An imperceptible cold light flashed in Bai Gufeng's eyes: "There may be more than one fruit on the tree. If you need it, I can give you one."

"Easy to say." Ye Bai also showed a slight smile.

Under the leadership of Bai Gufeng, Ye Bai walked through the vast Qin King's city and came to the top of the mountain behind the city.

A crisp phoenix cry came from the front. The cry was different from that of Qingluan, and the sound was longer.

I saw a fiery red bird flying out of the white mist in the mountains, like a gorgeous fire lotus dancing in the air.

"Is this a black bird?"

"You can also think of it as a phoenix. The bloodline in your Aunt Qin's body is this thing."

While talking, Bai Gufeng pulled Ye Bai back. It seemed that he was a little embarrassed about Xuanniao.

Then, Bai Gufeng took out another set of clothes: "This is the dragon robe and crown that King Qin once wore. In addition, you also need to make some disguises, so that you can hide from the black bird and get you close to the sacred tree."

Although it was strange how Bai Gufeng got the clothes from more than two thousand years ago, Ye Bai still nodded.

Pretending to be Emperor Qin? This is somewhat different from what he thought before.

"Where is the sacred tree?"

"Under the clouds and mist, come up as soon as possible after obtaining the magical fruit. Don't delay down there."

"Okay."

After Ye Bai put on makeup and a fake beard, he walked to the cliff holding the imperial seal high.

After a while, I saw a fiery red black bird flying out of the clouds and mist, calling softly, and slowly flew in front of Ye Bai.

The black bird is very large, about twenty or thirty meters long, and the red feathers on its back are as bright as burning flames.

The eyelashes are very long, and the bird’s pupils are twinkling.

When it saw Ye Bai dressed up as Emperor Qin, it seemed to be very excited, flying back and forth in front of the cliff, singing loudly.

"Cry!"

Ye Bai smiled and could feel the joy coming from Xuanniao.

It seems that this bird has a lot to do with Emperor Qin, and was probably raised by Emperor Qin.

Ye Bai waved his hand, and the black bird immediately stopped in front of Ye Bai, stretched out its head, and motioned for Ye Bai to touch him.

However, the body of the black bird is too big, and the reddish-brown beak is more than one meter long. Ye Bai stepped forward and rubbed the smooth and warm beak twice, and then jumped on the back of the black bird.

Ye Bai pointed to the direction of the sacred tree, and Xuanniao understood it. Its fiery red sky-covering wings shook, and it flew Ye Bai into the clouds.

Bai Gufeng, who was hiding in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, squinted his eyes and said softly: "Qin Luoke failed, I hope you won't let me down."

The black bird flies very fast, but Ye Bai on its back feels very stable, which is a different experience than riding on the head of a little black dragon.

Not long after, I saw a tall, straight and green towering tree looming in the clouds and mist.

This big tree is a hundred meters high, and there is not a single branch from the bottom to the crown. As for the sacred fruit that Bai Gufeng is thinking about, it should be hidden in the dense crown.

Letting the black bird circle around the sacred tree, Ye Bai used his spiritual consciousness to explore the tree crown, but found nothing.

Ye Bai had no choice but to pat the black bird, making it stop where it was, and then he got into the canopy to search for it.

This sacred tree looks very much like the legendary Jianmu.

According to ancient books, building wood is the bridge between the human world and the heaven. It is born in the heaven and earth, is hundreds of feet high, and is connected to the sky by the gods.

However, this sacred tree is only a hundred meters high, so it is an exaggeration to say that it can reach straight to heaven.

To be honest, if you compare the 30-meter-long black bird, the height of this sacred tree is just average.

Soon, Ye Bai found an emerald-green fruit in the dense crown of the tree. The fruit was oval-shaped and exuded a light fragrance.

"Only one?"

Ye Bai looked through the crown of the tree again and didn't find the second one.

It seems that Bai Gufeng has long known that there is only one fruit on the sacred tree.

Ye Bai thought for a while, threw the divine fruit into the space, and jumped back on Xuanniao's back.

After Xuanniao carried Ye Bai away from the sacred tree, he circled twice in the air. Finally, at Ye Bai's urging, he reluctantly sent Ye Bai to the cliff.

Ye Bai took out some spring water and fed it to the black bird, patting its head gently.

After Xuanniao drank the spring water of life, he called loudly twice and rubbed gently in Ye Bai's arms, as if he didn't want to leave.

Ye Bai didn't expect such a big black bird to be so clingy, so he had to force it away.

Finally, the black bird flapped its wings and flew away, hovering in the clouds and mist, still looking at Ye Bai.

Ye Bai waved his hand and disappeared on the cliff.

"How's it going? Have you got the divine fruit?" After seeing Ye Bai come back, Bai Gufeng couldn't wait to come out.

Ye Bai smiled: "Of course, but I'm a little bit surprised why the divine fruit is like this."

While speaking, Ye Bai took out an energy cube redeemed from the system from his arms.

Bai Gufeng showed hesitation: "Is this really a magical fruit?"

"Anyway, it was picked from the sacred tree." Ye Bai weighed the energy cube: "If you don't want it, this sacred fruit will belong to me."

Bai Gufeng was convinced. After all, the energy cube glowed slightly with red light, unlike ordinary things.

However, he regretted: "Is there only one divine fruit?"

Ye Bai also regretted: "Yes, I have been looking for a long time and only found this one. I originally thought there would be two, one for each of you and me, but now there is only one. How to distribute it?"

Bai Gufeng stared at the energy cube and said: "The divine fruit is related to the secret of heaven and man. I don't have long life. If you give it to me, I will help you find another divine fruit when I become a heaven."

"It's not impossible to give it to you, but the sacred tree in the Mustard Seed World has been growing for I don't know how many years it has given birth to a sacred fruit. Just in case..."

"Nothing is wrong. I have other ways to help you become a heavenly being. It just depends on whether you are willing to believe me."

Ye Bai pondered for a moment: "What method?"

Bai Gufeng made a riddle: "Don't worry, I will tell you after I become a heavenly being."

Ye Bai asked again: "Then how did you become a heavenly being? Eat the divine fruit?"

"It is recorded in ancient books that after the immortal bloodline eats the divine fruit, it will take several years to transform and become a heavenly being." Bai Gufeng explained, but it felt a little strange.

He knocked on the energy cube. Can such a hard divine fruit be chewed?

Bai Gufeng glanced at Ye Bai and became suspicious. Is this "magic fruit" really picked from the sacred tree? Or did this kid see something that was deceiving him?

But Ye Bai's acting skills are not bad either. Under Bai Gufeng's gaze, his expression remains as usual without any flaws.

"Ye Bai, I will tell you the coordinates leading to Japan, and where Qi Xiaohei and your nephew are. You can go to Japan first and bring them back to the Mustard Seed World, and then return to Sichuan."

"Okay." Ye Bai's eyes flashed and he nodded in agreement.

......

In the ancient tomb of Daisen in Japan, Qi Xiaohei and Chen Tianyou were hiding in a wooden coffin, not daring to breathe.

There were heavy footsteps outside the coffin, and the two of them quickly lowered their voices.

After the footsteps faded away, the two of them let out a breath of relief.
