Chapter 63: Half of the Immortal Tree, the Blood Lake Gives Birth to Blood Lotus
Walking through the dark dense forest, the surrounding trees seemed to be getting taller and taller, and even found complex and mysterious lines on many tree trunks, spreading from roots to branches, and even on the leaves, a trace of strange light flashed from time to time.
The demon beasts here are already extremely rare, there is not a single divine thought, and even the spiritual sea is gradually reduced to a handful.
Su Qi and the four of them silently approached, the demon beads of the cicada had already become hot, he held the string of Buddha beads in his hand, and the three of Su Qi took off their swords and looked around vigilantly at everything nearby.
They cautiously continued on for most of the hour.
Jian Cicada suddenly screamed in pain and threw his arm straight.
A white bead fell to the ground.
"There must be a big guy in front, in front!" Jian Cicada rubbed his hands, he looked ahead uneasily, "It's stronger than the Empty Ming Realm!"
"Impossible," Lu Celadon frowned, "The Demon King Jackdaw is the ruler of the Demon Valley, how can there be someone here who is stronger than him?"
She turned her head to look at Su Qi again, her eyes full of inquiry.
"There is indeed not such a strong demonic aura ahead....... Su Qi stabbed the demon bead with his sword, it flew up and spun in the air, "But the demon bead is the bone refining of the great monk, and it won't lie, there must be something ahead." ”
Su Qi paused and said uncertainly, "But it may be a dead thing." ”
"Dead thing, the corpse of the great demon?" Jian Cicada was stunned for a moment.
"Not necessarily......" Su Qi groaned, he had read a classic book, which said that there were ancient demons who had refined weapons, and the demonic spirit was restrained and unpretentious, so Su Qi was very suspicious, his eyes could not see the demonic aura of that kind of demon soldiers.
As for the Demon Bead, it relies on the laws of heaven and earth to sense the demon qi, which is not the same as Su Qi's vision.
"Maybe it's a demon soldier. Su Qi said his guess.
Lu Celadon looked moved, "I heard Gu Jiu say...... The Demon Valley was smashed out by a weapon. ”
"What?"
Su Qi was taken aback, "What weapon can smash such a big deep valley?"
Lu Qingci said slowly, "You should also know that Gu Jiu is from the Ten Thousand Ancient Palace, this inheritance is very special, although it is not as good as the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, but it is almost one of the oldest sects in the Eastern Five States, it is said that seven thousand years ago, the people of the Ten Thousand Ancient Palace saw a streamer falling, smashing on Yuezhou, the ground shook the mountains, and even the Ten Thousand Ancient Palace, which was thousands of miles away, was affected, and since then, there has been a demon valley in the world." ”
"They think it's ......." Su Qi turned his head to look at the depths of the dense forest, a little panicked.
"Heavenly Demon Soldiers. ”
Jian Cicada swallowed his saliva, "Wouldn't there really be a Heavenly Demon Soldier hidden in front of this......?"
Su Qi suddenly said, "No, if there really is a Heavenly Demon Soldier, then how could the Jackdaw not take it?
Several people looked at each other, silent.
"It's good to go and take a look," Zhao Riyue raised her claws on the side, "Seeing is believing, Uncle Xiaoshi, you said it." ”
Su Qi was a little hesitant, this place was weird, how do you know if you can come back.
However, Lu Celadon was extremely decisive, "Sun and Moon are right, you should always take a look." ”
Su Qi looked at her, there was no hesitation in her eyes.
"Let's go. He sighed, shook the Buddha beads, and took away the demon beads.
As the group continued to walk, light gradually shining in the dense forest ahead.
"It seems...... This forest is coming to an end?"
Jiancia walked in the front, a little puzzled.
Su Qi didn't say anything, and when he got closer, he saw clearly that there was indeed a large amount of demonic energy in front of him, but it was hazy and weak.
A few people walked out of the dense forest and found a hill in front of them, hundreds of meters high, and the top of the mountain was flat and smooth.
The hill grew neither grass nor leaves, it was bare, and there was nothing but sand and gravel.
"Huh?"
Lu Celadon sighed lightly and pointed to the top of the mountain, "There seems to be something there." ”
"That's ...... Half a piece of wood?" Jian Cicada said uncertainly.
"There is also a stone tablet!" Zhao Riyue's eyes were sharp, "It's under the wood!"
Several people cautiously approached, and Su Qi looked at the things in front of him in a daze.
They were right, half a piece of wood and a stone tablet.
The whole body of the wood was charred black, as if it had been burned by fire, and the lines on it were strange, as if it had been made by nature, and as if it had been carved on it, and the stele was half buried in the earth, only a small half was obliquely exposed, and the wood was horizontal on the stele, and the two seemed to be glued together.
"This wood...... It's like an immortal!"
Jian Cicada looked at it for a long time and said in surprise.
"Immortal Tree, Ancient Divine Tree Immortal Tree, Isn't this thing extinct a long time ago?" Su Qi lowered his head, his eyes glowed with golden light, not to mention that it was a palm-sized piece, it was a piece of immortal wood the size of a thumb, I am afraid that he could buy half of Lin'an City!
Jian Cicada turned around, "That's right, it's definitely right, I don't feel that there is a palm-sized fragment of immortal wood in the temple, and the lines on it are very similar to this!"
"How could the immortal wood be left here like this?" Su Qi scratched his head, very puzzled, "Not to mention the jackdaw, what about the group of demon generals under him?
"What's that?"
Lu Celadon pointed to the stone tablet, looking confused, the words on it were like twisted dragons and snakes, and each word was like dozens of small snakes tangled together.
"It's not the word of the human race," Su Qi squatted down, "It's not a demon text, I can't see it...... I've seen that word before!"
Su Qi suddenly pointed to a character in the middle, "I bought a strange stone in Lin'an City, and there are a few scratches on it that are very similar to this character. ”
Jiancia leaned aside, "I seem to have seen ...... too"
Su Qi turned his head, touched his head, and pondered, "It seems that my master has an ancient painting with a lot of words inscribed on it, all of which are like this...... Uh, very strange word. ”
Su Qi and the others studied the wood and the stele, and Zhao Riyue on the side walked to the other end of the hillside, and after a while, Zhao Riyue shouted over there.
"Little, little uncle, senior sister, big monk, you, come here!"
The three of them rushed over quickly, and they were all stunned.
The hillside on this side was covered with blood.
The entire hillside was dyed dark red, and at the foot of the mountain there was a blood lake with a blood lotus in the lake.
And that blood lotus only gave birth to one leaf.
The flower bones hang low on the surface of the lake, as if drinking blood.
Su Qi swallowed. He had confirmed that this lake of blood was the demonic aura he had just seen.
"That lotus," Jian Cicada stabbed Su Qi's arm, and although he didn't say it directly, he also noticed that Su Qi seemed to have a special ability to identify aura, "It's a demon." ”
"Yes......" Su Qi nodded with difficulty, "but it seems that something is protecting it, and I can't see its demonic aura." ”
"Moreover, this blood lotus seems to be conscious. ”
Su Qi shuddered and pointed to the flower bones that were slowly lifting and turning towards them.
