The ancient trees of the Earth's veins are also in the network of the source of the Faceless Holy Emperor's power.
Therefore, after Ruomu surrendered, the ancient tree of the earth had a vague feeling in his heart. However, he could not be sure, but the feeling of fear and uneasiness in his heart was growing day by day.
"Now that we are all subordinates of the Holy Emperor, and with the Holy Emperor's blessing, is it possible that He still dares to do anything to me?" Gushu could only comfort himself in this way.
The ancient tree of the earth clearly knew that only the Holy Emperor could save his life in this world.
And the more useful you are in the holy pilgrimage, the safer you will be.
Therefore, the Ancient Earth Tree couldn't wait to prove its worth to the Holy Emperor.
It's a pity that since he came to Daqi in the Holy Dynasty, he seems to have been forgotten. No one has taken the initiative to look for him.
Even the previously assigned task of sorting out the leylines of the small world of Daqi, no one came to check it.
This made the Earthline Ancient Tree quite depressed.
However, on this day, the opportunity for Gu Shu to perform finally came.
The person who came was none other than the fifth disciple of the Holy Emperor, Ou Shangtian.
"Is this a schematic diagram of the flow of earth veins in the Xuanhuang Realm?"
Ou Shangtian asked, pointing to the image in front of him.
They are densely packed, like a large underground network, extending to all parts of the Xuanhuang Realm.
Just like the blood vessels in the human body, they are constantly shrinking and beating. It looks quite weird.
The Ancient Earth Vein Tree nodded and said, "Young Master, I understand."
Ou Shangtian also seemed to appreciate the praise of the ancient tree, and simply accepted the title of "little venerable".
"I heard from Senior Sister Lin Ling that when walking on the currents of the Earth's veins, the power of the Heavenly Dao in the Xuanhuang Realm spontaneously obscures it, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect it. Is that true?" Ou Shangtian asked again.
"That's right." The ancient tree of the earth vein handed over a dead branch, "My dear sir, let's take a look."
Ou Shangtian felt the power of the earth veins surging in the dead branches and frowned slightly: "I don't think this is a big deal. How can we block other people's perception?"
The ancient earth vein tree smiled slightly: "Young Master, please note that sand gathers to form a tower, and water drips into rivers. Although the power of a little earth vein may not seem very impressive, when all the earth veins in the Xuanhuang Realm are gathered together, it is really mighty.
, seems to have the power of thunder.”
"In the final analysis, the circulation of earth veins is also an important part of the normal operation of the Xuanhuang Realm, and the old man is just holding its power. Compared with the eloquent principles of the entire Xuanhuang Realm, ordinary monks are just like ants, and it is normal for them to be ignored
.”
Ou Shangtian stared at the diagram of the earth's veins flowing and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he came back to his senses, returned the withered branches of the earth vein, and said: "It just so happens that I am going out to carry out the tasks assigned by Master this time, and I may need your help."
This is what Earthline Ancient Tree was waiting for. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and said, "Young Master, please give me your orders. I will help you wholeheartedly."
"There is a senior with unpredictable power in the Xuanhuang Realm, who carries a stone slab on his back... do you know?" Ou Shangtian looked at the ancient tree of the earth vein and asked.
The expression of the ancient tree in the earth's veins suddenly changed, and the previous hospitality disappeared in an instant.
He stared at Ou Shangtian in disbelief, and after a while he asked tentatively: "Little venerable master, is the Holy Dynasty going to take action against Senior Shiban?"
"With all due respect, Shiban is truly in the realm of immortality, and has been enlightened for many years..."
Ou Shangtian waved his hand impatiently: "Of course I know the strength of that stone slab. Is it the realm of immortality?"
"Compared to Master, it is nothing!"
"Don't worry, I'm just responsible for luring them to a specific place."
Hearing what Ou Shangtian said, the ancient tree of the earth was slightly relieved.
Since the mysterious Faceless Holy Emperor could subdue his father, it wouldn't be a big problem to deal with this stone slab.
Gushu cheered up: "Little venerable master, may I ask how I can cooperate?"
Ou Shangtian explained the detailed plan, and Gu Shu nodded thoughtfully, indicating that the problem was not big.
"Without further delay, I will leave immediately after I meet Master."
The ancient tree said: "My true body is still in Xuanhuang. As long as the little venerable calls me, I can appear at any time."
Ou Shangtian hurriedly entered the Holy Throne.
By the time he walked out, the anxiety on his face had disappeared.
"I have Kungan bone hands, and a seven-colored jade gilded body to protect me. This time, I even received a treasure from my master. I have also learned formations for such a long time..."
"All we need to do is lead it to the fishing pond, and the mission is completed. There should be no big problem."
"But isn't the fishing pond a treasured place for our holy pilgrimage? Why did Master ask me to lure the enemy there? Aren't we afraid of any accidents?"
Ou Shangtian thought about it but couldn't figure it out.
But in the end, I was too lazy to worry about so much, so I left the small world of Daqi and headed straight to the Nine Mountains State of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
With the help of the turbulent ground currents, it took only a cup of tea to reach the territory of Jiushan Prefecture.
Ou Shangtian tried it, and sure enough, the space laws here were a bit confusing and fragile.
If the teleportation technique is used rashly, it is very likely that the space will be torn apart directly, and the person will be sucked into the turbulent flow of space and disappear without a trace.
"But there is no problem with flying. These nine mountains can be difficult for ordinary monks, but they cannot be difficult for me with the colorful divine light."
Ou Shangtian thought so, and under his deliberate control, the seven-colored jade gilded light formed a circle of protection outside the body. Like the sun in the sky, it constantly exudes its own rhythm to the outside world.
With a slight movement in his mind, a pair of armor with the same colorful luster suddenly appeared on Ou Shangtian.
The master's words rang in Ou Shangtian's ears at the same time: "This object is called [Liuguang Armor], which is made from the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt and Morning Breath Neon. After wearing it, the flying speed can be compared with that of lightning. More
Can ignore most attack methods..."
Ou Shangtian gave it a try.
Looking at the top of the mountains ahead from a distance, he was in a daze, and the next moment he was at the top of the mountain.
"So fast!?" Ou Shangtian, the instigator, couldn't help but feel horrified.
With the dual blessing of the Flowing Light Armor and the Seven-Colored Jade Void Light, his speed has reached an incredible level.
Even though he was so ostentatious, with his whole body exuding colorful brilliance as he flew through the sky, the speed was so fast that no one in the entire Jiushan Prefecture could notice it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even the Hedao guard of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is the same.
Ou Shangtian was a little cautious at first, but after finally making sure that no one could detect him, he gradually relaxed.
He even felt a sense of pleasure in his heart.
"It's so happy, it's so happy!"
In the huge Jiushan Prefecture, he had already flown back and forth several times in just one breath. The feeling of lightning speed made Ou Shangtian a little intoxicated.
At the same time, I couldn't help but feel a little confused: "Can you draw out the stone slab by just flying non-stop like this?"
"Is it so mysterious? I'm so fast, so he can't find me, right?"
"Would you like me to try slowing down a little?"
Just when Ou Shangtian's mind was a little distracted, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.
A scene suddenly appeared in my mind.
The world suddenly darkened.
As if there were some invisible restraints, no matter how hard he ran, he could not escape from the darkness.
In despair, his body could only slowly slide towards the center of darkness.
…
"!"
Ou Shangtian was shocked.
He knew that this was a spontaneous warning from his other companion rare item besides the Kungan Bone Hand: the Book of All Deaths.
"What the hell? Slate?"
The foreseen scene made Ou Shangtian's hair stand on end. He made a prompt decision and detonated a crown he had prepared for a long time.
In an instant, countless formations were deployed, protecting Ou Shangtian in the center.
Only then did the illusion of eternal death slowly dissipate.
But the sense of crisis in Ou Shangtian's heart did not subside, because as a formation organizer, he could clearly feel that the hundreds of thousands of formations he had personally arranged around him were disappearing at an incredible speed.
But from beginning to end, he didn't see anyone breaking the formation. It was like something was silently devouring it.
The horror in his heart became more and more intense. While the protective formation was still effective, Ou Shangtian threw several more crowns around him.
Layers of formations were spread out one after another, and a shadow slowly appeared.
Ou Shangtian didn't dare to look any further.
"Leyline!"
With a secret cry in his heart, Ou Shangtian rushed straight from the sky into the ground.
Disappeared in an instant.
The thousands of formations he left behind were strangely compressed into page-like entities, and they all slowly floated in front of the figure that suddenly appeared.
The figure gradually revealed its true appearance, that of a scholar, and the stone slab behind it was really conspicuous.
Whenever he took a page from the book and read it, the page disappeared from his hand, the fluorescence flashed, and then it seemed to be imprinted on the stone slab.
The scholar was not in a hurry to chase after Ou Shangtian who had escaped, but read all the pages in his hand slowly.
His originally calm face gradually began to frown.
"Xuanhuang Realm, when did the formation develop to this point?"
"The light of the world..."
"Could it be an outsider?"
All the pages in his hand disappeared, and the scholar glanced at the location where Ou Shangtian was detected.
"It's so fast. There are even ancient trees from the Earth's veins as helpers..."
The scholar combed through the recent records on the slate.
No relevant records were found.
"There are more and more foreign states, and Slate, which claims to be omniscient, is gradually not living up to its name."
"Wouyou, you are right. There is never any eternity. The same goes for immortals, and so does the power that we immortals are proud of."
Although this matter clearly revealed the atmosphere of conspiracy, as if it wanted to seduce him.
But Shi Ban didn't have the slightest fear in his heart.
On the contrary, I am more curious.
Taking one step forward, the next moment he was already at the location where Ou Shangtian was before.
However, Ou Shangtian seemed to have been prepared for it. He had already taken a step ahead and penetrated into the earth's veins.
The earth veins are rushing and roaring, and even if it is a stone slab, it is difficult to find an ant in it.
However, Shiban was not in a hurry, knowing that the other party would definitely appear again, so he just stayed where he was and waited.
"Interesting. It seems that the person behind the scenes knows a little bit about me."
Instead of being annoyed at being teased, there was a faint smile on the slate face.
In this way, bit by bit, the stone slabs were drawn to a peaceful Taoist temple in the mountains.
Ou Shangtian no longer ran away, but stood respectfully behind a majestic figure.
Shiban's gaze also shifted from Ou Shangtian to this figure.
After observing for a moment, the smile at the corner of Shi Ban's mouth finally disappeared.
Instead, a trace of confusion and solemnity emerged.
The person in front of him gave him the feeling that he was somewhat familiar, but also a warning of danger.
"If you can't feel the aura of unity of body and mind, is it not the realm of immortality? Or, like me, is it the ancient method of immortality?" Shi Ban secretly speculated.
"Aren't you tired of just standing like this? Come in and sit down." After a moment of confrontation between the two sides, Li Ping took the initiative to speak.
Just one sentence broke the tense atmosphere.
It's not like enemies meeting each other, but like friends who haven't seen each other for many years, saying hello familiarly.
Shi Ban suddenly felt something strange in his heart.
But he still said softly: "Okay."
Follow Li Ping and enter the Taoist temple below.
After passing through the Taoist temple, Li Ping did not stop, but continued to a pond behind the Taoist temple.
"How long has it been since you carried this stone slab on your back?" Li Ping asked.
Shi Ban was startled for a moment, but then he didn't hide anything and replied: "Thirty-six thousand, nine hundred and forty-two years."
"Thirty-six thousand, nine hundred and forty-two years." Li Ping repeated the number.
"It sounds like a long time. But it is only more than 30,000 years. Compared with the life span of the Xuanhuang Realm, it is insignificant. Let alone the sea of stars outside the Xuanhuang Realm." Li Ping sighed.
Shiban also agreed: "Yes, thirty thousand years have passed in a blink of an eye. For the heaven and earth itself, it may not be worth mentioning. But for an ordinary person like me, it is really a long time."
"Ordinary people..." Ou Shangtian couldn't help but muttered in a low voice at this time.
Li Ping smiled: "Shang Tian, don't be rude. This senior is right, he is indeed just an ordinary person."
Ou Shangtian did not dare to disobey the Holy Emperor and quickly bowed to the stone slab to apologize.
Shi Ban didn't care about him at all, but stared straight at Li Ping: "You... seem to know me very well?"
Li Ping did not admit it: "It's just that I feel the same way."
"I am just an ordinary person, but I have accepted a destined mission."
When Ou Shangtian heard this, he buried his head lower. He was afraid that he would show any signs of strangeness.
Shi Ban was thoughtful and kept looking at Li Ping.
That tall figure is different from that of a monk in the ordinary sense.
The few auras lingering around his body were also extremely mysterious. Shi Ban didn't dare to underestimate them.
"Fellow Taoist, why did you bring me here? Is it possible that it was just for a quick chat?" In the end, Shi Ban asked all of them and stopped the fight between the two.
"I'm here to help fellow Taoists escape," Li Ping said solemnly.
These straightforward words made Ou Shangtian raise his head, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.
Shi Ban narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but become wary.
"It seems that fellow Taoist misunderstood me. I really want to help fellow Taoist escape." There was a trace of disappointment in Li Ping's tone.
The Faceless Holy Emperor pointed around.
"Is it possible that fellow Taoist fellow Daoist didn't notice anything wrong here?"
After hearing this, Shi Ban's attention shifted from the Faceless Holy Emperor to his left and right sides.
Looking around, my eyes finally landed on the small, calm pond.
