saint of humanity

Chapter 2829 Taichu Wutong

In the Phoenix Nest area, the huge and majestic Taichu Wutong tree stands tall, and the vast sky is filled with silence.

Time passed, and no one knew how long it had been before a figure slowly appeared on a tree trunk. It was an old face with a cane. After appearing, he stared at the young figure sitting in front of him, with a look of surprise in his old eyes.

Because he hadn't been so clear-headed since a long time ago. Although the problem that had been bothering him had not been completely solved, his symptoms of being eroded had improved a lot in this short period of time.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to show up here.

He could feel that the improvement in his condition was directly related to the young man in front of him. There seemed to be an extremely magical power in the other person's body. That power penetrated into his torso, like an invisible fire, helping him to burn out the accumulated corrosive force, breaking a gap in the darkness and letting in a ray of light.

He just stood there, looking at the young face quietly.

Even though he had lived for countless tens of thousands of years, he had never seen such a miracle.

The young man seemed to notice something, his eyelids moved slightly, and then he opened his eyes.

Seeing the old figure standing in front of him, Lu Ye was stunned at first, because he didn't remember there was such a member among the Phoenix clan.

And they look too old. The Phoenix Clan possesses a body of Nirvana, so logically it is impossible for them to become old.

Then he seemed to realize something, and his pupils shrank: "You are..."

The old man smiled at him and said kindly: "Young man, don't be nervous."

Lu Ye thought to himself that he was not nervous, but was just a little excited in his joy, because he had vaguely sensed the other party's identity.

To suddenly appear in front of me in such a place, if he is not from the Phoenix clan, then there is only one possibility!

"Are you Taichu Wutong?"

The old man nodded: "Yes, I am Taichu Wutong."

After receiving the affirmation, Lu Ye was overjoyed and quickly stood up and saluted: "Human Lu Ye, meeting Senior Taichu Wutong!"

His idea was feasible. The power of the talent tree helped Taichu Wutong burn away a lot of corrosive forces, and finally allowed the spirit of this treasure to appear before him.

This is undoubtedly exciting news.

"No need to be so polite!" Taichu Wutong slowly raised his hand, "You have been very kind to me, and I should thank you!"

He knew in his heart that if it weren't for the human cultivator named Lu Ye in front of him who took action, he would have been completely defeated in a few years. At that time, there would only be two paths before him: either struggle and sink in the darkness, or have his spiritual intelligence wiped out by the corrosive force.

But no matter which one, he will completely become a puppet of that will.

Taichu Wutong carefully looked at Lu Ye again and nodded slightly: "You have the aura of Phoenix blood and space seeds. Are you a Phoenix clan official?"

Lu Ye said respectfully: "My dear senior, I am indeed a foreign minister of the Phoenix Clan."

Taichu Wutong smiled kindly: "Since you are a foreign minister of the Phoenix Clan, then we are one family. But your method is really magical. I have never heard of it before, and... I don't know why, it gives me a very familiar feeling."

Lu Ye was slightly startled, then he reacted: "My methods should be from the same source as yours!"

"From the same source?" Taichu Wutong blinked, and suddenly understood: "So that's it!"

During the period when the primordial embryo of the universe was born, the ancestors of the dragon and the phoenix left behind the Taichu Wutong as a cradle for the Phoenix Clan. The inheritance of the talent tree also came from the hands of the ancestors of the dragon and the phoenix, so they naturally came from the same source.

Taichu Wutong felt at home because of this reason.

He turned his head and looked around, sensing silently for a while, and sighed: "I have been in a daze for nearly ten thousand years, but I didn't expect that I would see the light of day again..." After he finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes became bright: "Yes, you are the fire!"

"Spark?" Lu Ye was puzzled.

Taichu Wutong smiled and said, "The fire that the master left in this universe! Now I remember that the catastrophe in my life can only be solved with your fire. The master really has a plan for everything."

The master he was referring to was undoubtedly the dragon and phoenix ancestor.

"Fire...ah, let me think, what did my master leave me back then..." Taichu Wutong fell into deep thought.

Do the Dragon and Phoenix ancestors have anything else to say?

Lu Ye was immediately alert and waited quietly.

After a long while, Taichu Wutong suddenly turned around and looked at him: "Are you the Phoenix Clan's foreign minister? You saved me?"

"Huh?" Lu Ye was stunned. Looking at Taichu Wutong's somewhat turbid eyes, he suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

There seems to be... something wrong with the intelligence of this supreme spirit!

His cloudy eyes slowly regained clarity, and Taichu Wutong looked distressed: "It has been eroded for too long, and I don't think I have fully recovered yet."

Lu Ye quickly asked: "Then can you take me to a place?"

He could certainly continue to activate the power of the talent tree to help Taichu Wutong burn out more corrosive forces and make the situation better, but he had already wasted quite a while here, so he was a little anxious.

As for Taichu Wutong, since he has recovered his consciousness, there will be no problem in the short term. It will not be too late to deal with it after Lu Ye finishes his work.

"Of course, where do you want to go?" Taichu Wutong nodded.

Where to... Lu Ye didn’t know what to say.

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Taichu Wutong understood and said, "If you don't know the exact location, you can describe the situation nearby to me."

Lu Ye said: "I don't know either, but I have a connection with something in that place."

Taichu Wutong nodded: "That's easy."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and a branch fell down, passed under Lu Ye's feet and lifted him up.

"Put aside all distracting thoughts and follow the feeling in your heart!" Taichu Wutong's voice sounded beside his ears.

Lu Ye immediately calmed his mind and concentrated, sensing the mysterious response.

The branch supporting his body pierced into the void, and the void immediately rippled, and then it was broken like the surface of water. The branch pierced into it, and Lu Ye's figure disappeared.

The huge Taichu Wutong tree shook slightly, and the ripples in the void became more violent.

At the same time, in the Phoenix Lord's Phoenix Nest, she stood quietly in front of a grave with a sad look on her face.

There was a monument in front of the tomb, with a few large characters engraved on it: Tomb of Ba Qiu!

She stood there quietly, her eyes lost in thought.

Suddenly, the Phoenix Nest shook. The Phoenix Master immediately showed a look of astonishment, raised his head to the sky, let out a light exclamation, and soared into the sky.

Two breaths later, she flashed to the outside of the Phoenix Nest and locked onto a location with a glance.

The void around him twisted, and when he took a step forward and reappeared, he had arrived at the position where Lu Ye was before.

"Old Tree!" Lord Feng looked at Taichu Wutong in shock, hardly able to believe his eyes.

She has been paying close attention to the situation of Taichu Wutong over the years. She knows this treasure that is the home of the Phoenix Clan better than anyone else, so she never thought that Taichu Wutong would appear in front of her like this.

The last time I saw the old tree like this can be traced back to ten thousand years ago. In the past ten thousand years, as the Taichu Wutong was gradually eroded, it became difficult to communicate with it, let alone meet it like this. Especially in the last thousand years, the Taichu Wutong has almost stopped responding to the outside world.

Every time the power of Taichu Wutong was used, the Phoenix Lord used his own strength to force it.

"Shi Niang..." Taichu Wutong looked at the familiar face in front of him, feeling dazed for a moment, and smiled slightly, "Long time no see."

"Old Tree, why are you..." The Phoenix Lord had a lot to ask, but he didn't know what to ask for a moment. Suddenly he realized, "Who did you send away?"

The branch that had just supported Lu Ye had slowly retracted, but the distorted space was difficult to calm down for the time being.

Lord Feng was not unfamiliar with such scenes and naturally knew what had just happened.

"The foreign official named Lu Ye!" Taichu Wutong replied.

"Where did he go?" Lord Feng asked hurriedly. A while ago, Lord Long had told Lu Ye not to run around unless necessary. It had only been a short while, so why did he run away again?

"I don't know where he went..." Taichu Wutong frowned, "Why is the inner world different now?"

If it were in the past, Taichu Wutong could still mark the specific location of the Phoenix Lord on the star map, but the situation is different now.

"No!" The Phoenix Lord suddenly came back to his senses. Now was not the time to pay attention to Lu Ye. The sudden appearance of Taichu Wutong was a huge event for the Phoenix Clan. "How did you wake up?"

"That outsider helped." Taichu Wutong replied with a smile.

"Lu Ye?" The Phoenix Lord was amazed and puzzled. What ability did Lu Ye have to awaken the Taichu Wutong? You know, the biggest problem of this treasure of the Phoenix Clan is that it is corroded. This is a problem that no one has been able to solve from ancient times to the present. "What did he do?"

“He…” Taichu Wutong’s eyes were deep, “He is the fire seed. He can burn away the corrosive force in my body, so I can wake up.”

Lord Feng was stunned on the spot.

Suddenly she remembered that Lu Ye had been sitting here motionless recently. Although she had paid attention to him before, she still thought that Lu Ye was practicing here.

Now we know that Lu Ye was burning the corrosive force in Taichu Wutong's body.

But this boy did it too secretly, and she didn't notice anything at all. She was shocked and excited, and quickly sent a message.

After a while, Dragon Lord came quickly and stood beside Phoenix Lord. He looked around and asked, "Where is Tree Master?"

He received a message from the Phoenix Lord saying that the old tree had awakened, so he hurried over to investigate, but when he arrived he found that the Phoenix Lord was the only one there.

"He fell asleep again." Lord Feng said.

When Long Zun didn't come over just now, Taichu Wutong spoke a few words to her and then suddenly disappeared. No matter how she called him, there was no response.

"What exactly happened?" asked Long Zun.

The Phoenix Lord said: "I don't know what means Lu Ye used to burn away part of the corrosive power accumulated in the old tree's body, and then the old tree woke up and sent him to a place." (End of this chapter)
