Mu Bei didn't know how long he had been gone.

Looking at the branches covered with purple leaves around her, the branches wrapped around the incomparably huge trunk of the tree, forming a path for her to move forward, constantly spreading upward.

She didn't even want to look up, to see the canopy that still had no trace, the giant tree in the sky, Mu Bei could only rely on his perseverance step by step, slowly walking forward.

I don't know where the end is, but she has no choice but to go on firmly, looking for that glimmer of possible hope.

As for the other person who had already stepped on the giant tree before, Ji Tianyi relied on the power of time and shadow to constantly break the shackles of space, and the distance he advanced had already exceeded that of Mu Bei, but despite this, he did not see any trace of the canopy, standing on the branch, Ji Tianyi stopped, and he faintly realized that something was wrong.

It is recorded in the secret collection of the Ji family that there is an unknown nascent world outside the world they live in, and according to another plan left by the doctor in the pre-civilization era, this world is named the Li World.

I don't know why it came into being, I don't know when it was born, but when someone realizes its existence, they want to find a way to enter it.

According to some traces, lock the space-time coordinates and break the spatial barrier, this is the third fire - the unique ability of the time shadow vanity, if it can stimulate the ability of the time shadow vanity, it should be able to reach the so-called inner world, but because of the development of the fire plan, and the ringing of the last clock, the human beings of the pre-civilization era finally sealed the fire according to the plan left by the doctor, and the existence of the inner world is also buried in the inheritance for future generations, waiting for the discovery of later generations.

Countless years have passed, the new era of civilization has come, and the people of the three surnames who have awakened in the new generation, according to the oath of protection, have hidden from the world, and continue to accumulate strength, waiting for the arrival of the red moon.

Among them, the ancestors of the Ji family, in some inheritances, discovered the existence of the inner world.

He activated the Shadow Void and successfully arrived here, seeing the huge Optimus Tree in front of him.

“…… It may be the original shell of a great god, or it may be the original core of the whole world, it connects the heavens and the earth, and it seems to be the essence of the whole world, and if you can reach the top of the world, you may be able to truly understand the truth about this inner world......"

“…… But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break through that barrier and break free from that bondage, I ...... There may really be no way to get to that end, but ...... There's one thing I'm almost sure ......"

"That world is alive, and His existence is real!"

In the secret collection of the Ji family, there is no record of anything more about this giant tree, but just these also make Ji Tianyi faintly realize that wanting to set foot on the end of this supernatural tree and climb to the top of the world does not seem to be blindly moving forward.

"Soul power...... "The golden-eyed man muttered softly.

The inner world, or the ruins of the shadows, is inhabited by creatures called the ghosts, and these creatures seem to be converted from the souls of the dead people in the original world, if the Tree of Optimus is the core of this world, then the way to reach the end may be related to the power of the soul.

"Heh......" Ji Tianyi's mouth curled up slightly, and a chuckle was raised.

He is not a ghost, and naturally he does not have a soul body, but the absence of a soul body does not mean that he cannot control the power of the soul.

Ji Tianyi gently put the wooden crutch in his hand, and a black light instantly spread out from the landing point, and in the air around the Optimus Tree, there was also a lot of purple mist, and the black light that spread out, the moment it came into contact with the purple mist, it pulled those purple mist and merged into the black light.

When the black light was retracted, a black dark light flashed in Ji Tianyi's golden eyes.

He slowly closed his eyes, and an invisible soul storm centered on him, instantly swept towards the surroundings, and the surging soul power in an instant gave Ji Tianyi the ability to perceive souls like a ghost.

Under the perception of the huge soul power, Ji Tianyi "saw" a road, a road hidden in the trunk of the tree, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, left the branch, and walked towards the huge trunk, when his body touched the surface of the trunk, it was strangely integrated into it, as if he did not encounter any obstacles, and walked into the trunk like that.

He walked slowly inside the trunk, I don't know how long it took, a naturally formed staircase suddenly appeared in his perception, extending upwards, Ji Tianyi walked to the staircase, without any hesitation, he stepped up, but the moment he touched the staircase, the whole person shook slightly.

An invisible pressure seemed to suddenly press on his shoulders, hindering him from moving forward, Ji Tianyi snorted coldly, and the wooden crutch in his palm condensed a rich black light, which continued to pour into his body, making his soul power soar again.

The pressure on his body was reduced a lot, Ji Tianyi stepped on the stairs with both feet, and walked up with a flat expression, his speed did not seem to be affected in any way, and his pace was unhurried.

However, Ji Tianyi's heart at this moment was already a little dignified.

He finally understood why the ancestor of the Ji family would say that he couldn't go to the end, and the black-haired young man also said the same thing.

This seems to be an endless ladder in front of him, and with each step forward, the pressure on the soul becomes stronger on the basis of the previous order, and no matter how strong the soul strength is, it will eventually reach the limit, and after all, it will collapse because it cannot withstand this pressure.

However, he is Ji Tianyi.

Nothing could bring him to his knees.

Ji Tianyi walked forward expressionlessly, his pace was very slow, but very steady, and there was no change in speed and frequency.

No one but himself knew what kind of pressure he was under.

……

Exhaustion.

It had not been a long time since she felt such a feeling of exhaustion on the verge of limit, and the girl held on to the trunk of the tree and staggered on the way forward.

Mu Bei didn't know the ruins of the shadows, nor did she know what this huge supernatural tree meant, she only knew that she had no choice but to climb to the top of this giant tree and obtain the power that belonged to the ferryman.

Mu Bei's expression was pale, her spirit was tired to the limit, and her consciousness was even close to fainting.

That's it...... Is it over......"

She didn't know what would happen if she fell, but she could vaguely feel that if she fell here, she would lose something very important or an opportunity.

"Mu Bei, hold on, I've been persevering for so many years, what's this tiredness?" She kept talking to herself in her heart.

At this moment, the blazing core in his body seemed to sense some breath, and suddenly took the initiative to exude power, which made Mu Bei's heart tremble, and he felt that a stream of red moon energy from nowhere under his feet actually transmitted into his body.

"Hold on!"

Anyway, Mu Bei gritted his teeth and continued to walk forward.

Under the giant tree, the black-haired young man sat cross-legged in front of the tree, his deep black eyes lightly flashing with a complex light.

As a former comrade-in-arms, that's all I can help you with......

North, whether you can go to the end or not depends on yourself.

In front of Forget, Chu Tinglan sat on the ground, he looked at the black-haired young man in front of him, seemed to feel the other party's gaze, Forget raised his head slightly, and said lightly: "As the aboriginal of this world, it is impossible for you to return to that world as a human being. ”

"Because, in that world, you are already 'dead', so you don't have to hope."

"How would you know?!" Chu Tinglan couldn't believe it, he hadn't told the young man in front of him his identity at all, and how did he know that he still had memories from that world.

"Heh......" looked at Chu Tinglan's crimson soul body, and said calmly: "As a red demon, you can preserve your consciousness, and you were once considered the best among human beings, and it is not surprising that the remaining red moon energy in your soul carries memory fragments after death." ”

"Moreover, those who can avoid the test of that illusion can only be done by the Red Devil."

"Phantom test?" Chu Tinglan suddenly realized something, after he jumped down the abyss, he seemed to have passed through a certain gate, and then came here directly, without encountering any obstacles, which was obviously different from Mu Bei.

"You are the second Red Demon to come here, with your own consciousness, you have the qualifications and potential, to become one of us." Forget to say lightly.

Chu Tinglan's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Become one of you, I'm sorry, I didn't think like that." ”

"Huh." I forgot to say nothing more, and slowly closed my eyes.

He decides to do things without the consent of others.

……

"This is ......"

Mu Bei looked at the darkness in front of her suspiciously, just now when she was holding on to the trunk of the tree, she suddenly fell into the inside of the trunk, which made her extremely surprised, looking at the little light at the end of her sight, she slowly walked there.

The light slowly expanded, and in the darkness, Mu Bei saw the long staircase in front of her, spreading infinitely upward, this scene made her suddenly realize that this was the real road to the end of the giant tree.

Before coming to the stairs, Mu Bei gently stepped on the first step of the stairs, and instantly felt an invisible pressure acting directly on her body.

Or rather, not her body, but her soul.

Mu Bei gradually understood that if he wanted to really reach the end, he must have an extremely tenacious soul or a huge soul power.

Resilient Soul ...... What......

A soul that has been baptized by countless years...... Is it tenacious?

Mu Bei slowly walked on the top of the stairs, she walked forward slowly, the pressure on her soul became more and more huge, but she only felt the feeling of oppression in her mind, which did not affect her progress.

I don't know how long she walked, but her steps became slower, and her fair forehead was covered with a layer of fine sweat.

At this time, the pressure on the soul was already extremely huge.

However, at this moment, Mu Bei suddenly saw that in the void on the opposite side of the stairs, a staircase also appeared, and at an extremely high place above her, a figure was moving forward slowly.

"Ji Tianyi?!"

The golden-eyed man suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw Mu Bei, his eyes were slightly condensed.

"I didn't expect you to follow so quickly."

"It's just that that thing will definitely fall into my hands in the end."

"Who knows." Mu Bei smiled reluctantly.

Ji Tianyi's eyes narrowed slightly, the wooden crutch in his hand suddenly erupted into a pitch-black black light, in this incomparably silent void space, there was a faint ghostly roar, as if a demon from hell roared, Mu Bei's heart sank, she felt the terrifying aura around her, and recalled the scene when she met Ji Tianyi for the first time.

In the North Curtain Continent, in the inner courtyard of Perthvia College, in the Sky Canopy Tower, she was attacked by this force.
