My two-dimensional resident

"Let's go."

"Let's find that banyan tree spirit first. After all, we're not here to exterminate these monsters."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Tian decided to find the banyan tree spirit first before making any further plans. As for the monsters on the island, Lin Tian couldn't be bothered with them.

He believed that as long as the three of them did not provoke them, they would not dare to take the initiative to deal with them.

The forest was vast, and the three of them traversed through it along the dense vines. Every now and then, they could see a few poisonous scorpions, spiders, and centipedes. Although these monsters were all ordinary monsters, after they easily eliminated a few that tried to attack them, the other monsters made way for Lin Tian and the others.

"I sensed him. He's in that grove of oak trees ahead."

After crossing a small hill, Sesshomaru raised his finger and pointed to the distant woods.

"careful!"

Boom boom boom!

As Lin Tian turned his gaze toward the oak forest that Sesshomaru had pointed to, several enormous ice shuttles materialized in the sky, hurtling toward them at breakneck speed. Seeing this, the three quickly dodged backward.

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

Ice spikes slammed into the rocks in front of them, instantly shattering them into fragments that flew through the air.

Faced with such a powerful attack, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. If he hadn't used the elemental transformation ability of the Flame-Flame Fruit, he would probably have been killed if these ice shuttles had hit him.

"It's Killua!"

Lin Tian followed Sesshomaru's gaze and looked up, only to see a three-headed serpent demon emerge from the clouds, its six scarlet beast children exuding a suffocating killing intent.

"Is that him? He's really strong."

Lin Tian stared at the great demon with a gloomy expression. According to Sesshomaru, he had encountered this great demon in the sea. But now it was here, which meant that his previous plan had failed.

To find the banyan tree spirit, you must defeat the great monster before you.

"Thief! I already told you, if you come here again, I'll turn you into fertilizer for this island. And you still dare to come?!"

Killua twisted his enormous body, the central snake head roaring furiously at Sesshomaru. In his eyes, the three people before him had become three corpses.

"Lin Tian..." At this moment, Kikyo had already grasped her bow and arrow, her resolute and beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Tian, ​​waiting for him to make a decision.

"Go ahead, but be careful."

Just as he was about to see the banyan tree spirit, he was stopped at the last moment by this great monster. Although Lin Tian didn't want to fight it, he was unwilling to miss out on the plant that could complete Isabelle's quest.

After saying that, Lin Tian took out a cherry from his spatial backpack and handed it to Sesshomaru, then transformed into a flame and rushed towards Killua. Seeing that Lin Tian had already acted, Kikyo also drew her bow and fired an arrow imbued with powerful spiritual energy at Killua.

Meanwhile, Sesshomaru revealed his true form, roared at Killua, and charged forward.

(The fight scenes are too bloody to describe in detail...)

Three hours later, Lin Tian stood beside Killua's corpse, bent over and dry heaving. It wasn't because Killua's death was too gruesome, but because eating fifty-two apples had made him nauseous.

"This is probably... a classic case of inflicting a thousand wounds on the enemy while losing eight hundred of your own. Ugh~"

"Lin Tian, ​​are you alright?" Seeing Lin Tian's disheveled appearance, Kikyo ran to his side with small steps and asked with a worried expression.

"It's nothing, just ate too many apples. Ugh~"

"You..." Listening to Lin Tian's explanation, Kikyo's hand, which was about to pat his back, hung in mid-air, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Go quickly and give Sesshomaru a healing pill. If it's any later, he might die."

Lin Tian, ​​enduring his discomfort, took out a pill and handed it to Kikyo. During the fight against Killua, Sesshomaru had primarily acted as a human shield, thus absorbing the most damage. He was now half-lying beside Killua, his body covered in bite marks from snake fangs.

......

"Is this the banyan tree monster you were talking about?"

Lin Tian glanced at the Isabelle figurine in his hand, then at the trembling "little fireball" in front of him, and said to Sesshomaru with disappointment.

“Yes, boss.” Sesshomaru didn’t understand why Lin Tian was so disappointed after seeing the banyan tree spirit.

"Isn't that right, Lin Tian?" Kikyo asked from the side. Compared to Sesshomaru, she understood why Lin Tian was so disappointed.

"No, the figure isn't responding. It's not the plant we're looking for. Sigh, this operation was a complete loss!"

Unconvinced, Lin Tian shook the figurine against the banyan tree fairy a few times, but seeing that the figurine didn't react at all, he sighed in disappointment.

For the sake of such a small demon, plus the consumption of Kikyo and Sesshomaru, they wasted more than a hundred apples and three healing pills this time.

This deal is a loss no matter how you look at it.

"Boss, when I first met Killua, he said something about the banyan tree spirit being a servant of a divine child. Do you think... this divine child might be the one you're looking for?"

Although Sesshomaru didn't understand what Lin Tian and Kikyo were talking about, he recalled that Lin Tian had shielded him from a fatal blow in the battle just now, so he revealed the information that he had previously overlooked.

"A servant of the divine child? A banyan tree spirit? Could it be the sun god Nika...?"

Upon hearing that the banyan tree fairy was a servant of the divine child, Lin Tian suddenly thought of Luffy's Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Nika form, in the One Piece world. Rumor has it that Nika is a god who parasitizes rubber trees.

Can the world of Inuyasha be connected to the world of One Piece? Lin Tian was amused by his own wild imagination.

"Wait! Rubber trees! Banyan trees! Gijimna, Chigimna... Could it be..."

Lin Tian was stunned, and his eyes widened in surprise as he looked at the small fireball in front of him.

The banyan tree belongs to the genus Ficus in the family Moraceae, which includes the suborder Ficus rubberata.

So this banyan tree spirit in front of us might actually be the "god" that parasitizes the rubber tree.

'No, that Killua said he's a servant of God. That means he's not the Nika I was thinking of. But...maybe he knows where Nika is...'

The more Lin Tian thought about it, the more he felt that there was a big secret hidden behind the banyan tree fairy in front of him, and his eyes became curious as he looked at the banyan tree fairy.

---Aside---

I recommend a book!!!

After the divorce, Xiao Yue was surprised to discover that there were no tokusatsu films in the world!

High-quality works such as "Ultraman Tiga" and "Metal Hero Kabuto" emerged from his hands!

Later, a game where you collect cards to exchange for a magic light stick appeared in the convenience store...

Parents gradually became curious as to why their children had suddenly developed a love for learning.

Little monster: "Dear Mom and Dad, I want to buy study materials..."

Chapter 218 The Island in the Lake with a Secret

At this point, Lin Tian had given up on completing Isabelle's task. However, he developed a strong curiosity about the fact that the banyan tree fairy was a servant of the gods.

In the world of Inuyasha, as far as Lin Tian knows, there is no god in the true sense; most of those who claim to be gods are just powerful demons.

So when he heard that the banyan tree spirit before him was a servant of the gods and had a connection with the sun god Nika (he guessed), he felt an urge to investigate further.

"No...don't...hurt me..."

The banyan tree spirit trembled as it looked at Lin Tian's fierce eyes, its tiny body filled with fear that the human before it would devour it.

"I'm not a bad person, how could I possibly hurt you? Tell me, why does Killua call you a servant of God? You seem like a very honest monster, you wouldn't lie, right!"

Lin Tian chuckled kindly. But to the banyan tree spirit, his expression looked like that of a demon about to devour him.

"I...I'm just a fairy who collects dew every day to water the oak seeds. I'm not a servant of God."

The banyan tree fairy, with a mournful face, spoke to Lin Tian in a choked voice.

"Really? Then could you show us the oak seeds you've watered? I think you'd be more than happy to share the fruits of your labor with us, wouldn't you?"

"Of course! Of course! My lord, I'll take you there right now."

Lin Tian didn't utter a single threatening word, but to the banyan tree spirit, every word he said was a threat. Faced with these three demons who could defeat even Killua, the banyan tree spirit had no other choice.

"Very well, then lead the way!"

Seeing that the banyan tree spirit was so obedient, Lin Tian happily patted its head. The pat was very light, but it scared the banyan tree spirit so much that it collapsed to the ground.

"Forehead..."

Seeing the banyan tree spirit's reaction, Lin Tian was embarrassed and stunned for a moment. He asked himself, "I really didn't mean to hurt this banyan tree spirit; it was all just my imagination."

The banyan tree spirit noticed the change in Lin Tian's expression and thought that his behavior had angered the demon. He quickly got up from the ground, and without even cleaning the dirt off his body, he led the three of them toward the oak seeds he was looking after.

Half an hour later, when the banyan tree fairy led them to an island in the middle of a lake, he pointed to the oak seeds placed in a stone pool and said that these were the oak seeds he was currently watering.

On a rock about half a meter high, there was a small trough with about a basin's worth of clear dew, and a seed the size of a broad bean was floating in it.

Lin Tian frowned, his face full of black lines.

'Can these seeds really germinate if soaked in water?'

Anyone who has gone through nine years of compulsory education, or whose family farms, would never soak seeds in water and wait for them to sprout.

Are you sure it will sprout if you water it like that???

Lin Tian used his Observation Haki to sense the seeds in the pool for a long time, but didn't detect anything unusual. He then lowered his head and asked the banyan tree fairy beside him.

"My lord, this oak seed is a gift from the sun god Nika to this island. When I was young, my father told me that this seed needs to be watered with dew that absorbs the essence of the moon, and then it will sprout after nine hundred and ninety years under the sun's rays."

According to my father, this seed was here when his great-great-grandfather received divine grace. We've actually considered taking it out and planting it in the ground, but no matter what method we try, we can't reach it.

Seeing that Lin Tian was puzzled as to why the oak seed had been kept in the pond, the banyan tree spirit quickly explained the reason, afraid that he might say something wrong and displease Lin Tian.

"Is that so... Sesshomaru, go and try to see if you can extract this acorn."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian lowered his head and pondered for a moment, feeling that there must be some secret involved. He then looked up at Sesshomaru and ordered him to help him retrieve the acorn.

"Ah, no!"

Upon seeing this, the banyan tree spirit quickly stood in front of Sesshomaru to prevent him from taking out the oak seed.

"..."

Sesshomaru's attitude towards the banyan tree spirit was not as kind as Lin Tian's. He swung his arm, slapped the banyan tree spirit to the ground, and walked towards the acorn.

"No! There is..."

Zzzzz! Boom!

The banyan tree spirit was not afraid when Sesshomaru knocked him down. He continued to yell at Sesshomaru, trying to stop him from approaching the oak seed. Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, a bolt of lightning appeared in the void near the stone and struck Sesshomaru.

"...It has a barrier. Apart from our clan, other monsters cannot approach it."

Watching Sesshomaru being forced back by the lightning, his fur standing on end like a white lion king, the banyan tree spirit swallowed hard and said nervously.
