Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 501: The Source of Flesh and Blood, the Mother Tree of Desire
As the Silver-haired Princess further explored her potential, Yan Xu was also looking for a stronger target to demonstrate to. The two of them walked faster and faster, leaving Andre and Hawkeye as spectators. The two of them had tried their best not to fall behind, but they could only watch as the two of them knocked down a small monster with one punch each as they went further and further away.

The two brothers looked at each other. Although one was tall and the other was short, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for each other at this moment and place.

When the two, who were still unsatisfied, arrived deep in the forest, they suddenly saw an incredible scene, and woke up from the harmonious atmosphere of "you teach me, I learn".

According to rumors, there is a swamp deep in the Beastfoot Forest, and the black dragon's lair is hidden inside it. But now the entire swamp has been covered by dense and strange roots, and its original appearance cannot be seen at all, let alone there is no space for the black dragon to survive.

These are not simple plants, because normal plants do not have characteristics of flesh and blood, do not have temperature, do not breathe, eat and metabolize like living things. This thing is simply like a hybrid of plants and organisms, a special life form beyond imagination.

"Mother Tree of Desire!" The silver-haired princess obviously knew what it was and exclaimed in surprise. Yan Xu on the side also frowned, because he was not unfamiliar with this thing either.

Since traveling to the strange world, Yan Xu discovered that this thing is everywhere, but it is called differently. For example, in the Eastern practice system it is called the Extraterritorial Demon, in the Western mythology system it is called the Old Foreign God, and in the modern mysterious field it is called the mysterious root.

No matter what it is called, it cannot conceal its harmfulness. No wonder the silver-haired princess's face turned so ugly when she saw it.

"Do you know him?" Yan Xu asked, because the weirdness would change according to local conditions.

Because of her birthplace, the Silver-haired Princess had access to more secrets, whether it was the Holy Oak Kingdom or the elves and dwarves. She naturally had some knowledge of the Mother Tree of All Things that left heavy marks in ancient times, so she nodded.

According to the myths of the elves and dwarves, there were originally no flesh and blood creatures in Middle-earth. Only elemental life enjoyed eternal life between heaven and earth and controlled supreme authority.

At that time, every elemental life was as powerful as a god. They could shape mountains and rivers at will and possessed the power to change the world.

But later, a tree seed fell from the sky, grew into the mother tree of all things on the continent, and spread its seeds of flesh and blood.

Because it was too boring, some curious elemental life forms tried to merge with the flesh and blood seeds, from which the first flesh and blood life forms were born.

The High Elves who originated from the light and the Hill Dwarves who were born from the earth all gained flesh and blood bodies because of the Mother Tree of All Things. That period was also called the Age of Mythology, because after gaining flesh and blood bodies, although they lost some of their authority, the remaining part could still be called demigods.

But while having flesh and blood brings rich emotions, elves and dwarves no longer have endless life. At the same time, as they reproduce, their authority is diluted with the spread of blood, and they generate more desires. After all, there was no morality or law in that period, everything was free. Therefore, many absurd and incomprehensible things appeared in the mythological era. In short, even if Zeus came, he would have to be praised as a big player.

These impurities from the emotions between the two races contaminated the pure flesh and blood seeds, from which humans and orcs were born.

To some extent, it was the elves and dwarves who created humans and orcs, but both races regard it as an indelible stain.

First, the emergence of the two tribes represents that absurd era, and second, humans and orcs started the destruction of the mythological era.

At that time, whether out of responsibility or curiosity, the elves and dwarves provided a lot of help to the two new races that were born because of them. Although humans and orcs had no authority, they had unparalleled desires and reproductive abilities. Under the care of the elves and dwarves, they spread at an incredible speed.

But the elves and dwarves soon discovered that compared to them, humans had stronger emotions, orcs had more chaotic emotions, and orcs were even better than theirs. They had only polluted the flesh and blood seeds, but these two new races had actually polluted the Mother Tree of All Things, turning it into the terrible Mother Tree of Desire, and it no longer spread flesh and blood seeds, but flesh and blood plague.

There is no detailed record of the Plague of Flesh and Blood in the myths left by either the elves or the dwarves. It only says that the two races paid a huge price to burn the Mother Tree of Desire and seal the Plague of Flesh and Blood.

But it was too late. The roots spread all over the continent caused the Mother Tree of Desire to revive again and again. For this reason, the four tribes formed an alliance to extinguish the spark of the Mother Tree of Desire's revival. That time was also called the Golden Age.

However, the lifespan of humans and orcs was much shorter than that of elves and dwarves, and they fell deeper and deeper into desire and chaos. Eventually, they betrayed the Alliance, triggering a war that affected the entire continent. After ending the Age of Mythology, they also destroyed the Golden Age.

The four tribes broke up as a result. The elves returned to the forest to live in seclusion, the dwarves returned to the underground to isolate themselves from the world, humans and orcs completely lost control and began to grow wildly, but the Mother Tree of Desire was never completely eradicated.

However, its vitality was severely damaged, and it has been a long time since its roots grew into the Mother Tree of Desire. But every time it appears, it often represents a huge disaster.

"Now it's no longer just our business." After telling this part of history, the silver-haired princess sighed.

Yan Xu didn't have the nerve to break in to take a look, so he decisively followed him back.

If the people or orcs were notified, the former would face endless wrangling, and the latter would not care about it at all. Fortunately, the dwarves with a long heritage were very clear about the harm of the Mother Tree of Desire and had strong execution capabilities, so they quickly reached a consensus and sent troops.

This time, it was no longer the Silver-haired Princess who hired the Great Snake Mercenaries, and now she had to work for the dwarves because they paid her too much.

The silver-haired princess's equipment was repaired by the dwarf master craftsman, and Yan Xu also got the propellant and ignition device he wanted, so the death of some people for this was not something he considered at all. He even pulled back a group of troops because he felt the fluctuation of destiny, and the tolerance limit of world consciousness was therefore increased.

There were thousands of strictly trained soldiers. Not to mention the silver-haired princess, even the dwarves looked at him sideways, wondering which human force he belonged to.

The reason why Yan Xu was so active, not only did he want to take the opportunity to feel the destiny and explore the depth of the world's consciousness, but also he was interested in the Mother Tree of Desire.

Yan Xu's main account is now deeply bound to the strange sea. Instead of thinking about how to get out, he might as well think of a way to strengthen it. By that time, when others are constantly troubled by the threat of the extraterritorial demon when practicing, he can just shout, "Demon, I want you to help me practice!"

When necessary, he can even take away the body of the demon. This is the difference.
