Chapter 8 The Banyan Immortal Tree

In the original history of the earth, the dynasty before Jeongguk was called 'An'.

At the end of the An Dynasty, King Li succeeded to the throne, tyrannical and unreasonable, harsh tyranny, the people were miserable, and because of the great famine in the southwest, one place was opposed, the whole world was opposed, hundreds of volunteers rose up overnight, and the beacon fire burned all over China.

In the end, King Li died in the battle of the rebel coalition army to break through Nantianjing, and set himself on fire in his palace, but even so, hundreds of people spontaneously built a soul tower there, cursing that King Li will not be able to rest in peace after his death, and his soul will be scattered in heaven and earth.

After that, the rebel army fought internally for decades with low intensity, and finally became the most powerful, occupying almost all the righteous path inheritance in the entire Shenzhou, and established the Zhengguo regime in the Beitianguan in the past, which is now Tianzhou Tiandu.

And this aura world with immortal divine wood has a more mysterious history.

The original history of the earth, the nine emperors of the An Dynasty, the two hundred and forty-seven years of Guozuo, is shorter, mainly because of the filial piety period before King Li, the country and the people, the treasures overflowed the treasury, and it seemed to be at its peak, but once it was passed on to King Li, the savings of the three generations were squandered by him, and even 400,000 people in the three states worked hard to build luxurious temples and palaces in various places.

Now, from the perspective of Su Day, who knows a lot of transcendent knowledge, King Li's inexplicable tyranny and profligacy back then may have been an attempt to make some transcendent rituals beyond the times before opening the world, but no matter how much it costs, the outcome is bound to be doomed failure.

However, in this Shenmu world, because of the internal force, that is, the inheritance of spiritual power, from the royal family to the common people, they are all immersed in the aura of heaven and earth, and their lifespan is far longer than that of the earth - the An Dynasty here is five hundred and eighteen years old, if it is the original earth, this timeline is almost to modern times, but it is still the Nine Emperors.

There are often emperors who live for more than 100 years, and there are even those who spontaneously abdicate to the crown prince, go to the mountains and go to the mountains for decades to do asceticism, trying to break through the congenital death of the emperor - at this time, his grandson has been the emperor and grandson for 60 years.

But the most important thing is that more than 500 years ago, Anguo Taizu found an ancient divine tree seedling in the South China Sea Islands.

This seedling hardware is not added, water and fire can not be soaked, no matter what method can not hurt it, feeling that this wood is miraculous, An Taizu planted it in the mountains outside the Nantian capital, and built a temple - but who knows that in the era of Emperor Xuan, the sacred tree that was not an inch long in the original two hundred years, suddenly the day is one zhang long, and the night is seven feet long.

In the old man's slightly sad narration, the campfire crackled and the snow still howled.

Inside the haphazard snowdrifts, rows of unconscious people line up around the fire.

And one of the people who passed out in a coma, due to the internal force in the spontaneous operation of physical strength, clear the bruises, recover from the injury, coupled with the cold behind and the warm stimulation in front of him, slowly woke up.

Zhou Buyi opened his eyes, but he still felt a little swaying in front of him, which should be an intracranial concussion...... However, he had been fighting with the demon soldiers of the An Dynasty in various places for nearly ten years, and his spirit was tenacious, and he had suffered more serious injuries than this, so he recovered quickly, and his eyes were fixed.

"It's strange, wasn't I knocked out by the Na'an Chao Demon Guard, or even the Demon General?"

Then why didn't I die after being sucked dry?

With such doubts in his heart, Zhou Buyi heard Uncle Mo's rather happy voice: "Ah, my nephew Zhou woke up - alas, in the past few decades, I have been hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, even if I go out of the mountain, I am also protected in the righteous army, and his understanding of the changes in this world is superficial, and he may be able to explain it in more detail." ”

Although he knew that it was unlikely that he would hide the past when he woke up, being told by someone on his side still made Zhou Buyi feel shocked-he couldn't hide the past anyway, so he simply got up and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

Then he looked at the black-haired young man with a gun who had been fighting them to death, roasting a badger by the campfire with a scalp plucked and smeared with precious spices and salt! And his uncle also roasted one head, and the two of them added up to at least thirty pounds, and the two of them were chatting hotly while turning the branches. (20,132 kcal in total)

"W-what's going on?"

Don't say that Zhou is not easy, but anyone who sees this situation will be stunned for a while, he looked around blankly, and found that most of the team members were well placed around the bonfire, and their faces were not good, but at least they were all alive and well.

Even Monk Fang Hui, who looked like he was about to die before, now has a peaceful face...... Lying on the side with a calm face. Although the shattered face still looked a little sunken and knife-edged, with years of battlefield experience, Zhou Buyi could see that his uncle had already operated on him - but why did it heal so quickly?!

"Hey, the one over there."

Then, Zhou Buyi heard an unfamiliar voice. He turned his head to look, only to see that the young man, who had beaten them all down before, and who had been quick and easy to shoot, had torn a piece of meat from his badger, skewered a stick, and threw it at him. (980 kcal)

After all, he had learned martial arts, even if he was at a loss, Zhou Buyi still took the skewer, he looked down at the skewer in his hand, and then looked up at the young man who was staring at him, as if he was waiting for something to say.

"Uh...... Thanks, thanks? ”

After hearing this thanks, the black-haired young man nodded with satisfaction, then lowered his head and continued to roast his meat: "No thanks—this meat is a reward, Mo Lao is tired, you have to continue to tell history for me."

……

"In just a few years, the sacred tree has been far taller than the mountain, and when its falling aerial roots spread and grow, it even destroyed several mountain peaks, and from a distance, it looks like a sacred mountain supporting the heavens and the earth, and the canopy of the tree goes straight to the clouds, which can really be said to be connected to the heavens and the earth."

Zhou Buyi has a good face, that is, he is only twenty-four years old, and he is already a little old, his eyebrows reveal a sense of vicissitudes that have experienced too many things, and his black hair is even more snow-white.

After eating the barbecue, when he said this for Su Sun, most of the people in the original team had already woken up.

Among these people, it is not that they still want to continue to attack Su Sun, but they were soon stopped by Zhou Buyi and Mo Ganxiu teamed up - let's not talk about whether Su Sun is disguised goodwill, now a group of people are injured and injured, no one can beat him, wouldn't he be looking for death if he did it at will.

"Next, there is the origin of this Shenzhou chaos now, Brother Su."

"Well, go on, I'm interested."

Even the most seriously injured warrior monk Fang Hui had already woken up at this time, and was being taken care of by Liu Xizhao, a female swordsman who was also quite good at medical skills, while Zhou Buyi was writing with a sword in the snow, drawing all kinds of schematic diagrams, and explaining to Su Ri, who had a serious face and listened carefully.

After the sacred tree was connected to the heavens and the earth, many strange beasts and spiritual plants were born and appeared in the heavens and the earth.

Among them, there are Zhu Guo, which can increase strength, Lingginseng, which can prolong life, and black moss, which can purify filth, and Cangye that can enrich aura.

Alien beasts are associated with spirit plants, and even a special spirit plant itself, just like the centipede of pure water, like a cicada, or pure water, or storage of light, contributing to the sacred tree.

The royal family of the An Dynasty was naturally very interested in the Divine Tree, and the power of the world was used to study the Divine Tree, trying to find a way to 'immortalize and immortalize' from it. ”

"Decades ago, the Demon Emperor was found." Mo Ganxiu on the side interjected softly, interrupting Zhou Buyi's explanation.

Because he was a first-hand witness of that history.

"[Banyan Immortal Tree] - this is the name they gave to the sacred tree."

[Banyan Immortal Tree], strange, but very correct name.

There are clouds in ancient books - on the top of the Lingqiu, on the side of the giant sea.

The peach prolongs life, and the banyan tree grows into a forest, which coincides with the two characteristics of the sacred tree.

Although the Banyan Immortal Tree does not have a peach, if you cut off the delicate air roots that have just grown out of it and put it into your own flesh and blood, you can obtain the immortal power of the Divine Tree, and since then you will have a long lifespan, even if you are injured, you can heal quickly, and even recreate broken limbs!

However, this immortal power comes at a cost - the Divine Tree bloodline, which is named 'Immortal Root', needs to absorb a large amount of flesh and blood aura every time it prolongs its life and heals itself.

It's okay to say that the aura is just a matter of slowly absorbing savings between heaven and earth, but that flesh and blood is not available everywhere, and perhaps because the human soul is the strongest reason, the power obtained by absorbing human flesh and blood from the immortal root is far more than absorbing a hundred cows, sheep, pigs and livestock.

The princes and doctors of the Manchu Dynasty were all implanted with the 'Immortal Root', and the entire forbidden army and even the people of Nantianjing also got a trace of the bloodline derived from the juice of the divine tree, and the world was in chaos because of this.

"After the Demon Emperor obtained the immortal root, he was still not satisfied, he wanted to transcend the limit of Shouyuan and become an immortal, immortal and immortal existence - he prepared countless secret rituals, and wanted to incarnate as the top of the blood of the Divine Tree, the Dragon of the Divine Tree 'Pan Dragon'!"

Saying this, Zhou Buyi put away his sword and sighed, but judging from the green tendons on the back of his hand, he only barely suppressed the anger in his heart: "At first, it was just cattle, sheep and animals, and then even chickens, ducks and fish were not spared, and after consuming the meat and livestock in the entire south, the Demon Emperor and his undead demon soldiers stretched out their hands to their people. ”

"The Demon Emperor is very smart, his soldiers come from Nantianjing and several surrounding states and counties, so he generously gave the Shenmu bloodline, and gave the local officials and gentry immortal roots, his core soldiers are not afraid of death, and his core people worship him as a god - and the rest are just livestock that need to be sacrificed for his great cause of immortality."

The wind is cold.

For decades, the undead demon soldiers crisscrossed Shenzhou, the world was ruined, the people were not able to make a living, and the An Dynasty, which thought that the current God Court, ruled rottenly, brutalized civilians, and worshiped flesh and bones.

At least tens of millions of people have died as a result, and nearly 100 million people have been displaced and forced to relocate—and the vast majority of those who have died have turned into nutrients for the Banyan Immortal Tree, giving birth to more demonic spirit plants, and the remaining small part has also brought great power to all the rulers at the top of the An Dynasty.

"I waited for the hundred alliances to resist at the very beginning, and for a while, even after suppressing the Demon Emperor and his demon army back to Nanjiang Tianguan, they almost attacked Nantianjing - but the other party really has the power of immortality, and can also drive all kinds of demon spirit plants, if it weren't for the martial artist to use internal force to peel off the immortal roots, and then use fire and thunder to dissolve the blood of the divine wood, those monsters would not die even if they were cut off their heads and feet, and their hearts would not have died."

At this moment, the other thirteen members of the entire team followed behind Zhou Buyi, and the atmosphere was sad and heroic staring at the handwriting and sketches that were gradually hidden by the heavy snow in the snow.

Even with the support of the people, it can't consume those undead demon soldiers - especially those undead demon generals who are full of internal qi, with no fear of life and death, exchanging injuries for injuries, and matching special weapon techniques, they can easily deal with two or three martial artists of the same level, plus they are immortal in a hundred battles, and they are experienced, if they form a formation again, they are really unstoppable.

"So, in order to kill the generals of the Demon Dynasty who have immortal power in front of the battle, as well as the royal bloodline of the princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty; Hundreds of schools of thought are united, intending to gather countless spiritual objects and create a divine weapon that is enough to kill the immortal [Blade of Annihilation]! ”

"And our task is to escort one of the core materials of the divine soldier, a relic of an ancient divine monk to the place where the divine soldier was cast, 'Taibai Volcano'."
