Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Mirror God, Master of Fear

Chapter 153 Tree of Life
The anticipated upheaval did not occur; the balance remained intact, and the world simply returned to peace.

The appearance of the Earthly Demon seemed to have no impact whatsoever; the balance had not even fully entered the Dark Age.

Time passed slowly, and on the third day...

Finally, fear gained the authority promised by Westwood.

He looked at the sapling in Ximu's hand, a thoughtful expression on his face: "This is..."

"tree of Life."

Ximu smiled and said, "It contains the power of life."

Lin Luo's eyes brightened slightly. He knew about the Tree of Life; the Elven race once possessed two such treasures.

One is the Cup of Life, which can preserve youth forever; the other is the Tree of Life.

If you water the tree of life with the water of life every year, then the tree of life will bear the fruit of life.

If the water of life only temporarily restores youth, then the fruit of life is the true treasure that prolongs life.

Of course, lifespan is not important to evil gods, as they are immortal.

The power over life is what the evil god desires; it is the key to the conceptualization of fear.

Although the current fear is still somewhat lacking in terms of even multi-race understanding, the conceptualization still needs to be prepared as soon as possible.

“Indeed, Di Kui is worth all this.”

Ximu shook his head with a smile: "The right to life was agreed upon beforehand, but the Tree of Life is not."

Fear pondered for a moment, glanced at Ximu, then looked away and continued to scan half the world in the moonlight: "It's alright, you can just separate the power of life."

Ximu's face stiffened; this was not the answer he wanted.

"Hehe, isn't that too much trouble? The Tree of Life has the authority to live, and perhaps it can bear more than just the Fruit of Life? Think about it, how were the elves originally born?"

He patiently and persuasively tried to increase the weight of the Tree of Life in the heart of the evil god.

But the evil god didn't respond at all. He put his hands behind his back, looked at the world through the moonlight, and thought how beautiful the world was. Unfortunately, the balance was off.

Looking out over the ocean, deep within the sea, an old man wearing a straw hat is swimming freely. Behind him, small creatures with the lower half of a fish and the upper half of a human follow him, flapping their tails.

Occasionally, I would grab some seaweed and stuff it into my mouth, looking extremely happy.

Lin Luo observed for a while.

The mermaid should have already passed the initial stage and reached the juvenile stage.

The mermaid of today has inherited the memories from the first wave and possesses a simple ability to control water.

If no supernatural force were to affect the ocean, they could live very well there.

After all, mermaids are the darlings of the sea, naturally possessing a high degree of affinity, and almost no marine creatures will actively attack them.

Let Tian Xin send the mermaids to the vicinity of the lizardmen, so that the mermaids can live with the lizardmen for the time being. Once they reach adolescence, there will be no need to pay any attention to them.

At that time, nothing in the entire ocean will be able to stop the mermaids.

As for whether those lizardmen are willing or not
The weak have no chance to say no to the strong.

"Okay, fear."

Ximu helplessly shrugged, and the Tree of Life in his hand flew towards Lin Luo.

He lay back down and let out a long sigh: "I'll give you everything, but I need two Origin-Tracing Demonic Insects. Given our relationship, you shouldn't refuse, right?"

Lin Luo reached out and took the Tree of Life, nodding, "Okay."

The Tree of Life itself doesn't have much effect, but unfortunately, Lin Luo has the Cup of Life.

The Cup of Life paired with the Tree of Life and the Originating Demon Worm.

Restore youth, increase lifespan, and enhance strength.

With three top-tier resources in his hands, there will be very few things in this world that he cannot obtain.

Whether it's secular forces or future supernatural forces, the evil god's foundation will be beyond imagination.

With a raised hand, two thumb-sized worms appeared amidst the fluctuations of divine power. Surprised by the change in their surroundings, they began to wriggle restlessly.

Ximu's eyes lit up. This was a seed that Ximu had deliberately left behind during the process of being dealt with by the gods.

However, it was later given to the Holy Lord for the sake of Vidis, and eventually flowed from the Holy Lord's hands into the hands of the evil god.

Now, finally, it's back in his hands, and Ximu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Indeed, the world isn't just about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social interactions.
Carefully taking the worms, the two worms instantly calmed down. Ximu's projection solidified, and he scratched the back of the worms. Then, a spatial fluctuation flashed, and the two worms disappeared.

Xi Mu looked up at the sky in a very good mood and asked, "Fear, what about the changes you mentioned? Has Di Kui already won?"

"What do you think?"

The evil god retorted, his tone tinged with amusement.

Just by not touching the Earthly King, one can obtain a top-level authority; this is quite a good deal.

Of course, he never intended to go after the Earth Demon; he was initially quite interested in the Titans' miraculous power.

Without the Titans, the Earth Demon would have long since returned to Hell.

Unfortunately, the power of life cannot be compared to miracles.

I did some research on the Tree of Life.

He had to find a way to cut off a portion of the power over life; he wanted half, or even less.

Too many is not good, as it can easily lead to suppression by other authorities.

However, it is indeed difficult to sever the authority without harming it. He needs to study it carefully, otherwise the fusion of the authority and the Tree of Life will be wasted.

He couldn't even imagine how powerful the fruit of this Tree of Life, which contained authority, could be.

"Hey"

Ximu sighed and looked at the sky: "Then let's wait a little longer." "You can go back and wait, I have to go now."

The evil god did not hesitate to issue an order to leave.

Clearly, the evil god is no longer interested in the matter of the Earth God; any conspiracies or schemes might represent something truly terrifying.

But right now, it doesn't affect the evil god, and it only targets the demons of the earth. For Lin Luo, severing the power of life is more important right now.

Xi Mu was speechless. Did they just pull up their pants and then deny everything?
"You go about your business, I'll just take a look."

Ximu continued to lie there, showing no embarrassment whatsoever. He was merely a projection, and as long as the evil god didn't personally dispel it, he could monitor the evil god for a hundred years without getting annoyed.

As for the main body
For Ximu, isn't it perfectly normal to be able to multitask or even do three things at once?

Even as the clone chatted idly, the main body, cool and dazzling with the Fruit of Life, had already reached the point of enlightenment, but this did not affect the clone's clear thinking in the slightest.

As for the Tree of Life in the hands of the evil god, it was clearly so small, so where did the Fruit of Life come from?
Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Tree of Life has absorbed the power of life. How could it still be just a sapling?
If it weren't for the Fruit of Life, why would Ximu waste his energy searching for the Authority of Life?
Originally, the Life Authority was meant to be exchanged for the Source-Tracing Demon Insects. However, after the appearance of the Earth Demon, it maximized the value of the Tree of Life, which had been drained to the point of recovering to its sapling stage.

Why not use a strategy that kills three or even four birds with one stone?

Ximu tilted his head slightly, watching the evil god begin to study the Tree of Life, and asked with a smile, "You want to sever the authority?"

The evil god ignored him, but he wasn't embarrassed either.

What's more important than appearances? Substances.

"Hehe, I have some magic that can turn authority into objects, do you want it?"

The evil god looked up and glanced at him, then raised his hand, and a copy of the Complete Book of Spells appeared.

The thick, black book would not be recognized by other beings as a complete encyclopedia of magic, thus preventing them from peeking into its contents.

Ximu looked somewhat disappointed, clicked his tongue, and continued to look at the sky.

Fear is too cunning; it's difficult to gain anything from it. You have to give something first before you can expect a return, or you have to lower your expectations to have a chance of a pleasant surprise.

but
Being around fear, a demon with a brain, was quite pleasant for Ximu. At least he knew when he might be betrayed and when things would be amicable if he did what he could.
-
Mexico, a sea of ​​flowers.

It's today too.

A gust of wind blew by, and Jackie Chan stopped panting in the sea of ​​flowers. He checked the time.

"Thirty kilometers in fifteen minutes, another minute faster."

A hint of satisfaction appeared in Jackie Chan's eyes.

He is getting stronger and stronger, basically reaching a superhuman level, and continues to cultivate.

It might actually be possible to reach the strength of destroying a mountain with bare hands.

In the murals of the Orc Tomb, he saw the shadows of many body cultivators, such as the Orc King himself, or Bai Qi, both of whom were masters of body cultivation.

And they are all terrifyingly strong.

Jackie Chan's current target is them.

Open the food box in your hand and take out all the dishes inside.

Jackie Chan looked up and called out, "Jade, dinner's ready."

At the top of the fortress.

A girl with slightly white pupils sat up, looking at Jackie Chan with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Soon after, the whiteness in his pupils gradually dissipated.

Xiaoyu leaped down, a magical fluctuation flashed, and the girl landed lightly: "Uncle Long, what delicious food did you buy this time?"

"Dragon Kingdom cuisine: stir-fried pork with chili peppers, braised pork, and tomato and egg soup."

"Wow~ Long live Uncle Long!"

Xiaoyu excitedly took the rice that Jackie Chan served her and began to eat it with a hint of excitement.

These dishes might seem common in China, and eating them too often might even diminish one's appetite.

But after spending a long time abroad, you'll realize just how satisfying these things can be.

Jackie Chan watched Jade eat, and a look of pleasure appeared in his eyes.

My gaze shifted slightly downwards, and there on the girl's chest, the necklace that symbolized friendship was still there, but its negative influence on her seemed to have disappeared.

that's nice
"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

"hey-hey."

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Jackie Chan began to clear the table. A gentle breeze carried the aroma of the food and the fragrance of flowers, making everyone feel refreshed and relaxed.

Jackie Chan looked up at the sunset, squinted, and realized he was enjoying this kind of life too.
"Uncle Long."

Xiaoyu touched her belly, sat on the grass, looked into the distance, and suddenly spoke.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Jackie Chan responded, packed his things, and looked at the girl.

"Let's go back."

Jackie Chan paused slightly, but didn't ask anything, simply nodding: "Okay."

Xiaoyu lowered her head, a smile playing on her lips. Although Uncle Long didn't ask, she still explained:
"I mean, the Saint Seiya completely helped Isa reconstruct her physical body; she truly came back to life, though she's still somewhat weak."

As Jackie Chan listened to Xiaoyu's description, he smiled, took Xiaoyu's hand, and walked out of the sea of ​​flowers.

He simply echoed Xiaoyu's words, listening to her views on the Titans, the Earth Kingdom, and the Saints, and smiled.

It seems Xiaoyu is back. That's great!
behind them.

The sea of ​​flowers swayed gently.

A gentle breeze blew by, stirring up a few petals that drifted away with the wind, as if expressing gratitude or bidding farewell.

　There's one more delayed, and I'm currently working hard on writing this.
