Qianye didn't rush to the top of the tree to check, but pulled out Dongyue and entered the Force, and a faint layer of crimson brilliance immediately appeared on the blade of Dongyue's sword, and the silver lines on the sword body also shimmered. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After adding Tianshui Heavy Silver and Hair Crystal, Dongyue's power was further enhanced, and it had already far surpassed ordinary seventh-level weapons. Although the trunk of the strange tree is hard, it is only the level of the armored steel plate of the chariot, how can it stop Dongyue from cutting? With a little force, Dongyue has already made a deep cut in the trunk.

The tree trembled for a moment, as if it was wailing, and the purple-black substrate around the roots of the tree also set off layers of ripples, and quickly moved away. This scene looked extremely eerie, as if the big trees, including the purple-black substrate that covered the vast forest, were alive.

However, in the real vision, Qianye saw that it was because after cutting the trunk of the tree, the force flowing inside was disturbed, which caused the entire tree to have a disordered force cycle. The root system of large trees spreads very widely, and the fluctuations of the force are transmitted along the root system, forming layers of fluctuations in the substrate.

Milky white juice oozed from the fissure, and there was a faint fragrant fragrance. When it comes out, it exudes wisps of force. Qianye stretched out his fingers and dipped a little, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

Sure enough, this is the source liquid!

It's just that the Force attribute contained in this natural source liquid is closer to the Void Force, located in the middle of eternal night and dawn, slightly more on the dark side. Compared to the source liquid of the Zhao Valve Pulp Washing Pool, this natural source liquid needs to add many ingredients, and after a series of refining and purification, after removing the Dark Force, it can only be used by the cultivators of the Dawn Force.

But even so, it's amazing enough. Zhao Valve is the top gate valve of the empire, and it also takes two or three months to configure a pool of source liquid, so calculated, the source liquid that a strange tree can make is worth thousands of gold coins, and such a forest is vast, how many strange trees are there? thousands, or even tens of thousands? This forest alone is worthy of a local war for the empire.

Qianye sighed in his heart, this is only a small area on this landmass, and more unknown areas don't know what kind of treasure is still hidden.

It is no wonder that both the Council of the Eternal Night and the Empire are eager to conquer and explore new continents, and once the great masters of the great families have emerged, they will always choose to expand their territory, although this is very risky, and there are many inevitable sacrifices and casualties.

But new frontiers mean more resources, and more resources mean faster development. Only in this way can human beings gain more living space and survive in this world favored by darkness.

At this moment, Qianye suddenly discovered that the shock wave that had been transmitted far away had disappeared somewhere.

Someone!

Qianye immediately opened his true vision and looked in the direction of the shockwave's abnormal movement, only to see a figure faintly flashing, and then disappearing.

The man moved extremely quickly, and even Qianye couldn't catch a follow-up track. He immediately lifted Dongyue in his hand, restrained his breath, and walked towards the place where the figure disappeared step by step.

The figure never appeared in the field of vision again, as if it had the next goal of action, and it was already far away.

As he approached the place where the figure flashed, Qianye suddenly smelled a thick smell of blood. He quickened his pace slightly, and swept across the purple-black substrate like the wind, without stirring up the substrate's fluctuations at all.

Bypassing a big tree, Qianye was suddenly stunned.

Behind the tree, there were several corpses, all dressed in Zhao valve costumes. Qianye's heart sank, and he looked around first, and then walked to the scene.

Most of these Zhao Valve powerhouses, most of whom Qianye recognizes, are all elites in the bloody battle, and they are also the elites sent by Zhao Valve to explore this time, and now they have not yet penetrated into the core area, and they have died here.

Qianye's face changed slightly, and her heart seemed to sink into ice water. He calmed down for a moment, and instead of immediately inspecting the corpses on the ground, he opened his True Eyes Pupil again, sweeping the ground and trees around him one by one.

There were surprisingly few traces of the battle left at the scene, but there was no trace of the blue sky and the purple qi of the West Pole, which meant that Zhao Jundu was not with them.

Qianye exhaled softly, his tense nerves relaxed slightly, and he squatted down and turned over a face-down corpse at his feet, his face suddenly gloomy again.

Not only had he seen this man, but he had known him under the Iron Curtain. When Qianye returned to the Iron Curtain, he once saved a Zhao Lord's team, which was already in a predicament, and this person had the opportunity to escape alone as a general, but he still fought to the death, blocking the attack of several times his own troops, until Qianye arrived.

It is precisely because of this merit that this person was later appreciated by his own family, and he decided to tilt resources and focus on cultivation.

It's just that he didn't expect that the enemy under the Iron Curtain did not let him die, but fell in this strange forest. He was still young, but at the moment all his dreams were gone.

Qianye's heart is like a heavy stone, indescribably heavy. Under the Iron Curtain, in the brutal and bloody battles, a group of elite warriors were sharpened, and it also made it easier for people who fought side by side to recognize each other. There is nothing like life and death again and again, more than testing a person's nature. Although they have been together for a short time, Qianye has regarded those Zhao Lord's warriors who have fought side by side as comrades-in-arms.

Comrade-in-arms, the weight of the word is still above friends.

Qianye reached out and stroked him, then untied his armor and examined the wound. There was only one fatal wound, and that was an extremely thin, smooth knife cut on the side of the neck. This knife was fast and steady, directly cutting off his cervical vertebrae, killing him with one sword.

It seems that this warrior named Zhao Shizhong was killed by a single blow when he encountered an invincible opponent. But the problem is that this knife is too easy to stab, and Zhao Shizhong has no chance to resist at all, so he will cause such a wound.

However, Qianye knew very well his combat power, in the range of combat power of the two ranks of Dark Viscount and Earl, unless someone like Zhao Jundu made a move, and had a domain ability similar to that of Bafang Fengzhen, he could be killed in an instant.

After changing Qianye himself, he was sure to kill Zhao Shizhong in an instant, but it was impossible to create such a wound, and it was impossible to kill so cleanly, so clean that there was no trace of struggle. Could it be that these Zhao Valve warriors have encountered a big man above the Dark Marquis?

Qianye stretched out a finger and pressed it between the throats of the corpse, moving it down little by little, and the fingertips continued to send out wisps of force into Zhao Shizhong's body. When it was moved to his chest, Chiya felt that there was something strange about the force in return, so he pressed it lightly with his fingers, and the skin at the falling finger suddenly sank, and then it didn't bounce up, just like that, forming a pit.

This pit is larger and deeper than a normal corpse, and it is not only the loss of elasticity of the muscles, but also the depression of the sternum. Qianye's finger was not too strong, not enough to invert the sternum. Apparently, for unknown reasons, the corpse's sternum became extraordinarily fragile.

Qianye thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry, brother!"

He drew his saber and cut open the corpse's chest to examine the internal organs. When the chest cavity was opened, all the exposed internal organs were shattered, and some of the organs even turned into a shapeless mass of flesh.

Obviously, Zhao Shizhong was attacked by some kind of mysterious attack, there were no scars on the outside, but almost all the internal organs were destroyed, so he lost his ability to resist and was killed with a knife. In fact, the knife only cut off his last chance to struggle, and all his vitality was ended at the moment when his internal organs were destroyed.

Become a general, there is no dead end in the Force defense, only strong and weak. However, what kind of attack can penetrate the Force defense of a level 12 general and directly destroy the internal organs?

Qianye's heart jumped, and she suddenly had a very bad premonition. He thought of his pupil technique: control, isn't it a similar ability?

Hitomi Technique: Control, which can ignore Force defenses and directly affect the opponent's internal organs. However, Qianye tried, and the destructive power of the control was not strong enough to directly destroy the opponent's core organs, and when he used this ability in the past, he only used this attack to expose the opponent's flaws, so as to master the rhythm of the battle.

However, the person who killed Zhao Shizhong directly destroyed most of his internal organs under the defense of Zhao Valve's elite generals, and this lethality was much stronger than control.

Qianye let out a long breath, always feeling a faint uneasiness in his heart, but there was something in his subconscious that made him instinctively reluctant to think deeply. He examined the remaining corpses and found that there was another one with the same cause of death as Zhao Shizhong. Lower-ranking fighters are mostly innocent, and are instead killed from the outside in by their viscerally strong opponents.

The corpses were thrown here, blood spilling and already causing a reaction from the matrix. The substrate is like loose soil, constantly absorbing blood. The blood-soaked matrix wriggled and crept, piling up and spreading upwards along the corpse. It doesn't seem to be long before the substrate will cover the corpse entirely.

Qianye frowned, looking at the scene in front of him with a very uncomfortable feeling, thinking of his strange encounter in the Black Forest, he always felt that these strange substrates would also devour flesh and blood and turn into nourishment. He wielded a knife to cut open the substrate, then moved all the corpses to one place, sprinkled fuel with fuel, and set them on fire. He would rather these former comrades-in-arms be reduced to ashes in the flames than be drowned in these substrates.

Chiya stood by the fire and watched the raging fire rise. The substrate also seems to be afraid of the flames, constantly retreating to the surroundings. The flames also ignited in the part affected by the flames, but not very violently.

After standing by the fire for a while, Senya walked into the depths of the forest, where the mysterious figure had disappeared. At this moment, he was no longer in the mood to continue exploring the secrets of these strange trees, and only wanted to catch up with the person who had something to do with the death of these Zhao Lord's warriors.

Walking out of a few dozen meters, Qianye looked back, and the raging pillar of fire had become very blurred. Walking a few dozen meters further, without opening his true vision, he could no longer see the pillar of fire that was still burning with his extraordinary vision. This shows how much this forest suppresses perception.

Chiya lit a pillar of fire, and also had the idea of attracting enemies to it. His vision is obviously much farther than that of the average person, and even if someone is close, he can spot his opponent first and launch a fatal blow. But now it seems that the effect is not great, even if the whole tree is ignited, I am afraid that only people within 100 meters can see it.

Qianye walked through the forest unhurriedly, always paying attention to the movements around her.

Hundreds of meters away, a pair of eyes were watching him through a specially made scope. In the scope, in the center of a pair of bat wings, which represent the crosshairs, always follow the movement of Chiya's head.

But until Chiya stepped out of the scope of vision, there were no gunshots in the forest.

In the distance, on the spherical canopy of a large tree, the night pupil lay there, and the breath seemed to be completely integrated with the surroundings. Holding an ornate sniper rifle in her arms, she silently looks at the world around her through the camera.

It wasn't until Qianye walked for a long time that she slowly got up and disassembled the sniper rifle and put it away.

Beside her, the scene blurred and distorted, revealing the figure of a demon, with a faint cyan glow from the vertical pupils on his forehead. He glanced at the pupil with some confusion and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you notice it?"

"If you have any doubts, you can go and see for yourself. The night pupil replied in her usual cold voice.

The demon descendant frowned slightly, and then said, "Your Highness, I didn't mean to offend you. Although I have the Broken Eye, I am still not as good as Your Highness, so my role is to assist and protect you. ”

Hitomi was noncommittal and said, "Let's go to the next place." ”
