The end of this quasi-emperor peak is coming

Chapter 182 Willow God Awakens
In the early morning, the warm sunshine shone on Luo Yan's face.

The children in Shi Village had already been called by their parents to move big stones and carry bronze tripods, and they cried out in pain.

It was obvious that the medicinal bath last night had a significant effect on the children, as they had gained a lot of strength and their physical fitness had improved a lot.

As usual, Luo Yan went to the medicine garden for a walk to check if any herbs were dead. Even though he didn't have the ability to do such meticulous work, in order not to attract too much attention, he often went to the medicine garden to inspect it first thing in the morning. Over the years, he had developed a habit and went there naturally.

Sitting under a willow tree, teaching and learning to read.

Life is ordinary, but also very interesting.

The children in Shicun are as naughty as ever.

Yesterday we collected bird eggs, today we go fishing in the river, and tomorrow we catch crabs in the fields. We never get tired of it.

There were some who skipped classes, but they would be tied to pillars at the entrance of the village by their parents and beaten with bamboo sticks, leaving their skin torn and their screams of pain echoing throughout the mountains, as a warning to others.

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The little one is three and a half years old and has his own name.

Shi Hao.

The Emperor Huangtian who has been arbitrary for eternity.

Luo Yan was carefully cultivating the spiritual tea he grew in the medicine garden. He had brought it from deep in the mountains and its origins were quite extraordinary.

"It feels like two years have passed by in a daze!" Luo Yan combed this spiritual tea tree which was only of first-grade quality. It was growing well, with juicy green tea leaves and thin and pointed buds.

Two years ago, this tea tree was just entering the first stage, but now it is almost breaking through to the second stage and is a hundred years old. Thanks to Luo Yan's careful cultivation, there is only one such spiritual tea tree in the entire mountain range. Perhaps the climate here is not suitable for the growth of this kind of spiritual plant.

"Uncle Luo!"

Outside the garden, a three-and-a-half-year-old child trotted over, his voice childish and with milk stains at the corners of his mouth.

The children in Shi Village generally grow very fast. Shi Hao is exactly the same height as a five or six-year-old child.

"what happened?"

"The patriarch asked me to come to you to pick some herbs. It will be time to go hunting in the mountains in a while!" Shi Hao said.

Luo Yan took out the herbs that he had prepared long ago, some of which could almost be considered elixirs.

"It's all here, and has been prepared long ago! We're just waiting for the patriarch to send someone to get it!" Luo Yan tied up the pile of herbs with a rattan rope and threw it to Shi Hao.

Shi Hao took it steadily. Although he looked small, he could actually lift the thousand-pound tripod without using any bone characters!
Seeing that Shi Hao was about to leave, he stopped and suddenly asked: "Uncle Luo, I heard that you can fly in the sky like a bird, is it true?"

Luo Yan hesitated for a while, then came back to his senses and smiled: "Who told you that? Uncle Luo is not an immortal, how can he fly?"

Shi Hao didn't believe it, showing his white fangs, and said, "Er Meng said so! He said he saw Luo Shuyi fly up like a god!"

Luo Yan said without changing his expression: "Maybe I saw it wrong?"

Luo Yan remembered that the little boy Shi Ermeng was one of the children who were tied up and beaten at the entrance of the village for skipping classes.

Shi Hao said: "Impossible, Er Meng said he was robbing a bird's nest and you flew over his head!"

"If I could fly, would I still be chased by ferocious beasts? Er Meng must have seen it wrong."

Shi Hao thought about it, and then said: "Yes, Uncle Luo, if you can fly, how could you be chased here by a ferocious beast!"

"Maybe Er Meng really saw it wrong?" Shi Hao scratched his head.

After Shi Hao left, Luo Yan muttered to himself: "It seems that I have to be more careful when entering the depths of the mountains in the future. I can't be careless because of the environment here!"

He also had no idea when he was seen when he went into the mountains to practice.

"We still can't let our guard down! It only takes a moment, but we have to go in slowly and without any cover-up!" Luo Yan reminded himself in his heart not to make such a mistake next time. He can't reduce his means to save immortal energy. The worst that can happen is to go to the fairyland again, or to the upper realm to recover.

Luo Yan picked some tea tips and refined them gently with the divine fire. Then he took out the spring water rich in spiritual energy, boiled it with the divine fire, and brewed the refined spiritual tea.

Take a sip to refresh your mind, nourish your spirit and nourish your soul.

A table, a pot of spiritual tea, a long armchair, and the afternoon sunshine. Luo Yan lay down on it.

"Life is supposed to be this comfortable!" He enjoyed basking in the sunshine, feeling extremely comfortable.

A five-colored bird landed on the top of the armchair and chirped a few times. Luo Yan waved his hand to drive it away.

The five-colored bird spread its wings and jumped, dodged nimbly, and then continued to land on the armrest of the armchair as if nothing had happened, chirping non-stop.

"Hey, I couldn't see you when you were working, and now that the food is ready, you came out immediately, right?" Luo Yan was annoyed by the noise and stood up and glared at it.

If the other party wasn't the incomplete soul of the Immortal King, Luo Yan would definitely slap him.

It was precisely because of the other party's identity, perhaps he was the protector appointed by Emperor Huang Tian for him, a backup plan prepared for him to survive the catastrophe of life and death, that Luo Yan did not dare to offend him.

Let’s not talk about whether the other party can suddenly exert the strength of the Immortal King realm. After all, when it comes to that level, who knows how terrifying it is?
Luo Yan doesn't think he can defeat an Immortal King who can directly interfere with the long river of time.

Apart from this identity, the mere fact that he was suspected to be related to Emperor Huang Tian made Luo Yan dare only curse but not take action.

If a fight really breaks out, whether you can go back is another matter.

The five-colored bird raised its head proudly and flapped its wings.

"Here you go!"

Luo Yan took out a few tea fruits, which were seeds from the spiritual tea tree and contained rich pure spiritual energy. After Luo Yan's observation, he found that this thing could actually nourish the soul and was a great tonic for the five-colored bird.

The five-colored bird happily swallowed several tea fruits in one gulp. The fruit filled its esophagus so much that Luo Yan was worried that it would die of overeating.

After swallowing the tea fruit, the five-colored bird jumped up and stared at Luo Yan eagerly, as if asking: "Are there any more?"

Luo Yan spread his hands and said, "No, it's only a few times a month, and you come every time, how can I hide it secretly?"

The five-colored bird then flew reluctantly to the branch of the spiritual tea tree and stroked the tea tree with its wings, as if to encourage it.

Luo Yan took a sip of tea and sighed, "Should the Willow God be waking up?"

The lightning-struck willow trees have experienced some special fluctuations these days that are different from the usual ones, as if the consciousness in the body is awakening.

Soon after, the crying little guys also began to follow the adults' example and try to go into the mountains and hunt on their own.

This is a necessary lesson for growing up, and it is also the capital for surviving in the wilderness. It is noon again.

"There is a powerful enemy invading, it's the Green Scaled Eagle! An adult Green Scaled Eagle!" Suddenly, an old man in the village shouted.

Then a huge figure appeared outside Shi Village. It was as strong as an ox, with wings that were more than ten meters long when spread out. It left a huge shadow on the ground, and its sharp claws could easily pierce a person's body.

Luo Yan disappeared from the armchair in the medicine garden in the blink of an eye, and appeared silently in Shi Village, his eyes scanning the green-scaled eagle in the sky.

On the other hand, the clan leader and his men were each holding a glowing weapon, which was made from the precious bones of powerful creatures and was extremely extraordinary.

It is obvious that the two sides have fought each other and are now in a standoff.

At this moment, Xiaobudian and others returned to the village with three bird eggs.

The expected bloody battle did not come. The descendants of the demon birds cried loudly in the air, and their voices pierced through gold and split rocks.

"I told you not to cause trouble, you little bastard, stop right there!"

"Dad, please stop hitting me. I know I was wrong!"

"Woooooooo..."

What greeted these children was not a warm welcome ceremony, but a severe beating, which made them cry out in pain.

The children ran wildly and finally hid in the patriarch's yard, trying to seek his protection.

After entering the yard, the children were surprised to find that the little one was not beaten, but was drinking milk with a small wooden spoon, which made them envious and jealous.

"Wow! The little one is drinking milk again! You are already three and a half years old this year!" a child shouted, as if afraid that others didn't know.

The little one felt embarrassed about being discovered, and babbled, holding the small bowl and trying to cover it with his tender little white hands so that the older children wouldn't see it.

His face flushed, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he defended himself weakly: "You are mistaken... I was actually... drinking water."

The older children burst into laughter and forgot the pain in their bodies for a moment.

"We were all beaten, but how come you got the beast milk to drink?"

The little one's big black eyes rolled around: "Because I told the story to the clan leader, and he thought it was good! So he won't blame me anymore!"

"what story?"

"Little Red's Story!"

"What is Xiao Hong?"

"Xiaohong is the red bird. I've told you about it before." The little one was very dissatisfied and said it again.

Shi Ermeng said resentfully, "I also told the clan leader the story of Uncle Luo flying in the sky. Why didn't the clan leader reward me but beat me up instead? Isn't the clan leader too partial?"

The other children's attention was diverted: "Uncle Luo is flying in the sky? You can brag as much as you want! How is it possible that Uncle Luo can fly in the sky? Is he an immortal?"

"That's right! Uncle Luo is not an immortal, how can he fly?"

"I also said that Uncle Luo could kill the giant beast in the mountains with one punch. Do you believe it?"

The children questioned this story. Uncle Luo's thin arms and legs were completely different from the strong immortal they imagined.

In addition, Uncle Luo had never left Shi Village since they could remember, so how could he fly in the mountains?
It sounds too fantastic!
"Birds of prey like the Green-Scaled Eagle are the most vengeful. Since the kids stole their eggs, it will never let it go. It has been guarding outside the village. It will be difficult for us to go out of the village to hunt in the future!" Shi Linhu looked worried.

"This hairless eagle is very terrifying. If we don't return the eagle egg to it, it may cause endless trouble! Even if we have a treasure in hand, it will be difficult to deal with it. After all, no one can exert the true power of the treasure!"

The villagers decided to send the eggs out first. If that didn't work, they would think of another way. It would not be a good idea to be blocked by it all the time.

Just as they stepped out of the yard and took a few steps, the old willow tree that was completely charred suddenly moved. The only willow branch was surrounded by green clouds and hung down like a shining divine chain, gently brushing over an eagle egg, making it shine brightly!

Everyone was stunned, and Luo Yan immediately went to communicate with the willow tree.

"Liu Shen?"

The other party woke up for a while, but still did not respond.

Luo Yan was anxious and wanted to ask Liu Shen for advice on the next steps and methods, but the other party remained silent and ignored him.

"I mean no harm!" Luo Yan guessed something and quickly expressed his feelings.

The willow tree still didn't answer.

Luo Yan sighed in his heart. He could see that God Liu seemed unwilling to pay attention to him.

The ferocious bird outside the village trembled all over, raised its head suddenly, and shot out two lightning-like beams of light from its eyes, staring at the altar.

The sky brushed by the tender willow branches was filled with a myriad of rays of light, a thousand auspicious colors, and a thousand strands of light mist, as if it had suddenly become deified, crystal clear and dazzling, and it was very amazing.

The spots on the eggshell were glowing like little suns, emitting strong light and showing a vigorous vitality. Moreover, more lines appeared around the spots, which were complex and dazzling, like dragons and snakes rising together, or like a divine bird dancing in fire.

The egg underwent an amazing change, as if it had mutated and had many more complex and dazzling patterns.

Everyone was shocked by this change, Luo Yan explained: "This egg was enlightened by the Willow God, and the life imprint in its body has revived a lot, which is commonly known as atavism. When it grows up, it will definitely be stronger than the Green Scale Eagle!
You give these eggs to the eagle outside, and when it senses what has happened to its children, it will naturally send these eggs to the village."

After hearing this explanation, everyone suddenly understood and looked at the charred willow tree with calm eyes. It was indeed the sacrificial spirit of their village!

After the explanation, Luo Yan didn't care about what happened next, but left with a worried look on his face.

A ray of consciousness emerges from the charred willow wood.

"In just the lower realm, there are actually people from the true fairyland!"

"Moreover, the aura of this person is quite complicated, as if he is not from this era! It's a pity that I am seriously injured now and cannot find out the details of this person!" God Liu thought.

"Is this person a powerful warrior sent by my former enemy to hunt me down? Or is he lurking here to monitor me?" she suspected.

In short, her current condition is not good. Even if the other party feeds her with immortal essence, Liu Shen is still vigilant. She did not absorb the immortal essence, but stored it in her body for observation.

Being in the lower world, seeing a true immortal so selflessly providing her with immortal energy was already a bit weird. In addition, the aura of this person was extremely strange, perhaps not belonging to this era, which made her even more alert.

She thought about it over and over again but couldn't understand how a true immortal could travel through time and space!

There must be something wrong here! Maybe a former rival deliberately mixed up her aura like that just to determine her current state!
It’s a pity that Luo Yan didn’t know what God Liu was thinking, otherwise he would definitely cry out for injustice, because he was on God Liu’s side!
You are against the wrong people, they are our allies and friendly forces!
On the other side, Luo Yan was in a state of confusion, wondering: "Could it be that Willow God has not awakened yet? Or is it that the immortal essence I infused into him is not enough?
Do you want to take a gamble? Infuse all your immortal essence into it to revive the Willow God?"
