Chapter 18: The Broken Giant Tree
The ice spear entered the body, and the cold air was fierce, wrapping the giant tree tightly, slightly blocking the view.
Yu Zhang was confident, with the power of the dragon's son Jiaotu, this all-out attack, not to mention killing, at least had to hit this tree-shaped spirit beast hard.
Yu Zhang's chest was a little undulating, and his breathing was a little short, and he looked a little overwhelmed.
He slowly descended from the air, and the surging spiritual power around his body also converged into his body, and the hair that was raised by the surging spiritual power also hung down slightly, covering half of the horns on his forehead.
Yu Zhang waved his hand and used his spiritual power to blow away the cold air in the sky, revealing the body of the pitch-black giant tree full of holes.
Of the hundreds of ice spears, a small half was blocked by it with its core rattan, and the remaining half were all fiercely pierced into its trunk.
Even its huge vines, which were strong enough to repel the peerless spiritual weapon, were cut off by the ice spear.
I saw a trickle of black juice flowing out of various wounds, coming into contact with the ice spear, corroding a faint white smoke.
"Dead?"
Yu Chang slowly approached it, and he could feel its dying breath.
As long as one more blow is added, it is estimated that it will be able to completely erase its vitality.
Yu Chang walked around the main trunk of the giant tree, trying to find its weakest point, but also to find the location of its spirit core.
The whole trunk looks gloomy and gloomy, and there is no big difference to be seen.
Yu Chang continued to observe, and when he circled behind it from the front, Yu Zhang's face changed abruptly, and the dragon claws on his hands were covered with thin ice, and he grabbed forward.
The giant tree is playing dead!
It uses most of its core trunk to attract attention, and takes advantage of the time when it is careless, sticking countless tiny roots into the ground, trying to replenish its energy and charge up for a counterattack.
There was already a lot of black light lingering on those roots, and before Yu Zhang's sharp claws could attack, it gathered in a few days, and a thick black light like a bucket rushed out, from the dragon's claws to the head, enveloping Yu Zhang's entire person.
In the next moment, Yu Zhang's whole person flew upside down for hundreds of meters, crashing into many black trees before stopping.
Yu Zhang stood up with his support on the ground, and there was more or less pain all over his body, and he looked at it, and the blue scales on his whole body were stained with a layer of burnt black.
The black substance clung to the scales like a parasite, constantly eroding Yuzhang's defenses.
And whenever Yu Zhang wanted to use his spiritual power to shake away those black substances, the meridians in his body seemed to be blocked, making the flow of spiritual power extremely slow.
Yu Chang sensed that something was wrong, and reacted instantly, his hands changed several times, and finally placed them in a circle shape on his chest.
At the same time, the spiritual power in the body boiled, and a large amount of white qi emerged from the body.
The white qi was transformed by the evaporating spiritual power, and it was bound to pass through the scales on the surface of the body, confronting the black matter that was attached.
I saw that a lot of black substances were neutralized by the white gas, revealing the beautiful blue scales again.
Perhaps because of the excessive consumption of the previous battle, the spiritual power was insufficient, and the white qi and black matter were always stalemate, and they could not be completely cleared for a long time.
At the same time, the black trees in the distance, which had not yet been absorbed, all trembled like ghosts, and the leaves rustled as if they were sending some signal.
"Trouble. Yu Zhangxin was not good.
Sure enough, a moment later, wave after wave of vibrations came from the ground in the black forest, and this vibration was getting closer and closer, as expected, it should be the flame ant queen who led the army back to defense.
Since the Flame Ant Queen has returned so soon, has Xiao Hao already failed?
"Sure enough, is it too much nonsense to let a person who is just a demon governor attract the attention of a sixth-order spirit beast?"
A trace of the worst thought flashed in Yu Zhang's heart, but he suppressed it.
If you want to be distracted and worry about other things at this time, not only Xiao Hao, but even him has to explain here.
Hearing that the flame ant queen was getting closer and closer, Yu Zhang's heart became more and more flustered.
The seal knot in his hand changed again, and the speed of the white gas emitted suddenly increased, like an explosion, and with a "bang", Yu Zhang forcibly detonated those spiritual powers and expelled those difficult black substances.
But at the corresponding cost, the scales on Yu Zhang's body were also affected by the explosion, and the flesh and blood flew up, trickling blood, staining his whole person into a bloody man.
Hit hard by this, there was no time for Yu Zhang to ease.
Now that the black substance that hinders the operation of spiritual power in his body has been completely removed, he can unleash the last remaining spiritual power, whether it is to attack or retreat, the choice is in his own hands.
It's just that the pain of tearing flesh and skin that is enough to shock ordinary people in the past really made him drink a pot hard.
Yu Zhang's expression suddenly turned ruthless, and he smiled, the four tiger fangs that were exposed made him as frightened as a blood-colored demon.
"So, before the queen returns, get rid of it as quickly as possible," he muttered.
Then Yu Zhang's eyes suddenly became fierce, and since most of the blood components were water, he manipulated all the blood that had flowed out of his body and gathered them together.
The blood condensed together, the size of half a person, and under Yu Zhang's control, it spun at high speed.
Soon, the mass of blood shrank extremely quickly, turning into a small stream of concentrated essence blood.
Yu Chang wiped it with the index finger of his right hand, and used the essence blood to draw a mysterious symbol on his forehead.
Immediately after, his lips moved slightly: "Receive the mystery, the second weight, the whole body is half-beast!"
His hands swelled violently and a thick layer of scales covered his entire arm.
At the same time, his claws also grow outward, as if they have changed from harmless cat's claws to ferocious tiger's paws.
At the same time, his legs have also undergone similar changes.
At this moment, Yu Zhang's whole person looks like a vicious half-dragon man: dragon claws, dragon legs, dragon horns, only the dragon tail is missing.
And the turquoise scales all over his body were dyed with a layer of black, becoming deeper and more stable.
After the change was completed, Yu Zhang's entire aura was completely renewed, from a gentle and elegant person to a vicious dragon in a nap, as long as there was a small movement, the dragon would wake up and give this piece of heaven and earth a devastating blow.
With a slight kick of his explosive legs, Yu Zhang's entire body turned into an extremely fast dark blue luster, rushing towards the dying black giant tree.
The giant tree repeated, and the black light struck again.
This time, the black light directly penetrated Yu Zhang's body, but except for a slight fluctuation of the air current, no blood splashed out of his body.
It's an afterimage!
Seeing that the attack had failed, the giant tree did not stop there, and black beams of light shot out one after another, but except for one afterimage, it never hit anything again.
At the same time, I saw a dark blue figure slashing like lightning, and countless hideous scars appeared on the main trunk of the pitch-black giant tree.
Every time Yu Chang jumps and lands, the giant tree's injuries will increase by one point, until its core is hollowed out alive...
"Boom!" The pitch-black giant tree suddenly broke into two, and the upper half fell outward, and the towering giant tree fell, which was as long as half a black forest, and the movement caused was also very great, and many teams who were busy hunting heard this huge roar.
As soon as the giant tree fell, three powerful auras rushed not far away.
Yu Zhang guessed that it must be the patriarch of the three major families.
As for Kanayama Yoko, he should be busy protecting the young people who are getting carried away for the rankings in the dangerous night.
However, there was someone else who arrived a little earlier than the three of them, the Flame Ant Queen.
Originally, Xiao Ju was asked to attract the firepower of the Flame Ant Queen and the Flame Ant Legion, but it was because of the Flame Queen's weak attack power and Xiao Juri's own high resistance to fire poison that he came up with this strategy.
But the queen ant was summoned by the special signal of the giant tree, so she rushed back in advance, and I don't know if something happened to Xiao Ju.
Yu Zhang, who has never had any human friends, feels that he suddenly has a special feeling for Xiao Hao.
That affection is not as a warden's shelter for his subordinates, but something similar to what I see in the book called bonding and friendship.
Yu Chang ignored the flame ant queen, and instead turned around and ran towards the black forest, wanting to determine Xiao Hao's location with his own eyes.
If he is injured, the sooner it is detected, the better.
At this time, the bright red blood lines on Yu Zhang's forehead had gradually faded, and the half-beast transformation of his whole body could no longer be maintained.
A flash of light flashed, and Yu Zhang changed back into a human form again.
At this time, because his spiritual power has not yet recovered, he is just running with the power of his body.
He ran to the place where he had set the trap before.
On the ground were piles of flame ant carcasses. There are also dozens of huge potholes, which look extremely conspicuous.
He had used the power of the undead bird's fire here to set a flame trap.
The plan was for Xiao Ju to lure them over, and while leaving the pitch-black giant tree, he would also lose some of the combat power of the Flame Ant Legion.
And looking at the current scenario, it is obvious that the plan has been executed.
Yu Zhang calmed down, feeling the movement nearby.
Except for the three powerful Spirit Sect auras that were the most significant, most of the rest were the "rustling" sound of the flame ant soldiers scattered nearby stepping on the fallen leaves.
"Where?"
Yu Chang bit his lip lightly, a trace of blood oozed out, and once again used the spiritual power in the blood to expand his perception to a farther distance.
Suddenly, another inconspicuous aura in the jungle caught his attention.
This aura was also running towards the middle of the black forest, although this person's aura was much weaker than the three patriarchs, but his movement speed was several times faster than that of the flame ant colony.
If it weren't for the other contestants who heard the movement and rushed over, it would have been one person.
Yu Zhang immediately rushed over there.
Soon, that qi was close at hand.
Because most of the black trees near the interior here have been sucked in nutrients, the dense foliage has all withered and withered, and the moonlight has been able to shine in.
Through the faint moonlight, Yu Zhang saw the man covered in tattered clothes from behind, as if he had just experienced a hard battle, so that he could not distinguish his identity through his clothes.
Yu Zhang chased after him and patted him on the back, but who expected that the man would punch him with a backhand.
Yu Zhang's right hand turned into a palm and took the punch hard. He felt that the other party's punch was also infused with no spiritual power, and it was all based on the strength of the flesh.
But Yu Zhang has a body that can withstand the soul of a divine beast, and compared to strength, he boasts that he is not inferior to anyone of the same level.
Yu Zhangyong grabbed his fist, then twisted to the right, and directly used brute force to knock the opponent to the ground.
Taking this opportunity, the two finally saw each other's faces clearly.
"Xiao Hao!"
"Big brother?"
Both exclaimed at the same time.
Yu Zhang asked, "Why are your clothes tattered like this, and all your hair is gone?" I almost didn't recognize you. ”
Yu Zhang said that his clothes were tattered. He was now naked except for a few rags hanging from his lower body.
And that hair, you can already go to the monk's temple to become a monk.
Xiao Yu scratched his bald head and said embarrassedly: "That flame ant queen and its army are too difficult, and that number can be put in the sky to cover the clouds and the sun." ”
"And the flame ant queen can spit magma in her mouth, I am not afraid of fire poison, but this clothes and hair are really unbearable. ”
He continued, "But I eventually led them to the trap, and in an instant, most of the flame ants were destroyed. It's a pity that the flame ant queen always hid behind and couldn't hurt it. ”
"Originally, I was leading, but suddenly I found that they were no longer chasing, and they all ran back, and I noticed that something was wrong, so I chased them. ”
Yu Zhang took a look and found that there were many large and small scars on his bare skin, and it seemed that the actual situation was not as easy as he said, and it must have taken a lot of effort and effort to achieve such an effect.
"You're doing a great job. Yu Zhang praised.
Xiao Ju was stunned, Yu Zhang suddenly said something so serious, or praised him, which made him a little overwhelmed.
He paused for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "Oh yes, I heard a loud bang over there, no problem, right?"
"Can I still have a problem? Of course, it's solved. Yu Zhang replied arrogantly.
"Have you got the spirit core, that's a full 100,000 points!" Xiao Ju's eyes lit up, as if a sixth-order spirit technique had been sent to him.
"Oh no, I forgot!" Yu Zhang said.
Xiao Ju was taken aback, and thought to himself: "Big brother, can you forget this?" Not to mention these 100,000 points, the value of the sixth-order spirit core is also very high!"
But the eldest brother is the eldest brother after all, just think about it, but you still can't say it.
So the two looked at each other, and ran together towards the center.
