Chapter 522 - 522 A Day of Life

522 A Day of Life

It turned out that the people here were born at dawn and gone at sunrise.

Young in the morning, strong in the afternoon, old in the afternoon, dead at sunset.

Just now, she asked him how minutes old he was, which meant how old was he.

An hour was equivalent to ten years for an ordinary person, and a lifetime was equivalent to one day for an ordinary person.

“Little girl, can you take me to the place where you were born?” He Chuan smiled kindly.

“What are 30,000 days old people doing? I’m sure it’ll be boring.” The little girl asked non-stop. When she learned someone could live for more than 30,000 days, she covered her mouth in surprise.

He Chuan couldn’t help but laugh.

Cultivators thought that a few thousand years of lifespan was not enough. Ordinary people in the mortal world thought the same. Living for a few thousand years or even eternal life was boring. It was simply a form of torture.

However, how could they know the fun of having a long life?

It was exactly like this creature did not know the pleasures of ordinary people.

To avoid danger, He Chuan decided to go to the place where she was born.

After walking for a while, the little girl turned into a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with bright eyes and white teeth.

The clothes on her body changed accordingly. It would be so embarrassing if she didn’t have any clothes that fit.

The young girl was youthful and lively. She jumped around in the forest, catching insects from time to time, playing with them on her palms, and pestering He Chuan to tell stories about ordinary people.

When she heard that someone had spent several days or even dozens of days travelling, the young girl was so shocked that she could not speak.

She suddenly felt these ordinary people were so pitiful. They had spent several lifetimes traveling.

Seventeen or eighteen years old was the age of first awakening of love. He Chuan’s appearance was not bad. His cultivation had formed a flawless body. His skin was like white jade, and he did not look like a mortal.

After a few more moments, the girl grew up again. She was no longer as lively as before, but more reserved and solemn.

“Big Brother, can you give me a name? I don’t have a name yet. The girl’s face was red as she looked at He Chuan, her voice like a mosquito. “Since you’re born on the first ray of the day. Let’s call you Chen Xi.” He Chuan said casually. He did not see Chen Xi’s hesitant expression.

The custom of this world was to give a name, which represented that one was willing to marry someone. Unfortunately, He Chuan did not understand romance, and Chen Xi was unwilling to remind him.

In fact, she had already guessed that He Chuan was the person who could live for tens of thousands of days.

Tens of thousands of days was too long, unimaginably long.

Chenxi’s time was only one of ens of thousands of his time.

He Chuan saw everything and did not interfere. Their lifespans were too short.

Moreover, they did not have a divine soul. They were like a walking corpses, and their body structure was a little like a plant.

Drinking dew and sunbathing, didn’t require any defecation.

Life and death had their own rules and were all predestined. Only cultivation could defy the heavens and change one’s fate.

“Over there!” The gradually older woman pointed at the trees in the distance.

Under the canopy of this tree, the leaves were like a parasol tree, bright silver in color. There was a woman’s face with eyes closed on the trunk, and the smooth silver bark was like the ice skin of beauty.

There were a few old men sitting under the tree. They should be Chen Xi’s kind.

The sun had just set, and the old men died one after another.

“I’m leaving.” Chen Xi’s eyes were filled with longing. She really wanted to stay with him for a while longer. Perhaps long-lived species would live longer because they wanted to stay with their loved ones forever.

Chen Xi passed away.

He Chuan wanted to bury the corpse, but Chen Xi’s corpse turned into a green fluorescent light.

“Take care.” He Chuan understood her intentions, but they were of different species, and the gap between them was too big.

From birth to death, it was only a day’s time. From love to marriage, it was only a few minutes.

A few minutes was just a cup of tea for him. How could he develop feelings so easily? Even love at first sight was not so fast.

He approached the silver tree. Since it had a woman’s face, he temporarily called it the female tree.

As the sun set, everyone returned to the world.

The female tree bore white and fat fruits.

It was a little like the embryonic form of a baby. As time passed, the fruit became as big as a baby.

He came to the tree, and suddenly, the face on the tree opened its eyes. Its green vertical pupils looked at He Chuan with hatred.

“Get lost!” The sound formed a tangible sound wave, sharp as a knife, and even the stones were neatly cut open wherever it went.

At the same time, green vines crawled out of the ground and tightly wrapped around He Chuan’s legs.

He Chuan’s lips curled into a smile as he remained motionless.

The sound waves were useless against him.

The vines were shattered into pieces by a nameless’s power.

Crash!

“Do you want to die or live?” He Chuan’s figure instantly appeared in front of the female tree, his fingertips surrounded by demonic fire.

“Sir, please spare my life. I am willing to submit.” The female tree’s expression changed immediately and she blurted out.

Her answer was very straightforward, without any hesitation.

“I ask, you answer.” He Chuan said.

Her situation was not good, so she could only choose to admit defeat. The female tree’s cultivation was not bad, about the level of an early-stage Celestial Realm.

In the Central Great Land, it was only an ordinary cultivation base. However, it was quite rare in this world.

Without essence, how did it cultivate to this extent?

“They were all transported by the children on my tree. The essence energy produced after their death can be used for my cultivation.” In the face of He Chuan’s doubts, the female tree smiled bitterly.

So that was how it was. He Chuan somewhat understood.

Then, he went forward and plucked the Treeman Fruit.

Its appearance was exactly the same as that of a baby. Apart from the baby fruit, the green flesh was the flesh, and the roots and veins were the meridians and blood vessels.

It seemed to be a natural formation that could absorb sunlight and transform it into fine essence energy.

The female tree relied on this method to cultivate.

No wonder Cui Xu thought that this place was worthless. This place couldn’t even be compared to the Southern Spiritual Region, and the Heavenly Demon didn’t care about heartless creatures without souls.

All sentient beings were the Heavenly Demons’ favorite.

“How useless.” This place was too useless. Although there were many good things, this was the outer realm.

The array needed at least a few hundred thousand spirit stones to maintain and Star Jade Fragments to activate.

The cost was more than 200 million yuan.

This nothingness is worth 200 million.

He Chuan took a bite of the fruit. The fruit was extremely delicious, and he felt like he was about to ascend.

It was as if he had been cleansed from the inside out.

“Hmm?” He Chuan looked at it carefully. This thing seemed to have the effect of purifying one’s bloodline and cleansing one’s soul.

For body refinement cultivators who were often affected by their bloodlines, it was simply a divine item.

Thinking of this, He Chuan finished the entire fruit.

“It can extend one’s lifespan? How many more trees like you are there?” He Chuan was a little surprised and looked at the female tree.

“I’m the only one left in this world. My essence energy has completely disappeared. I can’t hold on for long.” Thinking of this, the female tree said cautiously.

Without enough essence to support her, she would slowly wither and die like the others.

“You need essence energy to grow?” He Chuan didn’t answer but asked.

“If you have enough essence, you can theoretically grow to the point where you can occupy the world.”

“I’ll give you my essence, and you’ll bear fruits for me in the future.” He Chuan released his domain.

The sky was pitch-black, and a bright moon hung high in the sky. Below it was a dark golden emperor dragon.

Boundless essence energy was absorbed by the domain and filled the entire space.

“Essence energy!” The female tree was ecstatic as she absorbed the essence energy crazily.

Crack!

The trees grew taller, and the number of Treeman Fruits grew tenfold, reaching thousands.

The coverage of the female trees was more than ten times larger than before, and the shade of the trees became an ecological area.
