Chapter 35: Mo Without a Trace
"Alive?"
In the room, Feng Ruo, who had finally successfully carved the phantom formation onto the sword, finally had time to remember the wood demon that was said to be "alive".
To be honest, for this 'wood demon' that could only make the faces of Senior Brother Nayun change greatly, Feng Ruo really didn't pay much attention to it, the reason was very simple, the so-called poison of dead wood didn't work on him at all.
However, no matter how Feng Ruo looked at it, he couldn't connect this skeleton that emitted a faint purple light, the size of a leopard, but with two extra bone wings on its back, with the legendary wood demon that made the immortal cultivation world smell the color.
"Are you alive? You're here to bite me?"
Feng Ruo grabbed the front leg bone of the skeleton with one hand and shook it up and down, no matter how you look at it, this is a dead thing, if there is anything peculiar, it is that this skeleton will not fall apart at all.
After thinking about it carefully for a while, Feng Ruo finally put a trace of mana into the bone, but this method was his last means of judgment, because if this bone was really a wood demon, then there must be a large number of innate wood demons that had been refined!
However, Feng Ruo's mana did not encounter any obstacles, and there was no existence of the Innate Wood Evil in this skeleton at all! And for the sake of caution, he even increased the output of mana, but there was still not a trace of the Innate Wood Evil!
"Hmph! I'll just say it! Even if this thing used to be a wood demon, it must be dead and can't die anymore!"
After getting the answer, Feng Ruo took back the mana casually, but at this time, he realized that the mana he had just output was actually half less!
"Huh?"
This discovery surprised Feng Ruo, and when he looked at the skeleton at this time, it had shrunk a few points at a very fast speed, and the purple light on it seemed to be even stronger!
"Wood Demon!"
Without thinking about it, Feng Ruo kicked the skeleton out with a direct kick, and then pulled out the phantom sword and prepared for defense, but what puzzled him was that the skeleton was still the same as before, there was no reaction, he waited for a long time, and he didn't see this skeleton really come back to life!
"Strange? What's going on? Could it be that because he has the ability to fuse the innate wood demon in his body, this guy doesn't dare to attack?"
Thinking like this, Feng Ruo brought the skeleton back again, and after slamming it the ground a few times, he was sure that it was still a dead thing!
"No! The problem should still be related to the Congenital Wood Shah!" Looking at the shrunken bones, a bold thought suddenly rose in Feng Ruo's mind, that is, if he kept sending mana to it, which was the so-called Innate Mu Sha, then what would become of this skeleton after it shrank to a certain extent?
After thinking about it for a while, Feng Ruo finally felt that he should try it, because although this skeleton is a wood demon, there is no innate wood demon in it, so he can input mana into it, no matter what happens in the end, but because the mana is controlled by himself, there shouldn't be too much of a problem!
After deciding, Feng Ruo immediately continued to convey mana to the bone, and as he expected, the bone really began to shrink gradually, when the mana in his body was almost consumed by about half, the bone had shrunk to the size of a child's fist, and at this time, he found that the mana he conveyed was no longer absorbed!
"Wow, this little thing looks fun!"
Feng Ruo's eyes are shining now, although this skeleton still retains its original appearance, but because it has shrunk too much, it looks very exquisite, and that faint purple color also makes it feel more and more mysterious.
But just as Feng Ruo was looking closely, he was suddenly surprised to find that this little thing suddenly moved, and then the two small bone wings flicked slightly, and a "whoosh" sound flew around the room, and the speed was comparable to the sword technique, and only a faint purple could be seen!
This situation made Feng Ruo completely stunned, and when he reacted, the entire room had been hit by this little thing and there were holes everywhere, if it weren't for the positive and negative nine-star formations outside, God knows where this thing would go!
"Damn! this thing really is a wood demon!"
Don't dare to slack off, Feng Ruo swung the Phantom Sword and rushed forward, no matter what, this little wood demon must be killed, otherwise, if he runs out, it is estimated that the entire Zhentian Sect will be boiling, and he will not be able to eat and walk around at that time!
But what made Feng Ruo depressed was that this little wooden demon seemed to have a very high level of intelligence, and he didn't give him a chance to get close at all, just "swishing" around the room, making Feng Ruo dizzy!
"Stop! I will kill you if you believe it or not!"
In a hurry, Feng Ruo couldn't help but say angrily, but what he didn't expect was that the little wood demon actually stopped circling, but he tried his best to distance himself from him, shrinking in the corner of the room, and the purple light on his body flashed, as if he was very pitiful.
"Huh, you're very obedient!"
Feng Ruo was overjoyed in his heart, but this situation proved his previous guess, and at the same time, he also vaguely understood the key to the bloodthirsty demon dragon's control of the wood demon!
"Hey, little one, come here, there's something to eat!"
Feng Ruo deliberately slowed down his tone and greeted with a very gentle smile, but when the little wooden demon heard his words, he retreated, and immediately made him angry!
"You come over to me! I'll give me dozens of strokes! Otherwise, I'll bear the consequences! Ten ...... Nine ......"
But this threat didn't seem to have any effect, and the little wood demon continued to "swish" around the room in a panic, just in the blink of an eye, there were hundreds more holes in the whole room!
"His uncle, it's really damning!"
Seeing that his originally extremely neat, spacious and comfortable house was about to collapse, the depression in Feng Ruo's heart can be imagined, this is the most comfortable house he has lived in in the past few years!
There was no way, Feng Ruo had no choice but to take out the wood spirit crystal, and sure enough, the little wood demon suddenly stopped, but what was depressing was that it still shrank pitifully in a corner, as if Feng Ruo was some kind of fierce god!
"Damn! Is this still a wood demon that has made countless cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation Realm smell it? Who will believe it!"
Feng Ruo sighed as he put away the Phantom Sword, there was no way, because this little wood demon looked really timid.
He guessed really right, when he put away the Phantom Sword, the little wood demon finally couldn't hold it back, and came towards Feng Ruo, but it kept flying and stopping, like that and a little mouse out of the hole to forage for food really had a fight.
And in order to catch this little wood demon, Feng Ruo also tried his best to make his face full of smiles, and then handed the wood spirit crystal out.
It took a long time for the little wood demon to come to Feng Ruo's side, but what made Feng Ruo feel strange was that this little guy didn't seem to be very interested in the wood spirit crystal, and after looking around, he actually jumped directly onto the back of his hand!
At this moment, Feng Ruo really wanted to catch this little wood demon with a lightning speed with his backhand, but he finally held back, because through the attempt just now, he had already understood how terrifying the speed and reaction ability of this little thing was, and trying to catch it was almost equivalent to dreaming!
So Feng Ruo simply kept his current posture, he was very curious in his heart, he didn't know if this little wood demon would attack him, or was it something completely different from the wood demon that he had inadvertently made? Because according to what Senior Brother Nayun said, those truly terrifying wood demons didn't seem to be so small!
At this time, the little wood demon actually turned around on the back of Feng Ruo's hand, and from time to time he gently scratched with a small purple claw, which made Feng Ruo itch a lot!
And taking advantage of this opportunity, Feng Ruo finally took a clear look at the whole picture of this little wood demon, he didn't feel anything special when this little wood demon had not shrunk before, but now he found out that this little wood demon actually made him feel a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
After thinking about it carefully for a long time, Feng Ruo's mind suddenly appeared in the huge skeleton he saw in the underground cave of the Dead Wood Sea, this little wood demon is actually very similar to the huge bone, the same four claws, the same pair of bone wings, the same narrow body, even the little head of this little wood demon seems to be very similar to the head of the huge bone, except for the faint purple light on the little wood demon's body, this is almost a miniature version of the huge bone!
"Tsk, that's weird, or is it just a coincidence?"
Feng Ruo thought to himself, but he couldn't get any of the essentials, but he was sure that even if this little wood demon was really the kind of terrifying wood demon in the immortal cultivation world, there should be something special! Because the skeleton in the underground cave of the Dead Wood Sea was very unusual, he remembered that at that time, the silver-armored heavenly spider was almost frightened in front of that skeleton, and it didn't recover until it was a few hundred zhang away!
In addition, that cave was also extremely strange, the scattered bones inside were all very rare high-level alien beast bones, he didn't think that they were all trophies of a powerful spirit beast!
"It seems that if you have the chance, you still have to go to the underground cave of the Dead Wood Sea again, not only to absorb the almost boundless innate wood shasers, but also to see what is strange about that skeleton!"
Thinking like this, Feng Ruo found that the little wood demon had never intended to attack him, and looking at it, it seemed to be a little tired, waved the pair of small bone wings, and then under Feng Ruo's gaze, it turned into a purple light and disappeared on his wrist!
This time it startled Feng Ruo, and he hurriedly looked at it, but saw that there was a lilac mark on his wrist at some point, this mark was only about the size of a fingernail, but there was a lifelike shadow on it, but it was the little wood demon.
"Uh! What's going on?"
Feng Ruo couldn't help but be shocked, this kind of strange situation was really the first time he had encountered it, if it weren't for the fact that his body at the moment was completely devoid of any abnormalities, he was afraid that he would even have to dig this mark off!
But even so, Feng Ruo didn't dare to be careless, and while trying to operate his mana, he paid attention to the changes in the mark, until he tossed for most of the hour, and finally determined one thing, that is, the existence of this mark would not have any impact on his cultivation and battle.
But there is another point that makes Feng Ruo vaguely uneasy, because it stands to reason that after the little wood demon enters his body, he must feel anything, but no matter how he searches, he has never been able to find the existence of this little wood demon.
In the end, he had to find an excuse for himself that was not an excuse, that is, since this little wood demon was generated by his own mana, of course he couldn't detect it when he returned to his body.
And just when Feng Ruo was still worrying about this little wood demon, he suddenly realized that the positive and negative nine-star formation he had arranged outside the house was actually being violently attacked!
"Damn! Those four bastards have their heads stuffed with grass, and they dare to attack blatantly!"
Feng Ruo, who was depressed for the little wood demon, was suddenly furious, and immediately pinched the spell in his hand, first casting the shield wall spell, and then rushed out!
"Ten zhang green silk!
"Ten zhang green silk!
Before Feng Ruo's figure landed, he heard two low shouts outside one after another, and his two legs were restrained by two powerful forces!
"Oops! These four bastards have learned to behave!"
Feng Ruo was shocked in his heart, and while hurriedly running the shield wall spell to stabilize the lower plate, he quickly pulled out the phantom sword and slashed at the green silk that bound his two legs, but at the same time, a red sword light flew from a distance, this red sword light was not only extremely fast, but also extremely stable, and it could be seen that the other party should be a cultivator who was very skilled in swordsmanship!
And more importantly, looking at the coercion of this red sword light, it is actually a five-grade flying sword!
As a last resort, Feng Ruo had no choice but to give up cutting off the two green silks that were constantly tightly binding him, transporting his mana, holding the phantom sword and blocking the sword light, but this gave the two sneak attackers who cast ten zhang green silk a chance, just a few breaths, Feng Ruo was tied like a zongzi from the waist down!
It can be said that at this moment he has completely lost the first move!
"Stop!"
At this time, a somewhat cold voice suddenly sounded from a distance, and at the same time as this voice sounded, the red sword light that had been fighting with Feng Ruo immediately retracted, there is no doubt that the other party should be a group of people!
At this time, Feng Ruo's heart also regained his composure, so he was not in a hurry to break the ten-zhang green silk on his body, but looked at the voice, but when he saw the appearance of the speaker, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, because this person's appearance was actually very similar to Mo Yan who was killed by himself!
"Hehe! Feng Ruo, I've heard about you for a long time, but the way we meet doesn't seem to be very friendly, but it doesn't matter! I'm here today, I just want to tell you one thing, give me the exit from the assessment of the Kenshin Academy, and then go as far as I can! Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce, my surname is inexplicable!"
