Chapter 332: The Land of Erosion

The giant blue bird carried the two of them and quickly approached the giant tree.

It was so huge, like the backbone of the continent, the clouds and mist drifting in the middle of the trees, the endless branches stretching to the end of the infinite vision, it was an incomparably strange scene.

Cheng Lin remembered that when he first looked down on the planet from the sky, he had witnessed the whole process of this giant tree growing from slender to like this, and now thinking about it, the scene of growth accompanied the growth of the planet, I am afraid that it will be hundreds of thousands of years long.

Perhaps, it was the first life born on this planet.

It used to be the source of life, but now, it is as black as ink, and the branches that stretch open the heavens and the earth are like the claws of the devil, and they reach into the depths of the blue sky.

"Perhaps, its branches have poked out of the atmosphere and into the universe."

This strange thought suddenly appeared in Cheng Lin's heart.

He wanted to ask for confirmation, but when he looked at Ai Lu beside him, he still shook his head to dispel this thought.

"That's the World Tree, the source of the birth of the elves."

Ai Lu had stood up at some point, and said with an extremely complicated expression.

At this moment, the ground under the feet of the two of them was already the royal capital of the royal court.

However, like the old capital, it has become lifeless.

Entering the royal capital range, this means that they are close to the body of the World Tree.

"I can't get in any further, and the violet trees can't resist the erosion of the center."

Ai Lu stood in the wind, she had already covered her tears, and she was neatly and generously dressed in the robe of a priest.

After flying over the old capital, she seemed to have gained some kind of growth.

Now, I'm trying to be like a real priest.

"Is the erosion up there worse?" Cheng Lin was puzzled.

Ailu explained, "Yes, according to the information we have summarized, once you enter a certain area around the World Tree, the erosion power will increase dozens of times. ”

"It's like stepping into a special realm, you will see countless terrifying scenes, and in the face of all kinds of terrible enemies that are difficult to resist, once you enter, it is almost difficult to get out."

Cheng Lin looked at her: "Since it is difficult to get out once you enter, how did you get this news?" ”

"It's the Elf King," said Ai Lu, with a sad look on his face, "The previous Elf King tried to go to the inside of the World Tree alone to find the cause of the erosion, but unfortunately, even with his great elf strength, he did not succeed, but returned seriously injured, and these precious information are what he told. ”

"Well, then you just wait here, and I'll go in and have a look." Cheng Lin said.

"Yes." Ailu nodded obediently, and controlled the bluebird to circle twice, falling on a withered yellow branch.

Cheng Lin, on the other hand, jumped lightly and flew deeper with the effect of "Wind Traveler".

……

……

The closer he got to the World Tree itself, the more Cheng Lin felt a burst of shade.

The originally bright sky gradually darkened, the sunlight was rigidly blocked by the canopy, and the infinite trunk was like a self-contained world, Cheng Lin suddenly had a strange feeling, he was like a mosquito, flying towards a giant.

"It's a pity that this giant is terminally ill, and perhaps his last breath is left before death."

Cheng Lin muttered to himself.

He followed the wind, and suddenly, he saw a thick black and gray fog in front of him.

It was like a fog barrier in a primeval forest, surrounded by boundless giant trees.

"This fog range is probably what Eru is talking about as a special area."

Cheng Lin realized this.

If you keep going, the erosion will increase, and it seems that you will see some terrifying enemies.

However, he was not nervous at all, and the "erosion" did him no harm, and as for the terrifying enemy, he really wanted to see it.

His eyes flickered, and Cheng Lin's speed of control landed on a huge branch.

It is said to be a "branch", but it is already as wide as a large square, and the length is as long as a railroad.

Feet on the ground, without any shaking, the trunk of the tree here has withered from dry yellow to pitch black, Cheng Lin curiously bent down and knocked on the floor, without making any sound, the ground of this wood is as hard as a stone.

Squatted down, held the "Silver Moon Cane" in his right hand and knocked it, and then there was a "tuk" sound.

"Fun experience."

He thought.

Getting up and thinking about it, Cheng Lin put his cane diagonally on his belt with his backhand, put his hands empty, inserted them in his pockets, and walked leisurely along this branch in the dense fog in front of him.

He wasn't going to use the "Silver Moon Cane" again, and it was okay to use bug items like this one to complete the mission, but in fact, after experiencing it, it was a bit boring - this was an illusory power after all, not reality.

Walking in this place, loneliness and coldness quickly permeated.

The light was dim and dark, and there was a dead silence all around, except for the sound of the wind, and some unknown whistling, and the sound of his own unhurried footsteps and heartbeat, there seemed to be no other noise in the world.

Every branch here is like a tall building, black and hideous, like a ghost claw reaching out towards him.

Cheng Lin looked at all this with great interest, and slowly crossed the invisible dividing line at a constant pace and entered the dense fog.

Distance.

Ai Lu, who was lying on the back of the huge blue bird, stared ahead with wide eyes, she couldn't see anything clearly from this distance, but she could still judge Cheng Lin's progress by the rolling of the clouds.

When she saw a shape like a "whirlpool" emerge in the shadow of the tree in front of her, she couldn't help but fold her hands, put them in front of her, and prayed for Cheng Lin in a low voice.

Although Cheng Lin is a powerful "evil god", since neither the moonlight nor the forest goddess is willing to deal with erosion, in Ailu's opinion, it is very likely that it means that the great danger that exists in the body of the World Tree will make the gods troublesome.

"Will he really succeed?"

The thought rose in Elu's mind.

After a while, she closed her eyes, reverently, and all the distractions in her mind were gone, and there was only one voice left, which was the promise that Cheng Lin had made to her before:

"Of course."

……

……

"Woo ......"

Taking a step in, Cheng Lin vaguely felt as if he had passed through a "membrane", and his body was slightly cool, as if he had walked out of the house at midnight in late autumn.

The sound of the wind in my ears suddenly changed its tone and became eerie and cold.

The sound of the wind, like the whimper of a ghost, exuded an unsettling smell.

"Huh?"

He blinked, taking in the world in the fog.

At some point, the sky shone a dark red.

Like a splash of blood, a large shadow of dark red and pitch black was like substance, peeking through the thick fog that rolled in the sky, barely illuminating the vision.

The ground beneath his feet was no longer dry and dark, but damp and covered with hideous scars.

Cheng Lin clearly saw that he was stepping on a wound tens of meters long, as if the skin had been cut, and the cracked hideous wound had a pale red inside, as if the muscle tissue was wriggling.

Rub it your toes, and a large stream of "blood" will be squeezed out of it.

"This is ......" Cheng Lin's eyes moved, thinking that as Ai Lu said, once he entered it, it would be like stepping into another mysterious realm.

Different space?

The other side of the world?

Or something else?

He was cranky for a moment.

At this time, he suddenly heard a rustling sound in the distance, as if something was shuttling through the dense forest.

After that, there was a rumbling sound, like a beast running.

Then there was a piercing scream wafting in the wind.

There was a thick fog rolling at his feet, and when he swept his eyes, he found that in those dark corners, on the small branches, there were dense white bones.

Some of the bones were clearly beasts unique to this world, their fur was gone, rotten, and only their skeletons were exposed, hanging from the branches.

There were also more slender looking bones, bound by a stenching vine and hanging from tall branches.

"That's the skeleton of an elf."

Cheng Lin thought to himself.

The evil aura rushed to his face, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, thinking that the scene here was much more real than the scene he had faked with the battle spirit before.

If there really is an evil god, then this place is more in line with its identity.

Suddenly, an ear-piercing scream sounded like a claw scratching glass!
