Chapter 338

As far as the naked eye can see, the enchantment of Yongcui Temple covers an area of ​​about ten miles, and it is also covered by the tree canopy, which shows that the sacred tree is extremely tall and lush.

However, when Zhao Mi flew in the air towards the trunk, he felt that the upper and lower directions were transformed by mysterious magic power, making Zhao Mi seem to be galloping at high speed, but the actual direction was stuck, unable to approach the trunk.

"Huh? There are also experts."

Zhao Mi immediately understood that this should be the master who guards the tree of the gods. Seeing those mountain ghosts and woodcutters coming one after another, there are still many spirits hovering in the sky, condensing into countless arrows and falling down densely.

"It seems that those shamans in Yongcui Temple are the disciples of you." Zhao Mi easily dispelled the arrow light, and at the same time, using the Yingxuan lighting technique, he found that under the protection of the Yongcui sacred tree, the surrounding world formed a style of its own, It can no longer be described as a blessed place, but almost like a cave.

However, the Eternal Emerald Sacred Tree is rooted in the earth, and it does not wander between the heavens and the earth like the Zhenyuan Yufu.And under the sacred tree, what the naked eye sees may not be completely taken seriously, the azimuth and distance will be transformed and extended, which is much more sublime than the Hutian method that Zhao Mi has seen in the past.

"Although it is sublime, it is not invulnerable."

Zhao Mi came up with a plan, raised his mana, and pinched his fingers upwards. A glimpse of the Qingya fairyland appeared in the mirror of the Great Ming Dynasty, and the eternal green sacred tree suddenly trembled.

Since the Yongcui Sacred Tree is comparable to a cave, Zhao Mi summoned another cave to appear.Even if the Qingya Wonderland didn't really come here, but by using the fairyland and opening the heaven gate, the two caves and heavens collide with each other, and there will inevitably be huge turmoil between the magic test.

Now the Qingya Wonderland is controlled by Zhao Mi, and the law is added to him. Any shock and shock will naturally be reflected in the body and spirit.Fortunately, Zhao Mi's transformation of shape and quality has already achieved great success, the body of the fetus and the immortal, coupled with the deep foundation of scientific rituals and rituals, and the air of heaven and earth in every gesture is blessed, like a majestic sacred mountain, unshakable.

On the other hand, under the sacred tree of Yongcui, those beautiful mountain ghosts were obviously not directly hurt, but they uttered mournful sounds one after another. Together with the tigers and leopards they drove, they fell down one after another, tossing and turning on the ground, showing unbearable pain, as if five It's like burning inside.

As for those tree spirits who look like human beings, they are even more depressed, and the branches and leaves on their bodies show the appearance of withering and withering.The incomplete spirits scattered in the sky, almost disappearing.

This result is slightly beyond Zhao Mi's expectations. It seems that these mountain ghosts and forest spirits all live in symbiosis with the Yongcui Sacred Tree, somewhat similar to the thousands of true saints in the cave.The sacred tree itself was shocked by the impact, and they would also feel the pain, which is different from the fairy cave.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Mi was about to raise his mana again, intending to destroy the sacred tree with all his strength, but he heard a woman's voice in the wind: "Please stop, don't hurt my people!"

Zhao Shu's mana slowed down a bit, and he said loudly: "Get out of the way, you and I will talk face to face."

There was a slight sigh in the wind, and Zhao Mi felt that the power of transformation that hindered his progress had dissipated, so he immediately jumped into the light and reached the depths.

The high and protruding roots of the tree were like mountains, and when Zhao Mi really came under the trunk, there seemed to be a towering cliff in front of him, revealing a hazy brilliance.

A woman gradually appeared on the surface of the tree trunk. She was similar to those mountain ghosts. She also had pointed ears and long silver-white hair scattered freely.But her limbs were stuck in the tree trunk, and she couldn't get out. Zhao Shu could clearly sense that this woman had nothing to do with the Evergreen Sacred Tree, and could almost be regarded as the true spirit of the Sacred Tree.

"You are the Evergreen Sacred Tree?" Zhao Mi asked.

"You can look at it this way." The woman's voice was a little sick and weak, and the expression on her face was not very lively.

"My name is Zhao Mi, what should you call me?" Zhao Mi asked.

The woman replied: "The language of my hometown is very different from that of this world. You can call me Ruomu."

Zhao Mi nodded slightly: "So, you don't belong to this world?"

"Yes." Ruomu's sickness can't help but make people feel pity: "My hometown was destroyed a long time ago, and I fled in a hurry with the remaining people. After drifting for a long time, I met the gods of your world , settled after getting permission."

"God? You mean the God of Agriculture, the Lord Ji?" Zhao Mi was slightly surprised, but it didn't show on his face.

"Yes." Ruomu replied softly.

Zhao Shu remained silent for a moment, the god of agriculture, Jizhu, is not a god, but an ancient fairy family, but before he achieved immortality, Jizhu was also a king.

In ancient times, there were many tribes in the state of Kunlun Continent, and there was no clear distinction between dynasties. According to historical records, the Lord Ji was once elected as king by all the tribes of Central Earth, and his greatest achievement was to educate the people to identify herbs and grow five grains. Therefore, Later generations won the reputation of the god of agriculture and the master of Ji.

Previously, Zhao Mi only knew that the sacred tree of Yongcui was planted by the master of the God of Agriculture, but he did not expect that such an extraterrestrial visitor would be involved behind it.If you count carefully, there is more than one.

"Why did Lord Ji allow you to take root in the southern soil?" Zhao Mi asked, he was also very curious, the attitude of the ancient immortals towards the extraterrestrials did not seem to be blindly repulsive.

Ruomu seemed to be puzzled: "Your god is very gentle and kind, so he took me and my people in."

Zhao Mi was expressionless. If it were someone else, Zhao Mi would probably think he was talking nonsense, but Ruomu seemed to think that the "gentleness and kindness" of the god of agriculture, Lord Ji, was taken for granted.

It is reasonable for an ancient fairy family like Master Ji to have the great kindness and virtue to save living beings, but also as the king of a hundred tribes, Master Ji is definitely not a credulous and blind person.If Ruomu and her people might endanger the world and the common people, the Lord Ji would not take them in.

"But why do you want to help Li Chun? Let him control the world?" Zhao Mi asked again.

Ruomu replied, "Danying begged me, she is the descendant of Lord Ji."

"Yongcui Temple is the inheritance of the god of agriculture, Lord Ji?" Zhao Mi was shocked when he heard this, he naturally knew that Danying was the real name of the goddess.

"Yes." Ruomu, as his name suggests, has a dull and sluggish temperament.

Zhao Mi couldn't help but fell into deep thought. After meeting Jiang Yingke, Zhao Mi also gradually understood how to deal with the immortal family.If you don't know some things, maybe you won't be investigated, but since Zhao Mi already knows that Yongcui Temple is the inheritance of Jizhu, and Ruomu is an extraterrestrial creature accepted by the ancient immortal family, Zhao Mi can't be tolerated. He insisted on going his own way and forcibly felled the tree.

Zhao Mi even suspected that with the deduction of the Celestial Family in the sky, he should have expected that he would meet with Yongcui Temple, and how to deal with Ruomu and Yongcui Temple was another test left for him by the Celestial Family.

"Do you know why I want to break into Yongcui Temple?" Zhao Mi turned his mind and asked Ruomu.

"You are the enemy of Dan Ying and Li Chun." Ruomu replied.

"That's easy to say." Zhao Mi sighed: "If it is really the enemy on the battlefield, they would attack and kill each other, but now the Goddess Yongcui colludes with the Nantu Demon God, and even indulges in the blood sacrifice of living people. I would like to ask, is this Isn't this kind of thing common in your hometown?"

When Zhao Mi said this, the Daming Mirror transformed into many lights and shadows, including the situation of the living blood sacrifice outside the old man's mountain.

After a moment of silence, Ruomu said: "Different races, different customs, and I can't interfere with these things."

"Then there is no right or wrong?" Zhao Mi asked again: "Then Li Chun received your help to summon the ghost soldiers of the dead. You should be very clear about it. Do you also think it's okay?"

"After my people die, their souls will return to the big tree. If they encounter an invasion, their souls will turn into wild beasts and treants." Ruomu said, "It shouldn't hurt to let the souls of our ancestors reappear in order to resist the enemy's invasion."

Zhao Mi squinted his eyes and said nothing, he found that he had been a little negligent, and he really couldn't rely on reason to convince Ruomu, an extraterrestrial being.Because they were originally born in heaven and earth, and the law is completely different from Kunlun Island, and the habits of these mountain ghosts and wooden guests cannot be compared with ordinary people, so naturally they don't value human nature.

But also because of this conversation, Zhao Mi vaguely realized that when facing extraterrestrial beings with different origins, one should not be preconceived based on past opinions. What the other party thinks, wants and desires may be very different from ordinary people.

Just like the owl is bright at night and dark at night, and the rooster is bright at night and dark at night, different races in the world view day and night morning and evening differently, let alone different worlds and different species?
"Could this be the test that Lord Ji left for future generations?" Zhao Mi couldn't help thinking that there was no reason for an ancient immortal family like Master Ji to place the Ruomu clan in Kunlun Continent just out of kindness, and maybe there are still some of them. What a deep meaning.

"Let me ask you again, what orders did the Lord Ji have when he settled you here?" Zhao Mi said.

Ruomu didn't hide it: "He hoped that I could extend the roots of the big tree to every corner of the world, and then receive the souls of the dead. Unfortunately, it took me a long time, and I could only complete a small part."

Zhao Mi was startled when he heard the words, what Ruomu said immediately reminded him of the ancient Jiuquan prison law.Jizhu's attempt to let the eternal emerald tree receive the souls of the dead may be some kind of experiment and deduction.

And this should be related to the ability of the Eternal Emerald Sacred Tree itself to accept and transform the souls of the dead. Lord Ji must have taken a fancy to this, so he allowed the Sacred Tree to take root in the southern soil.As for why the Ruomu family was not settled in the middle land, it may be because the middle land has always been turbulent. If the war spreads to the Ruomu family, they will obviously not be able to protect themselves.

From this point of view, Li Chun must be blessed by the Eternal Green Sacred Tree to be able to summon the ghost soldiers of the dead.Li Chun's relationship with Ruomu is comparable to that of Zhao Mi's relationship with Liang Tao during the Battle of Difei Mountain.

"Since you said to bring back the souls of the dead, where will the souls of the believers who sacrificed to the demon god go?" Zhao Mi asked.

If Mu didn't say anything for a long time, Zhao Mi sighed and said, "Humanity, ethics, rules and etiquette are indeed not static. Since you came from outside the sky, I don't demand too much. But since you are rooted in Kunlun Continent, and you have been entrusted by the God of Agriculture, Lord Ji, don't worry." There should be nothing to do.”

"I don't want to be involved in the disputes of this world." Ruomu finally expressed his thoughts.

"In that case, why did you agree to Goddess Yongcui's request to help Li Chun?" Zhao Mi asked back: "Hundreds of years ago, when the Tianxia Dynasty opened up the southern land, it should be that you signaled Yongcui Temple to stay out of it, so that it was preserved. And you thought about it for a while, and the result is like this, I will personally visit the door to ask."

"I was wrong." Ruomu admitted it very straightforwardly: "I had a premonition that the world would face great changes, and I was worried that it would encounter another crisis of destruction, so I chose to take the initiative to intervene."

"Great change?" Zhao Mi immediately realized: "You mean about the fall of the Bo star?"

"The falling of the stars symbolizes the collapse of the old order." Ruomu said differently: "I found out that the person who destroyed the old order is you."

"Are you talking about the Tianxia Dynasty's laws and regulations?" Zhao Shu was not surprised that Ruomu saw through him, but shook his head and said, "It's not just me who can do it alone. Back then, I practiced the law at Jianjia Pass. , but completely wiped away the remnants of the previous dynasty."

"But you are also the one who establishes a new order." Ruomu looked at Zhao Shu, with a hint of curiosity on his blank expression: "I saw that the gods are trying to use you to weave a new destiny."

Zhao Shu frowned slightly: "First of all, I don't think I can establish any new order. This kind of thing has never been done by one person. Secondly, the immortals are not gods. In our place, there is a difference between the immortal way and the divine way."

"Really?" Ruomu said, "In my hometown, people like you are walking on the road to becoming a god, gradually stripping off their humanity, and only retaining the most suitable and purest divinity."

"I think you are more like a so-called god than I am." Zhao Mi was slightly displeased: "It's a pity that you are bound by this tree."

"This is my promise to my people." Ruomu didn't show any sadness.

"That is to say, I can threaten the life and death of your people?" Zhao Mi asked.

Ruomu didn't speak, and no emotions could be seen from her dull expression.But under the light of the Great Ming Mirror, Zhao Mi felt a little fear in her.

"Since you know that I am the enemy of Yongcui Temple, then you should understand the purpose of my visit." Zhao Mi said: "You Xiong and Jiuli are fighting on the front line, and Li Chun is blessed by you to obstruct him greatly." .If you choose to continue to aid Li Chun, I don't mind killing people here. But I don't want to do that. I can try to free you from the shackles of the Evergreen Sacred Tree without affecting your people. .”

"You...can you really do it?" Ruomu's eyes lighted up slightly.

Zhao Mi suddenly smiled: "Didn't you just say that I am a person who establishes a new order? Then start from you, and by the way, I will also give you a word-the tree of the embrace is born at the end of the hair; From tired soil; a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

"Is this the motto of the gods? I seem to understand a little bit." Ruomu said.

"Then do you agree?" Zhao Mi asked.

Ruomu said: "In my hometown, this kind of thing requires a contract, otherwise we can't trust each other."

"Then what are you going to do? Do you want me to swear to the sky and drink blood as proof?" Zhao Mi asked again.

"Extend your hand." After Ruomu finished speaking, Zhao Mi could only hold his hand in front of her in doubt, but Ruomu bent down and kissed the back of Zhao Mi's hand directly.

Zhao Mi's face was expressionless, but he sensed a wisp of subtle energy attached to his body, which could not be erased even if he cut off his palm.

"The contract has been fulfilled." Ruomu looked up at Zhao Mi and said, "I hope you can fulfill your promise."
