saint of humanity

Lu Ye came to Phoenix Nest this time to find Dragon Lord to report the matter of Yang Qing. This kind of thing can also be mentioned in the Dragon Book.

His main purpose was to borrow the power of Taichu Wutong, otherwise it would take too long for him to reach the sensing place.

Now that the inner and outer worlds are merging, for the cultivators in the inner world, it is nothing more than the addition of a large number of ants, as well as the terrain of the outer world, so the impact is actually not that big.

But the impact on the cultivators in the outer world is huge. Originally, in the outer world, Rong Dao could be the king, but now there are countless He Dao, and Rong Dao is not even worthy of being on the stage.

The fusion of the two worlds is like mixing sheep and wolves together. The weaker side will undoubtedly be miserable.

So Lu Ye had to get there as soon as possible.

Taichu Wutong was the only person he could think of who could lend him strength.

"You want to borrow the power of Taichu Wutong..." Hearing this, the Phoenix Lord smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid this won't work."

Lu Ye was startled, and quickly said: "Disciple can pay some price, as long as disciple can afford it."

"You misunderstood." The Phoenix Lord shook his head, "It's not that I am stingy with the power of our clan's treasure, it's just that the old man is... having some problems now."

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Ye and said, "Do you remember the accident that happened when you first came to Phoenix Nest?"

Lu Ye nodded. Of course he remembered this. At that time, he had obtained the method of practicing the Space Dao Seed and was preparing to enter the secret realm within the Taichu Wutong Tree to practice. However, he was somehow drawn into the Space Corridor, where he met Zhu Yin who was also practicing. In the end, if an elder of the Phoenix Clan had not come to rescue them, it would have been difficult for them to get out of the Space Corridor.

He suddenly understood: "At that time, Taichu Wutong had problems?"

The Phoenix Lord nodded: "Long before that, the old man had some signs. After the recent fusion of the inner and outer worlds, this problem has been aggravated a lot. Now, not to mention that you can't borrow the old man's power, even I... can't do it either!"

Lu Ye was shocked. The Taichu Wutong was the foundation of the Phoenix Clan. If anything went wrong with this treasure, it would have a huge impact on the entire Phoenix Clan.

"What's wrong with it?" Lu Ye asked in a deep voice.

Long Zun sighed: "In the final analysis, it is still the ubiquitous erosion. You know, all the cultivators living in Xingyuan are troubled by that erosion all the time. The stronger they are, the greater the degree of erosion. Just like Tyrant Qiu, if he becomes a saint, he will turn into a puppet. And this kind of erosion is not just for cultivators!"

Lu Ye suddenly realized: "The Taichu Wutong has also been eroded!"

The Phoenix Lord said, "Yes, the Taichu Wutong tree is too old. Since its existence, the erosion has never stopped. Although it is a treasure, it cannot withstand the continuous erosion force over the endless years. Now the Taichu Wutong tree is about to lose itself."

Lu Ye was shocked. If Taichu Wutong really lost himself, he would probably become a complete puppet of Yuan just like those true saints in the Source Realm. Once such a thing happened, it would definitely be a devastating blow to the Phoenix Clan.

He suddenly remembered that in the Source Realm, when the blood clan used a large number of human monks for sacrifice, in addition to the descending of elemental treasures, there were also supreme treasures falling from the sky, which were eventually obtained by Xue Tianxing.

These treasures and supreme treasures did not come out of thin air, they always have a source.

Lu Ye had seen many special treasures in the Xingyuan Treasure House. The origins of the special treasures could be explained, but what about the ultimate treasure?
Now it seems that the treasure was most likely the result of complete erosion.

"So if you want to borrow the power of Taichu Wutong, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Lord Feng sighed.

Long Zun said: "Recently, Fengzhu and I have been troubled by this matter, but we don't know how to solve it."

"Disciple understands." Lu Ye nodded. Under the current circumstances, it was obviously unrealistic for him to borrow strength. Taichu Wutong's intelligence was almost destroyed in that kind of erosion, so how could he have the energy to respond to him.

After a brief thought, he spoke again: "Then I will take my leave first!"

Master Feng said, "Don't leave yet, I have something to ask you."

Lu Ye looked at her: "Please give me your instructions, Lord Feng."

"You just said that you fell into the Source Realm together with Xueju. Now you have escaped, but where is Xueju?" asked the Phoenix Lord.

The Blood Drinking City was indeed wiped out by the joint efforts of the Dragon and Phoenix tribes. Now, except for a few that escaped the net, the wings of the Insect and Blood tribes in the inner world have been almost completely clipped.

However, for the Phoenix Lord, as long as Xueju is alive, the great hatred he committed in the past will not be avenged. There are not many members in the Phoenix clan, and Xueju murdered several members of the Phoenix clan and took away their blood. This has led to the possibility that several members of the Phoenix clan will never be born.

The Phoenix Lord was obsessed with this great vengeance, and he would not be at peace until he killed Xue Ju with his own hands.

"Xue Ju stayed in the Source Realm." Lu Ye said, and after thinking for a while, he said, "And he should be promoted to a semi-saint soon."

"Half Saint!" Lord Feng was shocked.

Long Zun was also extremely surprised: "Although Xue Ju is one of the ten city lords, his background is not the best among the ten city lords. How could he take such a step?"

This was somewhat unbelievable. One had to know that even he and Lord Feng were not qualified to take that step at the moment. They could vaguely glimpse the threshold, but they still felt that something was missing.

Lu Ye said truthfully: "My disciple cooperated with him in the Source Realm and killed a Half-Saint of the Blood Clan. He obtained the blood of that Half-Saint of the Blood Clan. When my disciple left, he was refining the blood of that Half-Saint. So if nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be able to be promoted to Half-Saint."

As soon as these words were spoken, Dragon Lord and Phoenix Lord both looked at Lu Ye in amazement, almost unable to believe their ears.

Long Zun moved his mouth, wanting to ask Lu Ye if he knew what he was talking about.

That's a half-saint! How could he be so easy to kill?

The Phoenix Lord narrowed his eyes and said, "You have teamed up with Blood Guilt?"

"There is a reason for everything." Lu Ye certainly knew what Master Feng was thinking, "Master Feng, please rest assured. Even if Xue Ju is really promoted to a semi-saint, I have the means to restrain him."

The Phoenix Lord looked at Lu Ye for a while, and finally nodded and said, "It's good that you know what's going on."

Long Zun looked distressed: "I still don't understand, how can you and Xue Jue join forces to kill a half-saint!"

It is true that Lu Ye had shown great strength before. He was able to fight on equal terms with Xuan Wu Zong and, with the assistance of Fu Wei, he even defeated one of the ten city lords. However, such strength should not be enough to fight against a semi-saint.

"Poison!" Lu Ye explained, "My disciple prepared a deadly poison that greatly weakened the Half-Saint's strength."

The corner of Long Zun's mouth twitched. It was hard to imagine what kind of poison it was that could actually affect a strong man at the semi-saint level.

Without intending to dig deeper, Long Zun said, "Alright, it's useless to say these things now. The blood guilt has fallen into the source world. Unless you and I are promoted to semi-saints, there will be no way to deal with him in the future."

Lu Ye opened his mouth, wanting to say that the Source Realm would most likely also slowly merge with him, but in the end he didn't say it out loud.

This was ultimately just a guess on his part, although it was very likely to happen.

"Now, two of the ten great Hedao cities have been destroyed, and the inner and outer worlds have been merged. I'm afraid that there will be chaos in Xingyuan for a while. If you have nothing to do, don't run around. Just practice well here." Long Zun warned.

"Yes."

A moment later, Lu Ye flashed and landed on a trunk of the Taichu Wutong tree. In front of him was the entrance to Su Yan's Phoenix Nest, but he did not enter it. Instead, he sat down cross-legged.

He looked around, closed his eyes and concentrated, silently activating the power of the talent tree. Invisible roots spread out and penetrated into the tree trunk.

He was very cautious during this process.

It’s not that he is afraid of being seen by others, but the Taichu Wutong has its own intelligence. In other words, this treasure is alive.

He didn't know whether doing so would cause any reaction from Taichu Wutong.

Fortunately, the whole process was uneventful and Taichu Wutong did not move at all.

Lu Ye immediately understood that Taichu Wutong’s condition was really bad. Its intelligence might be about to sink, otherwise it would be impossible for it to have no response to any external stimuli.

This made him feel relieved and he became bolder.

The roots continued to spread, extending outward along the trunks and branches.

It can be clearly felt that the roots encountered great support when extending.

If Lu Ye's use of the power of the talent tree to refine the Dao fish was like sticking his hand into water, which was extremely smooth, then at this moment it was like sticking his hand into mud that was about to dry up.

Although the roots of the talent tree can also pass through Taichu Wutong's body, the more they spread, the greater the resistance.

It was only after about an hour that Lu Ye stopped.

It has reached its limit. Now, with him as the center, the roots of the talent tree have spread out to an area of ​​nearly three miles and cannot extend any further.

Lu Ye did not hesitate and immediately activated the power of the talent tree. The invisible force of burning burst out from the countless tiny roots.

When Lu Ye learned about Taichu Wutong's current problems from Dragon Lord and Phoenix Lord, he thought that he could use the power of the talent tree to help this treasure out of its predicament.

Taichu Wutong's current situation, after all, is that too much Xingyuan aura has accumulated in his body, which is the corrosive power of the abyss.

When this corrosive force accumulates to a limit, it will completely destroy Taichu Wutong's intelligence, turning the treasure into a puppet for Yuan to use.

Although the Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord are powerful, they are helpless in the face of such a situation. Otherwise, the Dragon Lords of all generations would not have sealed themselves in the ancestral restriction.

But for things they couldn't deal with, Lu Ye had a plan to deal with it.

Since a long time ago, the power of the talent tree can not only be used on oneself, but also on others.

The mermaids under the Wanxiang Sea and the blood curse in Huanqing's body were all solved by Lu Ye using the talent tree.

However, this was the first time he had done such a thing to a treasure, and he didn't know if it would work, so he didn't tell Dragon Lord and Phoenix Master beforehand.

He planned to give it a try first.

If it succeeds, everyone will be happy. If it fails, it will save the Dragon and Phoenix Lords from being disappointed. (End of this chapter)
