Chapter 297: Golden Ancient Tree (Single Chapter)

Deep in the Xingdou Great Forest, the ancient forbidden area

In the quiet woods, Qiu'er secretly glanced at Huo Yuhao who was sitting on the lawn next to her. When she saw him turn his head, she immediately avoided her gaze and quickly shrank back in fear.

"What's wrong?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"Nothing... nothing." Qiu'er was a little nervous and her heart was pounding.

We hadn't seen each other for more than half a year. I missed him a little at first, but when I really saw him, I felt a little nervous.

“Your cultivation has improved a lot. You must have worked very hard during this period, right?” Huo Yuhao said with a smile.

"Ah? Uh-huh." Qiu'er felt a little at a loss for what to do. She lowered her head slightly and played with the hem of her skirt in her hands.

The Red King, who was resting not far away, saw this scene and quietly moved away from this "place of trouble".

……

The jungle not far away.

Bingdi and Xuedi sat side by side on the trunk of the rotten tree, enjoying the breeze and sunshine, looking at the two people over there who were quiet like a young couple.

"Just let him go like that?" Bingdi muttered.

She felt a little unfair for Xue Di. What was going on? How could Xue'er be allowed to suffer such an injustice?

Some images were reflected in Xue Di's eyes. She shook her head slightly but did not explain anything.

……

The other side of the forest.

Zi Ling was jumping on the lawn, catching butterflies, and the red ribbon tied to her soft hair was shaking as she jumped;

The Evil Emperor stood guard nearby and occasionally paid attention to the situation on the master's side.

At this time, Di Tian had a dark face and turned away.

He had previously sensed the breath of Big Eyeball approaching the Star Forest, which woke him up from his light sleep.

I originally thought that Huo Yuhao had some problems and came to seek help.

Considering his master’s instructions, he still paid more attention to Huo Yuhao’s affairs.

So you came all the way here just to see the auspicious beast? I really don't know what to say.

The King of Ten Thousand Demons looked at Di Tian's back as he turned and left, then looked at Brigitte.

Should I go back to sleep then?

……

"By the way, there is something about Sister Yin." Qiu'er said softly.

Huo Yuhao looked at Qiu'er, waiting for what was to come.

Qiu'er seemed to have noticed something strange and quickly added: "I didn't sneak out, nor did I... get close to them. It was Sister Yin who came to find me." Her tone sounded a little nervous, as if she was afraid that Huo Yuhao would misunderstand something.

When Huo Yuhao heard this explanation, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable smile in his heart.

He remembered the instructions he gave Qiu'er before he left, but he didn't expect that she had always kept it in mind.

At that time, he asked Qiu'er to stay away from those guys in Xinghu. After all, the soul beasts there were all love-brained and were willing to be sacrificed.

The main reason for letting Qiu'er have less contact with them is that I am worried that Qiu'er will be led astray by them.

Especially Xiao Wu, who sneaked into the human world with Ah Yin to wander around. She was simply an expert in courting death.

"What happened to Ah Yin?" Huo Yuhao asked.

Could it be that the reborn hundred thousand year old blue silver grass has caused some trouble again?

"She said that she had been dreaming frequently recently about a big tree. It was golden in color and had its roots in the center of a very large lake. The big golden tree was calling her and asked her to bring someone to that world." Qiu'er frowned and recounted the story seriously.

After hearing this, Huo Yuhao was stunned.

An ancient golden tree growing in the center of the lake?!

He was very familiar with the ancient golden tree, this...

“What else did she say?” Huo Yuhao asked impatiently, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

Qiu Er shook her head and said helplessly, "I'm not sure either. She seemed very confused, as if she didn't understand the dream. She just said it might be related to you."

She also found it very strange. How could Sister Yin's strange dream be related to Yuhao?

Huo Yuhao frowned and fell into deep thought.

He whispered softly and repeated the key words: "Take someone to that world..."

His eyes became brighter and brighter, even somewhat captivating.

The golden ancient tree represents the consciousness of nature in the Douluo plane.

Why did it suddenly appear in Yin's dream and lead her to that unknown world?

He recalled the special connection he once had with the ancient golden tree and the mission he shouldered.

Perhaps this is really a kind of guidance, a call from the Douluo plane.

-

Late at night, ancient forbidden area.

Qiu'er was sleeping lightly at this time, and someone next to her was gently pulling her sleeve.

The noise woke her up from her sleep. She opened her eyes and saw Huo Yuhao standing in front of her.

He said, "Would you like to go for a walk with me?"

"Now?" Qiu'er was a little worried.

Looking around, it was quiet and everyone seemed to be still asleep.

"Yes." Huo Yuhao nodded seriously.

"Then, do I need to tell King Chi?" Qiu'er looked around in search.

Huo Yuhao shook his head decisively, "No, let's go quietly."

"I have a special spiritual realm that can perfectly conceal my presence. We can sneak out quietly at night and come back at dawn. No one will find us."

Huo Yuhao stretched out his hand towards her and said, "Follow me."

Qiu'er was a little moved and their eyes met.

At that moment, she somehow took his hand.

Huo Yuhao smiled brightly, and then a hazy silver wave appeared between his brows, covering the two figures.

The two of them were covered in silver moonlight, blending with the night, and quietly disappeared into the darkness.

After they left.

The Evil Emperor stretched out his tentacles and scratched his head quietly.

Zi Ling was sleeping soundly at this time, her ears trembling slightly, and she silently said in her heart, you can't see me, you can't see me.

The Red King was lying down and taking a nap not far away.

Seeing the two figures going away, he quietly opened his eyes a little and took a peek, cursing in his heart, this guy is so bad at concealing his breath!

Xue Di stood up from the black ice jade couch, looked at the dark forest, and felt a little insomniac.

-

At this time, Qiu'er was following Huo Yuhao towards the outside of the ancient restricted area.

Her heart was pounding.

She had never experienced this kind of secret escape before, so she couldn't help feeling nervous.

Little did she know that the so-called "sneaking away" actually did not hide it from anyone's eyes.

Huo Yuhao's talk of "covering up" and "sneaking away" was just a trick to deceive her.

He really could effectively isolate the aura, but it was useless in the situation just now.

As for why?

He came out to accompany Qiu'er to relax and have some fun, and to go out for some adventure, not to be sneaky or secretive.

Although he did not discuss this matter with Xue Di, before he left, the silver fluctuations as bright as the moon were not a cover-up of any aura, but a "spotlight".

——Qiu'er and I are going out for a walk and will be back in the morning.

……

The hazy light and shadow, the dream world, everything seems so mysterious and unreal.

At this time, Ayin was lying quietly by the lake, as if she had been sleeping for a long time.

In her sleep, she vaguely heard a call.

When she slowly opened her eyes, she found that there was thick fog all around her, which made her feel endless confusion and loneliness.

In this silent atmosphere, she heard a faint calling voice, floating faintly in the air.

A surge of curiosity surged in Yin's heart. He looked in the direction of the sound. Through the thick fog, he vaguely saw a huge tree shadow standing in the depths of the lake.

"Come on, come here." The ethereal voice sounded again, soft and tempting.

Following the guidance of the voice, countless golden branches extended from the depths of the lake, intertwining with each other to form a strange bridge.

The bridge spans the entire lake, like a passage to the unknown, extending all the way to Yin's feet.

Ah Yin looked very confident, as if she had been here many times. She leisurely stepped onto the bridge built of golden branches. With every step she took, she could feel a strong spiritual fluctuation coming from the soles of her feet, as if this bridge was the link between two worlds.

She walked step by step through the mist by the lake, gradually approaching the towering tree in the depths.

As the distance got closer, the outline of the ancient tree became clearer and clearer. Its entire body was glowing with brilliant golden light, and its branches hung down like giant wings. Its roots were deeply rooted in the depths of the lake, and its bottom was connected to the mud and sand, forming an isolated island in the lake.

Ah Yin was attracted by the wonder in front of him——

She quickened her pace slightly, wanting to find out what was going on.

When she finally stood in front of the ancient tree, a long and ancient breath blew in her face, shocking her.

"Come, come here..." The gentle voice of the ancient golden tree sounded, as if it was a call from another world.

Ah Yin involuntarily walked towards the mysterious and ancient tree and looked at the ancient golden tree.

"Bring him... here." The voice echoed in the air with an irresistible power.

Ah Yin was a little dazed, as if he knew who the other person was talking about, but he was not quite sure.

"Bring him... here." The voice sounded again, this time stronger and clearer.

Yin's heartbeat quickened as she began to realize that the person the voice was referring to might be very important to her.

The whole world disappeared, and Ah Yin's vision was flooded by the strong golden light. She subconsciously raised her hands to cover her eyes, trying to resist the dazzling light. However, the light did not weaken, but became brighter and brighter, completely surrounding her.

As the light gradually faded, Yin found himself in a familiar place—

By the Star Lake.

The lake reflects the brilliance of the starry sky like a mirror; the crescent moon hangs high in the sky, surrounded by dense jungle, and the breeze blows in the dark night, making the leaves rustle.

Ah Yin slowly woke up in the jungle, his mind in a daze.

She frowned, trying to recall what had just happened.

It was that familiar dream again, the recurring scene that made her feel confused and uneasy.

She rubbed her aching forehead and tried to clear her thoughts.

The voice in the dream kept echoing in her ears. Although it did not clearly state who would be taken to that mysterious world, the figure of Huo Yuhao always inexplicably appeared in her mind.

Ah Yin couldn't help but frown and think deeply.

Do I really have to take Huo Yuhao to find that dream world?

But why him?

This question kept lingering in her mind, making her feel very conflicted.

She decided to put these troubles aside for the time being and return to real life.

By the Star Lake.

The wind blows in the deep night and the bright moon hangs high in the sky.

Ah Yin, who had just woken up from his dream, rubbed his aching forehead and gazed at the starry lake, with the rippling water and the breeze blowing.

Across the lake, a slight strange noise came from the depths of the dark jungle.

"who is it?!"

Ah Yin was very alert, his deep blue eyes reflected a cold light in the darkness, and a large number of Blue Silver Emperors emerged under his feet, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

The other party was able to avoid the perception of her Blue Silver Domain and approach this place silently. It was obvious that his cultivation was higher than hers.

Two figures rustled out from the depths of the jungle. In the moonlight, one could tell they were a man and a woman. A young man in black robe was leading a blonde girl, whose faces were vaguely visible in the moonlight.

"It's you?"

When Ah Yin saw the face of the young man in black robe, she couldn't help but feel frightened.

Her eyes were fixed on the black-robed figure on the other side of the Star Lake. He was a rather stern young man, with golden eyes emitting a cold light in the dark night.

Huo Yuhao!

How come he is here?

Ah Yin's mind was buzzing and he even suspected that he was hallucinating.

The blonde girl following him was also an acquaintance.

That was none other than Qiu'er, the auspicious imperial beast that lived in the ancient restricted area behind the Star Lake.

"Sister Ayin." When Qiu'er saw Ayin, she called out cheerfully with a slight smile on her face.

At this moment, she was wearing a golden dress, standing gracefully beside Huo Yuhao, with her long, dazzling golden hair spreading behind her and a golden dragon wing ornament pinned on her head. Her eyes were crystal red, gorgeous and brilliant, and her smile was as beautiful as a flower.

Huo Yuhao took Qiu'er and walked around the side of Xing Lake and came to the other side of the lake to meet Ah Yin.

"Long time no see." Huo Yuhao looked at Ah Yin with a calm tone.

"Sister Yin." Qiu'er greeted her with a smile.

In fact, she still likes being with Sister Yin.

"Long time no see..." Yin looked a little dazed, obviously not expecting this day.

The Star Lake is very quiet late at night.

Xiao Wu and the two hundred thousand year old soul beasts were still resting at this time, and the arrival of Huo Yuhao and Qiu'er did not alarm them.

"What's the matter that brings you here so late at night?" Yin asked softly.

She vaguely remembered that Huo Yuhao was the type of person who would not be noticed even if he was dead when nothing happened; and when he came to look for someone, he usually came with a "mission".

To be precise, it is "instructions".

“Qiu'er and I came here this time because of your strange dream.” Huo Yuhao went straight to the point.

Ah Yin looked at Qiu'er beside her, then turned to Huo Yuhao and explained softly.

"The golden tree I saw in my recurring dream urged me to bring him to me."

"I guess the person the ancient golden tree is looking for is you, and perhaps it has a request for you. But the problem is, it's just a dream. Even if I see you today, how can I bring you in?" Ah Yin asked the doubts in his heart.

His rebirth was possible thanks to Huo Yuhao’s help.

That ancient golden tree was most likely seeking help from Huo Yuhao, either to transform or to overcome the tribulation.

“Did you really not find the corresponding anchor point in reality?” Huo Yuhao asked back.

Suddenly, a ray of starlight fell from the dark night and landed directly in the center of the Star Lake, illuminating the entire lake.

There seemed to be a star in the depths of the lake, shining brightly.

When Yin saw this scene, he was truly madly insane.
