Chapter 1015: Blood Black Beast
Blood banyan is a peculiar banyan tree, after the branches and rhizomes are cut off, the inside is bright red like blood.
But like such a big blood banyan tree, Shi Feiyu had never seen it.
The few blood banyan trees in front of him were dozens of zhang high, and hundreds of vines hung down in the dense canopy.
The vines were all gray and white, and it looked like it was some years old.
This is only the marginal area, and as far as the eye can see, in the depths of the swamp, there is an even greater existence of the Blood Banyan.
What surprised Shi Feiyu the most was the blood banyan in the center of the swamp, which was not only as tall as 10,000 feet, but also staggered and twisted with its trunk and rhizomes, as strong as a mountain.
Such a huge blood banyan tree is simply rare in the world, and I am afraid that it will take at least thousands of years to grow before it can take shape.
And after he stepped into this swamp, countless vines seemed to suddenly come to life, and wrapped around him like a spiritual snake.
Not only the vines hanging from the canopy, but even in the swamp under his feet, there were roots and whiskers, like a giant python rolling, quickly approaching him.
In a short period of time, the huge swamp that was nearly a hundred miles wide seemed to come to life.
Behind him, Liao Shaoyuan had already chased forward with a cold aura, making Shi Feiyu's face change again.
Looking back at the young man who was rapidly approaching, he saw that he gritted his teeth, suddenly took out the Heavenly Absolute Divine Aegis, and rushed straight to the depths of the swamp.
The Heavenly Absolute Aegis was in front of him, turning into a huge existence, tearing apart the trunks of the trees and vines that blocked the way one after another.
As the canopy and vines shredded, the swamp suddenly became boiling.
And among the torn trees, there are bright red things sprayed, making the scene like a bloody storm, extremely spectacular.
Liao Shaoyuan, who had just caught up with him, looked at the young man who was rampage, stirring up the bloody storm in the swamp, and his face became a little solemn.
What frightened him even more was that the breath in the depths of the swamp had been touched.
With Shi Feiyu's intrusion, that aura was also recovering rapidly.
"Crazy, just crazy. ”
Looking at the young man who went straight to the depths without hesitation, Liao Shaoyuan finally gritted his teeth and didn't chase anymore.
But he didn't give up just yet, but stood outside the swamp and watched coldly, waiting for Shi Feiyu to be crushed by the countless tree vines.
Rumble!
After waiting like this, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the swamp.
The moment the roar sounded, Liao Shaoyuan felt that the source qi of heaven and earth within hundreds of miles was quickly converging towards this swamp.
At that convergence, a terrifying storm of source qi suddenly appeared, raging in the depths of the swamp.
The moment the source qi storm formed, he heard a fierce roar in the canopy of a huge tree in the center.
At the same time as the roar sounded, Liao Shaoyuan saw that the blood banyan trees in the entire swamp were all alive, twisting their rock-solid trunks, blocking all of Shi Feiyu's retreats.
At the moment when the retreat was blocked, countless roots, stems, trees and vines burst away from all directions.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Feiyu, who broke into the swamp, was surrounded by water.
Such a stormy attack, even Liao Shaoyuan himself, was difficult to dodge.
Countless vines, rhizomes and other objects are entangled with each other, and soon form an indestructible net, enveloping it.
As the big net descended, Shi Feiyu suddenly had no way to avoid it and was pressed into the swamp.
The vines intertwined with each other, and in a moment, they formed a huge cocoon that entwined them layer by layer.
Under such entanglement, even a person who has entered the middle stage of the Holy Realm is afraid that he will definitely die.
Seeing this scene, Liao Shaoyuan exhaled deeply and shook his head.
He didn't want to push Shi Feiyu into a corner, he just wanted to catch up and teach him some lessons.
However, the other party did not tie his hands and was about to go to the depths of the swamp to die.
Now wrapped in the cocoon formed by the countless vines, even Liao Shaoyuan didn't dare to come to the rescue.
As he left, the cocoon formed by the entanglement was dragged by hundreds of python-like vines and slid quickly through the swamp, straight to the huge blood banyan shaped like a mountain in the center.
While hurriedly retreating, Liao Shaoyuan glanced back, and at this moment, some of the blood banyan trees that were blocking his vision moved away.
Through the cracks in the trunks of the trees, he could faintly see a flash of red light in the huge mountain-like canopy in the center of the swamp.
But he couldn't see what it was because of the distance.
The sun rises and the moon change, and it is two days in the blink of an eye.
Two days later, the huge swamp that was hundreds of miles wide had already returned to its former calm.
The students who hunted demon beasts in this barren mountain range also returned to the Demon Slayer Holy Land one after another, intending to complete the second assessment this morning.
When handing over the task, some people are happy and some are worried.
Of the more than 500 students, half of them were eliminated in the first assessment.
The remaining half was eliminated in the second assessment.
By the time the students came back one after another and handed in the tasks, there were less than twenty people left.
Zhuang Kai, Wen Zi'an, Guo Yichen and others, after getting the spell made by Shi Feiyu, also barely passed the second assessment.
And what they hunted was a beginner-level demon beast.
As for those people on the combat power list, most of them have taken out a Xuan-level mid-level demon source, and Mo Qing and Liao Shaoyuan are even more outrageous, and even took out a Xuan-level high-level.
However, Mo Qing was obviously a step ahead, and found that Liao Shaoyuan also had a Xuan-level high-level demon source in his hand, and his eyes rolled slightly, and he took out a Xuan-level high-level demon source.
This demon source did not come from the nine-headed dragon lion, it seems that Mo Qing later found a high-level demon beast and hunted it.
When this demon source appeared, it immediately caused an uproar in the entire academy.
Many elders had personally verified it and believed that she had killed her.
Mo Qing also became a well-deserved first place, although it was only the second assessment, but this kind of ranking was also extremely happy for her.
After handing over the task and overpowering Liao Shaoyuan, Mo Qing began to inquire about Shi Feiyu's whereabouts.
When she learned that Shi Feiyu hadn't come back until now, there was a trace of doubt on her face.
Zhuang Kai, Wen Zi'an and others were also standing at the gate of the academy full of worry, waiting for the figure to appear.
Students who pass the second assessment have a three-day break.
This period also became the last chance for those students who failed to return on time.
If Shi Feiyu does not show up within three days, then even if he comes back alive, he will be deemed to have given up the assessment on his own.
While they were waiting for Shi Feiyu to appear, the latter was in even greater trouble.
Two days ago, after being entwined by the rhizomes of countless trees and vines, Shi Feiyu immediately felt that the thing that was wrapped around his body had a strange devouring power.
This ability quickly devoured the source power in his body.
As the source power was swallowed by it, an extreme weakness came, causing Shi Feiyu's consciousness to gradually become blurred.
In a drowsy state, even he didn't know how long he had been asleep, but he felt that the voice he had heard in the Demon King's tomb kept echoing in his mind.
The darkness is boundless, and the demon heart is awakening......
The voice was only halfway, and there seemed to be something important behind it, but Shi Feiyu only remembered so much, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hear it clearly.
This state lasted for about two days before he was awakened by a roar of thunder.
The roar came from inside the Nine Yin Divine Fire Furnace, and the Tiangang Saint Crystal Beast seemed to be angered by its kind, and was furious.
When Shi Feiyu woke up, he already found himself in a dim space, and his body was entangled by many vines, unable to move a bit.
The biggest headache for him is that once there is a source force formed in his body, it will be immediately absorbed by the tree vine.
Fortunately, the source core in the dantian was not damaged because of this, otherwise the cultivation would have plummeted.
After struggling for a while, and finding that he couldn't get rid of the entanglement of those vines, Shi Feiyu gradually calmed down.
If you continue to struggle, the huge energy contained in the source core will probably be swallowed by those vines.
The huge blood banyan that grows in the center of the swamp is obviously using this method to obtain the intrinsic power of the prey.
In this way, in a few days, it will become a nutrient for its growth.
Thinking of this, Shi Feiyu's heart wrinkled slightly, and his majestic spirit burst out.
But what surprised him was that the explosion of divine soul power could not cause the slightest damage to the tree vines.
The source power could not be used, and the power of the divine soul had no effect, and in the face of countless entanglements of trees and vines, Shi Feiyu suddenly felt powerless, and became helpless for a while.
Although the power of the divine soul cannot help the vine, it can easily penetrate it and perceive everything in the outside world.
Shi Feiyu tried to spread the majestic spirit, and soon, the scene outside was reflected in his mind.
When he saw it, he couldn't help but take a sharp breath in his heart.
The position he was in at the moment was inside the canopy of the huge blood banyan tree shaped like a mountain.
And in the canopy, in addition to the cocoon that entwined him, there were many other beings of the same kind.
After careful induction, Shi Feiyu found that inside those tree cocoons, some were unlucky people like him, and some were demon beasts.
But now, whether it is a human or a demon beast, they have been dead for a long time, and the death is extremely ugly, the bones of the whole body are crushed by the tree vines, and the corpses are twisted in a strange posture.
What surprised him even more were the corpses.
I don't know how long the corpses have been trapped here, although they are not decomposed, they have long since withered, but the corners of each one's mouth are slightly upturned, as if they are smiling.
But that smile is a little weird no matter how you look at it.
The majestic spirit swept away, and within the canopy of half of the tree, there were tens of thousands of corpses of humans or beasts, which was enough to make people's scalps shine.
However, when the power of the divine soul spread to the other side of the canopy, a new discovery was made.
In the center of the canopy, there was actually a blood-red demon beast hidden.
Like a sloth, the monster crawled there quietly, as if it was sleeping.
And its size is surprisingly large, with a length of hundreds of zhang and a height of dozens of battles.
If it weren't for the fact that this blood banyan was big enough, I am afraid it would not have been able to allow it to hide.
But what really surprised Shi Feiyu was not this, but the abdomen of this blood-colored demon beast, which actually had dozens of limbs.
The sharp claws on the front of the limbs, shaped like falcons, are deeply embedded in the trunk of the tree.
And under the claws, there is a majestic source force that is quietly surging.
The power of the divine soul swept away from his body, and he quickly retracted it, and Shi Feiyu's heart couldn't help but rise with a sense of solemnity.
Because at this moment, he has already recognized this demon beast.
Bloody Beast ......
