Chapter 03: Dryads?

Nie Kong couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, he never thought that a tree could grow to such a terrifying level!

Although it was difficult for him to see the whole picture of the giant tree from the position he was standing at the moment, he could also get a general idea of the leopard in his tube, countless thick branches stretched out from the huge trunk, and the branches were overwhelming, boundless, and green filled Nie Kong's sight.

"It's such a tall tree...... Qingyue's mind finally calmed down, and it fell on Nie Kong's shoulder, muttering admiration in her mouth, "Nie Kong, such a big tree doesn't know how many years it has survived, and it must have already possessed spirituality and become a veritable tree spirit." ”

"Tree Spirit?" Nie Kong was stunned.

"That's right. Qingyue had a natural expression, "Otherwise, how could I not feel the breath of this big tree and that vine, grandma, it must have been covered up by the tree spirit." This dryad spirit doesn't know what his strength is, maybe he has already surpassed the heavenly spirit. ”

"Perhaps!"

Nie Kong nodded subconsciously.

It only took more than a thousand years for the Qingyue Phantom Heart Orchid to cultivate its soul to the Heavenly Spirit, and the diameter of the first branch of this giant tree alone is thousands of meters, and the diameter of the main trunk is more than ten thousand meters. Not to mention thousands of years, even ten thousand years are possible. For so many years, it is not surprising that the giant tree has derived spirituality.

Moreover, the terrifying vitality that Nie Kong had felt when he was cultivating on the vines before seemed to be able to confirm Qingyue's statement. After all, if it weren't for the spirituality and the ability to start cultivating, no matter how much a giant tree grew, it would not be able to have such a powerful vitality.

But soon, Nie Kong's face changed slightly: "Qingyue, this giant tree has spirituality, so shouldn't it know our every move clearly?"

"It's hard to say. ”

Qingyue hesitated, "Tree spirits are different from medicine spirits. The body of the herb is very small, and it is relatively easy to cultivate, but the tree spirit, especially the big tree that grows like the one in front of him, must be extremely slow to cultivate, and after having spirituality, it is likely to use the method of sleep to maximize the speed of absorbing spiritual power elements. Once the dryad has fallen into a deep slumber, it is difficult to wake it up from normal movements. ”

After a pause, Qingyue smiled again and said: "Nie Kong, you don't have to worry, although Grandma I don't know what kind of tree this is, but the Tree Spirit's temperament is the most peaceful, even if it really discovers our existence, it won't do anything to us, Grandma, I can guarantee this." ”

"Oh?"

Seeing Qingyue's look of gambling and swearing, Nie Kong smiled unconsciously, and couldn't help but quip, "Qingyue, how do you know that the tree spirit is the most peaceful? Did that Ni Zhaoshi of the Beast Control Sect tell you, or did you see it yourself from the books of that underground labyrinth?"

Qingyue raised her eyebrows, and snorted and said, "No, grandma, I rely on my own feelings." When I came in, I didn't tell me, it made me feel like I was back home, so you can put a hundred hearts, grandma, I can't lie to you. ”

"Well, I'll take your feelings back to you. ”

Nie Kong smiled slightly and returned the way he came. Now that you know that you are in a giant tree, if you continue to follow this branch, the last thing you can see will be smaller and smaller branches, and it is impossible to find a way out, and it is the right way to return to that vine.

Whether to go down the vine or up is a lot of thought.

However, after returning to the root of the branch, Nie Kong had already made a decision, that is, to continue upward. There was nothing on the trunk of this giant tree, and the thick rattan was wrapped around in a circle, maybe it was the passage to the tree that the people in the ruins deliberately left, perhaps, at the peak of the giant tree, there was a way to leave this area, even if there was nothing at the top of the tree, it was not too late to return to the bottom of the giant tree.

Nie Kong continued to perform the "Shifting Flower Shadow", the more he moved forward, the shorter the time it took to walk around the vines, but those branches appeared more and more frequently, often the branches behind had not disappeared from sight, and there were several thick branches in front of him.

Gradually, Nie Kong could already see the leaves of the giant tree, which meant that he was getting closer and closer to the top of the giant tree. Nie Kong lifted his spirits and swallowed another "lark pill". This is Nie Kong's fourth dose of medicine, and if nothing else, this one should be able to survive to the end.

"Whoosh!"

Nie Kong's body was like a meteor, and he galloped again. The branches of the tree kept flying from the line of sight, and Nie Kong circled around the trunk.

Each loop of the vine was in a very suitable position around the trunk, and it would only pass close to the top of the branch, not bypass it near the bottom of the branch, and would not suddenly climb steeply upward. Nie Kong didn't need to dodge any obstacles, but his vigilance didn't disappear, and at such a height, he couldn't be cautious, in case the vines in front of him suddenly disappeared, the end of stepping into the air might be shattered.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, Qingyue shouted crisply. Almost as soon as her voice sounded, Nie Kong's steps had stopped. By this time, the diameter of the trunk has been greatly reduced, estimated to be only a few tens of meters, and the branches have become very dense, and the lush foliage obscures the sky.

Moreover, the rattan under his feet is only more than one meter wide, galloping on it, extremely thrilling, if you change to a guy who is afraid of heights, I am afraid that he will already be frightened and fall down.

However, the reason why Qingyue shouted and Nie Kong stopped was not this, but the rattan suddenly exploded not far in front, as if it had been cut into soft filaments, constantly bending and twisting on the branches, forming a ball with a radius of more than ten meters.

There is an entrance on the ball that is close to the rattan, facing Nie Kong, the green is faint and exudes a strange aura, I don't know what is hidden inside.

Nie Kong hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and walked towards the round ball step by step.

The closer it got to the entrance of the orb, the more intense the dark green blood in its body surged, as if something inside the orb was constantly calling it. The little guy who lived in the Yaochi cave could no longer float, and from time to time he was pressed to the bottom of the hidden cave by the blood waves set off, which was quite embarrassing.

"Ahhh

With a depressed cry, the little guy's tender roots attached to Nie Kong's big point like a sucker, and then the stems and leaves curled up into a ball, which avoided being further affected by the dark green blood.

The little guy turned the little bud and looked from side to side in confusion, as if he didn't understand why his nest was making such a big commotion. After a while, the little one even shrank into the bud, but peeked out a stream of green, and then enjoyed the red liquid beads in the pet backpack.

At this time, Nie Kong, who came to the entrance of the round ball, was already hesitating.

Crossing the entrance may be able to successfully exit the area, but there is also the possibility of encountering unpredictable dangers. Nie Kong was not afraid of life and death, but when he ran the "Yin and Yang Spirit Devouring Technique" in the vines below, the feeling of being about to be assimilated by vitality made Nie Kong feel a trace of fear from the bottom of his heart. Perhaps, as soon as you enter the sphere in front of you, you will be assimilated by this giant tree, and from then on it will become a mass of vitality, and it will never recover.

"Nie Kong, after arriving here, my feeling of returning home has become stronger and stronger, and there should be no danger inside. Qingyue said.

"It's ...... feeling again"

Nie Kong smiled helplessly.

Qingyue's little nose wrinkled, and she said with a grin: "Grandma, my feelings will never be wrong, Nie Kong, you won't be scared, right?"

"Scared?"

Nie Kong's heart jumped, and he was secretly ashamed.

He has lived two lives in vain, and he keeps saying that he is not afraid of death, but since he entered the Yin Ruins, he has been cowering, and he is not even as good as such a little medicine spirit who has never seen anything in the world.

In some ways, the feeling of the medicine spirit is indeed stronger than his own, not to mention, Qingyue's soul power has also reached the heavenly spirit. Even she wasn't afraid, so why should she be afraid? Besides, judging from the reaction of her own bloodline, it was more likely that this ball was an exit. Since this is the case, then take a fight, if you have always been afraid of wolves and tigers, even if you successfully awaken the bloodline, what can you do in the future?

In the blink of an eye, Nie Kong only felt that his mind was refreshed, and the block in his chest suddenly disappeared.

"Qingyue, you're right, I'm really scared. But now...... Even if there is really danger here, anyway, Lao Tzu's life was picked up, and it was a big deal to return it. Let's go!" Nie Kong laughed loudly and strode into the ball.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the ball vibrated violently.

Then, the ball pressed against the side of the giant tree, as if it suddenly burst open, and an unrivaled suction force surged out of the giant tree. In an instant, it had covered Nie Kong's whole body, and before he could make any resistance, Nie Kong and Qingyue, who was holding his clothes, were swept in.

After being involved, Nie Kong experienced the feeling when he jumped into the cliff of ten thousand people during the "Six Halls Competition" on that day, and his body plummeted. It's just that since the choice has been made, no matter what the final outcome is, Nie Kong will face it calmly, so he is not shocked in his heart.

However, the dark green blood in the Yaochi cave was roaring more and more.

"Ahhh

The little guy curled up and attached to the hole also seemed to sense something, and after calling suspiciously, the stems and leaves stretched slightly, and the greenery that absorbed the red liquid beads at the root of the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" was also retracted. As the speed of the landing continued to increase, the little one's confused cry suddenly became a little excited.

"Huh?"

Nie Kong was a little surprised by the little guy's reaction, its call at this time did not contain any thoughts, but only an instinctive excitement. This situation has happened before, is there something around here that can be excited for the little one?

"Boom!"

At this moment, Nie Kong's rapidly descending body suddenly stopped, but there was a sound in the Yaochi Acupoint at the same time, and the dark green blood was actually freed from the shackles of the Yaochi Acupoint, rolling out like a flood of the embankment, and in an instant, it was integrated into the blood of Nie Kong's whole body......
