The old tree spirit immediately started complaining mode.
It turns out that tens of thousands of years ago, a group of people took away the "heart of the tree", causing its lifespan and cultivation to weaken.
"How do those people know you are here?" Lu Chen knew that after the old tree spirit became a spirit, ordinary humans would not be able to discover it, except for immortals.
But there are no immortals in Jiuyou Continent.
So Lu Chen looked curious.
"I don't know either. I just know that one day, several people wearing skull masks suddenly came and joined forces to seriously injure me and take away the heart of the tree." The old tree spirit said helplessly.
Lu Chen frowned, "Skull mask?"
"Yes, they all wear skull masks." The old tree spirit was very depressed.
Lu Chen became solemn, "What happened next?"
"They got the heart of the tree and ran away." The old tree spirit said helplessly, while Chase Lu comforted him, "Don't worry, sooner or later I will help you get the heart of the tree back!"
"Can I still get it back?" The old tree spirit suddenly became energetic.
Lu Chen explained, "Your tree heart is generally only suitable for use as a magic weapon or the power of some formations. As long as I find it, I can restore it and then restore it to your body!"
When the old tree spirit heard this, he immediately cheered up and said, "Thank you, Immortal Lu."
But Lu Chen still had a question, "With your Taoism, even if you are deprived of the tree spirit, your cultivation will not regress so much."
"Don't mention it!" This old tree spirit still had some unspeakable sufferings, and Lu Chen frowned, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"After my tree heart disappeared, I was quickly discovered by people from a nearby sect. In order to confuse them, I condensed a bunch of clones and distributed them around. But after tens of thousands of years, they have already taken these clones of me as their own.
Endless materials.”
"Material?"
"Yes, take the trunks of my clones to refine magic weapons."
Lu Chen didn't expect this old tree spirit to be so miserable and said, "Then take back all the clones."
"If I take it back, they will be able to find traces of me, I'm afraid!" The old tree spirit said in pain, and Chase Lu comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll take care of them for you when they come."
"But you!" The old tree spirit was a little worried about Lu Chen when he saw that Lu Chen was only in the qi training realm, but Lu Chen said with a smile, "What? Are you looking down on me so much?"
"No, it's just that this sect doesn't seem weak, and their disciples aren't simple either."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, it won't matter who comes!"
When the old tree spirit heard this, he was inexplicably moved and said, "I will slowly take back those clones!"
Lu Chenen asked after speaking, "By the way, what's going on with those women outside?"
Hearing this, the old tree spirit sighed, "Five years ago, a group of women were chased by a group of bandits and ran into this mountain. I thought they were pitiful, so I took them in and asked them to help me persuade some people nearby to go up the mountain.
Make sure no one finds out where I am!"
"Oh? Then you are so lucky to meet a little girl with a six-star mutant spirit bone."
"She is different from those women." The old tree spirit suddenly hesitated, and Lu Chen smiled and said, "Oh? Why is it different?"
"She was... I cultivated it with the last tear of the Tree Spirit Queen." When the old tree spirit said this, he did not dare to say anything else, because Lu Chen's face changed.
Queen of the Dryads.
A hundred thousand years ago, a woman appeared in his life and was considered his savior. However, he was still weak at the time and was being hunted by his enemies.
In order to protect herself, the Tree Spirit Queen led her entire clan to fight against those enemies.
As a result, the tree spirit clan was almost extinct, and even the tree spirit queen was weakened, leaving only a tear. Lu Chen gave this tear to the only descendant of the tree spirit clan, this little sapling.
Even though Lu Chen later killed the enemy, Lu Chen still had a shadow in his heart. He always felt that he had killed the tree spirit queen.
So when Lu Chen heard this, his whole body was stunned and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"Xian Lu, don't be too sad. At least the tears of the Tree Spirit Queen were not in vain." The old tree spirit comforted her, and Lu Chen took a deep breath and asked, "What's her name?"
"Hua Ling Mu." The old tree spirit replied, and Lu Chen nodded and said, "How many years did she grow before she became a human?"
"Since my tree heart died, I was afraid that I would no longer be able to take care of that teardrop, so I used my remaining power to cultivate her, and it took her tens of thousands of years to transform into a human baby."
"Human baby?"
"Yes, about ten years ago, she crawled out of a flower bud, so I named her Hualingmu, and she is also very lively and cute." The old tree spirit laughed.
"Hua Ling Mu." Lu Chen nodded slightly, and the old tree spirit suddenly said with nostalgia, "If the queen knows that she has descendants, she will definitely be happy."
Lu Chen took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely resurrect your queen when I get the chance!"
"What? Resurrection?" The old tree spirit started in shock.
Lu Chenen said, "I have practiced a skill. As long as my cultivation level improves, I will be able to be resurrected!"
"But she was damaged a hundred thousand years ago. Can she still be found?"
"I have a way." Lu Chen replied, and the old tree spirit said gratefully, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do. After all, it was me who harmed your entire family!" Lu Chen said, his voice was a little stuck.
The old tree spirit knew that Chase Lu was feeling uncomfortable, so he comforted him, "Xian Lu, this is what the queen is willing to do, so don't be too sad!"
"It's because of my willingness that I can't forget the fact that your people fell in front of me, especially the moment when your queen shed her last tear." When Lu Chen thought of this, he felt as if it had just happened, and his whole body felt uncomfortable.
The old tree spirit didn't know what to say and could only watch silently.
Until there was a burst of shouting outside, and the old tree spirit was shocked, "No, I took back my clone, and the person from Mutianmen found it!"
"I'll go out and take a look." Lu Chen quickly sprinted out.
...
At this moment, the trees outside have disappeared. Instead, the women are standing on the little girl, surrounded by flower spirit trees to protect her, and in front are a group of monks wearing green clothes.
There is also a word "wood" engraved on the clothes.
These monks looked very fierce, and when they arrived, they stared at Hualingmu, as if these people all knew Hualingmu.
"It's this girl!" a monk shouted.
"Yes, she was the one who attacked me last time!"
"Finally found her!"
"Get her!"
Some monks rushed forward immediately, and the women immediately rushed out to stop them.
But after all, those women were too weak to compete with these foundation-building masters, and Hua Lingmu was restrained by Lu Chen's vines, so she could only worry there.
Especially when she saw women being seriously injured, she hurriedly shouted, "Sisters, you go first!"
"If you don't leave, we have to protect you!" a woman shouted, and other women also shouted, "Yes, if we die, we will die before you!"
Then some of the remaining women also rushed forward. Hua Lingmu became anxious and cried out, "Sisters, quickly, get back!"
But those women were very persistent. As for Hua Lingmu, he had no choice but to look at the standing Jia Luo and beg, "Please, help, help me save my sisters!"
Huha~ Hua Lingmu didn't understand what Jia Luo was saying at all, and Hua Lingmu was so anxious, "Can't you just say something personal?"
Jia Luo also thought about it, but he couldn't say it and could only worry about it.
As for the women in front of them, they fell down one by one, and some even had their limbs cut off. The end could be said to be very miserable.
The man at the head said coldly, "If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
But these women were very persistent and wanted to protect the flower spirit tree, but the leading man was annoyed and said, "You actually want to die, so I will help you!"
