Chapter 258 Devil Devouring Totem(1/2)
Su Lun followed Elder Pasu through the dense forest area and came to a giant tree.
This is a giant gray elm, probably the largest tree that Su Lun has ever seen. The diameter of the trunk is more than thirty meters, with lush leaves and towering canopy. A tree is like a green island, with birds twitter.
During the flowering period, wicker-like branches hang down from the branches, covered with strings of small white flowers. The breeze blows, and white petals are scattered all over the sky, like falling snow.
There is a tree hole at the bottom of the trunk, where there are three layers of "door"-shaped stone shelves.
The moss-covered stone shelves are carved with simple patterns, which makes people feel a sense of sacredness and solemnity.
When Pasu and Yuta came to the giant tree, they clasped their hands together and prayed solemnly.
After praying, Yuta introduced to Su Lun: "This is the sacred tree of our Daru tribe. It is as old as the holy land. I heard from our ancestors that the sacred tree was personally blessed by the great God of Nature. Got through."
Su Lun also looked slightly sideways when he heard this. This tree was indeed different from others, giving people a spiritual feeling.
The branches were waving as if to welcome him as a guest.
Yuta said again: "Let's go, the patriarch and the others are inside."
Su Lun nodded and walked into the tree hole.
Once you enter, you will find a completely different world.
The space in the tree hole is larger and higher than that from the outside. The spiral staircase runs along the wall of the tree hole, which is about three or four stories high. The walls are filled with densely packed medicine cabinets, and the shelves are filled with various herbal medicines. .There are also many dried medicinal materials hanging above the head.
There is a large rectangular wooden table in the tree hole house, and the magic stone lamp illuminates the tree house brightly.
When Su Lun came, there were already seven or eight people sitting on chairs here.
Judging from their faces, they are very old.
These are the elders of the Daru tribe.
"Only two fifth-level ones?"
Su Lun sensed the soul fire of these people and clearly identified two of them as fifth-level ones.
One of them is an old deer tribesman with a long beard on his forehead.
The antlers on his head are huge, and he looks like a wise man, probably the patriarch Mona.
There is also an old woman with gray wolf ears, who must be the "Wolf Granny" that Yuta always mentions timidly.
No wonder the Daru tribe is so weak. There are only two fifth-level members in the tribe, and they are all very old.
What made Su Lun look at him was that in the most conspicuous place in the room, there was a broken spear.
The omniscient eye took a look and realized that it had a lot of background.
[Spear Brionak Spear (Damaged)]
Detailed explanation: One of the four sacred weapons of the Daru tribe, a divine weapon given by the God of Nature; in its complete state, it can be projected over long distances, ignore obstacles, ignore defense, and pierce any law level within the user's perception range that is not higher than the spear law. Items with additional legal piercing damage; after attacking, the divine spear will return to the hand of the spear thrower; only those with natural power can drive it;
"Is this the sacred object Katyusha brought back?"
Su Lun looked at it and a thought flashed in his mind.
The effect seems to be somewhat similar to his black scythe, ignoring target defenses that do not exceed the weapon law.
Even the level of laws contained in this divine spear may be higher.
It is indeed a great weapon, but it is a pity that it is incomplete.
Su Lun didn't go to see more.
Although this spear has no side effects, it does have usage restrictions.
This is the exclusive artifact of the Daru tribe.
.......
As soon as Su Lun came in, Elder Pasu introduced: "This is Mr. Su Lun."
The elders of the Daru tribe obviously already knew the origin and purpose of Su Lun. Needless to say, everyone stood up in unison, protected their chests and said sincerely: "Thank you warrior for saving our people of the Daru tribe."
"Elders, you are welcome."
Su Lun responded politely.
At this time, Patriarch Mona started fighting, coughed twice, and went directly to the topic: "I heard from Elder Pasu that Mr. Su Lun is the successor of Sir Isaac?"
After saying this, everyone in the room looked at Su Lun expectantly.
No one knows better than these elders what the "oath" made thousands of years ago means to their Daru tribe.
The "warrior" who came yesterday brought back the sacred artifact, which was a great joy.
But after some questioning, it was discovered that she was not the "one who keeps the oath" as predicted in the prophecy.
But the young man in front of him mentioned Sir Isaac, which made it more possible.
Su Lun nodded and said: "Yes. For some special reasons, I am the disciple of Sir Isaac's wife, Ceria."
Now that he has met the leader of the Daru tribe, there is no need for him to conceal his identity.
Hearing him reveal his identity, all the wise men of the Daru tribe in the room showed surprise in their eyes.
What!
Lady Seria’s disciple?
If it's true,
This...this seniority is a bit ridiculously high.
Is this their ancestor?
But...how could this young man be the disciple of that lady from a thousand years ago?
Su Lun didn't give them any time to guess. He really couldn't explain clearly because of his seniority. He paused and then said: "I also heard Yuta talk about the ancient oath of the nobles. But I feel that the person who takes the oath may not be me.
..."
Before he finished speaking, Juta immediately looked at him in surprise.
The elders also all showed astonished expressions, fearing that their expectations would be in vain again.
It was probably the pressure of genocide that made these old people breathless. Su Lun also saw the strong desire in their eyes that changed for a moment. He did not beat around the bush and said directly: "My senior sister, who is Sir Isaac."
My biological daughter, Miss Ophelia Fei Isaac, is still alive. She also entrusted me to come to the Noble Holy Land to discuss some matters regarding the oath..."
There are very few people in this world who know Mr. Jing’s identity, and not all members of the Jing organization may know it.
Who would have thought that a character from a thousand years ago would still be alive today?
When Su Lun said this, the whole room was silent.
Originally, they were dubious when they heard Su Lun say that he was Serea's disciple. Although they would not doubt a warrior who saved their people, those words were a bit unbelievable for anyone to hear.
But now, he actually said that Sir Isaac's biological daughter is still alive?
This news was like a bombshell, sending shock waves through everyone's hearts.
A group of calm wise men could not hide the look of shock in their eyes.
For a moment, you could hear needles dropping in the huge tree house.
Everyone looked at each other, as if they didn't know how to communicate.
Su Lun looked at them without speaking, and then relayed Mr. Jing's original words, saying: "Ms. Ophelia also said... The Isaac family will always remember the oath and will use their lives to defend the friendship between humans and the Daru people.
.”
He also didn't expect that just by saying these words, he seemed to have touched some hidden prohibition.
Su Lun suddenly felt some kind of power passing through him, which made him feel refreshed, and he said softly in his heart: "Was that the force of nature just now?"
He looked towards the room and realized that it seemed that the will of the sacred tree was responding to the oath?
Only then did he realize that the oath made thousands of years ago was not that simple.
Su Lun originally thought it was something like a "covenant contract", but he didn't expect that it seemed to involve some very high level of legal power.
"Oath" is the most secret and sacred part among the Daru tribe, and is even the source of their power.
It is said that when the gods grant them natural power, the warriors of the Daru tribe will impose restrictions on themselves. This is a kind of "oath". If you abide by it, you will benefit, if you violate it, you will suffer.
This is something that Yuta can't even explain.
.......
"Is this... the sacred tree's response?!"
"The ancient oath has really come true..."
"The great God of nature has not abandoned his devout followers..."
"..."
The Daru people in the treehouse are more sensitive than Selun.
Apparently they also felt the sudden fluctuation of natural power just now, and they all began to pray excitedly.
It seemed like hundreds of years of darkest time had passed, and I thought the night had ceased forever.
At this moment, they suddenly saw the dawn.
Su Lun saw the tears of piety and excitement in the eyes of Yuta and these Daru elders, and he could feel the same in his heart.
It was as if the dark clouds had been swept away, and my eyes were filled with light of hope.
To be continued...
