The annual rings on Su Yu's essence wood increased explosively!
Sixty-six annual rings, reaching a total of seventy, quickly catching up with the jade-clothed man.
The two were tied again. The difference was that the growth of Su Yu's essence wood's annual rings was several times faster than the jade-clothed man's.
Su Yu's essence wood seemed to be greatly stimulated, resonating with the remnant memories in the essence wood.
Deputy Region Master Xiao's facial muscles stiffened, and even his eyes looked dull.
After a while, he recovered and said coldly, "He is cheating!"
"Humph!" A cold snort fell into Deputy Region Master Xiao's ears. His whole body shook as if he had been electrocuted. Blood spilled from the corners of his mouth as he looked at Mo Tianxuan.
Mo Tianxuan sneered. "Just because you have a mouth doesn't mean you can talk nonsense."
It was obvious that the Heavenly Knife Region had cheated first, and when they found out things were beyond their expectations, they accused the Red Blood Palace of cheating.
Mo Tianxuan, who had been suppressing her anger for a long time, could not be polite.
After being taught a lesson by Mo Tianxuan, Deputy Region Master Xiao kept his mouth shut and focused his eyes on Su Yu and the jade-clothed man again. His relaxed expression disappeared, replaced by anxiety.
An accident had occurred in the gambling game that was almost certain to be won!
The jade-clothed man split a bit of his attention to check on Su Yu's movements and was shocked. "Who are you?"
Only someone who had a close relationship with the Mu race could master the entire set of Mu words and resonate with the essence wood. How did Su Yu do it?
Su Yu did not respond, but resonated silently.
After a while, the annual rings on Su Yu's essence wood reached ninety.
The jade-clothed man only had eighty-five.
The speed of the annual rings on both sides gradually slowed down and came to a stop.
The challenge was about to come to an end, and the winner was obvious.
"It's not over yet!" The jade-clothed man snorted coldly, and the many jade pieces on the surface of his body suddenly burst into bright light. The gradually stagnating annual rings suddenly increased from eighty-five to ninety-eight in the blink of an eye, and it was still growing.
On the other hand, Su Yu seemed to be exhausted and gradually stopped.
Seeing this, Deputy Region Master Xiao relaxed a lot and breathed a sigh of relief.
The faces of the Red Blood Palace became gloomy again.
"What happened? Why did the essence wood in his hand suddenly increase?" All the elders were shocked.
Palace Mistress Mo narrowed her eyes. The situation was getting worse and worse.
Deputy Region Master Xiao smiled faintly and said, "It's impossible for you to defeat him."
Mo Tianxuan thought for a moment and snorted softly. She waved her sleeves and released a strong force.
The jade clothes on the jade-clothed man's body were blown off silently, revealing his true body.
All the elders looked over and were shocked.
"He's not human!"
The person before him had the appearance of a human, but his facial features were stiff and lifeless. His face was filled with wooden patterns.
How was this a human? It was clearly the Wood Tribe!
Moreover, from the wood attribute aura it emitted, it was of the same origin as essence wood!
It was very likely that this Wood Clan member had a close connection with essence wood, so they shared a lot of memories.
"Is the Heavenly Knife Region toying with us?" Mo Tianxuan's face was gloomy.
What kind of joke was this? Who could cause the essence wood's memories to resonate better than a member of the Wood Race, and a member of the Wood Race who had the same origin as essence wood?
From the very beginning, there was no chance of winning this duel.
No wonder he had to wear a mysterious jade robe to conceal his aura!
Who wouldn't be enraged after understanding all this?
Deputy Region Master Xiao's face changed and stiffened for a moment. He forced himself to calm down and said, "Palace Master Mo, before the duel began, there was no rule that forbade members of the same race as essence wood from participating. How could the Heavenly Knife Region be toying with you? I hope Palace Master Mo won't talk nonsense and bring shame to the reputation of the Heavenly Knife Region."
This sentence was a quote from Mo Tianxuan, and it was full of sarcasm.
Mo Tianxuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but she forced herself to hold it in. Indeed, they had been careless. They hadn't thought that the Heavenly Knife Region would find a Wood Clan member.
The Wood Clan's presence in Jiuzhou was limited to the Desolate Evil Jungle.
However, the Wood Clan in the Desolate Evil Jungle had never stepped out for thousands of years, and it was impossible for them to join in the disputes of Jiuzhou's human race.
Due to their carelessness, the Heavenly Knife Region had found a mysterious Wood Clan member.
Mo Tianxuan looked at Su Yu and sighed silently. Su Yu had tried his best. In the end, he used a mysterious method to increase the number of annual rings and exposed the special identity of the jade-clothed man.
No matter who won or lost, he couldn't be blamed.
The rest of the elders looked at Su Yu with understanding.
In this world, who could compete with the Wood Clan's culture?
No, to be precise, Su Yu's mastery of the Wood Clan's language was slightly better than this Wood Clan member's.
It was just that the other party had cheated and limited the way of the duel.
Su Yu was defeated, but not humiliated.
It was a pity that the favorable situation had deteriorated again.
Su Yu stared at the lineup of the jade-clothed man with suspicion.
This person wasn't an ancient bronze tree man. Could there be other kinds of Wood Clan people in the Jiuzhou continent? Where did they come from?
But there was no time to think about it now.
The Wood Clan used essence wood from their own race to compete with Su Yu, an outsider, to see who could resonate more. Even with the two great memories, it was far from enough to compete.
"I can only try the Book of First Heavens. If I can comprehend it further and condense the most primitive character, I might have a chance of winning," Su Yu thought to himself.
That character had produced millions of Wood Clan languages, created the Wood Clan culture, and gave birth to the Wood Clan civilization.
According to the characteristics of the Wood Clan, this inheritance was completed through the bloodline.
No memory could be compared to the inherited memory.
The memory of the jade-clothed man was at most related to the former owner of the essence wood, but it couldn't be compared to the inherited memory.
As long as he could comprehend it, even if it was just a trace, he could trigger the inherited memory in the bloodline of the essence wood.
With a thought, Su Yu calmed down and began to recall the Book of First Heavens that he had read.
Between heaven and earth, birth, aging, sickness, and death, reincarnation and destiny, all kinds of profound meanings of heaven and earth slid through the depths of Su Yu's mind like flowing water.
The profound meaning of time, space, and soul. When the three kinds of profound meanings appeared, they resonated with Su Yu, and he felt a sense of intimacy.
It was as if there were three kinds of weak Heavenly Law profound meanings existing in Su Yu's body.
Gradually, Su Yu had an illusion that he was a part of the shapeless Heavenly Law. The feeling of integration was like when a baby was born.
In the eyes of outsiders, Su Yu closed his eyes and fell into meditation.
But in Su Yu's eyes, he was one with heaven and earth.
"Eh?" All of a sudden, Mo Tianxuan seemed to sense something and stared at Su Yu.
From the outside, Su Yu didn't seem to have changed, but she could tell that Su Yu had undergone an indescribable transformation from the inside out.
It was as if Su Yu's body had integrated with something.
For a long time, Su Yu was still immersed in the Heavenly Law profound meaning of the Book of First Heavens.
During this period of time, the Mu people had resonated with a total of 130 annual rings.
The gap between them had widened, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was impossible to catch up.
"Palace Master Mo, can you announce the end of the competition?" Deputy Region Master Xiao said with a smile. He heaved a long sigh of relief and glanced at Su Yu, whose annual rings had stopped growing for a long time.
He had thought that Su Yu was just a human who was proficient in Mu words. He didn't expect that he had other means to trigger resonance.
Fortunately, he had been prepared. Otherwise, the Heavenly Knife Region would lose 100 million and become a laughing stock.
Mo Tianxuan stared at Su Yu and shook her head. "Both sides have stopped. Su Yu is still trying. The competition isn't over yet."
Deputy Region Master Xiao looked at Su Yu and shrugged indifferently. What he meant was, was there any point in continuing?
After such a long time, if Su Yu really had a way, he would have triggered resonance with the essence wood long ago.
Right at that moment, Su Yu suddenly opened his eyes. There was a ripple in his black and white eyes.
Coincidentally, Mo Tianxuan's eyes met with this pair of eyes.
In an instant, Mo Tianxuan's body shook violently. In those eyes, Mo Tianxuan seemed to see a galaxy of the universe swirling in Su Yu's eyes.
Many mysterious profoundness filled his eyes.
From those eyes, Mo Tianxuan vaguely touched upon a whole new world.
However, this sense of touch quickly disappeared as Su Yu's eyes returned to normal.
At that moment, Mo Tianxuan couldn't recall the mysterious world she had just felt. It was as if some invisible force was keeping her out of this world.
This feeling of confusion filled Mo Tianxuan with surprise and doubt.
Staring at Su Yu, Mo Tianxuan's eyes were filled with curiosity.
But soon, her attention was quickly drawn away.
Swish!
The essence wood in front of Su Yu, whose annual rings had stopped growing for a long time, suddenly began to tremble!
Like a big fish that had come back to life, it shook violently and leaped from the ground into the air as if it had become a living creature.
Mo Tianxuan and the jade-clothed man of the Mu clan were shocked by such a peculiar scene. "What have you done?"
At that moment, the essence wood was not only throbbing violently, but drops of crystal-clear liquid emerged from within the essence wood. It contained an extremely rich breath of life. Taking a breath of it was refreshing, and one's lifespan was slightly increased.
Gongsun Wuxie's nose twitched as she said in surprise, "It's the Fountain of Life!"
Only the Divine Master of the Mu clan and above could produce the spiritual liquid, which was the life essence of the Mu clan.
This item could only be produced by the Mu clan willingly.
It could not be obtained by external force.
The Mu clan's pupils shrank. What had happened? The essence wood could even produce the Fountain of Life on its own.
Then, a scene that shocked both the Mu clan and me happened.
The annual rings of the essence wood began to grow again.
However, it wasn't growing one by one, but ten by ten.
From ninety just now, it quickly grew to a hundred, and it quickly caught up with the jade-clothed man.
The jade-clothed man's face changed drastically. His palm that had left the essence wood quickly attached itself to it, and it began to resonate again.
His stiff face was anthropomorphic, revealing a panicked expression.
However, he had used up most of the resonance memory, and the growth of the annual rings was very slow.
After three breaths, Su Yu easily overtook him.
After ten breaths, when Su Yu had reached a hundred and fifty annual rings, the Mu clan only had a hundred and forty, and the rate of growth was almost stagnant.
After another ten breaths.
Su Yu had reached a hundred and sixty annual rings, but the Mu clan had completely stagnated.
The competition had come to an end.
"What did you do?" The Mu clan's man stared at Su Yu, unable to believe the essence wood in Su Yu's palm. It was no longer a piece of essence wood, but a strange object that was glowing all over, surging with the Fountain of Life.
In this piece of essence wood, the Mu clan's man could even feel a breath of their race's bloodline that was rooted in them.
"The memory of the bloodline inheritance?" The Mu clan's pupils shrank as he said in shock.
Su Yu opened his eyes slowly, but did not stop immediately. He only withdrew his palm when the annual rings of the essence wood could no longer grow.
Patter!
The essence wood fell silently, and Su Yu grasped it in his palm.
Su Yu did not leave a single drop of the surging Fountain of Life. He removed all of it and placed it in a jade bottle.
The essence wood had the soul energy of an All Creations when it was alive. Although the Fountain of Life was far less precious than the Yinmu, it was still a rare spiritual object in the world. Every drop could prolong one's life by dozens of years.
There were at least twenty or thirty drops in the entire jade bottle, which was extremely valuable.
Any drop could be exchanged for a million crystals.
Su Yu nodded as he put it away. The attempt was indeed worth it.
After comprehending the Book of First Heavens, the ten thousand most primitive words in the world gradually took shape in Su Yu's mind.
The million Mu clan words that he had mastered were reduced to half a million.
They were gradually flowing back to the most primitive Mu words, as if they were returning to the most primitive Mu words.
It was this returning that triggered the resonance of the memory of the essence wood's bloodline inheritance, and even the Fountain of Life overflowed on its own just now.
"I'm asking you a question. What did you do?" The Mu clan's man stared at Su Yu and questioned him. There was an inexplicable surprise in his tone.
Su Yu glanced at him calmly. "Do I have to answer just because you ask?"
Su Yu withdrew his gaze and said, "Palace Master Mo, the competition is over. Palace Master Mo, please make a decision as soon as possible."
The reminder caused Palace Master Mo and the other elders to wake up from their daze.
The elders still had blank looks on their faces, and they didn't even have time to show their joy.
What was supposed to be a simple competition had been full of twists and turns. In the end, Su Yu had used his mysterious trump card and crushed the Mu clan's man, who couldn't possibly win. It made them feel like they were in a dream.
Palace Master Mo's cold face showed a look of approval. "Su Yu, well done. You have done me a great service!"
She was in a good mood, and even Su Yu seemed more pleasing to the eye.
"Deputy Region Master Xiao, hand over the crystals and the promised cultivation techniques to me for inspection. After that, you can leave. I won't be seeing you out."
Deputy Region Master Xiao's face was as gloomy as the dark clouds in the sky. It looked like water was about to drip out.
He had been defeated! It was an unbelievable defeat!
A human could resonate with the essence wood even more than the Mu clan.
He couldn't accept it no matter what.
However, the competition was under the watchful eyes of everyone. There was no possibility of cheating.
On the contrary, if they insisted on cheating, they would be more suspicious.
His heart was heavy. When he returned to the Heavenly Knife Region, he would definitely anger the Region Master.
Not to mention losing a hundred million crystals, the influence of Tianya City would be completely wiped out. More importantly, he would be humiliated.
Not only had he failed to humiliate them, but he had been humiliated instead.
Not only the Blessed and Heavenly Lands, but the other regions of the Central Prefecture would also mock him.
Gritting his teeth secretly, Deputy Region Master Xiao took out a space ring and took the jade piece containing the cultivation techniques from the Mu clan's hand. He handed it to Mo Tianxuan with an ugly look.
Mo Tianxuan glanced at it to confirm the number of crystals and the authenticity of the cultivation techniques. She nodded slightly. "Not bad. You can leave now. If you want to stay for a few more days, the Red Blood Palace will treat you with courtesy. If you want to leave, we won't hold you back."
How could Deputy Region Master Xiao still have the mood to stay? He cupped his fists. "Farewell!"
