Chapter 1217: Weird Ancient Tree

The distance of thirty miles was only an instant for Wakakiha's rapidity, but for some reason, when Ling Yu and the four of them drove Wakakiha forward for only ten miles, they felt a sense of sluggishness.

That sense of stagnation was the power in the mysterious fields that permeated the void, and when Ling Yu sensed that power, he had been bound by it for a long time.

The power that pervades the field is not as irresistible as the coercion of the Immortal Venerable, but a mysterious power that inadvertently imprisons and binds them without anyone noticing. When Ling Yu noticed it, it was too late.

From the long stream of water to the freezing three feet, Ling Yu finally understood that in fact, when he set foot in the Nine Realms of the Heavenly Dome, he had already been targeted. And that power was not just against him alone, but at all the cultivators who entered the Chaotian Tower, without discrimination, and nothing was missed.

"Xiao Yu, the mysterious power in the Nine Realms of the Heavenly Dome cannot be underestimated! ”

Fu Chao felt the mysterious power that seeped into the five organs from the pores, and his face became solemn.

"I said, we can't rush into such a far place. Originally, I thought that I would hide in the dark with the little lion, and when something happened to me, I would be able to help, but now it's better to be taken by someone!"

Hearing the words of the ambush, Xiao Hei pursed his thick lips and kept muttering.

At this time, the four of them were only twenty miles away from the dead tree in front of them. And there are only two paths in front of everyone, one is to move forward, and the other is to turn back.

"Xiao Hei and Simba, can you two still hold on?" Ling Yu sighed secretly, turned his head to look at Simba and Xiao Hei, and asked in a deep voice.

The power of Ling Yu's divine sense was powerful, and even though the void was filled with infinite coercion, with his cultivation, it was not greatly affected. And as the first person in Huaxia in the past, the power of his divine sense is only stronger than his own, so there is no need to worry.

And what really worries Ling Yu is the two demon beasts, Xiao Hei and Simba. Although their cultivation was not weak, Ling Yu could see that the two of them were having a hard time at this time.

"I ...... It should last a while!" Simba insisted through gritted teeth.

Seeing that Simba chose to move on, Xiao Hei could only snort angrily, and finally looked at Simba with murderous eyes, and said to Ling Yu: "I'm fine, since the little lion can persevere, how can I escape from the battle!"

When Xiao Hei gritted his teeth and resisted, Simba could even clearly perceive the infinite killing intent emanating from Xiao Hei's body, and the target of that killing intent was himself.

Seeing Xiao Hei's expression, Ling Yu and Fu Chao couldn't help but smile. The two of them took a deep breath and continued to steer Wakaki Leaf towards the dead tree twenty miles away from them.

When the four of them were only ten miles away from the dead tree, the pressure in the void was even stronger. If the coercion they felt before was a drizzle, then the coercion they felt at this time was a torrential rain and thunder. Even, even the internal organs are squeezed.

Cold sweat dripped down the foreheads of the four of Ling Yu, their faces flushed, and their teeth clenched. Because of the endless oppression, the four of them couldn't even straighten their backs.

"How are you guys, can you hold on?" Ling Yu endured the pressure and turned his head to look at Xiao Hei and Simba. Even a person as tough as Ling Yu almost collapsed, so you can imagine how strong the pressure Xiao Hei and Simba will face.

"I'm fine! His grandmother's! Today, the demon king is crushed into ashes, and he has to fight him to the end!" His eyes radiated a dazzling red ferocity, and he roared unyieldingly.

And when Ling Yu's eyes looked at Simba, he found that Simba's face was red as if he was about to drip blood. But even so, he still didn't want to give up.

"The last ten miles!"

Seeing that Simba and Xiao Hei were gritting their teeth and resisting, Ling Yu wanted to put the two down, but felt that it was inappropriate. This place is full of weirdness, and if Xiao Hei and Simba are left behind, Ling Yu is worried that they will be in unimaginable danger.

Therefore, Ling Yu could only rush towards the dead wood in front of him with all his might.

In fact, he didn't know what kind of sinister Ling Yu was all over the vicinity of the dead wood, but his intuition told him that this dead wood was anything but unusual, even if it was not the entrance to the lower realm of the Nine Realms of the Heavenly Dome, it must be hiding some unknown truth.

Nine, eight, seven...... As Ling Yu and the four approached, they could even hear the crunch of the bones around them when they were crushed.

A few miles away, but the four of Ling Yu walked for two quarters of an hour before they arrived.

When the four of them rode Wakaki Ha into the open space on the edge of the dead wood, it was as if all the coercion they had been under before had been disintegrated the moment they stepped into the open space. The four people who had lost the oppression of the field finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked ahead.

This was the first time they stood under the dead tree and looked at the ancient tree, the branches of the ancient tree reached straight to the sky, and tens of thousands of dead branches were like the ghost claws of the ancient tree, reaching in all directions. Looking at the ancient tree that reached the sky, Ling Yu secretly sighed, if the ancient tree survived, its lush leaves would be enough to shelter one side.

It's a pity that this ancient tree doesn't know what kind of catastrophe it has experienced, and it has died.

Ling Yu glanced at the three people in ambush and signaled the three of them not to act rashly first. And he himself used the Holy Dragon Crossing Method, jumped down, and stepped near the dead wood.

Ling Yu dispersed all his divine senses from his body, and while cautiously approaching the dead tree, he was vigilant against the danger that could come at any time.

Fortunately, what Ling Yu was worried about did not happen. The terrifying coercion they felt thirty miles away from the dead tree did not spread to the vicinity of the dead tree, or rather, when those coercion spread to the vicinity of the dead tree, it was dissolved by an invisible force.

When it was confirmed that it was safe, Ling Yu nodded to the ambushed three. Seeing Ling Yu's eyes, Ambush, Hei Hei, and Simba jumped off Wakaki at the same time and looked towards the ancient tree.

The dead tree is a hundred feet high, the lines and ravines on the body of the tree are half a foot deep, and the dry bark is like the hands of an old man who has lived for 10,000 years, lifeless but powerful.

The hundred-foot-tall ancient tree turned into three colors, which is very miraculous. The branches on the upper layer are a withered yellow, like fallen leaves in autumn. The middle trunk is inky black, revealing a strange and eerie atmosphere. The roots of the underlying tree are green, and there is a spill of life.

Perhaps it was because the ancient tree was so old that its dragon-like roots crawled out of the ground, clutching the soil near the dead tree and sucking in the nutrients.

The ancient tree is dead, but its root system exudes endless vitality, which makes people wonder. Under the setting sun, the three-colored brilliance of the dead trees flows to each other, the vitality and the silence are constantly intertwined, and the holy and the evil are endless. It gives birth to a feeling of contradiction and harmony at the same time.

Ling Yu and the four of them circled around the dead tree three times, but they didn't find anything unusual about the dead ancient tree, which made the four people who had longing for the dead tree a little unacceptable.

"We went to great lengths to get to the dead tree, but we found nothing, and if we knew that this was the case, the little lion and I would not have gone on an adventure with you. Xiao Hei complained.

After Xiao Hei finished speaking, he looked at Simba, wanting to get Simba's approval. However, when he looked at Simba, he found that Simba's face was solemn, and even a look of fear appeared in his eyes.

Seeing Simba's expression, Xiao Hei unconsciously followed the other party's line of sight to look at the ancient tree. However, when he saw the ancient tree that was thought to be dead, the state of the ancient tree made Xiao Hei jump three feet high. He raised his hand and pointed at the ancient tree, unable to even speak.

Xiao Hei's actions startled Fu Chao and Ling Yu as well, and the two followed Simba and Xiao Hei's gaze towards the dead tree. But they found that the dead trees were as barren and rotten as before.

"Xiao Hei, what are the expressions of you and Simba?" Ling Yu asked puzzled.

"It's, it's hung on it...... Xu, a lot of dead corpses!" Xiao Hei swallowed fiercely and explained to Ling Yu and Fu Chao.

"You're dazzled, aren't you? This ancient tree has been dead for countless years, and it's bare, and it doesn't even have a dead leaf except for dead branches!" Ling Yu glanced at the ancient tree again, and then sneered at Xiao Hei.

Hearing Ling Yu's words, Xiao Hei had no choice but to rub his eyes and look towards the ancient tree again. However, when he looked at the old tree again, he found that there were only dead branches on the old tree, and nothing else. But just now he clearly saw cultivators in mourning clothes hanging on the dead branches, those cultivators were bleeding and tearful, extremely hideous, why did they disappear in the blink of an eye?

"Little Lion, did you see those corpses just now? I really didn't lie!" In desperation, Xiao Hei had no choice but to look at Simba and argue for himself.

"I, I also saw a lot of corpses hanging from the old trees, but in the blink of an eye, they were all gone. But I'm sure what Hei and I just saw wasn't an illusion!" Simba nodded, very sure.

"Xiao Yu, no matter what, this place should not stay for a long time. Since there is nothing to be found here, and this place is not the entrance to the lower realm of the Nine Realms of the Heavenly Dome, I think it is better for us to leave as soon as possible!" Fu Chao looked at Simba and Xiao Hei's faces, and suggested to Ling Yu.

Although Fu Chao and Ling Yu didn't notice anything unusual about the ancient tree, Xiao Hei and Simba didn't look like they were lying. Therefore, this strange place is indeed not suitable for a long stay.

However, although Fu Chao and Ling Yu's ideas were good, their plans were far less rapid than the changes.

When the two of them made up their minds to leave the place, they suddenly felt as if someone was tapping them on the shoulder.

For Ling Yu and Fu Chao, the slap on his shoulder was like a calloused hand greeting him. Moreover, the two of them are face to face with Xiao Hei and Simba, so whose "hand" is on their shoulders?

Just when Ling Yu and Fu Chao looked up at Xiao Hei and Simba, they found that the faces of these two people had become solemn again, and the fear in their eyes was undisguised.

Between the lightning and the fire, Ling Yu and Ambush drew their blades almost at the same time and slashed at the pair of "hands" on their shoulders. And when the divine weapon in the hands of the two hit the target, there was no sound of bones breaking and tendons breaking, but as if they were cut on a gold stone.

Under the splash of sparks, Ling Yu and the others took a step at the same time, turning their heads to look behind them.

When the two turned their heads, they finally saw the so-called "hands" clearly. It turned out that those "hands" turned out to be the branches of an ancient tree that they thought had long since died.

And what really made Ling Yu's heart burst out was not only the branches, but also the changes in the dead trees.
