Martial arts ascend to the gods

Chapter 354 Mother Tree
"These rooms were specially prepared for non-Tree People, so they are designed in the style of Earth..."

After giving a brief introduction to the lush roots, he took out some books and handed them to Zhou Leng.

The book cover is made of tree bark, and the text is written in the language of tree people, but the paper and layout inside are clearly in the style of Blue Star.

Zhou Leng glanced at the pages and wondered if a book made of tree bark and wood was equivalent to a book made of human skin and flesh on Earth.
The Flourishing Roots said, "There is some knowledge about tree people inside. Take a look, some of it is very important."

"For example, the Friend of the Tree People can receive half a cup of Water of Life every day, and the Residents of the Tree Root Cave can also receive half a cup every day, which adds up to one cup a day. If you don't have time to collect it, you can collect it all at once later, but there is a limit to the total amount."

"Also, you can participate in some of the Tree People's rituals and obtain some Water of Life. If you're lucky, you might even receive the Tree God's blessing."

"It's a pity that we Treants are rather conservative and don't have the same exotic titles as Dwarves or Spirit Masters. But as long as you make great contributions, the Treant race will not be stingy with rewards, just like this time we let you enter the Tree Root Cave."

"The most important thing for you is to obtain the 'qualification to pay homage to the Mother Tree.' With this qualification, you can live under the Mother Tree of Life for a period of time. Even a pig will undergo a qualitative change in its body after living there for a period of time."

"It must be very effective for our healing techniques, right?"

“It’s enormous. All of your human martial saints have seen the Mother Tree of Life. Some earned it through battle merits, while others shamelessly boasted about it. For example, a martial saint named Zhu Shiji made a lot of promises to heal his injuries, but after he left, we didn’t see him do anything.”

"Hmm..." Zhou Leng remained silent, it was better to pretend he didn't know him, after all, he hadn't formally become his disciple yet.

"Therefore, our Tree People clan is not very welcoming of Zhu Shiji's disciples. There was one named Wang Boxiong, who was cunning and wicked. He took advantage of us and didn't keep his promises, so we drove him away." The Flourishing Roots spoke with a hint of indignation.

Zhou Lengdao said, "Some martial artists are indeed the scum of Blue Star. I will draw a line between myself and them and never associate with them."

“You’re definitely different from them. Look at you, you’ve been sleeping on the street since you came in. You’re so simple and honest, it makes me feel embarrassed. Come on, I’ll take you to get the Water of Life.”

The Root of Flourishing Tree took Zhou Leng to some important places and introduced him to some of their tree friend friends, praising Zhou Leng as their two life-saving trees, saying that killing monsters was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, and that he would definitely help the tree people deal with a large number of giant insects.

Before Zhou Leng could even integrate into the human community of the Tree People Base, he had already integrated into the Tree People community ahead of time.

By mastering the ancient sounds of the Tree People, he became a familiar face among them.

As night approached, Zhou Leng returned to his room in the tree root cave.

Quickly flip through the Tree Man books.

After advancing to the Innate Realm, not only do one's eyesight and physical abilities improve, but one's mental capacity also sees a slight increase.

Reading efficiency is greatly improved, and important knowledge can be easily remembered.

Zhou Leng quickly flipped through the books given to him by the Flourishing Roots, gaining a deeper understanding of the world of the Tree People.

Unlike other places where there are all sorts of treasures.

In the entire world of Tree People, there are not many treasures, and they are all related to the Tree of Life.

The water of life, the heart of the tree-man, the heart of life, the sap of the giant worm, the fossilized ancient tree, the ancient heart of life, and the roots of the original tree, etc., are almost all related to the tree of life.

There are no minerals, no elixirs, no weapons, and no inheritance involved.

It may look monotonous, but it is actually more pure.

The power of the Tree of Life alone is enough to satisfy all needs, which further demonstrates the power of the Tree of Life.

The giant insect race is even worse than the treants; apart from a kind of giant insect sap, other items are difficult to use.

For example, the exoskeleton and corpse of the giant insect are only used by humans and magic masters in very limited quantities. Most of the giant insect corpses are used as fertilizer for the tree people to absorb.

However, the juice of the giant worm is a well-known treasure in the Ten Realms.

The giant insects' power also originates from the roots of the original tree. They continuously strengthen themselves by devouring the vegetation, animals, and the power of the tree people and the Tree of Life in the tree-people world.

With each generation, they grow stronger, which causes the fluids inside their bodies to form a power similar to the water of life.

The juice of the giant worm is highly nutritious.

The basic practice of humans is to collect the juice of the giant worms and then make it into jelly or meat jelly. The more aggressive approach is to drink it directly, which can comprehensively enhance the body.

The juice of giant worms is very special. Even among the same type of giant worm, the juice is different depending on what they eat and how they cultivate.

This results in the effects of the giant worm's juices being completely random.

Some enhance flesh and blood, some strengthen bones, some heal injuries, and most have negative effects.

After consuming the juice of the giant worm, cases of coma, poisoning, hallucinations, madness, and even death are common.

Only the Tree People could barely discern the general nature of the giant worm's sap, which is why the giant worm's sap did not become popular in the Ten Realms.

Only a very few giant insects, after consuming very special treasures such as the Heart of Life or the heart of a Treant, will form "brilliant sap" in a short period of time.

After this giant insect dies, its juices emit a seven-colored glow. Although it looks like a culinary disaster and tastes like one, it is actually a highly nutritious food with no negative effects.

In the world of Tree People, Brilliant Sap is a luxury.

For other races, the Brilliant Juice is a high-grade medicinal fruit.

The Brilliant Juice has many minor benefits, but its most important benefit is unlocking the body's potential.

For example, if the body absorbs life force for three hours, it will overflow, and further absorption will yield very little benefit.

After drinking enough of the Brilliant Juice, the body's absorption capacity will at least double.

This alone is enough to attract all parties to flock to it.

After reading it, Zhou Leng reviewed the key information again.

How to gain the qualification to have an audience with the Mother Tree of Life, information about ancient tree fossils, and the legendary treasures of the spirits.

Contrary to popular belief.

These tree-man texts clearly state that the so-called elven treasure is essentially the legacy of the tree god.

Years ago, the wild elves stole the legacy of the tree god, then repackaged it as a gift from the elven god, deceiving the tree people. They proclaimed themselves white elves, shedding their barbaric identity and fabricating various false histories.

Later, the white elves declined and returned to the wild elves, and the treants inherited the legacy of the tree god.

Another part of the Tree God's legacy was obtained by the Giant Insect Clan.

There are some photos in the book.

The script in those tree spirit legacies is root script, and it originally had no connection with wild elves.

The characters are composed of images of tree roots, branches, and leaves.

Zhou Leng recalled his conversation with the treants. They thought the white elves were just as annoying as the giant insects.

The giant worm was merely an enemy, and the two sides engaged in a direct and open battle, but the white elves were particularly hypocritical.

Interestingly, while the other tree people cursed the giant worm for encroaching on the tree god's legacy, Lush Root occasionally offered neutral and objective comments about the giant worm.

From the perspective of the Tree People, those words were too familiar to the Giant Insects.

The book also contains photos of the Mother Tree of Life.

Zhou Leng looked at the photo of the Mother Tree of Life. It was as majestic as a mountain, even larger than the Frost Giant Tree, and looked even older.

It was a real mountain of trees, with trunks over 100 kilometers in diameter.

"The Mother Tree of Life..."

"According to various sources, the Mother Tree of Life can indeed promote the evolution of life in all aspects. The physical enhancement gained from a single audience with the Mother Tree of Life is at least equivalent to obtaining a national supernatural power related to the physical body."

"I must visit the Mother Tree of Life when I have the chance in the future."

"Ancient tree fossils are also the core objective of this trip. As for the Heart of Life and the Ancient Heart of Life, they are too rare. If I get them, I will be fortunate; if I don't, it doesn't matter."

"Even the Tree of Life has so many treasures, so logically, the Tree Elder should have..."

Zhou Leng abandoned the thought and headed towards the bathroom.

In theory, from the moment of birth, martial artists gradually acquire various abilities or minor supernatural powers.

His body and breath were odorless, and his skin and hair were free of dirt.

However, there are still some dust and impurities.

Zhou Leng took a sip of water, channeling his inner energy to cleanse his mouth in a more thorough way than a water flosser.

He spat it out a few seconds later.

It leaves no residue or dirt, and is as clean as if you've just had your teeth cleaned.

Then he took off his clothes and vented his anger on his skin.

The vital energy gently brushes across the skin's surface, rubbing away dust and dirt.

With a surge of true energy, the dust scattered.

It's cleaner than taking a bath or scrubbing.

In 30 seconds, the true energy cleansing was completed, and he slowly fell asleep.

In his dream, Zhou Leng climbed onto the giant frost tree, broke off branches, stole snowflakes and leaves, gnawed a large hole in the trunk, and sucked the sap inside.

The more you inhale, the bigger your body becomes.

The sweet sap is irresistible, making people suck it in frantically.

His body is getting bigger and bigger...

Bang!
His body exploded.

Zhou Leng kicked his feet, opened his eyes, his gaze was dazed, and after a while, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Looked at the time.

I slept for an hour and a half, which felt about the same as being under the giant frost tree.

Sitting cross-legged, I circulated the Star-Gazing Technique and felt the effects of cultivation in the tree root cave.

The cultivation effect is even better than cultivating under the tree.

After completing the Star-Gazing Technique, he compressed his true energy, then took out a large bag of star conch shells to cultivate the Undying Star Body.

In his mind, the ten divine runes representing the first level of the Undying Star Body's Transcendental Body slowly rotated.

Within the space of martial arts will, the illusory image of Ceres shone brightly, illuminating the entire space.

Zhou Leng continuously absorbed the light from Ceres and integrated it into his body.

Each time I cultivate the Undying Star Body, I feel a slight sense of regret and loss.

The cultivation of an immortal celestial body is too slow.

Since drawing the illusory image of Ceres into the space of will, I have never stopped cultivating.

Strangely, I haven't sensed any significant improvement in my physical condition so far.

It has indeed been enhanced, but the enhancement is extremely limited.

Among the other techniques, the most difficult and strongest is the Star Phoenix Resurrection Technique.

However, as long as one possesses cultivation techniques and treasures, one can condense ten thousand Star Phoenix Feathers in a relatively short period of time, advance to the next level, and gain powerful healing abilities.

The Undying Star currently has no cultivation techniques or treasures.

In martial arts perception, Ceres' power is immense.

That's equivalent to a small moon.

The initial goal of the immortal celestial body is to absorb all the power of the Ceres phantom.

Despite cultivating for so long, I haven't felt the Ceres phantom diminish in the slightest.

It's very likely that they haven't even absorbed one ten-thousandth of the power yet.

But on the other hand, it also fills people with anticipation.

The power of a mere Sky-Crossing Body and the Ceres Phantom seems to surpass that of the current half-mastery of the Star Phoenix Resurrection Technique.

If one could truly complete the cultivation, how powerful would the Undying Star Body be?

Crossing the void?

That's just the basic ability of the first level of the Sky-Crossing Body.
