Chapter 45 Shuren
In the Crystal Frost World, a giant silver tree is floating in layers of dazzling light. The roots are clearly visible. Although it is far away, it is at least tens of thousands of meters high by visual inspection. Layers of crystal frost are connected to the crown of the tree. All kinds of colorful lights glow like a fantasy.

Both of them were attracted by the spectacle in front of them, wondering if this was a dream?
"Hello, visitors from afar, I am the master here, Hengbo." Suddenly a voice seemed to sound from the top of the two of them, but they didn't realize that there was any life around them, and the sound wave came from the front.

"Don't be surprised, I am the giant tree in front of you. Of course, that's what you humans call it. I have noticed the arrival of the two of you. Hengbo welcomes you."

Both of them were very surprised. Could it be that this giant silver tree is another monster created by Grand Duke Xuanyuan?

"The ice monument standing in front of you is the tombstone of my friend Xuanyuan Yuhe. Unfortunately, even though human beings have been genetically enhanced, they can't break away from the material realm and evolve into energy life, especially the fragile human brain can be protected after thousands of years. It will also die, although human life is like a meteor disappearing, but it is the brightest light in this galaxy, I really miss the days of getting along with him!"

The two of them knew that the [-]-meter tall tree in front of them was actually an intelligent life, but they had never heard of such an intelligent race or civilized species.

The ice monument in front of him was as smooth as a mirror, and only a line of words was engraved on the bottom base: "Let the merits and demerits be judged by future generations. The monument is silent, and the beauty tears, and there is no trace of passing away."

After reading the tombstone, Yi Shuihan also sighed in his heart. The royal power is bloodied, and the scepter is ruthless. Regardless of whether Xuanyuan Yuhe is a hero or a hero, they have all been submerged in the torrent of history. Most of the deeds that people know are fabricated.

Kissinger smiled, and sent a heartfelt message to Yi Shuihan, "Grand Duke Xuanyuan is really powerful, and nothing is written on the tombstone, but there is a majestic intelligent life here, which means that he is more respectful of the Grand Duke. He really doesn't need to write anything, who wouldn't praise him just by looking at this tree? The monument without words can only fool a child like you!"

Yi Shuihan thought it made sense, so he smiled, he really hadn't thought of this level, a fat man is always a fat man, so he pretended to be noble even though he was playing tricks.

Unknowingly, Yi Shuihan has drawn closer to the Grand Duke Xuanyuan who was thousands of years ago. By uncovering layers of veils in the tomb, Yi Shuihan began to learn to appreciate the "dead fat man" in his heart.

The sound wave from the giant tree said again: "You two, we are too far away. You should come to me and talk about it. My friend entrusted me with something, and I will abide by the agreement and finish it."

Suddenly, Yi Shuihan and Kissinger felt the ground tremble, and then the distance between them and the silver-white giant tree rapidly narrowed.

It turned out that the place where the two were standing and the thousand-meter-high ice tablet were on a root of the giant tree, but the root was too huge for the two of them to notice.

The giant tree moved its roots like a giant retracting its arms. The two of them felt the howling of the wind. They got under the tree in a blink of an eye, and only found that the silver giant tree was bigger than the result of visual inspection. The two of them were too small, and the giant The roots of the tree are particularly dense and seem to extend endlessly.

Numerous palm-sized rhombic ice crystals in the sky seem to have wings and fly in a specific order, and the huge tree in front of you looks closely, almost full of such palm-sized rhombic ice crystals, which reflect the light and are very beautiful. And the vines on those trees are more like diamond-encrusted works of art. If there was a woman here, I'm afraid they would have jumped on them screaming.

"You two must be very strange to me and this environment, so please allow me to introduce my own background and the entrustment of little friend Xuanyuan."

Next, Yi Shuihan and Kissinger began to listen to the giant tree's self-narration.

"My race has long since ceased to exist in this galaxy. The ancient civilization was born almost along with the birth of the galaxy. There is a name called Constant Wave. I am probably the last creature of the Constant Wave civilization in the galaxy, so I use the name of Hengbo to commemorate the lost companions.

Maybe some companions have gone to other galaxies, but to cross the eternal darkness and the dangers on the road, it will take great courage and wisdom, and I have no hope for this.

At first we were very similar to human beings, but with the collapse of mechanical civilization, we sought longevity and finally evolved into energy bodies. It took about a billion years for the entire race to evolve into energy tree life forms. Now it seems that we can only talk about our path Going wrong, because we feel that we can almost live as long as the universe, and there is no need to continue the spark of life by procreating offspring. As long as there is energy, we will survive.

Let's call us Treants, because we too evolved from human-like beings.In the galaxy, although the tree people are far away, they are not alone, because we exchange information and knowledge with each other every 10 years, even if our distant companions can receive information for a million years, because our Life is too long, and it is normal to say a few words in a million years.

In this way, when the companions were chatting in the galaxy, a group of evil creatures came out of nowhere. They also possessed high-end evolution. They were a kind of half-material and half-energy life. They looked a bit like insects. They only plundered life energy everywhere. When we found us tree people, we found the best food. Unfortunately, the disaster of tree people began from then on.

Those worms tracked the information we sent to each other, and found us one by one in the galaxy. No one was spared. In this way, the constant wave civilization was shattered. At that time, all civilizations in the galaxy were destroyed by the greed of those worms. As for I don't know how they retreated, because I was the one farthest away from them among the treants, so I was lucky to have time to seal my core in a piece of ice that has been billions of years old, forcing myself to fall into an endless dormancy.

It was my friend Xuanyuan Yuhe who discovered me. He was still so young at the time. I followed him through the galaxy and searched for traces of his companions, but found nothing. They should have been destroyed.

When he accomplished his great deeds, he did not forget my friend. In order to bring me back to life, he found a strange star body with six connected stars as my residence. These six stars did not exist in the Milky Way during the period of constant wave civilization. , I am much older than most planets.

However, a new problem appeared. Because the seal in the ice has caused my energy core to mutate, I have to absorb cosmic energy through the ice. Fortunately, there is enough energy in my residence, and my friend helped again. I got a lot of water elements for me, and with my meager energy at that time, I only made an ice ball with a radius of a few kilometers.

However, there is no shortage of energy around me, and I quickly recovered my vitality, combining the free hydrogen and oxygen particles in the universe into water and ice, forming an energy cycle.

The ice crystals around you all carry my energy information. They are my energy carriers. When little friend Xuanyuan found me again, he had become the current constant wave star. At that time, he was very sad and tired. Please leave me one thing.

He told me that someone might come here after his death, and he left clues to attract guests, and if anyone holds the items he left behind, they need to present them to me.Then the two of you should take out the key, there can only be one opener of the Fall. "

Yi Shuihan took out the Pandora Alloy from the Dimensional Ring, and said loudly into the air: "I am the one who came after the clues. Although I don't know what the Opener of Fall is, I am ready to meet the challenge."

"Okay, young man, you have the courage, give it to me." After finishing speaking, a thin vine stretched out.

Yi Shuihan raised the Pandora Alloy, wrapped the slender vines around it, and lifted it into the air.

The Pandora alloy in the air was suddenly crushed by the vines, and with a "poof", it became a cloud of black mist, and then the cloud of black mist was guided by the vines to fly forward.

At the same time, the tree man erected its roots, and the cloud of mist directly hit the tombstone of Grand Duke Xuanyuan.

The ice monument began to crack, but it fell without any damage. The mist separated into eight strands and wound up like an octopus. A gray light appeared in the center of the ice monument, and then turned into a rich black. An oval secret door was formed in the center of the ice monument, and circles of ripples fluctuated from the outside to the inside, indicating that the inside was not simple.

"The Sinking Dimension is open, and there is the legacy left by Xuanyuan inside. Young people, if you step into this door, there will be no chance of turning back. Do you think it's worth it?"

Tightening his clothes, Yi Shuihan said: "There is nothing worth it. In order to realize a wish and find someone, I must become stronger. See you later!"

Tiptoeing lightly, Yi Shuihan confidently flew towards the ice monument. What kind of perdition is hidden behind that dark color?
