Chapter 840: Martial Arts Are Hard to Defeat Demon Methods
As soon as the monster's words fell, Li Nan and Xiahou Jiang both heard a swishing sound all around, as if something was coming towards them.
The two of them want to talk about martial arts, they are both strong people in this world, although the woods are too dark, which affects their eyesight, but they can only rely on listening to the wind and arguing, they hurriedly swing their swords and slash to the side.
What is the Dryad's greatest ability?
Naturally, it was able to manipulate countless branches and vines on its own, and what was attacking Li Nan and Xiahou at this moment was countless arm-thick vines.
These vines are as terrifying as pythons in the dark, they can not only walk close to the ground, but also are not afraid of pain and death, which is really a strange and difficult way to attack.
If ordinary people were attacked by these tree vines, I am afraid that they would have been tied up and strangled to death, but Li Nan and Xia Hou will rely on two sharp swords to protect themselves from the water, and all the attacking tree vines will be cut off immediately.
Xiahou General's attack was just that, and some of the vine tentacles were cut off, which was nothing to the thousand-year-old tree demon hiding in the shadows, but what Li Nan did made it a little painful and angry.
The sword used in Li Nan's hand is made of Valyrian steel, a metal that is very rare even in the world of ice and fire, and legend has it that it was made with spells and magic, and forged with the help of dragon flame, making it lightweight, tough, and never rusty, curled, or broken, and most importantly, possessing demon-breaking properties.
When he was in the world of ice and fire, Li Nan had used this long sword to kill a lot of strange ghosts, but he didn't expect that in this world, this sword once again played a powerful role.
Any vine that is cut off by this Valyrian sword will have a layer of burn marks from the flames, and this burning pain will also be transmitted to the brain of the thousand-year-old dryad along the vine.
"Damn it!" The intense pain made the millennium dryad furious.
It howled angrily, and used a more powerful demon spell, only to see that many bucket-sized trees in the woods actually began to move, and surrounded Li Nan and Xiahou General.
The sword in the hands of Li Nan and Xiahou was indeed sharp, and it didn't take much strength to cut the vines, but the sword was a sword, not a lumberjack, and seeing countless thick trees squeezing and crashing over, the two hurriedly fled out.
There are many demons in this world, but there are not many who can harm one side just by relying on a thousand years of Taoism.
The body of this tree demon in Lanruo Temple is a banyan tree, and this banyan tree not only comprehends the method of absorbing yin and yang qi for cultivation, but also because of the characteristics of its body.
The banyan tree is different from other trees in that it is a long-lived, fast-growing tree species with very well-developed lateral branches and lateral roots.
The trunk and branches of the banyan tree can grow a lot of aerial roots, droop downward, and continue to thicken into the pillar root after landing into the soil, the pillar root does not branch and does not grow leaves, has the effect of absorbing water and nutrients, and also supports the branches that continue to expand outward, so that the crown continues to expand, in this way, the column roots are connected, the column branches support each other, and the branches and leaves expand, becoming a spectacle that covers the sky and blinds the eyes, and becomes a single tree into a forest.
After thousands of years of cultivation and growth, most of the woods around Lanruo Temple are actually branches of this banyan tree demon, so the knights and mages who came to subdue demons and eliminate demons over the years, as long as they enter its territory, they will eventually be unable to escape the fate of dying before the demons are killed.
Xiahou knew that Li Nan would not be able to work lightly, so he brandished his sword with one hand to slash at the vines and trees around him, and grabbed the clothes on Li Nan's back with the other hand and rushed out.
The Valyrian sword in Li Nan's hand has the attribute of breaking demons, and its power is far stronger than that of General Xiahou's Fan Tie, and now that the two have joined forces, they have also rushed forward dozens of meters.
Although Li Nan and General Xiahou had already done their best, in the face of the endless attacks of the Millennium Dryad, they had fought for a long time and were also strong.
Just when the two of them had reached the end of the mountain, a loud shout came from the air: "Bold and wicked, don't want to hurt innocent people!" ”
With this thunderbolt version of the roar, twelve golden rays of light shot out like lightning and nailed to the ground, and in the flash of golden light, Li Nan and Xia Hou forced all the vines and trees around them to retreat.
A person flew over, standing in the golden aperture, it was Yan Chixia with a big beard.
Seeing Yan Chixia appear, the thousand-year-old tree demon hiding in the shadows finally appeared, although this demon already had a human form, but wearing a black robe, it looked neither male nor female, ugly and weird to the extreme.
The Millennium Tree Demon pointed at Yan Chixia and scolded: "You damned Taoist priest, Grandma Ben has already allowed you to live in this Lanruo Temple, why have you repeatedly ruined my good deeds?" ”
"I'm bad for you?" Yan Chixia sneered: "Hehe, you monster sucks the Yuanyang and Yuanyin qi of passing men and women, I am afraid that there are thousands of people who have harmed over the years, and such a thing that violates the harmony of heaven is so justified by you, this is really strange!" ”
"I kill all those who are to blame, and I also reduce the sin in this world, but for the benefit of the world, and we are also in the same way, so why should you meddle with things?"
"Whew!" Yan Chixia pointed to Li Nan and Xiahou General beside her and said, "I don't care about you when you killed those people with evil thoughts in the past, but why do you want to kill them today?" ”
"Hahaha... Hey, hey, hey, hey......" When the Millennium Tree Demon heard Yan Chixia's words, it immediately let out a strange laugh that was neither male nor female, and it looked at Xiahou and said mockingly: "One of these two people is indeed determined, but the other is probably ...... Hahaha. ”
Yan Chixia is not stupid, listening to the meaning of the Millennium Tree Demon's words, it seems that Li Nan and Xiahou Jiang have been seduced by beauty, he followed the other party's line of sight to look at Xiahou General, and sure enough, he saw a look of shame on his face.
The thousand-year-old tree demon didn't want to tear his face with the powerful Yan Chixia because of a human life, since he came, he couldn't do it anymore, and immediately said loudly: "Grandma will give you a face today, let him go, I hope you will do it yourself in the future!" ”
A strong cold wind blew, and the countless vines and trees that surrounded the three of them all disappeared along with the thousand-year-old dryad, leaving only a pile of severed branches and fallen leaves on the ground.
It doesn't matter if you are embarrassed in front of people, but this time it is in front of the tree demon to lose face, Yan Chixia shook her hand and withdrew the twelve golden long needles nailed to the ground, then glared at Xiahou Jiang, and said unhappily: "Come back to Lanruo Temple with me for a while, and you will leave here tomorrow." ”
Xiahou Jiang also has a bad temper, and he has never been convinced by Yan Chixia, if he had turned his head and left in the past, but he had just seen the power of the monster, he could only swallow his anger and return to Lanruo Temple with Yan Chixia and Li Nan.
The three of them walked into the dilapidated temple, Yan Chixia pointed to the side hall that was still intact and said to the two: "You guys just deal with it here for the night, these monsters are afraid of the sun, and you can leave smoothly after dawn tomorrow." ”
Li Nan originally wanted to get close to Yan Chixia and learn some knowledge and spells about dealing with monsters, but seeing that his face was not good now, he had to give up for the time being.
Li Nan and Xiahou were walking towards the side hall, when they suddenly heard Yan Chixia behind them exclaim: "Oops, that stupid scholar is gone!" ”
