Moon Emperor

Chapter 451 Enlightenment Under the Tree
  The so-called "Zhi Ren Zhi Ma" refers to the plant and tree creatures that can only take shape after Ganoderma lucidum has been around for more than a thousand years. They may be in the shape of humans, horses, or other creatures, and they often appear in Deep in the mountains and old forests.

Some mortals have even seen them traveling in bronze carriages, looking like emperors on a tour, with various mountain monsters following behind them.

There are many records about such strange creatures in "Baopuzi", "Shenyi Jing" and "Jianhu Collection". Ancient books also say that eating meat mushrooms for thousands of years can prolong life and achieve enlightenment and become an immortal.

What Su Yan didn't expect was that the fruit on this pear fairy tree seemed to be born with some spiritual wisdom due to its age.

Although their bodies have never been transformed into human or horse forms, the fairy fruits have already given birth to spiritual beings. It may take another one or two thousand years before they can truly transform and survive independently from their mother's body.

Of course, if Su Yan eats them one by one, the two cross pears will naturally lose the possibility of "evolving".

His biggest doubt now is, how many of these fairy trees have produced spiritual fairy fruits?

Su Yan simply looked at the little man and pony who were worshiping in front of him, "How many other people are as spiritual as you?"

The little man was also very innocent and simple. When he heard this question, he pointed out the stones to Su Yan one by one. Including the two of them, there were five stones in total. They all looked plump and juicy, which made him laugh. The kind that makes people want to pick it off and take a big bite.

Seeing this, many monks secretly thought that if it were me, I would pick these five in the first batch. They should be the oldest and theoretically the most effective.

And there are people who hold similar thoughts, regardless of whether they come from the righteous path or from the evil path.

On Su Yan's side, he said calmly: "I don't have to eat you, but I must gain something from my visit today. If I don't eat you, I have to eat other things."

Originally, Su Yan thought that these two little creatures would hesitate or something, but in the end, they didn't even think about it and just nodded vigorously.

This made him a little funny. Maybe in the eyes of this little man and pony, fruits that are not born with spirituality are not considered their kind?

So Su Yan tried to put the fairy fruit in his hand back to the place where he had cut it off, and then something magical happened. The broken fruit stem actually grew back intact.

This made the little man and pony couldn't help but happily thank Su Yan again and again, and even among the other three fruits, a little snake, a little pig, and another little man flew out.

These five creatures were all kowtowing and worshiping Su Yan, as if thanking them for the "favour of not killing" them.

Seeing that Su Yan really wanted to let go of the immortal fruits that had become spirits, some of the monks onlookers admired him, while others felt that he was wasting his natural resources and wished he could take his own life to replace them. Others felt that he was used to eating rare immortal fruits, so naturally Don't care about these three melons and two dates.

In fact, the reason why Su Yan did this was not only because he would feel slightly uncomfortable swallowing conscious spiritual beings, but also because he had a greater ambition, which of course may not be realized.
  Looking at the five little guys in front of him, Su Yan smiled and said, "There is a fruit picker over there. You have to ask him if he is willing to let you go."

Unexpectedly, when these fairy fruit spirits heard this, they just glanced at the peaceful Lord Xuan Jizi, and then quickly got back into their bodies one by one, as if they were very afraid of this person, without even asking for mercy.

Not to mention Su Yan, even Xuan Jizi himself was a little stunned. Does he look fierce?
  Immediately, Xuan Jizi said with enlightenment: "Perhaps it is the spirit of the fairy fruit that can feel the spirit of the fairy in your Taoist friend, and mistakenly thinks that the Taoist friend is the fairy who planted the fairy tree, so he kowtows to you. .”

"Under normal circumstances, they should not communicate with any alien species, even if their lives are in danger."

Su Yan was reminded by Xuan Jizi and guessed to go in another direction. Could it be because of the Jumang Staff? These little creatures actually felt the aura left by the Wood God, so they were particularly in awe of themselves.

But no matter what the possibility is, Su Yan is obviously the special one compared to others present.

"God has the virtue of good people. Since fellow Taoists have decided to let them go, I will not be such a bad person." Xuan Jizi still seemed to be easy to talk to.

"It's just that I still have to compete with my fellow Taoists for the remaining fairy fruits."

Su Yan naturally didn't want to face off against Xuan Jizi, who was as high as the ninth level, not to mention that both parties were righteous people. Why fight to the death when it was something that could be discussed?

He was about to ask: How much do fellow Taoists want?
  As a result, before the words were spoken, the Jiaoli Fairy Tree underwent another unexpected change.

I saw this towering tree swaying spontaneously, its branches and leaves rustling, and then the twenty-one fairy fruits on the tree spontaneously fell off, and flew into Su Yan's arms driven by some kind of force, leaving only the five darker ones. , but still hanging on the branches.

This stunned everyone, even Su Yan never expected such a development.

The crowd suddenly exploded, "What's going on? Does Su Xianren want to take it all for himself? He actually refuses to give up any of them to True Lord Xuan Jizi?"

"It doesn't look like he did it by himself, didn't you see? First the fairy tree shook, and then the fruit fell off spontaneously. It should be that the Jiaoli fairy tree favored Su Yan, and it might be to thank him for letting some of his outstanding people go. Child, give him the rest."

"Then according to what you said, this Jiaoli Fairy Tree also gave birth to special spirituality and consciousness? It also has three, six or nine grades for its own children?"

While everyone was talking, a young-looking Wuweiguan disciple suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I understand!"

His face was quite excited, "The fruit of this tree has reached the time when it should ripen and fall."

"I read the records in the Taoist scriptures. The color of the skin of the Jiao pear should be white with a hint of pale green. However, there is no trace of green in the fruit of this tree. It is obviously already ripe."

"But not all fruits can give birth to their own spirituality like those five special fairy fruits."

"The fruits of this tree are destined to fall to the ground. If no one picks them, they will rot in the ground and be a waste of resources."

"For this reason, after the Tianyuan Secret Land is opened this time, this area that has never appeared before will appear. The purpose is to allow those who are destined to obtain the twenty-one ripe fallen fairy fruits."

"And just now when Senior Su said he wanted to eat other fruits, those little people and ponies seemed very happy. This is because even if Senior Su doesn't eat them, those non-spiritual fruits will still be wasted."

"Originally, all those who passed the test were eligible to compete for the fairy fruits by their own means, but Senior Su's actions obviously made the Jiaoli Fairy Tree quite fond of him, so it took the initiative to shake off its branches and gave all the fairy fruits to him." "The rest of the people who want it can only find a way to get it from Senior Su."

This disciple was responsible for taking care of the medicine garden in the temple, and he was very familiar with the growth cycles of the medicinal herbs. After he said it, everyone felt that this should be the most likely possibility.

Of course, many people looked at Su Yan with envy and jealousy, after all, all the benefits were taken by him alone.

Su Yan and the other two naturally heard the analysis of the Wuwei Kuan disciple from a distance. Xuan Jizi couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said, "Can you ask fellow Taoist fellow Taoist monks to give me three Wuwei Kuan medicines? I will be richly rewarded for my observation."

"You're welcome, fellow Taoist. I have always admired the concept of Wuwei Guan. Just think of it as making a friend, and the reward will be waived." Su Yan said and waved his right hand, and three large and plump pear fairy fruits flew towards it. On Xuan Jizi's side, the rest will be taken to Daitian Palace.

Xuan Jizi suddenly showed a look of joy. He folded his sleeves and put away the fairy fruit. He clasped his fists and said, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. I look down upon you. You are always welcome to have Taoist friends come to talk about Xuan Dao and drink a cup of tea."

Seeing this scene, the disciples of Wuweiguan breathed a sigh of relief. This trip was not in vain.

Among the crowd, a young man in Taoist attire with a somewhat lazy temperament sighed a little when he saw this; his name is Chi Bugui, he is considered one of the most outstanding disciples of Wuwei Guan in the past twenty years, and he went to Qingcheng Palace to participate in the Tenth Festival in the past Annual examination.

It was also that year that Su Yan went down the mountain with his sword to avenge his family. The two parties were originally peers. In the blink of an eye, the person in front of him was standing in a position that was beyond his reach.
  After Xuan Jizi accepted the fairy fruit, he left gracefully, leaving only a few people within a hundred steps, staying where they were in embarrassment.

Needless to say, the two inspectors were in a good mood, and even Lin Daosheng was smiling.

As for the three people who just tried to snatch the fairy fruit, they are neither advancing nor retreating. Do they want to ask for it like Xuan Jizi did?
  But let's not talk about Su Yan's answer or not. After they made a move, they still can't get rid of that face. If they are rejected, it will be even more embarrassing. Maybe after the news spreads, it will become a cultivator. a joke.

Naturally, Su Yan couldn't give it to these guys. Even though he still had eighteen pieces in his hand, there were so many people here!

Lin Daosheng is so generous, why should the Donghai Sword Sect leave one for him? What's more, there is also Lin Wanqiu's relationship.

Then Su Yan called on the twelve inspectors to help him snatch an immortal weapon back from the Tianyuan secret place. He had made a big deal beforehand and said, "No matter who completes it, I can satisfy his request."

If you can really succeed in the follow-up, it wouldn't be too much to reward you with a fairy fruit, right? It also prevents them from making outrageous requests that they simply can’t fulfill.

Finally, for women like Yuzhen and the others who are close to each other, it’s not too much to give to one of them, right?
  With such a miscellaneous mess, Su Yan didn't have much at his disposal, and he didn't know if eating three or five pills in one breath would help him break through to the seventh realm.

Su Yan took action immediately when he thought of it. Yes, he was going to try to break through under the Jiaoli Fairy Tree!

Although there were a little more people watching, there were only a few people who could really get close. Others could only take action from a distance.

Su Yan also has Gou Chen, Guiren, and Lin Daosheng to help protect the law, not to mention that he can recruit a bunch of Liuding Liujia and Jinjia divine generals at any time.

Yes, before leaving this time, he once again stuffed the "troops" brought by Piaomiao Immortal Palace into Daitian Palace.

And since the merger of the two, these generals have also become appendages of Daitian Temple. Their spirituality and strength have also been slightly improved, and their combat effectiveness has naturally reached a higher level.

Finally, you, Xuan Jizi, have just received some fairy fruits from me, so you are too embarrassed to just ignore them, right? Before he could evacuate with anyone, the free bodyguards had to be used first.

As soon as Su Yan landed, the old man in gray took the initiative and said, "Fellow Daoist Su, can you make a deal? I have something in my hand that you should be interested in."

This person spoke shamelessly, probably because he was very eager to get the Jiaoli Fairy Fruit, but Su Yan just waved his hand, "Not interested."

This made the old man in gray look gloomy. Since Su Yan's attitude was so clear, it stands to reason that he should walk away now, lest he stay here and be laughed at.

But the old man just stood still with his hands on the crutches.

Not only him, but also Concubine Mingye, who wore a devil mask on her face and had a slight smile on her lips, the two of them did not take a step back, they just stayed there without moving.

Su Yan didn't bother to pay attention to them. He just sat down cross-legged and took out a fairy fruit, ready to take it.

This surprised the two envoys, and even more so the others. Are you going to eat on the spot? Why don't you go back and slowly refine the medicinal power in the fairy fruit?
  Some monks couldn't help but muttered: "I just said that the banished immortals are used to eating these good things, how can they be as precious as us?"

However, Gou and Chen received a message from Su Yan, "I need to use the power of the fairy fruit to make a breakthrough. You can help me protect the law."

The two of them were slightly shocked, and immediately agreed with solemn expressions. Although the matter came in a hurry, and the time and place seemed not right, they believed that the Immortal Lord had his own considerations.

On Xuan Jizi's side, he just broke through the restriction. It seemed like nothing happened, but in fact the injury was serious. Because the injury was at the level of the soul, it was not easy to see on the outside.

Because the fairy fruit had been obtained, he originally planned to take the Wuwei audience and withdraw from this area first and find a quiet place to heal his wounds. However, seeing Su Yan's actions at this moment, he couldn't help but stop.

Su Yan looked at the fairy fruit in his hand. It was jade-white in color and crystal clear throughout. The flesh was slightly transparent and could be vaguely seen through the skin. It felt indescribably warm and moist when held in his hand.

He raised it to his mouth and took a breath of the refreshing fruity fragrance. Su Yan took a bite, and the juice immediately splashed out in his mouth, turning into a large amount of extremely pure and dense immortal energy and pure spiritual energy.

What's even more rare is that this fairy fruit contains a lot of traces of the laws of heaven and earth, and they are different from those that can be understood today. They were only available before the ancient times were broken. It seems that they were engraved in that era and passed down from generation to generation. Until now.

In addition, the pulp and juice contain real fragments of the Great Law, not traces. Although the Wooden Way and the Golden Way are the main ones, they are also of great benefit to Su Yan.
