Chapter 2558 - 2558 Demon Vanquishing Tree

2558 Demon Vanquishing Tree

“Who is it? Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, is that you?”

Han Fei was shocked. The only one that could discover him when he appeared with his black-mist body must be the Demon Vanquishing Tree.

After all, he had been discovered by the unconscious roots of the Demon Vanquishing Tree from the beginning.

The voice was silent for a long time, as if recalling the name of the Demon Vanquishing Tree. After a long while, it replied, “Who are you? How do you know the existence of the Demon Vanquishing Tree?”

Han Fei immediately said, “Well… I’m a good friend of the Emperor Yuan. Do you know him? Uh…”

While chatting with it, Han Fei asked the old turtle in his Origin Star, “Old Yuan, come on, tell me your real name. I met the Demon Vanquishing Tree. He asked me who I was. How should I answer him? Tell me your name.”

The old turtle said in shock, “The Demon Vanquishing Tree is still here?”

Han Fei asked, “Cut the crap. What’s your real name?”

The old turtle said, “Yuan, Yuan Biao! Why don’t you let me out? I’ll talk to him.”

However, Han Fei gave him no response.

Outside, Han Fei said, “Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, you had once met Emperor Yuan, Yuan Biao, right? Old Yuan once said that he was good friends with Great Monarch Mystic Martial. You know this, right?”

Han Fei thought to himself, The old turtle can’t be lying about this, right? After all, before he came, he had already guessed that the Demon Vanquishing Tree might still be here. Besides, Old Yuan had said that he had once met the Demon Vanquishing Tree. In any case, they are old acquaintances, so he wouldn’t attack me.

However, the Demon Vanquishing Tree replied, “No, I don’t know him.”

“Huh!”

Han Fei was dumbfounded. This damn Old Yuan is bragging again! Why did he brag to me about such an important matter?!

However, in the next moment, the Demon Vanquishing Tree said, “Although I’m the Demon Vanquishing Tree, I’m no longer the one that followed Great Monarch Mystic Martial. To be precise, I’m the great-grandson of that Demon Vanquishing Tree.”

“Huh?”

Han Fei was stunned for a moment. He rolled his eyes and said, “How can that be? Old Yuan said that Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree can survive until now! Besides, he used to be in charge of Puppet City. Why did he leave? And why are you guarding Puppet City?”

When Han Fei said “Puppet City”, the Demon Vanquishing Tree, who was about to attack, immediately put away his killing intent. He didn’t expect that in this era, there was still someone who could mention the name “Puppet City”.

Since the visitor knew that this was Puppet City, knew that Puppet City was controlled by the Demon Vanquishing Tree, and knew that the Demon Vanquishing Tree used to follow Great Monarch Mystic Martial, this alone was enough for him to restrain his attacks.

Of course, the Demon Vanquishing Tree wasn’t sure if Han Fei was an enemy or a friend. After all, he couldn’t completely trust Han Fei with just this bit of information.

Besides, he had never heard the name Yuan Biao before. Besides, that person didn’t come at all!

The Demon Vanquishing Tree said, “Human, why did you come to Puppet City a million years later and mention an old friend? Tell me, what’s your purpose?”

Han Fei asked, “Senior, do you really not know Yuan Biao? He used to be a close friend of the Great Monarch Mystic Martial! Now, I’m here because something happened to Old Yuan. But in the past, Old Yuan left some trump cards in Puppet City. Now, he’s here to save his own life. Senior, can you let me in to talk? Old Yuan is in my Origin Star. I can get him to come out to tell you in person. However, if I appear outside this barrier, I will definitely cause a battle. I hope Senior can understand.”

“That person is here?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree was skeptical, but he quickly said, “How can I believe you or that person?”

Han Fei immediately said, “It’s not difficult at all. Old Yuan is a good friend of Great Monarch Mystic Martial. Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s dream was to lay eggs and give birth to many little turtles. She believed that there would always be one of the turtles who could become a god. Is this matter secret enough? Think about it, if he wasn’t very close to Great Monarch Mystic Martial, how could he know such a secret?”

“Well…”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree was a little doubtful, but Great Monarch Mystic Martial had indeed laid a lot of eggs. Some of them hadn’t hatched yet.

But the Demon Vanquishing Tree still asked, “What else?”

In Han Fei’s Origin Star, the old turtle said, “And the Great Monarch Mystic Martial is a woman. Very few people know about this. It just so happens that the former Demon Vanquishing Tree knew about it. Han Fei, you can’t tell others about this!”

“Uh?”

Han Fei rolled his eyes. “Old Yuan! You must be slow-witted after you become a Yang soul. You said that Great Monarch Mystic Martial likes to lay eggs. How can she lay eggs if she is male?”

The old turtle said, “Puff! What are you thinking? Do you think the eggs are really ‘laid’? When one becomes a Great Monarch, he will only choose to leave behind seeds. Egg laying is just an explanation. No one will think that eggs can only be laid by women. It’s just that the turtles maintain their heritage by leaving behind turtle eggs. When it’s the right time, little turtles will break out of their egg shells.”

“Oh, oh! You turtle race is really messy…”

Han Fei didn’t think that this so-called secret could fool the Demon Vanquishing Tree.

Therefore, the corner of Han Fei’s mouth twitched, and he said to the Demon Vanquishing Tree in embarrassment, “Old Yuan said that Great Monarch Mystic Martial is a woman.”

Buzz!

To Han Fei’s surprise, the barrier suddenly trembled, and hundreds of green branches extended out from inside.

Then, a message came to Han Fei’s ears. “Come in and talk.”

“Well…”

Han Fei thought to himself, Is this matter worth being so surprised about? The thinking of turtles is indeed different from that of humans. No matter which race it is, the one who can give birth to a baby is a female. Isn’t this a matter of course? What’s so shocking about this?

But Han Fei was not stupid. Since he had successfully tricked this Demon Vanquishing Tree and could enter Puppet City now, wouldn’t he be a fool if he didn’t enter?

The abnormal movement of the Demon Vanquishing Tree startled the nearby Bloody Hand Mine Devils. They thought that the tree was going to attack them, so they began to escape.

However, this strange movement only lasted for less than two seconds before it ended. Everything returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

What these Bloody Hand Mine Devils didn’t know was that the barrier that they hadn’t been able to enter for millions of years had just been entered by an outsider.

Buzz!

Han Fei, who had entered the spiritual barrier, was also shocked. He had entered so easily?

The moment Han Fei entered the barrier, he saw an ancient tree that reminded him of the Cloud Sea Divine Tree in the Water-Wood World.

Although this ancient tree was not even as big as the Cloud Sea Divine Tree, it looked like a smaller version of the Cloud Sea Divine Tree, about 1% the size of the Cloud Sea Divine Tree.

Even so, the canopy stretched out, covering an area of about five thousand kilometers.

However, there was one thing. The area of the barrier below the Mine Demon Stream was only about a thousand kilometers, but the coverage of the Demon Vanquishing Tree here was so large. The internal and external spaces were clearly inconsistent!

At this moment, Han Fei saw that the leaves of the Demon Vanquishing Branch extended into an unknown place from the void. Han Fei could feel power flowing out of those leaves.

Apart from the Demon Vanquishing Tree, Han Fei could see all kinds of buildings that covered a large area, all the way to the bottom of a city wall.

At the gate of the city, two big words hung high. They were “Puppet City”. When Han Fei glanced at the two words, he felt his soul tremble as if it was expelled by an inexplicable power.

The Demon Vanquishing Tree said, “It’s left by the Great Monarch. You can’t peep at it.”

When the Demon Vanquishing Tree spoke, Han Fei immediately cupped his hands. “I’m Han Fei from the human race. Nice to meet you, Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree.”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree asked leisurely, “Where is the person you mentioned who knew the former Demon Vanquishing Tree and Great Monarch Mystic Martial?”

With a thought from Han Fei, a phantom of mountains and rivers appeared, and the old turtle stepped out of Han Fei’s Origin Star. When the old turtle appeared, he looked around and couldn’t help but sigh. “The buildings are empty! In the past, the outer city of Puppet City was one of the busiest places in the Infinite Mining Area. This traffic is busy and strong masters are everywhere, and countless people stay here. Unfortunately, it’s almost rotten now. However, the Demon Vanquishing Tree is still here. I can’t help but sigh.”

A treeman appeared not far in front of Han Fei and the others. It was in the shape of an ordinary treeman, with a branch stuck diagonally in the top of its head, and its body seemed to have the skin of dead wood.

The treeman looked at the old turtle up and down. “A turtle, with only Yang Soul left… Senior, are you the person who served Great Monarch Mystic Martial with my ancestor?”

The old turtle smiled and said, “There’s no need to test me. Great Monarch Mystic Martial never liked to be served, so no one has ever served her. The Demon Vanquishing Tree in the past wasn’t serving her, but to help her guard the turtle eggs. As for me, Yuan Biao, I went through danger with Great Monarch Mystic Martial when we were young. We supported each other until we reached the Sea Establishment realm. Later, our views didn’t agree, so we parted ways. Therefore, even the Demon Vanquishing Tree in the past wasn’t very familiar with me. We just met a few times.”

Han Fei was a little surprised. The old turtle sounded a little arrogant. Did he really cultivate with Great Monarch Mystic Martial? Then why did he become like this while Mystic Martial became a Great Monarch?

“Hiss ~”

Suddenly, Han Fei was shocked. Wait, Is the old turtle really weak?

Not necessarily. If the old turtle was weak, could he be suppressed in the Godfiend Sea and chained there with countless chains? If he was weak, could he live a million years as he said? If he was weak, could he cultivate with Great Monarch Mystic Martial and reach the Sea Establishment realm together?

Just now, the old turtle said that he and Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s views didn’t agree. If Great Monarch Mystic Martial cultivated to become a Great Monarch through normal means, then the old turtle must have embarked on the path of extreme balance, which was the so-called demonic path. If the old turtle’s talent was similar to Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s, how far had he gone?

At this moment, the old turtle said, “Little Demon Vanquishing, although I’m not as strong as you now, I know a lot about the past. Even if I don’t know your ancestors well, I know some of the past. Come, let me tell you some stories…”
