"Hey, that tree doesn't seem to be an ordinary dead tree, it's orichalcum?"
Before approaching the island, Ah Huang suddenly spoke.
Seeing Ah Huang hovering in mid-air, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but patted its head:
"Go down and have a look."
"Oh~"
After leading a group of four people to the small island in the middle of the lake, Ah Huang immediately transformed into a little tiger and lay on top of Jiang Wu.
Perhaps we have been together for a long time and have become somewhat familiar with each other.
Jiang Wu did not stiffen up this time. Instead, he bravely stretched his hand to the top of his head, wanting to touch the little tiger.
But in the end, he was slapped by the little tiger and failed.
Ignoring Jiang Wu who made small movements, Jiang Xuan had already focused all his attention on the dead tree the moment he landed.
No, as the little tiger said, the tree in front of us should not be called a dead tree, but should be called an ancient orichalcum tree.
The ancient orichalcum tree is purple in color and is 49 meters tall. It has a total of 365 branches with no leaves on it.
The bark-like textures were all composed of ancient characters, and Jiang Xuan didn't recognize any of these crooked ancient characters, and couldn't even determine which era they belonged to.
Looking carefully at the words on the ancient tree, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt a trance.
When he came back to his senses, the ancient tree in front of him turned into a pale moon.
He closed his eyes and concentrated his mind. When he opened his eyes again, the full moon turned into an ancient orichalcum tree again.
Recalling the previous scene, Jiang Xuan made sure that he was not dazzled and then looked at the ancient tree intently.
In a daze, the full moon appeared in front of Jiang Xuan again.
This time, Jiang Xuan focused all his attention on the full moon.
Then the word "Youying" naturally appeared in his mind.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt a sense of dizziness, which made him couldn't help but sway.
"Almost empty of mental energy?"
"Fortunately, the soul is not damaged at all."
"Well, the true energy in the body has just spontaneously transformed into Tai Chi Yin energy. It seems that the operation of "Star Gazing Technique" has become somewhat proficient."
"In other words, you just realized something out of nowhere?"
"So this ancient tree has similar functions to the jade slips. The ancient inscriptions on the ancient tree are exercises?"
"Who left it?"
Jiang Xuan once again turned his attention to the ancient orichalcum tree. Perhaps due to excessive mental exhaustion, Jiang Xuan did not see the full moon again this time.
Taking two deep breaths to calm down, Jiang Xuan immediately decided to improve the "Star Gazing Technique" after returning.
"Tai Chi Heart Sutra" can operate on its own after you practice it to perfection, and I think "Star Gazing Technique" should also be able to do it.
By then, the rate of improvement of mental power will definitely be accelerated. If you have more mental power, you won't be accidentally depleted like now.
Secretly suppressing his thoughts, Jiang Xuan immediately looked at Jiang Wu and the others, as well as the little tiger lying on Jiang Wu's head.
The result was that the little tiger was still drooling as he stared at the ghost lantern fish, Jiang Wu looked around with a look of surprise, and Bai Xianglian and Niu Hua'er whispered softly, as if they had not noticed the magic of the ancient orichalcum tree at all.
"This thing is destined to me."
Looking at the ancient orichalcum tree again, Jiang Xuan suddenly said this in his heart.
Jiang Xuan laughed secretly, and then thought about the word "Youying" again.
Why is Youying?
Youying means Zhiyin, which also means the moon. It is also called Taiyin Youying.
In addition, Youying is also said to be the ancestor of monsters, alongside Taiyang Zhuzhao. The two together gave birth to the four sacred beasts.
So, is the Youying recorded on this ancient orichalcum tree a certain cultivation method that contains the Yin attribute, or is it a record about the Youying demon god?
"Perhaps this ancient orichalcum tree can be called the ancient Youying tree."
"I was able to understand the ancient Youying tree because I borrowed the light from the Tai Chi Heart Sutra and Star Gazing Technique."
"The "Tai Chi Heart Sutra" can transform the Yin Qi, and the "Star Gazing Technique" can visualize the stars in the sky. Doesn't it coincide with the word "Youying"?"
After watching the ancient tree groan for a while, Jiang Xuan then looked at the little tiger:
"This ancient orichalcum tree is not a suppressive object. Is it used to suppress this dead place?"
Little Tiger shook his head:
"At first glance, this place of death was formed innately. This ancient tree was placed in the place of death by later generations for cultivation. I guess they wanted to refine it into some kind of magic weapon."
"Taking it away may increase the death energy in the Death Underworld, but with the ghost lantern fish there, it won't be a big problem."
"The more death energy there is, the faster the ghost lantern fish will grow and reproduce."
"Okay, take this ancient tree with you when you go back."
After deciding the ownership of the ancient tree in a few words, Jiang Xuan then asked again:
"Who do you think put this ancient orichalcum tree here?"
Little Tiger shook his head again:
"It doesn't matter who put it here."
"Since I didn't put a mark on the ancient orichalcum tree, and the young master discovered this ancient orichalcum tree, then this ancient orichalcum tree belongs to you, young master."
"If the man refuses to accept it, there will be someone on the mountain who will convince him."
Secretly giving a thumbs up to the group of uncles and masters on the mountain who had never met before, Jiang Xuang just wanted to say something, but suddenly turned his head and looked at the ancient tree.
"Ah Huang, search the ancient trees carefully."
"There seems to be something watching me in the ancient tree."
When the little tiger heard this, he immediately turned back into a tiger and breathed wind at the ancient tree.
"Yeah, yeah~"
Under the raging wind, a crisp scream suddenly reached Jiang Xuan's ears.
Then in an instant, Ah Huang, who had returned to the size of a small tiger, flew to Jiang Xuan like a small man offering a treasure:
"Master, look what I caught?"
Looking at the little tiger with a yellow hat in its paws, a blue shirt, a red ribbon, and black boots, with painted eyebrows and about an inch long, Jiang Xuan's heart moved, and then he spoke with some uncertainty.
:
"Turtle treasure?"
"Hey, young master, how did you know?"
Little Tiger's words were full of surprise:
"The turtle treasures discovered by monks before were four or five inches long. I thought you would call this little guy a villain."
As he spoke, the little tiger stretched out its sharp paws that were retracted in its paw pads, and asked with a hint of uncertainty:
"Then young master, do you want to integrate this turtle treasure into yourself?"
Jiang Xuan flicked the turtle treasure and then shook his head:
"Forget it. Although the turtle treasure is magical, I don't know how to use it."
The turtle treasure is made from the essence and blood of a giant turtle.
In Jiang Xuan's opinion, this guy is actually similar to a blood voodoo, or in other words, it is originally a voodoo residing in the giant turtle's body.
It's just that the blood-nourishing Gu can be used to fight enemies, but the turtle-nourishing treasure can have three-point vision and the ability to recognize all the rare treasures in the world.
But if you want to nourish both, you need to cut your own flesh and blood, then put them into the flesh and blood and provide them with essence and blood.
If you want to drive them, you have to consume your own blood and essence. The more times you use them, the more your essence and blood will be consumed.
Even if it is only kept in the body once and not used, there is a minimum consumption of essence and blood.
Although this turtle treasure is magical, Jiang Xuanzhi will live forever, so naturally he will not do such things that waste his essence and blood.
"Then young master, who will raise this turtle treasure?"
"This guy has shrunk to the size of a tiny human. If he doesn't get raised, he probably won't live much longer."
"I don't know how it survived in this dead place until now."
