Chapter 458 Seedling

The sky is clear and the clouds are light, and the breeze is blowing.

All flat floors are paved with solid steel rocks.

There is a huge spiritual boat parked.

It is hundreds of meters long and more than ten stories high.

From a distance, it looks like a ferocious giant beast from ancient times, motionless and asleep.

Carriages came one after another and entered the platform where the spirit boat was.

It was busy below, with different spiritualists gathered in small groups, talking about something unknown.

The viewing deck platform on the middle level of the Spirit Boat.

Two figures stood high, admiring the lush scenery in the distance.

The woman among them was tall and slender, with a cold and beautiful appearance, which immediately attracted the attention of many people nearby.

The young man standing next to her looked ordinary, and his clothes were even more ordinary.

Not to mention that compared to the fact that the female companion is obviously dressed as a member of the family, even if he is randomly thrown into a crowd of people in a certain city, it is probably difficult to find him at a glance.

The two of them spoke without a word.

He didn't care about the looks from around him.

In a room higher up in the spirit boat, two men sat opposite each other.

On the low table in the middle, there were several plates of snacks and a pot of steaming tea.

"That tall woman seems to be a descendant of the Yan family in Chishan Lingyu."

One of them observed through the window, and added after a moment, "And judging from her clothes and accessories, as well as the logo on her sleeves, she should be the legitimate daughter of a certain house, not one of those declining concubines."

"Oh? What about the young man talking to her? Can Brother Feng Ying figure out what his background is?"

The other person put down the tea cup in his hand with a rather curious expression.

Feng Ying hesitated for a moment, then slowly shook his head, "You can't tell, he only wore a white gown with no logo on it, and his appearance didn't match up with the genius spiritualist who had a name in his memory.

So if you want to figure out this person's identity, you have to deduce and judge from the spiritual arts he performed unless you have competed with him in the past. "

Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled, "Brother Song Piao cares so much about them, maybe he has fallen in love with the girl from the Yan family?"

"My fair lady, a gentleman is so jealous. I would be lying if I said I couldn't be moved by such a cold and beautiful girl."

Song Piao picked up a piece of snack, put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

After a moment, he sighed, "It's a pity that it seems that she is already famous and married, but she fell into the arms of others early. I couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and suddenly I felt more excited."

Feng Ying helped the two of them fill up the tea and said nonchalantly, "The two of you are just Xiaojiabiyu from a remote spiritual realm. If Brother Song wants to get involved, just look for an opportunity and get involved. There is no need to worry too much."

Having said this, he turned to look out the window again, his eyes falling on the two people standing against the railing.

"As for the young man next to Miss Yan, you can first explore his background. As long as this person is not a disciple of the Central Spiritual Realm, I don't think you need to care at all."

"do not mind?"

"I actually care a lot."

A light flashed in Song Piao's eyes, "When I'm doing things, it's best for him to stay by the bedside and serve me. This is what I care about most."

Feng Ying was startled for a moment, then laughed, "Looking at that man, he doesn't have any spiritual power around him, and he doesn't live in a top-floor room with a better environment. I guess he's not a really powerful person, at most he's just an ordinary person. He is just a disciple of the spiritual realm who is slightly stronger than Chishan.

Since Brother Song has this idea, he will leave the investigation to his younger brother. By tomorrow morning at the latest, he will definitely give Brother Song a satisfactory answer. "

Lingzhou deck observation deck.

Wei Tao held his hand on the railing and looked far into the distance.

Yan Rong wore a light green dress, which made her figure taller and slender.

"What are you thinking about, sir?"

She secretly observed Wei Tao's expression and spoke carefully.

"I've been thinking about what the purpose behind that guy giving me such a big gift was."

"I originally thought that he wanted to take the opportunity to invade my body and then carry out the act of seizing the true spirit, but in fact that was not the case.

He turned out to be really dead. Everything from his body to his soul was annihilated. Every bit of it was gone. Only a piece of dilapidated ruins was left, which he personally delivered to my hands. "

Wei Tao withdrew his gaze and fell into thinking again, "And I don't believe what he said, nor do I think that if several cultivation paths go hand in hand, it will definitely lead to a tearing madness that is difficult to escape.

To take a step back, even if things are like what he said, and I will definitely fall into confusion in the future, then there is no need for him to sacrifice his life, just to lift me up, improve my level of strength, and speed up the path to confusion. schedule.

Isn't it good to be alive? At least you can hide and wait, and then jump out when I really get to that point, and appear in front of me as a winner. "

He spoke slowly, closing his eyes little by little.

Quietly, deep in Wei Tao's consciousness, a land of ruins appeared.

It is no more than a hundred meters long and wide, and its interior is filled with hot corrosion, as well as the aura of decay and decay.

But if you feel carefully, you can find a faint trace of vitality rising from the pit in the center of the ruins.

Although this vitality is almost invisible, it does exist, and it even slightly improves the overall environment of the ruined land.

The source of vitality is at the bottom of the pit.

This is a small tree only as thick as a cup.

Whether it is branches or leaves, they are all emerald green, and you can even faintly detect strands of spiritual meaning, gathering together and surrounding the entire bottom of the pit.

It is a sacred tree sapling taken from the Yan family.

It is also the only seedling in the world today.

At that time, there were a few old gentlemen who didn't agree, and wished that this behavior would be dealt with according to family law on the spot.

But after Yan Rong single-handedly conquered the entire clan and became the current head of the Yan family, everything suddenly became smoother.

Not to mention this sacred tree seedling, even the stored sacred tree fruits, which are more than a hundred times more precious than chalcedony, have become his daily food.

Wei Tao silently stared at the sacred tree sapling, feeling a trace of vitality escaping from it, but a trace of gloom appeared between his brows.

In the land of scorching and corrosive ruins, even if it roots deep into the ground, it cannot absorb enough nutrients. In addition, it has to feed back to the surrounding environment, so it obviously looks weaker and decaying than when it was first planted. .

If this continues, this sacred tree seedling may wither to death and die in his hands.

This is a token of love that I plan to give to my senior sister.

It is also a treasure that can be used to strengthen his own strength and help him repair the Cave Heaven Realm.

It would be a pity if it were destroyed like this.

Wei Tao thought silently, and couldn't help but hear the magician's last words in his mind.

In addition to the true surprise of the practice in the Cave Heaven Realm, there were even some contents about the void that were introduced into the depths of his consciousness.

A junior void walker travels through the dark void, enters different worlds, and plunders resources to strengthen himself.

Higher-level void walkers focus on understanding the original power of the world and grasping the rules of heaven and earth to leave traces.

The top void walkers have even managed to breathe together with many worlds, hoping to achieve the goal of transcendence and eternal life.

Therefore, at his current level, he should be between the junior and advanced void walkers. He can not only plunder resources to strengthen himself, but also perceive the origin and understand the rules.

Just like this sacred tree sapling, it is not only a kind of cultivation resource, but also a certain form of external expression of the source of spiritual power.

As long as he can plant it alive, it can be regarded as a decisive step towards his control of the divine magician's cave.

Time passed little by little.

Suddenly there was a soft click.

Awaken him from his trance.

Wei Tao opened his eyes and saw that the bottom of the giant spirit boat began to glow with a soft light.

"It looks like we're about to set off, you can go back now."

He said to Yan Rong, "Take care of the remaining sacred trees and protect my sect. These are the two most important things for you."

"When I finish my work in the upper star ring and find out everything about Zhang Ji, I will come back to find you."

"Sir, please rest assured that your will will be most thoroughly implemented."

Yan Rong took a deep breath and finally asked, "My subordinates just consulted when they came up. The room on the top floor is still available. Do you want me to go and help Mr...."

"No, the room here is just fine and can meet all my needs."

Wei Tao waved his hand, "That's not how chalcedony and the fruits of the sacred tree are spent. We are not yet rich enough to waste all kinds of resources at will."

"What you taught me, sir, is that your subordinates understand."

Yan Rong bowed slightly, turned around and walked towards the exit.

Only Wei Tao himself was left, still standing by the railing of the observation deck, never looking back from the beginning to the end.

Around the steel rock platform, the crowds and carriages began to evacuate.

Soon after, several observation decks were cleared.

Everyone returned to their rooms.

As time went by, the surface of the spirit boat lit up with increasingly bright light.

Until a slight vibration appeared, and all the light quietly disappeared.

The spirit boat also quietly left the ground at this time and slowly rose into the sky.

"Until the spirit boat flies smoothly, all spiritual masters, please stay in your rooms and do not walk around outside, let alone go to the observation deck..."

In the long and narrow passage outside, sweet female voices kept sounding.

Then through some kind of spiritual equipment, it is clearly transmitted into each room.

Wei Tao listened curiously for a moment, then stood up and closed the door tightly, and once again began to study the inexplicable cave realm.

The spirit boat rose higher and higher.

After a while, it disappeared into the clouds, and the scenery below could no longer be seen.

At this moment, a figure, like a ghost, appeared silently in front of Wei Tao's room.

He listened carefully, and after a moment he stretched out his hand and pressed on the door.

Accompanied by a soft squeaking sound.

The closed cabin door was gently pushed open.

He flashed and entered the room silently.

Light and darkness change instantly.

There was also a burning and corroding aura, accompanied by a steaming heat wave, which enveloped the entire person in an instant.

Above his head was a sky as dark as blood.

Underfoot were the charred ruins of a broken wall.

Everything is so magical.

It was as if a door on the spirit boat had been opened, only to enter a completely unfamiliar world.

"What's going on!?"

"Aren't I on a spiritual boat? Why did I suddenly come to this ghost place?"

"Could it be that I'm dreaming now?"

"Or is it just a hallucination caused by drinking too much spiritual wine during a banquet with Mr. Song?"

Feng Ying took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

He closed his eyes, then opened them a little bit.

Then he closed them again, then opened them again.

Then he slapped himself hard.

He even took out a short blade from his body and cut a wound on his palm.

Blood dripped down.

It was quickly absorbed by the charred ground, leaving almost no trace.

"My face hurts, and my hands hurt too."

"This is actually real."

"So, I'm not dreaming, I've actually traveled through time."

"Without realizing it, I just pushed open a door and came to a different world outside the star ring."

Feng Ying looked around, his expression full of confusion.

There was also a look of great disappointment in the middle.

The world he traveled to seemed too shabby.

The length and width of the space was less than 100 meters, and the edge could be seen at a glance.

The atmosphere was decayed and rotten, and there was no trace of life.

Except for the dark red sky like blood.

There was only the filthy charred ground.

You couldn't even see a third color.

A frog in a well, sitting in a well and looking at the sky.

Feng Ying looked up at the sky, and these two words flashed in his mind inexplicably.

If he was to be trapped here forever, he thought this was the best description of himself.

But after just a few breaths.

He had to overturn this judgment.

Because as time went by, he suddenly found in horror that his life was passing away rapidly.

His spirit became more and more depressed.

His skin became loose, and even wrinkles appeared.

Even his thick black hair became dry and white, no longer the same as before.

"How could I become like this!?"

"What is this place, it is actually devouring and absorbing my vitality!"

Feng Ying's eyes were horrified, his expression was helpless, and he staggered towards the edge of the ruins.

At this moment, he had completely forgotten about currying favor with Mr. Song of the Central Spirit Realm and investigating the background of the young man in the white robe.

All thoughts gathered together, and the only thing left was how to keep himself alive.

Only by living can there be hope.

Only then can we find a way to escape from this terrible place and return to the familiar and safe Star Ring World.

The distance of dozens of meters passed in a flash.

Feng Ying stood at the edge of the ruins, staring at the darkness and nothingness in front of him, feeling a great fear surge in his heart, making him cold from head to toe.

He raised his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth and nose, and a thought kept rolling and surging in his mind until it broke through the obstacles and quickly occupied almost all of his consciousness.

"When the ancestor of the family was still alive, it seemed that he said that the lower-level spiritualists cast spells with instruments, the upper-level spiritualists use mountains and rivers to form arrays, and the masters of the caves can open a domain by themselves and perform the domain.

So, if I am not mistaken, this should be the domain performance, the domain performance of the divine magician who opened the cave domain."

"This is actually the domain performance!?"

"I just wanted to investigate a guy from a remote spiritual domain, but when I opened this door, I actually broke into the cave domain of a divine magician!?"

Feng Ying stood there blankly, feeling confused for a while, and even forgot the fear he should have.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded from behind.

Coming from far away, they soon came close.

Along with it, there was a voice with some surprise and astonishment.

"Old sir, who are you?"

"Why did you appear in my home?"

Old sir?

I am not even forty years old yet, and I have become an old sir?

Feng Ying turned around woodenly, his eyes fell on the figure a few steps away, and his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.

This person turned out to be him! ?

The man who chatted with the girl from the Yan family on the spirit boat?

This place that seemed to be the realm of the cave was actually his home! ?

So, the real identity of this person is actually a divine magician! ?

Feng Ying opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say a word.

Divine magician.

These three words were like a mountain.

It oppressed him so much that he could hardly breathe.

In front of this person, whether it was himself, the so-called Mr. Song, or even the more noble figures in the upper star ring, there was no difference in status.

They are just insects and ants that can be easily crushed to death.

"Don't speak?"

"Or do you have something to hide and dare not answer directly?"

Wei Tao's face turned cold and he frowned slightly.

Feng Ying's legs softened and he knelt down involuntarily.

He didn't even know what he said.

He only knew that the man didn't let him get up, so he had to endure the weakness of his body and maintained the kneeling posture with difficulty.

Until he exhaled his last breath, he couldn't stand up from the charred ground.

"He died without knowing it?"

"I was just distracted and thinking about the problem. I didn't attack him at all, and this person has become a corpse."

Wei Tao came back to his senses from his meditation, looking at the dry corpse in front of him, and suddenly felt a trace of life, and sank into the open space in the center of the ruins.

Swish!

He flashed and came to the bottom of the pit in an instant.

The seedling of the sacred tree was still there.

It looked no different from before.

Only a bud sprouted from the branch, and the appearance of green leaves could be vaguely seen.

Swish!

The light and darkness changed quietly.

Wei Tao returned to the Lingzhou room.

It was already evening, and the four lights in the corners lit up, illuminating the entire room with soft light.

He drank the cold tea, stood up and opened the door.

He disappeared into the empty and silent corridor quietly.

"I thought that the little girl from the Yan family was going to the upper star ring, but it turned out that she just came to see someone off and had already left the spirit boat before the boat sailed."

In a luxurious bedroom on the upper floor, Song Piao lay on his back on a large armchair, letting the beautiful girl behind him massage his shoulders.

"Young master, don't worry, I have already arranged this matter."

The girl kept moving her hands and said softly with a smile, "When the Yan family girl left, I had already greeted Uncle Fang. Maybe when you return from doing things, there will be people coming to greet you." The Yan family girl is in the team."

"Oh, you still handle things properly. You are much better than those other clumsy idiots."

Song Piao laughed and held the white and delicate hands on his shoulders. "Speaking of it, whatever reward you want, Master, I can do it and I will never let you down."

The girl bent down slightly and exhaled softly, "I don't want anything, I just ask the young master to be gentle tonight, and don't..."

She didn't finish her words, she was stunned on the spot without any warning.

The corrosive and scorching earth, the sky as dark as blood.

They were originally still in the luxurious bedroom of Lingzhou, but they were caught off guard and moved to another place.

"Um!?"

"Why is it so choking and so hot?"

Song Piao frowned and slowly opened his eyes.

He suddenly got excited and stood up from the armchair.

His face instantly turned pale, and he looked around in confusion.

"Here, here..."

"If I'm not mistaken, it seems to be the realm of the divine magician!?"

"But at the time, I have never heard of any of the nine great magicians who died or slept in a deep sleep. I have never heard of any of them regaining consciousness recently."

At this moment, a figure quietly appeared in front of the two of them.

Song Piao looked intently, as if he was seeing a ghost, completely disbelieving what he saw.

"You, you are..."

His lips moved and he stammered.

Wei Tao looked at him calmly, a gentle smile gradually appeared on his face.

"I suddenly remembered the senior brother who rebelled against the family. He once mentioned the method of fattening people. I really thought about it and the world was widened. I was no longer afraid of the situation of raising the seedlings of the sacred tree to death."
