Seeing that the king's words vaguely revealed his resignation, Wu Chen became anxious.
Perhaps because the king was practicing the law of cause and effect, she did not want to be involved in too much cause and effect, and did not want to force anything.
There are 49 tribulations in the tribulation period, and the king has successfully passed 48 of them, leaving only this last one.
As long as one can successfully overcome this difficulty, one will be able to break through the tribulation period and become a Mahayana cultivator.
How could he bear to see the king fail at the last moment
Wu Chen took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and spoke slowly.
“Your Majesty, this person came from the human race’s Xiji City on behalf of Guizhi and me. I have already paid a deposit of 100 high-quality spirit crystals.
Now that things have come to this, we can't just let him go like this, right?"
At this moment, Wu Chen actually felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. It would be great if the ancestral sacred tree that Xu Dahai was holding was really as magical as he said.
Guizhi understood and continued to persuade, "We invited this person here. It is the cause we sowed. Your Majesty does not need to bear the slightest retribution."
The king sighed, "That's not what I meant... Never mind, let him come."
Wu Chen and Gui Zhi were delighted and lowered their heads to give Xu Chunniang a look.
Xu Chunniang understood and walked towards the white ancient tree. She said "I'm sorry", then released her spiritual sense and landed on the white giant tree.
This giant white tree is so huge that its branches and leaves cover an area of dozens of miles.
But upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to find that the branches and leaves on the giant tree are sparse and are already showing signs of decay.
She walked around the giant tree several times, and became more and more frightened. The king's injuries were much more serious than she had imagined.
Wang Tianhu also figured out something, "From what the two tree people said just now, could it be that what His Majesty has realized is the law of cause and effect
If this is really the law of cause and effect, then this is difficult to deal with."
The law of cause and effect is a twin law that is no less powerful than the law of life and death. If one wants to heal the king's injuries, one must see through the cause and effect in her.
But isn't it a joke for Xu Chunniang, a mere cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, to want to see through the cause and effect of a cultivator in the Tribulation stage
But when she frowned and remained silent, Wu Chen couldn't help but ask.
"How about it, can your ancestral sacred tree heal the king's injuries?"
The king smiled softly, and a breeze seemed to rise, blowing the branches and swaying them gently.
"I know the injuries on my body very well. Now I am just trying to survive."
Guizhi had tears in her eyes, "But Your Majesty, I don't want you to die..."
"Karma is cyclical, retribution is inevitable, and no one can stay out of it."
The king's tone was as calm as ever. "When I was young and hot-tempered, I violated the ancient teachings of my tree people and committed too many murders. Now I am just suffering the consequences."
"But all those people killed by the king deserved to be killed!"
Anger flashed in Guizhi's eyes, "Does my tribe of tree people deserve to be bullied?"
"No, it's just that the power of heaven cannot be violated. Since you are a tree person, you shouldn't have too many murderous intentions."
The king sighed softly. It was only in recent years that she gradually accepted her fate and understood these principles.
Xu Chunniang couldn't help but agree with this.
Tao has the difference between yin and yang, just as the leader of the tree people is life, the leader of the Shura people is death, and the leader of the beauty people is confusion.
If the Tree People kill too many people, these killings will continue to erode their hearts and make them move away from their true selves.
On the contrary, if Shura is too kind-hearted and soft-handed, he will not go far in his spiritual practice.
Her mind moved slightly, and she looked at Wu Chen and Gui Zhi behind her.
"When I use the sacred tree, no one else can be present to avoid interfering with me. Can you please leave for now?"
Guizhi nodded quickly, "Of course, don't worry, we'll leave now."
As she said this, she gave Wu Chen a look.
Wu Chen no longer held much hope and left with Guizhi with a heavy heart.
After the two left, only Xu Chunniang and the king were left.
The king's spiritual thoughts suddenly became sharp and fell on Xu Chunniang like a sharp blade, bringing an invisible and powerful sense of oppression and cold murderous intent.
"You disguised yourself and deceived my people, deliberately stepping into my tree people. What is your intention?"
The opponent's spiritual power came at her like an overwhelming force. Xu Chunniang's body swayed and she immediately felt a little breathless.
Thanks to Wangtianhu who took the initiative to help and shared some of the pressure, she was able to barely maintain a standing posture.
She struggled to send out a divine thought, "Your Excellency's actions are too unreasonable, aren't they? I changed my appearance only to avoid the human enemies."
The king remained unmoved and spoke indifferently.
"I am a kind-hearted tree person who doesn't like fighting. Isn't it enough that I've been bullied by you humans? How dare a mere Void Refining cultivator try to get his hands on the Fountain of Life?"
What Fountain of Life? Is there some misunderstanding here
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly, "I didn't come here for the Fountain of Life!"
"You still dare to quibble?"
The king stared at her coldly, "I saw traces of the Law of Life in your body."
Xu Chunniang suddenly felt a headache. It was probably because someone had tried to steal the Fountain of Life before and was discovered by the Tree People. That was why the king suspected her.
She thought for a moment and simply stopped arguing. She directly condensed a law of emptiness that lingered around her body.
Because of this law of emptiness, her figure gradually became ethereal!
The king was slightly surprised, "You actually prepared the Law of Void in advance to escape, you really came prepared!"
Xu Chunniang was helpless, "You really think too much, this law of emptiness is something I realized on my own.
In addition to the Law of Void and the Law of Life, I have also comprehended the Law of Reality and the Law of Death. If you don't believe me, just look!"
Xu Chunniang first condensed a law of life and transformed it into the law of death. Then she appeared from the void and broke Xu Dahai's disguise with the law of reality.
The king was really shocked this time, "You actually comprehended two pairs of twin laws?"
Xu Chunniang accepted it calmly, "Yes, you should believe me now, I didn't come here for the Fountain of Life, right?"
The king was silent for a long time, "Okay, I believe you, even if you have comprehended the two pairs of twin laws, with your strength, you can't steal the Fountain of Life.
But I want to see what skills you have to heal my wounds."
Xu Chunniang breathed a sigh of relief. The king was a little suspicious, but he was willing to listen to her explanation.
"I'm sure you've heard from Wu Chen and Gui Zhi that I have a sacred tree on my body that can heal everything."
As she spoke, she took out the small branch.
The king released his spiritual sense, scanned the twig, and recognized its origin.
"This is... a branch of the Dragon Clan's sacred tree!"
Seeing the twig, the last bit of doubt in the king's heart finally disappeared.
The Dragon Clan's Holy Tree is indeed a healing object, but unfortunately the branch in her hand is too small to be of much use.
