Chapter 227: The Fat Man's Outburst

As night fell, two days and one night passed in tense worry. Miao Ying may know that Zhai Qing's heart is not good, so at the end of the day, she did not conflict with him again. After repeated searches without results. Since last night, she and Du Sheng have led the team to participate in the increase of the Holy Illusion Divine Tree to leave, and at Lin Jie's request, they also took away more than ten young people from the Elemental Illusion Control Academy.

Towards the end of the night, a bonfire was lit. Zhai Qing looked up and saw more than a dozen elite soldiers climbing down from the sacred tree from a distance, and his face was indescribably heavy.

"My lord, since yesterday at noon, I have climbed a distance of thousands of feet, and I have focused on checking the location of the entrance to the heart of the sacred tree, and I have not found anyone. A burly man briefly met with the other soldiers, then turned around and walked in front of Zhai Qing and the others, bowed respectfully to an old man with Huafa on the right, and reported in a condensed voice.

"It's hard work, take everyone down and have a good rest. ”

Nodding slightly, watching the soldiers line up in a neat line towards the barracks, the old man Huafa turned his head and glanced at Zhai Qing's gloomy expression, shook his head and said: "Brother Zhai, these men are already the best scouts stationed in the stronghold of the Divine Tree, and they have searched nearly half the height of the Divine Tree for two days and one night, and they have not found any figures. The young man you are talking about has indeed entered the sacred tree. There is less bad luck!"

"I don't believe it! The mouse obviously sensed the intimacy passed on to him by the Divine Tree when the Holy Illusion Pill appeared, and it stands to reason that the Divine Tree would never harm him. Besides, the Holy Illusion Divine Tree has existed for thousands of years, and there has never been a situation where it has actively devoured people for no reason, how could a good living person disappear like this?"

For two days, the fat man stayed by the sacred tree almost sleeplessly. The man who climbed the tree to search for him went there four times, and each time he came down, he was the first to rush forward and carefully question everyone before he gave up.

Again and again, the disappointment made the fat man suffer under the worry. After the words fell, he looked at Zhai Qing and the others with a smile in his eyes, expecting to get some answers, but there was silence.

"Senior Mao, as far as you know, has the Holy Illusion Divine Tree ever failed to take the initiative to pull people into the tree during your tenure of station?" Because the situation was too abrupt and she was full of curiosity about Zhang Hao, Lin Jie stayed, and at this time she took two steps forward, rubbed the fat man's head, and asked the old man Xiang Huafa.

The old man of Huafa is named Mao Jie, and he is a master personally designated by the royal family to represent the Tianshui Empire stationed in the Holy Illusion Divine Tree. has been guarding the sacred tree for more than 60 years, and is a friend of Zhai Qing.

"In my tenure, I have never heard of such a strange thing happening. Moreover, according to the royal family's records about the inheritance of the Holy Illusion Divine Tree, she had devoured many people before, including more than a dozen divine masters, but all of those people entered the hole in the heart of the sacred tree seven hundred zhang away from the trunk of the sacred tree, and never reappeared. For example, yesterday, the Holy Phantom Pill rained down light and entangled it in the body, but it was unheard of. Mao Jie thought about it carefully and said in an affirmative tone.

"I don't care, the mouse must be inside the Divine Tree now, I'm going to go in and find him!" Hearing this answer, the fat man's cheeks twitched, he broke away from Lin Jie's arm, and strode towards the Holy Illusion Divine Tree.

"Chubby, don't be reckless, ...... first"

Zhai Qing waved his hand and threw out a golden rope composed of strength to wrap around the fat man's waist, and before the words completely fell, his eyes were condensed, and he said, "Everyone retreat!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa"

As soon as he retreated more than ten zhang away and stood still, the expression on Zhai Qing's face instantly appeared in surprise, and just around the root of the tree where the fat man was standing before, a large withered branch and leaf suddenly fell. Then, under the reflection of several bonfires around them, several people saw that a crack appeared in vain on the thick trunk of the Holy Illusion Divine Tree, making a crisp explosion sound.

"Crackle Crackle"

Immediately after, the finger-sized cracks on the trunk of the tree bloomed like flowers after a brief silence, diffusing countless dense cracks, spreading along the trunk upwards at a rapid speed.

Seeing the withered bark splashing out in all directions as it exploded, Mao Jie waved his hand and grabbed a piece of bark the size of a palm on the ground, and when he observed it, he changed color: "How can this be?"

Stationed around the Divine Tree for decades, Mao Jie has a deep understanding of the Holy Illusion Divine Tree, and he doesn't understand at all why this still green Divine Tree is showing signs of withering after thousands of years of vitality, even in the bitter cold of winter!

Grabbing the dry bark in Mao Jie's hand that did not contain the slightest vitality, and observing for a long time, Zhai Qing gasped.

"Not the slightest bit of life!"

With a heavy face, he took the bark handed over by Zhai Qing's trembling palm, and after sensing it, Lin Jie's face changed, and he looked up at everything that happened in front of him in disbelief, and said, "Is the divine tree that has existed for ten thousand years about to wither?"

"Boom"

An earth-shattering sound rose into the sky, and the huge branches and leaves of the Holy Illusion God Tree continued to fall, and the sky was full of dust, and the remnants of the leaves that covered the sky and closed their eyes flew with it.

It has been tilted by showers but not crippled, has survived thousands of years without extinguishing, and has experienced many attacks without the slightest flaw. The three masters of the Summoning Saint Master level, even if their minds have been cultivated to an extremely high level, but in the face of the miracle of the entire Zhengyuan Dalu, which has been revered by the world for thousands of years, and is known as the Divine Tree, collapsed in front of their eyes, all they could do was to be stunned on the spot.

"Buzz"

A violent tremor came from the ground, Zhai Qing and the others hurriedly retreated seven or eight zhang away, and then the four of them looked at each other when they saw that the huge figure of the Divine Tree seemed to be sinking towards the ground a little bit, and they all felt the incomprehensible surprise and deep sense of powerlessness in each other's eyes.

Behind them, many soldiers had already walked out of the tents, and when they looked up, their eyes almost simultaneously flashed with disbelief.

Around the camp, feeling the huge movement of the sacred tree, a volley of suspended figures flashed in the barracks of the Hengfeng Empire and the Shanlan Empire from time to time, and when these people vaguely saw the scene happening under their feet, their faces were shocked and they stood on the spot.

Through the heavy dust, watching the huge drive of the sacred tree quickly sink towards the ground, the fat man's eyes were fixed, and he wanted to rush into the dust with his footsteps, but he was stopped by Zhai Qing on the side.

Turning his head to look at Zhai Qing, the fat man's face was faintly hideous, and he shouted: "Let go of me! The mouse is still in the sacred tree, if I go back like this, how can I explain to Zhao Niang? How can I explain to Sister Yurou? I have to go to him! I promised him that I will be a brother in this life, how can I ignore him?"

"Let go of me!"

Shaking his hand three times in a row but never breaking free, the fat man roared, his eyes were suddenly covered by a green light, and from time to time there was a strange green light, and his whole face gradually turned dark green, which was very weird.

Zhai Qing's pupils shrank, and before he could react, he saw an astonishing aura suddenly rise from the fat man's body, and in the vigorous surge of green power, a monster as high as seven or eight feet was condensed behind him at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The monster appeared to have a dense canopy above its head, extending into thick foliage. However, the thick trunk of the tree is like a thousand-touch octopus in the deep sea of a desert island in the open sea, full of dense and constantly wriggling tentacles, which looks very hideous and terrifying.

"What is this?" was affected by the strength that permeated the fat man's body, and an almost suffocating breath of death came, Mao Jie's face was shocked, and he just subconsciously took two steps back, but his whole body was frozen like a sieve, and he couldn't move his proportions anymore.

Lin Jie swallowed his throat deeply, raised his eyes to stare at the monster that suddenly appeared behind the fat man, and his body also couldn't move. The aura of law emanating from the monster's body was nothing more than the strength of a first-time eightfold phantom master, but the heavy pressure that descended from its body was like a thousand feet of mountain, which made people's hearts flood with heartfelt fear, and even she temporarily lost control of her body.

"I order you now!

A burst of shouts came out, and the monster behind the fat man raised his head to the sky and let out a sharp roar, and a thick soft tentacle on the monster behind him turned into an arrow like a stretched bowstring, and quickly stabbed towards Zhai Qing's cheek, who couldn't move at all at the moment.

"Fat brother, what are you doing?"

The tentacles were only a palm away from Zhai Qing's face, and a familiar and somewhat startled word came from behind. The fat man shuddered. The green light in his eyes quickly dissipated, and his face instantly returned to normal. At the same time, the looming monster behind him collapsed into the void, as if it had never appeared.

Due to the sinking of the Holy Illusion Divine Tree, the scene where the fat man erupted without warning was just covered by the dust that covered the sky, but the energy fluctuations that erupted when the monster appeared just now attracted the attention of many masters, but these people did not see what was going on.

Turning his head and sweeping, he saw the familiar figure standing not far away, and the corners of the fat man's eyes were sour. With a wave of his hand, he successfully broke free of Zhai Qing's palm, rushed over with an arrow step, hugged Zhang Hao tightly with both hands, and choked up: "Stinky boy, where have you been? Don't you know that the fat brother has been worried outside?"

"Forehead ......"

Suddenly hugged by the fat man, Zhang Hao stiffened, his face showed a strong unnaturalness, and he just wanted to struggle, but he felt a tremor that did not seem to be contrived from the other party's body. Then his eyes gradually softened, he reached out and pressed on the fat man's back and patted it lightly twice, and said, "I'm sorry fat brother, I didn't find a way out in the sacred tree for a while, so I delayed the time!

"! Lao Tzu didn't cry, it's just that the dust is too big, and it's just spilled into his eyes!" pushed Zhang Hao away, the fat man sniffed a few times, looked at the kind face in front of him, and when his heart was loosened, he threw a punch and smashed it on Zhang Hao's heart, grinning.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao gently swung his fist back to the fat man, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and then walked in the direction of Zhai Qing and the others.

When he got closer, he saw Zhai Qing, Mao Jie, and Lin Jie staring at the fat man with the corners of their eyes, and they couldn't hide a little horror in their eyes. Zhang Hao and the fat man glanced at each other, and a trace of confusion rose on their faces.

"Dean, what's wrong with you?"

The big face leaned a little closer, but found that Zhai Qing hurriedly took two steps back like a ghost, which made the fat man's expression stunned.

"Chubby, what the hell was that monster behind you?"

Looking at the fat man's ignorant look, Zhai Qing's heart was full of horror, and he couldn't even care about Zhang Hao's coming out of the divine tree for the time being. He was absolutely sure that if it weren't for Zuihou's sudden Zhang Hao's voice, in his defenselessness, the stabbing tentacles would definitely have the ability to kill him directly.

"What kind of monster? Where is the monster?" Turning his head and sweeping around, the fat man's big mouth grinned, stopped Zhang Hao's shoulder, and said, "The dean said that Xiao Hao is a monster, right? My brother came out of the sacred tree, and he was unharmed. It can indeed be called a monster!"

Staring at the fat fat face in front of him with a smug look, he didn't seem to know what had happened to him just now, and even had the kung fu to throw a wink, Zhai Qing Juhua tightened, and immediately almost subconsciously slapped the fat man's head, and roared: "You almost killed the old man just now, do you know?"

Seeing Zhai Qing slap down on the head again, the fat man screamed, covered his face and took two breaths, and hurriedly dodged out, shouting: "I didn't expect the dean to summon the holy master to make such a funny joke!

"I'm sad and urging! This makes the old man reasonable!"

Looking at the fat man who ran away with a cloud of dust, Zhai Qing's face was stunned, and he looked up to the sky and sighed......
