However.
Just as it grew into a towering tree and was about to develop spiritual intelligence.
Thick dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky along with frightening destructive lightning bolts.
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and hit the tree, scorching a large part of the tree's branches and breaking them off.
However, as soon as the branch was broken, a green energy aura was emitted from the tree. As the energy lingered around it, the broken branch began to rapidly regrow.
However.
Just as the new branches grew out, another bolt of silver lightning fell from the sky and hit the tree heavily again.
The green energy rose again and the broken branches and leaves of the tree grew again.
Then, another bolt of lightning fell.
And so on.
This tree had actually been bombarded by lightning nine times in a row.
Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, the information in his mind turned into a picture, which still made Fang Qiu feel extremely shocked.
What era was that?
Why could even lightning be so terrifying?
Could it be.
Was there really such a thing as crossing a tribulation in this world?
Was this tree managing the Thunder Tribulation that belonged to it?
When Fang Qiu was extremely shocked.
The ninth bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket bombarded down and spread like a spider web in an instant, completely wrapping the whole tree.
On the tree, the branches and leaves were constantly charred and broken by the lightning.
In this case.
The tree could only hide underground, relying on its roots that occupied countless disciples to survive. Because it didn't completely cross the tribulation, its spiritual intelligence was still not fully developed.
That was to say.
In fact, it could be considered a failure.
Because it escaped in the process of crossing the tribulation, so it didn't get everything it deserved.
The scene of the tree crossing the tribulation disappeared.
Fang Qiu looked at the huge tree in front of him again.
At this time.
Another green energy that was not threatening flowed in front of him and drilled into Fang Qiu's brain.
This time.
It was not a picture, but a somewhat old voice.
"You've almost sucked all the nature energy out of my body. If this continues, I'll die soon. I know you're a good person, and I can feel your kindness, so I hope you can be merciful."
Hearing this voice.
Fang Qiu was shocked at once.
What shocked him was not that the ancient tree could actually speak, but that he had been absorbing the natural energy of this ancient tree all this time, and had almost killed this ancient tree that had cultivated for millions of years.
This is really, just the sound of it is scary.
However …
While they were still in shock.
A picture suddenly flashed in Fang Qiu's mind. It was a picture of an ancient figure sitting in the center of the Seven Star Lamp but eventually dying.
"Thousands of years ago, a man named Zhuge Kongming also set up a formation here to prolong his life. Why did the Seven Star Lamp he set up go out?"
Fang Qiu asked the ancient tree.
A stream of green energy rushed into Fang Qiu's mind.
"It's not man-made."
"I remember the person you mentioned. I've talked to him. His name is Kong Ming."
"He was already incurable at that time because he forcibly went against the will of heaven. Although he was strong enough to see through the will of heaven, he couldn't deal with the incurable disease, so he could only rely on absorbing the power of nature to prolong his life. Because of his serious illness, he couldn't absorb a large amount of the power of nature on his own, so he also came here to prolong his life."
"After talking to me, he couldn't bear to exchange my life for his, so he finally gave up."
"It's a pity that I was still very weak at that time and couldn't record the picture at that time. But you should know that he failed at the last moment. If he wanted to, he had succeeded."
Hearing the explanation of this old voice.
Fang Qiu suddenly understood.
Indeed.
Zhuge Kongming was a person who could see through the will of heaven and even use his actions to reverse and change the will of heaven.
However, such a person who dared to go against the will of heaven and change his fate and dared to disturb the will of heaven still couldn't bear to exchange the life of this ancient tree for his own.
Thinking about it, it was because of his kindness.
But there must be another reason.
According to the ancient mythology of Huaxia, killing was about cause and effect.
This ancient tree had cultivated for a million years. What did that mean?
If a person lived a hundred years in each life, he would have to live ten thousand lives!
That was to say.
Once this cause and effect was planted.
It would probably take ten thousand lives to pay it off.
Since he could see through the will of heaven, Zhuge Kongming was naturally not stupid, so he chose to give up at that time.
Thinking of this.
Fang Qiu couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Fortunately, this ancient tree appeared in time. If he had absorbed all the Qi of nature on this ancient tree without knowing it at all and caused it to die in his hands, such a terrible cause and effect would fall on him.
Just when Fang Qiu was secretly rejoicing.
On the ancient tree, another faint green energy rushed into Fang Qiu's mind.
"In the past million years, I have experienced such things several times, but now that it has come to this, I still hope to continue to live and continue to witness the changes of this world, so I hope you can let me go."
The old voice came again.
Hearing that.
Fang Qiu looked at the ancient tree in front of him.
He saw a shadow of an old man with a cane coming out of the ancient tree in front of him. At this time, the old man held the cane in one hand and then bowed deeply to Fang Qiu.
"Alas."
Fang Qiu sighed, then hurriedly bowed to the old man and said, "I didn't mean to offend you. I've disturbed you these days. I'll leave now."
"Thank you."
The old man's voice came.
The next moment.
Fang Qiu, who hadn't opened his eyes for seven days and six nights in a row, suddenly opened them.
Feeling the Qi of nature lingering around him, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing bitterly.
Unexpectedly.
All his hard work over the past few days had been for naught.
He understood and admired Kongming's choice that year. Since the fate had been decided, it couldn't be violated. Why hurt an ancient tree because of himself?
"Whoosh —"
He waved his right hand.
A mass of internal Qi burst out of Fang Qiu's palm, instantly shattering the seven lamps surrounding him in the shape of the Big Dipper.
With the shattering of the seven lamps.
The Qi of nature that fell from the sky and was drawn up from the ground was instantly cut off and dissipated.
The magnetic field condensed by the seven lamps also exploded at this moment.
The Qi of nature that had been pulled by the seven lamps hit Fang Qiu hard.
"Puff —"
Under the impact of the Qi of nature, Fang Qiu opened his mouth and immediately spat out a large mouthful of blood.
At this time.
All the strange phenomena had passed.
Therefore, the brothers surrounding them had already removed their tents long ago.
However.
In order to ensure that John Doe could be safe until the last step, no one dared to look at him. Instead, they had been vigilant around, for fear that there would be more terrible strange phenomena in the last few hours.
Therefore, when Fang Qiu woke up, no one noticed it.
It wasn't until the seven lamps were broken that everyone turned their heads together, just to see John Doe open his mouth wide and spit out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment.
All the people in the surroundings immediately rushed over in horror.
"What's going on?"
"What's wrong?"
Several brothers asked in panic.
But as soon as the question came out, they immediately saw the Sword Addict and He Gaoming make a gesture to everyone to be silent.
Then they looked at John Doe.
At this time, he had closed his eyes and began to sit cross-legged to recover.
Seeing this, the brothers didn't dare to say more and could only stand aside and wait.
After a long time.
Fang Qiu slowly opened his eyes.
Although he was hurt by the Qi of nature, because Fang Qiu's own injury had almost recovered, he was not injured. He could have continued to recover and break through, but because of the last step, he finally stopped at the Fulfilment of Three Flower Realm. There was still a gap between him and the Earth Flower Realm.
"Brother John Doe, what's going on?"
"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as Fang Qiu opened his eyes, the Sword Addict and He Gaoming immediately asked.
"I'm fine."
Fang Qiu stood up, shook his head, and said with a smile, "These days, thank you for helping me day and night. Thank you."
Hearing this.
Although everyone knew that something must have happened to John Doe, since John Doe didn't say, they tacitly didn't ask more.
"It's good that you're fine."
He Gaoming breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brothers, this experience is over. Hurry up and clean up the rubbish on the scene. We should leave."
Everyone looked at Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu nodded.
With John Doe's permission, the brothers immediately began to clean up.
After cleaning up.
Everyone was ready to leave.
But at this moment, there was suddenly a faint green energy rising from the ground where Fang Qiu had been sitting cross-legged and quietly penetrated into Fang Qiu's body.
The next moment.
In Fang Qiu's mind, the old voice sounded again.
"I feel that you have a lot of strange energy. There is a lot of such energy in this world. I have sensed many places with such energy aura, but they all disappeared later."
Hearing this voice.
Fang Qiu was confused.
There was a lot of strange energy in his body?
What strange energy?
Except for the Qi of Heaven and Earth and Nature Qi, there was no other energy?
He was full of doubts.
Fang Qiu quickly spread his Divine Consciousness into the ground and found a root of the ancient tree. Like seeping into a human body, he quietly seeped into the root of the tree. He didn't search too much and directly asked, "What is the strange energy in my body that you said?"
"It's some very strange energy. I have never sensed this strange energy between heaven and earth. It seems that it will only appear in some unique plants."
The ancient tree responded.
Hearing this, Fang Qiu's face changed and he was immediately shocked.
He knew.
The ancient tree was talking about Heaven and Earth Treasures!
He had indeed eaten a lot of Heaven and Earth Treasures. These Heaven and Earth Treasures seemed to have been digested by him, but in fact, the energy of each Heaven and Earth Treasure remained in his body, either to strengthen his body or to strengthen his meridians. These energies were permanently left in the place where they were strengthened.
This ancient tree could actually sense Heaven and Earth Treasures?
Fang Qiu was extremely surprised.
"The things you are talking about should be called Heaven and Earth Treasures, so can you sense the location of the most powerful strange energy?"
