A ray of morning light reflected on Tianxing's fair face, waking him up from meditation, he slowly let out a long breath, exhaled the turbid qi in his abdomen, and then looked at the lion rock on the side.

"I'm bah~!The flesh and blood of this soul beast is really getting more and more unpalatable~!" Shi Yan spit out the scrap of minced meat in his mouth, pouted and said.

Just an hour ago, although the two of them were extremely cautious, but due to the unfamiliar environment, they stumbled into this area by mistake and were attacked by a black bear-like soul beast, and the two of them worked together to kill the soul beast, so they rested here to recover the excessive spiritual power consumed in their bodies.

Shiyan burns blood to restore his spiritual power, so he constantly needs to eat a lot of meat to supply the energy he has lost.

As time passed, they had been in this canyon for three days, and they were getting closer and closer to the end of the canyon, and relatively speaking, they had encountered fewer and fewer soul beasts, and their strength was getting higher and higher.

However, for some reason, Tianxing always felt that this was a little unreasonable, although the strength of the soul beasts here was indeed stronger than the high level on the periphery, but it was only the middle-level strength of the Spirit Sect, and the strength of the two of them could be killed, and the way forward was unexpectedly smooth, I don't know if it was because of their luck, or because there were other reasons.

And this so-called other reason is what Tianxing has always been worried about in his heart, if there is such a power that can completely suppress the strength breakthrough of soul beasts above the middle level of the Spirit Sect, then this power is definitely incomparable to him and Shiyan, and the uneasiness in his heart is getting stronger and stronger as the distance he advances.

As the two of them continued to go deeper into the canyon, the number of trees around them was also increasing, and the sky above them was gradually approaching, all of them were shrouded in dense branches and leaves, and everything around them seemed so gloomy and quiet, suddenly, a rustling sound came, and Tianxing stopped moving forward and looked around cautiously.

With his keen sense of smell, Shi Yan sniffed hard in the air, but he didn't find anything abnormal, he turned his head to look at Tianxing and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tianxing looked at the surrounding forest with keen eyes, he felt as if he was being watched by some creature, but no matter how his spiritual power inquired about his feelings, he didn't find the existence of an abnormal aura, "Is it my illusion?" Tianxing shook his head suspiciously, and continued to walk forward with Shiyan in desperation.

The breeze of Xi Xi blew through this forest, and there was a sound of aerobic flutes in the woods, and the sky and the lion frowned slightly, and secretly wondered in their hearts: "Who actually has this Yaxing, and actually plays the flute in this strange place?"

Puzzled, the two walked some distance from each other towards the place where the voice sounded.

The melodious sound of the flute meandered into the ears of the two, soothing their tense insides, and slowly the whole body and mind were immersed in this music, the sound was clear and ethereal, clear and soothing, like a dream, like the sound of heaven.

Both of them secretly said in their hearts: "It's so beautiful~!", especially Shi Yan was numb, as if he was tired of drinking drunk, and unconsciously, tears soaked his eyes.

"Where did this beautiful sound come from?" With this doubt, Tianxing's steps seemed to be bewitched by something, and he staggered to the foot of a towering tree in the forest, and put his ear to the tree.

"It's amazing~!This beautiful sound is actually made by this big tree~!" Tianxing stretched out his hands to wrap his arms around the trunk of the tree in great intoxication, "It's so beautiful, it's so wonderful~ This voice!"

At the same time, Shi Yan also threw away the moon blade in his hand, and snuggled his whole body in the hollow of another towering tree, like a baby sleeping in swaddling clothes, sucking his thumb and enjoying this happiness that belonged to him.

Just when the sky and the lion were immersed in this beautiful vocal music, the branches of the tree were like spiritual snakes, slowly extending down, wrapping their bodies tightly, but they were suddenly unknown, and did not make any resistance.

Just when a thin branch gradually wrapped around Tianxing's wrist, the iron ring suddenly trembled violently, and a purple thunderbolt flashed from the iron ring, "Crack~!" A crisp sound made Tianxing wake up instantly, when he realized that his body had been bound by the branches and vines, he resolutely became angry and ran the power of the five elements and the whole body, releasing the power of thunder and lightning in the iron ring, under the staggered fetters of the two forces, with a "crackling" sound, finally broke off the vine branches around the body and escaped.

At this moment, the melodious rhythm sounded again, causing him to fall into a wave of confusion in his mind, and Tianxing immediately bit down the tip of his tongue, and the pain in his heart made his eyes instantly return to clarity.

"It's not good~!This voice can deceive people~!" Tianxing hurriedly turned Pu Yuan around his body, maintaining the sobriety in his heart, and then pulled out two lumps of cotton wool from his clothes and stuffed them into his ears, so that his mind was no longer disturbed by the music.

Tianxing turned his head to look at Shiyan, only to see that he was greedily leaning on the tree, listening to this beautiful melody, with a strange expression on his face, as if he had fallen asleep, and his expression was also very confused, but there were countless vine branches around him, like a living thing, and his strong and huge body was tightly wrapped inside.

Tianxing immediately rushed forward to Shiyan's side, tearing those vine branches vigorously, while constantly calling Shiyan's name loudly, but Shiyan didn't know that no matter how hard Tianxing tried, Shiyan still didn't wake up, coupled with his tall body, Tianxing really seemed helpless.

Looking at the vine branches that winded around the lion rock, in a hurry, Tianxing immediately picked up the moon blade long knife that fell from the lion rock and held it tightly in his hand, and then jumped up with both arms, and slashed the blade towards the tree where the lion rock was located, but at the moment when the moon blade was cut into the tree body, the melodious rhythm stopped instantly, and was replaced by "Uh~..." , A piercing and sharp sound burst out, this ugly sound was like a heavy hammer, smashed into Shiyan's heart, and woke him up from a daze, he covered his ears and blinked his eyes in confusion, as if he couldn't remember what he had done before~!

Tianxing hurriedly pulled Shiyan to quickly break free of those vine branches, and then hurried a few steps away from the area attacked by the strange tree, pulled out cotton wool from between his clothes, blocked it in Shiyan's ears, and said in a spiritual voice: "These trees are a little weird, they can disturb people's hearts, and they must not be careless anymore~!"

Shi Yan nodded, looking around with a wary expression.

Tianxing was afraid that the abnormal movement just now would attract the attack of the soul beast, and when he used his spiritual power to scan the surrounding environment, he found that there were no other strange beasts except these trees, so he breathed a sigh of relief, frowned slightly and carefully looked at the strange trees in front of him, and wondered why these trees could play music.

After some inspection, he realized that "the inside of these trees is hollow, there are many black holes in the trees, and the body of the trees is also crooked, very much like the flute that I once played, when there is a breeze blowing around, the wind will pass through the tree, and it will emit pleasant music from it, to attract the surrounding creatures to come here." ”

Just when Tianxing was suspicious, Shi Yan patted Tianxing's shoulder with a cautious face, and pointed to the top of the canopy that covered the sky.

Tianxing immediately looked up, and his heart was suddenly shocked, there were actually the corpses of many creatures and some stumps and severed arms hidden in the canopy, including the bones of humans and orcs.

Seeing this scene that confirmed his suspicions, Tianxing felt a chill in his back, a strong wind hit, and with the sound of rustling leaves, the remains hanging on the tree shook at will like wind chimes.

"No wonder there are so few soul beasts here, they all died here~!"

The atmosphere in the air seemed to freeze at this moment, the original lush forest, the melodious melody, at this moment, turned out to be so eerie, those music also seemed to be, from the call of death, the emerald green branches and vines seemed to be harmless and swaying lightly with the wind, but in fact they were like lurking demon beasts, just waiting for the prey to throw themselves into the net, unpredictable danger, so that fear was like the sharp and sharp claws of the beast, tightly hooking the already cautious nerves of Tianxing, so that he really did not dare to be careless。

"Brother, thank you just now, fortunately, there is your existence, otherwise the old lion and I will die here today~!"

But Tianxing didn't say a word, raised his head and looked at the corpses quietly, his eyebrows twisted together, and then said in disbelief: "Brother Lion, have you found these corpses, they are a little unusual, they actually have no signs of decay, and the body still has intact skin and flesh, as if the water in the body has been evaporated, the whole body has contracted together and become smaller, just like the leather soaked in water has been crumpled together~!"

Shi Yan looked at the corpse at the top of the tree as he said, and sure enough, it was just as Tianxing said, but Shi Yan didn't care what the connection was between the same and the different.

As if to see the confusion in Shi Yan's heart, Tianxing continued: "I have been to the desert once, and I have seen some corpses buried in the sand, and those corpses have the same death characteristics as these corpses, but in this place where the humidity and aura are strong, how can there be such dry corpses like those in the desert?" ......
