When I opened my eyes again, my first reaction was that my head was swollen, I felt that the blood was rushing to my head, my ears were buzzing, my body seemed to be tied up with hemp rope, and it became difficult to breathe.

What caught my eye was the tangled roots of an ancient tree and its black bark, and everything seemed to be upside down.

I instinctively struggled to raise my head and look up, and only then did I find the fat man not far away, his eyes closed, and like me, he was bound head down and foot up, hanging upside down on this huge, unknown tree, and it was not a hemp rope at all, but a thin, tough branch!

What's going on? I'm a little slow to come.

I struggled to figure it out, if I'm not mistaken, didn't we drink tea with Xiangkong Lao Tao in the wing? How did it get to the tree? Or is it such an ecstatic pose? And what kind of bird tree is this? can actually entangle people with branches, is it a refinement?!

There was a sound of chanting in my ears, and I looked for the sound, and my heart was chuckling.

On the ground not far from the ancient tree that bound me and the fat man, there were dozens of Taoist priests, they were sitting one by one, their eyes slightly closed, and the formation was centered on a three-legged incense tripod in the direction of gossip.

But this scripture is obscure, I have never heard it before, and I have little knowledge of Taoist scriptures, so I can only intuitively guess that it is a spell similar to that of suppressing demons.

And the purple-robed Xiangkong Lao Dao was sitting under the Xiangding in the array, pinching the Taoist decisive gesture with one hand, and constantly shaking the dust in the other hand, Bai Hao pointed to the various hexagrams in the gossip, obviously doing it.

It was already dusk, and the outlines of the mountains in the distance were about to blur, and night was approaching.

I suddenly remembered that I was in a hurry before going out today, and I didn't look at the yellow calendar, and according to the time, it seems that today is just May 15th!

The first and fifteenth days of each month are the days when the yin wind erodes the most, and evil things are ready to move, which has the greatest impact on all things in the world.

Anyone who is in the business of trickery knows that there will be absolutely no business on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, and even fortune tellers and warlocks are unwilling to take orders on these two days.

There has always been a saying among the people that "men are afraid of the first day of the new year, and women are afraid of the fifteenth", that is, they are afraid that something will go wrong in the two days when the wind is at its peak, and they will be riddled with evil things.

What is the purpose of the stinky Taoist priests who opened the altar on the fifteenth day and tied me and the fat man to this ancient tree?

Don't...... Is it trying to unleash some evil and treat us as a living sacrifice to lure us?!

Looking at the ancient tree that binds us again, I can't help but be horrified.

From my upside-down angle, in the dim sky, I saw that this ancient tree was dark and towering, and the diameter of the tree alone was no less than four or five meters, and there was not a single leaf on the tree, giving people a lifeless feeling.

In addition to the many branches that bent and drooped like vines, the bare body had thick branches, no more than four or five in number, stretching out in different directions, of different lengths, like a huge black hand with five fingers stretched out from under the ground, trying to break out of the ground.

A thick turbid aura poured out from under the roots of the tree, and this turbidity was different from the breath on the corpse boy that I had seen before, showing a gray color, wrapped in a surging dark red.

It felt like there was a strange aura mixed with some unknown strange gas, spreading against the branches and the thin branches that bound us, like countless ants entangled in the flesh, bowing their heads and devouring slowly.

A faint smell of dead people wafted through the air, not the disgusting, rotten smell of corpses, but more like a thin layer of haze, drilling down the nostrils into the lungs, and every time I took a breath, countless mournful cries exploded in my ears, including men, women, old people, and children......

These voices are intertwined, and there is an indescribable fear in people's hearts.

Since I was hanging upside down, the tether on my chest naturally slipped off, but fortunately, the tether was not too long, and I put the sign in the T-shirt again, so it slipped to the position of my shoulder blades and did not leak.

The little stinky fart in the treacherous card seemed very uneasy, and she resonated through her spiritual power, and shouted to me in a weak voice, saying that this is a thousand-year-old demon tree, let me get out quickly.

Millennial Demon Tree?! I was taken aback.

In my concept, the demon is either a big mouse or a wild cat, and if it is not extended, it is nothing more than a fox spirit or a hedgehog, a tree can become a spirit, and there are enough thousands of years of Taoism, which makes me somewhat unconvinced.

But there was no reason for the little stinky fart to lie to me, listening to her weak voice, it was obviously affected by this strange tree, and she seemed powerless at the moment, and she was completely no longer brave enough to suck the spirit of the strange thing.

I was nervous, and instinctively began to recite the five-character proverb, and after reciting it about three or five times, I felt a sudden light in front of me, as if there was a round bead shuttling through the body of the tree, fleeting.

Looking at it again, it was just a black and bright tree, as if the eyes were hallucinating.

Master once told me that unlike the "Five Immortals" and other animals that have been passed down among the people, flowers and trees can also be transformed into demons due to their special environment and accumulation over the years.

But plants are plants after all, and being unable to move is a natural disadvantage, so even if flowers and trees are cultivated into demon bodies, under normal circumstances, their path is extremely shallow, far less fierce than fox spirits and the like.

And the strange aura accumulated at the root of the demon tree in front of him is so deep, like an ancient battlefield with thousands of troops, which is incomprehensible. Not only that, but I am also puzzled by the opening of this group of stinky Taoist priests.

Although I'm just a half-and-a-half, I can also see that the old Dao named Xiangkong has profound skills, and at least he has cultivated to the realm of Xiaocheng with True Qi beside his body, so why should such a profound Dao act summon a tree demon?

Wrong! What flashed in front of my eyes just now was...... Nedan?! This demon tree has already cultivated the Dan?!

For cultivators, the thing of Inner Dan is very precious, whether it is a demon or a human being, it can be a pill.

Dan is divided into inside and outside. Wai Dan is very easy to understand, it is an artificially refined pill, for example, the Wanqing Pill that the fat man and I came to ask for is the Wai Dan pill.

Nedan is a little mysterious. This thing is the sign of a cultivator, first as qi, then as liquid, and finally as solid, becoming a half-spirit body and half-body Yuan Dan that swims in the seven meridians and eight veins in the body, and the color and size also vary from cultivator to cultivator.

Different from the nonsense description that abounds in the cultivation of immortals now, more frequent than kidney stones, and is embarrassed to greet people without Neidan, the formation of Neidan is the ultimate result of a cultivator's long cultivation, whether it is a demon or a human cultivation, it is a great supplement, which can be said to condense his lifelong cultivation.

A demon tree turned out to be a pill, which in itself is a thing that makes people's scalps tingle.

You must know that the demon whose body is a tree relies on the essence of the sun and the moon to cultivate, which is far slower than the cultivation progress of other animals and humans, and it took at least a thousand years to cultivate into a demon body, and this thing not only became a demon, but also practiced the demon pill, how many years of effort did it take?

See you for a long time!
