Chapter 2
Looking at the seeds that showed no signs of life, the two little ones were very sad.
Although the lives in the world of cultivation are very tenacious, even Ying Huai's original body has a tenacious vitality.
But no matter how tenacious a life is, when the main body is completely damaged and it has only one way out, and is ready to shrink back into the seed form to save its life, the seed will be damaged before it can transform. I have never heard of a life that can continue to live like this.
"Let's replant the Huaihuai trees. Maybe there's still hope!"
After being sad for a while, Songsong was still unwilling to give up. He picked up the broken seed that showed no signs of life, turned to look at Lan Que who was still sobbing and shedding tears beside him, and made a suggestion.
"Alright! Let's find the best place to plant it! This place has been destroyed and all the spiritual energy has been consumed. We definitely can't let Huaihuai sprout here!"
When Lan Que heard Songsong's proposal, although tears welled up in her eyes, she nodded firmly.
He even took the surrounding environment into consideration and began flapping his injured wings, flying around, trying to find what he called the best place to take root.
Songsong held Yinghuai's seeds and kicked his legs on the ground to start walking towards a place beyond the impact range.
Although they needed to find a suitable place for Ying Huai to plant his seeds and take root, they also needed to leave this place as soon as possible, which was also not suitable for recuperation.
When Songsong was holding Ying Huai's seeds and passing the center of the fight between the two men, he seemed to smell something, his ears twitched, and he turned his head to look in one direction.
It looked like an empty place after being swept by the impact, but Songsong inexplicably felt that there was something over there, and his heart trembled.
Although he didn't know what this thing was used for, he just felt that it should be useful to Huai.
With such vague and uncertain thoughts, Songsong stopped, ran in that direction, and began to search inch by inch.
Finally, he saw a broken box in the middle of a pile of broken stones, and the Tianyun Fruit inside, which had completely lost its luster and shriveled up.
"You're pathetic, too. You grew up there perfectly well, and yet you suffered this misfortune. Now that you're broken, they don't want you anymore."
Songsong looked at the shriveled fruit, and the trembling feeling in his heart disappeared. He didn't know what use such a Tianyun Fruit that had lost its function was. He could only stretch out his little claws, hold the shriveled fruit in his Maohuhu's arms, and continue to go in the direction where Lan Que flew away.
Although Lan Que is not very powerful in combat, he is a famous searching spirit beast in the Tianyuan Secret Realm. He has a strong sense of where spiritual energy gathers and where secret treasures gather.
Even though he had never been there, if he wanted to find it, there was nothing he couldn't find.
For this reason, some people outside who are more familiar with spiritual birds like him will try to get one back to form a bond with the younger generation.
Therefore, the Lanque population is becoming smaller and smaller, and now there is only one in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
He was thrown into the Tianyuan Secret Realm which had just been opened by his parents while they were escaping.
This is also one of the reasons why the great cultivators outside have not discovered him. Those who can enter the Tianyuan Secret Realm are all juniors who have not yet known him, and those who know him have progressed because of the rules of the secret realm.
This allowed him to escape the disaster, be born and grow up safely.
"Dig a hole! Let's plant the Huaihuai tree. This is the best place I could find using the secret method I inherited. The Huaihuai tree has a great chance of sprouting here!"
Even when Lan Que said this, he himself didn't quite believe it.
Songsong certainly knew Ying Huai's current situation. If it weren't for a great opportunity, Ying Huai might never be able to sprout again in his lifetime.
He sharpened his claws with the box he had picked up before with some sadness. After making sure his claws were ready, he stretched out his claws and started digging the ground.
The box containing the Tianyun Fruit was made of a special material. Even Song Song, who was considered to have some strength in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, could only leave some scratches when he used it to sharpen his claws. The place chosen by Lan Que was even more bizarre.
Songsong waved his claws and dug the ground until sparks came out, but he still couldn't dig the hole.
“…”
"Are you sure this is a suitable place to grow Sophora japonica?"
Songsong looked at the tips of his claws that had been worn down, was silent for a moment, then looked up and asked Lan Que.
The soil is so hard that even if the Huai tree still has a chance to sprout, it will be suppressed, right?
"I'm sure of it!..."
Lan Que jumped on the ground, moved closer to Songsong, and also stretched out its claws to dig the ground. The affirmative words that were about to be added were held back with some hesitation.
"This is where I inherited the secret finger. It will definitely be useful!"
Lan Que's hesitation turned into certainty after he turned around and saw Ying Huai's seeds.
What they needed most now was to plant the Sophora japonica in a place that was best suited for seed germination, and this was the best place he could find.
"That's all we can do."
When Songsong heard Lan Que say this, he knew that the other party also cared about Ying Huai and would not do anything rash, so he finally chose to trust his judgment.
Although the ground was difficult to dig, the two of them were strong enough and dug slowly, but they managed to dig the hole.
When putting the Yinghuai seeds in and preparing to cover them with soil, Song Song for some unknown reason reached out and placed the shriveled Tianyun Fruit next to the Yinghuai seeds.
After covering the soil, Songsong called Lan Que to leave.
"Let's go and see if those monks have left. Let's go and cause some trouble for them!"
"Wow... Yes, let's go find the big monsters. I'll find treasures for them, and they'll help us fight the monks..."
Lan Que's voice faded away with the sound of Songsong leaving.
What neither of them noticed was that after they walked away, the spiritual energy in this place carefully chosen by Lan Que gradually became richer.
Finally, a spiritual tide formed above the locust seeds they planted.
Just as the spiritual tide was irrigating Yinghuai's seeds, the disadvantage of the two people in front attacking beyond their cultivation level in this secret realm appeared.
The space of Tianyuan Secret Realm is unstable, and this instability begins to appear as the spiritual energy in the core of the secret realm is absorbed.
Ying Huai's half seed alone could not absorb so much spiritual energy, but Song Song placed a Tianyun Fruit next to him!
The Tianyun Fruit, which had become shriveled due to the loss of spiritual energy and was considered useless by the cultivators, began to recover its spirituality due to this spiritual tide. Slowly, the aura on its body began to rise, and spiritual energy overflowed.
After being filled with spiritual energy, it directly wrapped the seeds of the nearby Huai tree into its own fruit.
The fruit itself has no core, and it has no shortage of nourishing abilities. After wrapping up the Yinghuai tree, the aura of the fruit, which had just recovered its spiritual energy, began to fall, which shows how much the seeds of the Yinghuai tree were consumed to nourish it.
Even though it absorbs spiritual energy from the external spiritual tide without stopping, it still cannot keep up with the speed of consumption. Fortunately, the two offset each other, and the consumption seems to be slower. If it continues like this, after it completes repairing Ying Huai's seeds, it will still have some spiritual energy left to preserve itself.
Unfortunately, the Tianyun Fruit can allow those who eat it to avoid death and improve their luck, but it cannot resist their own destiny.
The fight between the two people before was its human calamity. Later, Song Song picked it up and sent it to Ying Huai. Cultivating it in this place with abundant spiritual energy was its karma.
If both of them cross over, a seed will grow inside the Tianyun Fruit, binding to a small world, growing and nourishing each other, and eventually growing into a new Tianyun Tree.
The Tianyun Tree is the embodiment of a small part of the Heavenly Dao's abilities. It has no offensive power, but it prevents those who want to harm it from getting close. In addition, the Tianyun Fruit rarely appears, so it is extremely precious and sought after.
Those who have obtained the Tianyun Fruit have all become powerful people in the future, and some have even directly ascended to the upper realm.
Even with such a precious Tianyun Fruit, it is still full of dangers to gain a chance of survival for oneself. The part of destiny carried in the fruit itself has always been given to others and will not be used on itself at all.
Just when Ying Huai's seed was about to be nurtured halfway, with only a quarter of the entire seed left to be nurtured, the space in the Tianyuan Secret Realm became increasingly turbulent because the Tianyun Fruit in the center of the secret realm was absorbing spiritual energy without restraint, and spatial turbulence appeared from time to time.
It seemed that he had endured to the extreme. Suddenly, a spatial turbulence appeared next to the Tianyun Fruit, and directly dropped the Tianyun Fruit and Ying Huai who was wrapped in the Tianyun Fruit into it.
Obviously, the Tianyun Tree in the Tianyun Secret Realm has some feelings for this fruit. After all, it has been bearing fruit on its branches for hundreds of years, but not much.
It was able to endure for so long, and even caused the Tianyuan Secret Realm to be almost pierced into a sieve by the spatial turbulence, and it was only thrown out. This was already a kindness shown by the Tianyun Tree to its fruit.
Tianyun Fruit was thrown into the turbulent space. The last memory of its birthplace in the vague consciousness that had just emerged was the scene of being pulled away by the transparent branch.
Ying Huai's seeds had not yet been fully nurtured, so they had to stop. The spiritual energy in its body had to be used to resist the damage caused to them by the turbulence of space.
In the end, there was not a bit of spiritual energy left to nourish Ying Huai.
Fortunately, its destiny still had some effect, and this effect fell on Ying Huai.
When the spiritual energy of the Tianyun Fruit had been drained away until only a layer of skin remained, they finally reached the exit of this turbulent space...
Daxi Village.
"Grandpa, I've heard this story three times today..."
A child about ten years old looked at the elderly lady sitting in the recliner and reminded her with a pout.
"Ah? Grandpa has told this story before, so let's change it!"
Listening to the child's coquettishness, the old man laughed happily, and quickly recalled that he didn't pay attention just now, and it seemed that he had said it twice more.
"Well, we've heard that story several times today, so we won't tell it anymore. Let's talk about this old Sophora japonica tree behind us!"
The old lady smiled lovingly, her gray eyes fixed on the children lying beside her. Her brows were soft and her eyes were bright. She was a very kind old lady.
"Okay, okay, Grandpa. Xiao Ling'er hasn't heard the story of Mother Huai."
When the little boy Shitou heard what the old man said, he nodded quickly, indicating that he wanted to hear the story.
As soon as Shitou finished speaking, the little girl next to him also nodded continuously. Her big eyes were exceptionally clear and bright, so cute.
"Speaking of the old Sophora japonica tree in our village, it's a story from a long time ago. Long, long ago, when our ancestors fled and passed by this area, they felt that this place was suitable for living, so they settled here. Because there was a river behind it, there was still a small stream even in drought years, so we named it Daxi Village.
As for the Sophora japonica tree behind us, it was fine when the villagers first settled down, but then war broke out everywhere. News came that there was a disaster in the neighboring village, and an entire village was wiped out. At that time, everyone was in a panic..."
When the old lady said this, she seemed to remember the scene at that time. There was a daze between her eyebrows and her memories surged.
