The Elder Nomadic God Tree was truly kind and honest.
This was the most harmless life form Yang Kai had encountered since arriving on Shadowed Scar Star. Not only did it give the Fairy Fluorescent Dragon a drop of very precious resin, but it also gave Zhu Minglang a special flower seed.
As long as the outer skin of this flower seed was peeled off and placed in a windy place, it would give birth to a dragonfly-winged Wind Sprite. This Wind Sprite would then lead Zhu Minglang to the ancient Nomadic Giant Tree Ancestor!
Now that he had a clear direction, Zhu Minglang was overjoyed.
The wind blew and peeled off the outer skin of the seed, giving birth to a dragonfly-like Tree Sprite. It only needed some rain to fly. Zhu Minglang sprinkled the dew crystal water on the Tree Sprite, which immediately regained its vitality and flapped its wings to continue flying towards the east.
Zhu Minglang mounted the Xuan Long Sword and followed. Although the Tree Sprite was not very fast, it was still much faster than Zhu Minglang aimlessly wandering through the grey land.
…..
Once again, Zhu Minglang flew into a vast land. The soil here was even darker, almost black, and there was not a single blade of grass growing here. But soon, Zhu Minglang saw the same Nomadic Giant Tree Ancestor. They were in the process of moving from a dry and hard soil to this black soil that had been moistened by the rain a few days ago.
Zhu Minglang found the oldest Elder Tree.
Unfortunately, this Elder Tree was still not a million-year-old ancestor.
The good news was that this even older Elder Tree also gave Zhu Minglang a flower seed and told Zhu Minglang that by following the seed, he would be able to find its ancestor.
Whether its ancestor was the same Ancestor Tree Zhu Minglang was looking for was hard to say, but it was definitely much older.
For humans, having four generations under one roof was already a blessing, but trees could have dozens of generations under one roof.
"Luckily, these Giant Nomadic Trees don't only plant seeds once every few decades. Otherwise, even if we could search for them generation after generation, we would be old and weary after hundreds of thousands of years," Mr. Koi said.
Time was long, and even if one became an Immortal God, compared to some of the ancient creatures on Shadowed Scar Star, it was just a flash in the pan. Some creatures might not have the ability to destroy the world, but their long lifespan was the eternal principle that allowed them to stand tall in this world.
Different types of flowers, different types of nomadic giant trees. This grayish-black land was much vaster than Zhu Minglang had imagined. It even surpassed all the forests that they had crossed before.
When Zhu Minglang found the sixth group of nomadic giant trees, he found that this group of trees had withered greatly. Compared to the spectacular scene he had seen before, this group of trees was like a village in distress. Even the Elder Tree had withered, leaving behind a huge wreckage that stood alone like a small mountain. It was unknown how many years had passed.
Zhu Minglang's heart sank. If this generation's Elder Tree was gone, wouldn't his next clue to find an even older ancestor be lost?
Fortunately, this worry was unnecessary. Zhu Minglang saw the flower seed sprite stop for a short while on the wreckage of this generation's Elder Tree before flying off in another direction …
Not long after, Zhu Minglang found another group of nomadic giant trees. Even the youngest of these giant trees was not inferior to the Elder Tree that had planted the seeds for Zhu Minglang, and their leader had roots all over the ground. He was old but strong, and the vitality radiating from his body was like that of the mythical Immortal Tree Ancestor. This greatly increased Zhu Minglang's confidence. It seemed that he was getting closer and closer to the million-year-old Elder Tree Ancestor!
While Zhu Minglang was taking a short rest in this nomadic giant tree, he was surprised to find that similar flower seed sprites were flying over from different places one after another. These flower seed sprites were like children visiting their relatives after a New Year's celebration. They surrounded the nomadic giant tree and made cheerful noises. After eating and drinking their fill, they would go on to the next house!
When Zhu Minglang saw this magical scene, he could not help but ask Mr. Koi, "What are they trying to convey?"
"I don't think these flower seed sprites are used to transmit information to their ancestors, but to inform them that they are safe, similar to a flower tree messenger. The withered Elder Tree would no longer be able to give birth to this flower tree seed, while the ones that were still alive would probably give birth to this flower tree seed every time they migrated. They would then fly towards their ancestors and use this method to inform their ancestors whether they were still in good health or not. Therefore, we can use these flower seed sprites to find their oldest ancestors, "Mr. Koi said.
"So that's how it is. That is to say, in the end, all the Elder Tree's Seed Sprites will gather together after greeting all the Ancestor Trees. The place where they gather together will be their ancestors!" Zhu Minglang said.
"That's right, that's right. The Immortal Tree Ancestor we're on right now is already very old, so we can see so many Flower Tree Spirits gathering here. In other words, there will be more and more of these Flower Tree Spirits leading the way for us …" Mister Koi said.
Zhu Minglang immediately understood.
No matter how they migrate, these Nomadic Giant Trees will use this method to transmit information. They may seem to be scattered all over Shadowed Scar Star, but they are actually closely connected, like a huge ancient family …
"Moreover, they never migrate to forests that are full of life. Instead, they choose to live in this kind of empty soil. After they migrate, the empty soil will be filled with new life and new vegetation will be born. In my opinion, Shadowed Scar Star's earliest days were just like this grayish-black soil, lifeless. It was because of these Nomadic Giant Trees that the rainforests and forests of Shadowed Scar Star were constantly transformed, constantly reclaimed, and constantly moved, allowing the ancient creatures to survive in such an environment. They can be considered the Spirit Creation Gods of Shadowed Scar Star," Mr. Koi said.
Zhu Minglang could not help but sigh when he heard this. Perhaps most people in Shenjiang were like this in the beginning. There was an Ancestral Spirit Creation God, and most people actually worshipped and respected this Ancestral Spirit Creation God, not those so-called Immortal Sects or Divine Palaces. As long as people from Immortal Sects or Divine Palaces saw something that could be plundered or used to ascend to Immortality, they would not hesitate to take it for themselves, even if it meant destroying it.
Starting from this Immortal Tree Ancestor, Zhu Minglang had even more flower seed sprites around him.
They were like a group of children on a spring outing, cheerful, happy, and full of curiosity about everything in the world, but they also carried out their mission and would not fly around randomly.
