Chapter 237 Two Tree Kings send warmth
to the battlefield of Cuihai Valley. Hook locks are released from the airship, and a black jade scorpion corpse with 5 and 6 rings is captured into the airship.
Several corpses of the 7-ring Black Jade Scorpion King were divided among several great arcane mages.
Duke also got one.
"Your Excellency Duke, my boss said that after you return, you will send someone to pull back the body of the Black Jade Scorpion King." A member of Kisson's clan, a 2nd-level arcane mage, came and said.
Duke nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Christian for me."
The airship brigade spent half a day completely wiping out the Black Jade Scorpion clan in the Cuihai Valley. The mercenary groups outside the area who received the news also came to clean up other spiritual insects.
at dusk.
The arcane mages, headed by Christian Raging Waves, gathered around the small lake of the Spiritual Spring and began to discuss how to mine the Spiritual Spring.
"This spiritual spring was damaged by the earthquake. If you want to restore it to a large spiritual spring, you must dredge the channel of the spiritual spring. After dredging, the urban construction layout of Cuihai City can be carried out according to the scale of the spiritual spring's escape. ."
Erwin said.
"There's no rush in this matter. The effect of the spirit-fixing powder will soon wear off. Let's get the ancient spirit out of the spring first." Christian waved his hand and made a decision.
"What should we do with those two tree kings?" Orucci, chief director of Faling Tower, asked.
"If you can keep it, keep it. If you can't keep it, cut it down and make it into spiritual materials. In the future, Cuihai City will plan to build five towers, which will require a lot of materials." "Cut it down?"
Duke
raised his eyebrows.
The value of the 3-ring tree king is huge, and cutting it down is undoubtedly the most wasteful way to use it.
However, the 3-ring tree king is too big, especially if it grows next to the spiritual spring, it is indeed easy to hinder the mining of the spiritual spring.
In addition, the 3-ring tree king can make people understand the magical mysteries.
It's just that most people have no chance to understand it - looking at the entire Black Dragon River area, including Duke, there are definitely no more than five people who have understood the secret of the 3-ring tree king - the mysterious vine.
And after understanding it, it doesn't seem to be of much use.
At least for Duke, the only time the Guardian Mysterious Vine has played a role so far was when the Ocean of Insects broke out, protecting the stability of the spiritual sea for him. But in fact, even without the Guardian Mysterious Vine, the Ocean of Insects might not really be able to harm him.
Those phantoms from ancient times would at most have a certain impact on his body and make him seriously ill. He would be able to recover after practicing for a while.
so.
In most cases, arcane mages deal with third-level tree kings by keeping them if they can, and cutting them down if they can't and making them into spiritual materials.
Duke left the lake and walked towards the first tree king.
Beside the spiritual spring of Cuihai Valley, there are two king trees, one on the east bank and one on the west bank.
The king tree on the east bank is as tall as the sky. It is a pine tree that has grown for tens of thousands of years and is named the Wannian Pine Tower. The king tree on the west bank is only fifty meters high, less than a quarter of the height of the Wannian Pine Tower. , but the tree crown blocks the sky and the sun, and there are countless aerial roots underneath, so it is named the Green Shade Banyan Forest.
At this moment, Duke was standing at the root of the 3-ring tree king - Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower. He looked up and could almost see the top through the sparse branches.
The branch closest to the ground is nearly twenty meters high.
A large part of its roots are exposed on the surface, and they are intertwined and have huge plate-like root protrusions.
Duke grabbed the tree trunk, his fighting energy condensed in his hands, and it firmly attached to the tree trunk like a suction cup. Then he climbed to the first branch easily like an ape. This branch is at least five meters thick, but the front end has been broken off, leaving only half of it.
Standing on it is like standing on level ground.
While other arcane mages were discussing how to develop this spiritual spring by the lake, Duke simply sat cross-legged on a branch.
"Chicken, come out to work!"
Duke patted his belly, and then a big green-skinned tadpole yawned and appeared, kicking its short legs and wandering in the air: "What are you doing? This is not It's not time to practice yet!"
"Look over there."
"Which way?" The chicken followed the direction Duke pointed and saw a small triangular lake and a large number of arcane mages.
"Did you remember anything?"
"No." Xiaoji shook his head, "What are those arcane mages doing around the lake? Are you ready to take a bath?" "
You don't know about this spiritual spring?" Duke was surprised, "Xiaoji Chicken, this is the spiritual spring where your grandma lives. Don’t you remember?”
“Ah!” Chicken exclaimed, “My grandma!”
“I finally remembered it.”
“No!” Chicken was excited. It said, "It's my grandma who comes to play with me. I don't know what the place where my grandma lives is like!"
It rubbed Duke's neck hard with its head: "Duke, Duke, hurry up and rescue my grandma. , I'm going to miss my grandma!"
"Don't worry, don't worry." Duke touched the chick's head and comforted him, "Mr. Kisson will help me rescue your grandma, and then he will quietly save you. Grandma sent it here, so now we just need to wait quietly."
"Really, that's great!"
"I never did what I promised you."
"Duke, you are awesome!" Xiao The chicken sipped on Duke's face, and there was no spitting, only the cool and moist feeling of jade.
Duke smiled and said, "You know how good I am, so why don't you join us quickly? I want you to help me practice and try to understand the secrets of the two tree kings as soon as possible!" "Yeah!" The chicken bit
Duke's finger.
Then it turned into a pool of green liquid and merged into Duke's body. The next moment, Duke's body changed and entered the elf form.
Lifting up the hood of the arcane robe, Duke fell into meditation quietly, quietly performed the breathing method, and established a breathing resonance with the third-ring tree king - the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
In an instant.
His breathing became longer, and the quarrels among the arcane mages not far away were forgotten. The sea of qi in the lower abdomen began to billow with clouds and mist, and the whole person followed the breathing rhythm of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, entering a mysterious and mysterious realm.
His thoughts seemed to be transformed into birds.
A bird flew to the edge of a round lake, took a sip of water, and then sprinkled the water on its feathers.
The lake water seems to have a cleaning function, making its originally dull feathers instantly brighter.
The bird flew up with satisfaction, pooping on it as it rose, and one of its seeds fell into the soil by the lake.
In the ignorant years, the seeds sprouted and grew, growing into towering trees like those around them.
Suddenly.
In the gap between the changes of the years, a huge monster crawled from a distance. This monster could not see the whole picture. It was only known that it looked like a maggot and wanted to enter the round lake. The lake seemed to react, creating ripples in circles.
Then countless spiritual beasts came from all directions, attacking the maggot monster like moths rushing to the flame. It was unknown how many spiritual beasts died.
This maggot monster was finally defeated, and after peeling off a layer of tattered shell, it fled the place.
Contaminated by maggot shells, the surrounding trees died one by one. Only this pine tree retained its last breath and survived. Together with other big trees that were reborn one after another, they breathed jade dew, bathed in sunshine, and grew vigorously.
Changes in the sea.
The shed shells of the maggots have long been buried in the dust, and the circular lake was transformed into a triangular lake during a major earthquake.
And this pine tree finally grew into a three-ring tree king - a ten thousand year old pine tower one day.
At this moment, Duke felt the long tree growth trajectory of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower through the collision of spirituality.
It cannot think and has no intelligence.
But I am fully enjoying all the nutrients every day, just to make myself grow bigger and bigger, and then survive all kinds of disasters and still be green and green.
"Huh!"
Duke broke away from the positive atmosphere of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower. His whole person was infected by this atmosphere, and his heart was full of positivity.
Trees may not have the ability to think, but they still have emotions.
"Thank you, Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, for your gift. If possible, I will dissuade others from cutting you down." Duke stood up from the branches, faced the towering tree, and bowed lightly. Gratitude from the bottom of my heart.
Just like he had previously comprehended the three-ring tree king - the mysterious vine, he now also comprehended the three-ring tree king - the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
And received the gift of Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
In the air sea, above the clouds, another seed sprouted and grew into a small pine tree. This is a spiritual seed, a gift that can only be given by the tree king - or it can be understood as a projection, Duke Imprint the projection of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower into the air sea.
The sea of qi changed rapidly, and the spiritual seed of the mysterious vine that could only lie on the clouds now saw the ten thousand year pine tower and quickly climbed up.
Grow together with the spiritual seeds of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
And the next moment.
Duke suddenly felt something in his heart, and sat down cross-legged again, quietly looking into the spiritual sea.
There are a total of eleven kinds of visions in the spiritual sea, which are born and destroyed all the time, and there are guarding and mysterious vines entangled with these visions.
At this time, in the center of the 2-ring spirit core, where the twisted ring should have been, a pine tree grew quietly until it grew into a towering tree.
There is no vision of the guarding and mysterious vines everywhere, only a solitary towering pine tree standing in the center of the spiritual core.
After a while.
A vague message came back from the vision of the pine tree: "Endless! The Endless Pine Tower of Ten Thousand Years!" "
This is... the Endless Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, the same... mystery as the Guardian Vine of Mystery! "Duke captured the message of this new vision from the spirituality emanating from the pine tree vision. "Being unyielding and never forgetting your original intention is a lock on the twisted ring!" Hidden in the twisted ring is
his As long as you don't lose your original heart, you won't get lost in the path of spiritual arcana and become a fallen demon.
But now, with the addition of the Endless Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, his true heart will be better protected.
"That's great!"
Duke, in his elf form, bowed to the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower again, expressing his gratitude to this life that has lived for countless years.
Then with high spirits, he jumped down from the branch.
"Duke, what are you doing?" Kilia Furtao also left the crowd and came to the foot of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
"Let me learn about these two tree kings, Kiriya. You might as well give it a try. You may have unexpected gains." Duke said.
"Then have you realized it?"
"Yeah."
"Ah." Kiriya was stunned, "Have you really realized it?"
"Yes, this ten thousand-year-old pine tower... forget it, I can't say that. It will affect the rhythm of your understanding. You'd better immerse yourself in it and understand the spirituality of the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, so that you can get its gifts." Duke said seriously.
However, I feel that it is difficult for Kiriya to understand.
He is a fellow practitioner of the Three Seas. He has the Qi Sea and can perform breathing techniques. With the help of the connection with the power of nature, he can enter the same rhythm as the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
Coupled with the blessing of the elf form, this can easily receive gifts.
Kiriya only opened the spiritual sea, and the process of comprehending the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower could only rely on the collision of spirituality itself.
"I..." Kiriya was a little unsure, especially in front of Duke, "Let's give it a try first."
She had been exposed to the mysterious vines that she grew up in since she was a child, but she hadn't been able to understand any of the secrets, let alone just encountered it now. Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower.
"Give it a try, and you won't lose anything whether you succeed or not." Duke encouraged Kylia to realize it now.
He also ordered the two accompanying 2nd-level fantasy beast knights to protect Kylia, and then he walked towards the other side of the small lake.
The common plants nearby were all cut down by the mercenary group one after another.
But the king of trees in the third ring, the green banyan tree, is itself a forest of single trees, like a green forest covering the west bank of the spiritual spring.
Easily finding the main trunk of the shady banyan forest, Duke quietly climbed up a branch and sat down cross-legged.
In the same way as comprehending the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, perform the breathing method with your eyes closed.
In a daze.
The familiar feeling lingered in his heart again, and he fell into the perspective of the tree king again. It was as if the spirituality condensed in the tree king brought Duke into the vortex of time. A blink of an eye, thousands of years, directly starting from the days of ignorance.
At first everything was dark, and the tree king was still in the form of a seed. It was wrapped in a thick layer of soil and couldn't even sprout.
until one day.
A big earthquake cracked the surface of the earth, and it finally got a little space, sprouted, grew, and soon grew into a forest.
Countless spiritual beasts live around it, birds build nests on it, squirrels drill holes in it, fish play around its aerial roots when the water rises, and small animals eat its leaves to satisfy their hunger when it dries up... A tree is an ecosystem.
It keeps company with birds, beasts, insects and fish, and feeds on sunlight, rain and dew.
The life of the Green Banyan Tree has passed like this. It is much younger than the Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower. It has never experienced the invasion of ancient evil things. Instead, it sprouted in the great earthquake. The spring of spirituality around it has also been maintained. triangle.
The special feeling goes as quickly as it comes.
Duke opened his eyes and smiled again: "Good luck, in my elf form, I understand the secret of the Tree King, as harmonious as water and milk blending together."
In the sea of qi.
On a single cloud, the spiritual seeds of the green banyan forest have sprouted and grown into a small banyan tree.
"Three spiritual seeds have been planted, which is another step forward before I can build an elf paradise." Duke sighed slightly in his heart, "It's a pity that elves are hard to find, and wild elves are even rarer. Except for the chickens that I sent to my door, I I’ve only seen the house elf Kikyo.”
Shake his head.
The next moment, with a thought in his heart, he closed his eyes and looked into the spiritual sea.
The new mystery has formed a vision in the spiritual sea. It is a banyan tree growing from the ring-shaped spiritual core. The branches continue to extend, and then hang down countless aerial roots, bringing together small wild flowers, ants, sea scorpions and other visions. , all shrouded in the shade of trees.
"Affinity·Green Banyan Forest." Duke had already received the information fed back by the spirituality emitted by the banyan tree.
The Guardian Vine of Mystery can protect Duke's spiritual sea from being impacted by the phantoms of ancient times.
The Endless Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower can protect Duke's true heart and will not get lost easily.
The Affinity·Green Banyan Forest allows his spiritual sea and spiritual core to be more intimate with spiritual plants and spiritual beasts, making it easier for him to improve his understanding of spiritual arcana in these two aspects.
"Hmm!" Duke thought silently, "In other words, Affinity and Green Banyan Tree gave me a little more talent in the field of animal taming and spiritual planting. If I tamed animals or cultivated spiritual plants, I would be better than an ordinary arcane mage. It’s easier and easier to progress.”
There’s no doubt about it.
This is a very powerful "mystery".
"The effects of the three mysteries, the Guardian Vine of Mystery and the Endless Ten Thousand Years Pine Tower, are not obvious. Only Affinity and Green Shade Banyan Forest directly help my practice. Very good, very good!" After Duke thought about it, he clapped his hands.
Quickly release the elf form.
It has not reached the limit, so after the chicken condensed its body, it was still full of energy: "Duke, has my grandma been rescued?" "
Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, have you seen that place? Lord Christian is trying to rescue her. You Don't worry, your grandma will be reunited with you soon."
"Then I'll wait!" It was about grandma, and Xiaoji didn't dare to have a bad mouth with Duke.
So it acted very well for the time being, Duke patted its belly gently, and it quickly crashed into it, returning to the sea of air to recharge its batteries.
It was getting dark.
The arcane mages by the lake have chosen to camp, and obviously they will have a long talk tonight by the spiritual spring to make a century-old plan to build Cuihai City.
Duke didn't join in the fun.
Instead, he was entrenched on the branches of the green banyan forest, the king of trees in the third ring, and continued to recall the scene he felt when he understood the mystery.
Through the tree king's spirituality, it was like going back in time, letting him know the scenes that happened countless years ago.
"The ancient evil thing in Mutated Forest No. 3 shed its shell, and it turned out to be the shed shell of the huge maggot monster. This ancient evil thing wanted to swallow the spring of spirituality, but was expelled by the spiritual beast, and the shell left behind lasted for thousands of years. It can still cause bad effects in the future."
However, the scene of enlightenment was blurry, and Duke could only clearly see the general outline of this ancient evil thing.
"I don't know if this ancient evil thing still survives to this day. If so, I'm afraid it's difficult to deal with."
That maggot monster was expelled by countless spiritual beasts in flesh and blood. The number of deaths is probably incalculable.
Even so, it only shed a layer of shell and left calmly, which shows how powerful the ancient evil thing is.
"It gives me the feeling that Loren Sankagome may not be able to deal with it."
Facing the 9-ring dragon - Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon, Loren Sankagome is like a god, killing wantonly, just like an ordinary person killing a Chicken is so simple.
However, in the blurry picture of time ten thousand years ago, there are many sub-dragons among the spiritual beasts besieging the ancient evil thing. But they still need to rely on mountains of corpses and seas of blood to fill the gap between them. It can be seen that the methods of the ancient evil things are much stronger than the Morning Star Arcane Master.
"Forget it, why are you thinking too much? If the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up. More than 4,400 years have passed since the storm calendar. Human beings have conquered countless lands in the wild forest and established eighteen kingdoms...ancient evil things I'm afraid it will rot in time."
Now is the era of mankind.
...
"Duke, where have you been? I didn't see you in the meeting just now." Kisson was eating barbecue by the campfire and asked Duke, who had just arrived with Kilia.
After sizing up the two of them, Christian said seriously: "I don't object to you dating Kylia, but don't make mistakes under my eyes. The daughter of the Nutao family will never be allowed to have sex before getting married. Meng Lang acted!"
Kiliya was embarrassed and lowered her head and replied: "Grandpa, what are you talking about! Duke and I have been comprehending the three-ring tree king." "
Really." Christian was dubious.
"Yes, Sir Christian, that's all." Duke responded calmly. As for holding hands and kissing on the lips, it obviously cannot be considered a mistake.
"You two, have you realized anything?" Christian asked instead.
Kiriya suddenly showed a sweet smile: "I didn't understand anything, but Duke did. Grandpa Grandpa, Duke and the two tree kings also realized it." "Oh, really?"
Christian was stunned. , was very surprised, "Has your understanding been exaggerated to this extent?"
Duke smiled and replied: "It's not that my understanding is too exaggerated, but that I am a second-level elf user, and the same as the tree king." After establishing breath resonance, it is easy to obtain gifts from the Tree King and understand the secret of the Tree King."
In his opinion, the so-called secret of the Tree King is not a mystery.
Rather, it is a spiritual projection.
Over thousands of years, the tree king's condensed spirituality has become extremely rich, producing many incredible effects.
And with the help of breath resonance, he can easily project this effect into the air sea and the spiritual sea.
The true spiritual sea of nature is projected in the human body, creating a spiritual sea; the rich spirituality of the three-ring tree king can also be projected in the human body. This projection is the cause of the spiritual seed and the so-called secret of the Tree King.
"Comrade Sanhai, you really took advantage!" Christian said with enthusiasm, "When you break through the spiritual fog and are promoted to the Great Arcana Mage, you may be able to start refining the sea of qi and sea of blood into arcane weapons, which means you have more than others in vain. Come out with two extraordinary arcane weapons!"
"Everything is guided by spirituality."
"Tsk, tsk."
Looking at Duke, who looked calm and relaxed, Christian's heart felt a little sour, and the spirituality of Heijiaohe was totally different. , I am afraid that all eight fights will fall on Duke.
...
After the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon was easily dealt with by Loren Sankagome, there was no longer a place for spiritual beasts to stand in Cuihai Valley, and the urban construction of Cuihai City was officially started.
Countless airships flew towards Cuihai Valley, transporting materials, puppets and personnel.
The nearby Sheshou Town once again saw an explosion of people, and businessmen from the entire Wind Breathing Realm who got the news were all rushing here.
There are too many stakes involved in building a city from scratch.
The Giant of Light Spiritual Weapon Company under Duke also participated in the construction of Cuihai City, and the lighting fixtures for all official buildings were contracted by the Giant of Light. In addition, the Giant of Light continues to compete with Runwanjia Spirit Weapon Factory in other spiritual weapon products.
Now Duke's status has skyrocketed, and he is already on an equal footing with the Great Ao Mage, and even the Giant of Light has also risen.
Completely crushing the Runwan family.
However, Duke, as the chairman, didn't worry about these specific matters at all. He always followed Christian Furious.
A team formed by Master Da'ao, led by Christian, personally drove a group of diving puppets into the spiritual spring to dredge the spring channel, and through the spring channel, they explored the surrounding area to roughly determine how many small springs there were in the surrounding area.
Often a large spiritual spring is surrounded by a large number of small spiritual springs.
Wait until April.
Duke finally received the good news. The diving puppet operation team had completed the first round of exploration of this large spiritual spring.
Found fourteen small springs in the surrounding area.
These fourteen small springs are all places where a mage tower can be built in the future, and each spring is priceless.
"There are more than expected. Originally, I thought I would be satisfied with ten small springs, but I didn't expect four more." Christian was very happy, "And the spiritual throughput of the large springs is greater than the springs in Shenjiao City. It's much higher, and it's a good spring for building a city!"
He first looked at Duke: "Are you going to continue to use your teacher's mage tower, or are you planning to build a new mage tower in Cuihai City?" "I plan to build a
new mage tower. Tower," Duke responded.
The Suktala Mage Tower has been transferred to his name, but he still decided to build a new Mage Tower in Cuihai Valley.
The reason is simple. The mage tower built by the 3rd level arcane mage is no longer worthy of his status as a learned sage.
It is precisely because of this that he discussed with his teacher Suktala to reform the Suktala Master Tower, fully open it to the outside world, and embrace the new industry-university-research system. In the future, even if Suktara and Duke are gone, this mage tower can still thrive.
"Then there is a spring. You must fight for it. You can't let that old guy Bernoulli take it." Keystone spread out the hand-drawn map.
In the southwest corner of Cuihai Valley, there are two small springs close together.
Christian smiled brightly: "We will help you grab one of the springs, so that the other spring can be temporarily reserved for you because it is too close and no one will fight for it. Sooner or later, you will need it. The second spring."
This is exactly the same as the development of the Keystone Mage Tower.
At that time, the Nutao family took a fancy to two small springs next to each other, so they decided to take them, and then they developed into the size of the mountain city they are today.
Listen to people's advice and eat enough.
Duke nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I will choose this spring!"
After a pause, he looked at Christiane expectantly: "Sir, did you not forget to rescue Xiaochi's grandma during your expedition?"
"Hey, how could I forget the ancient spirit!" Christian took out a fist-sized crystal ball from his pocket.
Throw it to Duke.
Duke took the crystal ball with both hands and saw at a glance that there was an ancient spirit that looked like a trilobite wandering in the crystal ball.
The entire body was outlined by glimmering light, and it was the same life form as the big iron-headed fish and the big dragonfly Das he had seen.
