Chapter 172: The Dryad (Three Shifts for Forty Consecutive Days, Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
I saw that in the middle of the village, in what was originally a salt pond with a large area, there was a towering tree growing impressively.
It's just that there is not a single leaf on this big tree. In its dense branches, there were a large number of holes, from which wisps of white smoke were constantly spewed out.
And under the big tree, on the intertwined roots, there were nearly a hundred warriors in the uniforms of the temple.
Most of these warriors have been absorbed by the roots of the tree and turned into skeletons. But there are still dozens of warriors whose bodies are extremely well preserved, but their eyes are closed, motionless, and there is no trace of anger.
It seems that it is no different from Zhang Yueming who I just met.
This big tree is the source of the fog that covers Xiaolin Village, and it is also the mastermind behind the murder of more than 100 martial artists.
At this moment, the big tree also seemed to feel that someone was approaching. Its trunk moved slightly, and it gave birth to a human face.
"You are the warriors of the human race, and your body is really delicious!"
Demon Clan!
This is a demon clan that has opened up the spiritual intelligence!
In an instant, everyone's hearts "chuckled".
Even though they understood that they could make the Tantang of Hemu Town return several times in succession, the mastermind behind it was definitely not ordinary. But when they saw this big tree, they still fantasized that this was an ordinary demon tree, and everything they did was based on instinct.
After all, from the outside, many demon clans are not much different from animals and plants. But it can become a demon clan, which is naturally extraordinary. The most important of these is to speak and be wise.
This also means that these demon clans do not rely on instinct. They will play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, weigh the pros and cons, and carry out intrigues and tricks, and they will be more handy.
As a demon race, they are born with a strong physique and strange demon arts, and in the face of the human race of the same level, they are basically one-sided crushing.
All this was a huge disaster for the warriors present.
After all, although they have experienced a hundred battles, most of them are facing the evil path of taking refuge in the demon clan. Even if you encounter a demon clan, most of them are animal demon clans such as jackals, tigers and leopards. It's like this mysterious big tree-shaped demon clan, they haven't even seen it at all. I don't know how to deal with it.
Moreover, what surprised everyone even more was how this demon clan broke through the defense and took root here. If it can come in, does it mean that there are new breaches, and will there be other demon clans fishing in troubled waters to break in?
These questions were constantly hammering the martial artists present, making them suddenly feel more stressed.
At this moment, the Ning Mansion Lord finally stood up.
"How did you get here, you demon clan, and do you have any accomplices?"
"Demon Clan? I have a name, I am the demon spirit Huai Annihilation, and I am stationed here on the orders of the Demon King of the Split Sky. Why, do you have any opinions?" the giant face on the trunk snorted, and replied proudly.
The Lord of the Ning Mansion raised his eyebrows and rebuked angrily: "You are not ashamed to speak out! You are now invading the door and slaughtering the people of my clan, and you are still justified!"
"Ha, ha, ha, you weak human beings, are our bread. If it weren't for this damn Ancient Barrier, we would have slaughtered you a long time ago. I'm doing it now, it's just just right. The trunk of the tree shook and laughed wildly.
Seeing this, the Lord of the Ning Mansion suddenly flashed a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.
"Everyone, let's go up together, we have to tear this dead tree to pieces today!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately responded, each showed their combat skills, and pounced towards Huai Xuan.
At this time, the corners of Huai Xuan's mouth raised, and a trace of disdain appeared.
"Even you crooked melons and cracked dates, dare to compete with me?"
As soon as the words fell, he saw the canopy above Huai Xuan's head shrink suddenly, and then swung violently towards the people who rushed up.
In an instant, a large amount of thick smoke erupted from the holes in the branches and swept towards everyone.
"Everyone, be careful! Don't let this smoke invade!"
Without being reminded by the Master of the Confucian Mansion, the martial artists present held up their true qi shields one after another, protecting their bodies.
At this moment, Huo Xiu was secretly complaining. He had just advanced to the Breakthrough Realm not long ago, and he had not mastered the combat skills of the body protection type, and the True Qi Shield was indeed a little difficult for him.
Huo Xiu had no choice but to follow suit, and suddenly raised his qi, stimulating the true qi in his body and protecting all parts of his body.
As a result, his pace slowed down by half a beat, and he was one position behind the others.
At this time, Ye Heng, who was at the forefront, had already entered the mist. Seeing a large amount of mist surrounding him, a trace of disdain couldn't help but appear between his eyebrows.
After all, the True Qi Shield was not only able to take some of the damage in place of the martial artist, but it was also able to completely isolate it from its surroundings. Naturally, it is difficult to penetrate the shield's defenses in a dense fog like this, which has no offensive power.
Before, Ye Heng had already tried it when they were walking through Xiaolin Village. It's just that because the consumption of the True Qi Shield is too large, it has not been maintained forever.
This also made him accidentally hit the trick before and almost died.
But now, Ye Heng thought that he had figured out the strangeness of the fog, and he didn't pay attention to it.
Sure enough, as soon as these mist approached Ye Heng's body, they were isolated by his True Qi shield. No matter how much it rolls, it can't break through.
"The carving insect skills dare to show off in front of me. Huai Xuan, I have to destroy you with my own hands today to pay tribute to my brothers in robes who were killed by you. ”
Ye Heng said, turning his hand into a knife and swinging forward violently, wanting to completely split the fog blocking in front.
Suddenly, a familiar feeling came over him, the feeling he had lost his mind in the fog before.
"How so? I've opened the True Qi shield to isolate all this annoying mist!"
Ye Heng didn't have time to think about it, he immediately held his breath and turned his true qi, wanting to regain control of his body.
However, he suddenly felt a shock in his body. A sense of powerlessness invaded from his limbs, along the meridians around him, and directly attacked his brain.
Ye Heng's eyes rolled in a hurry, looking for a way to break the situation. His body is getting heavier and heavier, and he is about to lose control completely.
But at this moment, Ye Heng was surprised to find that somehow, his True Qi shield was eroded by loopholes, and a large amount of dense fog passed through it and directly invaded his body.
"Be careful! These fogs have ......"
Ye Heng struggled to open his mouth, wanting to warn the martial artists behind him. But before he finished speaking, he felt that his eyes were dark, and he completely lost consciousness.
