Chapter 37: Land of Sin (Three updates completed!)

  Thank you book friend "Daqin Xianfeng" for your evaluation votes and continuous rewards over the past few days!

  The third update is here! The promise has been fulfilled, and I suddenly feel so relieved!

  ————

  The system's help this time is very limited, except for knowing the name of the Longevity Tree, there is no other information! The other party also said that they themselves will not live long, can they pass on their skills to it?

  To know, I currently have only two books available for promotion.

  It's a coincidence, the first book I promoted was "Qingdi Shengling Jue", and it was even promoted to Xu Rou. Now, unexpectedly, the one promoted to Changsheng Tree is also this one.

  After all, the Qing Emperor's Spiritual Key is the most advanced book in the promotion system, and it matches the properties of the Longevity Tree very well.

  "Perhaps I can help you." Jiang Xiaoyu's expression suddenly became serious.

  The promotion system will not be careless, the Longsheng tree is about to die, and at this time the promotion system gave itself a hint, isn't it its own Qingdi Shengling Jue that can help it recover from injury?

  Wood is the beginning of all life... This sentence left a deep impression on Jiang Xiaoyu, and the more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed!

  As for its own life and death, the Longevity Tree is quite open-minded. It has existed for so long that even it itself can't remember how long it's been around. With memory loss, it's now unable to recall clearly. In short, its lifespan is far longer than that of the gods.

  Having lived for so long, it has become unflappable, even in the face of death. Everything seems too transparent.

  "It's useless, I've tried many methods, but none of them have had much effect. This world is not lacking in talented treasures, unless you have the legendary Nine Fire Phoenix Grass, otherwise, there is nothing in this world that can save me." The Longevity Tree said calmly.

  Although he is not afraid of life and death, there is always some regret in his heart. The outside world has been guarded for countless years, but now the great disaster is about to arrive, and he will have to bid farewell to the world, thinking that it is indeed unbearable.

  Nine Fire Phoenix Grass, a divine object from mythological times, has nine leaves, each resembling the tail of a phoenix, with flames burning on each leaf. The fire that burns without ignition will never be extinguished, hence its name.

  It can bring people back to life, reverse the heavens and change their fate, it's truly a divine medicine! The most precious thing is the flame on its leaves, which can be used for refining equipment, refining elixirs, or by cultivators who practice fire flame divine abilities, greatly increasing one's combat power, its uses are too numerous...

  This divine medicine has only appeared in mythological times and has never appeared since then.

  However, this divine medicine, Jiang Xiaoyu had never heard of it before, and naturally wouldn't think it was that powerful. He took out a book from his bosom and said to the Longevity Tree: "This cultivation method might be helpful to you."

  For some reason, Jiang Xiaoyu always wanted to try and see if he could keep this ancient tree alive. The other party had been through the ages, now standing alone, and for it, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly felt a sense of seeing himself.

  She rubbed her slightly sour nose with her left hand, and then quietly took a deep breath. She had also come to this world alone. Just because she didn't say anything out loud doesn't mean she was living as happily as it seemed on the surface.

  How can I not think of them after they have raised me for so many years?

  Brothers and sisters have a close relationship, how can I forget myself?

  As long as one is still alive, there is always hope! So, no matter what, he must survive, and he also hopes that this ancient tree can survive too!

  Contrary to the Longevity Tree's expectations, it had thought that Jiang Xiaoyu would give it some healing herbs, but unexpectedly, the other party actually gave it a cultivation method. It had lived for too many years, and in such a long period of time, it had seen too many cultivation methods, until finally, it even created its own path and created a cultivation method suitable for itself.

  "Everything in the world has no great effect on me."

  "You have to try it out to know!" Jiang Xiaoyu's gaze was very firm.

  The Long Life Tree fell silent for a moment, and then a branch appeared, directly opening the book from Jiang Xiaoyu's hand. It felt the sincerity of the other party's tone, so it didn't refuse again.

  Turning to the first page, Changsheng Tree looked at it for a long time before turning to the second page. The farther back he went, the faster he turned the pages, and when he reached one of them, Jiang Xiaoyu could see that the branches of the other party suddenly trembled slightly.

  "Is this kung fu helpful to you?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked cautiously.

  Changsheng Tree didn't answer, but after finishing the last few pages, he said: "This method is very mysterious, the way of cultivation is similar to that of the Ten Fingers, but there are also differences."

  Then it seemed to think for a moment before deciding: "Farther than the road I created, with greater potential and more perfect."

  Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up instantly, and a look of wild joy appeared on his face. "You mean it was helpful to you?"

  His joy was heartfelt, and in some ways, although their experiences were different, they were very similar.

  Changsheng Tree said: "Yes. However, I still want to go my own way, this kung fu method I only comprehend, and merge it into my own path."

  It seemed to see Jiang Xiaoyu's thoughts, and continued: "With this kung fu, my injuries can recover, and if everything goes smoothly, I can restore my peak strength in those years, and even go further on the hundred-foot pole."

  In the end, the other party still accepted this "Qing Emperor's Life Skill", and Jiang Xiaoyu didn't disturb them either.

  After several days passed, Jiang Xiao Yu sat beside the ancient tree, while the Longevity Tree somehow obtained some wild fruits from somewhere and fed them to Jiang Xiao Yu. Otherwise, with his initial realm cultivation, he would have been starving by now.

  It's been thirteen days since we entered the ancient ruins, and there are still seventeen days until we leave! The locals had already come out a few days ago, and when they saw Jiang Xiaoyu sitting next to the Longevity Tree, their faces all looked very unsightly.

  However, the other party seemed to have obtained the recognition of the ancient tree, and they had no way out. The green light shield has been maintained all along, and everyone cannot get close, can only keep a certain distance.

  The blood-red sun had disappeared three days ago, restoring its normal color, and the sunshine was bright. During this time, some people couldn't wait any longer and simply gave up on the Spirit Fruit after all, since it was limited in quantity and they might not get it anyway. So they started to leave the mountain, searching for their own opportunities.

  It wasn't until after they left that they discovered the ferocious beasts had vanished into thin air, with no signs of where they went, as if they evaporated into the human world, leaving no trace to be found.

  Jiang Xiaoyu's heart was already bursting with joy at this moment. Some time ago, the system finally gave him a hint that the corpse of the ancient python and the corpse of the Iron Arm Tyrant Dragon added together actually gave thirty points of promotion! Overnight riches, isn't it? Calculating what he had obtained before, he had almost completed half of it now!

  However, he didn't become arrogant because of this. This time was just a matter of his own good luck and slightly bigger guts. The outside world wasn't as easy to deal with as there were no such ferocious beasts existing. In the future, the speed would be much slower unless the system gave him some temporary tasks again.

  Actually, when Jiang Xiaoyu first received this temporary task, he didn't think he could complete any of them. Killing the fierce beast is not worth mentioning, it's definitely impossible, he doesn't have that skill. As for the fierce beast meat, if it weren't for those two stupid beasts fighting each other to the death at the same time, and himself pretending to be awesome, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten it either!

  Everything can only be said to have good luck! Now, the points for exchanging the water-repelling cream are available, and I can also consider cultivating the next divine technique of Shen Di Fist. However, all this is not urgent, anyway, the points are in hand, and they won't run away for the time being. The current combat power is already enough to stand undefeated in the ancient ruins.

  Wait until I go out and then take a good look around to see what's good to exchange for.

  On the fourteenth day, Jiang Xiaoyu received a prompt tone again.

  "Promoted Human Common Spirit Qing, Cultivated 'Qing Emperor Life Spirit Secret' to Great Completion, Obtained Promotion Points 6 points."

  Jiang Xiaoyu was slightly surprised, remembering that the Longevity Tree had said to stick to his own path, and he had only incorporated the Qing Emperor's Life-Extending Technique into his own Dao. He hadn't expected that even doing so would earn him promotion points!

  And Longsheng Tree is directly cultivating to perfection, unlike other promoters who are currently just potential stocks. Once the ancient tree is fully integrated, how much more can one gain?

  The voice of Changsheng Tree soon entered his mind, "I have made some progress, and my life is temporarily preserved. You don't need to worry either."

  That day, Jiang Xiao Yu gave it the method to cultivate its power, and it could feel that the other party truly wanted it to live on, without any reason or ulterior motive, with a simple and pure intention. Unconsciously, it also developed some good feelings towards Jiang Xiao Yu.

  It's like letting oneself be reborn again, and then fight for life once more, all just to leave no regrets behind!

  "That's great!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and continued: "In about half a month, our group of people will be leaving. Are you going out too?"

  Changsheng Tree said: "I still have to stay here for a while, let my Tao be more perfect, and respond to the great disaster."

  "What great calamity? What is this great calamity?" Jiang Xiaoyu was extremely puzzled.

  "I'm not quite sure for the time being, but I should be able to recall it once my strength recovers. However, some memories of this world are starting to come back to me now." The Longevity Tree paused for a moment before continuing: "This is a land of sin, where the five great divine spirits joined forces to seal away people or objects that threatened the earth, and the ferocious beasts are just one part of it."

  "There are many ancient and undying existences here. If I were to go out, it wouldn't be that simple. However, before the Great Calamity, I should be able to take care of them." The Longevity Tree's words were astonishing.

  This sentence reveals the confidence and strength of the Long Life Tree, which can crush all strong enemies. Even so, the ancient era was severely damaged, leaving Jiang Xiaoyu even more puzzled about what happened in the ancient era.

  Suddenly, a branch appeared in front of me, with a bright red fruit hanging from it.

  "Is this... Divine Fruit?" Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up.

  "This is different from ordinary Spirit Fruits, ordinary Spirit Fruits are useless due to the curse's restriction. But this one, infused with my life essence, can increase the holes in your body when consumed." The Longevity Tree's words once again shocked Jiang Xiaoyu.
