533 Tree Demon
Hong Yan and Hei Yan took Yuchi and left the area. On the way, Hong Yan still had one thing to make clear to Yuchi.
Hong Yan said to Yuchi, “When you meet this 300,000-year-old senior later, I think you should be mentally prepared. This senior’s mental state may not be as good as you think.”
“Therefore, when this old senior is talking to you, you might feel a little uncomfortable. Still, I hope you can acknowledge this old senior. After all, she has lived for 300000 years.”
“She is basically a living record of everything in this place. So if you really start a fight with her, even if you kill her in the end, you’ll be erasing a portion of the history of this place.”
Yuchi did not quite understand what Hong Yan meant, but Hei Yan added, “We’re telling you this because it’s very difficult to get along with this senior. Every time we have other matters to discuss, she’ll come.”
“This senior would always think of ways to make things difficult for us, and her words are quite unkind. Although we don’t have a good impression of this senior, we respect the fact that she has managed to live this long, as this means that she has great will and determination.”
Yuchi thought about it for a while, and reckoned that he understood what Hong Yan and Hei Yan meant. Based on what they were saying, this person was not easy to get along with, but it did not matter. Yuchi was not here to befriend this person. His only goal in meeting the senior was to enter the Sea of Oblivion.
“Don’t worry, I didn’t come here to cause a ruckus.”
Yuchi obviously meant what he said, and things were just as he said. He came with good intentions and did not intend to cause any major waves within the Sea of Oblivion.
He had his own things to do. When he reached the true god realm one day, there would be even more things to do. He did not have the time to waste on such a person.
Hong Yan and Hei Yan relaxed when they heard this.
Hong Yan also said to Yuchi jokingly, “You can’t blame us for reminding you about this. After all, you were still very cold when we first met, so I was afraid that the other party would anger you, and you would start fighting. It might be improbable, but we just needed to be sure.”
Yuchi only smiled and did not pursue the matter.
Yuchi also discovered that the atmosphere here was quite interesting. This group of demigods really had nothing to do. They were just playing around in this place. It seemed that many of them had given up on reaching the true god realm.
This place was like a large-scale city, with all kinds of messy buildings.
It was obvious that these demigods had a lot of time.
They had done some modeling of all the races they had seen, so when Yuchi was shuttling through the sky at high speed, he could see buildings and people down below on the ground.
Of course, the first time he saw it, he was still a little shocked. He was simply amazed by the beauty of the buildings.
Yuchi felt that he definitely did not have the skill to slowly design and put together this kind of architecture.
However, after looking at it for a long time, Yuchi had a different feeling in his heart. The ‘people’ down below were all modeled from clay, and were very life-like.
Although upon first glance it looked like the place was full of vitality, after one got to know the truth, it seemed a little terrifying instead. As the entire place below was dead silent.
Was this the direction that the world was heading to? Would everything eventually become abandoned and lifeless?
At this moment, Hong Yan and Hei Yan saw the expression on Yuchi’s face.
They looked at each other and smiled. Then, they pointed to a huge tree in the distance. This tree was about 3,000 meters tall. Its roots coiled deep into the ground and its branches almost reached the sky. It gave off a very imposing feeling.
“That’s her.”
Yuchi was surprised.
“Yes,” Hong Yan said, “It’s just like what you can see now. That senior has lived for 300,000 years, and she’s not in a regular form. She’s in the form of a big tree. You can think of her as a tree demon.”
“Of course, this senior doesn’t really mind you calling her that either. She has never tried to disassociate herself from that identity.”
“So does this tree demon have a specific name?” Yuchi asked.
Hei Yan shook his head.
“No, we just call her tree demon. After all, she’s had many names throughout her life, so she doesn’t bother telling them to anyone.:
“It doesn’t matter anyway, as she usually doesn’t communicate with us anyway.”
“We only see her when we want to have certain things recorded about things we are undertaking.”
