"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
The day after the wedding, Li Changzhou took the divine tree out.
In order not to affect the solar system, or even the Milky Way, he spent some time teleporting to the Triangulum Galaxy, 3 million light-years away.
He found a binary star system in which one star had reached the end of its life and was beginning to expand.
Because of its proximity to another star, the massive star was stretched into a teardrop shape by the powerful gravity, with its tip pointing towards the other star.
The dreamlike colors and the magnificent shape, as if forged by the gods, filled Li Changzhou with awe as he gazed at them from afar.
He can now destroy planets the size of the moon, but before him lies a star dying, being pulled into a spindle shape by another star.
The material is heated to extremely high temperatures and releases X-rays.
The plasma or ionized gas that makes up a star begins to escape.
These substances or gases form dreamlike nebulae in the universe.
With Li Changzhou's divine body and the realm of an Earth Immortal, he could hear sounds thousands of times lower than the hearing range of ordinary people.
He heard a muffled hum coming from two stars.
The sound also changed as the star's surface churned, like the whisper of a gigantic monster.
He took out the Earth Root and blew out a breath of magic power, causing the divine tree to expand instantly. After the combined efforts of all the players, the divine tree's main body is now tens of thousands of meters tall.
If placed on Earth, it would absolutely blot out the sky, and its root system is even more exaggerated, enough to cover the entire Xia Kingdom.
However, compared to the binary star system before us, it is not even a speck of dust.
The divine tree was bathed in light, each leaf dyed orange-gold, and viewed from the front, it resembled a golden tree, its enormous, planet-like shadow stretching long behind it.
Li Changzhou, wearing the 'Prophet's Wind Chime' at his waist, sat upright at the very top of the divine tree, as if on an endless golden grassland.
The Black Hand took out a peach from the Honey Pot World, slowly clenched his palm, and squeezed out a vast amount of magical power.
A layer of black light outlined the golden body of the divine tree.
Black Mist - Time Stop
Time began to accelerate.
In addition to the 'Hengsha World Fruit', Li Changzhou also made the divine tree bear 'Qi Fruit'.
The mastermind "ate" the peaches of immortality, accelerating the timeline of the divine tree. He then ate the "Qi Fruit" and began cultivating the Bone Forging Chapter of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique.
When one's mental strength is exhausted due to the excruciating pain of bone forging, one should pause cultivation, or contemplate the passage of time, or comprehend the supernatural powers of the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques," or peruse the first volume of the "Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals" given by the Queen Mother of the West.
He also watched the anime 'Chizuku' when he had some free time.
I should have let that useless guy perform a handstand in a skirt in front of the enemy!
Master Roshi would be instantly killed.
Three months later, four small golden fruits appeared on the branches of the lush 'Hengsha World' of the divine tree. In addition, there were also some peaches, qi fruits, and diseased fruits.
When you take the Kalanchoe pinnata back into your hand, it looks exactly like a thriving potted ornamental tree.
Li Changzhou was teleported back to the Heavenly Court, and then from the Heavenly Court back to the Honey Pot World—this was all so that he could appear directly in the Heavenly Court when he left the Honey Pot World in the future.
"Isn't three enough? Adding one more wastes a lot of time," Li Qianxia said, puzzled, as she reached out to pick one.
Yang Qinglan and Yaochi also looked at Li Changzhou with suspicion.
“I plan to give the fourth one to the Queen Mother of the West,” Li Changzhou explained. “She has given us so many gifts. The Hengsha World Fruit may not be of much use to her, but it is rare and it is a token of our goodwill. By the way—”
He paused for a moment: "I wanted to ask her if there's anything she needs our help with."
“That’s true.” Yaochi nodded thoughtfully. “If she’s asking us for favors for no reason, I’d start to suspect that she likes you too.”
"Don't owe anyone favors." Yang Qinglan agreed with Li Changzhou's approach.
Even without the 'World Fruit of Hengsha', relying on the peaches of immortality, nectar, scriptures and scrolls provided by the Queen Mother, their strength has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past three months.
"Qinglan, you're still the same as ever. Stop calling me Goddess of Gusha, call me Fairy of Heartlessness instead," Li Qianxia teased.
Yang Qinglan dismissed it, saying indifferently:
“When I was studying anthropology, a female teacher repeatedly mentioned a sentence: Many of the human sufferings stem from placing too much hope in a relationship. She hoped that all of you would focus on your careers and not rely on anyone. I have forgotten the knowledge from the anthropology, but I have always remembered this sentence.”
“Our marriage law professor said the same thing,” Li Changzhou recalled.
"Really?" Li Qianxia asked, puzzled.
Li Changzhou stared at her for a long time. Li Qianxia closed her left eye shyly, gave him a wink, and then said, "I'm going into seclusion. No one is allowed to disturb me before I come out!"
She took her 'World of Sands Fruit' and hid in her own World of Sands.
After Yaochi left, Li Changzhou pulled Yang Qinglan, who was half-heartedly resisting, and they spent some time intimately together in her world of endless sands before heading to the scenic Yaochi.
The scenic beauty of Yaochi remains as breathtaking as a fairyland.
"His Majesty."
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"May Your Majesty be boundless and immortal, living as long as Heaven!"
Unlike their previous visit when they remained unknown, this time the fairies and goddesses who saw Li Changzhou all stood up and bowed in greeting.
This reminded Li Changzhou that he was still some kind of Heavenly Emperor.
As the saying goes, one's environment shapes one's temperament, and one's upbringing shapes one's physique. But he was either forced to dance in a honeyed world or working as a fruit farmer in the universe. What kind of self-awareness or temperament could he possibly have as a Heavenly Emperor?
The Queen Mother of the West received him on a suspended mountain.
The two sat on a protruding platform halfway up the suspended mountain, with wisps of white clouds drifting around their feet.
"This is a small token of our appreciation for Your Majesty's congratulatory gift." Li Changzhou handed over the 'Hengsha World Fruit' that he had picked along with a section of branch.
