In the midst of a mountain range, the peaks are pitch-black and sparsely vegetated, and below, there is a small valley. In contrast to the bare and desolate scenery above the mountain peaks, the valley is full of greenery, as if all the surrounding greenery has gathered there.

But on top of the dark peak, there stood a few tall trees, with lush branches, which contrasted sharply with the desolation of the whole peak, and seemed extremely abrupt.

Suddenly, a slight ripple appeared in the space near a giant tree, like a wave of water, and then a white sword tip with blood-red lines appeared from the space. The sharp edge on the sword is contained but not released, the sword intent is circulating, and the sword qi is extremely condensed.

"Poof~"

“～”

A slight sound came out, and the tip of the sword pierced directly into the trunk of the tree, the light on the sword flashed, and the sword qi poured out, and in an instant, it exploded in the trunk, wantonly destroying its internal structure. At the same time, wisps of red karmic fire swarmed in, not damaging the trunk of the tree, but burning violently. In the karmic fire, a faint light faintly took on the shape of a tree, and the Dao Divine Chain that was transformed by the karmic fire was imprisoned and instantly burned into nothingness.

I saw that the big tree shook violently at the moment when the long sword entered the body, and the leaves made a "rustling" sound, like a breeze, but in the next moment it fell silent, as if nothing had happened, the trees still stood on the top of the mountain, but there was a small sword mark on its trunk, and the entire trunk had become a pile of sawdust, and there was no life.

In the other directions, I saw a sword suddenly emerge from the void without a sound, and then in the next moment, it mercilessly completely destroyed the vitality of these faintly enlightened dryads. In just a few breaths, the dryads standing on the top of the mountain as sentinels had all turned into corpses. But from the outside, it was still standing on the top of the mountain, and there was nothing unusual to see, and only with the perception of the divine soul did it find that its breath was gone.

Two white figures appeared, standing beside the dead dryad, covering their bodies with the flourishing branches and leaves of the dryad, completely constricting their breath, silently staring at the valley below, it was Xue Qinghan and Luo Shuang.

It has been several days since Xue Qinghan and his party came to this small world, but for them, the situation has not changed. As long as it appears, it is always discovered, chased and surrounded by various monsters controlled by the Pu Demon Tree, but the body of the Pu Demon Tree has never been seen, which makes Xue Qinghan and others hate it and are helpless.

Xue Qinghan looked at the valley below through the branches and leaves, but he didn't dare to release the power of his divine soul to perceive, he could vaguely feel that in the valley below, there were several particularly powerful qi machines spreading out without any scruples, just in terms of momentum, it was much stronger than Xue Qinghan, and there were six or seven that reached the Dao God Realm. In addition, Xue Qinghan could also feel an obscure aura diffusing from time to time, even more powerful than the previous ones, I don't know if it has reached the realm of unity.

"There's something strange in the valley below, and it seems that there's something hidden that could help these dryads unlock their minds. After observing for a moment, Xue Qinghan spoke.

At the entrance to the valley below, some treemen in half-human form came in and out, constantly transporting some ordinary trees into the valley. Later, another tree man sent it out of the valley and planted it outside the valley, where a forest was full of greenery, but it was no longer an ordinary tree, but it had a spirit and the characteristics of a demon.

"Well, it should be a spiritual thing that has something to do with the soul. Luo Shuang said softly.

Xue Qinghan nodded, he also felt that it should be something related to the divine soul, and it was also an extremely amazing treasure. After all, being able to evolve ordinary trees into dryads on a large scale so easily and spiritually powerful should not be underestimated.

Another point is that Xue Qinghan can clearly feel the hunger and thirst coming from the depths of his soul, and he is full of longing for the things below, which he has never encountered, and it seems that there is a voice in the depths of his soul telling him that it is very important to need things below.

After Xue Qinghan sensed it carefully, he found that the source of the hunger and thirst came from, but it was the seed that inexplicably melted into the lotus platform of the chaotic sea in his dantian source realm, which was the seed of the karmic fire red lotus, and the karmic fire that was wrapped around the divine soul was originally one existence, so that feeling directly spread to the depths of Xue Qinghan's divine soul.

Xue Qinghan looked inward, but found that the spark-like seed was flowing with a faint halo at this time, and a stripe of dao emerged, and the flame vaguely turned into the shape of a red lotus, with a rich rhyme, and the aura of the avenue was pervasive, revealing endless mystery, with a demonic beauty, so that people's spirits couldn't help but be immersed in it and couldn't extricate themselves.

Xue Qinghan couldn't help frowning when he looked at the flawless flame lotus shadow that was as magnificent as a work of art, and the seed that was permeated with a rich Dao rhyme. The origin of this seed He also checked many ancient books before finding it in the sporadic description, but he was shocked at first, but he never thought that this kind of thing would be in the strange world under the Snow King's Mansion, and the pit dragon was willing to let himself take it. But he didn't know that the fate of this thing was not up to the dark dragon at all, and there were other people who could decide.

The karmic fire red lotus, one of the three twelve-grade lotus flowers that was differentiated from the legendary Creation Blue Lotus, burned and bloomed on the shore of the soul sea, what kind of mystery was that, anyway, Xue Qinghan felt that it was so illusory. After all, whether there is reincarnation in the world has always been a big debate in the cultivation world, because no one has ever seen the underworld, the underworld, let alone reincarnation.

But now it seems that even if this karmic fire red lotus is only in a seed state, it is still not such a simple existence, and it can directly affect himself from the depths of his soul, and it is extremely spiritual, which makes him a little worried, after all, it is too weird.

The red lotus mark at the center of Xue Qinghan's eyebrows seemed to be a little more vivid, but it was a little scorching, and Xue Qinghan's clear black eyes were all tinged with a faint red, as if there were red flames swaying and burning in his pupils.

"Whew~"

Xue Qinghan took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and shook his head, it seems that he has not yet found that this karmic fire red lotus is too threatening, so he is too lazy to think too much, at least for now The benefits brought to Xue Qinghan are huge, and the karmic fire forging soul, Xue Qinghan can clearly feel that his divine soul has become more and more pure, and it is constantly strengthening.

And the Dao chain engraved on the Dao Yan chessboard is actually an extremely mysterious divine soul scripture, which is unfathomable and short, but it directly points to the root of the Great Dao, and it is also an extremely mysterious divine soul supernatural power. It's a pity that with Xue Qinghan's comprehension, supplemented by the power of the Dao Yan chessboard, Xue Qinghan still can't comprehend his skin, and it is his limit to simply and rudely use the entire Dao Divine Chain against the enemy.

"Let's go back first, find a chance to touch the valley, if we can, I really want to set a fire to extinguish this place, and let all these annoying things turn into black charcoal, but I don't know if that bastard Pu Demon Tree has anything to do with this place. Xue Qinghan gritted his teeth and said. After a few days, being chased by such a group of plant essences, Xue Qinghan's mood was not very good, and his resentment was not small.

Luo Shuang glanced at Xue Qinghan, nodded slightly, and looked at the valley below, a faint cold glow flashed in her eyes. The two of them paused for a moment, then turned and left, disappearing at the end of the mountain.

The night covers the heavens and the earth, there are no stars in the sky, there is no sun, moon and stars, but for some reason there is a change of day and night. At night, the sky was so dark that there was no light. Of course, for the cultivators of Xue Qinghan's current realm, whether it is day or night vision is not very affected, and the power of divine soul perception is completely unrelated to the brightness of the light.

The valley is so striking in this dim world, the valley is actually exuding a soft but brilliant light, and the surrounding trees that have opened their minds also emit a faint green light From a distance, this area is like a lake with green waves, and the aura is overflowing with a bit of dreamy color.

At the entrance of the valley, strange figures went in and out, which seemed to be a bit lively. These dryads already have the ability to transform into human form, but the transformation is incomplete, the overall appearance of the common brown of trees, with strange lines, can clearly see the true color of wood, the head is not hair, but a green canopy, the leaves "rustle" under the night wind.

"These are not dryads, but the Treants, unlike those dryads outside, they are more inclined to the goblin clan than to the demon beasts. "Dark Feather's entire body seems to melt into the night, obviously standing beside him, but with the spiritual eye, he still only sees a pitch black, I have to say, worthy of the name of the dark night, the elf clan, sure enough, the dark night is their home field.

"Treants?"

"Well, it's also one of the intelligent races, with extremely high intelligence, unlike those orcs. The human forms here are all treants, and the aura on their bodies is very different from that of demons, and I can feel it. Dark Feather affirmed.

Xue Qinghan's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything more. In fact, when he and Luo Shuang came to check during the day today, they felt the difference between those humanoid trees, but neither of them had ever seen them, and they hadn't even heard of any tree people, so they didn't bother to think about it so much. And now, too, it doesn't matter what kind of race these people are on the other side, he wants to know more about what exists in the valley and how to get his hands on it.

But since it's an intelligent race, no matter what you do, it should have a certain purpose, right? I don't know what these dryads are for.
