Chapter 1724 - Why do my descendants fear merit?

"Yeah?"

Xu Zu slowly stood up and temporarily suppressed the part of himself that wanted to snatch the body.

He casually wiped his chest and healed the scar with the purest power of nothingness.

The energy did not dissipate for the time being.

But this is his original power.

It comes from the initial power when the Tao Fruit is conceived.

It can be said that using a little less is a good idea.

Xu Zu said calmly, "You are in harmony with the Immortal Tree of the Realm, this is your greatest advantage."

"This will indeed help you to have a high level of perception of all realms in the Immortal Tree Realm, and you can also influence or control all Immortal Tree creations."

"But have you forgotten that your injuries will also be reflected in the Immortal Tree?"

The Immortal Ancestor frowned and suddenly sensed.

Sure enough, I saw that there was a crack on a branch on the right side of the crown of the Immortal Tree of the Realm.

The sap, which contains infinite vitality, slid to the ground.

Under normal circumstances, this would not be a big deal.

He only needs to transfer the wound to himself, and the Immortal Tree of the Realm will heal quickly.

However, the fight just now was too intense.

Xu Zu attracted too much of his attention.

He even didn't hesitate to expose his chest and reveal his flaws.

It is to create this great opportunity.

You know, there are those invisible and intangible transparent insects on the trees.

Those bugs were like blood-sucking parasites, grinding their teeth and sucking blood on the Immortal Tree.

The immortal tree that guards the world showed signs of decay and decay, and those insects were the culprits.

As for King Cang stealing the heart of the Longevity Tree in order to achieve immortality, it accelerated the decay of the Immortal Tree.

But even if the tree heart had not been stolen, the Immortal Tree of the Realm would have been constantly devoured by insects and would eventually have gone from bad to worse, eventually withering and dying completely.

And now, this hole has become a perfect opportunity for the insects to further devour the fairy tree!

A thousand-mile long dike can be destroyed by a single ant hole.

This cut will probably further weaken the immortal tree!

The Immortal Ancestor did not hesitate and directly transferred the injury from the Immortal Tree to himself.

Xu Zu laughed, "We are both Dao Fruits, and you have protected the tree all your life. Even if the tree has given birth to the mirror and fire and wants to destroy you, you still protect the tree."

"And my lifelong wish is to destroy the tree! Even if it is reborn, my wish will not change!"

"Do you know why the paths taken by people who have achieved the same Dao Fruit are so different?"

The Immortal Ancestor did not speak.

Xu Zu laughed loudly, "I have thought about this for a long time, so long that I was still thinking about it just before I stepped into this place again."

"But now I know."

"I and those bugs that gnaw at the immortal tree are one and the same!"

"The tree tried to expel the bugs from its body, and I am the product! The unlucky fruit of Tao!"

"So from the very beginning, my Dao Fruit was destined to be destroyed."

The Immortal Ancestor suddenly raised his head and looked at the Void Ancestor, as if he had guessed something.

Xu Zu laughed loudly, looking up to the sky, "I, the ancestor of Xu people, have been entangled with the cause and effect of tree-eating insects since I was born!"

"But why are my descendants so afraid of merit that they can gain merit by killing them?"

The Immortal Ancestor’s eyes flickered.

Xu Zu laughed, "You guessed it, let me help you answer it!"

"Tree-eating insects are also from outer space!"

"Since it is something from outer space, it will naturally be suppressed by the instinct of this world!"

"For a long time, I have always believed that I am the fruit of the fairy tree and a part of this world. Even though I have obtained the body of the Eternal Guardian, my soul cannot escape the control of the fairy tree."

"Now I finally understand that I have been imprisoned in a circle for so many years!"

"As long as I abandon the part of the fairy tree fruit and embrace the part of the tree-eating insects, my soul will become a completely celestial soul!"

At this moment, many vague fragments of memories flooded into his mind.

He saw a huge hand that covered the sky and the sun flick its fingers, and countless transparent objects seemed to flash at the fingertips and disappear out of thin air.

He saw a green seed floating in the dark sky and earth, its surface stained by those transparent substances.

He saw that the seed finally sank into a boundary barrier, took root, sprouted, and grew into a big tree.

He also saw that at every stage of the seed's growth, the causal lice were constantly gnawing at it...

At this moment, wisps of light escaped from his body and disappeared.

That is exactly the understanding of the fruit of the immortal tree.

At this moment, he felt his connection with the tree-eating insects growing at a rapid rate.

It's like a stray horse finally found its big family.

"Food!"

He uttered a word, and those transparent tree-eating insects swarmed towards the wound.

Before the Immortal Ancestor could react, thousands of cause and effect lice crawled into the wound.

In the past, these insects had no intelligence and could only lazily lie around and gnaw at various places on the fairy trees.

Now there is a commander.

There is a huge difference!

Almost in an instant, the Immortal Ancestor felt a piercing pain.

When you are connected to the Immortal Tree, your injuries will become the Immortal Tree's injuries. Similarly, the Immortal Tree's pain will become your pain!

Crash.

The leaves with yellow and curled edges kept falling, falling straight down as if they were filled with lead, and no longer swirled and fell leisurely like before.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of leaves fell.

The trunk of the Immortal Tree of the Realm was withering and decaying at a speed visible to the naked eye.

You can faintly smell the unpleasant odor of rotting tree trunks.

The Immortal Ancestor took a deep breath and let the unpleasant smell fill his nostrils.

He suddenly said calmly, "No wonder father never mentioned Tianwai."

"No wonder my father ordered me to destroy you no matter what."

Xu Zu smiled, but said nothing, and continued to concentrate on controlling the tree-eating insects to devour the fairy tree.

The Immortal Ancestor stretched out his hand and suddenly pulled out a broken sword out of thin air.

The broken sword was frozen in ice, not a single breath leaking out.

But even so, there was an ominous aura lingering around.

Suddenly, dark clouds appeared in the sky, and there was rumbling thunder, as if they were afraid of the sword.

Xu Zu also narrowed his eyes, "That... is also something from outer space?"

The Immortal Ancestor said calmly, "I didn't want to use this sword."

"It is instinctively rejected by the will of the great world. Once it is activated, I will have to consume my original power to resist the suppression of the will of the great world."

“But now it’s time to use it.”

"Didn't the Ancient Guard have one arm chopped off? It was this one that chopped it off."

"I also sent an immortal messenger to look for the Ancient Guardian, but I failed to find him. However, I did find this broken sword!"

As the Immortal Ancestor's voice fell, he shook violently, and the ice wrapped around the broken sword suddenly cracked, instantly exploding into countless ice chips.

In an instant, thunder roared and lightning struck!

The whole world seems to be angry about it!

The Immortal Ancestor slapped the sky with his left hand, which turned into a giant hand supporting the sky, continuously resisting the falling thunder.

He held the sword in his right hand and slashed forward.

There are no fancy tricks, just an ordinary, straightforward cut.

In an instant, a line cracked across the Ancient Guard from head to toes.

There was an explosion sound coming from within his body, as if the world was collapsing.

That was the sound of the core exploding.

boom!

The Eternal Guard was blown to pieces, and what flew out was not Xu Zu's original spirit, but countless cause and effect lice wrapped in the power of nothingness - Xu Zu had completely abandoned the essence of the fairy tree, and turned into a tree-eating insect from outer space!

The Immortal Ancestor held the sword and slashed again.

Wherever the sword flashed, the sword energy vibrated and even the space was shredded.

Cause and effect lice are reduced to ashes.

Not a single one left.

"Dead?"

"Not dead."

The Immortal Ancestor asked and answered himself, shaking his head.

He froze the broken sword with ice again and turned to look at the fairy tree. Countless transparent causal lice were still gnawing at it.

"Karma lice... Karma... As long as all the bugs on father's body are not dead, he will not die."

At this moment, rumbling thunder suddenly came from the distance.

He frowned, "Someone has been promoted to the fifth realm?"

“What a coincidence.”

"Is it the Mirror Master or the Fire Master?"
