Chapter 704
"This is the Fire God Tree. It was also one of the Fire Nation's sacrificial spirits back then." Some people were talking about it. Apparently, Shi Hao was not the only one who was surprised. Many people who had just arrived in this city looked the same.
This place has become a scenic spot. Anyone who comes to the Fire Country must come here to see it, otherwise it would be a pity.
"This tree has existed since ancient times and has continued to grow to this day. Unfortunately, its divine fire has been extinguished and its divine consciousness has dried up, and it no longer has any great magical powers." Someone said.
Was this once a sacred tree for offering sacrifices to spirits? After Shi Hao heard this, his eyes sparkled. This was too amazing. He stared at it carefully.
This tree is indeed huge and incredibly old. Logically, if it had grown to this size after a long time, even if its divine fire was extinguished, it would have been able to become a spirit again. It cannot be an ordinary tree.
But now it seems that it has no sacred fluctuations and no that kind of aura.
These people's discussions were not false. It once became a god, but later the divine fire went out and it turned into an ordinary tree.
Compared to the Fire God Tree itself, Shi Hao was more interested in the surrounding bustle and crowds. When one stood too high, the mundane world of fireworks became the most rare thing. So Shi Hao just stood in the crowd, watching the conversations of the people around him, with a smile on his face.
"In the ancient times, the saints fought for supremacy, and gods and men fought each other. It was a glorious time, but also a chaotic world. Strong men emerged in large numbers, and geniuses emerged. Several ancient countries took shape in that era..."
“…This tree and a red bird came from the same ancestral land of the Fire Nation. They are of similar strength, both are enlightened gods, extremely powerful, and superior to all living beings.
When the Fire Clan was founded, it accompanied the Holy Emperor of the Fire Clan in its conquests and made great contributions. Unfortunately, it was robbed in that era of war among heroes, and the sacred fire was destroyed and fell from the altar. Suzaku and the Holy Emperor were its old friends, and they planted it in the Fire Clan capital and kept it alive with their faith.
Although it survived, its will and divine fire had dissipated, and it became just an ordinary tree..."
"The reason why I can live so long is because I waited for the nourishment of the Fountain of Youth, but I can no longer ignite the divine fire, and I can't even produce Taoism."
Many people were discussing this and were quite emotional that a god who witnessed the glory of ancient times ended up like this.
Of course, some people also talked about another rumor about the Fire God Tree, saying that the Fire God Tree was in Nirvana, and one day in the future it would return from Nirvana and so on...
Anyway, under Shi Hao's watchful gaze, first two people who expressed different opinions started debating, and then the people watching at the scene also chose one of them to join in the debate, which was quite lively.
It was not until the imperial guards drove them away and both groups dispersed that Shi Hao and the other guys who had been watching the fun from beginning to end, like Shi Hao, shook their heads with regret and prepared to leave.
"Let's go up to Tianque, have a cup of tea and eat something." Someone said, calling his companions.
……
In the sky, there are many suspended palaces, all of which are very grand and high above the ground, all surrounding this ancient tree.
This is Dengtian Pavilion!
Mortals cannot reach up and cannot fly into the sky. These are truly magnificent palaces, built in the air, and protected by intricate magic arrays to prevent them from falling.
The palaces radiate a crystal-like luster, with clouds and mist swirling around them. One palace after another really looks like a vast divine palace.
Besides the beautiful view, another characteristic of Dengtian Pavilion is that it is expensive! Everything is expensive! Even a cup of ordinary tea is too expensive for an ordinary person to afford in his lifetime!
Shi Hao flew to the front of the Dengtian Pavilion, stepped on the jade steps, and entered the most magnificent palace. He paid a high price to come inside and saw how extraordinary it was.
Those who can enter and exit are naturally cultivators, and their status is not ordinary. Otherwise, the price would be too expensive, enough to discourage ordinary practitioners.
In a sense, this place has become a gathering place for cultivators from the Stone Kingdom's imperial capital. After arriving in this magnificent area, Shi Hao saw more creatures from outside the domain.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Shi Hao came to a seat by the window and sat down. After ordering some special drinks and delicacies, he looked out the window.
When you look at it, apart from the imperial palace, you can see almost the entire imperial capital. This alone is worth the expensive price of Dengtian Pavilion.
At the same time, the conversations of the people around him also clearly entered Shi Hao's ears. Various kinds of information gathered, but the main thing was the discussion about the great calamity in the wasteland.
"The Venerable is almost invisible now. Chao Bubao, the situation is a bit critical, and now everyone is hiding."
"Sacred beings are no better than grass. This is the news from a great sect outside the region. It seems that those with higher cultivation levels were greatly affected by this catastrophe. You and I should be fine, right?"
"Well, it should be true. Even the masters of the foreign sects have tried every means to retreat, but their young disciples have stayed. The day of change is not far away."
"..."
Great turmoil is also bound to be accompanied by great opportunities. Shi Hao was not surprised at the choice of these major sects.
After listening silently for a while, and eating the food and wine, Shi Hao chose to stay here directly and be better to himself.
The big red bird was secretly dissatisfied with this and felt sleepy every day, staying by the side unwillingly.
A few days later, Shi Hao suddenly moved his ears, as if he heard a huge heartbeat from the ancient tree.
"Hmm? Is it time yet?"
Sitting on the seat by the window of Dengtian Pavilion, Shi Hao paused while drinking and looked towards the Fire Emperor Tree. It seemed that his eyes passed through the shadowy wings of Vermillion Bird inside the Fire Emperor Tree and saw a golden coffin with a man lying in it.
This man looked very unusual, with an astonishing aura, and was surprisingly similar to a broken stone statue seen in the Holy Emperor Palace in the Fire Clan's ancestral land. Huo Linger once told him that that was the ancient Holy Emperor of the Fire Clan!
The golden coffin blocked a hole. The sight easily passed over the complicated array patterns and saw that the ancient cave was unfathomable, as if it was connected to an ancient world.
On the misty ground, there were corpses everywhere and many broken weapons. It seemed like a huge ancient battlefield, extremely gloomy.
But in the blink of an eye, those things disappeared, and there was a surging holy light, as if seeing the light gate next to Kunpeng's nest, with mysterious power flowing.
"Supreme Divine Treasure, Elixir of Immortality, Third Killing Formation..."
After taking a glance, Shi Hao withdrew his gaze. Although even some true supreme beings would be moved by Xie, Shi Hao could not be interested at all.
Just at this time,
"Hey, Princess Qianqian is here! She is one of the ten beauties in Xuanyu and is very famous among the younger generation." Someone whispered with eager eyes.
Shi Hao raised his head and looked outside, and saw the woman. She was the beautiful alien creature he met when he first entered the Fire Nation’s imperial capital.
She was obviously not a human. There was a diamond-shaped mark between her eyebrows. In addition, she had a pair of jade horns on her head, shaped like dragon horns. They were very short and radiantly flowed between her hair, adding a strange sense of beauty.
Apart from this, she was no different from humans—tall and pretty, but occasionally her eyes would gleam with a sharp light.
"Xuanyu..."
Hearing this name, Shi Hao was silent for a moment, because he knew from his memory that his parents lived in Xuan Yu, and that he also had a younger brother.
Thinking of the memories of his parents and younger brother, Shi Hao fell into a longer silence.
Just as Shi Hao fell silent, in the Dengtian Pavilion,
Princess Qianqian was surrounded by some people, all of whom were very strong and were obviously the best in the area. They chose a table and gathered together.
"Princess Qianqian heard that your genius cousin has successfully learned martial arts and has returned from the Western Sect. Didn't he come to the Wilderness? According to his personality, he would definitely come after hearing about the Twin Stones War. I wonder where he is now?" A person who obviously knew Princess Qianqian spoke up.
Many people were shocked. Although the madman was a disciple of the Western religion, he did not seem like one of the people of the religion. He challenged people everywhere and was very angry. He would bite anyone he saw. He was an extremely scary person.
It is said that he has cultivated an indestructible body of Vajra and is on the path to sanctification of the physical body. He is so powerful in the mysterious world that he has always been able to defeat all his enemies and has hardly ever been defeated.
The Western Sect, also known as the Western Heaven Sect, is on par with the Bu Tian Sect and Jie Tian Sect, and is known as an immortal sect that spans several domains. The Vajra Indestructible Body is one of their sacred skills, and those who can inherit this are extraordinary.
"I think he should be here." Qianqian said, with her hair loose, her eyebrows very light, and her smile showing her teeth, like a blooming flower.
Many people were shocked after hearing this. Obviously, everyone in Xuanyu knew how powerful that madman was, and the person they least wanted to meet was him.
Xuanyu is an absolutely extraordinary domain. It not only has a vast territory, but also has many outstanding people and talents. The foundation of the Xitian Sect lies in that domain.
"He's just a madman, and he can only commit crimes in Xuanyu." Someone said in a cold voice, which immediately made the place quieter.
There was actually someone who said something like that and didn't care about that madman. He must be extremely powerful. Everyone looked towards a jade table where a person was sitting.
He has an ordinary appearance, without any special temperament, and looks very much like a human, but he is definitely not, because he has a pair of white wings behind him and a halo on his head.
"A strong man of the Feather Clan with royal blood!" Someone gasped. This is an extremely rare person in the Feather Clan, very rare, with super royal blood. If he grows to the end, he may become the leader of the clan.
Which domain is he from? Many people are speculating, because the Feather Clan is indeed a large clan, spread across various domains, and if they can really unite together, their strength will be terrifying.
The people from Xuanyu looked over there and stared at him. The people around Princess Qianqian all had unfriendly expressions and the atmosphere was a bit tense.
"boom!"
At this moment, the door of the palace was kicked open heavily, and several creatures came in with gloomy faces, seeming very unhappy.
"Hey, these are creatures from Hongyu. Judging from their looks, they must have gone to the Fire Palace to visit the princess again, but were turned away again." Someone whispered, because this situation had happened more than once.
Recently, Huo Ling'er of the Fire Clan has been fed up with people trying to find the "Little Stone" in the Twin Stones War through her, and finally she had to shut herself up and not see anyone. !
"What's so great about her? She's just a princess of the human race. She's so arrogant. The Desolate Territory is doomed. I wonder how long she can keep being so arrogant!"
These creatures looked gloomy and very angry. They were not human, but had transformed into human forms. When they were angry, bursts of black air appeared on their faces.
"The Wasteland is over. The Fire Nation will no longer exist. By then, the so-called princess will be nothing but a blade of grass!"
They were very angry, their words were cold and murderous.
Someone recognized that these people were the strong men of the Black Cloud Clan of Hongyu. It was said that they were transformed from the black clouds in the devil's land and cultivated into human form. Each of them was very strange and powerful!
When mentioning Hongyu, everyone will think of the black cloud devil land, where an invincible strong man was born, who conquered Xuanyu and fought against the old leader of Xitian Sect.
Looking through the past and present, there are only a few people who dare to challenge the Western Heaven Sect, namely that monkey, and the Black Cloud Clan Supreme before Wu Juanyue, and a few others who are bold enough to kill the Western Heaven Sect.
"Do you guys still want to challenge Xiaoshi?" someone asked, staring at the powerful men of the Black Cloud Clan.
"Humph!" A strong man from the Black Cloud Clan snorted coldly and said, "We don't want to, but someone from our clan wants to summon him."
Everyone looked surprised. They had already heard that the Black Cloud Clan was becoming increasingly powerful and had produced several extraordinary geniuses in recent years. Most of them wanted to see what the rumored Shi Hao was like.
"These creatures from outside the domain are too powerful. They are very disrespectful to our desolate domain." Someone whispered. Naturally, there are many powerful human beings here.
"The water in the desolate area, that is, some ancient sacred mountains, is very deep, but in this catastrophe, most of the mountain gates will be closed. As for the human race here, they are really weak." A creature in the Xuanyu shook his head.
Many people agreed, including some from outside the region.
“If the human race here had figures like Fairy Yuechan or the Witch, they would naturally not be looked down upon. Currently, there is only one Shi Hao, but we don’t know whether he is alive or dead. Could it be that he was really destroyed in the decisive battle and will never appear in the world again?”
"Whether it's a big rock or a stone, if they're alive, as long as one of them shows up, I can crush your tribe with just one finger!"
Someone was whispering, and the words were intermittent and it was difficult to tell who was speaking.
Before the foreign geniuses here could get angry, they saw those people from Hongyu who were originally dissatisfied, mocking and cursing Huo Linger suddenly began to burn from the soles of their feet. After a moment, their entire bodies were swallowed by the flames and turned into a pool of ashes!
A genius from a top domain was turned into ashes just like that. This scene really scared many people present and made them realize that there are some things that cannot be said casually on other people’s territory!
Seeing this, all the human geniuses who were also sitting in the pavilion looked a little more arrogant!
Yes, although there are few top geniuses of the human race in their wilderness, it does not mean that there are no strong ones!
Can we still be bullied by you foreigners in our own territory? !
For a moment, the expressions of these human geniuses when they looked at the people from other domains were filled with arrogance and pride, which made these foreign races and aliens secretly grit their teeth, but they did not dare to attack openly!
Seeing that the show was over, Shi Hao stood up and walked straight to the door. He still wanted to visit other places in the Fire Nation's imperial capital.
