"What position? Could it be that Fontaine's curse has erupted now?!" The Great Ci Tree King was almost anxious. If this was true, it would be like adding insult to injury.
The problem of the World Tree has not been solved yet, and the curse of Fontaine has come again.
"No, the location of those original fetal sea waters..." Villette took a few deep breaths. He was about to close his eyes to sense the abnormal movements of the fetal sea waters, but he didn't expect that an extremely familiar breath would rush into his mind directly.
"Up there!" He opened his eyes, and before he could finish his words, he saw countless cracks appearing in the pink and white sky.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sky seemed to exist as a substance, like a barrier. What could be more frightening than the sky being a barrier?
That naturally means something is knocking on the door outside the barrier.
"Wait... something outside this world..."
"Uh... maybe not."
Yu Jin waved at the hurried people, signaling them to stay calm.
The thing that was knocking on the sky was not a malicious object from the dark universe, but...
"Boom!"
The pink and white sky was torn open from the outside, and among the stars in the sky, dazzling golden light stretched out from the gap.
The golden and shining surface and the transparent and flawless body, there is no doubt that this is the golden tree that has been motionless before.
So what did it do?
Soon, everyone had the answer.
The roots pushed a blue narwhal into the world, and then the golden tree grabbed the whale's head with one hand and wrapped the whale's tail with the other hand and twisted it in the opposite direction.
"Woo——"
The whale's screams were heartbreaking.
Chapter 741: There is always room for improvement
2024-06-26
"Woo——"
A long, heart-wrenching cry sounded in the air, and the whale, tightly entangled by the golden tree, had been twisted into a dough stick.
"Crash!"
A large amount of seawater began to ooze out of its body. This seawater was different from the others, it was a bright blue color, and it was full of life and possibilities.
To be honest, it is like the grass seeds on Apep's body when he is at full power, full of vitality and infinite possibilities.
However, the grass seeds on Apep are individual, while the water here is in pieces.
Large expanses of azure water merged into the ocean under the World Tree, giving the entire ocean a layer of faint blue fluorescence.
"Gulu! Guru!"
There were bubbles in the ocean, so the roots of the golden tree loosened, and the whale that had been twisted into a knot instantly returned to its original appearance.
The previous distortion of its body and leakage of fetal water seemed to have no effect on this whale.
"Is that your pet?" Yu Jin looked at the scene in the sky and came over to ask Villette.
The Golden Tree had been silent for so long because it had gone to look for water! And it knew to look for this special kind of water.
Okay, smarter than its old mother.
"No, I don't have the habit of raising pets. When did this thing... mix into the original fetal sea?"
That Villette looked at the whale in the sky that was captured by the golden tree again, with a puzzled look on his face.
When did this guy appear in the original fetal sea? And it seems that it has swallowed up a lot of sea water.
"Woo——!!!"
Just as Villette was thinking, an even more bone-chilling cry interrupted his thoughts.
I saw that the whale in the sky was twisted even harder by the golden tree, and this time it was twisted for a while, then loosened, and then twisted again.
It looks like the golden tree is drying clothes.
More sea water gushed out of the whale's body, and it was like a sponge full of water, always able to squeeze out water.
The blue of the ocean became brighter, and correspondingly, the bubbles rising from the sea surface became fewer and fewer.
The two who could sense this change most clearly were the Great Compassion Tree King and Nashida. As the two incarnations of the World Tree, almost everything about the World Tree could be found in them.
When they lifted their feet, they found that the blisters on their faces had disappeared and the redness and swelling had also faded a lot.
The water from the original fetal sea is useful.
Although the golden tree has no eyes, it can sense changes in heat below. As a tree, always paying attention to fire hazards is a necessary survival skill.
So it twisted the whale even harder.
"Kakaka!"
"Woo——"
"Kakaka!"
"Woo——"
"Kakaka!"
"Woo..."
……
The golden tree has no mercy when twisting the whale. Under its huge force, every twist means the shattering of the whale's horn and body shell.
However, the whale's recovery ability is unexpectedly strong. As long as the golden tree lets go a little, it will immediately return to its original state.
This was repeated over and over again, and the waterfall of the original fetal sea in the sky never stopped, and the ocean under the world tree became more and more similar to the original fetal sea in Villette's memory.
In the end, even Ember couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
"Alright, alright! Stop pushing! If you keep pushing I'll be squeezed to death!" He shouted at the golden tree from below, and the golden roots heard it and had to let go of the whale in disappointment.
The golden tree knew that the water was sufficient, but it was just for insurance. However, since Ember had spoken, it let the poor big fish go.
The whale, who had been tortured by the golden tree for a long time, felt his head and tail loosen and quickly closed his eyes.
Because letting go would only mean the next pain coming, but this time it was not. No matter how long the whale closed its eyes, the heart-wrenching pain did not come.
It opened its eyes and saw that the golden tree had retracted its roots, leaving it an exit.
This strange whale is not stupid, its wisdom is no less than that of humans. It only took a moment for it to realize that the golden tree was going to let it go.
"Woo!"
After a cry that was obviously filled with joy and relief, the whale flapped its wide fins and swam impatiently towards the exit.
However, it did not feel happy for a moment, as it saw that the exit that had just been opened was blocked by the roots of the golden tree again.
"Woo~"
The whale immediately shrank its body, and then used all its might to escape backwards.
This big tree is really shameless. There are so many people on the ground who don’t want to play with it, but they just want to fight with it, a big fish that doesn’t fight with the world.
When the whale that was forcibly pulled over by the golden tree thought of this, tears flashed in its narrow eyes.
In the primordial sea, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, that kind of comfortable life would not end like this, right?
The whale was moving very fast, which was very inconsistent with its fat body. But the golden tree was even faster. The whale floating in the sky didn't even have time to flap its fins a few times before it was entangled by the roots extending from behind.
"Squeak..."
The sound of roots rubbing against each other was faint, and the whale, which was caught by the golden tree again, gave up struggling.
Its belly was facing upwards, and its eyes were closed, just like the dead fish in the pond.
The unbearable pain did not come for a long time. On the contrary, the whale only felt a warm feeling all over his body.
When I opened my fish eyes, I saw drops of dew of different colors gathering at the end of a golden root.
The dew on the roots gradually grew larger and more colorful. Soon, drops of dew of various strange colors fell on the broad belly of the big white fish, and the warmth on its body came from there.
The whale suddenly felt that his body was infinitely better. His fins were stronger, his belly was bigger, his horns were sharper, and even his ears were more sensitive...
The dew no longer oozed from the ends of its roots, and the whale was completely free.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
But this time the whale didn't care about the world in the distance. It was no longer afraid of the roots of the golden tree. On the contrary, it kept approaching.
It follows wherever the roots of the golden tree shrink. Not only that, the whale also rubs the huge roots of the golden tree with its own horn.
"Why is this fish so dog-like?" Yu Jin saw this scene from afar and couldn't help but complain.
"How should I know? Whose pet could it be?" Villette shook his head. This whale was really spineless. It turned into a lapdog as soon as it was given a little sweetness.
As if the golden tree was annoyed by the whale's constant harassment, it no longer retreated, but stretched out its roots to wrap it tightly like a dumpling.
Then, with a "bang", a large fish-shaped hole was smashed into the pink and white sky.
"Woo..."
Outside the big hole, you can hear the faint roar of whales.
The huge roots of the golden tree all retreated outside the world. At the same time, the breach in the sky was patched up by its smaller, hair-like roots.
The smaller the roots of the golden tree, the more transparent they were. Soon, the darkness in front of everyone's eyes disappeared, and when they looked up, the sky was still pink and white, and there was no sign that it had ever been broken.
"It grows really fast. It must be digging for food from outside the world." Yu Jin thought about the performance of the golden tree just now, and became more and more certain that it had dug a hole in the world.
This is normal, because the golden tree grew too big because of the ember's blood. After drinking all the blood of the ember, it needs the same amount of power to fill itself.
Teyvat definitely cannot withstand the crazy exploitation of the Golden Tree, so outside the world is a good choice.
If possible, the Golden Tree would rather condense the Golden Tree Guard to go out and hunt for blood food, but if it does so, the Embers will peel off its skin and burn it as firewood.
So instead of taking a huge risk and stepping on the red line of embers, it is better to...
Yu Jin looked down at the golden tree roots that were knocking on his calves from below. When they saw Yu Jin's gaze coming over, the roots immediately split open like blooming flowers... Of course, it could also be said to be a big mouth.
