After a pause, the tree spirit continued: "This guy is still alive and well."
"You're actually still alive and well?"
Wei Zong was a little surprised. You must know that under the rules of this world, even the most powerful Martial God can only live for two to three hundred years, which is not a long life. And since the founding of Daxuan, at least
Having lived for more than two thousand years, it is simply miraculous that Zhan Wuji can live for such a long time.
"How did he do it?" Wei Zong looked curious.
The tree spirit snorted coldly: "It's not because of the technique I gave him originally. The Wan Nian Tong Lu is not just about collecting beliefs, it also records some of your outside methods. For example... seizing the body.
Other people’s bodies!”
Speaking of this, the tree spirit looked at Wei Zong.
Wei Zong was suddenly shocked. After all, his body was taken from him in the first place.
However, Wei Zong did not show any abnormality. He just touched his chin and said: "Seize the body? As far as I know, the conditions required for seizing the body are very harsh, and it is limited by the laws of this world on the soul.
Suppression, it's not that easy to successfully seize the body."
"certainly!"
The tree spirit nodded: "Zhan Wuji's body-seizing is only effective for his own bloodline relatives. In other words, he can only seize his own children."
"Take away your own children?" Wei Zong's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.
"In other words, all the Daxuan emperors after him... have actually been taken away by him? From the beginning to the end, the emperors of the entire Daxuan dynasty have all been Zhan Wuji?"
Speaking of this, Wei Zong suddenly thought: "Doesn't that mean that the reason why the current Daxuan Emperor is invincible and the most powerful person in the world is simply because he is an old monster who has lived for more than two thousand years.
Wuji?"
Then, without knowing what he thought of, Wei Zong suddenly looked at the tree spirit: "By the way, senior, do you know how many children the current emperor has?" He has been in the imperial capital for so long, except for Princess Daxuan,
I have never seen other princes, so I asked this question.
The tree spirit shook his head and said slowly: "There is only one! Maybe the technique he practices is too evil, or maybe his behavior of taking away his own offspring is unreasonable, and God has punished him, so that he
There is only one child in a generation."
There is only one child in each generation...that is to say, if this child dies, he will have no other choice to take over, and he can only watch his body slowly age and die.
Therefore, Wei Zong now understood that the Emperor valued Princess Daxuan so much.
The light shield on the princess before could easily withstand attacks at the level of a god of war. If Wei Zong hadn't used the underworld to penetrate the underworld, he would not have been able to defeat her. This kind of magic weapon is regarded as the supreme magic weapon in this world.
If it exists, even if Emperor Daxuan wants to refine it, it will probably take a lot of effort.
Thinking of Princess Daxuan who was still trapped in Hell, Wei Zong suddenly thought of an interesting question.
"What if his next generation is a daughter? Do we have to take away her body too?"
"This is natural!" The tree spirit said calmly: "The daughter will still seize the body, become the queen and ascend the throne, and then establish a male queen to continue giving birth to the next generation."
"Tsk tsk..." Wei Zong tsk-tsk in admiration. This magical operation really shocked him.
"You can be a man or a woman, but this Zhan Wuji is also a ruthless person!"
Such a ruthless person, I just don’t know what is going on now. A person like him, even if faced with attacks from strong outsiders, I am afraid he will not give in easily.
"Ruthless person?" The tree spirit sneered: "His spirit has already reached the edge of collapse under the impact of so many years of belief in all living beings. His spirit has been tortured to this point. The mere physical difference between men and women has no impact on him.
What does it matter?"
"That's true!" Wei Zong said, "But if I am allowed to live forever in this way, I would rather die and be done with it. This kind of life is more painful than death!"
"Who says it isn't?"
The tree spirit also sighed: "So... Zhan Wuji gradually couldn't bear it anymore. His increasingly broken spirit made him unable to continue, so these years, he has basically been dormant, and everything in the empire
His daughter takes care of everything. And...because he has been unable to break through to the God of War, he began to plan some evil ways..."
"Evil path?" Wei Zong frowned.
"I don't know what it is specifically!" The tree spirit said slowly: "When he came to me before, he looked very tired and unwilling. He said that he couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to take another way.
That path is likely to be a road of no return to the depths of hell..."
What the tree spirit said was eloquent, but what Wei Zong noticed was another point in the tree spirit's words.
"Wait a minute, you said he came to you before...that is to say, you still keep in touch over the years and he still comes to you often?" Wei Zong was a little surprised.
"Of course, is that weird?"
The tree spirit glanced at Wei Zong strangely, and then said: "He has lived for so many years, and he has many secrets. He cannot tell others. The only one who can tell them is me. And I have been trapped here, wishing that someone
You can come and talk with me.
So... we formed an unwritten tacit understanding. He would come to see me almost once a month to talk to me about the difficulties in cultivation and introduce to me what new things are happening in the world.
Things..." At this point, the tree spirit paused and turned to look at Wei Zongdao: "Otherwise, how do you think I know what is happening in the world if I have been trapped here all this time."
Wei Zong's pupils shrank: "When was the last time he came?"
The tree spirit answered quickly: "About half a month ago. According to his usual routine, it will still take half a month before he arrives here."
"That's not bad!"
Wei Zong breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could even take a deep breath, the tree spirit's next words made him think again.
"However... the current situation is special and there is an invasion from the outside world. He is very likely to come to me and discuss with me how to deal with powerful outsiders!"
"Damn, why didn't you tell me earlier!" Wei Zong's heart suddenly flashed, and then he became angry.
"You didn't even ask me!" The tree spirit looked helpless.
"No, we can't just stay here. It would be bad if we were bumped into by Zhan Wuji." Just as Wei Zong was thinking of a solution, he heard the tree spirit say lightly: "What a coincidence, he's here.
!”
Along with his words, Wei Zong also felt a terrifying aura so powerful that it made all living beings tremble, and it forcefully broke into his perception.
