On the Avenue.

Chapter 530: Stealing the Tree
Wu Qi turned his back to Chen Shi and was about to ask, but Chen Shi said, "My name is Chen Shi, and I am the true king of Xiniuzhou, the king appointed by the Ming Dynasty. Your Shang Dynasty has been extinct for 16,000 years. I searched the battlefield of Shang Dynasty Heaven, found your bones, and used natural materials and treasures to revive you."

Wu Qi was full of questions when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Shi said to himself, "The Shang people have turned into ghosts. I am respected as the leader by the Shang people because I can turn ghosts back into humans. I am not the King of Shang and I don't have royal blood. You can call me the Slave King."

Wu Qi opened his mouth to speak, but Chen Shi continued, "It's okay, I'm used to this title. You and Xun Jiangmu died together, and Xun Jiangmu's soul disintegrated. Before he died, he possessed the body of a merchant, and used the name of Tianzun to sneak into Despair Hill, killing eighteen merchants. Now he is entrenched in Despair Hill. I know you want to repay my kindness, and then join forces with me to deal with Tianzun. You only need to steal a treasure tree for me, and your life-saving grace will be written off. Now come with me to see the Queen Mother Hou Tu. Do you have any questions?"

Wu Qi was stunned. After a moment, he said, "You have said everything. I have nothing to say. Where is the Queen Mother Hou Tu?"

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Please follow me."

Wu Qi followed him, wondering in his heart: "This slave king is so strange, he seems to know what I am thinking. However, if I repay his kindness and work with him to eradicate Tianzun, I will awaken the sleeping immortals of Da Shang, kill him by surprise, and restore the orthodoxy of Da Shang!"

Chen Shi brought him to see Hou Tu Niangniang. When Hou Tu Niangniang saw this Wu Qi, she couldn't help but frowned slightly and gave Chen Shi a deep look that seemed to be able to cut off two taels of flesh.

"I am Wu Qi, an unworthy descendant of later generations, and I pay my respects to the ancestor of witches, Goddess Di Mu!" Wu Qi hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects.

While the Queen Mother Hou Tu was offering sacrifices to the Purple Sky Vine, she responded to him with a few random words.

Wu Qi's eyes were filled with tears, and he choked up and said, "Qi will definitely repay the True King."

The Queen Mother Hou Tu couldn't help but said, "Qi, when you go out, be more careful!"

Wu Qi said yes.

Chen Shi took him into Houde Palace. Taoist Liu was already waiting under the lotus platform. He said dryly, "The Queen asked me to steer the boat for you two."

Chen Shi thanked him and boarded the willow-leaf boat.

Taoist Liu steered the willow-leaf boat and followed the ray of light deep into the dark sea with ease.

After an unknown amount of time, they sailed out of the Dark Sea and arrived at the Xuanhuang Sea. Two days later, they finally saw the Fusang tree in the sea.

Taoist Liu stopped the boat on his own initiative. Chen Shi glanced at him, then retracted his gaze and smiled at Wu Qi, "Brother Dao, the sacred tree I want to steal is the Fusang tree. However, there is a fairy palace on the tree, and two female fairies live in it. They guard this place. If they see someone coming to steal the tree, they will report to the fairy, and then Qin Xianjun will descend from the sky to kill the tree thief. Qin Xianjun is extremely powerful, and his strength is far greater than yours. What is your plan to deal with it?"

Wu Qi was very surprised and said, "I never thought that Your Majesty had already found out the truth. Knowing yourself and the enemy, you will win every battle. Your Majesty anticipated the enemy's moves, no wonder you can become the king of Xiniu Island."

He looked at the inconspicuous Yuzhen Palace in the distant Fusang tree, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Since Qin Xianjun's strength is far beyond mine, it is indeed not advisable to fight him. He is not here, and he will come only when someone notifies him. There are many ways to notify him, but the most common way is incense. A wisp of incense connects thousands of continents. Therefore, we only need to cut off the incense to calmly seize the tree."

Chen Shi humbly asked, "How can I stop his incense burning energy?"

Wu Qi smiled and said, "You can use the method of peach to replace the dead plum. Daoist friend Liu, please lend me a branch."

Taoist Liu took a willow branch from his body and felt some pain.

Wu Qi gathered his energy into a sword, cut the willow branch neatly, and used his mind to draw some strange Taoist patterns on the willow branch. He said: "This is the Wuliang substitution method. There are ghosts in the underworld, one is Wu and the other is Liang. They are good at mixing in the Taoist temples of witch sacrifices, pretending to be ancestral gods, and stealing incense. As the number one witch, I have encountered such ghosts many times, so I realized this little magical power. It is most suitable for fooling people."

He raised the willow branch, and it flew silently towards the Yuzhen Palace in the Fusang tree and floated above the Yuzhen Palace.

Chen Shi bowed and said, "Thank you, Brother Dao."

Wu Qi stood up and said with a smile, "What's the difficulty?"

He flew through the air and soon arrived under the Fusang tree.

In Yuzhen Palace, two fairies were guarding the place. One of them said, "Although the Immortal King has killed his enemy this time, without the Heavenly Silkworm, I am afraid that disasters will be difficult to overcome."

Another said, "This matter is beyond our ability to resolve. The Immortal King is powerful and has a wide network of contacts. He will definitely be able to find a place to stay during the catastrophe and avoid death. At worst, we can give this hibiscus tree as a gift to a big shot in the Earthly Immortal Realm. I think it will be able to buy a place to stay... Hey, someone else came to steal mulberry leaves... It's that person again!"

She exclaimed, looking incredulous.

The two girls looked down and saw clearly that the immortal who was beaten to death by the Immortal King and even had his Immortal Mysterious Art strangled was actually back!
"We are no match for him, inform the Immortal Lord immediately!"

The two girls immediately lit incense and tried to inform Qin Xianjun. As the incense burned and floated into the sky, Qin Xianjun's voice came, and he lazily asked, "What's the matter?"

The two girls hurriedly said, "My Lord, something terrible has happened! The immortal who was just beaten to death has come back to steal the tree again!"

The Fusang tree was leaning to and fro, swaying back and forth as Wu Qi shook it.

Qin Xianjun's voice was carried into the ears of the two women through the incense, and he said with a smile: "Is this true? Light more incense, and I will descend here."

The two girls quickly lit a few more incense sticks. Immortal Qin's voice came again, saying, "There are not enough incense sticks. I can't determine your exact location. Please light some more."

The two women lit some more. At this time, the Fusang tree shook violently. Wu Qi had already uprooted the tree with his supreme brute force!
The two women were shocked. This tree took root from the corpse of the ancient Golden Crow and grew into a towering tree. Although it was still a small sapling, it was also very important. What was even more terrifying was that this Fusang tree was rooted in the corpse of the ancient Golden Crow, absorbing nutrients from the corpse, and invisibly suppressing and refining the corpse of the Golden Crow.

Legend has it that someone built this tree just to allow it to suppress the corpse of the Golden Crow.

This is also the reason why no one dares to covet this tree even though it is planted in the vast Xuanhuang Sea.

But now this hibiscus tree has been uprooted by someone. I don’t know whether to say that this person has amazing powers or is extremely bold!
"Why hasn't the Immortal Lord arrived yet?"

The two girls felt their scalps tingling and they dared not stay on the Fusang tree any longer. They quickly urged Yuzhen Palace to fly into the air.

The voice of the Immortal Lord came again along with the smell of incense, saying: "The incense you offered is still not enough, I cannot descend! Quick, more incense, otherwise the Fusang tree will fall into the hands of others! Do you know that you have committed a heinous crime!"

The two girls hurriedly burned incense, and the voice of the Immortal Lord was still urging them to burn more incense. One of the female fairies suddenly realized and said, "The Immortal Lord is not a god, why do you need so much incense? The Immortal Lord is offended!"

She followed the incense and raised her hand to strike back.

A stream of magical power flew along the scent of incense. After a moment, there was a snapping sound outside the palace. A willow branch exploded and the voice of the immortal king suddenly disappeared.

The two girls burn incense again, and the voice of the Immortal Lord comes: "What's the matter?"

The two women hurriedly told the story again. The Immortal King was shocked and angry. The next moment, the void was torn apart, and the real body of the Immortal King Qin descended, standing above the Xuanhuang Sea with overwhelming momentum, overlooking the sea.

"My Lord, the thief is carrying the Fusang tree and going over there!" a woman shouted.

Qin Xianjun had a gloomy face as he chased in the direction Chen Shi, Taoist Liu and Wu Qi fled. After chasing them for a day or two, they suddenly saw darkness ahead, blocking the road.

Qin Xianjun immediately stopped and looked at the surging darkness. He was filled with fear and did not dare to move forward.

"How audacious! How audacious! Do you know the origin of this Fusang tree? How dare you steal it?"

Qin Xianjun sneered, "He steals everything. He is such a desperado! He provokes the owner of the Fusang tree... "

He looked at the darkness in front of him, and suddenly felt that the darkness seemed to be closer to him. He quickly stepped back, away from the sea of ​​darkness, as if he could not avoid the darkness at all.

Qin Xianjun left in a hurry, and met two women who came over. He stopped them and said, "The thieves who stole the tree have entered the dark sea and are nowhere to be found. There is no need to chase them. You stay here, and someone will come to find you and ask you the reason. Just tell them the truth, and they will not make things difficult for you..."

He was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and said, "Let me tell you in person to avoid any misunderstanding."

The three of them waited for a while, and as expected, a fairy boy came riding on a fairy crane. The fairy boy had a Taoist aura and held a whisk in his hand. He waved it gently and said, "It turned out to be Qin Xianjun. My master asked me to come and ask, where is this Fusang tree?"

Qin Xianjun did not dare to neglect him and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Lingshu. My courtesy."

He recounted the whole story, saying, "The thief who stole the tree was very strange. He practiced a seemingly immortal profound skill, which was similar to the Nine Revolutions Profound Skill, but with some shortcomings. I originally took action to destroy all his Dao patterns, and I thought he would be dead, but he came back to life and stole the tree when I was not prepared."

The fairy boy Lingshuzi was surprised and said, "Is this true? Let me calculate it."

He calculated with his fingers but couldn't figure out anything and couldn't help frowning.

Qin Xianjun smiled apologetically and said, "The thief took the Fusang tree and fled to the dark sea."

The fairy boy Ling Shuzi's face suddenly changed, and he said, "No wonder I couldn't figure it out. I will report this matter back to the master. The fairy king doesn't need to worry."

He threw the whisk in his hand up, and suddenly the silk threads of the whisk became like countless soft swords and pierced into the sea. He smiled and said, "This treasure, sir, should be able to suppress the corpse of the Golden Crow for a period of time." After that, he rode the crane away.

Immortal Qin felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly stood up and left with the two fairies and Yuzhen Palace.

The Queen Mother Hou Tu is still refining the Purple Sky Vine. She has refined most of the Purple Sky Vine in the past few days. If this treasure can contain her way of reincarnation, it will be able to control the avenues of heaven and earth in the underworld and possess extraordinary power.

At this moment, suddenly a fire broke out in Houde Palace.

The Queen Mother Hou Tu looked hurriedly and saw Chen Shi walking in front with a rosy face, and Wu Qi following behind, carrying a Fusang tree that was burning with blazing flames out of Houde Palace.

Hou Tu Niangniang was stunned and said in a lost voice: "You stole the mulberry leaves, so you stole the mulberry leaves, but why did you steal the tree back?"

She suddenly felt that her account books were no longer manageable.

——I couldn’t sleep, so I sorted things out and updated it.
