579. Chapter 577: Meeting in the Ghost Forest
With the passage of time, the huge ancient tree is constantly aging, and the strong vermilion bird smell is also more intense. And Yuchen and Huo Qilin, who were cultivating, naturally felt the continuous enhancement of this Vermilion Bird aura. And just after feeling that his physical strength had recovered a lot, Yuchen opened his eyes. "Xiaohuo, do you feel it?" asked Yuchen to the Fire Qilin. "I feel it, although this breath is the breath of Suzaku, but it doesn't carry any anger, it should always be a treasure left by the ancestors of the seven generations of Suzaku. Fire Qilin said. "Is it possible that it could be the Vermilion Bird Essence Yuan Bead?" and after hearing the Fire Qilin's words, Yuchen asked.
"It's possible, but if it's really the Vermilion Bird Essence Bead, then this aura is too weak, unless this - the Vermilion Bird Essence Bead is suppressed!" the Fire Qilin said, "Our guessing here doesn't have any effect, let's go and take a look!" and then the Fire Qilin said.
After hearing the words of the fire qilin, Yuchen nodded, and then Yuchen pulled out the heavy sword inserted in the ground and walked forward step by step, although Yuchen was cautiously staring at the surrounding trees with every step, but the surrounding trees did not attack Yuchen anymore. Despite this, Yuchen still watched his surroundings very cautiously.
And when Yuchen kept walking forward, Yuchen found a strange thing, the trees around Yuchen seemed to be withering at a speed visible to the naked eye, the falling yellowed leaves, the lifeless branches, and a big tree in front of Yuchen, Yuchen just stopped for a moment, Yuchen witnessed it from verdant to yellow, and then from yellowing to lifeless.
And seeing this strange scene, this immediately made Yuchen cautious, "Xiaohuo, it seems to be weird!" Yuchen asked the fire qilin. And the fire qilin couldn't figure out what was going on because the trees around it were constantly withering. Although the surrounding trees were withering, the fog around them did not dissipate or weaken. "I don't know what's going on!Be careful, there may be danger ahead!" the Fire Kirin reminded.
After hearing the words of the fire qilin, Yuchen shook the heavy sword in his hand and continued to walk forward, and Yuchen continued to walk towards the center of the misty forest, and saw more dead trees, almost all around Yuchen were lifeless trees. And as the surrounding trees and the towering ancient tree continued to wither, the fruit on the trunk of the tree also turned almost completely red.
"I feel the breath of that demon beast!" and after a few hours, the Fire Qilin said to Yuchen, "How far is it?" and after hearing the Fire Qilin's words, Yuchen asked. Yuchen even suspected that the changes in the forest might have something to do with the huge monster beast.
And at the same time that the fire unicorn felt the huge demon beast, the eyes were only staring at the demon beast of the fruit, and the eyes suddenly changed, and then the huge demon beast looked in the direction of Yuchen, and when the demon beast looked at the direction where Yuchen was, Yuchen suddenly stopped and stood in place. And the demon beast's gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the mist, making Yuchen feel a tingling scalp, and the hairs on his body stood up.
"It's so strong!" suddenly Yuchen exclaimed. Although Yuchen also felt a kind of staring gaze before, it was just the surrounding trees staring at Yuchen, and that feeling was incomparable to this feeling at all. Although it was just a glance, it made Yuchen feel as if a mountain had pressed on his body, and almost instantly the martial robe on Yuchen's back was soaked with sweat.
And after the demon beast retracted its gaze, Yuchen suddenly felt that both legs were a little weak. "It found us!" Yuchen still remembers the palpitations before!"Yes, he found us, to be exact, he should have discovered me, but what I didn't expect was that his strength had reached this point! Keep going, he wants to see me." And at this time, the fire qilin said.
"Xiaohuo, do you have a chance of winning against him?" After hearing the words of the fire qilin, Yuchen held the heavy sword and continued to walk forward. "If I had been in my prime, I might have been able to fight him, but now, if he tried to kill us, I wouldn't have any power to fight back. Fire Qilin said.
"It's so strong!" And after hearing the fire qilin say this, although Yuchen didn't know how high the specific strength of the demon beast was, but Yuchen knew that even to Grandpa Bai, the fire qilin would not say the sentence that he had no power to fight back!
Since the surrounding trees had withered or even lost their vitality, Yuchen no longer estimated whether the surrounding trees would attack him, and suddenly Yuchen's speed increased a lot. Since that demon beast wants to see the fire qilin, let's see it as soon as possible, anyway, the fire qilin and Yuchen don't have any chance of escaping.
And nearly half an hour later, Yuchen saw the towering ancient tree, but at this moment the ancient tree has aged and does not look good, and the depressed branches, although still extended, do not have any vitality. And the only conspicuous thing is the fist-sized fruit, and it is this fruit that is exuding a strong Vermilion Bird breath, and after seeing this fruit, Yuchen said, "Vermilion Bird Fruit!" It's just that the Vermilion Bird Fruit that Yuchen saw was a little different from the Vermilion Bird Fruit that Yuchen saw before.
And next to the withered ancient tree was the huge demon beast, and the eyes of the huge demon beast were always staring at the fruit, until Yuchen arrived, and the demon beast set its eyes on Yuchen. And after being watched by the demon beast's gaze, a strong pressure suddenly fell on Yuchen's body, and Yuchen was immediately pressed back a few steps. Then Yuchen held the heavy sword on the ground, and then stopped retreating.
"Even if you get off the horse, there's no need to do anything to a weak martial artist!" And at this moment, a cluster of purple-gold flames emerged from Yuchen's forehead, turning into a unicorn beside Yuchen.
"I just don't know how the Fire Qilin, one of the descendants of the five great divine beasts, has fallen into such a situation? The demon beast said after seeing the appearance of the fire unicorn. And after seeing that the demon beast could actually speak human words, Yuchen was also shocked. Although the fire unicorn told Yuchen that when the strength and wisdom of the demon beast reach a certain level, it can speak the words of humans, but this is the first time that Yuchen has seen it outside of the fire unicorn.
"It seems that you are no better than me, and you can only live by hiding here. And after hearing the words of the demon beast, the fire qilin fought back without fear. And after hearing the words of the fire qilin, the demon beast suddenly flashed a fierce light in its eyes, but that hostility was not against the fire qilin. "Hmph, one day I will use my strength to get what I want!" the demon beast looked at the fire qilin and said coldly.
This demon beast is the descendant of the Sky Swallowing Whale and the Black Feather Qiqi, and it sounds good, it has two bloodlines, and if it is unpleasant, it is the "za species", so the demon beasts with this mixed bloodline are basically not welcomed. That's why the fire qilin said that he was hiding here to survive.
And at the same time as the demon beast snorted coldly, a powerful aura spread around, if it weren't for the Fire Qilin's Origin Fire always guarding Yuchen, I'm afraid that Yuchen wouldn't be able to stand there now. "Put your breath away, hurt him, it won't do you any good. The fire unicorn looked at the demon beast and said.
Although this aura was inadvertently emitted by the demon beast, it still caused a lot of pressure on Yuchen. Although the demon beast snorted coldly at the fire qilin, it still restrained the aura on its body. "What are you here for?" and at this moment, the demon beast asked the fire qilin.
"Vermilion Bird Essence Yuan Pearl!" and after hearing the words of the demon beast, the fire qilin said. And after hearing the words of the fire unicorn, the demon beast was also shocked, and then the demon beast said: "As a descendant of the divine beast, you should know the rules of the demon clan, and the descendants of the divine clan are not allowed to interfere with the essence of the Yuan Pearl! ”
"Of course, I know this rule, but the rules don't stipulate that they can't help them get the Jingyuan Bead. And after hearing the words of the demon beast, the fire qilin said. And after hearing the words of the fire qilin, the demon beast immediately looked at Yuchen with a strange expression and said, "Do you want him to embark on that path? ”
"I believe him!" and when the demon beast was about to say something, the fire qilin responded directly. And after hearing the firm voice of the fire qilin, the demon beast also looked at Yuchen curiously, as if it wanted to see what was strange about Yuchen, which made the fire qilin so determined.
"I think you're the one who guards the Essence Bead, right?" and just as the demon beast was looking at Yuchen, the Fire Qilin asked. "That's right, we've been here for generations by order of seven generations of adults. And after hearing the words of the fire qilin, the demon beast said. "But I don't know where the Jing Yuan Zhu is? In fact, because the ancestor of this demon beast was a Za bloodline, he was not treated by the demon clan, and the seventh generation of Suzaku saved his ancestor.
