Chapter 146
The field of vision flickered, the eyelids opened and closed gently, and the bird groaned slightly and opened its eyes with difficulty.
What comes into view is the blue sky. Three suns, big, middle and small, rise from the horizon, and the sunlight shines on the earth.
Que'er held her hands and sat up. Her nose accidentally touched a bud. She looked at the scene in front of her blankly and murmured to herself.
"Am I asleep...Why is there a sapling next to me?"
Que'er still vaguely remembers that before she fell asleep, the old Taoist priest used self-destruction to destroy everything around him, including Peach Blossom Temple and the entire peach blossom forest.
Although the old Taoist priest used his remaining immortal power to save her life in the end, she was still blown far away by the impact of the explosion. Later, she was so exhausted physically and mentally that she couldn't hold on anymore and lay down in the ruins.
Just fell asleep.
In this series of memories, there were no saplings around her. It would be better to say that the impact of the spiritual energy explosion destroyed everything nearby, and the death energy stained on this land was also wiped out.
"Did you grow while I was asleep?"
Que'er looked at the sapling less than a foot tall in front of him and said to himself.
The tender buds of the sapling swayed slightly as if responding to her, and Queer smiled. She could feel that the land was returning to life, and this sapling was the hope of life.
After regaining consciousness, Que'er patted the dirt on his body and stood up.
Inadvertently, she discovered a dry spring next to the sapling.
Although the land has been slowly returning to life, the spring still looks lifeless, as if it has been polluted and eroded by a deeper layer of death.
The dry spring exudes an ominous atmosphere, while the saplings on the side are full of vitality, which seems to suppress the deathly air overflowing from the spring.
Que'er was confused, and for a moment she couldn't see through the mutually suppressing relationship between the saplings and the spring.
The saplings are like peach blossom tree saplings, nourished by spiritual energy and growing vigorously.
If nothing else, this is a spiritual tree.
Today in the Age of Ending Dharma, the spiritual mountains and spiritual lands have declined sharply, and together with the spiritual herbs, medicinal herbs and spiritual trees, they have gradually disappeared from this world.
There are rumors that all spiritual trees in this world are born from chaos, and they existed long before other creatures appeared.
Spirit trees can greatly help the circulation of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so every spirit tree is an extremely precious existence, far rarer than spiritual herbs and elixirs.
Que'er has only seen one spiritual tree in the ancestral land of the Sima family. It was a towering sycamore tree with lush branches and leaves, almost covering the entire ancestral land.
The eldest lady once said to her, "Because of the blessing of the 'ancestral tree', our Sima family has been able to prosper to this day. If the 'ancestral tree' withered, the Sima family would probably disappear from the world."
There was a hint of self-mockery in the eldest lady's expression and tone when she said this. Even Que'er knew clearly that the 'ancestral tree' had been growing for nearly ten thousand years, so how could it wither easily.
Now that the spiritual energy is exhausted, the ‘ancestral tree’ is still lush and green, showing no signs of withering.
This also shows the preciousness of spiritual wood.
Que'er also heard that the longevity bamboo that the ancestor worked so hard to obtain was the withered root of a spiritual tree.
If it weren't for the withering, it might really be able to help the ancestor increase his longevity.
After hearing all kinds of rumors, Que'er didn't expect that one day she would see the spiritual tree seedlings, and she was very happy.
But what about the spring next to the sapling?
In particular, the spiritual tree seedlings and the dead energy springs restrain each other, forming a balanced pattern, so this dry land can once again gather spiritual energy and restore vitality.
