The world of cultivation, the ancient sacred mountain.
A quiet pond, with sunlight shining through, shadows cast on the rocks, and an old tree taking root on the bluestone of the pond.
The old tree has twisted roots that twist and turn like a coiled dragon, and is covered with lush green leaves. It is nine meters from top to bottom, and looks exceptionally short compared to the surrounding towering trees.
He has existed for nearly 100,000 years. When he opened his mind, in order to understand the world, he would produce some fruits on his trunk, attracting birds to swallow them to help him open his mind. Then, as a reward, the birds would fly all over the world, and if they could live to the end of their lives, they would come back to tell about their life.
This method of getting information is extremely inefficient. Even if you release tens of thousands of birds, not even one may come back. But the old tree never tires of it and keeps releasing birds.
Because this is in line with nature and in line with his wishes
Birds fly high and leaves fall back to their roots, it's all natural.
At that time, the world still heard of Taoism and the Supreme Dao of the World. The old tree thought at that time that if one day he could rise from the ground, he would definitely visit Taoism and learn the method of the Supreme Dao of the World.
He was still young at that time, with little knowledge, and he envied the colorful world outside.
Later he heard about the battle between the dragon and the phoenix. The two tribes fought a great battle and the world was almost destroyed. This time, many birds came back because they needed to flee.
At the same time, they also brought back many lives.
The old tree had lived for 10,000 years at this time and had acquired some Taoist skills, so it was able to avoid the calamity from the dragon and the phoenix.
They talk about how powerful the dragon and the phoenix are, they talk about how strong the dragon clan is and how powerful the phoenix clan is, but no one can tell why the dragon and the phoenix started a war?
When it was about 20,000 years old, the returning birds no longer mentioned Taoism, and only fragments of words were heard about the unity of all Taoism.
Legend has it that someone framed all the Taos together and reopened the order of heaven and earth.
Lao Shu didn’t understand, he was too weak at that time.
Although he has lived for 20,000 years, he is a plant, without flesh and blood, and has no self. He becomes a spirit after birth, and is very dull, muddy all day and night. In 20,000 years, he is actually only awake for 200 years.
The old tree is not anxious about this, nor does it know why it should be anxious.
Continue to practice.
When awake, listen to the birds, telling of the changes in the world. Most of the time, who is invincible, who dominates the world, and then the youth are replaced by another generation.
Although the top masters of the world can easily live for thousands of years, it takes them most of that time to reach the top, and the rest of that time is spent fighting against the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man. The peak of each generation of the strongest usually only lasts 500 years.
The old tree spirit heard many names, but could hardly remember any of them.
Because it was too common, for his long life, it was like the weeds at the roots of his tree, changing generation after generation, and yet it seemed as if nothing had changed.
But the strong of heaven and earth are becoming weaker and weaker.
Unconsciously, the old tree spirit found that he had become the strongest in the world. His roots extended into the ground, and his spiritual consciousness swept through all things in the world. The highest level was no more than entering the Tao.
Even those who enter Taoism are not necessarily pure, and their entry depends entirely on their own understanding of Taoism.
A feeling of melancholy welled up in my heart.
The old tree spirit isolated himself and planned to wait for a few thousand more years. Perhaps the world would be a little more interesting by then.
Until one day, the sound of a sword resounded through the sky.
It was a familiar sword intent, a sword intent that had appeared in the ancient times, and had run through the battle between the dragon and the phoenix when he was still weak.
The supreme sword intent.
It is not the sword intent that the younger generations in the past copied based on the blessings of their predecessors.
When the old tree spirit woke up, he saw a woman in white. With the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, she killed the Demon Saint with a sword.
Astonishingly talented and unparalleled in the world.
The old tree spirit asked the bird, "Who is she?"
"Sword Immortal, the most gifted person in the Sword Sect in a thousand years, can master the Heavenly Sword at the age of ten."
"Ten years old? Not even enough for me to shed my leaves once. Talent is indeed rare and precious."
The old tree takes five hundred years for spring and another five hundred years for autumn. The woman called the Sword Fairy took only a few decades to complete her thousand-year journey.
Looking back at the ancient times, it was rare in the world for someone to become a Taoist at the age of 500.
What's more, she is a human, born as a mortal creature. Compared with birds and beasts, she has intelligence, but compared with the dragon race, her blood is like mud.
"Help me to see the era of the Sword Immortal."
The old tree spirit became more interested, perhaps because he had not heard of the outside world for too long, or perhaps it was because he saw the unparalleled sword intent again.
Countless years passed, and the one who came back to tell the story was not a bird, but a human being.
A human who also possesses the Supreme Sword Intent.
The sword master is dead.
Outside the small stone pond.
A round-headed tiger demon approached cautiously, followed by a human.
The man had an ordinary appearance, a pair of eyes as cold as a sword, and he wore a light red robe. The red was dark and heavy, like a stain that had been washed countless times but could not be washed away.
In his arms he held a plain iron sword.
The fat tigers did not have the majesty of the roaring mountain kings of the past. They accompanied the man cautiously, and their light-footed appearance made them look more honest.
But how could it dare to show off, because the man behind it was even more terrifying than the sword immortal back then.
The Sword Immortal did at least make a request, but it was just a warning to the demon kings on the hills near Kyushu. The others should eat and drink as usual, but forget about uniting to help out.
We are not related to each other, so who do you think you are?
Those who have grudges against humans in the Taikoo Divine Mountain are usually the demon kings in the outer circle, and many demons in the inner circle have never seen humans in their lives. Because the world is so big, it is not possible to travel all over the Taikoo Divine Mountain in a lifetime, let alone the cultivation world.
But this man suddenly rushed into the ancient sacred mountain and beat all the famous demon kings and demon saints before making his demands.
He needed a precious medicine, one that could reverse the life and death of a powerful human who was infinitely close to being a demon saint.
