It turned out that only two hundred years had passed between the time she traveled through time after her death and the present.
Is it thanks to these broken branches?
She speculated in her heart, looking up at the thick canopy of trees above her head, "For a tree that the young master calls a sacred tree, it must be a rare treasure. How can a tree like this grow to this size in just two hundred years?"
"Of course not."
Si Wuli happily told Xiang Shengduo, "This tree is called the Xuantian Tree. It is an ancient divine creature. One hundred thousand years ago, someone cut off the main trunk and used it to make a magic weapon, causing its vitality to decline.
A thousand years ago, I found this thing, so I sent letters to monks everywhere to collect broken branches of the sacred tree. Most of the broken branches were dead, but a few were unexpected surprises.
About thirty years ago, someone presented a core of wood to the sacred tree, which gave it its present splendor.”
Xiang Sheng listened with great interest and was even more amazed. He couldn't help but ask, "Using divine objects as materials, that magic weapon must be very powerful. I wonder who has such ability?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiang Sheng saw Si Wu Li's brows suddenly frowned and he remained silent.
Xiang Sheng saw this and gently put down the sacred branch, adding, "But what did I say wrong? If it's inconvenient, you can just pretend you didn't hear it."
Si Wu Li remained silent, as if he had suddenly lost interest in talking to Xiang Sheng.
We were having a great chat just now...
Xiang Sheng pursed her lips slightly and said, "Sir, you have things to do, so I won't bother you any more."
She stood up and was about to leave when her sleeve was suddenly pulled at a corner.
Slightly startled, Xiang Sheng turned around and saw Si Wu Li pulling his sleeve, with an inexplicable expression.
"Miss Xiang, you... misunderstood."
Si Wuli's eyes were filled with earnestness: "I was inconsiderate. This matter involves taboos and we shouldn't talk about it lightly and disturb the secrets of heaven.
I was just checking the secrets of the heavens, so it's hard for me to respond to what the young lady said, not because I'm impatient.
After saying that, Si Wu Li waved his sleeves, and the space inside the sacred tree immediately expanded, enveloping the world of the two of them.
After hearing Si Wuli's explanation, Xiang Sheng's unhappiness had long since vanished. He sat down again and looked around the sacred tree space: "Is everything all right now?"
Seeing her expression, Si Wu Li felt relieved and continued, "The sacred tree is still in its recovery period and cannot completely block the secrets of heaven. However, as long as you don't mention its name, it should be fine.
I was not born a hundred thousand years ago, and all I saw and heard was from the ancient books of my clan, so I cannot distinguish true from false. Young lady, just listen to this, and do not believe it too much."
Xiang Sheng's eyes were bright, "Now that you say that, sir, I'm even more curious."
Si Wuli smiled dumbly: "It is human nature that the word taboo always strikes a chord with many people. That is why I took a closer look at the classics of my clan.
Taboos cannot be revealed by printing, and the classics don't say much about them. I only know that the magic weapon that person refined is related to the Way of Heaven, and it is precisely because of his violation of the Way of Heaven that his existence is considered a taboo."
"Going against the way of heaven?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, "Since it would offend the way of heaven, why would he do that?"
"There are many different speculations in later generations."
Si Wu Li shook his head. "In my opinion, these are all fabricated stories. If their motives were known to others, it would undoubtedly be detrimental to the Way of Heaven. The Way of Heaven will certainly not allow any rumors related to them to spread to the world."
Xiang Sheng nodded repeatedly as he listened, "Sir, what you said is indeed reasonable."
“…”
Time goes by day by day.
Under Si Wu Li's deliberate guidance, Xiang Sheng quickly became familiar with everything about Leng Zhu Hai, much more familiar than in his previous life.
On the second day after I learned the technique of entering and exiting the Cold Bamboo Sea, Yuan Mo brought another basket of fresh spiritual fruits.
"Miss Xiang, what I'm sending you this time is truly purchased from several cultivation planets."
Yuan Mo put down the basket. "According to the master's request, there are a total of 138 kinds of spiritual fruits in here, no two are the same, and they are all beneficial to the soul. I'm almost running my legs off. Can you help me put in a few good words in front of the master? It's not too much, right?"
Xiang Sheng was sitting in a basket carrying spiritual fruits. When he heard what Yuan Mo said, he burst out laughing. "You've followed your master for thousands of years. Your relationship with him must be closer than mine. Why are you still asking me for help?"
Yuan Mo rolled his eyes almost to the sky, "Miss Xiang, are you really blind? My master treats you very differently. Although he treats me and Si Yan well, he treats you the most differently!"
A hint of smile flashed across Xiang Sheng's eyes: "Really? Your young master has never had a female confidant before?"
"Where did this confidante come from? Your previous situation in the clan..."
Yuan Mo was halfway through his words when he suddenly realized something and immediately stopped talking. "I still have to take care of Leng Zhuhai, so I don't have time to chat with you."
After saying that, Yuan Mo didn't wait for Xiang Sheng to react, turned around and transformed into his original form and flew away.
