Chapter 117 Ancient Cang Tree
When Chu Ci heard Lin Mengyan speak so confidently, he knew that she must have discovered something, so he quickly asked her in detail.
It turned out that several decades ago, Lin Fuxing and his two companions were still cultivators in the early stage of Jindan. While out on an expedition, they encountered a pair of level six blood-scaled bears.
The strength of the sixth-level monster is equivalent to that of a cultivator in the late Jindan stage. The three of them were unable to resist it at all. While fleeing, they accidentally discovered a dozen unusually tall trees, each of which was as big as a small mountain.
The three of them flew towards the giant trees. When they arrived, they found that there was a strange spiritual fluctuation on the trunk of one of the giant trees. Upon checking, it seemed to be an entrance. The three of them flew directly into the trunk in a panic.
What was strange was that when the three people entered the tree trunk, a green barrier actually appeared at the entrance. It seemed like a kind of self-protection of the giant tree. No matter how hard the two blood-scaled bears beat, they could not get in.
Afterwards, the three of them discovered that as long as they used their spiritual power to randomly strike the giant tree twice, the green barrier could last for more than half a month.
One can see the outside world and hear sounds inside the tree trunk, but spiritual power and consciousness cannot penetrate it.
In this way, they used their spiritual power to hit the tree trunk once every ten days or so. The two monsters saw that they could not get in and finally had to leave in disappointment.
In order to prevent the Blood Scale Bear from returning, the three stayed in the tree for another two months before daring to come out. After coming out, they quickly fled the place.
Lin Mengyan heard this story from her grandfather and was deeply impressed. She still remembers clearly that her grandfather said that after they flew several hundred miles south, they found a dead tree trunk. Judging from its shape, it was the same kind of tree as the one they were hiding in. No one knew how many years it had been dead, but the trunk had never rotted.
It must be the huge dead tree that the two of them just saw that reminded Lin Mengyan of this incident.
After returning, Lin Fuxing also consulted ancient books and learned that the tree was called Cangshu, one of the sacred trees left over from ancient times. It would not die for 100,000 years when alive, and would not decay for 100,000 years after death.
Lin Fuxing even broke off a branch and took it home to plant. Unexpectedly, the tree actually survived and grew to a height of 60 to 70 meters in 30 to 40 years.
That is the big tree with spiritual energy that Chu Ci saw at the Lin family.
After listening to Lin Mengyan, Chu Ci roughly understood the whole story. The three of them fought in Baijie Ridge, and Lin Fuxing escaped. The other two must have been chasing him relentlessly. In desperation, Lin Fuxing fled to the tree hole where he once hid from the Blood Scale Bear. Cui Tian and the others also knew the mystery of this tree hole, and in desperation they reported it to the Wulong ancestor. The Wulong ancestor then sent people to capture Lin Mengyan, intending to use this to threaten Lin Fuxing to surrender, but unexpectedly he was saved by Chu Ci.
However, the spiritual power was blocked in the tree hole, so Lin Mengyan's jade pendant lost its effect.
After connecting all these together, Chu Ci asked the Wind-Winged Eagle to slow down. According to Lin Mengyan, there should be a dozen or so huge trees within a few hundred miles ahead.
Sure enough, when Chu Ci looked carefully, there seemed to be something in the distance, as tall as a mountain, but unlike a mountain, it was not thin at the top and thick at the bottom, but went straight up to the sky.
Chu Ci stopped more than a hundred miles away from the Cangshu tree, put the wind-winged eagle into the spirit beast bag and said to Lin Mengyan:
"Mengyan, wait for me here. I'll go take a look at the situation first. No matter what happens, don't come over. If you think something is wrong, you can ride the wind-winged eagle and leave first. We'll meet up at the dead tree." After saying that, he handed over the spirit beast bag.
Lin Mengyan hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Chu, in my opinion, we should go together. The other side has two Jindan cultivators, and I really don't feel comfortable if you go alone."
Chu Ci shook his head and said, "Absolutely not. The consciousness of a Jindan cultivator is too powerful. Even I am not completely sure that I can avoid it."
“Brother Chu…” Lin Mengyan also understood that if she went, she would most likely become a burden, but she also felt it was inappropriate to let Chu Ci go alone. She didn’t know how to decide for a moment.
"Meng Yan, don't worry. I have my own way to protect myself, and I'm walking over with the breath-suppressing talisman and the invisibility talisman, so they won't be able to find me."
After hearing what Chu Ci said, Lin Mengyan immediately asked, "Brother Chu, can you give me a few of these two talismans?"
"Yes." Chu Ci agreed and took out a lot of talismans from his storage ring. When he was halfway through, his hand suddenly stopped and he looked up and asked, "You want these two talismans, don't you want to go there by yourself?"
Lin Mengyan smiled: "Of course not, I just put it on my body just in case."
Chu Ci nodded and warned again seriously: "Don't act on your own."
Lin Mengyan chuckled: "Look how scared you are. Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you here."
Chu Ci then felt relieved and stuck the breath-suppressing talisman and the invisibility talisman on his body. His figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and even his breath was gone.
After becoming invisible, Chu Ci walked towards the direction of the dozen or so ancient trees.
The closer he got, the more carefully he walked, for fear of making any noise that would attract the attention of the two Jindan cultivators.
The effectiveness of the two talismans each lasted about half an hour. In order to avoid exposing any flaws, Chu Ci would always stick the talismans in place in advance.
In this way, he changed the talisman five times in total, and Chu Ci was less than a mile away from the nearest old tree.
He found that the tree was very shocking when viewed from close up. It was more than ten feet in diameter. Standing under the tree and looking up, one could not tell how tall it was. One could only see the straight and thick trunk reaching into the sky.
Because cultivators have sharp hearing, Chu Ci heard the voices from a distance.
"Brother, don't blame us two brothers. We really have no other choice."
"My two dear brothers, we have known each other for a hundred years, and have been through life and death countless times. Why do you have to force me to do this today?"
Chu Ci was cheered up after hearing this. It sounded like it should be Lin Fuxing. Judging from his full voice, he was definitely not injured.
Then another voice said:
"Brother, don't say anything. The Wulong Patriarch has promised us that as long as we help him get the treasure, he will return that trace of his soul. Please help us, brother."
"You two are so foolish. How can he let you go after he gets the treasure? Even if he doesn't kill you two, there is no way he can return your souls. At the very least, he will make you slaves for the rest of your lives."
After he finished speaking, there was no more sound from the other side.
After a long time, Lin Fuxing's voice sounded again:
"You guys probably don't want to be slaves, so I think you should follow my advice. Please make way for me, and I will kill that Wulong Patriarch, so that you can be free again."
"Brother, we also know a thing or two about your cultivation. You are no match for him."
"Then the three of us will go together."
"Brother, our souls are in the hands of the enemy. He only needs a thought to kill us. Even if we run away thousands of miles away, there is no chance of survival. We will be killed by him before we even make a move. How can we fight together?"
"If you two die, I will never live alone. I will keep my word!"
"Brother, why would we go and die if we know we will?"
This time it was Lin Fuxing's turn to remain silent.
