Chapter 1157 The Truth
"That sycamore tree is said to be the seed of an ancient tree, and it won't age and wither even after thousands of years.
However, the aftermath of the battle of the gods destroyed the entire Nanhuang Daze area, and also burned down the sacred phoenix tree.
There is also a saying that after the fall of the Phoenix couple, the sacred sycamore tree could not live alone, so it withered and died, turning into black ash.
All in all, this sad fairy tale has been handed down ever since.
People of later generations, in order to thank and commemorate the Phoenix couple, have been spreading their legends.
Years after the end of the Great War of the Gods, the continent has returned to peace, and all ethnic groups are resting and recuperating.
By chance, a middle-aged human couple found two gems by chance while exploring the ruins of Nanhuang Daze.
Those are two heart-shaped gemstones, which are said to be the sacred heart of the Phoenix couple.
The couple experienced life and death in the Southern Wilderness Daze, and finally escaped from the Southern Wilderness Daze, so they stopped here to live in seclusion.
At that time, it was just a small village. After the middle-aged couple learned about the legend of the phoenix, they built a pagoda and enshrined the two sacred hearts.
Since then, more and more people have gathered here to take root and multiply here.
After hundreds of years, the original middle-aged couple is long gone, but the pagoda and the sacred heart remain forever.
What used to be a small village has also developed into a bustling Nanhuang City, and it has become the only place for adventurers to enter the Nanhuang Daze.
Adventurers from all over the world, after learning about the legend of the Phoenix bird, will go to the holy tower to pay homage, and ask the Phoenix bird to bless them so that they can enter and leave the Southern Wilderness Daze smoothly. "
When Nanhuang City Lord spoke up to this point, he paused for a moment, with a look of anger on his face.
"It was originally a good thing. People of all ethnic groups thanked and worshiped the divine phoenix, commemorating them forever.
But there are always some despicable people with evil plans, trying to win the legendary Sacred Heart of the Phoenix.
Therefore, there were several fights and brawls in the holy tower three thousand years ago, which almost destroyed the holy tower.
After those incidents, the Nanhuang city lord at that time ordered the entrance to the holy tower to be closed forever, and everyone could only watch and pay homage outside the tower, and could not enter the tower to pay homage.
Later, I don't know when, the monsters in the Southern Wilderness Daze would rush out of the Great Lake every few years, and crazily attack the Southern Wilderness City.
The monsters can't understand human language, so no one knows why they went crazy and why they attacked Nanhuang City.
However, the city lords of all dynasties have speculated that the monsters' attack on Nanhuang City may have something to do with the sacred heart of the phoenix bird.
Perhaps, those monsters want to win the Sacred Heart and enhance their own strength.
Or, they regarded the divine phoenix as their ancestors and wanted to take back their ancestors' relics.
In addition, in the beast tide that broke out in the past, the strongest monster leader was only in the Tianyuan realm.
I don't know why, this time the beast horde actually has a demon king of the soul refining realm appear..."
The story of the Nanhuang city lord is finally finished, and the tone is still a bit complicated and emotional.
After Ji Tianxing listened, he finally understood the whole story.
Although he knew that the story told by the Nanhuang city lord was not complete, and there were still some loopholes and places that could not withstand scrutiny.
But after all, this is a myth and legend handed down after the Great War of the Gods. No one has personally experienced it, and it is all passed on by word of mouth. How can there be no omissions and flaws?
After being silent for a while, he nodded and said to the Nanhuang City Lord: "This fairy tale is really touching, the phoenix bird is indeed worthy of being a holy beast, with a sacred heart that helps the world and loves all races.
The story you just told may not be complete and true, but it also has high credibility.
Moreover, tens of millions of years have passed, and no one can find out the truth, so there is no need to pursue anything. "
Xiao Han's degree of belief in this fairy tale is obviously not as high as Ji Tianxing's.
He nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "Everyone just listen to these myths and stories, and don't need to delve into them."
The Nanhuang city lord could only obey his orders and said nothing more.
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought for a while before making up his mind, and said to Nanhuang City Lord: "The sky eagle destroyed the holy tower before, and I didn't see any sacred heart.
I hunted it down to Daze, and after killing it, I didn't find it.
If you think there is a sacred heart in the holy tower, you might as well send someone to look for it in the ruins. "
Hearing what he said, Xiao Han, the Nanhuang City Lord and others all showed expressions of shock and exclaimed inconceivably.
"What? Mr. Ji, you...you actually beheaded that sky eagle? That's a powerhouse at the sixth level of Soul Refining Realm!"
"Master Ji can actually kill the alien beast Skyhawk? He really is the number one genius of our clan, the unrivaled man!"
"Master Ji has such extraordinary strength at such a young age, he will definitely be a world-class hero in the future, and even become a generation of supreme!"
Everyone was shocked from the bottom of their hearts and praised Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing waved his hand and said a few words of self-effacing.
He looked at the Nanhuang City Lord solemnly in his eyes, and said in a solemn tone: "Facts have proved that the holy tower has gone through thousands of years, and it is no longer the holy tower it used to be.
According to legend, the Sacred Heart of the Phoenix enshrined in the holy tower may have disappeared many years ago, or it may have never existed.
After this incident, I feel that you don't have to rebuild the holy tower anymore.
That ancient fairy tale has been rarely mentioned so far, and almost no one visits it anymore.
On the contrary, the monsters in Nanhuang Daze, always thinking about the legendary Sacred Heart of the Phoenix, kept attacking Nanhuang City. This is not a good thing. "
Hearing what he said, Nanhuang City Master nodded in agreement and said: "That's right, Mr. Ji is right, and my subordinates will not rebuild the holy tower again.
That fairy tale is just a legend, and it will eventually dissipate with the passage of time.
However, the people of our Southern Deserted City have been living in the shadow of the beast tide, but it is a real harm.
The holy tower is destroyed, and that fairy tale will also be forgotten.
The subordinates believe that in the future, the monsters in the Southern Wilderness will not attack the Southern Wilderness City again..."
The matter was settled.
The Nanhuang city lord sent someone to prepare a banquet to warmly entertain Ji Tianxing and Xiao Han and express the gratitude of the people in the city.
But both Ji Tianxing and Xiao Han refused, and they didn't care about such false names.
Moreover, the city is in a mess, the people are not settled, and the aftermath work has not been completed.
They just asked for two secret rooms and went to meditate and rest.
After a night of meditation and breath adjustment, both of them recovered their mana and became energetic again.
In the early morning of the next day, King Jinshan and hundreds of Earth Spirit warriors under his command also completed the rebuilding of Nanhuang City and returned to the World of Swords to rest.
The Nanhuang City, which was still devastated last night, returned to its original state in the early morning, as if nothing had happened.
At three poles in the sun, Ji Tianxing and Xiao Han left Nanhuang City under the welcome of the Nanhuang city lord, many nobles, and the people of the city.
