Chapter 1566: Dead Giant Vine
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
Giant dragons flying while phoenixes dancing in the sky. Cranes hovered in the air, holding ganodermas in their beaks, as white apes politely stood side while carrying trays of fruits.
Clear spring water had been gushing out of the ground, colorful lotuses were swaying in the breeze. Sitting on the seedpods of these lotuses were golden shining people, hands crossed before the chests, wearing pearls and gemstones, chanting chorus.
Priest Hua sat on the tallest, golden lotus, legs crossed, with his fingers locked together. His one forefinger pointed at the sky, while the other forefinger reached to the ground. His entire body glowed with a bright light, and he had also been chanting. Every word he said turned into countless golden transparent petals, drifting everywhere.
This place was a broad valley. Down at the bottom of the valley was a flat grassland. Countless hundreds of meters tall tree giants politely kneeled on the ground, devotedly listening to Priest Hua. Behind these tree giants were an incalculable number of green spirits, kneeling with their foreheads and palms on the ground, listening to Priest Hua with reverence.
The golden petals drifting out of Priest Hua’s mouth had been falling on the bodies of these tree giants and green spirits. Landing on their bodies, every petal would become a pure strand of power of Dao and merge into their bodies. The green power belonging to these tree giants and green spirits was gradually converted into a pure spiritual power of Dao, generated by a secret magic of Priest Hua.
"Master, what you said is ingenious beyond description!" A six-hundred-meters tall tree giant, who was clearly at a higher position than the others, laughed heartily. Suddenly, his bark, which was covered in mosses and vines, split up, then his body shattered bit by bit. Amidst his howls of both pain and happiness, this tree giant trembled. A cyan mist wrapped a water-tank-sized crystal core that rose from his body, spun in the air, and turned into a priest in a green robe.
"Master, I am Mu Cang Cang. Please, mercifully bring me under your guidance. I will be brave and fearless. I am willing to sacrifice my body for the sect!" In his man shape, Mu Cang Cang still had a dense green mist lingering around his face. With large steps, he walked to Priest Hua’s golden lotus, kneeled on the ground, and kowtowed ceaselessly.
Priest Hua smiled delightfully. He felt very proud.
Priest Mu was fighting against Blood Crown, for no other purpose but to buy time for Priest Hua to peacefully develop their sect in this world. Priest Hua had chanted in this valley for days, and finally, a tree was enlightened.
"Good, stand by my side, stay calm, and stay focused!" Priest Hua mildly grinned to Mu Cang Cang, then pointed his finger at Mu Cang Cang’s head. A golden lotus flew out of his fingertip, entering into Mu Cang Cang’s body. Along with the golden lotus, a scripture created especially for plant lives merged with Mu Cang Cang’s soul, gifting him the power and cultivation which might require thousands, even tens of thousands of years of effort for him to attain independently.
Mu Cang Cang hurrahed, kowtowed to Priest Hua for a few more times, then politely stood by his golden lotus.
Priest Hua’s eyes shone dazzlingly as he continued lecturing about his great Dao of evolvement. This time, a beautiful female green spirit chuckled while a cloud of mist rose from her head, with a water-like transparent lotus halfway bloomed in it.
The green spirit was overjoyed. She ran to Priest Hua’s golden lotus and kneeled. Seeing her, Priest Hua laughed out loud, then hurriedly gifted her the scripture and sent a strand of power into her forehead, telling her to also stand by his side.
Time passed, and on listening to Priest Hua, more and more tree giants turned into priests in green robes, while more and more green spirits had clouds of mist rising from their heads.
As the number of new disciples stood by Priest Hua’s side nearly reached ten-thousand, Priest Hua’s eye corners twitched.
"Eh? Why did the great Dao of Pan Heng world suddenly quake? It’s not because the invasion of the non-humankind. On the contrary...it was like Pan Gu world without Buzhou Mountain. Why does the steady and regular great Dao circulation seem to be disordered slightly?"
"Does this world have a core, like Buzhou Mountain to Pan Gu world? Which powerful being stole it? Other than my brother and the one he is fighting against, did anyone else come to this world?"
Priest Hua frowned, ran a rough calculation with his fingers, but failed to gain any result after a long while. This was Pan Heng world, not Pan Gu world, which he was familiar with. He faintly sensed the source of the disordered Dao of nature, but he had no way to find out who exactly caused the abnormal disorderliness.
Wielding his sleeve, Priest Hua left a lotus seed clone continue his lecture, while he shifted his shape into a cyan crane and quietly flew into the sky, swiftly towards the core of the Pan Heng world, leaving a green beam of light.
In the sealed area, Ji Hao followed Green Ginseng and the other green ancestors, proceeding along for quite a while. Finally, he saw a dark, enormous mountain range in the front.
This mountain range extended for incalculable miles. The tens of peaks in front of Ji Hao were about twenty-thousand-miles in height, while the shortest branch of this mountain range was seventy to eighty miles long. The peaks of the branch ranges were over a thousand miles tall, and this mountain range had countless branches.
The air in this place was dry and hot, without any moisture. The silver grasses, which could serve as a source of light, had disappeared in this area, because in here, the rich soil was replaced by red, barren desert.
Metal stakes stood on the boundary of the soil and sands, about three meters apart from each other. The exposed part of each human-head-sized metal stake was nearly six-feet-long, thickly embossed with all kinds of weird spell symbols. Ji Hao couldn’t recognize these spell symbols, but he sensed a fierce power of destruction from them.
The barren desert surrounded this enormous mountain range. A large number of metal stakes were nailed on the edge of the desert, all connected, composing a powerful sealing formation that firmly caged the mountain range.
About ten green ancestors stood outside worryingly as they looked at the giant mountain range in the formation.
Ji Hao again opened his eyes of Dao. As the dim blue light sparkled in his eyes, his heart missed a beat because of what he saw. This ’mountain range’ with an immeasurable size was actually a tremendous vine, and the ’branch’ ranges were growing from it.
What numbed Ji Hao’s scalp was that the vine and all its branches were thickly covered in round-shaped mouthparts, and every mouthpart was filled with dark-green, sharp teeth.
The vine was in sleep, but occasionally, some of its mouthparts would squirm slightly, clanging the teeth together and starting dazzling sparkles, along with deafening shrill noises.
What a ferocious creature!
Ji Hao had never seen something so evil-looking and weird before.
So gigantic! Was this Pan Heng’s body? Ji Hao glanced at Green Ginseng and the other green ancestors and thought. Indeed, these green ancestors were barely enough to fill Pan Heng’s tooth gaps. The largest mouthpart Ji Hao found on this vine could swallow tens of mountains at one time.
"So this is Pan Heng!" murmured Ji Hao, "Where did he hide the axe?"
