Chapter 1472 - 1058: Lu Ya

Chapter 1472: Chapter 1058: Lu Ya

This woman’s clothes were bright, a high ponytail adorned with a cluster of golden feathers at the top, and there were several long golden feathers on her shoulders; judging by the looks of it, she turned out to be a Demon Cultivator!

The system’s prompt remained succinct—[Lu Ya][Can Be Deified]

Jiang Yuan’s pupils trembled instantly! Ya?! The owner of the parchment diary found at Shuiyun Lake when I first entered the Wilderness World?!

The creator of the Earth Mirror Book!

Spying on the Human World’s Core sprouts being devoured, what she wrote in the diary was to replace the World Sprout, like Xuanyuan Yangguang, willing to be trapped here for hundreds of years to save the world?!

"Stop complaining, here, I’ll split more Spirit Medicine for you." Xuanyuan Yangguang chuckled and handed over a handful of Spirit Medicine, to the woman almost shoulder-to-shoulder with him, "You say isn’t it a coincidence? Today, a distinguished guest came to stay, and it’s at your old abode, the Deserted Island Shuiyun Lake."

Everything happened within an extremely short time.

Lu Ya then discovered that besides the pile of Spirit Medicine, there was another person.

"Oh! It sure is fresh, we’ve sat here for three hundred years, it’s the first time we encounter a visitor!" She looked joyful, stood up, and assessed Jiang Yuan, who was making junior greetings, and cheerfully asked, "Are you living on the Deserted Island too? How is Shuiyun Lake these days?

Oh! I was purely fooled back in the day; there was a rumor that the Deserted Island had Heaven-Reaching Wood, and climbing up it would lead to Kunlun Void. But I found nothing, did you get tricked too?"

She spoke briskly and sharply, easing the oppressive atmosphere of being bound here.

Jiang Yuan noticed that Xuanyuan Yangguang looked at her with sparkling eyes! Heh heh, these two have something going on! Oh no, at least Elder Xuanyuan is interested in her.

Thinking about it, it seems understandable. Facing each other every night for three hundred years, Xuanyuan Yangguang endured countless twists and turns, meeting such a passionate and sunny fellow, it’s normal for his heart to be drawn.

Just unsure if the girl has any thoughts; if she does, the two ascending to Deification together wouldn’t be a bad pair of Immortal lovers...

Lovers? A light flashed across his mind, the side task of the Clear Wind Bright Moon Spirit Sword pair was still hanging unfinished. If he gifted them, wouldn’t it be perfect?

Xuanyuan Yangguang and Lu Ya, two extraordinary talents, Mandarin Duck Twin Swords would surely be delighted to follow such owners.

Recalling those found diaries, everything connects mysteriously in the dark, he feels a thrill of discovering a grand easter egg!

"I’ve never seen Heaven-Reaching Wood. However, in the logs left by Elder, I found the Heaven-Reaching Divine Tree growing deep in the Old Dragon Cave trill mines. Thanks to Elder’s guidance, I followed the Divine Tree to this place."

"Hey?! Isn’t that tree long dead? I also tried climbing it, but any touch on the branches turned to ash." Lu Ya exclaimed, "Only the lower part barely remains unrotted, I went along the Divine Tree to search below for plenty of artifact refining ores.

What a pity, I don’t understand Shennong’s way of nurturing, just wrote it casually in the logs. After all these years, it should have decayed more severely, how did you climb up? Plus, able to reach the Little World Core, just what kind of tree is this?"

Jiang Yuan: ...

So you didn’t know it was the World Tree?

Xuanyuan Yangguang looked at this, then at that, suddenly realized, "You two both chose the same place as your abode one after another, Lu Ya liked writing logs to record interesting things, and then scattered them messily.

Those jottings were discovered by Fellow Daoist, thereby finding the Divine Tree to arrive here. Coincidentally, a friend known by Fellow Daoist had an old acquaintance with me, today the three of us gathered here, indeed, fate is quite miraculous."

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement, then took from his Storage Bag a pruned, surplus branch of the World Tree, "I revived that Divine Tree; Elder, can you identify what this tree is?"

A green tree branch about thirty centimeters long and thumb thick, sparsely growing seven or eight branchlets and leaves, the leaves emit a peculiar glow that spreads rich energy as soon as it’s taken out.

Lu Ya and Xuanyuan Yangguang looked at each other in tacit understanding, both saw shock and joy in the other’s eyes.

"World Tree!" Both said in unison.

Xuanyuan Yangguang nodded with a smile, "No wonder you could follow the branches to climb here. Theoretically, the World Tree can reach any Little World, possibly even the backside of the World of legends."

It’s a branch of the World Tree!

Lu Ya’s eyes immediately gleamed, persistently giving Xuanyuan Yangguang hints, signaling him to try to get the branch.

"Speaking of which, I also obtained the first volume of Earth Mirror Book buried by Elder Lu Ya in the courtyard, and found many treasures including the Clone Arm Ring left in the Mysterious Cave by you." Jiang Yuan sincerely expressed gratitude, these skills and equipment benefited him a lot and saved many detours.

"In that case..." Lu Ya was about to speak but was stopped by Xuanyuan Yangguang’s gaze, swallowing her words back, and instead laughed, "That’s your fortune; I’m not using them anyway, you can have them all!"

Jiang Yuan was equally curious about this Elder, he pursued the question, "Piecing together bits and pieces from the found logs regarding Elder, I’m very curious about your past, could you tell us about Elder Lu Ya’s stories?"

The counterpart waved and smiled, "I can’t compare to Xuanyuan’s extraordinary past, speaking of mine it’s quite simple. I was born in a Little World ruled by Demon Beasts, the survival environment there was very harsh, but the benefit was either you are very strong or very lucky to survive.

I probably belong to the latter, I didn’t engage in much rigorous cultivation, yet managed decently relying on innate abilities. Later I heard about the vast outside world where Demon Beasts could transform into human form, wear beautiful clothes, and eat exquisite meals, which sparked my curiosity.
