After eliminating the Ghost Face Tribe, Han Lang returned to the base to continue his cultivation and learning. The laws of space and string theory were so magical, Han Lang did not want to waste any time that could be used to improve himself.
Compared to the past, Xiao Bao came to the base more often and stayed longer. Not only would he go to the Blue Lake, but he would also go to the main base of Han Lang and the others. After getting familiar with everyone, no one stopped him. On the contrary, everyone welcomed Xiao Bao. After all, this little octopus was very obedient, sensible, and very likable.
As for the Tree God Tribe, Han Lang did not send anyone to protect them, because in this tribal territory where danger lurked everywhere, relying on others to protect them would not last long.
It was better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish. The first teacher that Han Lang sent to the Tree God Tribe was Zong Wudao. He was known for being strict and obsessed with martial arts. When Han Lang first learned martial arts from him, he had already experienced his strictness and harshness. He believed that under the guidance of Zong Wudao, the people of the Tree God Tribe would have a qualitative leap in a short period of time.
Of course, this was still far from achieving self-protection. After all, the Tree God Tribe was relatively small. After the massacre of the Ghost Face Tribe, there were only about a thousand adult warriors left. The entire tribe added up to only about eight thousand people, and it was already the smallest force in the tribal area.
However, they finally had a good start. After experiencing a tragedy, the warriors and children of the Tree God Tribe were very enthusiastic about learning and cultivating.
The second prescription that Han Lang gave to the Tree God Tribe was called Corner Overtaking.
Wu Yun's genetically modified beasts, Black Night's drugs, Feng Taiji's offensive plants, and so on were all handed over to the Tree God Tribe to learn and master.
Feng Taiji had to be mentioned here. The Bloodthirsty Sky Vine and Heavenly King Vine that Han Lang liked to use were all created by him. He was an expert in the study of alien plants in the Forgotten Realm.
The Tree God Tribe was named after trees and lived on plants. They were all geniuses in terms of how to control combat plants. Feng Taiji did not spend too much effort to teach a group of good disciples.
If there was another war in the future, the weaker Tree God Tribe could rely on their ability to use alien plants to increase their combat power. Back then, when Han Lang was not as powerful as he was today, he was still able to survive the calamity. A large part of the reason was that he knew many methods that his enemies did not understand.
As the saying went, it was never a burden to have more skills. It was unlikely that the warriors of the Tree God Tribe would become outstanding warriors in a short period of time, so it was better for them to learn some tricks and tricks in addition to cultivation.
To put it bluntly, Han Lang's theory of taking a curve to overtake a car was actually walking on an evil path. He had to learn proper martial arts, but even more so, he had to learn the evil way of killing people. This was what he did.
After a few days, Feng Taiji suddenly came to find Han Lang in high spirits.
"What? Is there a new masterpiece that you want me to try out? "Han Lang asked expectantly.
Feng Taiji waved his hand and said, "It's not that easy. I used 435 years to cultivate the Bloodthirsty Sky Vine, and 970 years to cultivate the Heavenly Sky Vine. It's still too early to think of a higher level alien plant than the Heavenly Sky Vine, unless you are willing to learn botany from me personally. I heard from Sanchi that you learn everything very quickly."
Han Lang waved his hand and said, "Spare me. Recently, 9527 has been forcing me to learn the Law of Space and String Theory. I don't have time to study plants. Even among my three teachers, I only learned more from Daoless and Wuyun. I'm not very proficient in Night Cripple's poison. There's a limit to a person's energy. If I learn one, I won't be able to learn the other."
"Tell me, why are you so excited to find me? If it's not because of the alien plant, then what is it?"
Feng Taiji said, "Because the Tree God Tribe might have a treasure. I want to explore it, but they won't let me go no matter what. You have a good relationship with them, so you have to show up for this matter."
"Treasure? What treasure? "Han Lang asked curiously.
Feng Taiji said, "Isn't there a big tree in the Tree God Tribe? You should know that. "
Han Lang nodded and said, "Yes, that tree is their tribe's totem. It's close to 100,000 meters tall. It's really incredible. I don't know how long it has existed."
Feng Taiji said, "When I was teaching the Tree God Tribe how to use the Heavenly King Vine, I accidentally heard that there's a tree hole under the tree. It's so deep that I can't see the bottom, and it's filled with all kinds of strange plants.
So I planned to go down and take a look. If there are any rare plants, I can take them and study them. But the people of the Tree God Tribe are really old-fashioned. They won't let me go in no matter what, so I can only come to find you. "
Han Lang laughed when he heard that. "I already said that tree is their totem, their god. How could they let you go in so easily? But then again, how confident are you that there's the plant you need in this tree hole? "
Feng Taiji said, "There must be something strange about it. I've never seen such a big tree. The trunk is hollow, and there's even a tree hole? You have to know that the more precious a plant is, the higher the requirements for the environment. The most strange plants grow in environments that ordinary people can't even imagine.
As long as you let me go, I have a 90% chance of finding a rare plant. I might even be able to research a plant that's even stronger than the Heavenly King Vine. "
A plant that's stronger than the Heavenly King Vine?
Han Lang rubbed his chin and thought about it. He was a little tempted. Although Han Lang's current level was high enough, and the Heavenly King Vine wasn't as helpful to him as before, if he could really research a third generation of plants, that would be a different story.
Moreover, if there was a third generation of plants, not only would it be beneficial to Han Lang, it would also be beneficial to everyone.
Han Lang nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go talk to Wuyun later, but I don't dare to guarantee that it will succeed. After all, that's their totem, we have to be reasonable. We can't do whatever we want just because we saved them. The Tree God Tribe is also free."
"As long as you do your best, it's fine. Follow me."
"I didn't say that I'm going today."
"I have to go, I'm dying of anxiety. You have to give me a definite answer as to whether it will succeed or not. "
"Alright, alright, I'll go. Don't pull me."
Feng Taiji was an impatient person. Without saying anything else, he dragged Han Lang to the Tree God Tribe to talk to Yunsan.
Yunsan was naturally very polite to Han Lang, but when Han Lang said that he wanted to explore the tree hole, Yunsan immediately hesitated.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but when my grandfather Yunyi was the tribe leader, he swore that no one is allowed to enter the tree hole. The reason is that my grandfather once brought people to explore the tree hole, but in the end, he was the only one who returned."
"You might not know this, but this tree hole is very strange. Entering it is like entering another world. No communication device can send messages. Once you enter, no one can guarantee your safety," Yunsan explained.
Han Lang asked curiously, "What did your grandfather encounter down there? To the extent that he suffered losses? "
Yunsan shook his head and said, "I asked him, but he refused to say no matter what. He only warned us that no one is allowed to enter, or else we'll get into big trouble."
Han Lang thought about it and said, "Actually, I understand your difficulties, but you have to know that things are different now. Not only is the Tree God Tribe in danger, but even we are in danger. Didn't you say that outsiders can't interfere in matters between tribes? We destroyed the Ghost Face Tribe, which means that we've become the enemy of all tribes?"
"We're in a difficult situation now. We're trying our best to develop the third generation of alien plants, but we haven't succeeded yet because we lack some rare special plant genes. If we can find the genes we need in the tree hole, we'll be able to get twice the result with half the effort. Your people and my people can rely on these advanced alien plants to protect ourselves."
Sometimes, Han Lang could be very cunning. When he complained to Yunsan, his meaning was very clear. Look, in order to save you, we created a large wave of enemies. Now, we're going to develop a new type of weapon, and if you don't help us, you'll be too disloyal.
Who was Yunsan?
A typical good person!
A few days ago, when the Ghost Face Tribe was at their doorstep, Yunsan was still begging for mercy for the enemy.
Now that Han Lang mentioned his difficulties, Yunsan couldn't sit still. He was even helping the enemy, so he couldn't mistreat Han Lang, who was his benefactor.
"Are you really in urgent need of some special plant genes?"
"Yes!"
"You can't find them anywhere else?"
"We can't."
Phew!
Yunsan let out a long breath and said, "Alright then. Although grandpa's promise is important, the problem at hand can't be ignored. It's said that there are many magical plants in the tree hole. I hope you can find what you need."
Feng Taiji was so happy that he almost jumped up. He thanked Yunsan repeatedly.
Under his lead, Han Lang and Feng Taiji arrived in front of the tree.
Yunsan pointed at the miraculous tree and said, "This tree is very old, and we call it the Divine Tree. The tree hole can only be entered through the hollow trunk. Come with me."
The trunk of the Divine Tree was hollow. Yunsan's clansmen had already built residences, storage rooms, classrooms for children, and so on in the trunk.
It was easy to reach the bottom of the tree by following the stairs in the trunk. This was also the meeting hall of the Tree Gods. It was very spacious, and there was an altar in the center for worshipping the ancestors.
"The place you want to go has to be entered from the bottom of the altar. Go all the way down to the root of the tree.
According to my grandpa, it's a magical garden. It's huge and wonderful. If the plant you're looking for really exists, you should be able to find it there, "Yunsan explained.
The altar was moved away very quickly, revealing a spiral staircase leading downwards. Because the Tree Gods had forbidden their clansmen from entering the underground garden, this path had not been used for thousands of years. The wooden staircase was already somewhat corroded. People walking on it would tremble and creak.
After a few hundred steps, there was a platform. It was dark all around, and the bottom could not be seen.
Fortunately, there were many tree vines hanging down. Following the vines, one could enter the legendary magical garden that was located at the root of the Divine Tree.
Naturally, Han Lang and Feng Taiji did not need to climb any tree vines. They simply jumped down and used an air cushioning device that could be installed on their armor to reduce the speed of their fall. Feng Taiji also took out a handheld mini radar. Unfortunately, as Yunsan had said, the unstable magnetic field pervaded the place, and the mini radar could not be used at all.
However, Han Lang and Feng Taiji, who were skilled and bold, did not care. They continued to fall at a speed that was close to freefall. Yunsan, the platform, and the entrance to the altar were already out of sight. The long fall even made Han Lang feel a little tired. He estimated that the depth of the tree hole was probably more than a hundred thousand meters. It was even higher than the height of the Divine Tree itself.
When he thought about it, it made sense. Usually, the roots of a tree far exceeded the trunk. After all, the Divine Tree was still a tree, and it could not go against the laws of nature.
"Look, there's light down there!" Feng Taiji said as he pointed at his feet.
Han Lang focused his eyes and looked down. It was as if he was looking at the night sky on Earth from space. There were dots of light everywhere, connecting into one. The area was probably more than ten thousand square kilometers. If this was the underground garden, it really did look like a miracle.
Han Lang and Feng Taiji were both interested. After careful observation, they found that the light was a type of lantern grass.
Unlike the small lantern grass that grew on Earth, the lantern grass in the underground garden was seven or eight meters tall, and the light was brighter.
It seemed that someone had deliberately placed the lantern grass throughout the underground garden, and people would not feel dark in it.
Pa!
When they were close to the ground, the aerodynamic system began to work. Han Lang and Feng Taiji landed gently on the green stone floor of the garden.
"This place is man-made?" Han Lang frowned slightly and muttered to himself.
"A man-made garden that is more than ten thousand square kilometers! Look, that's a butterfly orchid. I have never seen a butterfly orchid of such quality in my life! "Feng Taiji shouted excitedly.
