Chapter 195: Fruit of the Sacred Tree
The sea was surging and the cold wind was howling.
A large ship was cutting through the waves, sailing eastward.
The ship did not raise its sails, but the amazing thing was that the speed of this sailless ship was as fast as a galloping horse.
The reason for this is that under the ship, beneath the sea, there is a ten-foot-long green-scaled python, which is stirring up the undercurrent and driving the ship.
It is obvious that this ship is the one that Ni Kun and his party are on.
After returning south from the grassland, sending Zhao Min through Lingwu County and sending her and the armed mining car into the territory controlled by the Qin army, Ni Kun accepted her invitation to have a banquet at her house when he went to Chang'an again in the future. He then led his men back to Taiyuan, picked up Kankan, Wen Caiting, and Bai Qing'er, and comforted Li Xiuning. Then he went straight to Donglai County and set out to sea from Wendeng County.
Dongfang Bai also stayed in Taiyuan.
Ni Kun wrote two letters, left some cultivation techniques and resources, and asked her to send the letters, techniques, and some cultivation resources to Shuzhong and give them to Shi Qingxuan and Shi Feixuan when she was free.
While asking Dongfang Bai to help him deliver the express, he also accepted express deliveries from other people - Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng wrote a letter and prepared some calligraphy and paintings, antiques and other gifts, asking him to help pass them on to their master Huang Yaoshi.
Although Ni Kun did not sail from the East China Sea on his trip to Japan, he readily agreed to the request of Chen Mei and the others.
You won’t pass through the East China Sea when you go there, but when you come back you can go south to the East China Sea, go to Peach Blossom Island, and visit Huang Yaoshi.
Speaking of which, he had wanted to visit Huang Yaoshi for a long time to ask him about the "Plum Blossom Divination", but unfortunately he never had the time to make the trip.
After dealing with the affairs of Japan and returning to the Central Plains, he took the opportunity to help Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng deliver a letter and went to Peach Blossom Island.
now.
Xiaoqing was working hard to drive the big ship, heading east.
Ni Kun took advantage of the opportunity when the boat was sailing on the sea and had nothing to do to study the "Yuan-devouring Method".
He wanted to use the method of Shi Yuan Da Fa to control the evil spirit on a large scale, and perfect his own method of using the power of the five elements and the power of thunder on a large scale.
The "Yuan-Devouring Technique" is a magical technique with great potential and power.
The secret book alone is worth two yellow crystals and thirty thousand reincarnation points. It is more powerful than the Blood Evil Killing God Sword and the Blood Evil Searching God Hand.
Even though Ni Kun had extensive experience in cleansing his magic and transforming evil into good, it was still a very difficult attempt for him to extract the essence from the Yuan-devouring Technique.
Fortunately, he still has more than 600 years to live, and his physique and self-healing ability are strong enough. Even if he makes a mistake in his attempt and suffers backlash, causing serious injuries or even death, it doesn't matter.
After a day of practice, Ni Kun suffered more than ten serious injuries and died three times, but he finally summed up a lot of useful experiences and lessons and gained a little.
Cultivation cannot be achieved overnight, and sailing on the sea is not a good time for long-term seclusion.
So after practicing until the evening, Ni Kun decisively stopped and went out of the cabin to rest.
With Xiaoqing, a powerful combat pet and mount, the sailboat can be treated as an ocean-going yacht with automatic driving and automatic navigation functions, so there is not a single boatman or sailor on the entire ship.
Since there were no outsiders, based on Ni Kun's personal preference , the girls on the boat were dressed in particularly cool and sexy clothes.
When Ni Kun came out of the meditation room, he happened to run into Zhu Yuyan in the corridor.
She was wearing a deep V-neck white gauze dress in ancient Roman style, and the material underneath the dress was naturally pure and pollution-free.
The ankle-length skirt was slit diagonally to the base of the legs. When she walked, her 1.78-meter-tall figure and her exceptionally slender, snow-white legs were clearly visible from the ankles to the base of the legs.
Among the girls around Ni Kun, Zhu Yuyan stands out in terms of height. She also has a pair of long legs that are as powerful as two white pythons, which is what Ni Kun likes the most.
He practiced for a day, was seriously injured more than a dozen times, and died three times, and felt a little depressed inside.
Seeing Zhu Yuyan, who was wearing cool and charming clothes but looked as cool and elegant as a queen, he couldn't control himself immediately. Without waiting for her to say hello, he pushed her against the wall in the corridor, put his arms around her slender and strong waist, and kissed her without any hesitation.
In the restaurant.
Kanan, Wen Caiting, Bai Qing'er, and Gangshou waited for a long time. Seeing that the food was getting cold, Zhu Yuyan did not call Ni Kun.
"Perhaps the young master is at a critical stage in his cultivation, and Master doesn't want to disturb him."
Wearing the same white gauze dress as Zhu Yuyan, with the lining also pure and unpolluted, Kanan said:
"I'll go take a look. If I'm not back in a moment, you can eat first and don't have to wait for us."
After saying this, he stood up and left his seat to go find Zhu Yuyan.
Of course, he never came back after this trip.
Since no one is coming, Tsunade, Wen Caiting and Bai Qing'er have to eat first.
When the three of them finished their meal and went out to digest the food, they passed a corridor and suddenly heard the faint voice of Kanan.
The rhythm of the sound was too familiar. The three of them looked at each other for a while, then leaned over the corner of the corridor and looked out, with a strange light flashing in their eyes.
Wen Caiting licked her lips and snorted:
"Senior Sister and Qian'er are so unkind..."
Bai Qinger nodded seriously:
"It's better to share the joy with others than to enjoy it alone. Let's do it together?"
Tsunade laughed dryly:
"You guys go ahead, I'll just watch from here."
Bai Qinger rolled her eyes:
"Tsk, stop pretending, Tsunade, when didn't you have the most fun?"
After giving Wen Caiting a wink, the two of them attacked at the same time, grabbed Tsunade's arm, and dragged her straight into the formation.
Tsunade struggled symbolically.
If she really wanted to struggle, no one on the boat, except Ni Kun, could control her, not even Xiao Qing.
However, after learning skills from the Yin-Gui demon girls, Tsunade became more relaxed as she had participated in several group singing and dancing activities.
Especially when it was her turn to compete with Ni Kun, the assists from the Yin Gui demon girls always allowed Tsunade to experience a different kind of fun.
She struggled slightly and then let Bai Qing'er and Wen Caiting grab her and rush into the battle.
Ni Kun had not expected that what was originally just an ordinary sparring match would eventually turn into a battle in which he was besieged.
Fortunately, he has great magical powers, including various whitewashed and thunder-modified versions of magic skills, as well as the Whip of Thorns and Seven Strikes of Purple Thunder, which he had studied with great concentration under the terrifying pressure of Super Girl. These magical powers are extremely powerful. Even if he is outnumbered, Ni Kun can still remain calm and win a great victory.
When Tsunade, who was the last to go into battle, also knelt down in front of Ni Kun, Ni Kun, who was still standing proudly, smiled slightly:
"The battle has just begun."
The demon girls were immediately horrified. Kankan gritted her teeth and said:
"Don't bully my master, uncle, or uncle-in-law. Come to me if you have anything to say!"
Zhu Yuyan was very touched, and then decisively refused:
"No! As a master, how can I let my disciple stand in front of me? Qian'er, step back and let me experience your magical powers!"
Bai Qing'er, who was still gasping for breath a second ago and looked like she had been badly beaten and was dying, barely took a breath and said in a trembling voice: "Master, I can do it too..."
Wen Caiting gritted her teeth and said, "Don't fight with me! Let me, a villain who deserves no pity for his death, do it for you... Oh no!"
But Zhu Yuyan tapped him on the ribs and he fell down...
midnight.
Ni Kun was like the devilish Sun Wukong who had just defeated Xingyiquan, Tiancanjiao, and broke the great sword of Kongxu Gongzi. While wiping his mouth, he said leisurely:
"We had a lot of fun today... But no matter how much fun we have, we can't be lazy! Get up and practice!"
Under his encouragement, Zhu Yuyan and the others forced themselves to endure their tired bodies, and returned to the cabin with full of positive energy that was beneficial to their body and mind and even to their spiritual practice, and began to practice while they were still energetic.
Ni Kun, shirtless and wearing only a pair of boxer shorts, came to the deck in high spirits and called Xiaoqing to come up and rest.
Xiaoqing was busy all day long, from morning to midnight.
Even though she was a transformed demon with profound skills and great stamina, she still had to rest for a while before she could be in better condition to continue being driven by Ni Kun.
Xiao Qing broke out of the water and turned into a human form. She lifted her wet hair and threw herself into Ni Kun's arms. She gave him a big kiss and said with a grin:
"I just heard a lot of noise on the boat. Sir, the sea water is so cold. I've worked so hard. Can you give me some warmth as a reward?"
Ni Kun put one arm around Xiao Qing's charming waist and the other hand lifted her up by the knees, picked her up and carried her sideways to the boathouse.
"I will be your heater tonight until tomorrow morning."
Xiaoqing's eyebrows suddenly curved into crescents.
Even now, she would half-reveal herself when excited and couldn't do anything big.
However, she has hands and mouth, can sing and dance, is proactive and good at learning, and has learned a lot from the Yin Gui demon girls. Now she can be considered a qualified pet.
And she had indeed worked hard today, so Ni Kun would naturally reward her with the thunder-modified version of Demonic Bliss.
Half an hour later.
Xiaoqing's half body turned into a snake's tail, tightly wrapping around Ni Kun's legs. She rested her rosy face on his chest and fell into a deep sleep.
There were still tiny tears hanging on her long eyelashes, but the corners of her lips were slightly raised, revealing a sweet smile. I don't know what good thing she dreamed about.
Ni Kun held Xiao Qing's flexible waist with one hand, rested his head with the other, stared at the ceiling, and thought to himself:
With my current physique and supernatural powers, I should be able to defeat even Super Girl, right?
When I have some free time, I must find an opportunity to go to the world of superheroes and give Gracia a surprise...
After thinking for a while, Ni Kun closed his eyes and began to visualize the Amitabha Sutra.
He now requires almost no sleep at all.
In other words, the time he spent sleeping was the time he spent practicing the Amitabha Sutra.
After closing your eyes, imagine the golden body of Buddha. Your mind will be calm and peaceful, without any distracting thoughts or ideas. Not only will you get enough rest, but your spirit and soul will also grow rapidly in this process.
Although he did not practice the Out-of-Body Soul Technique, his spiritual perception became increasingly sharper as his spirit and soul grew stronger, and the power of his two pupil techniques, Breaking Evil and Returning the Pupil, and Shocking Eyes, also grew stronger. He also became more sophisticated and flexible in operating the flying sword, the lightning sword, and other distance skills.
"With my current strength, it should be enough to deal with the chess pieces of the extraterritorial demons in the world. Even if there are stronger chess pieces coming in the future, I should be able to deal with them at the speed I am growing...
“I just don’t know when I will be able to grow up to the point where I can face off against a strong man like An Wuji… Speaking of which, after the successful fusion of the Five Elements bloodline and the great increase in my strength, the effect of the Yuanpin Heavenly Pearl on me has begun to slowly decline and is no longer as powerful as before.
"When I have time in the future, I will have to visit more reincarnation worlds and try to find more powerful cultivation resources..."
…
The main island of Japan, at the foot of Mount Fuji.
The Koga ninja Kasumi Keibu performed the "Senra Mutilation" technique, and his entire body merged with the dry and desertified earth, staring at the top of Mount Fuji with a dull look in the distance.
The once lush and green Mount Fuji has long since turned into a barren mountain with no grass growing on it.
The vast forest at the foot of the mountain has also turned into a dead Gobi desert, as if it had been desertified for thousands of years.
Only at the pass of Mount Fuji, which was once covered with snow but is now a wasteland, stands a huge, bizarre and thriving tree.
Tall and thick twisted tree roots like city walls spread out from the Mount Fuji Pass, covering the entire pass and even extending to the mountainside.
The tree roots are so large and huge, supporting a huge trunk that is a thousand meters high, like a pillar supporting the sky, with the top out of sight.
The trunk is straight and thick, bare without any branches or leaves.
But the top of the tree trunk - Xia Xingbu actually couldn't see the top of the tree, but when he tried his best to look up at the top of the tree, a strange illusion always appeared in front of his eyes .
It was a huge, half-opened bud.
The flower buds are stacked one upon another, enchanting and strange. In the middle grows a blood-red fruit with circles of strange patterns and magatama-like runes, like a fruit with a strange giant pupil.
When Xia Xingbu tried to see the fruit clearly.
He always felt that the fruit with giant pupils was also staring at him.
That "gaze" that seemed like an abyss that could absorb all visible and invisible existences made Xia Xingbu shudder. His heart twitched, and his body, which was integrated into the mud and rocks, couldn't help but tremble, causing the ground where he was hiding to tremble slightly.
Suddenly, a breeze blew in, bringing with it a faint fragrance.
Accompanied by the breeze and fragrance.
A long shadow was cast in Kasumi Keibu's field of vision, blocking his view of Mount Fuji.
Xia Xingbu's heart skipped a beat and his eyes slowly moved upwards.
A tall and slender white figure came into his sight.
That was a beautiful woman.
She was wearing an intricate robe embroidered with black jade symbols and with purple edges and a white background. The hem of the robe even covered her feet that were suspended in the air, leaving her body completely airtight, revealing only a section of her slender neck.
Her skin was extremely white, as translucent as snow, and her ankle-length, straight hair was also as white as snow, but in the sun, it sparkled with a pale blue glow.
She has two horns on her head and her pupils are pure white, but this does not detract from her beauty at all. Instead, it gives her a certain strange charm that makes people almost reluctant to take their eyes off her face.
But at this moment, Xia Xingbu had no intention of appreciating her beauty and charm. There was only deep fear in his heart.
Although he is an elite ninja of Koga who is born with supernatural powers, superb martial arts, and has mastered ninjutsu.
But when his gaze met the woman's indifferent and ruthless eyes, an indescribable fear was like an invisible hand, tightly grasping his heart.
The ninjutsu was not broken, he was still integrated into the mud and rocks, and from the outside, there was no trace at all.
But he just had an instinctive feeling - his Senluo form-destroying escape technique could not escape the woman's strange white eyes.
This beautiful white lady...
She has discovered me and locked onto me. No matter what, I cannot escape from her sight.
Taking a deep breath, Kasumi Keibu relied on the tough willpower of a ninja to suppress the fear in his heart. He slowly emerged from the ground, bowed slightly to the woman whose feet were off the ground and suspended in the air, and said in a slightly trembling voice:
"Respected Princess, I am a retainer of the Sun God, Kasumi Keibu, the Koga Ninja. I apologize for intruding into your territory."
The woman's white pupils looked down at Xia Xingbu indifferently.
After a long silence, he spoke in Japanese with a slightly strange and awkward accent:
"Sun God? Amaterasu?"
"It's not Amaterasu from the Wa Island." Xia Xingbu said in a deep voice, "It's the Sun God from the Central Plains."
"Central Plains Sun God?" The woman said slowly, "Is he strong?"
"Very strong!" Xia Xingbu nodded decisively: "My lord can flatten a sacred mountain like Mount Fuji with one blow."
He was not bragging, but seriously believed that his lord Ni Kun's magical power of "The Coming of the Great Sun" could flatten Mount Fuji.
However, if it is only a fusion nuclear explosion with an equivalent of 500,000 tons, it can only flatten Mount Fuji.
"Raze this mountain?" The woman seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, she asked:
"Why are you here?"
Xia Xingbu said: "I came here to investigate the changes on the main island of Japan."
As he spoke, he glanced at the towering tree:
"May I ask you, Master Ji, Mount Fuji has become a barren mountain, the foot of the mountain has become a desert, and the entire island has been experiencing a severe drought for half a year, with rivers and lakes drying up, forests withering, fields failing to produce crops, and animals dying... Is all this caused by that strange tree?"
The woman said calmly, "Not bad."
Xia Xingbu's heart skipped a beat and he said in a trembling voice:
"May I ask, Master Ji, will this strange tree drain the vitality of the entire Japanese island?"
"Not only that." The woman said calmly, "All the islands of this small island nation, the seas surrounding the islands, and the Central Plains you mentioned... the vitality of the entire world will be drained by the sacred tree."
Xia Xingbu's pupils suddenly shrank, he opened his mouth, and said in a hoarse voice:
"May I ask, Lord Ji...what does this tree have to do with you?"
The woman said casually: "The sacred tree was planted by me."
A surge of anger instantly swept through Xia Xingbu's heart.
I didn't expect that this woman who looked like a goddess could be so cruel. She actually planted this strange tree to devour the vitality of the entire world...
If she succeeds, won't the whole world become a desert with no grass, no water, and no humans or animals dead?
Although he was furious, Xia Xingbu still managed to control his emotions and said earnestly:
"Ji Jun, this is too cruel, please show some mercy!"
When the woman heard this, a hint of curiosity appeared in her indifferent white eyes:
"What gave you the courage to ask me to 'show mercy'? Was it that Zhongyuan Taishen?"
Xia Xingbu said slowly with a hoarse voice:
"My master will never sit idly by and watch what Lord Ji has done...
"Even if you kill me, my master will know about the scale of the incident on Wa Island very quickly..."
The woman smiled calmly:
"I'm not afraid of him. As for you... since you're here, don't leave. Just be my subordinate!"
As he spoke, without any sign of preparation, a tree root suddenly broke out of the ground and instantly wrapped around Xia Xingbu's body. Ignoring his resistance, it spit out sap, which turned into a white curtain that wrapped around Xia Xingbu's body layer by layer.
In the blink of an eye, Xia Xingbu was like a bug wrapped in a spider cocoon, wrapped tightly from head to toe, hanging on the tree root...
