Although Dao Sheng wanted to find out what happened to the Buddha, he had to admit that Lin Ze was right.

Compared with the transcendent opportunity brought by the Jianmu Divine Tree, even if the Buddha died without a place to be buried, it was not a big deal.

Therefore, after Lin Ze raised questions, Dao Sheng made a decisive decision, so that Lin Ze Zhuang Zhou still focused on cultivating the Jianmu Divine Tree, and the rest of the things could be put aside.

Adhering to the principle that more things are better than less, and if you can hide from trouble, Lin Ze is very supportive of the decision made by Dao Sheng.

The Dao Saint took in the changes in Lin Zezhuang's expression, and said indifferently: "The Demon Clan has provided a batch of Heavenly Essence and Earth Essence to promote the growth of the Jianmu Divine Tree, and the cultivation cannot be left unattended, Lin Ze, you should quickly take care of the seedlings of the Jianmu Divine Tree, there must be no mistake." ”

Lin Ze glanced at Zhuang Zhou and bowed, "The disciple obeys the order, and the disciple retires." ”

Then Lin Ze turned into a gust of wind and disappeared in front of Dao Shengzhuang Zhou.

After Lin Ze left, Dao Sheng solemnly said to Zhuang Zhou: "You have to pay attention to the matter of the Buddha, and if there is any news, immediately notify the teacher." ”

Zhuang Zhou was slightly stunned: "Didn't the teacher just say that he wouldn't track it down?"

Dao Sheng replied in a deep voice: "That's what I told your junior brother, your junior brother is only a young man, and he has experienced too few ups and downs, and he doesn't understand how much risk there is involved, so he doesn't know how serious the matter is." ”

"You have followed the teacher through several great tribulations, and you also have a deep understanding of some of the things that have happened since ancient times, so you should know what the fall of the saint realm represents. ”

"If you don't secretly investigate clearly, and deduce whether there will be a saint tribulation, so as to prevent it in advance, including you and me, I'm afraid we will all have the worry of falling. ”

Zhuang Zhou lost his voice slightly when he heard this: "The saint robbery, can it really be so serious?"

Dao Sheng's eyes were erratic, and his tone was gloomy: "It's only been a few years since the Great Tribulation was launched, how many Heavenly and Human Realms have fallen before and after?

"Saint tribulation, what's so strange? Throughout the ages, between heaven and earth, there are not only a few saints in the realm of you and me, but also those saint realms before ancient times, if they hadn't been robbed, where would they go?"

Zhuang Zhou's expression was awe-inspiring, and he bowed and said: "The disciple understands, he must treat this matter carefully, and secretly do his best to find out the truth about the Buddha's disappearance. ”

Dao Sheng nodded slightly: "The teacher trusts your ability and attitude very much, but your junior brother is right, he still focuses on cultivating the Jianmu Divine Tree, and he will investigate this matter in his spare time." ”

"Let's go, stay here for a while for the teacher, and calculate carefully, what is wrong with the Buddha?"

Zhuang Zhou bowed and said: "The disciple obeys, and the disciple retires." ”

After Zhuang Zhou turned into a butterfly and left, the Taoist saint circled around the Lotus Temple, his footsteps were light and heavy, and when he returned to his original position, a large array rose from the ground, enveloping the temple along with the mountain peaks.

Immediately afterward, the Dao Holy Form vanished, escaped into the void, and disappeared.

A quarter of an hour later, the shadow of the Dao Sage reappeared in front of the Lotus Temple, and carefully examined the scene, finding that there was no change compared to before.

Dao Sheng's expression was indifferent, he sighed secretly, and left again.

......

On the outskirts of Chang'an City, a house next to the wooden god tree was built.

Lin Ze looked at Zhuang Zhou, who came in a hurry, and said in surprise, "Senior brother came back so soon?"

An unnatural smile appeared on Zhuang Zhou's face: "Everything is mainly about cultivating the Jianmu Divine Tree, of course it is impossible to stay outside for too long, otherwise it will inevitably be scolded by the teacher." ”

Lin Ze smiled and said, "Senior brother, can you reveal what the teacher has told you in private?"

Zhuang Zhou replied calmly: "The teacher just told me that I should carefully cultivate the Jianmu Divine Tree, and I must not slack off, and at the same time be careful to guard against possible dangers. ”

Lin Ze smiled when he heard this, I believe you are a ghost, if the Dao Saint really confesses like this, where would he deliberately support him? Obviously, there is a "dirty" deal between the two.

However, Lin Ze did not continue to ask, since Dao Sheng refused to let him know, but left Zhuang Zhou alone, it showed that things had changed beyond imagination, and he might not be able to intervene.

Instead of knowing some messy things and wasting his energy for no reason, Lin Ze should pretend not to know.

If you really want to know, it is better to spend some luck to activate the Divine Power of Knowing the Destiny of Heaven and deduce the ins and outs of the matter.

So Lin Ze answered: "In this case, senior brother should follow the teacher's instructions and take over the matters related to the cultivation of the Jianmu Divine Tree as soon as possible. ”

When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he hurriedly called Lin Ze: "Senior brother, slow down." ”

Lin Ze turned his head and asked with a little doubt, "Senior brother, do you still have anything you want to ask and say?"

Zhuang Zhou coughed lightly and said, "Didn't the junior brother get a batch of treasures from the demon clan some time ago to cultivate the Jianmu Divine Tree?

Lin Ze frowned slightly when he heard this, "Senior brother, do you know what the demon clan gave?"

Zhuang Zhou asked rhetorically, "Isn't it the legendary spirit of heaven and earth?"

Lin Ze frowned: "In this case, Senior Brother can know that the number of Heavenly Spirits and Earth Spirits is limited, and the height that can be used to extraordinarily raise the Jianmu Divine Tree is also limited. ”

"As the saying goes, good steel is used on the blade, and this matter should not be rushed. ”

Zhuang Zhou's face was full of doubts: "How do you say this?"

Lin Ze shook his head and sighed softly: "Every time a pair of Heavenly Spirits and Earth Spirits are placed at the root of the Jianmu Divine Tree, the growth height of the Jianmu Divine Tree will also grow by one more zhang, and it will not be affected by the upper limit of the stage. ”

"The Tree is now in the second stage, and every four feet will remain the same until it enters the third stage. ”

It can be inferred from this that the upper limit of the growth of the Jianmu Sacred Tree will change with the height of its growth, and specifically, it will gradually decrease. ”

In other words, the upper limit of each growth is four feet now, and in the later stages, it may cost twice or more than three. ”

"According to this theory, the more you use the essence of heaven and the essence of the earth, the best effect, what does the senior brother think?"

Zhuang Zhou said indifferently: "It's not good." ”

Lin Ze frowned slightly and asked, "Why is this?"

Zhuang Zhou coughed lightly and said, "Regarding the spirit of heaven and the spirit of earth, I have heard a rumor about the spirit of heaven and earth. ”

"The reason why these two do not occupy the upper limit of each growth of the Jianmu Divine Tree is because these two treasures are originally formed by the Jianmu Divine Tree for self-growth, absorbing the light spiritual qi of the heavenly realm, and the turbid qi of the nine shadows. ”

In other words, these two treasures are part of the Jianmu Divine Tree. ”

"If you use it in advance, you may have what my junior brother said, the more you grow a foot back, the more difficult it is. ”
