Chapter 36: Yuki Aoki
He kept weaving through the trees, but as he fled as fast as he could, the trees in front of him became thinner and thinner, and he turned around to see the ice arrow shooting straight at him, throwing a crystal fruit in the direction of the Eater of Souls, and his body quickly rushed out of the woods.
Seeing this, the Soul Eater Ant jumped with a huge body and caught the crystal fruit thrown over, this is the holy fruit of their clan, and it can't be destroyed. The man took advantage of this opportunity and flew out of the woods.
Not long after the man rushed out, the Soul Eater Ant wanted to chase it, but the crystal fruit had already arrived, and outside the woods, it was not suitable for them to act, so they did not chase it out.
"Boy, for the sake of you returning this crystal fruit, this seat won't trouble you, but if you find it again, you can leave my little life for me!" The immature child's voice suddenly sounded in the woods, no one thought that the soul eater ant would actually spit out words, not long after the man rushed out of the woods, the huge body of the soul eater ant suddenly became smaller, and then, a pink little girl suddenly appeared in the direction where the soul eater ant was.
The girl was very young, only about 10 years old in a normal person. She looked out of the woods again, turned and disappeared into the woods as if she had never been there, and the woods regained their quietness.
"Who?"
Ziyue, who was bathing, stretched out her hand, and the water splashed, like a wild dragon coiling, and suddenly attacked into the weeds on the shore.
"Oops!" Xuanyuan Yichen might as well be for a while, but he was hit by the splash, suddenly appeared, and smiled awkwardly, "That, lady, you continue, the husband is here to help you watch, watch!" ”
Ziyue took out a white dress from the storage bracelet, her body turned, and the clothes flew, covering Xuanyuan Yichen's gaze, and quickly put it on herself.
She flew out of the water and stood in front of Xuanyuan Yichen, "Why are you here?" ”
"Of course I'm here, and I'm wondering? How do you run to the forbidden land, don't you know the danger here? With your cultivation in the merger period, there will only be no scum left here! He scolded, although it was a reproachful word, but the concern contained in it also made Ziyue a little moved.
After all, she had never been so cared for by a man for so many years, and of course, her father didn't count.
"I don't know what kind of place this is, I'm tired of escaping death for half a month, do you know where to get out?" She walked to Xuanyuan Yichen's side, picking up the weeds beside her, her eyes glancing at him from time to time.
"I don't know, I followed you in, I haven't figured out the secret of the top of the mountains until now, but when you left, three words suddenly appeared on the stele, 'Queqiao Immortal', I guess it may be a clue for us to go out." He uttered his guess, and suddenly wanted to look into the forest.
"Let's go, maybe there's a place where we can find the answer!" He pulled her, and suddenly wanted to run in the dense forest, although the soul eater ant was very powerful, but he was not invincible to her, but the person he was looking for did not find, and the other party's cultivation was equal to him, and if he wanted to kill, it must be a lose-lose scene, and the one chasing him was just a soul eater ant in its infancy, and the adult had not yet appeared.
"Where?" At this time, they didn't compete against each other anymore, and Ziyue was naturally pulled by him and rushed towards the dense forest. In this way, they still feel like a husband and wife, but the two people involved do not have this awareness.
Although Xuanyuan Yichen called her a lady from time to time, he didn't make any out-of-the-ordinary movements, which was completely different from his hooligan appearance.
"A very strange place, you will know when you arrive, but we must be careful, there are Soul Eaters guarding it!" He told her to be careful, but she didn't know it, and someone knew it when he said the Eater of Souls.
According to ancient records, the Soul Eater Ant is an ancient creature, a powerful beast between a fierce beast and a spirit beast, its main ability, is its attack, with the effect of freezing the soul, any creature is shot by an ice arrow, the divine sense will be instantly frozen, unless your strength is far beyond the soul eater ant who shoots the ice arrow, otherwise the soul will freeze and die.
This creature is the most dangerous in heaven and earth, and it is an extremely powerful spirit beast that is attacked by divine souls.
However, this spirit beast was extinct long ago during the Great Ancient War, how could it appear here now. Moreover, hundreds of millions of years have passed, and this soul eater ant has long been different from the original, and may be able to transform into a human walk.
These were all Ziyue's guesses, but she didn't expect that her guess was completely correct, which they only knew when they met it again.
Xuanyuan Yichen took her to shuttle through the forest constantly, he didn't dare to fly with her, because in this dangerous forest, the Soul Eater ants have a strong perception of spiritual power, as long as they fly, they need to use spiritual power, and the Soul Eater ants can sense in a moment that at that time, they will fall into a situation of running for their lives again.
The two of them kept shuttling through the woods, and the surrounding trees were getting taller and taller, and in just a moment, Xuanyuan Yichen stopped, and Ziyue was unprepared and hit his head on his back.
"Wow! Stopping and not saying a word, it hurts, do you know? She rubbed her forehead and looked at him with a complaining expression.
And the latter was a little crying and laughing, everyone is a cultivator, this girl doesn't even have the consciousness of a cultivator, and she doesn't know how she survived in the past half a month.
"Okay, it doesn't hurt!" Xuanyuan Yichen turned around, rubbed her forehead, and exhaled softly, speaking softly, as if standing beside him was his most beloved woman.
She pouted and looked at him angrily, seeing that his body was hairy. This Xuanyuan Yichen doesn't have a fever, why is he so gentle today? It must be that the environment here is not right, and when you go out, it will definitely become the same as before.
But she didn't want to think about it, wasn't she herself different from the outside world? Didn't she see him as her only partner in her heart? In this foreign land, the two of them can rely on each other when they come to the outside world, and if they are still-for-tat, then in this strange forbidden place, I don't know if they can get out alive.
"Let's go!" Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly spoke up, pulling back her cranky thoughts. It was only then that she felt the unusual aura around her.
These trees are several times larger than the others, and their huge branches are spread out like a giant umbrella holding the sky to the sky. The leaves are not the usual green, but slightly white, and between the dense leaves, you can vaguely see some crystal clear leaves, like handicrafts made of crystal.
He took her on a walk among these strange trees, but the more she walked, the quieter the atmosphere became, and at first he could hear some insects and birds, but as they went deeper, the heavens and the earth seemed to fall into a still, and there was no insects and birds, and there was no wind and grass.
As they walked, they seemed to be spinning in place, and when Ziyue once again passed by a tree that she had cut through when she was bored, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Xuanyuan Yichen, we seem to be going in circles in place." She called out to the man walking beside her, pointing to the trunk of the tree that had been cut earlier, "Look, this is where we just walked. ”
Xuanyuan Yichen looked at the scratches on the big tree, the scratches were very clear, and there were some sap from the trunk on it, it was obvious that this was just scratched, and the time was very short, otherwise the sap on the big tree would not have dried up by now.
"Yue'er, we should have fallen into some kind of formation, and this formation is beyond the scope of our perception, if it weren't for you to draw traces on the tree, we would still be wandering around this forest until now." He reached out and wiped a little sap on his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently.
"No, the sap of this tree is not right!" When the sap in the hand touches the person's skin, it begins to change, and the sap, which had no taste, suddenly exudes a refreshing fragrance, and a clear breath suddenly fills the entire space.
"Immediately close the six senses, this fragrance is very strange." He noticed that something was wrong, and quickly shuttled through the forest with her. But no matter which way they fled, the aura still lingered around them, and again and again, when they were exhausted, they looked back and were still under the tree.
The sap was still flowing out, but in their eyes, it was so desperate.
"Yue'er, we may die here, are you afraid?" Xuanyuan Yichen leaned his back against the tree, while Ziyue half-leaned beside him, panting slightly.
"Don't be afraid, everyone dies, it's just a matter of time or time, but I don't worry about Yanbao, he is still so young, he lost his parents, how will he live in the future." She leaned gently against him and smiled bitterly in her heart.
"It's okay, Yanbao will be taken care of." He gently patted her on the shoulder and comforted.
"Hmm!" As the words fell, the aura in the surrounding air became more and more obvious, and the spiritual power in their bodies was suddenly frozen at this moment. In the woods, a large amount of smoke suddenly appeared, and the green color of the fresh grass was full of fear.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that I was designed to die in my last life, but I died here in this life, Yue'er, I never thought that it was you who accompanied me in the end!" He chuckled, as the extent of the erosion became worse because of his strength.
In front of his eyes, gradually blurred, and soon, all the surrounding scenery disappeared under his eyes, time seemed to be imprisoned, staying at this moment, the two of them leaned on each other, and gradually slept in this strange green mist.
The breeze blows, the leaves on the earth, the leaves rattle, and the pink grass burrows out of the ground from under the trees, poking its head out, curiously looking at everything in the world.
A large tree surrounded by dozens of people stands proudly in the middle of the sky, holding up a large white umbrella to block the light in the sky. The big trees are crystal clear, revealing the color of fairy tales.
The emerald green trunk exudes a strong breath of life, the white crystal leaves, swaying with the wind, occasionally one or two pieces are carried away by the wind, floating in the air, turning into a seed, falling to the ground, blending into the soil, just a moment, it breaks through the soil, the whole body glows with white light, covering the entire space at the bottom of the tree.
"Hmm!"
A low whisper broke the silence in the forest. Under the big tree, there were two men and women snuggling up to each other, in the white light, like a god-king who came to the heavens.
The fingertips of the woman in white who were half lying on the man's body shook slightly, and then she opened her smart eyes, but in the originally beautiful eyes, there were still some confused colors at this time.
"Where is this? Paradise? Ziyue's eyes widened, looking at the strange tree above her head and the white grass around her, remembering what happened before, thinking that she was dead.
"Hmm" The voice from below woke her up in confusion. She suddenly rolled over, rolled to the side, braced herself up, and gradually got up.
Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly opened his eyes, turned over, and saw Ziyue standing next to him, his eyebrows tight, and his face was full of confusion looking at the big tree in front of him with a cyan trunk but white crystal leaves.
Slowly walked to her side, "Look at what, so tangled!" ”
"Well, I think this tree is familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen it?" She still frowned, answering his question without looking back.
"Do you mean this tree?" He pointed to the towering ancient tree in front of him and looked at her with a smile, "It exudes such a strong breath of life, but the leaves are crystal white, don't you remember it now?" ”
"No, I just think it's a little similar to the legendary Aoki Snow Tree, but the Aoki Snow Tree is not as tall as it, and it is a miracle that it grows to two people tall, and this one in front of me is so big, how can it be?" She guessed, then shook her head again.
"Silly girl, this is the Aoki Snow Tree, but this is the mother tree, that's why it's so big, after all, the mother tree of the Aoki Snow Tree disappeared in front of everyone's eyes as early as the ancient war, and this one, I think it was sealed by the gods together." He stepped forward, flew and tore off a crystal leaf, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and answered her question dotingly.
"Oh! No wonder I feel like it? Such a big one, then wouldn't we have made it! "A certain girl's old mistake has been committed again.
"What hair, can you take it away? Also, do you think this tree is of the same nature as the outside world used for refining medicine? Xuanyuan Yichen interrupted her conjecture with a remark, and gently tapped her little head.
"Uh, how is this different?" Because of his reminder, Ziyue only seriously felt the breath emanating from this tree at this time, and just when she released her divine sense, the call from the bottom of her heart reappeared, and this time she was not controlled, but clearly felt that the call came to the big tree in front of her.
"Xuanyuan Yichen, I always feel that something is calling me, do you feel like this?" She raised her head, looked at the towering tree, and gradually walked towards it, her body was close to it, and she felt the rich breath of life coming from it, the soul turning technique automatically operated, the exhaustion of her body disappeared in an instant, and even the realm was a little loose.
"No, what do you feel, under this green wood snow tree, it is isolated from all dangers, it is a sacred tree between heaven and earth, since you feel that something is calling you, then follow it and find it, this may be your chance!" He walked into the Aoki Snow Tree, just like her, but he was not able to absorb the life qi emanating from the big tree.
