Chapter 194 Gathering Wood

Because of the fight of the four yin heroes, Xia and his party inadvertently broke into the underground cave where the bones of Zheshu were placed. The tragedy of 20 years ago was confirmed, and everyone's mood was different.

And with Yao'er's surprise call, Xia and other people were all surrounded by surprise. Yaoer's eyes lit up and stared at a half-man tall tree without blinking. The small tree has dried up and blackened, and even some places have rotted, and there is no leaf in the bare. It's like just experienced a winter.

Several people couldn't help twitching the corners of their eyes. It was such an inconspicuous tree. No one would pay attention to it when it was usually left on the roadside. Yaoer actually said it as a treasure.

Xia's heart was half cold, and she looked at Yaoer angrily. "I thought you had found something good. It turned out to be perfunctory to us!"

"That's right, Miss Yaoer, you have successfully cheated us."

"I was accidentally excited just now, and I was almost scared out of my urine." ......

Xia Xiaonan smiled, shook his head, and said nothing more. Seeing that several people were disappointed one by one, Yaoer frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "It's really a baby. I didn't lie to you."

Jing Xia is angry and funny. What kind of treasure can a tree that is about to rot? "Okay, Yaoer, I don't think there's anything here. Let's go out early! The dead are big. It's not good to disturb the Lord of Zheshu City here.

"Well, something that doesn't have eyes." Yao'er was a little unhappy. She stared at Xia fiercely, and then asked, "Have you ever seen a tree grow in the underground world? Moreover, Zhe Shu has been dead for 20 years. Why is this tree only a small part rotten without taking care of it?

Everyone suddenly said that ordinary plants must photocoly work with sunlight to grow. It's really strange to appear here. Jiang Xia couldn't help carefully observing the small tree in front of him.

Although the trees are short, they are as thick as bowls, and the fine trunks are crisscrossed. If you look carefully, the branches are densely spread with various lines. Unlike the lines of ordinary trees, the lines of this tree look like some strange runes.

"What a strange tree." Jiang Xia muttered, and finally felt that the things in front of him were a little unusual.

"Hmm." Yaoer snorted with dissatisfaction.

Jing Xia couldn't help but be stunned. He touched his nose and said with a smile, "Yaoer, what kind of treasure is this little tree?"

Yao'er's beautiful eyes turned, shook her head, and looked confused, "I don't know! Isn't this a broken tree?"

"Me?"

Seeing that Xia was stunned, the four yin heroes and Xia Xiaodong all cast gloating eyes. Xia Xiaonan also smiled, thought for a little, and opened his red lips gently. "I seem to have heard my grandfather talk about this kind of tree. I don't know if it's called "Julingmu."

"Huh? Do you know? Yao'er stretched her eyebrows and was a little surprised. On the other side, the other party is the young lady of the Xia family, and it is not surprising to know this.

From Yao'er's reaction, it can basically be confirmed that Xia Xiaonan guessed correctly. Jiang Xia asked, "What kind of treasure is this gathering wood? Is it on the list of artifacts?

"That's not true." Xia Xiaonan shook his head, "The function of this gathering of spiritual wood is to gather the power between heaven and earth, and then absorb it for the warriors to improve the speed of cultivation."

Jing Xia couldn't help blurt out, "Isn't that similar to the emperor's stone?"

"The two do have something in common, but the gathering wood cannot be compared with the emperor stone. The emperor's stone can produce a continuous stream of force. The gathering of spiritual wood has to be done every once in a while, and it has its own life cycle. It must be raised by the warriors with force, otherwise it will slowly wither.

"So that's it." After Xia Xiaonan's explanation, the gap between Xia's gathering wood and the emperor's stone was still very large. After all, the emperor stone does not need to absorb the power between heaven and earth. And the gathering wood needs to be absorbed for a period of time to provide strength to people. You can tell which is stronger or weaker at once.

"Look at this gathering wood, it should be dead!" As Hong Jun said, he leaned his face up and tried to smell the branches with his nose.

Yao'er pushed Hong Jun away directly, "Who said that this gathering tree is dead? I said it was alive.

"Ef?" Everyone was stunned and looked at each other with doubts. Jiang Xia shook his head helplessly, stepped forward and whispered, "Yaoer, if you have anything to say, say it quickly!" Wasn't it okay if it was my fault just now?"

"Then do you dare to say that I lied to you?"

"I dare not." Jiang Xia answered honestly and thought secretly. Obviously, everyone suspected that she was a liar. Why was she only angry with herself? This woman's mind still needed to be pondered.

Only then did Yaoer show a satisfied look, "Okay! For the sake of your careful recognition of your mistakes, I will add a little insight to this local steamed bun. The voice paused and walked to the side of the gathering stone. "Although this gathering wood cannot be compared with the emperor stone, it is one point that it is stronger than the emperor stone."

"Oh?" Several people's eyes lit up and cheered up one after another.

"The point that the gathering of the spirit wood is stronger than the emperor's stone is that it will absorb more powerfully than the emperor's stone every once in a while. I'll make a very simple metaphor. Both of them are ordinary nine-level warriors. One absorbs the power in the emperor's stone, and the other absorbs the power of the gathering wood. After ten days, the latter may be a half-step martial king, and the former may still be a nine-level martial artist.

"Really?"

"Hmm!" Yaoer nodded affirmatively, "But every time Julingmu provides strength, its cooling time will be relatively long, especially for the strong above Emperor Wu, it is a drop in the bucket, and the supply is in short supply, so although this Julingmu is magical, the difference between it and the artifact is still stretched."

Jianxia looked puzzled and asked puzzledly, "Yaoer, according to what you said, only the gathered wood after absorption can help us improve our strength, but I can't feel a trace of power fluctuation from this tree. It's been 20 years. It should have withered!" The four yin heroes also nodded and echoed.

"Tubaozi." Yaoer scolded softly that she knew more about Julingmu than Xia Xiaonan. This gathering wood still has a trace of vitality. As for the reason why it has not withered for 20 years, it should be that after its spiritual power of heaven and earth is saturated, no one will absorb it, so it is supported by the forces it absorbs.

"Then can't it absorb and support itself at the same time?"

Jing Xia said shamelessly again, Yaoer hated it so much that she was a little crazy and scolded in a delicate voice, "Why are you so stupid? Xiaonan just said that there must be martial artists to raise it with force. Now it has been 20 years, and it is very good not to wither completely.

Being scolded by Yao'er, Xia Xiaonan and Xia Xiaodong all held back their smiles. Jiang Xia spared his head and giggled, "Hey hey, Yaoer, there are so many people, save me some face!"

Seeing her embarrassment, Yaoer couldn't help laughing. The other people also couldn't hold back and burst into laughter. Several people laughed happily, which made Xia depressed alone.

"Cough!" Yaoer stopped smiling, squeezed her little mouth gently, and then stretched out her slender white jade hand in front of Xia, "Give me the emperor's stone."

"Emp? Why do you want the emperor's stone? Although Jiang Xia asked, she still reached out to take out the emperor's stone in her clothes. Several people stopped immediately, and everyone knew that Xia had won the champion of the Summoner Competition and got the fragments of the Emperor's Stone. But I've never seen it before.

"Well, I want to try to let Julingmu absorb the power of the emperor's stone and see how it works?" Yaoer said what she thought. Gathering wood and emperor stone, one is to absorb power, and the other is to make power. This just forms a special hub. If you can use the gathering wood to pull out the power of the emperor's stone, there may be an unexpected gain.

When Xia handed over the emperor stone to Yao'er's hands, everyone was obviously stunned. Xia Xiaonan and Xia Xiaodong knew something about this, and the latter couldn't help asking, "Isn't there only a quarter of the beast taming sect? How can this be so big?

"Hey hey." Jiang Xia grinned and didn't explain much. Get a quarter in the Yuncheng School and a quarter in the Summoner Competition. If the two are combined, it will naturally be big.

The four yin heroes didn't feel any difference. The four of them had only heard of the emperor's stone and had never seen it at all. Even if Xia took out a stone casually, they would not doubt anything.

The emperor's stone exuded a strong golden light, and the warm touch was transmitted from above. Yao's pretty face became a little solemn, and her beautiful eyes flashed firm. Immediately, her hands were folded. The emperor's stone was suspended in front of it, buzzing.

Under the surprised eyes of several people, Yaoer controlled the emperor's stone to separate a trace of golden light rushing to the gathering wood, and the soft golden light surrounded the gathering wood like sunshine. The next second, something unbelievable happened.

The gathering wood, which had no vitality just now, suddenly trembled, and the strange runes on the branches flashed brightly, and then the golden light emitted by the emperor stone integrated into the gathering wood.

Yaoer was overjoyed, and her palms changed a few postures. The emperor's stone slowly left the place, and finally suspended directly above the gathering wood. Suddenly, the emperor's stone was golden, and the whole cave was illuminated like the day. And the gathering wood is like a hungry beggar, shaking the branches and greedily absorbing the rich golden spiritual power.

Xia and others are a little sluggish, and more surprising things are yet to come. The runes on the trunk of the Juling wood became brighter and brighter. The originally dry branches slowly rejuvenated. On the bare branches, new leaves began to grow. The green crystal clear, like green jade.

"It's amazing." Jiang Xia shook his head and couldn't help exclaiming. Xia Xiaonan, Xia Xiaodong and the four yin heroes also looked shocked.

Yao'er gently pinched Xia, blinked her big eyes, and looked very cute. Jiang Xia pinched the other party's delicate little face, nodded and smiled.

After a while, the gathering wood became vibrant, and every leaf was full of vitality. Then tiny white dots floated out of the leaves, like flying fireflies.

Just as everyone was surprised, Yaoer quickly reminded, "Those light spots are the spiritual power of heaven and earth. Don't be stunned! Sit down quickly and absorb these forces to improve your strength.
