Chapter 299 The Immortal Tree
"Maybe it's been too long." Liu Shan said to comfort him.

It was just an old ape, and its body disappeared directly. It seemed that it was not the owner of the cave, but just the guardian beast of the mountain.

The physical body dissipated, leaving only bones, which showed that his cultivation level before death was probably only at the level of a king.

It definitely won't be the ancient saints. The ancient saints' bodies can last forever without being destroyed by external forces. Their golden bodies are immortal and will not dissipate directly even if time passes.

After hearing Liu Shan's speculation, Princess Yudie's beautiful eyes were filled with excitement.

A cave of an ancient saint, the collection inside is definitely extraordinary, there may be fragments of the ancient scriptures of the great emperor, or at least the inheritance of the ancient scriptures of the saints.

The sunset glowed as they walked along the white jade steps until they came to an open area again.

There are actually many jade trees here. Although they are only half a meter high, they are all shining brightly. Their colors are different. Some are like red agate, some are green like emerald, and some emit golden light.

"Could it be the legendary immortal tree?" Princess Yudie turned her beautiful eyes to Liu Shan and guessed.

After careful counting, there are a total of forty-nine trees here, and these jade trees were all planted on the ground veins, not carved.

Legend has it that in ancient times there was a strong man who grew this kind of jade tree. It is a naturally generated peerless magical object. With a light brush, it can brush away all things and nothing can break it.

Walking among the jade trees, they are like coiled dragons, with their roots all rooted in the jade veins underground. Their arrangement is not random, but like interwoven Taoist patterns, mysterious and complex, like a mysterious ancient formation.

"There are fifty great ways, forty-nine are derived from heaven, and one is missing." Liu Shan muttered to himself, his eyes constantly searching for the legendary immortal tree.

Liu Shan's eyes flickered. Although he knew long ago that this immortal tree had not completely evolved successfully, the branch that had successfully transformed also had endless magical power and was a naturally grown holy weapon.

Taking mysterious steps and walking along the path, Liu Shan finally found a strange jade tree.

"What a pity, it failed." Princess Yudie also followed Liu Shan and saw the fiftieth jade tree that had become dry and dull.

Liu Shan smiled and was not disappointed, because although the jade tree was dry as a whole, there was a branch that still had a faint glow. It was obvious that it still retained its vitality and had endless magical uses.

Afterwards, under Princess Yudie's envious gaze, Liu Shan plucked off the remaining branch of the Immortal Wonderful Tree. She did not feel the slightest bit of jealousy in her heart. After all, she had obtained the spiritual milk before, and the effect was more helpful to her.

The two left the jade forest and moved forward again, entering an ancient cave that was filled with bottles and jars.

"It's the cave where precious elixirs are stored!" Princess Yudie said excitedly.

But Liu Shan was not interested at all. After so many years, the elixirs had all turned into medicinal mud, and these pills certainly could not be preserved.

Sure enough, Princess Yudie excitedly opened a jade bottle, and found that all the pills inside had deteriorated and turned into dregs.

"How could this happen?" Princess Yudie, unwilling to give up, opened the other medicine bottles one after another, and there was no surprise.

Liu Shan walked among the white jade medicine racks, constantly looking at the scattered jade bottles, until he saw a colorful gourd, he showed a hint of curiosity.

"Nine-turn Immortal Pill?" Liu Shan raised his eyebrows as he recited the ancient words on the gourd. Could it be the kind refined by the Emperor?

After opening the gourd, it was indeed empty. Liu Shan was not disappointed. After all, if the Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill really turned into dregs before his eyes, he would only be more heartbroken.

Liu Shan searched the ancient cave carefully again, hoping to find the method of refining the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, but unfortunately he found nothing. It seemed that there was no such thing here, and there was only a glimmer of hope in the deepest part.

The two of them headed deeper into the cave again. There was a faint murderous aura ahead. Liu Shan and Princess Yudie looked at each other and wondered in their hearts, could it be that there was a place ahead where weapons and magic treasures were stored?

Sure enough, in an empty ancient cave, there was a treasure with a dreamy divine light flowing, floating in the void, beautiful and brilliant.

Princess Yudie's eyes were filled with excitement. After so many years, the Taoist weapon that had been preserved must be the legendary holy weapon!
In the ancient cave, there are forty or fifty treasures scattered on the ground, like a arsenal, but they cannot withstand the baptism of time and have lost their luster.

Soon, Princess Yudie reluctantly turned her gaze away from the bronze lamp in front of her that was emitting nine-colored divine light.

There is only one holy weapon, which must belong to Liu Shan. After all, she came here to take advantage of the opportunity. She is very smart and knows how to control her greed.

Liu Shan did not act pretentiously, and directly transformed into a big hand to grab the bronze lamp. Without the nourishment of divine power, even the handed-down holy weapon fell into a deep sleep. Without resistance, Liu Shan easily took the holy weapon into his body. After going out, he only needed to slowly warm it up, and it could emit holy power again.

Having gained a lot along the way, Liu Shan and the others became even more curious about the rare treasures in the deeper parts of the ancient cave.

They set out again and soon stopped. Not far from the Hyogo Ancient Cave, there was another cave.

This place is extremely clean, tidy, even simple. There are no shining strange stones like those in the outside world, but it is not dark inside. There is a soft glow on the bright walls, and in the middle there is a figure sitting cross-legged in the void, motionless, with a ruddy face, as if he is asleep.

Liu Shan and Princess Yudie approached carefully and explored with their spiritual sense. There was not a trace of divine power fluctuation in the figure, and the soul had dissipated. Only a living body remained.

"It seems that he is the master of this place!" Princess Yudie sighed. Even the legendary saints could only die here silently. What should they, the monks who have not even reached the immortal platform, do in the future?

Liu Shan ignored Princess Yudie's sigh and walked straight forward, wanting to find out if this ancient saint had left any inheritance.

A flash of divine light directly blocked Liu Shan's investigation.

Unexpectedly, this ancient saint directly placed a ban to prevent future generations from touching his body.

Liu Shan watched with a frown. Now that the ancient saint was sealed inside, he had no way of getting close. He could only use the holy weapon to destroy it, but that would inevitably destroy his physical body.

Not long after, Liu Shan no longer had to worry about it. Divine light shot out in the cave, and rays of light scattered down and gathered in the center, forming a light curtain covered with tiny ancient characters.

It turned out that this ancient saint left some methods behind before his death, and he left his inheritance directly in the cave.

In order to prevent future generations from destroying his body, if they directly touch the restriction without forcibly destroying it, the inheritance will be automatically triggered.

Of course, if he obtains the inheritance and continues to destroy the restrictions, the ancient sage will be helpless. After all, his restrictions are extraordinary and cannot be broken without a supreme king or a holy soldier.

However, even if a holy soldier monk or a supreme king took action, he would have been dead, and there would be nothing he could do with other means.

With his eyes moving, Liu Shan quickly memorized this ancient scripture in his mind.

After reading it, I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. It wasn't an emperor scripture, not even a quasi-emperor scripture. It was just an ordinary inheritance from the Saint King.

Although Liu Shan didn't care, Princess Yudie was extremely surprised. If this ancient scripture was placed in the outside world, it could directly become the foundation of a holy land.

After all, in Zhongzhou now, apart from the four great dynasties, other small countries still have the inheritance of various schools of thought, that is, the ancient scriptures of the sages. At most, some forces have the inheritance of multiple ancient scriptures.

It’s just that Liu Shan was too wealthy. He relied on the prophets and received too much inheritance, so he didn’t take this ancient scripture seriously.

This ancient scripture is by no means useless. It can help monks practice all the way to becoming a saint. It must have its unique features and provide clear guidance for the monks' future path of practice.

Afterwards, Liu Shan and his companions visited many ancient caves again, but after years of baptism, many of the sacred objects were no longer magical. They had all become ordinary objects or even turned into ashes.

Having gained too many benefits in this fairy palace, Liu Shan and the other two decided to withdraw after discussion.

After all, there are still many fairy palaces in the small world, and there should be many magical objects. There is no need to keep wasting time on this saint's cave.

The two returned along the original route and came to the outside of the ancient cave. They saw the ancient divine tiger still guarding the entrance of the cave, pacing back and forth, with a look of anxiety in its eyes.

"What's the matter?" A voice came into the ancient divine tiger's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Roar"

Seeing the two people coming out, the ancient divine tiger immediately roared, and then sent a divine thought into Liu Shan's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Master, there's something wrong with the aura in the Immortal World. Something big might be about to happen!" Liu Shan felt the anxiety from the fluctuations of the divine tiger's mind.
