After sending Lei Dazhuang home, Tang Shidao immediately transformed into an owl and flew to the sanatorium to investigate the situation.
What was surprising was that the sanatorium seemed to have been aware of this long ago. These people did not hide their actions too much. Instead, it felt like an academic investigation. Tang Shidao could not sense any Mana from these devices. Xiao Jin also said that it was different from before and that something was missing.
Tang Shidao did not suspect that Xiao Jin was lying.
It was a Sorcerer's pet.
It either did not say anything, or it would not lie if it did.
Sensing that these people were not a threat to the sanatorium, Tang Shidao did not pursue the matter further.
The next day.
As usual, they all gathered at the Beauty Body Gym. Tang Shidao asked Zhang Mingbo, "Brother Zhang, who are those people outside the sanatorium?"
Zhang Mingbo was slightly surprised. "Student Tang, you know?"
"Yes. My grandfather is in the sanatorium. I can't just ignore the abnormal situation. "
"This … I'll have to ask Qin Hu and see what he has to say."
Hearing the conversation, Lei Dazhuang and The White Beauty also walked over.
They still did not know what happened in the sanatorium. They only knew that it was a very important place and that no one would dare to disturb it.
Half an hour later.
Qin Hu rushed over.
Because they owed Tang Shidao a favor, the mysterious group was quite concerned about Tang Shidao's affairs. After arriving, Qin Hu found a secret meeting room and called Lei Dazhuang and The White Beauty. He then laid out three sets of materials. "Let's keep it simple. Since you are all related to the Liu Sect, I won't hide it from you. You've improved a lot these days. It's time for you to know some secrets. "
Lei Dazhuang complained, "Brother Hu, you're joking. I haven't won even once in these days of sparring."
Qin Hu smiled. "Student Lei, you have to know that there are only six body-refining rings. Now, all the people in the country who are qualified to use them temporarily are all top elites. If you were an ordinary person, you wouldn't even last ten seconds. Being able to spar with them proves that you're much stronger than ordinary people. "
"So that's how it is. No wonder." Lei Dazhuang showed his arm muscles to Tang Shidao, indicating that he was also a master.
Tang Shidao had never practiced here before, so no one knew what level he was at. With that kind of knife-throwing technique, it was difficult for others to pay attention to his fists. In the eyes of the mysterious group, Tang Shidao, the third disciple of the Liu Family Sect, was a master of throwing knives, Lei Dazhuang was a monster of brute force, and The White Beauty … well, as long as she didn't drag them down, that would be fine.
She was very diligent, but her standard was still at the level of an ordinary female soldier.
"Let's get down to business," Tang Shidao said.
"Okay, Student Tang, this matter is also related to the Liu Clan." Qin Hu distributed the information and said, "As you know, there are some strange things in this world, such as werewolves. Because of classmate Tang's reminder, we knew that it was something similar to a body-refining ring. Technically, we still don't know how it was done, but its nature has been confirmed. "
"Okay." Lei Dazhuang nodded. After hearing about werewolves, he felt that it was normal.
"Since there are things that can turn into werewolves, then it's not strange that there are other mysterious things. What I'm going to talk about next is a … World Tree. "
"Huh?" The White Beauty and Lei Dazhuang were shocked.
Is this a game term?
Are you kidding?
Tang Shidao opened the information book. There was a blurry picture of a giant tree on it. It was a black and white picture, so it wasn't very clear.
Qin Hu pressed his hand and continued, "It's true. It's really called the World Tree. Of course, it was named by the Western Federation. If it were us, it would be different. Let's not talk about it. This World Tree grows under a small neutral country in the Western Federation. Maybe all the big countries in the Western Federation want to control it, but they can't get it, so they just let a small neutral country guard it. "
Tang Shidao listened quietly, wondering how far the "truth" was from the secret of the sorcerers.
Qin Hu continued, "It's very tall. It's no less than a hundred meters tall. The roots on the ground cover the entire underground cave. It's hundreds of meters wide. "
Tang Shidao's expression didn't change.
But he was laughing on the inside.
This is called a World Tree? You're kidding me. The World Tree recorded on the Web of Sorcerers was only this big for a single leaf. In the Web of Sorcerers, even the smallest World Tree was rooted on a planet. The canopy of the tree could cover half of the planet.
The size of your World Tree … It's really not as big as a sprout of the Web of Sorcerers' World Tree.
Xiao Jin also glanced sideways.
It wasn't as cunning as humans. In terms of knowledge, Tang Shidao was thousands of miles away from it.
"The World Tree is red. Its branches, flowers, and leaves are all blood-red." At Qin Hu's words, Xiao Jin immediately pecked Tang Shidao's shoulder. Tang Shidao thought about the words "Dragon Blood Tree" and then listened again. "It never bears fruit. It only blossoms. It doesn't need sunlight. It can survive on a small amount of water. Even if the water dries up, it won't die. "
"What does this have to do with us? It's a special plant, right? "Lei Dazhuang couldn't help but ask.
"The World Tree can't be transplanted. If the branches and leaves leave the main body, they will quickly dry up. There's only one in the world. Botanists can't transplant a second one. " Qin Hu talked to himself and then told the truth. "If it didn't have any special effects, it wouldn't be worth mentioning. At most, it would be a special plant. The problem is that it can strengthen the body. "
"Huh?" Lei Dazhuang exclaimed again. "With what? Did he eat flowers or … leaves? It doesn't have any fruits, right? "
"It doesn't have any fruits." Qin Hu nodded. "Strengthening the body isn't about eating flowers or leaves. It's very simple. As long as you quietly stay around the Dragon Blood Tree and slowly train yourself, you can become stronger little by little. You can even surpass the level of a normal person. "
"Isn't that equivalent to an extremely large body-training ring?" Lei Dazhuang was truly shocked.
Tang Shidao was very calm.
Xiao Jin also had a look that said, "You're ugly, but you're dreaming."
"No, how is that possible? If it had the effect of a body-training ring, the Western Federation would already have superhumans everywhere. In fact, the strengthening of the World Tree is very, very slow. It's far less effective than the body-training ring. The advantage is that that place can accommodate many people, and the strengthening is almost limitless. It can break through the limits of human beings and still slowly improve. "Qin Hu said as he handed over a stack of photos.
In these photos.
Under a huge, tall tree, a large group of people was sitting cross-legged. Occasionally, a few of them would walk with their arms outstretched.
At first glance.
It was like a natural religious gathering.
At a closer look.
Most of these people were celebrities. Martial arts celebrities. Very few of the people in the photos were from Zulong State. Most of them were boxing stars or martial arts experts from the Western Federation. Most of them were strong foreign men in military uniforms. Surprisingly, there were also some movie stars famous for their action movies.
Tang Shidao was very interested.
However, it wasn't because of the "strengthening" of the body, but because it was a Dragon Blood Tree.
In terms of strengthening the body, the Dragon Blood Tree couldn't even compare to a finished alchemy potion. At best, it was just a kind of alchemy material. If it didn't grow on Earth Emperor Planet, Tang Shidao wouldn't even look at it. In some worlds of the Sorcerer Web, the Dragon Blood Tree was as common as an apple tree.
Born on Earth Emperor Planet.
Without a doubt, this must be one of the legacies of the Snake Sorcerer.
"This World Tree is one of the non-public world treasures. Only a few people know about it. Even if someone deliberately exposed it in the media, the Western Federation would quickly remove the news and prevent it from spreading. Don't naively believe that the reporters can expose anything. You should know that the media is only controlled by a few people. "
"I know, Brother Hu. Please continue." Lei Dazhuang nodded.
"Every country has a secret restriction on the World Tree. They can only use it after paying a certain price. Obviously, the Western Federation doesn't welcome people from Zulong State. Therefore, the least number of people here are Grandmasters of Combat from Zulong State. The Western Federation also received news about the appearance of the Body-Refining Ring. They know about the magical effects of the Body-Refining Ring, so they want to make a big deal. "Qin Hu paused.
Tang Tudao was expressionless.
Lei Dazhuang, on the other hand, suddenly stood up.
"Don't worry." Qin Hu waved his hand. "We can't agree. The Body-Refining Ring belongs to the old man from Liuyuan Temple. We're just borrowing it. We can't exchange it for any benefits. The higher-ups don't want to be too harsh. They have a lot of business dealings, so they reluctantly agreed to let them send someone to use it. Student Tang, you mean … "
"It's not mine. Uncle Liu doesn't allow it to leave Zulong State. Just remember that." Tang Shidao deliberately pretended that he couldn't make the decision.
"Yes, of course it won't leave Zulong State."
"I have a question." Lei Dazhuang suddenly raised his hand.
"Speak." Qin Hu gestured.
"Which is better, the Body-Refining Ring or the World Tree?" Lei Dazhuang didn't have many brains. Please don't make it too complicated.
"If the effect is the power, then the Body-Refining Ring is a sniper rifle, and the World Tree is a thousand pistols."
"Brother Hu, you mean that the Body-Refining Ring is super effective, but the World Tree is used by more people?"
"Yes. If the World Tree is better than us, they won't come to us for help. We've offered a 'limited time' condition, and they've already given up some space. From next year onwards, the number of people cultivating at the World Tree has more than doubled. You can go if you're interested, but it takes a long time to cultivate next to the World Tree. It won't be effective unless you stay for a few years. "
"The effect is dozens of miles away from the Body-Refining Ring." Lei Dazhuang didn't want to do it.
"Think about the difference between a sniper rifle and a pistol." Qin Hu expected this reaction.
"I want to take a look," Tang Shidao said.
"Taoist …"
"Fatty, I'm just curious. If you really want to cultivate, my master has better things. Since we have nothing to do, it's good to take a look and broaden our horizons. Do you want one, Fatty, Beauty? "Tang Shidao naturally knew that the Dragon Blood Tree was useless. The Body-Refining Ring was a finished product, and the Dragon Blood Tree was a material. They weren't on the same level at all.
"I see, it's good to take a look." Lei Dazhuang agreed.
"Mm," The White Beauty replied simply.
They understood the function of the World Tree. It was similar to a health drink, so they didn't find it strange.
Tang Shidao was interested in its origin.
Also.
Find out if the previous Snake Master had left anything else behind.
For example, something like the Werewolf Ring couldn't have appeared unless the Snake Master deliberately left it behind, just like how the Blood Earl brought the Vampire Ring to the Interstellar Era. If they could find the Snake Master's legacy, it would be of great help in collecting its relics.
It still had a Mage's secret room on Earth Emperor Planet, and they even had the map.
The more they understood the Snake Master, the easier it would be to decipher its legacy.
Tang Shidao didn't expect this secret room to be like the Immortal Imperial Dragon, leaving behind a shocking legacy. This kind of recovery was more to remove the traces of the Mage. Tang Shidao didn't want to spread magic on Earth Emperor Planet. It was better for this place to develop towards the path of science and technology.
"I can help you with the paperwork and find someone to accompany you. But it's very likely that someone will provoke you. You have to be careful. "
"Taoist …" Lei Dazhuang turned his head. It was better to listen to smart people at critical moments.
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of anyone when it comes to fists." Tang Shidao smiled, as if he was responsible for their safety.
Qin Hu fell into deep thought as he listened.
Tang Shidao ignored him. He also believed that Qin Hu was hiding something. At least, Qin Hu didn't mention anything about the 'magical' things in Zulong Country.
He didn't believe it.
The Snake Master left behind the Dragon Blood Tree in the West, but nothing in Zulong Country.
These little things.
He still had to slowly uncover the truth.
Even he couldn't predict what new things he would find in the Dragon Blood Tree in the West.
