Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#799 - The treasure of improving your feet, the leaves of the hibiscus tree

Chu Hao stared at the large tree.

It seemed to be just a tree adorned with numerous magical treasures, at most with some kind of preservation function.

However, Chu Hao felt that something was off.

Based on Chu Hao's understanding of Crow's Nest Zen Master after raiding his home, Chu Hao didn't think such a large object would be placed in Crow's Nest Zen Master's treasury for no reason.

So, could there be some mystery hidden within this tree?

Chu Hao has always liked exploring knowledge. When he noticed this lingering doubt in his mind, Chu Hao kicked out without a second thought!

This is how I explore knowledge!

Chu Hao's kick landed on the big tree, and it was clear that this towering ancient tree could not withstand Chu Hao's kick.

But strangely, the slowly falling tree gradually transformed into rain-like starlight, rapidly converging.

Chu Hao raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of surprise.

"Could it be!"

Sure enough, when the tree's rain-like starlight completely converged, a strangely shaped leaf came into Chu Hao's view.

This leaf was quite large, its leaf plate winding and twisting, resembling a coiled dragon.

Chu Hao reached out to take the leaf, his face with undisguised excitement.

"Damn, it's really a leaf from the Fusang Tree!"

Even getting a thousand peaches wouldn't have made Chu Hao as excited as he was now.

Although the Ginseng Fruit, Peach, Yellow Plum, and Fusang Tree are all considered to be the four great innate spiritual roots,

there's no question that the existence of the Fusang Tree is a thousand times more precious than the other three. The first three are really not worthy of comparison with the Fusang Tree.

It's just that there happened to be only four innate spiritual roots, so the Fusang Tree was reluctantly included, which was a great injustice.

Chu Hao had heard some rumors about the Fusang Tree.

The Fusang wood is where the ten suns bathe, residing in the water, without dry branches, the leaves winding and twisting, the leaves in three layers, each layer with six leaves on the left and right, the lowest layer on the right with a fist and a foot standing and spreading its wings, wanting to fly..."

That's right, that was the Three-legged Golden Crow.

The Three-legged Golden Crow clan all lived on the Fusang Tree. Later, after the Lich War, Kua Fu chased the sun, and Yi shot down the nine suns. After many battles, they could no longer see the light of day.

After the Lich Cataclysm, the Three-legged Golden Crow clan, including the powerful figures Donghuang Taiyi, Dijun, and Xihe, completely disappeared without a trace.

The decline of the ancient Heavenly Court was only announced after that.

And after the decline of the ancient Heavenly Court, the Fusang Tree also disappeared. Within the Three Realms and Six Paths, no one could find even half a fallen leaf from the Fusang Tree.

Because the Fusang Tree has never been leaked out, even the Wu clan rarely obtained treasures related to the Fusang Tree back then,

so few people know the true value of this thing.

That's why some people included the Fusang Tree when compiling the four great innate spiritual roots.

But in fact, the preciousness of the Fusang Tree cannot be compared to the other three spiritual roots combined.

Just because this is the treasure tree that the demon clan's royal family relied on to survive!

Chu Hao couldn't hide the excitement on his face when he got this Fusang Tree leaf.

Although Chu Hao couldn't see the effect of this Fusang Tree leaf...

But the system could!

[Fusang Tree Leaf]

[Can be used to improve foundation]

The description of just a few words,

made Chu Hao stunned for three seconds.

Foundation?

Improve foundation?!

Is this so outrageous?!

You must know that no matter what race, they are born with a predetermined foundation, and the foundation determines the upper limit of life.

So, you see, anyone who can become a half-step quasi-sage is never an ordinary person with ordinary bloodlines.

At least the great powers Chu Hao has seen so far are all of great origin, either primordial powerhouses or supreme heroes!

The demon clan demonstrates this even more vividly. Those who can cultivate to become half-step quasi-sages on their own are only Bi Fang, Primordial Dragon Whale, and the like.

Ordinary demons, even if they cultivate for a lifetime, cannot reach the great power realm.

Golden Immortal is already the limit of foundation.

Those monsters who survived the supreme cataclysm, although they have lived for a long time, still rarely awaken their sage nature and become half-step quasi-sages.

Because this is already the limit of their foundation.

Within the Three Realms and Six Paths, there is only one kind of creature whose foundation is more difficult to grasp.

Humans.

That's right, the existence of the Four Emperors, the existence of Nezha, and the existence of Chu Hao are all examples of human foundation.

The foundation of humans is the weakest among all living beings, this is generally acknowledged.

You see, since the Journey to the West cataclysm began, among the hundreds of trillions of humans in the human world, almost none have become half-step quasi-sages...

This is not an accident, even in the Investiture of the Gods cataclysm, there were very few humans who could reach the half-step quasi-sage step on their own.

Compared to other races, humans don't even have the innate advantages that can be inherited, such as bloodlines and talents, basically equivalent to beasts.

However, in the long river of human history, extremely powerful and outrageous individuals have been born, as if they were blessed with luck and had extremely strong innate advantages.

The existence of humans is the most illogical existence in this world.

Because the room for improvement for humans is almost endless, and even the three saints who now reign supreme in the Three Realms must be crowned with the word "human."

The foundation of the human race is indeed incomparably low.

You see, even though Nezha has been fed so many elixirs by Chu Hao, he still can't find the way to enter the quasi-sage realm.

Even if he has sage nature, it is completely limited by his foundation.

And the Fusang Tree leaf in Chu Hao's hand can change the foundation, Chu Hao himself can't believe this almost cheat-like ability.

"Damn, no wonder the Three-legged Golden Crow clan was able to create so many strong people, and none of the Three-legged Golden Crows were inferior."

"This is directly being born on a treasure mountain!"

Chu Hao was very emotional. He only had one Fusang Tree leaf, but thinking about the Three-legged Golden Crow clan, they directly owned an entire Fusang Tree!

If Chu Hao discovers the Fusang Tree one day, combined with Chu Hao's Shennong Cauldron, creating a great power legion is not a dream.

Of course, the immediate matter is the most important.

Chu Hao carefully stored the Fusang Tree leaf, then swaggered and turned to leave.

Multiple experiences of raiding homes allowed Chu Hao to check for clues several times before leaving, ensuring that nothing was missed before Chu Hao left leisurely.

However, Chu Hao suddenly turned back and secretly left a little clue.

Although everyone is basically wary of things like framing, Chu Hao still chose to leave some small clues.

Not much, just enough to make the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha speculate.
