After the Shengjing people's surprise battle, Saint Ye Shaman returned to his residence in the Eternal Tree under the advice of his followers.
Being seriously injured, she needed a lot of wood spirit energy to recover from her injuries. At the same time, she suffered a surprise attack in the center of Ye Shuihe's capital, which made it difficult for people to have confidence in Ye Shuihe's defense. Although Ye Shuihe's capital is prosperous, three The open structure of the city, and Ah Ye's disposition, which has no self-consciousness of the king at all, made his capital appear to be riddled with holes and open to infiltration during the war era.
Perhaps Shaman himself has no objection to this, but after careful analysis, Zhan Ziye feels that there is no safety at all in this place.
Wang Lu's idea of going to the upper reaches of the Yeshui River alone to intercept him was correct, but it's a pity that the Wangyue siblings used the treasure chest to isolate him and failed to stop the Shengjing team. But the crux of the problem is that Wang Lu just walked all the way along the river, and he can see the key points of attack and defense of Ye Shuihe. Ah Ye has been king for so many years, why can't he remember to set up checkpoints in key areas? It's really hard not to be more careful when you form an alliance with such a person
Therefore, under the strong request of the servant Zhan Ziye, Shaman had no choice but to leave Ye Shuihe and return to her hometown.
The Eternal Tree is a towering tree. Before the actual visit, it is hard for anyone to imagine that it will be so huge. This giant tree is located at the end of the lower reaches of the Yeye River and spans the banks of the river. It is taller than any mountain in this world. They are all more majestic and tall, and the crowns of the trees are completely hidden above the clouds, covering the sky and the sun. It is said that half of the light in this world comes from the glowworms that inhabit the crown of the tree. When the time comes and the glowworms fly out of their habitats, it will be daytime under the Eternal Tree. It's night in the glow bug lounge. According to legend, the Eternal Tree supports the sky and the earth in this world. If the Eternal Tree collapses, the whole world will be destroyed. However, no matter how powerful a creature is, it is absolutely impossible to destroy this big tree, so it is named the Eternal Tree.
In this sacred and eternal tree, there are hundreds of millions of living beings, and these living beings have built their own cities in the tree. At the core of it is the residence of the "Holy Leaf". It is the place where she practiced meditation and dealt with various affairs.
However, when this holy leaf married the queen of Ye Shuihe, she lived in Ye Shuihe most of the time, and rarely lived in Eternal Tree.
When Shaman returned to the Eternal Tree under the protection of Zhan Ziye, her restless mood suddenly calmed down. Shaman thought that she had been used to the dense water vapor on the Yeshui River for many years, but after all, this place surrounded by green leaves was more suitable for her.
In the next few days, when Ah Ye went in and out of Jinyu City repeatedly, Shaman concentrated on recuperating.
In the raid of the Shengjing team, Shaman's master and servant were actually under the greatest pressure, because Shaman not only had to take care of herself, Ah Ye, but also two children who had no fighting power at all. Her own strength was divided into four parts, and Sheng Jing suddenly focused her fire. If Zhan Ziye hadn't responded in time, Shaman would have almost died on the spot
"Speaking of which, all this is really thanks to you."
On the hospital bed, Shaman's face was already a bit bloody, but compared with the dignified and elegant posture at the beginning, she still looked haggard. The woman quietly breathed the quiet air on the Eternal Tree, and adjusted her body little by little.
And beside the hospital bed, Zhan Ziye quietly accompanied him, holding a book made of leaves in his hand, and spoke with great interest. Hearing Shaman mentioning him, Zhan Ziye said without raising his head: "You and I are both damaged. If you die, I will be expelled immediately. On the contrary, even if I am expelled, if you can persist until the end and get the Five Spirit Blood Crown , I can still share the benefits, so based on this simple logic, it is only natural for me to help you."
Shaman turned her head, her watery eyes swept over Zhan Ziye.
"You are a strange person."
"Given your average IQ and academic civilization level, I can understand your evaluation of me." Zhan Ziye replied casually, continuing to turn the pages in his hands, but he couldn't hold back the sneer at the corner of his mouth while reading.
Shaman asked curiously, "Is there any question?"
"Why don't you ask the other way around, is there any problem?" Zhan Ziye said, closed the book, and asked, "Do you usually practice these spells?"
Shaman said: "This is the inheritance of the eternal tree..."
"Enough is enough. No wonder the Eternal Tree has such a favorable location, but it is not ranked among the top three in this world." Zhan Ziye commented unceremoniously, "The messy spell system and the inheritance that does not seek to improve are really wasteful. I originally saw You have good spell attainment, I thought you should have good inheritance and growth, but looking at you like this, it is a joke to want to get the Five Spirits Blood Crown."
Shaman was stunned for a while, then smiled generously: "I didn't..."
Zhan Ziye said: "I didn't expect to monopolize the crown? Wake up, I don't know how optimistic you are about the king of Ye Shuihe, but it is impossible for him to persevere until the end."
Sharman said, "You don't know him..."
Zhan Ziye said coldly: "You don't know Wang Lu either. You don't even know who we are going to face in the end."
"Wang Lu? That earth spirit? He is indeed powerful, but..."
"You don't even know how powerful he is." Zhan Ziye said, "Our biggest enemy is Jinyu City, but our last enemy must be Wang Lu, the Five Spirit Blood Crown, and there is only one winner, so we have to face each other sooner or later. As for him, if you want to win, you must never relax your vigilance against him, and Ah Ye... will never raise your vigilance against him."
Thinking of Ah Ye's temperament, Shaman could only smile helplessly.
"Aye can't count on it, and Zhou Mumu can't expect it either, so after all, it's your task to target Wang Lu. Unfortunately, it seems that it's better to just surrender." Zhan Ziye said indignantly, but changed his mind after speaking. , "No, you can't just give up like this... In this way, while you are recuperating, I will reorganize the spell system for you. If you rebuild the spell system according to my method, there may still be salvation. Well, that's it. Bar."
After hearing this, Shaman was only dumbfounded. It's been a while since she summoned this wood-moving blood spirit, but she didn't know that he was actually such a proud and lawless person in essence.
However, thinking of his meticulous care and care when he was seriously injured in the past few days, especially thinking of Zhan Ziye's desperate rescue that day when the people of Shengjing were struck by thunder, Shaman couldn't get angry at all. So she had no choice but to say euphemistically: "I respect your strength and knowledge as a blood spirit, but the inheritance of the Eternal Tree for thousands of years has its own profound and mysterious aspects, you..."
Zhan Ziye sneered and said: "Ha, you want to say that my strength may not be superior to yours, so what right do you have to underestimate your inheritance? I thought so too, but these days I look at your inheritance classics, I finally confirmed one thing: your inheritance system is totally nonsensical. I don’t know how lucky you are to have the current level of cultivation. Of course, you won’t believe it if you talk about it, so I will demonstrate it for you. You are convinced."
After speaking, he stood up, a little green light bloomed on the palm of his right hand, and a crystal seed condensed and formed from the void. After a while, the shell opened, and a young sapling came out, and quickly grew to be as tall as a person. Zhan Ziye bent down and threw down the small tree in his hand, only to see the roots and branches of the small tree shrank and bent, forming human-like limbs. Several roots are entangled together, forming powerful legs to support them.
"This, this is..."
Shaman opened her eyes wide in disbelief, subconsciously wanted to stand up from the hospital bed, but the injuries in her body stopped her and made her lie back with a groan of pain.
Zhan Ziye said lightly: "This is the guardian tree spirit of your Eternal Tree that has been passed down for thousands of years, how about it? I can freely use the essence of the Eternal Tree to shape life. According to the records in the ancient books, I now have the rank of Golden Leaf. Ye is only one step away. Then, Master Sheng Ye, tell me, can you do the same thing as me even when you are in good condition."
Shaman's face was heavy and she was speechless. Protecting the tree spirit is not a difficult spell, but even if she is revered as a holy leaf, she cannot be as handy as Zhan Ziye. And the real problem is...
Zhan Ziye didn't get the inheritance of the Eternal Tree. Although he is a wood-carrying blood spirit, his skills are complicated and have nothing to do with the Eternal Tree. How can he use the essence of the Eternal Tree to shape life? This is a complete departure from the fundamentals of the Eternal Tree
"I have all kinds of skills. Unless there are very strict skills for aptitude, there is no spell in the world that I can't learn or use. It's ridiculous to say that this supernatural power has never worked for the skills that I really care about. Lu's Formless Art, Zhu Shiyao's Star Sword... However, your eternal tree's ten thousand year inheritance seems to be nothing more than this."
Shaman was still dumbfounded, her heart was so shaken that she didn't know what to say.
Zhan Ziye smiled: "However, compared to you, I just have a better teacher, and I have nothing to be proud of, and looking at it from another perspective, you can cultivate to your current level under such a crude inheritance. Your talent and aptitude are commendable." Zhan Ziye said with a serious face, "So, I hope you can seriously follow my footsteps in the future. We don't have much time, so we can improve a little bit."
Shaman was silent for a long time, finally bit her lips and nodded.
Outside the Eternal Tree and Holy Leaf residence, a cheerful voice suddenly broke the tranquility of the place.
"Haha, senior brother Ziye, I'm here to play with you again."
"etc… "
It's a pity that no one in the room would stop the person coming, kicked the door open with one kick, and then stood dumbfounded at the door.
In the room, Master Sheng Ye and her servants were sitting on the hospital bed, holding hands with each other, both of them were blushing and covered in fine sweat...then, they were numb all over.
Seeing this strange scene, Wang Lu was stunned at the door for a moment, then quietly closed the door under the astonished eyes of the master and slave, turned and left.
"Wait, don't go" came Shaman's panicked voice behind her.
"Don't leave? Do you want to stay and have fun together?" Wang Lu sneered and said, "I won't tease you."
