Lord Rat raised his two front paws and gestured, outlining a series of strange talismans in front of him.
Suddenly, a layer of flame with strange color burned from the body of the sapling.
The color of the flame is like oxidized silver, shiny silver with a hint of black, and a hint of pure silver in the shiny black. It is very bright, very beautiful, and very strange, but it gives people a very beautiful feeling.
The young saplings screamed hysterically like ducks thrown into a lime pit.
The cry was extremely shrill, and human words could not describe how unpleasant and terrifying it was.
The look it gave Lord Rat was also indescribable.
It is full of resentment, full of hatred, and full of all the hideousness and viciousness in the world.
At the same time, it was filled with fear of Lord Rat, just like a little white rabbit being beaten by a hungry tiger. The tiny sapling twitched violently and could not help but let out a desperate whine: "Mercy...Mercy!"
Lord Rat stood steadily in front of the sapling with his paws behind his back, and said slowly: "You actually tried to take over Tian Ge'er's body! Do you know that Tian Ge'er was raised by Lord Rat with all his heart? If you take over his body... Ugh! You don't have this ability, okay?"
After slapping the burning sapling on the face, Master Rat sneered, "You are also inexperienced. Look, there are countless strange things in the world, but how many of them can really take over a human body?"
"The spirit, soul, ghost, etc. that escape after the death of the human body, this is one. Originally born from the same origin as the human body, it is natural for it to take over the body."
"Those evil spirits are also considered one. The evil spirits transformed from human souls are of course of the same origin as the human body. Those evil spirits that are so-called born and multiplied by nature are actually condensed human souls in the final analysis. They are familiar with taking over other people's bodies, so it is not difficult for them!"
"Besides that, any other creatures that have attained enlightenment, whether demons, evil spirits, or even monsters like you, who can truly possess a human body? The most you can do is make people lose their minds and do all kinds of weird and evil things. That's your limit!"
"After all, the human body is the most perfect body created by heaven and earth. The three souls and seven spirits correspond to the various functions of the human body, and none of them can be missing. If one of them is missing, it is impossible to possess the body."
"It's like a big yellow dog that eats shit and wants to mate with a female whale. This... in Tian Ge'er's words, they are not a good match in size. How can you do this?"
"So, it's impossible for you to take over Tian Ge'er's body."
"But, even if you have this idea, it won't work."
"So, don't blame me for making things difficult for you today!"
"After all, you asked for it and you deserve it!"
Lord Rat stared at the twitching sapling and sighed, "Besides, don't say you are innocent, that you are wronged, and that you are indifferent to the world! You and this old Jingui actually have nothing to do with each other!"
“Master Rat has seen through your roots and understood them!” Two silver rays of light shot out from Master Rat’s eyes, covering the blazing sapling. He said word by word, “Old Jingui’s mind has been shattered by the thunderbolt. There is no doubt about that. Basically, without great luck, it is impossible for it to condense its spirit and cultivate into a great demon.”
“You have nothing to do with the spirit of Old Golden Osmanthus. You are just the last roar of resentment that Old Golden Osmanthus let out before his spirit was annihilated by the thunderbolt. You are a monster formed by the resentment that merged with the shadow of the burning trunk that fell to the ground after the trunk of Old Golden Osmanthus was ignited by the thunderbolt!”
"Hey, you're just a monster! You're not even a ghost! No matter how miserable a ghost is, there's still a remnant of soul! You're a devil, you don't even have a soul!"
The body of the screaming and struggling sapling suddenly froze, and the old face looked at Master Rat in astonishment. It murmured to itself: "I am just a roar of resentment, mixed with a wisp of shadow, a monster formed by resentment? In fact, I am not even a ghost?"
"Yes, you are not even a ghost! So, how can you take over someone else's body?" Lord Rat waved his long tail happily. "Tian Ge'er has some strange things protecting him, so you can't get close to him. Not to mention, there is the wise Lord Rat guarding him, how dare you touch him?"
The resentment and endless malice on the old face gradually dissipated.
The silver-black flame summoned by Lord Rat was extremely useful. It refined the natural vitality of the sapling bit by bit.
But the root of this sapling is this overwhelming resentment and negative energy. As the resentment is refined, its figure becomes hazy and gradually dims.
Lord Rat quickly hooked his claws, and a crack appeared at the root of the old golden osmanthus tree under his feet. A stream of golden old tree essence gushed out from the crack and quickly injected into the body of the sapling.
The body of the sapling suddenly became bright, and quickly turned from a state of nothingness into substance. It sighed with relief, and the thumb-sized sapling began to grow rapidly. After just one hour, it grew to about three inches.
Lord Rat looked at the sapling with a smile, watching it gradually change from black to light blue: "Come on, open your mouth and eat more. Although you are not it, you are still somewhat related to it. So, Lord Rat will make the decision and help you."
"Come on, although you are just a monster without a soul, Master Rat can help you generate a spirit out of thin air. This is not a big deal! Haha, what is a spirit? A spirit is just..."
Countless tiny silver lights flashed in Master Shu's eyes, and his body shuddered. He stopped talking abruptly: "Well, you don't need to worry about what spirits are. It's just like when ordinary people eat, do you still need to worry about where the rice comes from? Just worry about eating!"
The resentment in the sapling was refined bit by bit, and the essence of old golden osmanthus was continuously injected into its body.
Three inches high, five inches high, one foot high...
The essence in Old Golden Osmanthus' body was almost endless. Under the nourishment of this pure essence, after seven days, the sapling had grown to a height of about ten feet. With lush branches and leaves, it was full of vitality. Wisps of light golden light surrounded the dense crown of the tree, and the old face on the trunk also looked much younger, no longer ferocious and vicious as it was when Master Rat first saw it.
Looking at Lord Rat very peacefully and easily, the little sapling… no, the tree demon sighed with emotion and said, “Lord Rat, thank you very much.”
"No thanks, no thanks. It's rare to meet a freak like you. Hey, it just so happens that this big tree stump is a waste if it's just sitting there, so I might as well help you."
"Be good and listen to me. Follow Brother Tian and Master Shu from now on. You will have good food and drink. Good days are ahead."
"Come, try out your innate magical power first, hehe!"
The tree demon nodded vigorously, his body shook and merged into Old Jingui's body, and then streams of light flashed quickly on Old Jingui's body.
The next moment, the old golden osmanthus on Hancui Cliff spewed out countless osmanthus seeds.
Strands of thin golden-green light flew in all directions and landed on the mountains, rivers and hills.
These osmanthus seeds sprouted and grew as soon as they fell to the ground, and tender osmanthus seedlings grew up. On each osmanthus seedling, there was a vague face looming in the distance.
