted a roar, and when the pillars of fire that were crowded together were heard a loud bang, the pillars of fire exploded, and countless flames scattered and flew in all directions.
Before the flames could disperse, the pillars of fire standing around them spun like this, sweeping away the pillars of fire that had exploded.
Thousands of pillars of fire burst into the sky, and the scenery was truly spectacular. Thousands of fire waves, thousands of fire clouds, red glow all over the sky, all colors are mixed, it is really dizzying.
A river of starlight conjured up around Ling Yun, discharging the flames around him. On the Suzaku side, it was relaxed and comfortable, Ling Yun took the time to take a look at the Suzaku while resisting the flames erupting from the Abyss, and saw that he appeared in his original form, bathed in flames, and danced in the sky above the pillar of fire with the roar of the pillar of fire exploding.
Before the pillar of fire could rush to his side, Ling Yun saw that many pillars of fire had been fanned by his wings, shattering into countless sparks and flying all over the sky.
Seeing that Suzaku was safe and sound, Ling Yun relieved himself and turned to look at the divine tree.
The Divine Tree had just been born, and although he had shortened the time to grow with the help of his Divine Powers, he was afraid that the Divine Tree would be injured by the Flame True Fire that erupted in the Abyss, so he was now ready to help the Divine Tree resist the flames.
As soon as his gaze shifted to the Divine Tree, Ling Yun saw that the Divine Tree was swaying under the wrapping of countless flames, and the true flames surrounded the Divine Tree, and the red flames reflected on the golden leaves, lining the Divine Tree more and more brilliantly.
As the branches and leaves of the Divine Tree shook, Ling Yun saw that many flames were absorbed by the Divine Tree Leaves, in addition to the leaves, there were also countless Divine Trees' roots extending out, weakening the Flame True Fire layer by layer, and the flames that erupted from the Abyss of the Divine Wood were weakened by at least half of their power.
Seeing that Shenmu was safe and sound, Ling Yun was relieved. Shifting his gaze to the abyss of fire beneath his feet, the flames were still gushing, and it seemed that he would not stop for a while.
But his attention shifted elsewhere: "What is the place under the Abyss of Fire? There are so many flames spewed out?, and the name of the Abyss of Fire is so strange." ”
At this time, Suzaku confirmed that the Divine Tree would not be damaged in the flames, and flew down with peace of mind and landed beside Ling Yun: "The Fire Abyss erupts every once in a while, but recently, the eruption time interval in the Abyss is getting shorter and shorter, and I don't know what happened under the Fire Abyss. ”
"Since you don't know, why don't you go down and have a look?" Ling Yun glanced at Suzaku strangely, how could he not think of such a simple thing?
"It's not that I don't want to go down, it's that His Highness Dan Lingzhen forbids me to go down!" Suzaku smiled bitterly and said to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun was very strange: "Why, since His Highness needs to suppress the Fire Plain, this should be His Highness's territory, why don't you even let His Highness go in and explore this abyss?"
The Abyss of Fire was in the middle of the Southern Heavenly Fire Plain, and it erupted from time to time. Since there has been an abnormality during this time, then I have to go down to investigate, why don't you let people go down?
"I don't know!" Suzaku was also full of doubts, "I am the only one in the entire Fire Plain who has the ability to go down, but His Royal Highness the Red Emperor forbids me to go down and explore this Fire Abyss. No one can go down, so we don't know why this fiery abyss is so restless during this time. ”
"Maybe it's something taboo?" Ling Yun guessed, "But now that this Fire Abyss is so restless that you can't do it without investigating it." In that case, why don't you let me take a trip?"
"This matter is absolutely impossible!" Suzaku shook his head and refused, "How can I let His Highness be in danger? Since His Highness has helped me successfully cultivate the Divine Tree, as long as I let the Divine Tree continue to suppress it, I will report the matter of the Fire Abyss to His Royal Highness the Red Emperor and ask him to decide!"
Although he felt a little regretful, Ling Yun was not nosy.
Ling Yun and Suzaku were about to turn around and leave, when suddenly a loud bang came from under the abyss.
Bang Dong –
The sound like a heartbeat hit Ling Yun and Suzaku hard.
Before they could come to their senses, another 'bang' sounded, and the two of them couldn't help but turn white, especially Suzaku, whose whole qi and blood were churning, and it looked as if they were about to vomit.
Ling Yun's cultivation was profound, relying on the strength of the Chaos Body, and he was somewhat accustomed to this sound.
Seeing that Suzaku seemed to be about to faint, he hurriedly spread the protective divine light of the Yuan Shi Xing Diagram, and shrouded Suzaku in it, blocking the shock of the outside world, and Suzaku's complexion became a little better.
"What's that?" Suzaku looked at the bottom of the abyss in horror, as if there was something terrifying there.
"I don't know!" Ling Yun was also full of doubts about this. What is it under the abyss of fire, it can have such a powerful power, it sounds like a heartbeat, but this huge leap is completely beyond his imagination, there should be no one's heartbeat in the entire heaven and earth that can cause such a big shock, right?
Taiyi, Five Emperors, or something else?
With their great strength, it would not be surprising if they caused such a scene with their heartbeat alone, but it was impossible for them to put their hearts under the abyss of fire.
Ling Yun and Suzaku didn't know, but they knew that there should be something under the abyss, but they had no way of knowing.
