There is dependence, and the heart is not panicked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking for Li Qingxuan and in case he couldn't rush for time, the appearance of those people and wild beasts just now showed a picture of harmonious coexistence that he had never imagined.
Coupled with the information conveyed by the black stick in his hand, he was full of curiosity about this place.
The walls of the cave are also made up of sand, which slopes downward.
Lizhi sat on the sand and slid all the way down.
The cave was very dark, and there was no light, but the flames on the black sticks could illuminate a range of four or five meters around.
Except that sand is sand.
Just as he was about to reach the bottom, a dark shadow burst into the light range and swooped down from the right side of the force.
There was no sound.
If it is in the dark, the average person will not be able to see its movements clearly.
Even if he is not in the dark, without Mo Huiyang's ability to detect a certain range, he may not be able to detect it.
These beings seem to be ghosts in the dark.
At the moment when the black shadow approached, Li Zhi had already received Mo Huiyang's warning, and flipped over from the sand road, and the burning black stick circled out several circles, just approaching the place where the black shadow hit.
Crackling.
The flame is their nemesis, and it burns instantly.
At the same time as the black shadow was burned, Lizhi had already reached the bottom of the cave.
Under the light of the fire, dense black creatures came into view, and this was only within the range of the firelight.
When they saw him come down, they all threw themselves at him.
Li Zhi waved the black stick, and the aura of Huoying did not dare to be cut off for a moment, and the flames were pushed to the extreme as much as possible, swinging into a piece to protect the body.
The first few rushed to the front immediately burned, turning into torches in the form of humans or beasts.
The cave was brightened by the fire, and the distant scene could be seen faintly, and in the distance, something seemed to be a large tree root.
These people and beasts are standing around the roots of the great tree, three layers inside and three layers outside.
Seeing that his companions were on fire, those who stood still began to move.
Their goal no longer seems to be to support them, but to pounce on their fellow firefighters.
One after the other.
One after the other were lit.
Soon, the flames spread more and more, and the range became larger and larger.
"Moths throw fire ......," Mo Huiyang said in a daze.
Lizhi was also stunned.
It's weird.
These people were originally attacking him, but now they flew towards the place where it was on fire, turning into piles of black ashes.
"Are these things crazy?" said Lizhi in his heart as he couldn't figure out why.
Judging by what I've come across before, they're all intelligent, but they don't make a sound.
But now it seems that where is wisdom in this, it is simply looking for death.
There were endless doubts in Lizhi's heart, and even the flow of Huoying's breath stopped, and the flames attached to the black stick gradually extinguished.
But the cave became brighter and brighter as more and more people and beasts were ignited.
"They're going to destroy themselves, young man...... They have suffered from life and destruction. A voice rang out, full of compassion.
"It's the root of the big tree!" Mo Huiyang reminded at the right time.
At this time, the flames had spread to the edge of the tree, and the fierce fire illuminated the dark place, and Li Zhi could see the originally vague roots of the tree.
The roots of the tree were also pitch black, as if they had been burned by fire.
But strangely, on its trunk, there is a human face, which looks like an old man.
The eyebrows of the face are actually two leaves.
In the light, it is a little yellowish.
Li Zhi grabbed the black stick tightly and vigilantly aimed at the big tree: "A tree can actually talk!"
"I'm not an ordinary tree, although I don't know why you entered the Divine Wood Space, and I was recognized by the Cangmu Scepter. The voice rose again, and the lips of the human face at the root of the tree opened and closed.
"This is called the Divine Wood Space?Cangmu Scepter?" Li Zhi subconsciously looked at the black stick in his hand.
It doesn't mean that.
"Don't doubt that the Cangmu Scepter is an artifact that the master once commanded the world, representing the common people and justice, I am the spirit of the Scepter, how can I mistake my own body. Seeing the disapproving look on Lizhi's face, Dashu said slowly.
"Old Mo, do you know what the Spirit of the Scepter is?" asked Li Zhi in his heart.
"Just like Huo Ying's relationship with me, I can call it the Spirit of Huo Ying, but since this big tree is the Spirit of the Cangmu Scepter, why is it in this place? It's a bit weird......" Mo Huiyang replied, his tone a little puzzled.
"The words of this old tree root smell of compassion, what should have happened, let me ask. Li Zhi answered, and then asked the old tree root, "Why are you here? What are these black beasts and people?"
"All this is only because of the big mistake I made two hundred years ago!" the big tree raised his eyebrows together, and said with regret: "At that time, the master fought with the Desolate Beast King, I wanted to help him and attack without permission, but I didn't want to be burned by him with divine fire, and then, a powerful destructive force was generated, which filled the entire Divine Wood space, causing the originally vibrant world to turn into a desert, and the humans and beasts in it were all turned into charcoal, and I was deeply guilty." ”
Big tree's words reminded him of the image that came to his mind when he first got the stick.
The short staff engraved with the mystical pattern should be what he called the Cangmu Scepter, but it is too different from the stick he is holding in his hand.
If it weren't for the words of this big tree, it would not have been possible to connect these two things together.
Just when the thoughts came to him, the old tree root's expression became gloomy, and he continued: "I hate the big mistake I made at that time, and I don't want to leave here with my master, in order to dissolve the destructive power of this world, I left the body and attached to the spatial origin. I guard the origin of space, and the power of destruction is too heavy. These creatures destroyed by the fire are reborn. ”
"Even the dead can be resurrected, what kind of power is this?" Li Zhi was extremely surprised, and his heart was turbulent.
Growing up, he had heard that people cannot be resurrected after death.
However, in this place, the words of the strange old tree roots have broken the consistent perception.
"Is your thinking right or not, the Divine Wood Space is a small world created with one of the master's three origin divine powers, and unlike the Divine Power Space, the huge life force can be endless. After the forces of destruction were suppressed by me, the forces of life brought them back to life. It's just that these creatures are no longer the humans and beasts of the past, most of them have no desires and strife, but no longer desire for life, and your appearance is not a relief for them. The big tree sighed, and the taste of compassion was even heavier.
But when he said this, a trace of black gas flashed in his cloudy eyes.
The old tree root's body was black, plus the orange red of the firelight, so this scene was not detected by Lizhi.
However, it was Mo Huiyang's keen soul power, and he felt a trace of fluctuation.
But he couldn't say what this fluctuation meant.
What he said makes a lot of sense, think about it, if the body is destroyed, it is indeed better to be trapped in this place for hundreds of years. Mo Huiyang sighed, the words of the old tree root reminded him of his own situation, how could it be different.
Maybe the fluctuation of the soul power, the old tree root is just because he has been imprisoned for too long, and the emotions are generated.
"It's true, if I can't be free, I'll go crazy for a long time. Li Zhi suddenly felt that the practice of these people and the desolate beast moths to fight the fire was indeed very reasonable.
When the two were talking, most of the people and beasts in the cave were ignited by the flames, and only a few of them were far away.
But the flames did not reach the tree, and at a distance of about a meter from it, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible force.
"The Cangmu Scepter is made of fragrant mulberry wood from the endless fire in the south, it is indestructible, it is fragrant when it encounters fire, it is very beneficial to soul cultivation, it seems that your current realm is still very low, and when you break through the realm of gods one day, the scepter can help you dispel demonic thoughts and break through easily. It's just that back then, I fought against the Divine Fire, which caused great damage to the Scepter itself. The old tree's expression turned into a very warm smile, and the eyebrows formed by the two leaves shook slightly, and he said to Lizhi: "It is a great fate for you and I to meet here." Young man, come here, I will help you restore the scepter to its original state, and the power can also be greatly improved. ”
It can help me break through the realm of gods!
This sentence suddenly exploded in Lizhi's heart, and he couldn't help but look at the fragrant black stick in his hand.
"The fragrance on this Cangmu Scepter is indeed of great benefit to the soul, although I don't know what conditions are required to break through the realm of gods, but it must have something to do with the soul, maybe it is really like what the old tree root said, it will be a big reliance on you at that time." Mo Huiyang confirmed excitedly.
When Li Zhi first got the Cangmu Scepter, the fragrance that came out made him feel shocked, and he immediately knew that it had a powerful soothing effect on the power of the soul.
Although the strength is still far from the realm of the gods, with such a treasure, it helps him clear his heart and mind.
When the time comes, it will definitely be much easier than ordinary people.
You must know that it is very difficult to break through a realm, and you have not even been able to break through in the early stage of the Qi Xuan Realm.
The difficulty of breaking through to the god realm is a hundred times that of the qi realm.
A large number of Qi Xuan Realm masters may not be able to become a god realm in their entire lives.
The words of the old tree roots have an incomparable attraction to any cultivator.
After the shock of Li Zhi, there was no joy on his face.
He knows very well that there is good and bad in everything, and if you want to reach the sky in one step, you have to pay a huge price.
"What am I going to do?" asked Lizhi with a calm mind.
"When you come to me, you just need to touch the Cangmu Scepter to my body, it's very simple. The old tree's eyebrows trembled, and he said with a pleasant face, as if his words carried a trace of bewitching power.
Li Zhi involuntarily took a step forward.
But immediately, an alertness arose in him, and this alertness had no reason to come.
Let his feet that he had just moved, stop.
The old tree root stopped again when he saw Lizhi's steps, and his expression stiffened slightly, but he recovered immediately.
"Lizhi, be careful, although this old tree root doesn't feel bad, but looking at his expression, it seems that there is something to hide. Mo Huiyang immediately reminded him.
He was proficient in psychology, and although the old tree roots only changed slightly, it made him feel uneasy.
"I also felt a little uneasy, but I can't say why, this old root seemed to know what I needed very well, probably because he poked me in the soft underbelly, so he didn't feel very comfortable. Li Zhi responded in his heart, but many thoughts appeared in his mind.
Since he was a child, he was influenced by his father Li Tianming, so that when he did something, he would involuntarily consider it.
Even if it's a big thing, it's not too exciting for him.
Because joy is sorrowful.
Although the old tree root gave him a very compassionate feeling, and he was also shown everywhere to be related to him and want to help him, this long-standing habit still made him not forget his form.
"What's the matter, don't you trust me?" said the old tree root, his voice softer and more charitable: "I have a lot of sin, and being able to meet someone who is destined to help him grow is to accumulate great merits, and when I disappear in smoke, I can also have a good reincarnation." ”
The words of the old tree root fell on the ears of Li Zhi, who had just raised a trace of vigilance, and suddenly there was a feeling that made him ashamed of himself.
People think about themselves everywhere, and even give up their freedom for the sake of these humans and wild beasts, and are imprisoned in the roots of old trees, and they still don't trust it.
If it weren't for the fact that the Jinji Realm could control his qi and blood well, Li Zhi would have doubted that his face would have turned red.
His footsteps shifted again, and he walked towards the old roots.
Seeing that Li Zhixiang dispelled his worries, the old tree's muddy and dim eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wait!" Mo Huiyang saw it clearly this time, and immediately shouted.
