Although the space of the palace is small, it seems a little empty and has no magnificent decoration. On both sides of the palace, there are several cases and futons, on which there are jade pots and bowls. Obviously, this is a place for those disciples who break through the pass to rest.
The gate of the palace is open. Yezan and others can see the outside at a glance, and they can also see that the Palace should be located at the half waist of a mountain peak. Outside the gate, after going down the steps, a road made of bluestone circled towards the top of the mountain.
Looking at the top of the mountain, there is a huge tree growing abruptly. The height of the tree is afraid to be thousands of feet, and the trunk is strong like a giant pillar. The huge tree canopy was more like a canopy covering the sky. The sound of thick leaves even reached the ears of everyone on this side of the palace.
"OK, what a big tree!" Lin Mu went to the gate of the palace, looked up at the huge tree on the mountain in the distance, and cried in great surprise.
People went out of the palace one after another, stood on the steps in front of the gate, and looked at the huge trees on the mountain. Each one was also full of surprise. Such a huge tree is not rare, but in their impression, it can be said to be unique. Their impression of the so-called towering tree, in front of this huge tree, I''m afraid it is just like a wild grass under the tree.
Ordinary trees can never grow so huge. Even if they grow without disease and disaster for countless years, they can''t grow to such a scale. Obviously, this giant tree definitely has an extraordinary origin because it can be valued by Xuanqing Taoist ancestors and set up a unique boundary for it.
"You listen to the sound of the leaves swinging, which seems to imply the rhyme of the avenue, which leads to the dark movement of the golden elixir. Is it that this tree is the legendary enlightenment tree?" Hou Qingyun of Tianfu sect guessed suspiciously.
However, Zhang Qian of Tianbao sect immediately shook his head and said with a smile: "What kind of enlightenment tree is this? The legendary enlightenment tree is the first tea tree between heaven and earth. Go and see what the tea tree looks like. Besides, it is said that there are three thousand leaves on the enlightenment tree, representing three thousand roads between heaven and earth. Take a piece of fried tea and drink to understand the Tao. Where are three thousand leaves on this tree? I''m afraid there are thirty million."
"These three thousand leaves are empty fingers. The avenue between heaven and earth is more than three thousand. How do you know it can''t be thirty thousand." Hou Qingyun insisted with a reddish face.
The three thousand Avenue is indeed a virtual finger. It is said that there are three thousand leaves on the Wudao tree, which is also a kind of virtual finger. However, no matter how virtual finger, it can''t be so virtual. After all, the gap is too big. What''s more, as Zhang Qian said, the Wudao tree is a tea tree, which doesn''t grow like this.
Therefore, Hou Qingyun himself, in fact, knew that his guess was unreliable, just forced to argue for face.
"I feel that the appearance of this tree is somewhat like the legendary Taichu ancient tree." a voice came from behind the crowd. It turned out that the great instrument of Xingchen sect came from behind and said: "I have seen some ancient books on the sixth floor of the Tongtian tower, among which there is a reference to this archaic tree. From the images drawn in the ancient books, it is quite similar to this tree."
"Taichu ancient tree? Don''t be kidding. The legendary Taichu ancient tree has long been transformed into this world. How can it appear here? Besides, the ancient book is also written by people. Who can see the appearance of the Taichu ancient tree before the beginning of the world?" Zhang Qian refuted with a funny face.
There are countless legends about the origin of the world in any world. Of course, in the world of science and technology, there has been the theory of the big bang, which is a more recognized and reliable explanation. In this world, there is no such saying that can be trusted by everyone.
The legend of Taichu ancient tree is one of many theories about the origin of the world. It is said that a seed bred in chaos separated from turbidity after growing up, the crown turned into heaven, the root turned into earth, and the middle trunk turned into everything in heaven and earth.
There is also a legend that a great god named Pangu was also bred from chaos. He thought the chaos was too stuffy, so he took a big axe and split the chaos, which is the so-called creation of heaven and earth. After splitting, the pure Qi rose to heaven, the turbid Qi fell to earth, and the two fruits had to be combined together. So Pangu was angry, holding the sky with his hands and the ground with his feet If you hold it, you will die, and your body will become everything in heaven and earth.
As for Pangu''s pioneering work, there are the same legends in ancient China in the world of science and technology. The reason why the two worlds have the same legends is actually very simple. Don''t forget that master Xuanyuan passed ten thousand years ago. Although master Xuanyuan has been hiding in the jade plate, he can also have a certain impact on people through some spiritual fluctuations.
Therefore, in ancient China, there is the legend of Pangu''s pioneering work, and there are many stories of fairy demons and monsters.
In doing so, Taoist Xuanyuan is certainly not idle and bored, looking for things to relieve boredom. Of course, boredom is also a reason, but the more important reason is that he hopes to use this method to guide people in the world of science and technology into monastic civilization, so that someone can help him get out of trouble.
However, the influence of Xuanyuan Taoism is still too illusory after all, and the environment of the world of science and technology is not suitable for Taoism. Therefore, although there were many people who turned to Taoism in the history of ancient China, no one really achieved Taoism.
Back to the legend of Taichu ancient trees, in fact, there are many similarities with Pangu''s pioneering work. For example, they are all bred in chaos. They are all separated into heaven and earth, supporting heaven and earth until death, and turning their bodies into all things in the world.
Therefore, it can be said that both Taichu ancient tree and Pangu great God dissipated between heaven and earth while Heaven and earth were separated. According to the legend, after the separation of heaven and earth, what dragon and Phoenix catastrophe, and what Witch and demon struggle, and then the Terran began to gradually become the protagonist of the world.
When Terrans become the protagonist between heaven and earth, I''m afraid it has been thousands of years since the beginning of heaven and earth. How can Terrans know what Taichu ancient tree or Pangu great God looks like? Even if the author of the ancient book is a powerful power, it is unlikely to go back to that era through time and space and see the ancient trees with his own eyes.
And it''s not just Terrans. Since it is said that the trunk of Taichu ancient tree has become everything in heaven and earth. That is to say, all creatures appear after the disappearance of Taichu ancient trees. In this way, where can the author of that ancient book find information about Taichu ancient trees for reference.
"Well, don''t care what kind of tree it is. Since it seems to be beneficial to our cultivation, let''s go and have a look nearby. Maybe there will be some surprises." Ye Zan looked at the huge tree and stopped the speculation and debate.
As Cheng Daqi said, ye Zan actually looked through the ancient books he saw on the sixth floor of the Tongtian tower. In other words, all the books on the sixth layer have been stored in Ye Zan''s database. Therefore, as soon as Cheng Daqi mentioned this, ye Zan had it in his mind and asked the auxiliary chip to start retrieving the data in the database.
From the database, ye Zan found not only the ancient book said by Cheng Daqi, but also some other relevant books and materials. The ancient book that Cheng Daqi said is called "the examination of the flood wasteland", which is similar to an archaeological book, but after all, there is no rigorous research method of science and technology. Therefore, the content of the "Honghuang Kao" is accurate, but it can''t produce any convincing evidence. It looks like something written by imagination alone.
Originally, ye Zan didn''t care much, but when he saw the author of Honghuang Kao, he couldn''t help being startled. The author of the "Honghuang Kao" is called Taiqing. Others may not see anything, but he has a complete genealogy of Yuqing sect. The "Taiqing" is on the first page of the genealogy of the Yuqing sect. It is the elder martial brother of the founder of the Yuqing sect.
Why is it the elder martial brother of the founder, not one of the founders? It turned out that the Taiqing had no interest in preaching to the Kaizong. He only accepted one disciple in his life, and the disciple had not been included in the gate wall of yuqingzong. Therefore, among the many inheritances of the jade Qing sect, there is no inheritance of the Taiqing branch, and naturally it can not be regarded as one of the founders.
Since the examination of the great wilderness was written by such a great power, ye Zan has to change his mind. After all, there are many things in the world that ye Zan can''t explain with his science. Therefore, he can''t say for sure that the contents of other people''s book are imagined out of thin air.
If the content of Honghuang Kao is reliable, the giant tree on the top of the peak, although it is still impossible to be a Taichu ancient tree, it probably has something to do with that Taichu ancient tree.
Because of this, ye Zan dare not let others continue the discussion. Originally, he was given the identity of an inheritor by the tower old man, and it was easy to attract others to covet. If others know that there is a tree related to Taichu ancient tree, it will really lead to disaster.
You know, according to legend, this ancient tree is the tree of creation. It''s about creation. Is that okay? Even if ye Zan, a little master of golden elixir, doesn''t know what this tree can do, as long as he has a brain, he can guess that its value is absolutely significant.
Ye Zan wants to ask the old tower, but when he thinks about the old tower, he decides not to disturb it first. Anyway, there are opportunities in the future.
After listening to Ye Zan''s words, the people didn''t think too much. They just thought what ye Zan said was reasonable. No matter what tree it is, as long as it is good for yourself, go and have a look. It''s impossible to move that tree anyway.
So ye Zan and others, as well as some of the Xingchen sect, walked down the steps in front of the palace, along the bluestone Road, towards the huge tree at the top of the peak.
However, after a short walk, Lin Limu suddenly said, "brother ye, those people in the devil''s way didn''t come out first? Why didn''t you see them."
"Have you been under that tree?" said Shi Yingjie.
However, at this time, they suddenly felt that it was dark in front of them, and the world seemed to fall into darkness all at once. At the same time, around the crowd, there was an endless sound of ghosts crying and howling, which made everyone''s mind shake and their mana become chaotic in an instant.
"Gu Feng!" Ye Zan immediately thought of the Gu Feng of the baigui sect among the demons. Only that Gu Feng can make such a scene.
"Ha ha, ye Daoyou, I''ve been waiting for you here for a long time." a voice, mixed with the ghost crying and howling, came into Ye Zan''s ears from all directions.
"Gu Feng, we have no resentment and no hatred, and we have much cooperation in the Tongtian tower. What do you want to do when you suddenly do this?" ye zanwei frowned, trying to stabilize his mind, as if he didn''t care.
"No resentment, no hatred? In the underground labyrinth, I''m afraid there are ye Daoyou among those who sneaked on us." Gu Feng''s voice floated in a gloomy voice, full of resentment in his tone.
Sure enough, the sneak attack still had some sequelae. At the beginning, ye Zan didn''t expect people from the mysterious forces to come, so he didn''t take his concealment very carefully when sneaking attacks on the demons.
And several people in the devil''s way obviously already suspected Ye Zan. However, ye Zan''s side has always been crowded, which makes several people in the devil''s way quite afraid. They can only pretend not to know the truth and wait for the settlement after autumn.
Now, the chaos on the side of the devil road must know that the people of the Tao palace and the Freemasons can''t come out. In this way, ye Zan is at most the ancestor of Ye Xiao, and ye Xiao may not even get out. As for those golden elixir masters, how could they pay attention to them? Naturally, they think it''s time to settle accounts.
"Yes, I did. It''s really hard for Taoist Gu to hold back for so long." Ye Zan simply admitted that he couldn''t hide it anyway. Why bother to defend.
In fact, ye Zan knows very well that this sneak attack is only a reason for the other party to start. The real reason, I''m afraid, lies in the identity of the inheritor. After all, when the rebellion left, it had already naked threatened itself.
"In that case, Taoist ye, please go on your way!" Gu Feng said in a Yin voice.
As Gu Feng''s voice fell, countless ghosts suddenly appeared around him. Those ghosts are not illusions, but real ferocious ghosts. Those fierce ghosts, as soon as they appeared, immediately roared and rushed towards Ye Zan and others, as if hungry people saw a table of delicious food.
Ye Zan and others naturally did not dare to neglect, and immediately wanted to sacrifice the magic weapon flying sword. However, due to the disturbance of the ghost crying and howling, most people''s mana is still in chaos, and few can successfully sacrifice the magic weapon flying sword. Even if the magic weapon flying sword is sacrificed, its power is very poor. The flying sword is shaky in the air. There is no spare power to kill the enemy.
