Chapter 33: The Demon Tree Absorbs Martial Arts
The waterfall is tirelessly in close contact with the underground spring, and even though the two teenagers can no longer see its outline clearly, the loud sound of the water splashing against the spring has not disappeared.
Darkness reigned again, and the depths of the canyon, where no sunlight was shining, were no longer filled with tall trees.
Occasionally, tenacious fern vegetation covers the boulders, mottled and slippery.
Ma Yu involuntarily grabbed Han Xiangtian's hand: "Xiangtian, it's too slippery here, let's be more careful." ”
Han Xiangtian used the heavy halberd as a crutch, and walked cautiously behind, he observed that the terrain here had obviously begun to appear sloped, and if he was not careful, he would slip.
What kind of monster is the lord, hiding in the depths of the canyon.
"Do you feel any abnormal fluctuations in your martial aura?" The deeper he went, the more uneasy Ma Yu became, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Han Xiangtian had already raised his spiritual power to the extreme, but he didn't notice any martial qi fluctuations at all.
There seems to be no living life in this canyon except for the low vegetation and rocks.
That's right, there weren't any birds, animals, not even a single mosquito!
In other words, this secluded valley is quiet and somewhat infiltrating, like stepping into a hunter's forbidden area, making it feel like there are countless pairs of eyes watching every move from all sides.
After about half an hour, there was finally a movement in the air around him.
It's a whirlwind that comes from nowhere, and where does the gust of wind come from in this deep valley blocked by the dangerous wall in both directions?
The sound of the waterfall behind them had disappeared, and the two of them stopped, a little inexplicably nervous.
Ma Yu seemed to remember something, and asked, "Xiang Tian, since we entered this Void Realm, do you feel anything abnormal?" ”
Han Xiangtian scratched his head, a little puzzled: "Except for the Locust Bird, there has not been a single bird or beast in this primeval jungle, and the secluded spring just now is like a stagnant water, and there is not even a single fish." ”
The fertile grasslands, the deep jungles, this excellent habitat that should be adapted to the survival of all things, is actually rare for any creature.
There is only a group of timid tree monsters, and an uncertain locust bird, which is really weird.
"Goo...... Goo. Finally, in the silence, the familiar chirping of the acacia bird appeared not far ahead.
Only this time, the magpie bird screamed sadly, with three points of sadness in its voice, and seven points of despair!
"It's not good, the locust bird is in danger!" Ma Yu exclaimed.
As soon as the words fell, the whirlwind suddenly turned sharply, and there was a trace of the body odor of the locust bird in the air, presumably because of it.
The two of them no longer hesitated, ran forward, and suddenly felt the earth tremble, and they fell to the ground unsteadily.
Just as they were about to get up, the wind was even more urgent, and it was difficult for the two of them to get up under the pressure of the rapid air current.
Ma Yu lay on the ground, barely looking up, but saw a breathtaking scene.
There was a blue light in front of him, which was dim but also illuminated the depths of the canyon.
The tree monsters that disappeared before actually gathered here, densely packed, there were hundreds.
They seem to be attracted by a mysterious power, and the blue light in front of them squirms one after another, piling up several tall towers, which is magnificent.
In the foreground, on a sudden red earth, a dead tree that was not tall suddenly appeared.
Compared to the giant towering ancient trees in the outside world, this dead tree is only about two meters high, and it is no more than five meters high, no matter how you look at it in this void realm, it can only be regarded as an extremely short small tree.
The only difference is that the crumbling branches of the dead tree, which may break at any moment, are burning with a strange blue fire.
The flame was faint, but it was the only light in the depths of the canyon.
The blue light was confusing, making Ma Yu suddenly think of his mother, remembering that the sky was fluttering with blue snow, and his mother was hiding behind a mist and beckoning to him.
The wind in front of Ma Yu suddenly turned smaller, and he struggled to get up, and he wanted to walk forward.
Han Xiangtian just wanted to hold him, but he was suppressed by the more rapid whirlwind and couldn't raise his head.
"Damn, it's the Locust Bird!" Han Xiangtian sensed that something was wrong, and just gathered his martial energy to forcibly get up, but found that Ma Yu had already taken more than a dozen steps forward.
"Brother Yu, come back!" No matter how Han Xiangtian called, Ma Yu didn't look back as if he was enchanted.
And the dryads in front of him also relied on the vines that were glued together to wriggle like dead trees.
"Goo-goo...... Cuckoo. The locust bird was still singing, and the giant tower built by the tree monsters was the first to arrive beside the dead tree.
Countless vines were already wrapped around the dead tree, as if they were about to merge with it.
The dead tree, which was languishing and dying, suddenly cracked open from the center, and a bloody mouth suddenly flashed.
The group of tree monsters seemed to suddenly wake up and tried to flee in a panic.
But he was bound by a huge blue letter in the mouth of the blood basin, and in an instant, all the tree monsters could no longer move as if they had been struck by lightning.
A strange scene unfolded before my eyes, the already plump bodies of the dryads began to dry up at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if the essence had been extracted.
In just a few breaths, hundreds of tree monsters were sucked dry, leaving a ground of shriveled bark!
And the dead wood seemed to usher in a new life, the blue light was great, and the almost broken branches even grew small flowers with blue petals and white stamens.
Han Xiangtian was already stunned, this is a dying dead tree, it is clearly a demon tree that specializes in absorbing martial arts!
The broken patterns in my mind were quickly pieced together, the tree monster, the locust bird, the blue light demon tree, all of them were traps!
Those timid as rat tree monsters are just bait for the Blue Light Tree, and this demon tree is the domain master of the Void Realm!
It has not appeared for a long time, but because it cannot move its position, it relies on the locust bird to recruit various creatures for it to nourish.
"Oops, Brother Yu has been bewitched, and he is still moving towards the demon tree." Han Xiangtian was so anxious that the muscles of his whole body burst out, and the doors were already open.
The whirlwind created by the Acacia Bird could no longer be stopped, and Han Xiangtian hurriedly caught up with him, reaching out to pull Ma Yu back.
Ma Yu was still three or four meters away from the demon tree, and Han Xiangtian was sure to save him from escaping.
"Quack ......" The demon tree actually let out a low hoarse hiss, as if it was insulting Han Xiangtian for getting in the way.
The huge Lan Xinzi suddenly shot out and wrapped around Ma Yu's waist.
Han Xiangtian pounced into the air and scolded angrily: "Let him go!" ”
The heavy halberd in his hand was long enough, and with all his strength, he swept obliquely, and actually cut off the blue letter in the mouth of the demon tree.
Ma Yu lost his soul and stood in place, without any intention of fleeing.
In his eyes, everything around him was like a dream, and the strange blue light on the demon tree was the navigation that guided him to find his mother.
The demon tree was hit hard, its huge mouth opened, and a cloud of black gas suddenly erupted.
Han Xiangtian couldn't dodge it, and was hit head-on, and his eyes suddenly stinged, and he was dazzled for a while, and it was difficult to breathe.
There was a sudden pain in his back, but it was the locust bird that flew down, and its claws firmly poked into its back to capture him.
Han Xiangtian gritted his teeth and opened his eyes, but saw that Ma Yu was also stabbed in the back by another claw, and both of them became the prey of the Acacia Bird.
The severe pain finally made Ma Yu come to his senses, and he was puzzled: "Big Bird, what are you doing here?" Let me go! ”
"Woohoo...... Woohoo. The locust bird ignored it, flew straight to the location of the giant mouth of the demon tree, raised its claws and threw the two of them in.
