Entering the cave, Li Ji and Li Ruoxi walked cautiously in the narrow and crooked passage, the cold air inside was terrifying, and from time to time there were droplets of water dripping on the neck, which was cool and creepy.

From time to time there was a slow rustling sound in the distance, sometimes far and sometimes near, a strange wind whistled by, and when walking in the passage, I always felt that someone was blowing cold air behind me, which made people feel chills down their spines.

Li Ji's heart tightened for a while, goosebumps suddenly appeared on his body, and he muttered to himself: "The sound coming from the cave is extremely weird, is there really some evil demon and monster at work?"

Li Ruoxi suddenly stopped, Li Ji followed behind and looked down at the road, and accidentally almost bumped into it.

Following her gaze, there were multiple forks in the road ahead.

"There are so many forks in the road, which one should I take?" asked Li Ji after a pause.

"There are traces of drag on the ground, which must have been left by monsters. Li Ruoxi squatted on the ground to carefully identify the traces and sniffed the smell of dirt on them, and said a little strangely, "This trace is only a drag mark, there is no trace of a second person at the scene, and even, there is no trace of struggle and fighting, I don't know what kind of monster is so weird and evil?"

"Could it be a flying beast?" Li Ji clenched the Chixiao Sword in his hand and swallowed heavily.

"Be careful, this monster is estimated to be very tight. We follow the direction of the drag mark and should find Brother Zhou soon. Li Ruoxi led the way, and Li Ji followed closely all the way with the Chixiao Sword in his hand, always vigilant.

After following the drag marks for a while, the vision in front of him suddenly widened, and he came to a huge underground palace.

The two were shocked by the sheer scale of the palace in front of them.

I saw that this palace is supported by nine boulder pillars, each pillar is carved with a whirling coiling, lifelike snake body human head monster, in the middle is a high platform of more than ten zhang, made of granite stones, bluestone steps go up the stairs, the top of the high platform hangs a huge moon pearl, the folds are shining, illuminating the whole hall, dazzling, ethereal and illusory.

The ornate high platform is surrounded by the surrounding pond water, which is turquoise and bottomless.

A rushing waterfall cascades down the steep rock wall, suddenly throwing thousands of pearls, splashing thousands of silver flowers, and rolling up whirlpools.

In the middle of the pond stood a strange giant tree, with dense branches and leaves, intertwined roots, like a beast with outstretched arms, and under the arms hung the unconscious Zhou Babao.

"Eight Treasure Porridge ......" Li Ji was overjoyed and shouted at Zhou Babao.

"Brother Zhou......" Li Ruoxi also shouted.

The two of them carefully examined the path to the giant tree, which could only be reached by climbing over the cliffs full of stalactites.

The crystal clear stone stalactites are like icicles like bamboo shoots, strange shapes, and constantly flow with water droplets of different colors, Ambilight, as if there is life, beautiful.

Li Ji was shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and slowly stroke the stone stalactites hanging from the rock wall.

"Be careful, don't touch!" Li Ruoxi, who was on the side, shouted, but unfortunately he was still a step too late.

The moment his fingers touched the stone stalactite, a strong stinging pain ran down his fingers and spread along the meridians to Li Ji's cranial nerves.

Li Ji was taken aback, and quickly retracted his hand, and by the faint light, he saw that the front of his fingers was a blur of flesh and blood.

"This, what's going on?" Looking at his bloody fingers, Li Ji suddenly had an ominous premonition.

He slowly took a few steps back, but before he could gain a foothold, the cave suddenly shook violently, and the giant tree that had stood still just now became agitated, the earth trembled, and the stalactites burst one after another, stretching out countless wriggling branches and vines.

It turned out that these so-called stalactites turned out to be part of this dryad.

I saw the dryad flashing with a pair of red eyes, roaring angrily, waving thousands of tree vines, as if countless arms were extending towards the two of them.

"Millennial Wood Charm...... Li Ruoxi screamed, "It is also known as the Millennial Wood Spirit, and it is a kind of dryad that specializes in sucking the souls of undead beasts that have deep resentments and cannot be rested. ”

It is several times larger than ordinary trees in appearance, but it has thousands of years of cultivation, and it is rumored to be able to communicate with flowers and trees, and has an immortal body, guarding the connection between the dead world and the human world.

Li Ji looked at this dryad carefully, a huge tree with a diameter of five meters stood on this thick gray-black land, this tree branches were entrenched, forming a web, dense, like a spider web, plus a dense leaf cover, like a big umbrella covering this piece of sky.

Tenacious vines hung down from the branches, they swayed slightly, as if there were countless tentacles, each tentacle contained supreme power, if these dense tentacles combined to attack, I am afraid that at least there is the strength of the fairyland supreme.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa" seemed to see the arrival ......of Li Ji and Li Ruoxi, the tree demon shook violently, and the vines as thick as a wrist were intertwined with each other, and a gray-black energy permeated the vines, enveloping these vines.

In an instant, these vines were synthesized into vines as thick as a bucket, and when these vines were synthesized, a vast aura surged, rippling out from these synthetic vines, and the energy in this space was rolling, and the combined power of the vines could affect the energy changes in this space, which was indeed terrifying.

......These vines, which are as thick as buckets, seem to be dancing like spiritual snakes, and the space shakes violently, and the world and the world shake violently, making people feel like a huge palace is about to be destroyed.

One by one, the vines rolled towards Li Ji and Li Ruoxi, one swept towards Li Ji's waist, the other slashed towards Li Ruoxi, as if to split the two of them in half from head to toe, and a few wrapped around their limbs.

Looking at this formation, it looks like they are going to trap and kill the two.

In a hurry, Li Ji swung his Chixiao Sword and slashed at the attacking tree vines.

I only heard a "bang" and sparks shot out, and the sharp sword cut a few vines, and the vines that fell to the ground struggled a few times before they stopped wriggling.

"Bang bang bang ......" All the attacking tree vines suddenly exploded, and the black-green liquid shot out in all directions, like human blood.

A shrill scream came from the depths ......of the giant tree, as if it sounded in the soul of a person, making people dizzy.

"Good sword!" Li Ruoxi secretly glanced at the Chixiao Sword in Li Ji's hand with a faint red light, you must know that the vine of the thousand-year-old wood charm is completely different from the trees in the ordinary forest, its toughness and strength are extremely high, no less than the steel sword and iron sword in the world.

The Millennium Mu Mei also seemed to be stunned, he didn't expect the sword in Li Ji's hand to be so sharp, so he endured the pain and roared, and a huge anger erupted.

I saw gray-green vines attacking through the air again, the tips of these vines were extremely sharp, sharper than the sharpest sword tips, and the sharp aura echoed in this space.

The giant tree towered into the sky, the branches were dense, and the soil was all rolled up, leaving a lot of space under the wrapping of vines and branches.

"At this time, I'm afraid it's useless to cast the Dugu Divine Sword, because there are too many of these vines, surrounded in all directions, how can it be possible? Besides, the space is shrinking smaller and smaller at the moment, and there is no room for the Chixiao Sword to play, and it can only be captured obediently in its airtight encirclement!" Li Ji looked at these green vines and trees, all exuding a strange and terrifying aura of death.

Facing this strong wind, everyone knows that these trees and vines definitely contain the terrifying energy of the thousand-year-old wood charm.

His eyes froze, and he muttered, "The roads are all blocked, how can you run?"

Before he could react, his body was tightly entangled by the vines, and he struggled to break free, but unfortunately it was useless, and he couldn't break free at all!

As he struggled, the vines tightened tighter and tighter, and at last he couldn't even move.

Only the head was not wrapped, and all the other places were wrapped, and the thousand-year-old wood charm froze him in the air.

But Li Ruoxi didn't know when she hid sideways under a rock, skillfully avoiding the attack of the thousand-year-old wood charm, but her petite body was as agile as an ape, moving left and right between the trees and vines, and her movements were extremely fast.

The thousand-year-old wood charm looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, and the vines on his body tightly restrained Li Ji's body like thousands of giant snakes, causing him to feel pain all over his body, his bones gurgling, and he almost fainted.

He tried his best to break free, but the vines became tighter and tighter, his chest was tight, his eyes were black, his hands were weak, and the Chixiao Sword fell to the ground, and his body hovered in the air.

When the thousand-year-old wood charm entangled Li Ji's body, a blue light flashed, wanting to greedily suck his soul power, but he was greatly disappointed and found that the spiritual power in his body was almost zero.

At the moment of lightning and fire, just as it was about to absorb the soul power, the two human and beast energies in Li Ji's body, which were combined into one from yin to yang, were also activated as if they were being summoned by the summons, and the waves were turbulent, thus driving the divine power of the chaotic celestial body, and instead producing a powerful suction force to devour the thousand-year-old wood charm.

This is the special feature of the chaotic celestial body, as long as it is attacked by an external force stronger than itself, it will trigger the operation of the celestial body, which can not only dissolve the energy wave that attacks the body, but also explore the source of the opponent's attack, and carry out counter-devouring and absorption and use it for its own use.

A flash of red light burst into the hall, illuminating almost the entire hall.

Li Ji was in the air, like a phoenix nirvana, reborn from the fire, continuously absorbing the wood soul power of the thousand-year-old wood charm.

When Li Ruoxi saw this scene, she couldn't help but be stunned, her eyes widened, and she looked at Li Ji in disbelief, forgetting that she was in danger for a while, and time seemed to freeze instantly.

The Millennium Wood Charm struggled in pain, wanting to shrink back and retreat, but it was entangled with the magical suction of the chaotic celestial body in Li Ji's body, and it was difficult for the two sides to separate no matter what.

In a moment's effort, its thousand-year-old wood soul power was almost absorbed, and countless tree vines fell to the ground and were dying and struggling.

The original thousand-year-old wood charm with dense branches and foliage instantly resembled a tree, and the twilight was gloomy.

Li Ruoxi took a deep breath, picked up the Chixiao Sword and threw it at the thousand-year-old wood charm, with a loud bang, like a ghost crying, the sword had already pierced the heart.

The thousand-year-old wood charm convulsed violently a few times, and suddenly fell into the unfathomable pool water, and suddenly the water splashed and the green smoke rose everywhere.

And those wood soul powers that were sucked back by Li Ji's chaotic celestial bodies continued to enter his body, and quickly expanded in his body, and the eight veins of the Qi Jing seemed to be about to burst.

How can a weak mortal body carry the thousand-year-old wood soul power of the dryad, what kind of energy is this, it can simply destroy the energy of the world, just like a balloon, desperately pumping it up, when it reaches a limit, it will burst.

At this time, Li Ruoxi was shocked by the scene in front of her, she showed some strange expressions on her face, hesitated, and finally gritted her teeth and seemed to have made a decision.

She immediately picked up the Chixiao Sword and stabbed the thousand-year-old Mu Mei to death with a sword, and her technique was crisp and neat, never dragging mud and water.

The Dryad's connection with Li Ji was severed in an instant, and he was dragged back from the brink of death.

With a "plop", Li Ji and Zhou Babao both broke free from the shackles of the vines, and their bodies fell straight into the water, unconscious.

Li Ruoxi hurriedly jumped into the water and pulled Li Ji and Zhou Babao, who were already unconscious, to the shore together.

Then she pulled out the Chixiao Sword that was drawn from the thousand-year-old Mu Mei's body, only to see cyan juice slowly flowing out of its heart, forming a five-foot-long wooden staff, dark green all over its body, emitting a faint light.

After a long time, Li Ji and Zhou Babao woke up slowly, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but be surprised, of course Li Ji didn't know what was going on, he only felt that the spiritual power in his body was full, and it seemed to have a light wood fragrance, wrapping around his body, and there was an indescribable refreshment!

After Li Ji and Zhou Babao woke up, they found the dark green glowing wooden staff on the ground, and they both said strangely: "What is this?"

"This is the magic weapon of the Wood Succubus Clan, the Ghost Scepter. At the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, all things sprouted, and the twelve pharaohs of the ancient wood succubus clan worked together to forge a ghost magic scepter, which was used as a magic weapon to guard the passage from the spirit world to the human world, protect the peace of the four directions, and maintain the order of the world.

Unexpectedly, this rod gathers the aura of heaven and earth, absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, and has been refined and formed for three hundred and sixty-five years. After 365 years of continuous sucking of the souls of undead beasts, it became a thousand-year-old wood charm. After it possessed the thousand-year-old wood soul power, it left its post without permission, transformed into shape, and wandered around.

I didn't expect to lurk here, doing evil, and today this demon is destroyed here, and it is also a merit between heaven and earth. ”

Li Ruoxi was so knowledgeable at a young age, and she talked endlessly like a few treasures, which made Li Ji and Zhou Babao, who were listening quietly, stunned.

After a pause, she looked at the nine stone pillars of the main hall from afar, her brows furrowed slightly, and she fell into a burst of thought: "However, this demon is greedy and wants to suck the souls of undead beasts. It is willing to lurk in the swamp of death, where people are inaccessible, birds and beasts are extinct, and it is extremely difficult to suck the souls of undead beasts, why is it so weird, is there any foreign object under the water that restrains the thousand-year-old wood charm......"

"This bead is so beautiful......" Eight Treasure Porridge interrupted Li Ruoxi's thinking with a sentence, and when he woke up, he found himself deep in a huge palace, and he couldn't help but be shocked by this majestic building, and the unusually dazzling light firmly attracted his eyes.

So, he slowly climbed the steps to the high platform.

I saw a stone table in the middle of the high platform, and a container was displayed on the stone table, and a night pearl was held in the container.

In the deep and wide palace, the night pearl bloomed with a blazing and dazzling firelight, shooting out a beautiful arc-shaped track to the surroundings, and the brilliant beams of light were like countless stars embedded in the magnificent sky, pure without any impurities.

Reaching out to touch the colorful pearl of the night, I felt a chill fill the air, and time seemed to freeze.

"Don't move...... Li Ruoxi exclaimed, her complexion turned gray in an instant.

As soon as the words fell, the high platform of the main hall suddenly began to shake violently, the pool splashed in all directions, the space collapsed, and the earth shook.

Countless swamps spread in all directions, and the death swamp actually began to collapse, sweeping towards the three of them with an extremely hideous momentum.

"It's not good, the thousand-year-old wood charm is the foundation of the death swamp, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, since it no longer exists, this swamp is about to collapse, and it will be replaced by a monstrous flood......" Li Ruoxi looked at the thousand-year-old wood charm that had fallen into the surging pond water, and suddenly shouted loudly, "Cut off the thousand-year-old wood charm, use the wood as a boat, use the buoyancy of the flood to escape, ...... quickly"

So, the three of them hurriedly cut off the thousand-year-old wood charm and turned over on the boat.

At this time, the flood water had already swelled, instantly submerging the high platform of the main hall, and the wooden boat floated and turbulent as the flood continued to rise.

At this time, the palace collapsed one after another, the light had passed, and at the bottom of the unfathomable pool, nine dark red strange lights suddenly lit up......
