Ye Zan took Shi Lin and Little Loli into the passage that opened out of thin air. After the three figures disappeared from it, the passage also shrank and disappeared in an instant. Only the demons of the demon clan were left, looking at the place where the passage disappeared in shock and anger, but for a moment they didn't know what to do.
His grandma's surname was Ye, who was so capable of causing trouble. He didn't even finish the job of putting the young master into the jade ball. In the blink of an eye, he abducted the young master to some strange place! Although these great demon kings are all quite resentful, they really have nothing to do. After all, they can't be defeated!
The old turtle came to his senses first and called back the big demon kings who had rushed out before. He looked at Zhenjun Qinghong and others with complicated expressions and said, "Fellow human Taoists, although my young master is... That fellow Daoist Ye is a disciple, but after all, he is also the adopted son of my great sage. I am afraid that Fellow Daoist Ye’s move is a little inappropriate.”
True Lord Qinghong snorted coldly and said rather disdainfully: "Hmph, as the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father! How Ye Xiandi treats his disciples is not up to you and other outsiders to comment. As for what you and others say. I’m afraid you all know what’s going on behind the scenes.”
Not only is Ye Zan suspicious of Jiao Sheng's purpose, but anyone with some common sense actually knows what is going on with this adopted son. Even if they are not aware of the various hidden dangers in Shi Lin like Ye Zan, they can question the father-son relationship between Jiao Sheng and Shi Lin through Jiao Sheng's indifference to this.
To put it bluntly, maybe only that silly boy Shi Lin, who has not experienced much human experience, would take this father-son relationship seriously.
Of course, strictly speaking, this does not mean who is cheating whom. Even if some people know the mystery, they are still eager to worship a few high-ranking godfathers. In the final analysis, this is a kind of mutual use. The adoptive father uses these godsons to work for him, and these godsons can also obtain exclusive benefits through this status.
However, this matter now falls on Shi Lin. As Shi Lin's master, Ye Zan naturally thinks that his apprentice has been cheated. True Lord Qinghong stood on Ye Zan's side, and his natural thinking and judgment point of view was based on Ye Zan's position, and he also expressed his disdain for this relationship.
This is the so-called butt determines the head.
In short, the demon clan has no choice but to continue waiting here.
Besides, Ye Zan, with Shi Lin and Little Loli, did not go to the small world of the fairy palace, but went directly to the space where the nameless giant tree was.
"Wow, so... such a big tree!" Shi Lin suddenly couldn't help but let out an exclamation when he saw the giant tree. He raised his head as if his neck was about to break, and he forgot to close his mouth for a moment.
It was impossible not to marvel at the stone forest. The tree body was like a giant pillar, the crown of the tree was like the dome of the sky, and people under the tree were like ants. It was indeed so huge that it was incredible. Not to mention it was the first time to come to Stone Forest. Even though Ye Zan had been here many times, the shock in his heart never diminished every time he saw this giant tree.
Unfortunately, Ye Zan still hasn't been able to get a definite answer to the origin of this giant tree. Nata Lao guards the Arctic Immortal Palace and can be said to be the "person" who knows Xuanqing Daozu the best, but he also knows nothing about the origin of this giant tree.
After Xuanyuan Daozu reshaped his body, Ye Zan also asked Xuanyuan Daozu about this giant tree. However, despite the fact that Daozu Xuanyuan and Daozu Xuanqing are brothers, not everything about Daozu Xuanqing is known, so it is also impossible to tell the origin of this giant tree.
Ye Zan now only speculates based on unreliable legends that this giant tree may be related to the legendary ancient tree of Taichu. But there are many things that don't make sense about this guess, not to mention that the legend itself is not very reliable. According to legend, the ancient tree of Taichu turned into heaven and earth, so how could the ancient tree of Taichu that had turned into heaven and earth come here again
The reason why Ye Zan is obsessed with the origin of this giant tree is not just out of curiosity. You must know that the leaves given by this giant tree will be integrated into the sea of consciousness of people. Although they have the benefit of strengthening the soul, they are foreign objects of unknown origin after all.
Like Ye Zan himself, he got thirty-six leaves in one go and built a green leaf lotus platform. This green leaf lotus platform now seems to be of great benefit to himself, but who knows what price he has to pay to get this benefit
Of course, it is also possible that Ye Zan is overthinking.
After all, since Xuanqing Dao Ancestor placed this giant tree here and asked disciples of the Yuqing Sect and other sects to look for opportunities, the safety should be guaranteed to a certain extent.
It is precisely because of this that even though Ye Zan had some concerns, he still decided to take his disciple Shi Lin to try his luck. The dragon clan skills that Shi Lin is currently practicing, like other demon clans, do not cultivate the soul, so they are easily targeted by the powerful spiritual thoughts of the soul. If Stone Forest can obtain a few leaves here to suppress the sea of consciousness, it will also have an extra layer of protection when encountering threats to the soul in the future.
"Shi Lin, go ahead. Just go to that giant tree and meditate calmly and see if you can gain anything." Ye Zan pointed to a place under the tree and said to Shi Lin, who had just recovered from his thoughts.
"Oh, it's Master!" Shi Lin was very obedient and didn't ask any more questions. He immediately ran to where Ye Zan pointed. As for meditation, he had also learned the Qi Refining Method from Ye Zan, so he was very familiar with it and sat cross-legged on the spot, assuming a standard posture with five hearts in the sky.
Ye Zan was actually not completely sure about what he could get from Shilin. This time he just came to give it a try. You must know that what Shilin practices is the Dragon Clan Kung Fu, which is completely different from that of the human race cultivators, and there is no way to comprehend the great path. So far, the people Ye Zan has seen who can successfully obtain leaves are all the best among human cultivators. Even the little Lolita and Xiaobaxia have not been able to obtain even a single leaf.
After meditating in the stone forest, Ye Zan and little Loli stood not far away. While strengthening the concept of not eating randomly to the little Loli, he paid attention to the changes in the stone forest.
Time passed minute by minute, and the giant tree did not respond at all. There was no sign of leaves falling down on the huge canopy like the sky. On the contrary, Si Lin was sitting under the tree. His originally calm face first slowly frowned, and then the blood veins in his temples swelled like earthworms, and his expression gradually became a bit ferocious.
"Dad, does my little brother have a stomachache?" Little Loli asked Ye Zan with some fear when she saw Shi Lin's appearance.
Originally, Ye Zan was just curious and didn't understand what the change in Shi Lin's expression meant. However, after hearing the little Loli's question, he finally suddenly realized that this damn thing clearly looked like it was hurting.
He didn't blame Ye Zan for being slow, after all, he had never thought before that a meditation session would cause such pain. On the contrary, the little Lolita, because of her simple mind, doesn't think too much about other things, and just does what she thinks.
But why does it hurt? Ye Zan immediately opened his eyes of true knowledge and looked at Shi Lin. In the eye of true knowledge, "everything" is invisible, and the current situation of Shilin is also clearly seen by the eye of true knowledge. It turned out that the stone forest sitting cross-legged there was constantly suppressing the power of blood in the body, and thus placed a considerable burden on the body.
"Snapped!"
Ye Zan suddenly patted his head, and then immediately shouted to Shi Lin: "Shi Lin, there is no need to suppress the bloodline, keep the spiritual platform clear, just follow your heart."
It’s so confusing that I didn’t expect this! Ye Zan, who had woken up, couldn't help but curse himself secretly. Probably because of the reunion between master and apprentice, plus the treatment of little Lolita's problems, he temporarily ignored that the dragon technique practiced by Shi Lin was "moving force".
In fact, the vast majority of demon tribes, no matter what kind of exercises they do not have, can be said to practice "moving exercises". This so-called "moving power" is easy to understand. It means moving, relying on the movement of the body to drive qi and blood, and then activate the inheritance power in the blood. Meditating and entering concentration is considered a "quiet skill". It requires calmness and calmness, so that you can understand the great path and obtain the blessing of the power of the great path.
Therefore, in the stone forest under this giant tree, let’s not worry about whether we can gain something in the end. At least we can’t make mistakes in this process. It is obviously the "moving exercise" of cultivation, but he still wants to meditate there, and the power of blood in the body will naturally rebel. Shi Lin was also obedient, and coupled with his lack of concept of cultivation, he wanted to strictly follow the master's instructions, but in the end he could only suppress and break up the rebellious bloodline forces.
Sure enough, after hearing Ye Zan's words, although Shi Lin did not open his eyes, he immediately jumped up from the ground. Immediately afterwards, he started to move as if he was practicing some kind of fist and kick, just like he did at the Dragon Clan Stone Tablet.
As the movements repeated over and over again, Shi Lin's body also changed again. His black hair was coated with gold, and clouds of golden mist rose up from his body. Especially on his back, the tattoo-like dragon totem clearly emerged again, bursting out golden light in the golden mist, causing the rising golden mist to disappear into the shape of a dragon.
After a while, the golden mist rising from the stone forest condensed into a ferocious dragon shape above the head. The dragon shape looks no different from the Eastern Dragon Clan, but if you look closely, you can see that there are many changes in details. For example, the dragon horns on the heads of the Eastern Dragon Clan were originally shaped like deer antlers, or like tree forks. However, the dragon shape in the stone forest, although the dragon horns are also like the forks of a tree, the texture is closer to the horns of an ox or a sheep.
In the information collected by Ye Zan from the world of science and technology, descriptions of Western dragons often have horns that resemble ox horns and sheep horns. These horns are also called devil horns. For example, before, the Balrog that Ye Zan faced in the fire formation had huge ram's horns on its head, which is why these horns are called devil's horns.
In addition, the head of the Oriental dragon is generally said to be shaped like a camel, or some say like a cow, in short, it is more like a mammal. The head of the Western dragon looks more like a snake or a lizard, which is why it is always called a big lizard. The image of the dragon head on the top of the stone forest is somewhere in between, as if it is changing from one image to another.
There are also dragon bodies. Most Eastern dragons have no wings. Only the legendary dragon ancestors, one named Yinglong, have wings. As for the Western dragons, it can be said that all have wings, and they are basically membrane wings similar to bats, or they can also be called flesh wings. Although the dragon shape on the top of the stone forest does not seem to have wings, if you look closely, you will find that there are vaguely gathered wings on both sides of the body.
All in all, Ye Zan could basically foresee that if Shi Lin continued to practice like this, the dragon shape would probably one day completely transform into the appearance of a Western dragon. After all, the stone forest itself does not have the bloodline of a true dragon. The dragon's shape can now take on the shape of a true dragon only because of the dragon's technique. When the bloodline of the Western Dragon is pure to a certain extent in Shi Lin's body, the Dragon Clan's martial arts will no longer be able to affect the dragon's appearance.
Over there in the stone forest, the shape of the dragon above his head became clearer and clearer. In the rising golden mist, it seemed as if it had a life of its own. Finally, after the dragon shape condensed to a certain extent, he suddenly swung his body, raised his head and roared towards the giant tree.
Originally, after the stone forest changed from silence to movement, the endless leaves on the crown of the giant tree were already shaking without wind. At this time, facing the dragon-shaped roaring up to the sky, leaves finally fell from the crown of the tree.
One piece, two pieces, three pieces... seventeen, eighteen...
Ye Zan was originally quite happy when he saw leaves falling, but when he saw more and more leaves falling, he couldn't help but feel worried again.
To be honest, Ye Zan got thirty-six leaves, which shocked everyone at the time. But now, the number of leaves falling on this side of the stone forest has surpassed that of Ye Zan, but it still hasn't stopped. Every fallen leaf fell on the dragon-shaped body above the stone forest and turned into a scale on the dragon-shaped body. How many scales did this dragon-shaped body have
Ye Zan stopped counting at the end and just watched the dragon shape quietly. As the leaves turned into dragon scales, it became clearer and even more real. Of course, those green leaves did not turn the dragon shape into a green dragon, but turned into gold after turning into scales.
"Wow, little senior brother is so amazing, so many leaves have fallen!" The little Lolita was also very surprised when she looked at the side. She raised her little face to look at the huge crown of the tree, but then said: "The tree is also amazing, and it has not become bald. !”
Hearing the little Loli's exclamation, Ye Zan smiled helplessly, his mood was really indescribably complicated. He wasn't jealous that Shi Lin got more than him, but he was instinctively feeling a little uneasy about it and couldn't decide whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
