Chapter 4958 The tree of death!
A few days later, Cheng Yu finally got the data sent by Han Yaowu.
Looking at the data in his hand, Cheng Yu couldn't be said to be happy, but he couldn't be said to be disappointed either.
Statistics show that Cheng Yu now has a total of 238,000 disciples practicing the Holy Emperor's Heart Art, which is not much different from what Cheng Yu originally expected.
So far, there are only more than 9,200 people who have practiced this technique to Dzogchen, and more than 30,000 people have practiced it to Dzogchen, which does not include the more than 9,000 people who have reached the Dzogchen state.
This number is not particularly outstanding, but it can be seen that the Cheng family still has many outstanding disciples.
Moreover, these more than 200,000 disciples did not practice at the same time. These people were selected every day and then taught the Holy Emperor's Heart Secrets.
This means that some of them even started practicing last year.
So it’s not surprising that there are no results yet.
Cheng Yu remembered that the first batch of practitioners was 50,000, and he also practiced together at that time.
It has been almost six years now.
This time took longer than expected, because the information he got from the exercises at the beginning was that it would take about two or three years to practice to Dzogchen.
In fact, there are only a few people who can truly cultivate to Dzogchen within this period of time, that is, he, Ke Ke, and a few others such as Bai Zhengqi.
Now three years have passed, and now a total of more than 9,000 people have achieved Dzogchen. Although it is three years late, the result still makes him quite satisfied.
Originally, he thought he would take about 10,000 people out to awaken the technique, but now he sees that there are more than 30,000 people who have cultivated to the highest level, and more than 40,000 people have reached Dzogchen.
He hesitated a little. How many people should he take out?
Should we take all the more than 40,000 people out, or only the more than 9,000 Dzogchen people?
After all, these people are the elites of the Cheng family. What if the Cheng family is attacked by enemies after he takes them out?
In particular, he was particularly looking forward to seeing if, apart from his own few women, other people could also awaken their skills when they reached the realm of Dacheng.
So from his heart, he hopes to take away all these 40,000 people.
After all, if you bring too few people to the Dacheng realm, you may not be able to try it out. What if the people you bring out fail to awaken?
But if we take away all the more than 30,000 people who are in the Great Perfection Realm, won’t even one of the more than 30,000 people be able to awaken?
If none of the more than 30,000 people can awaken, it seems to have proved that not all those in the Dacheng state can awaken in advance.
The reason why several of his women were able to awaken in the realm of Dacheng was precisely because of their special identities and the inheritance of the Open Sky Mirror, which was even related to their becoming immortal spirits.
"No matter how many there are, judging from the current situation, the dynasty should not rush to the Cheng family with its army." Cheng Yu thought about it and finally decided to take all 40,000 people away.
After all, the situation of the Cheng family is actually relatively stable now, and the dynasty does not have any major friction with the Cheng family.
Therefore, the possibility of the dynasty suddenly sending troops to attack the Cheng family is very low.
Moreover, he would only be away for half a year to a year at most. I believe that in such a short period of time, the dynasty would not be able to attack the Cheng family that quickly.
After all, the dynasty's arrival at the Cheng family is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time, especially when it comes with a large army.
So Cheng Yu finally decided to take more than 40,000 people with him.
After all, now is the time when the Cheng family urgently needs to improve their strength. If they bring so many thousands of people at a time, how many years will it take to awaken hundreds of thousands of people?
The awakening must not be known to outsiders, so although Cheng Yu wants to take more than 40,000 people away from the Cheng family, he will never leave with so many people in a big way.
After asking Han Yao to gather more than 40,000 people together, Cheng Yu let them all enter his Fairy and Demon Tower.
The Mountain and River Map is a very big secret, especially because there are too many resources stored in it. Cheng Yu would not have put anyone else in it if it were not for his close confidants and people around him.
So Cheng Yu, after disguising himself, set out again.
This time Cheng Yu was alone, so it was much easier to move around.
Along the way, the most exciting thing Cheng Yu heard was about the sacred tree.
It's just that there are very few people who have seen the sacred tree. Although they are very interested in it, they can only rely on guesswork about everything about the sacred tree.
In addition, records of the sacred tree have almost disappeared in the world of cultivation. Even he only learned about it from these ruins of the Holy City, Zhenhun and other people or things related to the Holy City.
Otherwise, he wouldn't know that there is a sacred tree in this world.
So although these people know that this mysterious tree is very huge and towers into the clouds with no end in sight, they don't know that this is the characteristic of the sacred tree.
I believe that even if this characteristic of the sacred tree was passed down to the dynasty, no one might know about it.
But what he was sure of was that it was normal for others in the dynasty not to know, but the head of the dynasty definitely knew.
Therefore, it is not terrible that this news reaches the dynasty. What is terrible is that it reaches the ears of the dynasty's leader.
Once he knew about it, he would probably search for the existence of the sacred tree on a large scale, which would bring some inconvenience to Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu currently does not know whether this news has reached the ears of the dynasty or even the Lord.
However, he will still be more careful. Even if he comes out this time, he will try his best to hide in a more remote place and let as many people know as possible.
But before that, Cheng Yu will follow Xinyao's idea and shake these guys first.
So, a month after Cheng Yu left the Cheng family, news about the mysterious tree spread from a place called Yunleifeng within the influence of Changlin Waichao.
After hearing the news, everyone rushed frantically towards Yunlei Peak, where Chang Lin Wai Chao was located.
But when everyone rushed to Shuiyun City, the nearest city to Yunlei Peak, they heard that the mysterious tree disappeared as early as the fourth day after it appeared, which made everyone disappointed.
But this time, many people saw this mysterious tree.
Because Yunlei Peak is very close to Shuiyun City, it is not too remote. At the speed of a monk, it only takes half a day. Even an ordinary person can vaguely see the distance after walking for two or three days and standing on a higher mountain.
There is a huge tree rising into the sky.
But just like last time, those who were close to the mysterious tree basically died. Even if these people were nearly a hundred miles away from the mysterious tree, they all died inexplicably.
So many people gave this tree a name - the tree of death.
Because there is no good end for those who see it, and most of the people who die are left with only a mummy of human skin and skeleton, and the death situation is very miserable.
As a result, this tree became more and more evil. Wherever this tree appears, a lot of people will die. This is a very unlucky symbol.
But even so, there are still many monks coming for this tree of death.
Obviously, the death of so many people was not enough to scare these monks.
After all, as a monk, what's the point of being dead?
They were practicing outside. Once a treasure was born, how many monks would fight for the treasure. That time, there would be heads rolling, corpses scattered everywhere, and rivers of blood flowing.
So the death of so many people is not enough to dissuade them.
However, the Tree of Death was no longer there. When they arrived at the location where the Tree of Death appeared, they did not encounter any danger. They only saw mummified human skins all over the ground.
"Is this really a tree of death?" Everyone looked at the mummies on the ground and couldn't help but panic.
They had seen a lot of dead people, but it was really rare to see people die in such horrific ways.
"All people turn into mummies after death. I suspect that this tree relies on this method to suck the essence and blood of the monks!" someone suspected.
"So, this tree is really very evil! It's a bit like some of the magic skills practiced by demonic monks!
I'm afraid it's not that simple behind it, the tree of death is just a cover!" someone questioned.
"You mean that this is actually man-made. These people were not killed by the tree, but someone deliberately used the tree as a cover to attract monks and suck their blood for practicing magic?"
Everyone was shocked and said in shock.
"It's not impossible, otherwise why would these people be sucked so cleanly? Obviously the purpose of the person behind this is to suck their essence and blood!"
"If this is really the case, it means that someone is using this tree of death to practice terrifying magic skills. This would be too scary.
If this person continues to use this tree of death to attract monks, I am afraid that monks will continue to be fooled and become his cultivation resources!" Someone said worriedly.
"Then what happened to the tree of death? I heard some people say that they were killed by the tree, not by humans!" someone questioned.
"We are just guessing now, and we are not sure that someone is practicing magic. Maybe it is really just a tree.
However, whether this matter is caused by a tree or a person, this tree is not simple." Someone still said very curiously.
"But now this tree has disappeared, and I don't know where it went. However, it appeared in Qianjue Mountain before, and now it appears here again, so it can be seen that it will appear in other places!"
"That's true, but we don't know where it will appear next time! Maybe next time when we get news of its appearance, we will rush over and it will have already run away!" Someone said helplessly.
After all, the world of cultivation is so big that it was already a month ago when they heard the news.
It's impossible for it to wait for everyone to catch it for such a long time!
