Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Tree Cutting Storm
When the glow of the sky shone down through the heavy branches and leaves, Li Xiaoyao and the three of them had been trapped here for three days without eating or drinking.
Fortunately, the three of them are all spirit cultivators, if they were ordinary people, if they didn't eat, drink or move for three days, even if they didn't die, they would probably have to lose half their lives.
In the past three days, since the last time he was frightened away by the old soul's open mouth from the sea of knowledge with a one-month fire of life as a reward, he also learned from Bai Yu and the two to close their eyes and recuperate.
At the same time, because he had nothing to do, in three days, he revisited the sword path taught by the mysterious man named Jue Ling, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of insights in his heart.
This sword path is really vast.
As the three-day period was approaching, Li Xiaoyao could clearly feel that the sticky feeling on his back was gradually subsiding.
"Lao Tian...... Lao Tian ......"
The eyes slowly opened, and the dazzling glow shone red, as if it was a festive wedding dress for this lush land.
And when Li Xiaoyao's eyes looked at Tian Yuan and Bai Yu on the side, he found that a green poisonous snake about one or two meters long was wriggling up along Tian Yuan's ankle.
Seeing this scene, Li Xiaoyao immediately shouted at Tian Yuan beside him.
"Don't bother me, I haven't slept as comfortably in days. ”
Li Xiaoyao's shout was heard in his ears, but Tian Yuan muttered dimly, and then there was no response, and then he fell into a deep sleep.
Tian Yuan's reaction made Li Xiaoyao's heart speechless. However, when his gaze looked at Tian Yuan again, the green poisonous snake had already squirmed into his robe at this moment.
"Ah......h
Just when Li Xiaoyao closed his eyes and didn't want to look at it anymore, Tian Yuan, who was originally sleeping in a daze, suddenly yelled.
The terrible roar frightened the birds and beasts between the mountains and forests to flee in all directions. And Bai Yu on the side was also awakened by his startled reaction.
"What are you yelling about?"
also opened his sleepy eyes, glared at Tian Yuan beside him unhappily and said.
"It'...... It...... It'......"
Under Bai Yu's puzzled and Li Xiaoyao's pitiful gaze, Tian Yuan said three words in a row, but there was no follow-up. Just showed a painful and embarrassed expression, and said no more.
It wasn't until the sticky feeling on his back completely disappeared that Tian Yuan instantly turned into a light and shadow and disappeared from the sight of Li Xiaoyao and Bai Yu.
And when he reappeared, his walking posture changed to a limp. The left leg is sandwiched between the right leg, like a cripple.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Tian Yuan's appearance, Bai Yu on the side couldn't help but be even more puzzled. Pointing to his strange way of walking, he asked speechlessly.
In this regard, Tian Yuan just held back a flushed face and glared fiercely at Li Xiaoyao, who was holding his stomach and falling to the ground laughing wildly.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, hurry up, finish it early, go back early. It's been three days, and it's about to be the night of the full moon. ”
Tian Yuan's expression, as well as Li Xiaoyao's strange behavior that didn't know why he was laughing, Bai Yu glanced at Tian Yuan, and didn't continue to ask, just said coldly.
"Alright, stop laughing, hurry up. Come with me, and I'll talk to you, so that you don't trouble me again. ”
Being bitten by that hateful poisonous snake in a critical place, and now being reprimanded by Senior Brother Bai Yu, Tian Yuan's heart can be described as angry.
But he has always been afraid of Bai Yu, and he definitely doesn't dare to vent to Bai Yu. couldn't vent to Bai Yu, Li Xiaoyao on the side was the only one who knew about his scandal, so he naturally turned the object of venting to Li Xiaoyao.
He said something unpleasantly, and then his body quickly retreated backwards, until he withdrew from the terrifying ancient tree in front of him for more than ten miles, and then stopped.
"Just say what's going on, it's so mysterious. Also, the matter below you is none of my business, but I reminded you that you should be lazy. ”
Following Tian Yuan all the way for more than ten miles, Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but say in confusion.
"Hmph! I'll settle this matter with you later, and I'll finish today's business first. ”
Hearing Li Xiaoyao mention the ugly thing he had just done again, Tian Yuan's eyes were about to burst into flames.
However, he finally reined in, and whispered to Li Xiaoyao with a cautious expression: "The wood we used to build the house must be cut from the ancient tree just now. However, it's a real psychic tree, so you can't let it hear that you're trying to cut its branches, or you'll be in the same situation as it was three days ago. ”
Looking at Li Xiaoyao in front of him, Tian Yuan said seriously.
"By the way, after you cut down a branch, remember to pick up the branch and run, no matter what happens, you will never be able to turn back. Otherwise, I can't guarantee the consequences. ”
After speaking, Tian Yuan continued to add.
As for Tian Yuan's words, Li Xiaoyao also understood, and it was not a monster that arrested the three of them three days ago, but the exaggerated ancient tree in front of him.
However, it is not surprising to say so. After all, if a tree grows like this, if you want to say that it has not become a sperm, it is estimated that no one will believe it.
"Let's go, Senior Brother is still waiting for the two of us. Wait for the two of us to shoot at the same time, and then after we are done, remember to run back without looking back, and we must not have half a minute of stay. ”
After explaining, Tian Yuan and Li Xiaoyao rushed towards the ancient tree in front of them.
Under Bai Yu's eyes that you have explained clearly, Li Xiaoyao also immediately glanced at him. The Soul Separation Sword on his back was quickly clenched in his hand, and with a high degree of concentration of his whole body, he waited for Bai Yu's command.
"Hands-on ......"
The three of them stood quietly in front of the ancient tree for a full minute, until Bai Yu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and his mouth snorted. Immediately after, the three of them turned into three sword shadows of different colors and slashed towards the terrifying ancient tree in front of them.
With a leap of body, under the explosion of spiritual power in their bodies, the three people flew into the air at a height of dozens of meters like three eagles.
When the essence light in his eyes bloomed, a ray of sword light slashed down on a thick branch as thick as more than a dozen people hugging him at a lightning speed.
Between the dazzling flashes of light, a crisp sound came, and Li Xiaoyao turned into a light and shadow again, flashing over the slowly falling branches, and then disappeared between the foothills without looking back.
The heavy branches are said to be branches, but this terrifying volume and weight, even some towering ancient trees that are hundreds of years old, I am afraid that they are not as good as them.
The spiritual power under his feet floated, and the speed was turned on to the extreme. The dense weeds and shrubs on both sides were like sharp blades, slicing over his body.
Although he has spiritual power to protect his body, under this sharp cut, Li Xiaoyao can still feel an indescribable pain.
It's just that he had no choice but to ask Tian Yuan again and again to himself, so he had to endure this intense pain and run forward frantically.
That is, the moment he cut off this branch and ran away on it, tentacles emitting a dark cyan light instantly appeared from the terrifying ancient tree.
Just like a huge octopus, the slippery tentacles suddenly poked forward, and its speed was terrifying, even Li Xiaoyao, who was running wildly with all his strength at the moment, felt a chill in his heart.
"Point Sword ......"
After running forward for about four or five minutes, the iron blue tentacles behind him had already caught up. And, looking at its speed, it seems that it may catch up with itself at any time.
After seeing the power of this tentacle, Li Xiaoyao didn't dare to be pulled by it anymore. Otherwise, he just scolded quietly before, and he was trapped for three days. And this time, I cut off a branch of it, and the devil knows how it will punish itself if it catches itself.
Although this thick branch was a drop in the bucket compared to its exaggerated size, Li Xiaoyao didn't dare to joke about his safety.
With a solemn and serious expression on his face, Li Xiaoyao quickly put the soul sword in his hand on the ground, and the spiritual power in his body shot out, and with his perception of the sword path taught by the mysterious person in the past three days, a sword stabbed out, and Li Xiaoyao's body actually crossed the distance of more than ten miles towards the front in an instant.
Tian Yuan and Bai Yu, who were following behind, couldn't help but be shocked when they looked at Li Xiaoyao's actions.
"This guy, how terrifying is his strength?"
With a small muttering in his mouth, Tian Yuan quickly followed with the thick branch in his hand.
It's just that behind them, there doesn't seem to be such an exaggerated iron-blue tentacle as behind Li Xiaoyao.
"Did you fool him? The attack range of the Divine Tree has always been only eighteen miles, why did Brother Xiaoyao run for more than thirty miles, and he still looked like he was running wildly. ”
Looking at Li Xiaoyao just now, Bai Yu's heart was also shocked by him. However, he didn't say anything like Tian Yuan.
Instead, his attention was more focused on the strange phenomenon of why Li Xiaoyao was running so wildly. After thinking about it for a while, he glared at Tian Yuan beside him with a look of displeasure on his face, and said coldly.
"Who made him laugh at me just ......"
was glared at by Bai Yu, but Tian Yuan shrank his head and hid behind Bai Yu and muttered in a low voice.
"By the way, if you don't say I'm almost forgetting, what happened to you just now?"
Tian Yuan's muttering sounded, and Bai Yu's face immediately showed a look of doubt and asked.
And as Bai Yu was aroused by his curiosity again, Tian Yuan's face couldn't help but turn red again, and he was embarrassed.
