King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 209 The Sick World Tree
"The world...forgot me."

A vague female voice echoed in the darkness.It's more like a dying murmur than a warning to outsiders.

"You...who are you?" The roots of the golden tree extended into the darkness of the tree's root system.Those dark things were like moths that saw the bonfire and swarmed towards its roots.

The Golden Tree felt that its roots were instantly covered with countless ants, which were constantly eroding its skin, trying to dye the gold in it black.

But they were doomed to be in vain, as the unchanging properties of the golden tree came into play.No matter how these dark things squirm, the appearance of the golden tree remains unchanged.

Eternal gold can still shine brightly amidst taboos.

The golden tree saw no reaction from the big tree in front of it, so it took a step further.This time the golden tree is not as simple as stretching into the darkness.

Its roots became sharp and pierced directly through the decaying skin of the tree.

Suddenly, a familiar feeling was transmitted to the golden tree through its roots.That was the feeling it had just experienced, the feeling of countless information flowing around it.

But this time the feeling was more intense than the previous one in the pure white space.Even if the golden tree does not actively absorb the information flowing in it, there are still pictures pouring into it through the turbulent flow of information.

The previously pure white space was like a calm ocean, where countless information was stored, calm and quiet.

But this is not the case with the information inside the big tree. They are like swift rivers, flowing endlessly inside the big tree.

The golden tree felt this scene, and something in its blood became loose.Then it understood many things.

The pure white space is the transfer station, while the big tree is the processing and storage of information.

The responsibilities of this big tree are somewhat similar to the mission given to the Golden Tree by the Supreme Will.

But there are more golden tree tubes.

The golden tree is the executor of the law. The law determines the rules of the border area. What is life?What is death?What is a favor?What is a curse?

The law will stipulate them, and the purpose of the golden tree's existence is to run the world according to the law.

So after going deep into this big tree, the shackles in the golden tree's bloodline were broken.

It felt the huge trees processing countless information in front of it, and there was a throbbing in its heart.

A loud and irresistible sound began to echo within the golden tree.

"Replace this tree and let yourself run the world!"

"Replace this tree and let yourself run the world!"

"Instead, Xiao Huang, I'll turn off the speaker for you."

Amidst the grand and emotionless command, the voice of embers suddenly appeared.Then the voice that just came from the depths of the bloodline stopped echoing.

"Really, how come this old guy doesn't know how to adapt at all? He doesn't even have laws, so he just takes the lead in running the world?"

The sound of Ember complaining came.It can only be said that the Golden Tree is worthy of being a creation of the Supreme Will, and the sound coming from the bloodline is a perfect replica of the voice of the Supreme Will.

On the ground not knowing how far away from the big tree, Ember was squatting on the branches of the golden tree.He pressed his palms against the slightly golden bark of the golden tree, as if he was feeling something.

"Haha, I finally found it!" Yi Yan's body paused, and through the roots of the golden tree, he also saw the huge tree buried deep under the earth and growing upside down.

If Yi Yan guessed correctly, it was probably that the World Tree had not escaped.

"What did you find?" Lisa looked at the half-crouched ember and asked impatiently.

Ember had told her before about his purpose of planting the golden tree, and coupled with the tremor that had just come from the earth and Ember's behavior, Lisa already had a guess in her mind. "Hey, Lisa, you guessed it right." Ember stood up from the ground, then clapped his hands and said, "The World Tree has been found!"

"Phew! It's not for nothing that I made such a big fuss, I've finally found it!" Yu Yan said, pretending to wipe the non-existent sweat on his forehead.

"World Tree..., found it?" Lisa was a little silent when she heard this. She had stayed in Xumi.Know the price the Sumeru people paid to see the World Tree.

The Xumi Order Academy has the most complete knowledge in the entire continent because they can perceive the World Tree through a special method.

Scholars will imprint knowledge from the World Tree and then store it in the Void Terminal.

But the price is madness and no more enterprising spirit.

This is also the reason why Lisa chose to leave the Order.Looking at it, most of Xumi's so-called "scholars" are just scribes of World Tree, not to mention that not using this kind of scribes will lead to madness.

Lisa thought of the crazy scholars in the Order Academy, who would eventually be sent to Aru Village to spend the rest of their lives in the yellow sand and barrenness.

She looked at the embers jumping up and down again. The World Tree didn't seem to have any impact on him.

"It's really..., incomparable!" Lisa smiled, not sure whether she was laughing at herself or at the Apostolic Order.

But soon, she regained her composure and asked Ember: "What happens next? Don't tell me that you made such a big fuss just to see the World Tree."

"After that?" After hearing this, Yi Jin touched his chin, waved his hand and said, "Of course it's to cure the disease!"

"And it seems that the World Tree is quite ill." After saying that, Yi Yan added as if with emotion.

This world tree is really strong, and it is still holding on even after being sick for so long.If he hadn't had anything on hand, Ember would have given it a "Moving Teyvat" medal.

"World Tree? Can it also get sick?" Ying asked curiously after hearing Yu Yan's sigh.A thing like the World Tree, which sounds so big at first glance, can still get sick?
"Before today, I didn't think World Tree would get sick, but now..." Lisa looked at Ember, who was thinking about something, and continued: "I'm a little convinced. As for why it's sick, I'm afraid I have to ask the little fool ”

"Hmm..., it looks to me like it has been contaminated by forbidden knowledge. The heart of the tree is so dark that it is almost rotting."

Yi Yan lowered his head, his eyes passed through countless obstacles, and finally saw the scene that the golden tree saw.

The darkness is still working hard to erode the golden tree, and more forbidden knowledge pours from the heart of the tree, seemingly determined not to give up.

"Then we have to save it quickly. The World Tree should be very important, right?" Pamon said anxiously after hearing Ember say that the heart of the World Tree was starting to rot.

The name World Tree sounds like something very important. If you leave it alone, God knows what will happen.

There are still many delicious things in Paimon that I haven’t tried yet!

"Well, it's very important." Abedo also came over at this time.

"The World Tree is the source of the earth's veins, and everything that once existed on the earth will gather here. If something happens to it..." Abedo paused, as if he was thinking about how to organize his words.

"What will happen? Abedo, please tell me!" Paimon saw Abedo pause at the important moment and felt something scratching in his heart.

"There will be many Qiuqiu people coming out to beat up Paimon!" Lisa took over the words and said as if it was a joke.

"Wow! How scary!" Paimon suddenly retreated behind Ying. Although Qiuqiu looked thin, he was ferocious.If they were to punch him, Paimon's small body might not be able to withstand it.

But Paimon soon reacted. She looked at the smiling Lisa and asked in surprise: "Lisa, why are you still smiling? The World Tree is about to fall ill, shouldn't you be worried? "

"How should I put it? By the way, there is an old saying that when the sky falls, there is a tall one to hold it up. Don't we have the tallest one here?" Lisa had a smile on her lips. She felt this sentence for the first time. It's so true.

Then she saw Ember, who was drinking something. There were a bunch of bottles and cans scattered around him.
