Ning Daoqi was still worried that the location Lu Li mentioned was too vague. 'Under the big tree downstream' was not a clear direction. If there was any delay, the Demon Kirin inside Lu Li's body would be born, and it would be a disaster for the world.
However, as he drove the boat, he soon understood why Lu Li only said 'under the big tree'. This big tree was too obvious, and it was impossible to ignore it. From the small boat, he could see the canopy-like shade of the trees in the distance. In the curtain of night, it was like a resplendent silk curtain. Countless flowing brilliant veins supported the extremely beautiful canopy, like clouds or smoke.
This was a sacred tree that should not have appeared in this world. Ning Daoqi took a boat to the bottom of the tree. Its canopy covered a huge area with a radius of one kilometer, and even spanned across the two sides of the Yangtze River. It covered a part of the starry sky above the heads of the passing boats. The veins of the branches were flowing with radiant energy, and the leaves were hanging like stars, dangerous and beautiful.
In Ning Daoqi's senses, this huge tree was flowing with natural energy that was as vigorous and thick as the veins of the earth. The ground under his feet, the canopy above his head, and the aerial roots hanging down from the sky, were all filled with a vivid and dangerous aura.
Before Ning Daoqi got off the boat and went ashore, the aerial root floating above the river started to move like a snake and interweaved into a soft nest in front of Ning Daoqi. Several finger-thick roots even wrapped around Lu Li's body. Ning Daoqi did not know if he should stop it or wait and see. He saw the aerial root lift Lu Li's body and put her on the soft nest.
A few crystal-like blood vessels came out from between Lu Li's eyebrows and intertwined with the golden veins of the sacred tree's aerial root. Suddenly, her body relaxed, and she completely lost her life.
Ning Daoqi turned pale with fright. He didn't know if he should cut off this strange meridian or not. Then, he saw another aerial root in front of him. It also had the same golden meridian and was floating in front of his chest in a friendly manner. Ning Daoqi suddenly understood. He carefully extended his finger over. The golden meridian fused into his fingertip and connected with his nerves.
"Hello, I'm Eva." Ning Daoqi felt that someone was greeting him.
"I'm Ning Daoqi. I was asked to send him here to find a person under the tree. I wonder where he is now?" Ning Daoqi was a little confused. He felt that everything that had happened today was beyond the understanding of an old man who had spent most of his life in the mortal world. However, he deduced that this mysterious consciousness should be related to the person under the tree.
"Are you looking for Dr. Chen Ang? He's currently operating on someone else, so it might not be convenient for him to see you! "
Ning Daoqi did not know what the operation was, but he could understand the latter part. He asked, "But this Taoist brother is in danger. He said that only the man under the tree can save him …"
"There should be a problem with the Qilin's demonic consciousness in his body. I can help. I'm currently awakening his consciousness and sharing the pressure from the Qilin's demonic consciousness …" As he spoke, Ning Daoqi felt a sleeping consciousness, as well as a black thought that was sealed by that consciousness.
This was the closest Ning Daoqi had come into contact with the Qilin Demon. Although it was not very active, Ning Daoqi could still feel the instinctive fear that humans had when facing their natural enemy. He could also feel the primitive bestiality in its consciousness, which was filled with cruelty, brutality, and savagery. It was as if he could see the cruelty and selfishness of the beginning of life.
"The Qilin Demon is very scary. It is the incarnation of the most primitive nature of all intelligent creatures. It condenses the most basic desire of life to survive, and at the same time, it extends this obsession to the negative side. Because it comes from all kinds of beasts, it contains the traces of evolution of all life, and at the same time, it represents endless evolution, so it is called the Qilin.
"The Qilin symbolizes the great power and potential that keeps evolving and absorbing the advantages of endless life. It is the king of all beasts, but at the same time, because of its extreme selfishness, it wants to devour and possess everything, and it hates everything except itself. This selfishness that comes from the origin of its genes is also called a demon!
"The Qilin Demon devours and possesses everything, becoming the only path of evolution and obsession!
"My master created it, but he was also surprised by its greed and selfishness, so he sealed it in the body of Lu Li, who was the source of the sample. He hoped to get some interesting results," Eva slowly awakened Lu Li's consciousness and explained to them at the same time.
"He didn't tell me any of this!" Lu Li, who had just woken up, said angrily, "He only told me that the enhanced power was very powerful, but he didn't tell me that it would be this dangerous. He told me that it was safe!"
"Master doesn't need to tell you this. No matter how dangerous the Qilin Demon is to you, or even to me, it is just a harmless test subject to master. No one can call themselves a demon in front of master. To the supreme master, all dangerous demons are just his slaves. He is the demon of all demons, our master! "Eva revealed coldly.
"Primordial Sky Demon, you tricked me!" Lu Li was almost going crazy.
"Primordial Sky Demon?" Ning Daoqi's body trembled slightly. He suppressed the shock in his heart and asked, "Is the Primordial Sky Demon the one who planted the Qilin Demon in Lu Li's body? Lu Li asked me to bring you to him … That's right! Other than the Primordial Sky Demon who created such a terrifying existence, who else can help Lu Li suppress the growth of the Qilin Demon? "
"Then, Eva, who are you?" Ning Daoqi turned around and asked.
"You are the consciousness of the demon plant?" Lu Li vaguely guessed something.
Eva replied, "Yes. In order to create a source of soldiers for their race in this world, and to defeat Nuwa and the rest of the dead, my master specially inspired my self-awareness and named me 'Divine Tree Eva'. I have the great mission of infecting all plant life and unifying the consciousness of all living beings on a planet."
"Don't tell me you have weird neural vines growing out of your body like mine!" Lu Li exclaimed in horror, "I saw it just now. Crystalline neural tissue is emerging from my blood …"
"Those are not your nerves. Your nerves are in your body. Those are the nerves of the Qilin Demon. The Qilin Demon is the master of the blood in your body. I just borrowed its consciousness to pull you into this world. Moreover, neural vines are too primitive. Although master gave me this ability, it is only a substitute in the early stages! "Eva replied.
"So, how are you going to carry out the order that Chen Ang gave you?" Lu Li asked curiously.
