The Fairy Just Wants To Lie Down
Chapter 485 The talent and stupidity of someone who only entered Taoism at the age of eighty
The world of spiritual practice, the ancient sacred mountain.
In a quiet pool, the sunlight shines through, and shadows are spread on the rocks. An old tree takes root on the bluestone of the pool.
The old tree has entangled roots, twists and turns like a coiled dragon, and is full of green leaves. It reaches nine meters to the top. Compared with the surrounding towering trees, it appears to be extremely short.
He has existed for nearly 100,000 years. When he opens his spiritual wisdom, in order to understand the knowledge of the world, he will bear some fruits on the trunk, attracting birds to swallow them and help him open his spiritual wisdom. Then as a reward, birds will fly all over the world, and if they survive to the end of their lives, they will come back and tell the story of their lives.
This method of asking for information is extremely inefficient. If you release tens of thousands of birds, you may not get one back. But the old tree never tired of it and kept releasing birds.
Because it is in line with nature and in line with his wishes
Birds fly high and fallen leaves return to their roots, it’s all natural.
At that time, the world still heard about Taoism and the Supreme Being of all Taoism in the world. At that time, the old tree had thought that if one day it could rise from the ground, it would definitely go to visit the Taoist sect and learn the supreme method of heaven and earth.
At that time, he was still young and shallow, and he once envied the colorful world outside.
Later, he heard about the battle between dragon and phoenix, the battle between the two clans, and the heaven and earth were almost reduced to nothing. This time, many birds came back because they needed to escape.
At the same time, many creatures were brought back.
The old tree had lived for 10,000 years at this time, and with some spiritual skills, it was able to avoid the catastrophe of dragons and phoenixes.
They say the dragon and phoenix are powerful, they say the dragon clan is strong and the phoenix clan is prosperous, but no one can tell why the dragon and phoenix started the war?
When he was about 20,000 years old, the birds that came back no longer mentioned Taoism, and only heard a few words about Wandao Guiyi.
Legend has it that someone framed all the Taos together and reopened the principles of heaven and earth.
Laoshu didn't understand, he was too weak at that time.
Although he has lived for 20,000 years, as a plant and tree, he is born without flesh and blood and has no self. Many acquired spirits are dull and muddy day and night, and 20,000 years is actually only 200 years of awakening.
The old tree was not anxious about this, and he didn't know why he was anxious.
Continue to practice.
When you are awake, listen to the birds and talk about the changes in heaven and earth. And most of them are called invincible and dominate the world, and then the youth changes to another generation.
Although the top experts in the world have lifespans of thousands of years, they still need to spend most of their time reaching the top, and the rest of them have to fight against the five declines of heaven and man. The peak of each generation of the strongest generally lasts only 500 years.
The old tree spirit has heard many names, but most of them can't be remembered.
Because it is so common, for his long life, it is like the weeds on the roots of his tree, changing from generation to generation, but it seems that nothing has changed.
But the strong ones in heaven and earth are getting weaker and weaker.
Unknowingly, the old tree spirit found that he had become the strongest person in the world. The roots extend into the ground, and the spiritual consciousness sweeps through all things in the world, and the highest level is entering the Tao.
Even those who enter the Tao may not necessarily be pure, and they rely entirely on their own understanding of the Tao to enter the Tao.
A kind of melancholy came to my heart.
The old tree spirit closed himself off and planned to wait for a few thousand more years. Perhaps then the world would be more interesting.
Until one day, a sword cry echoed through the sky.
It was a familiar sword intent, one that had appeared in ancient times. When he was still weak, the sword intent penetrated the dragon-phoenix battle.
The Supreme Sword Intent.
It's not like those juniors in the past took the blessings of their predecessors and copied the sword intent from the gourd.
The old tree spirit woke up and saw a woman in white. With the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, she could kill the demon saint with one sword.
Amazing talent and beauty, unparalleled in the world.
The old tree spirit asked the bird: "Who is she?"
"Sword Immortal, the most talented person in the Sword Sect for thousands of years, can master the Heavenly Sword at the age of ten."
"Ten years old? It's not enough for me to fall off my leaves once. Talent is indeed rare and valuable."
An old tree has five hundred years of spring and five hundred years of autumn. The woman named Sword Immortal only spent a few decades to complete her thousand-year journey.
Looking at the ancient times, it is rare in the world to enter Taoism at the age of 500.
What's more, she is a human race, a mortal creature. Compared to birds and beasts, they have intelligence, but compared to dragons, their bloodline is like mud.
"Help me go see the era of the Sword Immortal."
The old tree spirit became more interested. Maybe it was because he hadn't heard about the outside world for too long, or maybe he saw the unparalleled sword intent again.
Countless springs and autumns passed, and the person who came back to tell the story was not a bird, but a human being.
A human being who also possesses the Supreme Sword Intent.
The sword fairy is dead.
————————————
Outside Xiaoshitan.
A round-headed tiger demon approached cautiously, followed by a human behind him.
The man's appearance was ordinary, his eyes were as cold as sword blades, and he was wearing a light red robe. The red was dark and heavy, as if it was a stain that could not be washed away after countless times of washing.
He held a simple iron sword in his arms.
Some obese tigers did not have the majesty of tigers roaring in the mountains and forests in the past. They carefully accompanied the men, and their light-footed appearance was a bit more honest.
And how can it dare to be majestic? The man behind it is even more terrifying than the Sword Immortal back then.
After all, the sword fairy made a request, but it was just a warning to the few mountain demon kings approaching Kyushu. Others should eat and drink, so forget about joining forces to help.
Not relatives or friends, who do you think you are?
Those within the Ancient Sacred Mountain who have enmity with humans are usually the demon kings in the outer circle, while many of the monsters in the inner circle have never seen humans in their lives. Because the world is so big, even the ancient sacred mountains may not be able to be visited in a lifetime, let alone the world of cultivation.
But this man suddenly rushed into the ancient sacred mountain and beat up all the famous demon kings and demon saints before finally making a request.
He needs a precious medicine, one that can reverse the life and death of a human being who is infinitely close to the Demon Saint.
The tiger demon was also present at that time, and he could see that the demon saints and demon kings had troubled looks on their faces. No one nodded even if they put their swords on their necks.
Obviously the demon saints really can't come up with this kind of treasure.
If you want to find the elixir to prolong life, they can find it. The most indispensable thing in the Ancient Sacred Mountain is elixir. But if they can save the Demon Saint who is approaching his end and whose foundation is seriously damaged, he might as well kill them.
There is such a good thing, but everyone eats it by themselves. Where can I keep it?
Later, a demon saint mentioned this place.
Xiaoshitan is a place where the ancient sacred mountain has existed for thousands of years. It does not have any spiritual veins of the spiritual mountain, but it has gradually become known to people because it has existed for so long.
It has now become a forbidden area.
Except for those little monsters who don't understand anything, the demon saints and demon kings usually don't dare to approach this place.
Because there is an old tree spirit there, which has existed for at least tens of thousands of years.
So the demon saints chose the tiger demon to lead the way. It was a mere golden elixir demon that didn't even come to the demon king. It could be said that it was flattered.
He was so frightened that he almost fainted on the spot
"Honored... venerable sir, walk in and you will reach the small stone pool."
The fat tiger demon overlapped two fleshy mats and handed them over, imitating human etiquette. He belongs to the inner circle of monsters and this is his first time meeting a human, but he has read some books after all.
With a life span of hundreds or thousands of years, I have been exposed to many things, and I understand many things naturally.
"What's inside is the sacred tree."
Li Changsheng searched with his consciousness and sensed a tree in the pool. It was ordinary and had no spirituality.
It's just that those demon saints are so sure, and they can't run away from their own mountains to avoid deceiving themselves.
I can't see through it.
Li Changsheng commented like this, and a hint of color ignited in his dead eyes.
"Let's go."
"Just wait outside, don't dare to enter."
The tiger demon shook his head repeatedly.
Xiaoshitan is not a dangerous place, but since the demon saints don't dare to enter, he, a little golden elixir monster, dares not to enter.
Li Changsheng stepped into the small stone pool, and a cool breeze blew in. What he saw was not a holy place, but a small pool that could be seen at a glance.
"Senior, junior Li Changsheng came to find the medicine to bring the dead back to life."
He bowed his hands and bowed respectfully. After waiting for a whole day, the old tree in the pond still didn't respond.
Li Changsheng repeated it again and waited for another day, but still no reply.
It seemed like it was just an ordinary tree, at least in his perception there was nothing surprising about it.
Li Changsheng repeated for the third time: "Junior Li Changsheng is here to find the medicine that can bring the dead back to life."
The small stone pool is quiet and the breeze blows, just like always.
Zheng! ! !
The sword light rising into the sky cut through the darkness, and the ancient sacred mountain was like daylight for thousands of miles.
The Heavenly Sword struck the trunk of an old tree in the pool, and the three subsequent peaks hundreds of meters high were split into two, while the ordinary old tree remained unscathed.
Li Changsheng slashed out with his sword again. The sword light was enough to cut off seas and open mountains, but it could not leave any trace on the withered bark of the tree.
His breathing became rapid.
The more incredible the old tree is, the more likely it is that there is a medicine that can bring the dead back to life.
Li Changsheng spent a whole spring and summer cutting down the old tree and wielded a million swords, but he still couldn't shake the old tree. Until the beginning of autumn, when the birds returned to their nests, a little bird ignored the light of his sword and landed on the tree.
The old tree finally moved.
The leaves swayed slightly, and an ancient will gradually awakened.
"Young man, what's your name?"
"The last name is Li, the first name is Changsheng, and the name is Wudao." Li Changsheng replied.
That ancient will was silent for a few breaths, and its voice was like an old man's, slow and dull.
"The name of immortality means the growth of all living beings, the life of heaven and earth, and the meaning of eternal existence. Yes, yes. I don't know how many capable and powerful people throughout the ages have only asked for the word "immortality."
"If you seek immortality, you will never succeed."
"What do you want again?"
"Seeking perfection." Li Changsheng replied, his tone calm and firm: "I don't know when this junior's life has been full of regrets."
"oh?"
The old tree swayed gently, and a gaze that was different from the naked eye fell, as if to see through the young man in front of him.
Rumble!
Suddenly there was some thunder in the sky, and a piece of tree bark that had been struck by a million swords collapsed.
This scene made Li Changsheng a little more confused in his eyes, but before he could ask, the irresistible and scrutinizing gaze disappeared.
The old tree spirit asked first: "You are already standing at the top of the world, how can you have any shortcomings?"
“Maybe it’s because you were pretentious when you were a mortal, but you ended up making your family uneasy. Maybe you thought you were on the path to spiritual cultivation, but you ended up falling into the quagmire again.”
Li Changsheng lowered his head slightly and looked at his hands covered with calluses and bloodstains. He wondered how many of the bloodstains were from his enemies, how many were from himself, and how many were from old friends.
"I wanted to save many people, but in the end I tried my best but couldn't seem to save even one."
The old tree became a little interested and said: "I understand what you are thinking, and the old man does have a way to bring the dead back to life. That is my fruit, it can extend the life of living beings for thousands of years."
"There are no restrictions, no shackles, no matter what kind of cultivation level."
"This is the fruit of longevity."
The tree trunk swayed slightly, and a green fruit appeared, containing the vitality of creation that conquered the world.
Li Changsheng subconsciously stretched out his hand, but the old tree did not resist, and even bent the trunk slightly to allow the other party to touch it better.
It has been extended for thousands of years, but it has not yet taken shape.
In their realm, many things need not be explained in words. Just by touching Li Changsheng, he understood that this fruit could not save He Kun, nor could it make up for his own shortcomings.
It wasn't that the old tree spirit was lying to him. The fruit had the power to change one's destiny, but it took many years to develop. This long period of time is not yet certain. The only thing that is certain is that Elder He cannot wait until that time.
Just like the old friend who couldn't wait for him to have the cultivation he has now.
The son wants to support him but his relatives are not there; he wants to protect him but his relatives are not there.
Therefore, he has many shortcomings.
The old tree spirit continued: "You can take it away, but the condition is that you tell me about the outside world. The old man will give the bird spirit fruit, and now it will make no difference to this descendant like you."
Li Changsheng nodded, and then asked: "Can I take it away in advance?"
"Of course you can, but I can't guarantee the effect."
The old tree swayed in the wind, and he became extremely interested in the young man in front of him.
One is the way of heaven, and the other is mortals.
He said that he had practiced cultivation from a mortal to where he is now, and Laoshu also saw Li Changsheng's "extraordinaryness".
It was so mediocre, compared to that woman, she was like mud on the ground.
The old tree has no body of flesh and blood, but many people have seen it, and they can naturally see that Li Changsheng's talent for refining qi is low, and his mortal body cannot be absorbed by the spiritual qi.
But he has come this far.
"When I woke up last time, I saw a woman with the same sword-mindedness as you. I also heard that the Heavenly Sword can only choose one master. Did you kill her?"
Li Changsheng shook his head at first, and then nodded without knowing why.
"It's a pity, she could have been a saint." Lao Shu suddenly realized that the reason for his comeback in such a short time was for the Sword Immortal.
Want to see this powerful person who appears to be somewhat special in the long history, what kind of style was she in her era, and what kind of story does she have?
Now it's not bad, here comes Li Changsheng.
"How did you get to this point in your mortal body?"
"I practiced qi and entered Taoism at the age of eighty, but my talent is stupid."
"How many?!"
A month later, Li Changsheng told the old tree spirit about the changing times outside, the mountains and rivers, and the changing dynasties. The wonderful content and the cookie-cutter process are something few have ever heard of.
The world is still the same world, but the people who tell him stories are not birds or beasts. Rather, he is a strong man who has been walking in the mortal world for thousands of years and has extremely rich experience.
Li Changsheng stood up, saluted, and said, "I have to go see an old friend off and say goodbye."
"Little friend, go slowly. Come back often when you have time." The old tree said his farewell cordially.
When I came, I was still a junior, and when I left, I was already a child.
Such a rapid relationship was not because Li Changsheng told the story well, but because the other party was an eighty-year-old Taoist with "stupid talent".
