Hou Tsuto is in the bamboo forest under the volcano, watching the mangosteen blossoms.

In this month, a very small number of bamboos have died after flowering, and this is only the beginning, the next two months are the time when a large number of annatto bamboos will die, and it is also the time when new bamboo breaks through the soil, because of planting, life alternation will occur in large numbers during this time period.

There is no movement in the crater, only the eruption of smoke that is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, indicating the activity of this volcano, but Hou Yu does not feel any signs of human manipulation, it may not be, but it is also possible that his realm is too low.

More and more annatto began to die, and the flowering was the last and only bloom in their lives.

What Hou Yu felt was the withering of this kind of life, just as he felt the changes of the four seasons when he was in the upper realm, the four seasons, the alternation of life and death, are part of nature.

Originally, according to his plan, he paid more attention to the second half of the alternation of life, and broke the bamboo to be reborn, but a month has passed in a flash, and Mrs. Zhu has not come up yet.

Looking at the five Takeshima monks who had been found, Hou Yu sighed,

"Wait here, and I will go down to find out what is true, and do not come down until you have heard from me."

Fengwei Zhu insisted, "I should go down." ”

Hou Yu was unceremoniously, "Is it useful for you to go down?" It's just that the master sings and the apprentice follows······ You can't persuade Madame. ”

Fengwei Zhu was speechless, this is a little ugly, but it is a fact, these days they have become accustomed to the style of this sword cultivator, there is no malice, but they speak too directly.

The little fairy was very careful, "If Senior Brother doesn't come up, can't we just keep waiting?" ”

"The volcano is an active volcano, which means that no one can go too deep, and it will not be too difficult to transmit information; It's more likely that the people below are reluctant to get the message out, rather than not being able to get the word out.

Madame Bamboo has said that she will not allow you to go down, because she is your master, but I am not her apprentice. ”

A few people came to the crater, and Hou Yu felt the temperature here, which was still within the range he could bear.

"It's still a month, I won't come up after a month, what you do depends on your heart."

Without waiting for everyone to answer, he jumped into the crater, and the person was already slowly falling; In the crater, the environment is even worse than he imagined, but after staying here for a month, he has already come in a few times, and he has a preliminary judgment of such an environment, and the reason why he dares to come in alone is of course with a certain certainty.

The most dangerous direct threat in the crater is the temperature, and the phenomenon of meta-magnetic interference with mana that is becoming more and more obvious as it descends deeper and deeper.

Theoretically, when the monk uses mana to form a barrier around the body, or uses targeted magic weapons, he can effectively isolate the influence of heat, and the depth of the legal power and the ability to transform the five elements determine the depth and time of the monk's dive.

However, the further down they go, the more mixed the various forces beneath the earth's crust, especially the existence of the power of the Yuan Magnetism, which will greatly affect the operation of the monk's Dharma power, which makes it impossible for the monk to reach the deepest position they can theoretically reach.

The power of Yuan Magnetism is ubiquitous underground, but most of the places are weak and do not affect anything, but places like Blue Island are exceptional; In an environment like an active volcano, the further down the elemental magnetic force is, the greater the impact, but such an effect is not a concern for him.

That's why he'd rather go alone than go with him.

He can protect himself, but he may not be able to protect his companions.

As it descends, the temperature gets higher and higher, the smoke particles become thicker and thicker, and the other five senses of the six senses have long since failed, leaving only the divine consciousness barely usable, but the distance of exploration is also shrinking.

The position where the Jindan seniors set up the formation at the beginning may not be anything to him, but it is very much to the monks of the Three Realms of Tongtian, and Mrs. Zhu has always refused to pass on the method of coming in to the disciples, and I don't know why she is considering it?

These five disciples, in private, must have sneaked into the crater in the past month, and Hou Yu knew that it was just that if they didn't break it, their strength was not enough, and they didn't go deep enough, so they could only return in vain.

As the depth of the descent became deeper and deeper, he also felt the pressure, and the mana in his body was transported, and the geomagnetic element force was used to balance the Fagang shield around his body and maintain the necessary temperature for the human body.

has been reduced to fifty zhang, he estimates that his limit is around 100 zhang, this is his purpose, no matter how deep he is, he will not take the risk, it is not worth it.

The scope of divine sense exploration has been compressed to within a dozen feet, and as it goes down more and more, the scope is still shrinking.

When he approached the ground and almost reached the safety limit, he finally saw a touch of red, which was slowly surging magma, and at the same time, there was a powerful formation restraining force.

That's right, it was the most efficient for Jindan Shangxiu to put the magic circle here, and it was much easier to suppress the magma and not erupt than to wait for the eruption to reach the crater and then close it.

There was much less smoke and dust here, and his eyes were barely opened, and then he saw Mrs. Zhu, sitting at a node in the magic circle, silently exercising.

Sensing his arrival too, Mrs. Zhu slowly opened her eyes and looked directly at him, with an expressionless face,

"You shouldn't be here."

"But I'm already here, and if you want me to go, there's got to be a reasonable reason?"

Mrs. Zhu was silent, but Hou Yu didn't let her go, "I've always wondered, why do you, as the lord of Bamboo Island, appear half-hearted and secretive in defending Bamboo Island?"

This is not the attitude of a defender of his homeland, and you seem to be acquiescing to what you always acquiesce to pirates? ”

Hou Yu showed no mercy, "You chose to enter the volcano to close the circle, this is not the right time!" But I don't know what your purpose is?

It wasn't until I met Yu Daoguang that I knew that it was simply a piece of bamboo, was it bamboo essence or something else? But what I know for sure is that you must have something to do with this bamboo spirit.

Bamboo Island is also a pirate, because Yu Daoguang is the bamboo essence you cultivated; The pirate is yours too, because as the master, you certainly have the right to dominate it. ”

Mrs. Zhu slowly spoke, "I have kept a secret for more than a hundred years, and none of my disciples suspect it, but I can't escape the eyes of an outsider······"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Hou Yu's mouth, "No, you didn't hide it from them, it's just that they didn't dare to say it because of their respect for the master; That's why they let me down, because they were afraid that they wouldn't dare to face it. ”

Mrs. Zhu was silent again, but Hou Yu hadn't finished speaking,

"But I still have too many questions, why would your bamboo essence go against you? What is the reason that you are hiding it from the disciples who have been with you for hundreds of years? Why do you ignore the bamboo essence that you have cultivated for a hundred years and let it die?

When I see you now, I realize that my previous guess may be wrong? ”
