"My lord, I have finally left the illusion of life and death. Let other strange beasts see my talent and strength. Otherwise, they will probably think that I have been dead for a long time." Taotie said with a bitter face.
Mu Hanyan and Jiang Qiling were speechless. No wonder this guy couldn't wait to transform into human form again. It turned out that he still wanted to show off. After being trapped in the illusion of life and death for nearly a million years, he didn't learn any lessons.
"Forget it, it's up to you." Anyway, this guy doesn't seem to have any major problems except that he likes to brag and show off. At least he is much more friendly than the four ferocious beasts in the legend. Mu Hanyan was too lazy to bother with him anymore.
"Sir, are we going out now?" Seeing that Mu Hanyan no longer objected, Taotie asked happily.
"Don't be in a hurry. Do you know if there are any rare treasures in the Black Wood Prison that can help the Ancient Tree of Life recover its vitality?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"The ancient tree of life, didn't it disappear millions of years ago?" Taotie looked at Mu Hanyan in surprise.
Even Taotie was so surprised. It was obvious that the Ancient Tree of Life disappeared from the Holy Continent earlier than he had imagined. Mu Hanyan also confirmed her guess again that the seed of the Ancient Tree of Life most likely came to the Holy Continent from the Divine Martial Realm along with her soul.
This also confirmed Mu Hanyan's other hypothesis: only by relying on the Ancient Tree of Life could she perfectly combine her vital energy and spiritual power to form another completely new power. Perhaps, that was the legendary power of God. Otherwise, why would she bring the seeds of the Ancient Tree of Life to the Sacred Continent?
Relying on the Phoenix Nirvana Fire, her mind had already undergone a qualitative change. What followed was constant cultivation, honing, and improvement. However, for any living being, the spiritual and physical cultivation were two separate levels, both interdependent and independent, and neither of them could be missing.
If she couldn't restore the Ancient Tree of Life to life, even with a qualitative change in her divine consciousness, she would still not be able to surpass her limits.
"I have a seed left by an ancient tree of life, but its life is about to end. I must find a way to find rare treasures to restore its life." Mu Hanyan explained.
"I see. Shenmu Prison is made up of many natural treasures that can restore life, but they may not be useful to ancient trees of life." This time, Taotie did not brag anymore. He thought for a while and said.
"Take me to look for it first." Mu Hanyan was somewhat disappointed after hearing Taotie's answer, but even if there was only a glimmer of hope, she was unwilling to give up, so she insisted on speaking to Taotie.
"Okay, let's set off now, and by the way, let the descendants of the beast tribe see the style of me, the Great Taotie." Taotie let out a wild roar, and with Mu Hanyan and others, he rushed deeper into the Black Wood Prison with high spirits.
"Master Priest, what exactly is the Destiny Star Plate?" On the way, Gao Weihu couldn't help but ask Mu Hanyan out of curiosity.
"Have you heard of the Divine Martial Realm, which is the legendary divine realm, another plane of power that transcends the Sacred Continent?" Mu Hanyan asked.
Gao Weihu shook his head. He had heard of those legends. He had also heard that outside this continent, above the Nine Heavens, there was an even more powerful cultivation plane. Those legendary gods had broken through the void, transcended heaven and earth, and went to such a plane. However, when it came to the Divine Martial Realm, he knew nothing about it.
"Once, there was a powerful warrior in the Divine Martial Realm. After his death, his soul remained immortal. He came to the Holy Continent and re-entered the cycle of reincarnation. Her followers followed her here to protect her..." Mu Hanyan slowly narrated the origin of the Divine Protection and the Destiny Star Plate.
Mu Hanyan was deeply moved by Gao Weihu's previous desperate defense, and she no longer had any doubts about him. As her strength gradually increased, her identity would eventually be revealed, so it would be better to let him know some secrets as soon as possible.
"So, this Destiny Star Plate has such an origin. Then, who is the person that our guardian gods have been looking for and protecting for generations?" After hearing Mu Hanyan's words, Gao Weihu felt his blood boiling.
If it were in the past, he would never have believed such a nearly mythical legend. However, after experiencing the battle with Zhan Yuan, he already knew that most of those legends were true. Even those god-like strong men had come to the Holy Continent nearly a million years ago. Having personally experienced the mystery of destiny, how could he doubt Mu Hanyan's words?
"If I say that person is me, would you believe it?" Mu Hanyan said lightly.
Gao Weihu had actually already guessed the answer, and was just waiting for Mu Hanyan to confirm it herself. He gazed deeply at Mu Hanyan, slowly bending down, his gaze becoming more determined and persistent.
The earth suddenly shook slightly, and then a rumbling groan like thunder was heard in the ears.
The sound grew louder and louder, and the shaking of the earth became more and more violent.
In the blink of an eye, a herd of nearly a hundred exotic beasts appeared in sight.
Seeing Mu Hanyan and others, the beasts suddenly stopped, but there was a crazy murderous intent in their eyes.
Mu Hanyan subconsciously tightened her grip on the sword. Although she had mastered the methods of controlling the laws of fire, earth and ice, her combat power had increased again, but the defense of the alien beasts was too strong and there were too many of them. If these nearly a hundred alien beasts swarmed over her, she would definitely feel no pressure at all.
Gao Weihu and Jiang Qiling each held their weapons, ready to attack at any time.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, they are just some juniors, I will tell them to get out of here right away." At this moment, Taotie walked up to them carelessly.
Mu Hanyan and the others relaxed, then tensed. They'd forgotten about this guy. As one of the four fierce beasts, he'd been considered the strongest and most prestigious among the Blackwood Prison beasts since the Phoenix Clan left. With him around, what else was there to worry about? They all put away their swords and axes at the same time.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, but you've become more and more courageous. You even dare to shout in front of me. Back then, even your great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather didn't dare to breathe in front of me. Okay, okay, you have nothing to do here, just get out of here." Taotie walked towards the beasts, waving his hand, with his nose turned up in the airs, and said with the airs of a great man, looking like he was chasing away flies.
That’s right, with his strength and prestige as the Great Taotie, these strange beasts are not much different from flies in his eyes.
As expected, it is the Taotie, one of the four ferocious beasts in the legend. Mu Hanyan finally saw how majestic this guy is, and felt a little emotional in her heart.
"Roar!" Suddenly, a ground ankylosaur roared wildly and rushed towards Taotie with all four hooves.
"Bang!" The defenseless Taotie was knocked to the ground.
