The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

53. The Instigation of God of Books

Translator: Ning LL

Tree of the World in the Heaven God Mountain Range couldn’t be considered as the real Tree of the World.

Trillions of years ago, an expert picked up the stump of the real Tree of the World by accident. Then he cultivated the stump with the Fountain of Life. Ever since then, the descendants of that expert guarded the Tree for generations.

As time went by, more and more people knew about the existence of Tree of the World and wanted to get the Tree’s fruits.

Then the descendants of that expert were eliminated at a shockingly fast speed. At last, the whole family of that expert were nearly exterminated under the siege of a few mysterious families. After that, Tree of the World went into the hands of those families. Only one of the descendants of that expert survived and he had been pursued by the people of those mysterious families ever since then.

However, those families had disagreement about distribution of their spoils and fought with each other for fifty fruits.

In the end, the existence of Tree of the World was known to the entire God and Demon Kingdom, the Heaven and the Demon World.

As a result, more and more forces joined the fight for the fruits of Tree of the World which happened every one thousand years. The casualties kept increasing. Someone had even found out the truth about Tree of the World.

Then everyone knew that the Tree in the Heaven God Mountain Range was merely a stump which paled in comparison with the real Tree of the World. Even so, the fight for those fruits never ended, because the fruits born by a stump every one thousand years were still full of the essence of wood.

The essence of wood was very useful for the persons who were eager to make a breakthrough in their cultivation.

Not only would it create strong power to help a cultivator make a breakthrough, it could also rebuild the cultivator’s body, or say, thoroughly remould that body.

The most important thing was, the chance for a cultivator to reach the next grade was two hundred percent with the help of the fruit.

That was also why everyone in the God and Demon Kingdom was crazy about the fruit. Some self-cultivators were even willing to risk their lives for it.

However, what really surprised God of Books was the fruit on Feng Xi’s palm.

The essence of wood inside of this fruit was unprecedentedly rich. Or rather, that was the purest fruit God of Books had ever seen since he was created by King of the Netherworld.

Not only did this fruit contain the essence of wood, it also possessed pure energy.

God of Books already knew who had presented Feng Xi with this fruit, and that was no other than the real Tree of the World.

However, God of Books also knew that King of the Netherworld must have made the greatest contribution to this.

“Master, you only took one of the fruits?” God of Books, having hesitated for a while, asked that gingerly. Clearly, there was a plan in his head again.

“Of course not.” Feng Xi pretended not to see the look on the face of God of Books while admiring the fruit in his hand.

God of Books, drooling at the mouth, said, “How many fruits are there in the ring? Can you…”

“I never counted. At that time, I just picked as many fruits as I could. But I’m pretty sure there must be more than a thousand fruits.” Feng Xi thought carefully. At that time, he did have put all the fruits in his sight into the ring.

“Master, can you give two of your fruits to me and God of Bad Luck? They are actually quite useful for us too.” God of Books said that eagerly while gazing at the fruit in Feng Xi’s hand, wishing that he could pounce on it.

“You don’t cultivate yourself, what do you need the fruit for? I plan to sell them for money!” Feng Xi remembered that God of Books had introduced himself as a moving library with all the knowledge in his head but couldn’t attack or plot.

“Master, I’m afraid you don’t understand that. Although I am known as the know-it-all, I actually have my limits. For example, the secret documents are also a kind of book, but I can not intrude into those documents because I’m still not powerful enough. There is also a kind of crystal called Black Crystal which is used for recording information, but it is too hard for me to decipher the words on it because I don’t have enough Spiritual Power. In a word, I have to improve myself!”

God of Books had bragged that he knew everything because his pride made him do so, considering that Feng Xi knew nothing about this world. In fact, God of Books was restricted strictly and could only interact with the paper books now.

God of Books was afraid that Feng Xi wouldn’t agree. Then he continued, “Master, just think of it. If I become more powerful, I’ll be able to help you out when there is an emergency. Right now, the Black Crystal has been widely used in the Three Worlds. As long as I can intrude into the Black Crystal, I’ll get more information for you. That’ll be great to you.”

“Sounds like you do have your uses. Fine, I’ll give you one, but why should I give God of Bad Luck one fruit too?” Feng Xi waved his hand. Actually, he had wanted to give each of them one fruit and now he was only pretending.

God of Bad Luck got anxious right away hearing that Feng Xi wanted a reason. Then he couldn’t help but squeak.

God of Books said immediately, “Master, don’t you remember that God of Bad Luck is able to bring bad luck to the people other than you? After he lost tens of thousands of years of cultivation, the bad luck he could bring to others is less effective. Think about it, if you want to avenge someone in the future, God of Bad Luck would come in handy. Also, he still couldn’t speak because his cultivation base is too low now.”

God of Bad Luck squeaked again as an agreement.

Feng Xi was persuaded by God of Books at once. Thinking of the two annoying incidents he had run into, he felt that it was very necessary to improve the two Gods’ capacity. Perhaps he would really need the two Gods in the future as God of Books had said. However…

“I can give you, but you can not let my leader know about it, otherwise…”

“Xi…”

“Eh…”
