Chapter 263: The Immortal Peach Tree Cultivated by the Second Generation of Longevity Gods
This is a towering peach tree.

But now it seems to be dead.

Over time, the world has changed dramatically. The cracks on the trunk of this towering peach tree are like winding dragons, crisscrossing each other, and its bare branches point straight to the sky. Even though it looks dead, it still gives people a sense of transcendence and purity.

Human beings seem very small in front of it.

At this moment, Lu Yue couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

Because he found that this peach tree was somewhat similar to the one in the playground.

Imagine the fairy-like scene of the peach tree in the amusement park bearing fruit. What if this towering peach tree in the ruins, which is more than ten times larger, could also bloom and bear fruit?

Lu Yue couldn't imagine how shocking the scene was.

I think even the real fairy peach tree in mythology is no more than this.

Unfortunately, there is no if, Lu Yue couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

At this moment, Zhang Chao suddenly shouted excitedly: "The concentration of spiritual energy here is too outrageous. Just taking a breath is like taking a natural treasure."

"It feels so good, Brother Lu Yue, you should try taking a few puffs too."

Zhang Chao's eyes sparkled, he opened his mouth wide, stuck out his tongue and hummed continuously.

The corner of Lu Yue's mouth twitched, and then he said seriously: "I don't smoke products without ingredient lists. I'll give you my share and I'll go to the other side to take a look."

After saying that, Lu Yue began to stroll around. When he came to the other side of the towering peach tree, he unexpectedly spotted a familiar figure. It was the stone statue of the god of longevity that they had assembled earlier.

He originally thought he had lost her, but unexpectedly he met her here.

At this time, most of the opponent's body was buried in the soil, with only his head exposed.

"Are you planning to take root and sprout into a new stone statue of the God of Longevity?"

The stone statue of the god of longevity ignored Lu Yue's joke.

No answer, right?
Very good, I just like your coolness!
"Hiss... I suddenly feel the urge to pee, so I'll give you some fertilizer. You're welcome."

Just as Lu Yue was about to unzip his pants, the voice of the stone statue of the God of Longevity finally rang out in his mind: "You... are here... I am very weak..."

Seeing that the other party could speak, Lu Yue quickly asked about the wrist curse.

However, the statue of the god of longevity just repeated: "I am weak..."

Now that things have come to this, how could Lu Yue still not understand? The only way now is to gather the source energy, improve the quality of the jade body, and rely on himself to solve the curse.

Lu Yue continued to ask: "What did you mean when you said not to open it?"

"The trial ground...darkness...danger...sealed..."

A few minutes later, Lu Yue, who understood everything, looked increasingly serious.

The stone statue of the god of longevity is a key used to open the passage to the mountains.

Allow extraordinary people from the outside world to enter the training ground inside.

Because there is a way to become a god in the land of trials.

The trial ground is opened, and the darkness inside will gradually spread across the entire island.

In a few days, this fragment of ruins will never see daylight again.

This means that twenty-four years of life are deducted every day.

Darkness shrouds the ruins, and all lifespans will be recycled.

And these recycled lifespans will appear on the new gods.

In other words, every opening of the trial ground means the selection of a new god.

For some reason, the stone statue of the god of longevity was resurrected and destroyed the keys to the other stone statues of the god of longevity in the ancient temple, thus sealing off the trial site.

What happened next was just as in the memory scene. The stone statue of the god of longevity ran to kill the last god of longevity. Although it succeeded in killing the other party, it was also chopped into pieces by Taoist Fang's ghost-head knife, and even the relics were affected and cut.

But...this is not a relic fragment.

This is clearly a young relic that is still developing.

The reason is simple, because the trial ground is here.

To put it simply, the "throne" is on this island and the "Imperial Seal" is here. Although the area is a bit small, it is an orthodox inheritance.

This was a complete surprise.

You have to know that those forces outside only think that these are ordinary fragments of relics. The reason they exist is simply because there are things related to gods in them. They just want to occupy this place and use the spiritual energy to practice.

No one could have imagined that there was a "throne" inside.

The true value of this relic fragment far exceeds the heritage of those bloodline families.

To get back to the point, the stone statue of the god of longevity has been sealed here for thirty years, but it is actually only temporary, because no matter whether it is assembled and opened or not, it is inevitable that the darkness of the trial ground will penetrate into every corner of the island.

Lu Yue and others just opened the door in advance.

"If it's so dangerous inside, why did you run in?"

"You're here for this peach tree. What's its origin?"

The stone statue of the god of longevity was silent for a while, and finally spoke.

"Xu Santing... the only fairy peach tree..."

"Who is Xu Santing?" Lu Yue asked with a frown.

The statue of the God of Longevity spoke incoherently: "After me... God of Longevity... have you seen..."

After being reminded by the stone statue of the God of Longevity, Lu Yue recalled some things in his previous memory. It seemed that the other party was talking about the second generation of God of Longevity after Peng Zu.

It’s similar to what happened to the first generation longevity god Peng Zu.

He is also a lucky person who was selected in advance to enter the ruins.

In folk tales, there are many legends about this ancient god of longevity.

It is said that he spent his entire life cultivating peach trees and only ate fairy peaches, not caring about worldly matters.

There are records about fairy peaches in folk myths and legends. There are three kinds of fairy peaches. The first kind ripens once every three thousand years. Eating it can make you immortal. The second kind ripens once every six thousand years. Eating it can make you ascend to heaven and earth and live forever. The third kind ripens once every nine thousand years. Eating it can make you live as long as heaven and earth and as old as the sun and the moon.

Of course, these myths and legends written by later generations have some embellishments. The real fairy peach is not that magical. Even the gods cannot achieve immortality, let alone just eating a bite of the peach.

Although both are longevity gods, the second generation longevity god is famous for cultivating peach trees.

The peach tree from which Lu Yue had plucked more than fifty peaches at the amusement park was one of the varieties he cultivated, but it could only be considered a distant relative of the fairy peach.

The tree before us is the closest to the fairy peach tree in mythology.

Just one fairy peach.

The stone statue of the God of Longevity can be restored to its glory and elegance of thirty years ago.

But the reality is often cruel. This fairy peach tree has been cultivated for thousands of years, and it is in the ruins. Even so, it still looks withered, and it is a long way from blooming and bearing fruit.

But overall, this is still a fairy tree.

Since I can't eat the fruit, I'll absorb the nutrients from the fairy peach tree to restore my strength.

Therefore, the stone statue of the god of longevity buried itself in the ground.

Lu Yue asked curiously: "Can't other natural treasures help you recover?"

The stone statue of the God of Longevity grunted, indicating that it had been seriously injured thirty years ago. Only the peach fruits cultivated by the second generation of the God of Longevity were the best.

Other natural treasures have no effect on it.

Lu Yue said "oh".

Then he turned around and took out a peach the size of a human head from the medicine box.

And wiped the hair on the clothes.

At this time, the stone statue of the god of longevity that had buried itself in the soil frowned slightly, as if it had smelled something, and then twisted its neck and stretched it out.

"What... is in your hand?"

"Nothing, just a little thirsty, I'm going to eat a peach to replenish water."

The stone statue of the God of Longevity stretched out its hand and said, "I want... give it to me."

The muscles at the corners of Lu Yue's eyes twitched. As expected of a stone statue, it was really thick-skinned.

Just reaching out and taking it so blatantly?
"You want peaches, no problem, but we have to make a deal." Lu Yue pondered, "If I encounter any danger in the ruins later, you have to help me."

Since even the stone statue of the god of longevity said that this place was dangerous, Lu Yue thought about finding a helper to be prepared. The origin of this stone statue was mysterious, and having its help could be considered as a form of insurance for himself.

The longevity statue slowly said, "Sure... I want one hundred..."

Lu Yue's face darkened. This guy was clearly a profiteer.

He asked for a hundred pills right away. Where could he find so many?

"Five, no more."

"One hundred."

"Ten."

"One hundred."

"..."

"Thirty. I know Zhang Yaling, the owner of the body bag. For her sake, let's become friends."

Lu Yue had no choice but to use Zhang Yaling as his trump card.

Finally, the stone statue of the god of longevity gave in because of Zhang Yaling.

Lu Yue offered the other party thirty peaches in exchange for his help.

This stone statue of the God of Longevity has a mysterious origin. It once killed the last God of Longevity. Although it was chopped into pieces, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Having such a trump card in hand will definitely come in handy at the critical moment.

"By the way, can you tell me where you came from?"

After the transaction was successful, Lu Yue asked curiously.

The longevity statue said, "Give me... one hundred..."

"I am Zhang Yaling's beloved relative. For the sake of our acquaintance..."

Stone statue of the god of longevity: “…”

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to answer, Lu Yue stopped asking and readily paid thirty peaches to the other party. As a result, when he was rummaging through the medicine box, he accidentally poured out more than fifty peaches.

At this moment, Lu Yue saw that the stone statue of the god of longevity's eyes were about to pop out.

Then he hurriedly packed them up and gave thirty of them to the other party.

It is better to be safe than sorry. What if he was wrong and the stone statue of the god of longevity ate the food and denied it? It would be impossible to ask it to perform a caesarean section to prove its innocence, so he had to reveal in advance that he still had a lot of peaches.

Once the other party's help is really needed, no matter for Zhang Yaling's face or Taozi's face, the other party will not ignore it.

As for whether he felt bad about giving away these thirty peaches, of course he did. After all, one peach could add ten years to his lifespan. During this time, Lu Yue had been running a hotel in the ruins. Excluding the "counterfeit money", all the natural treasures combined could only add a thousand years to his lifespan at most.

This will remove three hundred years.

However, although extending your lifespan by a thousand years is good, it does not mean that you will not die.

This bodyguard fee has to be paid!
After the stone statue of the god of longevity sucked the peach dry, the crack on its forehead returned to normal.

At this moment, Lu Yue suddenly thought of a question and said, "By the way, this trial site is quite large. What if the distance is too far? How can I ask you for help?"

The stone statue of the God of Longevity points to the other side of the towering peach tree.

"Call my Peng Zu...his...bloodline...to open a passage...come here..."

Peng Zu?

Sure enough, the other party is related to the first generation of Shou Shen.

After getting the other party's assurance, Lu Yue returned to the other side and saw that Zhang Chao was still breathing heavily, so he asked him what he was thinking next. He learned that Zhang Chao wanted to stay here, break through his cultivation level, and then go find rare treasures to save his master.

This is just right for keeping the stone statue of the god of longevity company.

The two parted ways, and with Zhang Chao's farewell, Lu Yue left the area of ​​towering peach trees.

In the following time, Lu Yue returned alone in the direction he came from.

Just when he was halfway back, a figure rushed past in the darkness in the distance, and the air around it surged, raising a cloud of dust.

Lu Yue looked intently, frowning, and he sensed a familiar breath.

Isn’t this the butcher who dropped the map earlier?
That was the fugitive he had guessed was the one who dismembered his limbs and sewed them onto other people's bodies in order to enter the ruins.

After such a long time, he met the other person again.

I lost him last time, I can’t miss the opportunity again this time.

Just as he was about to follow quietly to find out what was going on, a loud bang suddenly came from another direction, as if a thunderbolt from a clear sky and the earth was cracking.

This is the sound of explosion caused by the collision of energy when extraordinary people fight.

At this time, Lu Yue could hear the voices of other extraordinary people from time to time.

"Someone has found the place to become a god!!!"

"What? The place where gods become gods. Let's go and take a look!"

In an instant, the faces of the extraordinary people nearby changed.

They all rushed towards the direction of the explosion, fearing that they would be too late.

Lu Yue looked back at the butcher and found that he was about to disappear from his sight.

Should I follow the other party, or go to the place where gods are born?

After just a little thought, Lu Yue made a decision in his mind.

He decided to follow the butcher to find the fugitive.

After all, the other party is the only remaining extraordinary person in the Lincheng corpse-stitching lineage.

The other party must have a purpose for entering the ruins.

As long as they find the other party, whether by force or by following secretly, it is very likely that they can follow the clues to find the corpse sewer from thirty years ago.

His main task is to find out the secrets from thirty years ago.

As for the rest, you can put them aside for now.

The darkness of the trial ground became the best camouflage.

Lu Yue followed the butcher from a distance to avoid alerting the enemy.

Along the way, he saw several figures running out from different directions.

Soon, the few people came to an empty space and stopped.

Lu Yue also took the opportunity to hide behind a rock and peek.

Then I saw this horrifying picture.

The gathered figures began to move, just like the plastic models in the shopping mall, and began to remove their limbs on their own. With the needle and thread shuttling back and forth, these limbs were gradually sewn onto a body.

Real hammer!
The other person was the corpse-stitcher whom he had hit with his car in Taicheng.

He is also a wanted fugitive from the Lincheng corpse-stitching lineage.

Lu Yue was a little curious about how the host would feel after the limbs were installed on someone else. After all, it was easy for the host to notice after the limbs were replaced.

Since entering the ruins, he had only seen a butcher whose legs were replaced, but that day the butcher obviously recognized Lu Yue after seeing him chasing him, otherwise he would not have run away and shaken him off.

Could it be that the lower body also has the consciousness of the corpse-stitcher?
So it influenced the butcher and then controlled the butcher?
This is too perverted? ! ! !
And this is different from the corpse-stitcher in folk legends.

Only then did Lu Yue realize that since he entered the ruins, his target had always been the corpse-stitcher from thirty years ago, and he automatically ignored the fugitive who was wanted by the authorities but had not yet been caught.

The other party obviously also has some secrets.

Moreover, Lu Yue always felt that the fugitive's head seemed a little smaller now.

The head is smaller than that of the man in nightgown who was knocked over in Taicheng earlier.

At this time, the fugitive in front, after reassembling his body, just stood there in a daze, like a mobile phone restarting, but soon his body became flexible and ran in one direction.

Lu Yue followed closely behind, being cautious all the way.
