At this moment, the gilt tripod was struggling continuously in Bai Yunsheng's palm. The flickering golden light was firmly locked by a layer of black karma, like an iron-headed bee trapped in a glass bottle.
"White Liu Shenmu?"
Mu Chengxue seemed to have heard of this name and whispered thoughtfully. However, she still turned her questioning eyes to Bai Yunsheng.
"I have only read rumors about it," Bai Yunsheng said with a serious face. "There is a record on the last page of the first half of the Book of Changes: There is a sacred tree in Xuanyuan Mountain, named Bai Liu. No leaves grow, and nothing is close to it.
, it is thousands of feet high and cannot be looked up to. It is called a sacred tree, but it is actually a living stone. Heaven and earth say it is the mother of all stones, which is the source of the birth of all ores in the world."
Bai Yunsheng's words struck Mu Chengxue's ears word by word, like a pair of hands pushing open a strange door.
"Stone mother..., is there such a divine thing in the world?"
Her slightly innocent question did not make Bai Yunsheng's face fade away. He lowered his head for a moment, looked up at the Bailiu Sacred Tree coldly, and said seriously:
"The end of Bai Liu, the heart of the origin. Xue'er, we are very close to the last origin."
Mu Chengxue stared at the tree trunk deep into the sky, and said happily: "Are you saying that the origin of gold is on this sacred tree?"
Bai Yunsheng nodded, clenched his fists, and his heart was filled with excitement.
No matter who is behind the crisis in the world, no matter how serious the loss of the original energy is, as long as the five origins are found, the survival of the surrounding world will be in his hands, and the culprit will naturally be forced to show up!
Mu Chengxue sensed the change in Bai Yunsheng's mood and said excitedly: "Without further delay, let's climb to the top of the sacred tree!"
Bai Yunsheng immediately held her hand and rushed forward.
But something tragic happened soon.
Before the two of them flew twenty feet, Bai Yunsheng couldn't withstand the pressure of the increasingly strong Jin Yuanqi, and was pinned down by Shengsheng.
Fortunately, Bai Yunsheng had been carefully protecting Mu Chengxue from being contaminated by the Origin Qi, but this time he also suffered karma backlash and suffered some minor injuries.
"No." Bai Yunsheng held back the karma that was almost boiling in his body and said firmly, "Xue'er, you can't stop the erosion of Origin Qi, so you should go to the tower and rest for a while."
Mu Chengxue pouted her lips again. She knew that it would only be more dangerous if Bai Yunsheng distracted herself from taking care of her, so she reluctantly nodded and was taken into the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons by Bai Yunsheng again.
"call!"
Bai Yun Chang let out a long sigh of relief and used all his karma to get closer to the Bailiu Sacred Tree, flying all the way to the roots of the tree as high as a dangerous wall - just as he entered here to forcefully seize the gilded tripod, he felt that the source energy inside was thinner than the outside world.
many.
Bai Yunsheng stared at the root of the tree for a moment. A sudden thought came to his mind. He stretched out his right hand and placed it on the gray root. A strange coolness suddenly came from his fingertips.
After a while, something magical happened. He didn't feel the slightest pressure from Jin Yuan Qi!
But as soon as Bai Yunsheng took his hand away, the heavy pressure immediately fell down again. When he pressed it again, the feeling of weight disappeared again.
After trying four or five times, a sad and happy result appeared in front of Bai Yunsheng.
Even though the karma in his body can swallow the Origin Qi, it is impossible for him to withstand such a vast amount of Gold Origin Qi based on his current state. What’s more, the pressure of the Origin Qi becomes stronger as he goes up, so there is only one way to reach the sky.
There is a way to go: climb!
Bai Yunsheng raised his head again and looked up vertically. The layers of branches blocked his view. It was definitely not good news to climb such a tall tree with bare hands.
Without hesitating too much, Bai Yunsheng took a deep breath, showed off the tree-climbing style he had used in Jinluan Daze when he was a child, grabbed the roots of the tree with both hands and started climbing.
Seen from a distance, Bai Yunsheng looks like an ant lying on a birch tree.
In order to be on guard against the pressure of Jin Yuanqi, he didn't climb very fast. A quarter of an hour later, he only climbed thirty or forty feet, and he didn't even finish climbing the roots of the tree - this height is insignificant for the Bailiu Divine Tree.
Ignore it.
Suppressing the impatience in his heart, Bai Yunsheng was about to speed up when his hands suddenly slipped and his whole body slid down five or six feet in an instant, breaking into a cold sweat.
He had no doubt that the source energy here could easily knock him back to the ground and smash him into a pulp.
An hour later, another piece of bad news appeared - probably because the original energy was stronger, the trunk of the sacred tree two hundred feet away suddenly became as smooth as a mirror, and his body could no longer be fixed to the tree.
In desperation, Bai Yunsheng had no choice but to transfer a small amount of karma to his palms and the surface of his body, and then resumed his tree-climbing state.
But after climbing thirty feet like this, another accident happened.
Bai Yunsheng suddenly felt his head grow bigger. He clearly felt that the karma he had radiated was slowly swallowing up the golden source energy in the Bailiu sacred tree. And as he continued to climb the tree, the speed and amount of the swallowing were increasing.
rise slowly.
Bai Yunsheng had a vague illusion that the tree seemed to be breathing. He could feel a heart-like beating in the trunk. But at this time, he had no time to care about this situation. Climbing the sacred tree was the most important thing.
When the bad news came, it also brought good news - the swallowed source energy just replenished Bai Yunsheng's consumption of climbing trees.
The Bailiu Divine Tree is as bright as a mountain, with a natural white halo and overwhelming momentum. If you look closely, you can see that there is a black spot crawling upward on the broad milky white trunk. There is a faint layer of black smoke rising from the black spot, like a cloud of smoke.
Flying ashes.
The interval of another hour seemed extremely long.
At this moment, Bai Yunsheng was already 700 feet above the ground, but there was no trace of fatigue or anxiety on his face, only vigilance and vigilance.
The Jin Yuan Qi here has condensed into a mist visible to the naked eye. Bai Yunsheng could clearly feel the consequences of leaving the surface of the sacred tree, and cold sweat was running down his back.
He raised his head hard and looked at the endless tree trunk above, feeling a sense of despair in his heart. The higher he climbed, the scattered branches became denser and whiter, like giant snake heads protruding one after another.
After lying on a branch and resting for a moment, Bai Yunsheng once again moved his aching and numb arms to climb to the top of the tree. However, before he could go up more than a foot, there was a sudden faint vibration under him, and then the entire trunk of the tree visibly shook.
When it shakes, it feels like an earthquake while standing on the ground!
"not good!"
Bai Yunsheng screamed inwardly for no apparent reason. Suddenly, his whole body flashed with black light. His whole body was firmly attached to the Bailiu sacred tree, and it trembled along with the trunk of the tree.
He knew very well that if he was knocked away, nothing would happen.
The shaking continued with no sign of stopping, and more exciting surprises also followed.
Bai Yunsheng immediately noticed a horrifying phenomenon. The giant branches above his head and around him suddenly swayed as if they were alive, like squid tentacles waving towards him.
"That's okay too!"
Without enough time to react, Bai Yunsheng complained angrily, and suddenly pushed his arms upward to avoid the giant branch that was crushing him from the left.
This was no longer whipping like a whip, but rolling like a boulder! What was even worse was that Bai Yunsheng's body could not completely leave the sacred tree, which made the chance of evasion even slimmer.
"Boom boom boom!"
The powerful branches hit the trunk firmly, obviously blocking Bai Yunsheng's progress. The tremors coming from his body were like numbness. Before he could think, three giant branches smashed down from above his head.
Bai Yunsheng gritted his teeth in hatred and moved his karma to all parts of his body. He used his hands and feet to roll up, down, left and right to avoid the powerful impact.
His body was unable to leave the confines of the sacred tree, so he always dodged through the gaps in the giant branches, which was as thrilling as walking on thin ice, as if he was facing an abyss.
"It's okay to climb so high, why do you suddenly attack me here?"
Inexplicable questions still cropped up in the midst of desperation. Bai Yunsheng had already wandered and dodged for three cups of tea. If this continued, there would only be two results - either he would be forced off the sacred tree, or he would be thrown away by the sacred tree.
The original energy is crushed.
But neither giving up nor death was what he wanted.
Even if he could save his life by retreating into the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, he would not be able to move forward half a step further. Bai Yunsheng would not dare to control this treasure in such a place, even if it has reached the peak level of general weapons.
"boom!"
The huge branches kept rolling and rolling, causing Bai Yunsheng's ears to hurt. Because he kept devouring the source of energy, his karma was not consumed much, but he was still at the end of a powerful crossbow.
At this critical moment, an ethereal cry suddenly fell from the sky, startling Bai Yunsheng to look up despite his busy schedule.
I saw an extremely beautiful bird hovering down from the sky above the sacred tree. Its lively cry was like a piece of requiem music, which immediately calmed down the rioting giant branches of the sacred tree.
After a while, the divine bird stopped at the end of a giant branch, with red feathers and golden eyes, a white belly and black claws, and a body of red-gold bright feathers that were noble and dusty. Its long tail feathers were like a suspended golden river, with gold powder lingering in the trembling.
The divine bird's eyes were like lightning, and it stared indifferently at Bai Yunsheng, who was lying on the branch below.
Bai Yunsheng was also staring at it.
Different from the indifference in the eyes of the divine bird, Bai Yunsheng's heart was already filled with turmoil at this moment, because what appeared in front of him at this moment was really beyond his imagination.
After a long time, Bai Yunsheng, who was stammering and hesitant to speak, uttered three words with extreme suspicion:
"Bird of Paradise!?"
One word sets the tone.
After being deeply surprised, Bai Yunsheng was convinced by his eyes.
The arrogant and noble divine bird in front of me is the ancient monster that once ranked second in the list of monsters in the Sun Moon Pavilion. It is almost only spread in the legends of the world, but occasionally there are rumors that someone is in Xuanyuan Mountain.
I have seen this beast.
The bird of paradise is said to be a spiritual beast raised by the golden beast Qilin. It was born on the top of Xuanyuan Mountain and is rarely seen by people. It is said that its cry can calm all the chaos and wars in the world.
This also comes from a rumor in Jianghu: In the ancient times, the world was harsh and cruel. Not only the demon and human races were fighting endlessly, but also the respective forces of the two tribes were conquering each other year after year. The world was in constant war. At that time, the human race was weaker than the demon race. Once
The demon clan launched a surprise attack and besieged a clan from the Central Plains in Xuanyuan Mountain. They were at the end of their rope. When the clan members were desperate, a divine bird suddenly descended from the sky, which not only calmed down the battle and saved them, but also led them to win the world.
Bai Yunsheng slowly put away his shock, instead showed a smile and whispered to the Bird of Paradise: "I didn't expect you to live here."
He vaguely felt that although this magical bird was hostile to him, it did not have murderous intentions.
"young people."
A sound suddenly sounded in Bai Yunsheng's ears. It was neither yin nor yang, and it was difficult to tell whether it was male or female, but it was definitely coming from the mouth of the bird of paradise.
The divine bird's golden demonic eyes stared at him coldly and ordered:
"No matter where you are from or what you are doing, leave now."
Bai Yunsheng didn't seem to care about the threat of the Bird of Paradise, and actually said half-jokingly:
"Can you talk?"
"I will only say it once."
Bird of Paradise also ignored Bai Yunsheng's attitude. His demonic eyes turned cold, and there was actually a bit of Jin Yuan's aura in the demonic aura that burst out.
"Ha." Bai Yunsheng smiled freely, wagging his fingers with difficulty and said, "Unfortunately, this is the only way I want to go, and I can't go back."
