Chapter 1,445 Jianmu’s Growth

Before Jiang Bai could continue, the old monk said that he was to blame for this matter. If he hadn't let him in because he was a Westerner, he would have let him in.

If I hadn't felt that Daleiyin Temple had always been a subordinate of the Western Sect, forget it before. Now that someone from the Western Sect has arrived, they would naturally have to hand over everything. If they had not fully fulfilled their previous promises to Jiang Bai, they would not have led the wolf into the house now. matter.

Not only do I feel that Jiang Bai should not thank him, but he should thank Jiang Bai and so on.

If Ye Ming Jialan succeeds this time, the old monk will never have peace of mind in his life.

Please also ask Jiang Bai not to be polite to him.

After hearing this, Jiang Bai responded with a smile, knowing that the old monk was not lying and that his words were sincere.

I didn't blame the old monk, because it was reasonable for others to do this. Thinking about it from his perspective, if Jiang Bai was in the old monk's position, he might not do this.

It may not even be stopped later.

Therefore, the old monk had no fault in this matter.

The two exchanged pleasantries, left the crowd, and walked into the house. Then the old monk said to Jiang Bai: "Donor, do you remember the small tree you left before?"

"Jianmu?"

Of course Jiang Bai remembers this thing. This may be the legendary immortal tree, which is extremely amazing.

Fortunately Ao Wuchang didn't know about it at the beginning, otherwise this guy might have rushed over immediately after he fell out with him.

According to what Jiang Bai later learned from the system, the longevity tree is something above the holy medicine and the elixir of life. It is called the medicine of longevity.

The elixir of death can make people live one more life, and the emperor can live an extra 180,000 years if he takes it.

As for the elixir of life, although it does not provide immortality, its effect is more than twice that of the elixir of life. It is the most precious medicine.

Of course, the longevity tree is not a longevity medicine and cannot be eaten, but it is still very effective.

One can imagine the preciousness of building wood. It was once the World Tree, supporting the existence of the entire heaven. The huge world relied on this thing for support.

Jiang Bai even knew from the system that this thing was once the bridge between heaven and earth. In a distant era, if other dimensions wanted to come to the heaven, they did not need to be very strong at all.

You only need to climb Jianmu to reach the heaven, which is the world where Jiang Bai and the others are now.

This is why the world has such diverse populations, diverse cultures, diverse nationalities and diverse races.

In fact, Jiang Bai had doubts before about why this small planet has so many races, so many languages, and so many cultures.

Of course, geography is a factor. Many cultures have inexplicable languages ​​and there are too many of them. Later I found out that this may be related to the gathering of countless people from all over the world in ancient times.

To put it bluntly, it has nothing to do with Jianmu.

Although this thing is just a seedling, it is extremely extraordinary. If it grows up in the future, it will be extremely terrifying.

Because in ancient times, this thing had life and was the ancestor of thousands of trees. In the words of the system, the building wood of the past was comparable to the emperor.

No, it is more terrifying than the Great Emperor.

But later it was damaged for some reason, and I don’t know who did it. For some reason, Jiang Bai wanted to ask, but the system offered a price that left Jiang Bai speechless, and Jiang Bai gave up at that time.

Now the frowning old monk suddenly said this to himself, leaving Jiang Bai stunned.

Subconsciously I asked, "Why, what's wrong with that thing?"

At the beginning, there was a corpse under the Eight Treasures Merit Pool with golden blood flowing, and the tree took root on it, absorbing nutrients and growing continuously. Jiang Bai saw that it would be useful and did not take it away, but stayed in the Great Leiyin Temple.

Now what this old monk means is that something unexpected has happened?

Could it be that that bastard Jialan from before did something to his precious Jianmu?

Thinking of this, Jiang Bai's face didn't look very good.

However, the suspected culprit has been killed by himself, and there is no need for others to pursue it, and they can't blame others. Therefore, although Jiang Bai is not in a good mood, he still restrains his thoughts to avoid misunderstanding by others.

"No, it's just, it's just... I think this thing can't stay here any longer."

The frowning old monk saw Jiang Bai's thoughts and shook his head quickly. Then he looked at Jiang Bai with a somewhat embarrassed expression and said this.

This made Jiang Bai stunned for a moment. Before Jiang Bai could reply, the other party continued to add: "It's better to go and take a look. You will know after taking a look."

After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Bai to answer, he took the lead and walked forward. Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment and followed the old monk with a frown.

Passing through the corridor of the secret room, I walked downstairs and walked several floors, but there was no one around. After a while, I arrived at the former location of the Eight Treasures Merit Pool.

Several old monks who were originally guarding here have disappeared. They must have gone up to the Golden Summit before, and Jiang Bai didn't pay attention.

After all, it was understandable that they went out during a life-or-death situation.

Jiang Bai walked over with a nervous mood. When he saw Jianmu here, Jiang Bai was stunned.

What was once a young sapling has grown into a towering tree, dozens of meters high.

The tree trunk is as thick as three people hugging each other, and it is emitting an emerald green light, which is particularly conspicuous on the platform halfway up the mountain.

Under the rhizome, the originally incorruptible flesh body, flowing with golden blood energy, had completely rotted away, leaving only a trace of white bones. It was obviously completely consumed by the building wood, which made Jiang Bai stunned at the time.

Jiang Bai later studied the golden corpse. As his strength continued to improve, Jiang Bai could conclude that it was at least the remains of a Buddha.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such magical effects after death.

To put it bluntly, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool is exactly the same as the place where the blood of the true gods in the West gathers. It’s just that their god king found the treasure medicine and buried everything in it, but this one didn’t, so there was such an Eight Treasures Pool. A pool of merit to help future generations evolve.

Jiang Bai also benefited from it at the beginning.

Looking back, I didn't feel it at the time, but now I feel the horror of the corpse.

But the corpse was now completely digested by Jianmu.

With a wry smile, the frowning old monk next to him whispered to Jiang Bai: "I should have informed you earlier. Last week, the last essence of the Buddha's golden body was absorbed by this tree."

"I didn't pay attention to it at first, but in the past two days I have discovered that the peaks around the Golden Summit are growing taller, and the flowers and trees on them are decreasing. The roots of this tree actually pierced the entire Eight Treasures Merit Pool and began to spread into the mountains, absorbing Essence of life.”

"In the past two days, the flowers, plants and trees around the Great Leiyin Temple have shown signs of withering, and we can't extract energy from the air. I wanted to tell you right away, but something happened with Ye Mingjialan, so I just If I can delay it, I’ll tell you now.”

"I think this tree is not suitable to grow here. If possible..."
