Chapter 269 Long Time No See!

"Okay!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the "Sacred Tree" gave its answer, and then a branch stretched out, with a blue soul on the branch.

There is no doubt that this is also part of the "Sacred Tree's" calculation. It has lived for thousands of years and is based on a civilization. It is extremely intelligent and has long been extraordinary.

"..."

Looking at the appearance of this soul, Youfang also confirmed his guess, thinking that this guy really took great pains to make himself the "king" and was able to do this.

"Is it because he has entered my mind that he can see through me?" I have to admit that I was really controlled and couldn't find a reason to refuse.

In this case, Youfang no longer hesitated and directly accepted the soul of "King Nathan". Oh no, now it should be called the "old king".

As long as the soul is still there, he can use the power of the "Nine-tailed Fox Picture" to reshape its body. After the body dies, the "innate qi" in its body will be transferred to the soul, so there is no need to worry about resurrection.

After a careful inspection and confirmation that there was nothing wrong with the soul of the "old king", You Fang was relieved and nodded in response.

"Okay, then we have reached a deal. I agree to become the new king of 'Nathan', but I want to temporarily block the news and not announce it first."

In You Fang's view, although becoming the "King of Nathan" has great benefits for him, even countless, there is one thing he must consider, that is, the invasion from "Behemoth" in five or more than four years.

This matter is a disaster that the entire "Nathan" will suffer, and it must be faced no matter what. Since he has decided to be the "king", he naturally has to think carefully.

On the surface, the cause of all this seems to be that the "branches" of the "sacred tree" were broken and Elijah's betrayal allowed "Behemoth" to take advantage of the situation.

But in fact, all of this is just a pretext for "Behemoth". Even if there is no "branch being broken" and no betrayal by Elijah, all this will still happen, but for different reasons.

From the beginning, "Behemoth" has set its sights on "Nathan Island". They have long coveted the "Sacred Tree" in order to take it away and conduct further research.

Obviously, their "SP" series of medicines have reached a bottleneck. No matter how they optimize, it is difficult to develop a medicine that is both safe and can achieve the effect of "SP1". The magic of "Nathan" is obvious to all, so they have made up their minds.

This is the usual style of this group of Americans. First, they intervene strongly with a legitimate reason, and then wantonly obtain the benefits they want. To put it bluntly, they ultimately rely on their fists.

And since this is the case, they must first think of some back-up plans and make some preparations. In this case, it is not appropriate to disclose their identities. Only hiding in the dark is the best.

In short, Youfang is ready to give them a dark!

"You are the real 'king', different from all the 'kings' in the past. Everything is decided by you, including me." At this time, the "Sacred Tree" replied.

"As I said before, as long as you can guarantee the continuation and development of 'Nasen' and lead 'Nasen' to the right path, whatever you want is fine, and I will fully support you."

"Haha, that's the best."

You Fang nodded. Since that's the case, he has no problem. Then he looked at the "Sacred Tree": "Come on."

He opened his arms, ready to accept the power of the "King".

However, the imagined surge did not come. The "Sacred Tree" just stretched out its branches and gently touched his forehead to end the whole process. The golden light flashed in his forehead and soon disappeared.

But at this moment...

Wow——

You Fang suddenly felt a sense of "transparency", and his consciousness instantly extended, surrounding the entire island.

And unlike the "Bai Ze Guan Shu", this time he was not just a "spectator", but could sense everything on the island. Except for those who were highly skilled in cultivation and could block this perception, nothing could escape his eyes.

Not only that, when he moved his mind, the voices of all people also suddenly emerged, all drilled into his mind, forming a chaotic sound.

After a short period of adaptation, he quickly mastered this ability, able to separate all the sounds, and filter and extract them at will.

At this time...

"What if the power of 'Bai Ze Guan Shu' is added?" You Fang suddenly thought of a possibility and tried it.

The next second, the "Bai Ze" beast suddenly condensed, and his thoughts and perceptions also increased. Almost in the blink of an eye, those figures that were originally imperceptible were also seen by him.

"It really works!"

At this moment, You Fang only felt that he had merged with the entire "Nasen Island", even including all the islanders. As long as they were blessed by the "Sacred Tree", they were no different from a part of his body.

This feeling is extremely wonderful. If you use one word to describe it... it is "God"!

He also understood immediately that this was the vision of the "Sacred Tree" all along!

There is no doubt that after thousands of years or even longer, the "Sacred Tree" and "Nathan" have already merged together. The "Sacred Tree" is "Nathan", but at the same time it is an independent individual.

This also explains why the "Sacred Tree", as an existence higher than the entire "Nathan", can sacrifice itself for "Nathan". All of this is its hard work, just like its child, no matter what it does, it is worth it!

"It seems that you have understood the meaning of my existence."

At this moment, the voice of the "Sacred Tree" sounded in Youfang's mind, with relief and full of strong emotions.

Although it is just a tree, it is also born with divine powers. It has everything that humans have, but it is difficult to show it.

"I understand, I can understand."

Youfang nodded. From this moment on, he completely understood the "Sacred Tree", understood all its behaviors, and understood everything about it.

Only because at this moment, he also merged with the "Sacred Tree", sharing all perceptions, including its hidden emotions.

"Then now, you are the 'new king', go and accept the worship of your people, this is what you deserve." The next second, the tone of the "Sacred Tree" seemed to bring a smile.

Then, the golden light shone again, covering Youfang's vision. When the golden light converged, he returned to reality again.

"Welcome the new king!"

Instantly, the shouts of worship echoed in his ears, making him smile slightly.

...

...

At the same time.

In a cave on the island.

"This kid has become the 'new king'?" Gu Jiting had just walked into the cave when he felt something in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the "sacred tree".

"Well, I also felt it, the 'new king' was born." As a formal islander who has lived on this island for a long time, Ruan Feng naturally felt it.

Then...

"You... are you really thirty?"

Ruan Feng quickly retracted his gaze and looked at Gu Jiting again. He looked up and down for a while and found that it was indeed a familiar breath, and even the fluctuations of Qi were exactly the same.

"Haha, it's genuine."

Gu Jiting smiled softly, then opened his arms and gave Ruan Feng a long-lost hug.

"Brother Seventeen, it's been a long time since we last met!"

"Three, thirty..."

Feeling the breath so close, Ruan Feng finally confirmed it completely, so he raised his arms and hugged Gu Jiting, just like before.

The thirty-six brothers and sisters back then, some died, some escaped... Up to now, only a handful of them can be confirmed to be alive, and everyone hasn't seen each other for a long time.

"Thirty, how have you been doing in the past few decades? Have you been hiding?" Ruan Feng asked immediately after they separated.

"Well, I was surrounded by the Shuzimen led by Master Hu Tu, the head of the Shuzimen. In a hurry, I used the 'Daluo Dongguan'. Although I escaped from the predicament, I also fell into a greater predicament." Gu Jiting sighed and sat down against the stone wall.

"What, you used the 'Daluo Dongguan'?!"

"Didn't you say at the time..."

Hearing this, Ruan Feng couldn't help but be surprised.

"That's right. When I realized the 'Daluo Dongguan', I said that this technique is not perfect yet and there are still flaws in it. This is the root of my current predicament, and perhaps it is also due to fate."

As he said, Gu Jiting raised his hand and put it in front of Ruan Feng: "Brother Seventeen, look."

Wow——

The next second, as his mind moved, his palm suddenly twisted. Ruan Feng reached out to grab it, but found that there was a mass of nothingness there, without any substance at all!

"What you see now is just a false appearance that I temporarily consume my own Qi to maintain and stay in reality. The real me is still in the cracks of the world and there is no way to come back."

"This..."

"So that's it."

After being surprised, Ruan Feng quickly calmed down. When Gu Jiting told him the situation, he didn't quite believe it, but now it has become true.

"That's why you still look the same after so many years, because the real time can't affect you, and you are not in the passage of time, right?" He continued to analyze.

"According to what you said in the past, you have escaped from the 'real' Qi Bureau and jumped out of the Qi Bureau?"

"Yes, that's it. The problem is that after jumping out, I can no longer find any way to come back. I can only rely on my own connection with reality to temporarily condense the false." Gu Jiting nodded and replied.

"Although I will no longer be affected by time, it will not stop the flow of the innate Qi in my body. Now I am more than ninety years old. If I can't find a way to break through... that would be bad!"

Then, Gu Jiting changed the subject and looked at Ruan Feng and said:

"Okay, don't just talk about me. If I'm not mistaken, you should also be in trouble. The problem also comes from the method you realized at the beginning."

He narrowed his eyes and immediately saw through the situation in Ruan Feng's body.

"The 'Innate Qi' you replenished with your 'Six Treasury Immortal Thief' now seems to have a lot of impurities. It seems that you must absorb more pure 'Innate Qi' to make up for it, such as..."

"People!"

Before Gu Jiting finished speaking, Ruan Feng answered directly. He had nothing to hide in front of his brother, but he also showed shame.

"You know, I have actually been patient for a long time, but in the end I still succumbed to that terrible hunger, because it did not come from my six internal organs, but from my most fundamental 'Innate Qi'!"

"And the most terrifying thing is that during the short period of time after I ate the human being, I didn't feel any fear or guilt in my heart, but only a huge sense of satisfaction... and endless aftertaste."

"delicious!"

"This was the only thought that could come to my mind at that time, and the next thing was... I still want it!"

Having said this, a look of pain appeared on Ruan Feng's face, and an indescribable regret surged like a tide, but to no avail.

"But this kind of thing is like that big smoke. Once you touch it once, you can never go back. No matter how much I restrain myself, once the hunger reaches a certain level, I will be unable to control myself again... Sigh !”

"..."

Seeing his appearance, Gu Jiting couldn't help but stepped forward and patted his shoulder, and then sighed: "Haha, it seems... we all have our own difficulties."

Then, he went on to talk about the conditions of the other brothers and sisters he had collected over the years: "Actually, it's not just us. The eight of us were in similar situations back then. We both had a relatively easy time."

"this……"

"Oh, that's really the case."

When talking about this, both of them couldn't help but recall the past. How high-spirited their brothers and sisters, including themselves, were back then, each with their own pursuits.

And until now, they don't know whether the current situation is considered "pursuit of realization". Ruan Feng does live a long life, Gu Jiating can indeed travel between heaven and earth, and there are others...

However, everything ended in tragedy after all.

"By the way, what about fourth brother? Do you have any news about fourth brother!"

At this time, Ruan Feng suddenly remembered Wu Gensheng and immediately asked Gu Jiating. He knew very well that with his fourth brother's ability, he would definitely survive.

"Um……"

"The only thing I can be sure of now is that he is indeed not dead, but just hiding in an unknown place."

At the mention of Wugensheng, Gu Jiting visibly paused, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Thirty, what's your reaction?"

Ruan Feng noticed something was wrong and quickly asked, and Gu Jiating immediately responded.

"Fourth brother, he..."

"well!"

"Now I have some suspicions. The friendship we formed in Tongtian Valley, including the eight of us realizing the 'Eight Wonders', as well as the subsequent leaks of the list and the pursuit in the world, were all set up by the fourth brother..."

"We have all been tricked by him!"

"Huh? What did you say?!"

Ruan Feng was immediately surprised!
