When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
Soon, the two sides introduced each other's identities, and finally confirmed that it was not only their respective regions where similar sacred trees appeared.
And no matter which entrance of the domain you go to the sacred tree, you will eventually meet here.
It was as if this sacred tree was the center of the entire world.
Lin Mu was a familiar person, and he quickly became involved with Luo Hanzhou and others.
Because of Ling Feng's relationship, although it was the first time they met, they had already initially established a trusting relationship.
This is very valuable in this relatively unfamiliar environment.
But they probably all believed that if they could become Ling Feng's friends, their character wouldn't be that bad.
And Rufeng gradually became curious about the "Brother Ling" they called him.
Is there really such a legendary figure in this world?
Although decades have passed, it is still so unforgettable for everyone. (PS: Regarding Ru Feng’s age, it has been more than 20 years since Ling Feng ascended to the Immortal Realm, but Ru Feng is only in his early teens. There is still a gap of ten years, but this is not a bug.
< br>
When Mu Qianxue and Chunzi Linghu made a deal, exchanging their own existence for the reversal of the cause and effect of losing their lives due to the evil bones, the seed of chaos, which was Rufeng, was not completely erased from existence because of it. trace.
Chunzi Spirit Hu saw this new power and regarded it as his new mission, so he transformed into Rufeng's companion spirit beast (Xiao Hui). This process greatly delayed Rufeng's birth process. Therefore, Rufeng's real birth time will be about ten years later than normal. )
As more and more monks climbed onto the sacred tree, many people around them had already passed Lin Mu and the others and climbed higher.
"Let's talk while walking!"
Lin Mu was impatient. Seeing that he was surpassed by others, he immediately started to climb up along the huge tree trunk with all his strength.
The rest of the people naturally followed closely behind.
An hour...
Two hours...
……
In this way, the group climbed for seven or eight hours, and the sky was completely dark.
Because the energy in their bodies had disappeared, everyone was already out of breath and exhausted.
"This sacred tree seems to be endless. How long will it take to climb?"
Du Feier frowned, looked up at the tree crown that seemed to have no end in sight, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes!"
Devela also nodded, "Although we have lost our cultivation, our physical fitness is much stronger than ordinary people. After climbing for so long, we still feel like we are standing still!"
"Maybe the opportunity hasn't come yet, so don't worry."
Luo Hanzhou comforted Devela for a few words in a warm voice, and then turned back to look at everyone, "Everyone is also tired. Let's find a place to rest for the night."
Anyway, this sacred tree is huge. Any branch is as big as a house. There is no need to worry about finding a place to rest.
When everyone heard this, they could only nod in agreement.
Although they all have various magic weapons that can illuminate, they are all exhausted after climbing a tree for a day with their own mortal bodies.
Not long after, the group of people found a relatively stable open space and set up a temporary camp, preparing to rest here for the night and continue their journey at dawn tomorrow.
However, at this moment, there was a commotion not far away.
"Grandma, I obviously discovered that fairy fruit first, how dare you snatch it from me? Are you looking for death?"
"Who do you think you are? Young Master, I am a disciple of the inner sect of Longjian Tianfu. Those who can possess treasures live here. Are you worthy of competing with me?"
Then, a burst of swords and swords were seen, and the two sides were already engaged in a fierce battle.
At this moment, many monks came over. Seeing the fruits growing on the branches of the sacred branches, they immediately rushed forward, ready to fish in troubled waters.
As a result, more and more monks joined the battle, and after a while, casualties began to occur.
Luo Hanzhou and his party looked intently, and sure enough they saw a green-glowing fruit growing on a hanging branch directly above where the monks were fighting.
The fruit is about the size of a fist, exudes a faint fluorescence, and looks quite mysterious.
In fact, these fruits only grow after nightfall.
Not long ago, a monk accidentally picked a fruit and as soon as he took a bite, he felt a huge spiritual power coming in like a tide.
The next moment, the monk's cultivation level was restored directly.
Not only that, it has even improved.
This person was originally a king-level expert at best, but after eating a fruit, he was directly promoted to the human-king level.
In an environment where everyone has no cultivation level, this person's direct recovery of cultivation level is a breakthrough. He is undoubtedly standing out from the crowd and taking advantage of it.
And as the monk resumed his cultivation, the others immediately became excited.
One after another began to look for the fruits of the sacred tree.
Less than a quarter of an hour after those fruits appeared, the sounds of fighting continued to come from all around.
In order to compete for a sacred tree fruit, all the monks fought hard.
"Boom!"
At this moment, a sword light swept across, and violent sword energy struck, but it was a monk who had already used the fruit of the sacred tree. With one sword, he directly obliterated more than a dozen monks who were fighting fiercely.
After casually killing more than a dozen monks, the monk who had recovered his cultivation quickly flew up to the branch and picked the fruit.
As the green fluorescence in the fruit penetrated into the monk's body, his cultivation actually improved.
When everyone in Lin Mu witnessed this scene, their eyes widened.
"The fruit of this sacred tree is so magical?"
Lin Mu swallowed, but saw that the monk who had picked the fruit had already glanced over with cold eyes.
However, when he discovered that Lin Mu and the others did not have the fruit of the sacred tree, his figure flashed and he flew away.
It seems that apart from the fruits of the sacred tree, he has no interest in anything else.
"Made, what a scary look, that guy may have gone crazy."
Lin Mu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The monk's eyes were almost no longer human.
"If this fruit can allow people to restore their cultivation here, it will indeed have a unique advantage over others."
Shi Haoxuan analyzed in a deep voice: "It seems that we have to find a way to collect some fruits. After we recover our cultivation, it will be much easier to climb the sacred tree."
The rest of the people also nodded in agreement.
Du Feier shook her head repeatedly and said: "Sister, have you forgotten the devil fruit? Although you can gain some incredible power by swallowing the devil fruit, you will eventually be driven by this power and become a slave of the devil. Those demon pirates were an example!”
Devela's face condensed slightly, "Indeed, the fruit of this sacred tree may not be a good thing."
"Captain Devela, I have a doubt. Everyone is fighting. If we don't fight, when they recover, won't we become fish on the chopping board?"
Tu Shanluan of the Tushan tribe couldn't help but question.
For a moment, everyone was in a dilemma again.
To fight or not to fight, that is the question. ……
other side.
Ling Feng and his party obviously encountered the same problem as Lin Mu and others.
When night falls, the sacred tree begins to bear green fruits.
Then, a bloody battle broke out directly.
The team formed by Duan Lingtian and Ye Keren was now divided into two factions.
One group of people believed that there was something wrong with the fruit and that it should not be eaten.
The other group advocates collecting more fruits and recovering their cultivation before they can climb the sacred tree as soon as possible.
The real opportunity must be at the top of the sacred tree.
A commander of the Jidao Royal Family's forbidden army had just taken advantage of the chaos to pluck a fruit from a sacred tree, and then planned to eat it privately while no one was around.
There is no doubt that the fruit of the sacred tree inspires the greatest greed in human nature.
Especially after everyone has lost their cultivation, they can restore their cultivation by taking the fruit.
Under such circumstances, who would be willing to make wedding clothes for others?
As long as he secretly takes this fruit, the opportunity to be the first to reach the top and ascend to immortality will be his!
Therefore, this forbidden soldier went behind Ye Keren's back and prepared to steal the fruit of the sacred tree.
However, just when the fruit was about to be stuffed into his mouth, Ling Feng struck the fruit with a palm and knocked it to the ground.
"There is something wrong with this fruit and you cannot eat it."
Ling Feng shook his head towards the forbidden army. Although he didn't understand why, he could feel an unknown aura in the fruit.
After taking the fruit, people will exude the same ominous aura as the sacred tree.
Because of this, Ling Feng strongly opposed allowing his teammates in the team to take the fruit.
Although Duan Lingtian and Ye Keren both agreed, they couldn't stand it. Others in the team would have other ideas.
"You!"
Seeing the fruit in his mouth being slapped down, the forbidden soldier was so angry that he trembled all over. He pushed Ling Feng away and jumped directly from the branch.
He didn't even want to give up his life, but he was actually unwilling to give up the fruit.
Below, many monks were already eyeing the fruit, like tigers and wolves, with green eyes.
The next moment, at least twenty or thirty monks rushed to fight for it at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, the imperial soldier who jumped down was torn into pieces by the terrifying light and shadow of swords.
"I told you...you can't eat it..."
Seeing a comrade die on the spot, Ling Feng's face showed a trace of unbearability. Maybe it was really because of himself that he killed him?
"He died of his own greed and had nothing to do with you."
Duan Lingtian walked to Ling Feng and patted his shoulder gently.
"This is his own choice, and he must bear the consequences himself."
Ye Keren also took a deep breath and looked at the other forbidden troops behind him, "If you are dissatisfied with my general's decision, you still have to fight for the fruits of the sacred tree..."
Ye Keren paused and said in a deep voice: "Then, just leave by yourself. I can restrain you for a while, but I can't stare at you every minute. Since we can't be of the same mind, there is no need to go together."< br>
After the words fell, the Imperial Army who came with Ye Keren were silent for a long time.
But soon, someone stood up with clenched fists.
"I'm sorry, General. The opportunity to change my destiny is right in front of me. How can a proud man like you understand? The opportunities to change my destiny are very few for me. Therefore, even if there is only a glimmer of opportunity, I will die. Hold on tight and never give up!”
After saying that, the forbidden soldier bowed in the direction of Ye Keren, then turned and left.
His words undoubtedly touched many other Forbidden Forces.
Then, one by one, the Imperial Guards chose to leave.
In the blink of an eye, there were only three people left who were still willing to follow Ye Keren.
At the Witch God Temple, among the ten disciples brought by Duan Lingtian, there was actually a companion with a look in his eyes that was ready to move.
"Hey..."
Duan Lingtian sighed softly, "If you want to go, just go!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Duan, for helping me!"
The disciples of the Witch Temple gritted their teeth and left without looking back.
The temptation of the fruit of the sacred tree has exceeded their belief and respect for Duan Lingtian.
Looking at the people leaving, Ling Feng couldn't help but wonder and murmured to himself: "Why, even though they know there is something wrong with this fruit, they still flock to it?"
"Aren't people in the world also driven by profit? They know how dirty and unbearable it is, but they still flock to it?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, "Everyone has his own choice. You can't decide his fate for others. Or maybe, is this really a God-given opportunity? You and I may not be right."
After finishing speaking, Duan Lingtian let out a long sigh, looked at the waning moon hanging high in the sky, which seemed to be covered with a halo of blood, and murmured to himself: "Tonight, I'm afraid it will be a sleepless night!"
……
The sky is about to dawn, and the eastern sky gradually spits out a touch of fish belly white.
On the sacred tree, there had been a whole night of fighting.
The strange thing is that after such a brutal killing, the corpses that should have been everywhere disappeared mysteriously.
It seems that it has become one with this towering sacred tree.
"No wonder there wasn't a single body on the road when we came..."
Duan Lingtian shook his head, "It seems that something is really wrong with this sacred tree. Is this really the legendary Jianmu of China?"
For the first time, Duan Lingtian had doubts about this sacred tree.
However, as the sky became brighter, the fruits of the sacred tree disappeared again.
Without the fruit, the dispute disappears.
Everyone continued on their way, but those who had obtained the fruit and restored their cultivation level jumped thousands of feet, and in an instant, they were able to leave the others far behind.
The difference between whether one has taken the fruit of the sacred tree or not is immediately apparent.
And after seeing the scene of those who swallowed the fruits of the sacred tree climbing up easily, I thought that tonight, the competition for the fruits of the sacred tree would definitely intensify.
Nightfall, for everyone, means the beginning of fighting.
"Keep on going."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. It was impossible to say that there was no imbalance in his heart.
However, he will not take the fruit of the sacred tree rashly, eager for quick success, and the result may be that he will lose everything. (End of chapter)
