Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

The star is wrapped.

On a golden hot sphere with a diameter of more than 1.4 million kilometers, coronas of millions of degrees are erupting one after another. They will rush into space for hundreds of thousands of kilometers like fountains, emitting huge amounts of heat and the thinness of the sun. Material, if the hurricane formed directly hits a planet at close range, it can instantly melt everything on its surface and turn it into a huge piece of space glass.

But now, such a violent star is wrapped up. It was inserted, covered, and smeared with its own color by countless densely packed tree roots that showed a bronze color.

Three-quarters of it has been plunged into pitch black darkness, with only a few spots of light showing through the thinner areas of the tree roots.

The wriggling plant roots not only cover it, but also penetrate deeply into the inside of the star. It is absorbing the material of the star and regulating the nuclear reactions inside the main sequence star, making it burn more stably and live longer.

And the remaining quarter is not that the tree root itself cannot cover it, but that it is deliberately set aside to shine on a star.

More than that.

Outside the knotted root system surrounding the star, there are many broken space-time structures like jets. Green light overflows from them, and a large amount of pure material dust flows out from them, turning into a mighty material river.

This long river flows from the other end of time and space, and eventually sinks into the root system, making it grow and grow.

The essence of this material river is the spiritual root system that travels through time and space. The master of the root system is folding time and space with the energy of a star, dissolving planets one after another that are dozens or hundreds of light years away. Or draw rare high spirit resources from the vast sea of ​​nebulae.

If you look at it from the perspective of a practitioner, at this moment, in the entire planetary system, the original light cyan halo of spiritual energy has completely turned into green, the attributeless spiritual energy, and the golden true flame of the sun have all turned into The breath of armored wood blows out a storm and sweeps through the hole in the universe.

That's a tree.

A sacred tree called the Banyan Immortal Tree, after receiving the enlightenment of a traveler from another world, the attention of a great being, and the 'help' of many explorers in the pioneer space, it grew to its limit and put its own life on the line. Extending into the 'starry sky', it is a genuine starry sky sacred tree.

And a man stood in the starry sky, looking out.

Stars that could shine for billions of years were captured and devoured by sacred trees that were no more than a few hundred years old, so that all the light that should have illuminated the surrounding world was used for oneself.

It’s hard to imagine, hard to understand.

It’s hard not to admire it, and it’s hard not to yearn for it.

Zhou Buyi stood in the void. In front of him was the Immortal Sacred Tree that had extended its tentacles into other galaxies and was blossoming and bearing fruit in many time and space to expand its territory.

Behind the man was the extremely shining jet flame of the Tianzheng Alliance's seventh space immigration fleet. The silver-blue flames drew a bright arc in the dark universe. The brilliance was even more dazzling than the sun itself. It is the materialization of man’s desire to move beyond heaven and earth.

The empty vacuum suddenly erupted with an internal space-time earthquake, and the wormhole was opened. The super technology originated from the explorers of other worlds allowed the Tianzheng Alliance to develop a space colonization spacecraft in less than two hundred years.

Of course, there is also the reason why the Tianzheng Alliance has never wasted any energy or resources on infighting from beginning to end.

【Why? 】

There was such a mighty sound, accompanied by an extremely hot stream of light. This ultra-high-intensity energy fluctuation, which was enough to burn and melt ordinary planets, could not move the expression of the man named Zhou Buyi at all. Even the corners of his clothes are fixed in place. As the name suggests, they are not easy to break in front of the solar wind.

This is the doubt of the Shenmu. The words of the Shenmu are that only another Shenmu can listen to the fluctuations of induction. Zhou Buyi, who is also the successor to the Shenmu, understands the confusion of his own kind: [Why do you always have to go to a distant place? What about the other side? 】

This is indeed doubtful.

The sacred tree, from beginning to end, has never been an enemy of humans - the only thing that can kill humans is their own hearts.

The green wood aura that fills the entire solar system has cut off the general cycle of the five elements in some respects, but this is not a drive away, but a complete tolerance - the sacred trees will replace the stars and become the entire ecosystem. The complete source of the circle, on many planets infected by the power of the divine tree, will give birth to many descendants of the divine tree.

Human beings are the dependents of the sun, so why can't they be the dependents of the sacred trees? The Banyan Immortal Tree originally thought that humans were so repulsive to the sacred tree because of the legend of the Demon Emperor in the past. However, in recent years, he communicated with his kindred named "Ji Ji" and found that this was not the case. .

Human beings do not exclude themselves. If this is the case, then why do we have to stay away?

"The eternal sacred tree..."

Sighing softly, the man couldn't help but show a helpless smile when facing the Starry Sky Sacred Tree, but this smile was not so much helpless as it was a kind of reserved pride: "We are not far away."

Zhou Buyi raised his head and looked up at the stars in the universe. This infinitely vast dim space-time was so vast. Even if it were a sacred tree that could wrap the stars, how long would it take to explore one-tenth of the Milky Way?

Human beings are small, and so are sacred trees. Compared with the infinite, any finite thing is small.

However, just as human beings are a kind of people who use limited life, limited wisdom, limited cognition and limited energy to explore infinite knowledge, seek infinite wisdom, recognize the infinite universe, and admit the infinite unknown.

Since the emergence of intelligence, the human species has given itself a natural destiny.

“That’s exploring more possibilities.”

Zhou Buyi said: "We don't want to escape the shade of your broad branches and leaves, the Banyan Tree is immortal. It's not a question of whether we want to or not."

"It's that we want to have an alternative to living under the shade of a tree."

"One possibility."

【...can understand】

And the sacred tree sent a mixed wave of suddenness and relief. This is because of human desire, it is born, because of human desire, it grows, because of human desire, wisdom is opened, and because of human desire, it is also because of human desire that they choose to look at the starry sky instead of looking at the stars. A sacred tree that lives in a corner like thousands of its kind.

He can naturally understand the endless desires in the hearts of the humans in front of him, as well as the billions of humans behind him who are focusing their eyes on distant galaxies.

[But it’s also difficult to understand]

The sacred tree that wrapped the stars also followed Zhou Buyi's gaze and looked at the distant stars. He slowly said: "Because you are unwilling to accept the fate of being covered by my tree's shadow; because humans have given themselves the ability to explore more possibilities." destiny]

[Human beings choose to resist one fate and implement another fate - as if they have been shrouded in the so-called fate from beginning to end]

"indeed so."

Lowering his head, Zhou Buyi did not refute. He just stared at his open palms and said calmly: "Be protected by you, and then follow your roots to other planets to develop slowly; or maybe in your Move forward under pressure and take the initiative to go to the other side of distant time and space."

"It all seems to be a choice...and once you make a choice, it's fate."

Looking at the distant sacred tree, the starry sky sacred tree that only covers three-quarters of the sun is like an eyeball with hot and bright pupils. Zhou Buyi smiled and said: "And who can make a choice? Not yet. We humans ourselves—and humans choose because of character and belief.”

"That's enough. Acknowledge the choices you make and work hard for the results you want. In the final analysis, fate or not, what do you care about?"

【It’s amazing】

The Banyan Immortal Tree sighed with emotion: "In the future, it may be possible for you to become a more powerful sacred tree than me."

"If there is no miracle." Zhou Buyi smiled and said: "I'm afraid it's unlikely - I originally imitated you to become a sacred tree, and my qualifications are not top-notch. It is indeed a bit better to surpass you who have been ahead for hundreds of years. difficulty."

The two of them were speechless at this moment.

Zhou Buyi turned his head and looked at the home port of the Tianzheng Alliance immigration fleet on Mars.

What is in front of us is a port that spans among the stars and carries the hope of the future of mankind. The eternally surging exploration fleet emerges from it. Even the brilliance of the Taixu Stars cannot obscure its tail flames.

This endless search and advancement may be the destiny of human beings.

Ever since the Hundred Alliances defeated the Demon Emperor in the past, established the Tianzheng Alliance, and ushered in the subsequent era of space exploration, and the subsequent 'Era of Pioneer Space Explorers', such a fate seems to have been created.

In order to maintain a private space for mankind from the ever-expanding territory of the sacred tree, the Tianzheng Alliance went to the moon, to Mars, and established a fuel relay station at Jupiter, creating an unprecedented civilization that spanned the entire solar system.

Although the price of all this is that the giant companies in the major star engineering fields have grown and even controlled many key departments within the alliance... But what is shocking is that these giant companies have not really corrupted themselves into the so-called "cyber" punk' point.

They do have privileges, but this privilege is also gained through work, technology, and never-ending exploration.

Some people say that this is all because of the many knights with extraordinary powers who threaten the leaders of giant corporations.

Some people say that all this is due to the changes brought about by pioneer space explorers from different universes, which made many giant companies aware of the existence of "external forces".

Some people say that behind all this peace is actually a strong man who has been committed to maintaining peace since the beginning of the alliance, secretly suppressing all big business leaders who have other ideas.

In fact, all three are true.

In order to accelerate the development of technology, Zhou Buyi single-handedly created a giant enterprise. At the same time, the foundation of the former Demon Conquering Bureau also became a knight-errant force that spread throughout the Tianzheng Alliance.

Humanity's noble moral ideals restrict the barbaric growth of human desires.

As for the pioneer space explorers from another world, those who want to obtain resources from giant corporations, obtain skills from the Knight Alliance, and want to explore the truth about the background of this world.

They will bring distant scenery, superior technology, and a seed called hope.

So far, the seeds have blossomed and bear fruit, and the sacred trees in the sky have covered the stars. Human beings, who are capable of traveling across the stars, will bring the everlasting foundation of humankind to every corner of the universe.

The guardian behind the Tianzheng Alliance, Zhou Buyi, who was called the 'Shadow Sacred Tree', 'Guardian of the Alliance' and 'Hidden BOSS' by many pioneer explorers, could finally put aside his responsibilities temporarily.

Try... just like a real sacred tree, together with the Banyan Immortal Tree, use your almost eternal lifespan to gaze at the twinkling of every star in the starry sky.

certainly.

Zhou Buyi is a human being.

But for people, it is difficult to learn to wait like trees.

As a human being, it is difficult to refuse invitations from others, such as invitations such as 'go out for a walk' or 'let's have a meal together'.

The most important thing is that Zhou Buyi has a friend who is the number one rehabilitation expert in the multiverse.

It is impossible to live peacefully with such friends.

So he heard the call.

"I need a favor!"

The voice originated from the other end of the unknown void, as if it came from before the ancient time and from the distant time. With a smile, it extended an invitation to Zhou Buyi, who was planning to be a guest on the sacred tree Dyson Sphere: "I have a group of quilts here. People who are troubled by fate need your help - don't worry, I will block any other gods for you, and you only need..."

"Just change the world."

There was no hesitation at all, as if he had known for a long time that he would hear such a voice sooner or later.

The man who was about to take a rest raised his head, the light in his eyes flashing brightly.

Zhou Buyi looked up at the top of the void, he laughed and said: "Su Zhou, it's rare that you invite me. The Pioneer Space is full of news about you. You have done a lot of big things recently."

Without waiting for Su Zhou to reply, the man said firmly: "How can your invitation not be a big deal? You came here and helped us open up a new path, so I will naturally help you."

"I agreed."

"……good."

Even Su Zhou felt happy to hear such a straightforward reply. Immediately, supreme divine power penetrated time and space. Guided by the scales of the gods, a silver door of time and space appeared in front of Zhou Buyi: "You are not afraid of danger. ?"

Zhou Buyi asked back: "When you decided to fight the Demon Emperor and decide the winner with me, were you afraid of danger?"

Although it is a question to answer a question, it is indeed a good answer.

[Goodbye, Zhou Buyi]

Facing this time and space gate, Panrong Immortal Tree said: [Hello, Su Zhou]

He wasn't surprised at all. Rather, what were the things that could make Shenmu stunned?

After all, everything that exists and everything that happens makes sense.

"Hello, Banyan Immortal Tree." Su Zhou replied easily: "This time is a bit hasty. I will invite you to hang out next time."

"Speaking of which, have you ever heard of Zhu Ritian?"

…

Just when Su Zhou asked the Panyan Immortal Tree to benefit Zhu Zhoutian, and hoped that he would help build Zhu Zhoutian's office in the Shenmu World.

With a burst of bright light, Zhou Buyi arrived at the time and space calling him.

——Prelude Era·Great Cardolan Desert——

A guard who was seriously injured and bleeding from his abdomen was breathing softly at the bottom of the dune, supported by a princess in a gorgeous dress.

The guard had spent all her energy fighting with the assassin who had come to attack before. In order to stabilize the guard's injury, the princess took the initiative to tear open her long skirt, bandage the guard's wound with soft silk, and endured the exhaustion, over and over again. Singing a healing song again and again, hoping to restore some physical strength to the guard.

"I can still fight." After resting for a while, guard Alan stood up with force. He wanted to hold his knife tightly, even though the princess Eve on the side looked worried.

"You can't." She said, trying to push the guard back: "Give me the knife, I can still sing miracles and still have fighting power."

"How can we let the princess go into battle to kill the enemy..." Alan was naturally unwilling, but just building the altar with sand and singing the song of summons really used up all his remaining energy.

But he still insisted: "You cannot be allowed to use miracles - it doesn't matter if I die. Princess, you must protect yourself and not be exposed until the king's reinforcements arrive!"

It's a desperate situation anyway. We can't let the princess really show a miraculous fluctuation, expose her position to the Lower Elam Kingdom, and attract a new batch of assassins, right?

Alan was already determined to die, otherwise, he would not have listened to the sudden oracle fluctuations in his heart and prayed to heaven.

"Without you, I wouldn't have been able to walk out of the desert alone."

Eve didn't think so. This strong lady dared to fight, and she never felt that her blood was particularly valuable. She had already made up her mind, even if her position was exposed, she must use the Great Miracle. He couldn't let this guard who protected him with his own life die in front of him.

And just when the two were trying to convince each other.

The silver door of brilliance opens.

Alan waited for the 'helper' he hoped for.

I have also waited for the person who will change the world, change fate, and bring new choices.

"What a barren world."

The man with black hair and green eyes walked out of the prison with a smile. He looked around the entire world of music, the ancient continent of Ilotar.

He turned his head and looked at the guard and the princess who were looking at him in a daze.

The man who once saved the world with heroes and led civilization forward for a long time stretched out his hand to them: "It seems that you are the ones who summoned me? This is the first time we meet, my name is Zhou Buyi."

"I……"

The guard Yalan nodded blankly, endured the pain, and stretched out his hand: "My name is Yalan..."

"My name is Eve." The princess on the other side also extended her hand generously, and they shook hands with Zhou Buyi alternately: "Excuse me, are you..."

"Me?" The man raised his brows. He thought seriously for a while, and then said seriously: "According to what that guy said, I should be considered..."

"Candleday."

"Now, I am also Zhu Zhou."
