"Alas, if it was Xiao Ling'er who came out with me, she would have used her something-or-other disk to check, and we wouldn't have encountered this."
“…”
In a bird's nest that was almost the size of a football field, Chengying was holding a small flag in his hand, waving it around boredly.
The flag emitted a faint glow, maintaining the protective shield surrounding the two people.
Outside the shield, a huge strange bird, whose eyeball alone was as big as a person, was lying next to the shield, seemingly resting.
After discovering that its attack could not break through the shield, the strange bird no longer paid any attention to the two men.
It wasn't very hungry anyway.
"You also got stuck in a strange place the last time you went out with Xiao Ling'er, right? You're such an unlucky kid."
“…………”
Chenghui took a deep breath and decided not to say anything.
What if one of my words offends my senior sister and she opens the shield and throws me out?
Although he was 99% sure that his senior sister would not harm him.
But what if?
"Where are we?"
"You think I'd know?"
"Uh." Chenghui was stunned.
Yes, the world is so big, and there are so many things that we have never seen. Even if Chengying is very intelligent and knows everything, he may not know where they are.
But Chengying said happily: "You have such confidence in me, Senior Sister. That's great!"
"This should be the Jianmu Jie Tree."
"It's called a paradise, but it's full of dangers. Monster plants and strange beasts abound. Even this tree itself will prey on living beings."
"It's like a small world, connected to the outside world without any barriers."
"It's weird, but everything about it is like a girl in a brothel, opening her clothes to you."
"It's a magic weapon, but no one can refine it."
"...In short, it's just a tree."
…
Jianmu is a tree that is destroyed?
"Then, why did this Jianmu Jie Tree appear here?"
"You led it here."
"..." Chenghui kept silent, waiting for Chengying's next words.
“…” Chengying didn’t say anything.
“…”
“…”
"Do you really think I led you here?" Chenghui couldn't help but ask.
"It was just an angry remark." Chengying said, "You are an adult now, you should learn to keep your composure."
Who can remain calm in front of you?!
Chenghui suddenly had the urge to go into seclusion to practice after returning, and not come out until he formed the golden elixir.
"Some powerful beings have speculated that the Jianmu tree is a law. It exists between heaven and earth, invisible and colorless, without trace or cause, and only manifests itself in the world under specific circumstances."
"It last appeared seven hundred and sixty-four years ago in the sea of the eastern Xingyang Province."
"The book records that the sea waves surged, demonic birds scattered, and the tree connected heaven and earth. The twenty-eight surrounding islands were completely devoured by it, blocking out the sun and the moon. The sky was dark, the earth and the sea seemed to be shattered, and the spiritual energy was disordered, directly affecting the mainland..."
The more Chengying spoke, the more serious his expression became.
After thinking for a while, Cheng Ying said quietly, "I feel that the Jianmu Tribulation Tree appeared because the Cangxia Sect is about to enter the world."
Chenghui swallowed his saliva.
Because this reason was far beyond Chenghui's acceptance.
He was only in the early stage of Xudan, and at most he could play a role in the affairs of Zhengxuan Sect. In front of something that affected the fate of the Tiandao world, he was too insignificant.
"...Then why did it appear next to us?"
Even now, the feeling of being deprived of all ability to think and act still suffocates Chenghui.
If Chengying's protective magic weapon had not taken effect, they would have already started turning into bird droppings.
"You are stupid, we are carrying the news that Cangxia Sect intends to join the Immortal Alliance."
"But why doesn't it go directly to Cangxia Sect?"
"I can't beat him."
The answer is simple and straightforward.
But it is very logical.
"Then, can we still go out?"
"Although the bird next to it is not very intelligent, its strength is almost at the level of a demon king, and it can almost be considered a golden elixir cultivator."
"Birds like this." Chengying pointed outside. Through the cracks in the branches of the bird's nest, the two could see a dense mass of black dots, as dense as mosquitoes flying in a mating flight. "Let's say there are one out of ten thousand, no, a hundred thousand, how many there would be?"
“…”
"Wait for death, Junior Brother."
Chenghui stared at Chengying, as if waiting for a reversal.
"Why are you looking at me? Even before I die, I won't practice dual cultivation with you. You and I are fellow disciples, and dual cultivation is against human ethics. What's more, my heart is already with Sect Master Lu."
“……………………”
Chenghui's head was aching.
He now strongly suspected that some of Cheng Ling's thinking and habits were learned from her.
There was a long silence.
Cheng Hui suddenly asked, "Senior Sister, do you think Sect Master Lu will come to save us?"
"Disaster."
Cheng Ying shook his head and said, "If we rely on the Cangxia Sect's mountain gate, with its inherited mountain protection formation that's counted for epochs, the elders from each peak, the sect's guardian beasts, various magical weapons and immortal treasures, elite disciples... plus Sect Master Lu, we might be able to withstand this Jianmu Tribulation Tree."
"But if someone were to break in alone, rescue us, and leave safely... even Sect Master Lu wouldn't be able to do it. Even if he could, it would probably cost a huge price."
"What's more, we only met him once, oh, you met him twice. We are not related, so why would he come to save us?"
"Just because I'm incredibly beautiful, stunningly beautiful, so stunning that I can make fish sink to the bottom of their lungs, geese fall to the ground, and the moon and flowers blush...?"
