Chapter 90: Woe and Blessing
He hurriedly opened his eyes and looked around, but saw nothing.
"Did I hear me wrong?" he muttered to himself, but he didn't dare to stop and rest.
He looked at the mute beside him, and since just now, she had been sometimes sleepy and sometimes awake, and her face was a little frighteningly pale, which seemed to be the cause of too much blood loss.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the pain on his body, Su Moyu once again picked up the dumb child, patted her head and said, "Don't be afraid." ”
She had said this before.
This sentence couldn't be simpler, but it gave Su Moyu a great sense of security at that time.
He said this to her now in the hope that it would also reassure her.
"Just bear with me and wait until we get out. Su Moyu said to the dumb child.
The mute, who was in a semi-comatose state, nodded lightly and did not speak.
Su Moyu untied his belt and tied the two together. Along the dark passage, continue to grope forward.
Finally, when the road came to an end, a small cave appeared in front of me, and there were solid walls on all sides, and it seemed that it was a dead end.
It was at this critical moment that the dumb child opened his eyes, looked at the surroundings, and pointed to the ground with his finger.
Su Moyu understood, and quickly touched it with his hand in the direction of the dumb finger, and finally turned over a loose stone slab in a corner. Lifting the stone slabs, there was a cave below, and a faint wind was blowing up from below, apparently leading to something else.
Seeing this situation, Su Moyu didn't dare to hesitate for a minute and continued to continue. The road here was even more difficult than before, and Su Moyu almost crawled through this section of the road, and finally saw a light in front of him before his patience and physical strength were exhausted.
According to Su Moyu's calculations, they should still be in the mountains at this time, how could there be light at this time?
When he crawled out of the dark passage, he finally saw the source of the light source, and he was dumbfounded for a while, not knowing what to say.
The scene in front of me can only be described as magnificent.
In front of Su Moyu, there was a giant tree root that was white and exuded a soft glow. The upper end of the tree root, even the dome of this cave, and the lower end is still buried deep in the ground and does not know where it leads.
Around the white roots, dazzling sparks will shine from time to time, which is extremely beautiful.
Moreover, although it was far away, Su Moyu clearly sensed that there was great energy contained in this tree root.
He didn't know what it was, and he was about to ask the dumb child on his back, but when he turned around, he saw that she was already sleeping on his shoulder.
Her eyes were slightly closed, and her slender eyelashes were slightly upturned, with a beauty that did not match her countenance.
Su Moyu smiled, first thinking about the night she first saw her, and then remembering the first time she took herself underground.
Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration, and I thought of the aura storm that day, and suddenly understood what this tree root in front of me meant? Yes, this should be the spiritual root.
"I used to think that the so-called spiritual roots were just some ethereal things, but I didn't expect them to really exist like tree roots! It's just that this kind of solid spiritual energy, what kind of density should it be?" Su Moyu thought about it as he reached out and touched the spiritual root.
When his fingers touched the spiritual root, he felt that his breathing was a little stagnant for a while.
Although there was no change in front of him, at that moment, Su Moyu clearly saw a vast sea of aura.
The amount of spiritual energy in this section of the spiritual root is something that Su Moyu has never imagined so far.
"Oh my God, what if...... It would be great if he could absorb it!" Su Moyu thought about it unintentionally, but after an instant, something unexpected happened.
A large amount of spiritual energy poured into his body through his arm like a mountain, and finally disappeared into his soul.
The super tyrant system, in his unintentional, was activated.
In the process of absorbing the aura, the aura that flowed through his body also began to repair his body by the way.
The wounds caused by the previous battle are recovering at a speed that is visible to the naked eye, and the fatigue that has accumulated is also subsiding little by little.
Although it is unlikely that he will recover in such a short time, it is already a good thing for him now.
With the absorption of spiritual energy, the spiritual root in front of him gradually began to thin and darken.
Correspondingly, the parts connected to the mountain gradually withered and loosened. After losing the support of the spiritual root, the mountain wall above his head began to fall stones, and this closed underground cave was in danger of collapsing.
Su Moyu was startled, he didn't want to bury his bones here, although he was reluctant, he still quickly stopped and let go of the hand that touched the spirit root.
It was only a short period of time, and the section of spiritual root in front of him became thinner by about one-third.
Correspondingly, in the founding space deep in Su Moyu's soul, the concentration of aura soared again, and it was actually more than ten times more than the last time he got the aura in the Xuanling Cave.
"The ancients said that blessings and misfortunes are relied upon, and misfortunes and blessings are lurking, and it is true. Su Moyu said happily.
Although the injury has not healed, his condition is better than before. What's more, after the aura was replenished, his confidence was even stronger.
Now, as long as he doesn't encounter a freak like Yuan Yangzi, or a large number of sect disciples, regardless of life and death, he has the confidence to escape from Tianjian Mountain with a dumb child.
But at this time, above his head, a large number of rocks fell, and after a while, a small hole collapsed.
And at the end of the hole, a miserable white face slowly poked out.
This startled Su Moyu, in such a dim environment, seeing a face above the collapsed cave, is it hell?
The face glanced down, saw Su Moyu at a glance, and said in surprise: "Hey, how can there be a person here?"
Before Su Moyu could react, the face on his head turned away and stretched out an arm from the side.
What surprised Su Moyu even more was that the arm snaked downward, like a snake more than ten feet long, and suddenly wrapped Su Moyu and the two of them, and then pulled them up.
The other party's strength is very strong, and Su Moyu, who is now so big, can't break free, so he can only let the other party drag upward.
A moment later, Su Moyu and the others were taken to a higher layer by each other, and the cave on this layer was more open and brighter.
But before Su Moyu could see the surrounding environment clearly, there was a chill on his neck, and the generally curved sickle stopped in front of his throat.
