Chapter Seventy-Three: The Second Coming
"Not here yet?" Feng Lei carried one of his team members through the forest quickly, his body was already soaked with sweat, and there was a feeling of dizziness in his head, and his physical strength was already at the limit.
Xiao Lin rushed to the front to lead the way for everyone, they have been chased by a group of ghosts for a long time, although they briefly threw off the group of ghosts in the middle, but in the end it was these ghosts who caught up, and now behind them a group of ghosts waving their claws and roaring loudly chased them, and the distance was constantly shortening.
"It's almost there. Xiao Lin replied, in fact, he was a little bottomless in his heart, after all, he and Linglong also broke into the messy stone hill by mistake, and there was only a general direction in his heart, and there was no clear route plan, just following the feeling in his heart and running for his life.
"These brutes are endless. Situ Yun fell at the back, constantly using Fei Yu to hit the ghost from a distance, thus slightly hindering the other party's pace of chasing, but as time went by, the ghost has gradually become familiar with Situ Yun's attack methods and knows the method of coping, and now the effect that Fei Yu can play is getting smaller and smaller.
"I said, is the ghost really a ghost?" Feng Lei asked with a strange brain circuit while running for his life, at this time he still had the heart to pay attention to this kind of problem, which made everyone a little helpless.
The one-eyed who was blocking the advance of the powerful ghosts with Situ Yun sneered: "There are no ghosts in this world, this is nothing more than a manifestation of human arrogance, calling some creatures that I don't like to look at as ghosts." ”
"I see. Feng Lei nodded matter-of-factly, "That makes sense." ”
"Maybe in the eyes of these ghosts, our appearance is also extremely ugly, and they regard us as ghosts. Situ Yun said lightly.
"I can't argue with that. Feng Lei said in a daze.
In fact, different species look at and understand the world with their own eyes, and different biological characteristics, different growth environments, and different life experiences have long been different in their perception of the world.
Humans may think they are the masters of this world, but in the eyes of these ghosts, they fall prey.
"You still have the heart to discuss this kind of problem, and if you have the strength, hurry up. Xiao Lin said angrily, he had to admire the courage of these people, this kind of critical moment of escaping, even made a long speech about different races, this is not out of danger.
"Watch ahead!" Linglong kept following Xiao Lin's side, her eyes constantly swept around, and suddenly said a warning.
"Cut, there is even one in front. Xiao Lin took a sip, "How many ghosts are there, won't the whole forest be dispatched?"
"If that's the case, we're probably more likely to be more than lucky. Feng Lei said a little pessimistically, they can't do it one-on-one, and at this time, the number of opponents is even more overwhelming, so that people can't see a glimmer of hope.
"Xiao Lin, left!" Linglong reminded.
Xiao Lin turned his head to look at it, and was overjoyed: "It's here!
From a distance, he saw a towering ancient tree standing not far away, its dense branches and leaves opening up to the sky like a huge palm, faintly purple light flowing, emitting a flickering light.
"Isn't that the Devil's Tree?" One-Eye said in shock, "Boy, you're driving us to our deaths!" He was a little angry, he thought Xiao Lin had some good ideas, but it turned out that he had broken into a forbidden land, what was the difference between this and being devoured by a powerful ghost.
"I left the rocky hill before, and the Devil Tree didn't make any movement, and it won't react to the weaker ones. Xiao Lin explained to One-Eyed as he quickened his pace, "And the powerful ghosts are different, according to the level of the ability, the strength of these ghosts far exceeds ours, and they may be able to attract the attention of the Devil Tree and let it destroy them." ”
"It doesn't matter who will kill whom. Feng Lei asked with some concern, although he had also heard of the name of the Devil Tree, and many powerful and powerful people had died under this tree, but now they were facing one of the three major calamities, after all, the powerful ghosts, and they had an absolute advantage in numbers, and it was unknown who killed the deer.
"At this time, I can only gamble. Situ Yun shot out another flying feather, and he didn't stop attacking along the way, even though he was a rare change-type ability, he was already so tired that he was about to foam at the mouth, "Dead horses should be live horse doctors." ”
"Those ghosts are surrounding!" Linglong shouted, only to see the dense ghosts around her let out a low roar and quickly approached.
"It's just this time. Xiao Lin's heart was cold, he had obviously seen the Devil's Tree, and the hope of salvation was ahead, but he couldn't reach it, which was the most desperate.
"Let's fight for it. Situ Yun said, a snow-white mist poured out of his body again, a crisp cry sounded, and the sword feathers in the sky shot towards the fierce ghost in front of him.
"You take care of the front, and leave the back to me!" shouted One-Eye, he roared, his fists kept blasting, and the violent fist wind blasted out an ocean-like wave of qi towards the fierce ghosts that kept surging behind, and in an instant there was a loud "bang" sound.
The fist wind fell one by one, and one by one the fierce ghosts were knocked to the ground, but after a while, they stood up and rushed forward with a roar, and there was no damage at all.
Xiao Lin looked at the group of powerful ghosts surging towards him like black waves in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "There's no way, I'm desperate." ”
Immediately after, a pitch-black flame jumped out of the long sword in his hand, and the long-term escape had consumed a lot of his physical strength, and at this time, urging the black flame would undoubtedly cause a huge burden on the body, but now that his life was in danger, he couldn't take care of it so much.
The corner of Situ Yun's eyes swept over the black flame on Xiao Lin's long sword, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he said in his heart: "Here, let me have a good look at it this time." ”
Xiao Lin felt Situ Yun's gaze from behind, and there was a pitch-black flame beating in his eyes, thinking that hiding his strength at this time would only send him to a dead end, so he could only bite the bullet.
"I'm not skilled enough, but I can only give it a try. Xiao Lin sighed in his heart, his eyes quickly became stern, exuding a cold light, and he whispered in his heart: "One life, three thousand Yan." ”
The long sword in his hand drew a mysterious arc in mid-air, and the pitch-black flames turned into a black butterfly circling and flying in mid-air, and the scorching heat began to invade all directions.
Su He's Three Thousand Snows is because he holds the Blue Frost Sword that is in charge of ice and snow, and Xiao Lin's variant Three Thousand Yan is because his elemental ability is flame.
The black butterflies fluttering in the sky flapped their wings and flashed, forming two black tornadoes that surged towards the group of ghosts in front of them with scorching temperatures.
As the tornado advanced, sporadic flames fell on the ghost's body, and suddenly a burst of black smoke rose, and the ghost let out a painful roar from his mouth, and the skin on his body began to burn and fester.
"What kind of flame is this?" Wind Thunder's eyes widened, they had been entangled with the ghosts for so long, and they had never caused substantial damage to these ghosts, at most they could only force them back, unable to cause any real damage.
Unexpectedly, the black flame cast by Xiao Lin really dealt a blow to the ghost, which undoubtedly injected a dose of strength into everyone's hearts.
Situ Yun's eyes flickered as he stared at the black tornado sweeping in the air in front of him, the expression on his face was cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"It's not like this time, let's go!" Xiao Lin coughed violently and urged everyone.
Although the ghosts were injured by the black flames, they were also enraged, and they rushed over one by one with a loud roar, their eyes lit up with a dark green light, and they all rushed towards Xiao Lin, wanting to tear this person to pieces.
"Sure enough, they all had their eyes on me. Xiao Lin's face was ugly.
"Boy, you're a real mess. A joking voice sounded in Xiao Lin's mind.
"Devil Tree?!" Xiao Lin was surprised and delighted, the other party felt his presence, and the matter was estimated to be easy to handle, "Why is there a reaction now? I'm dying, don't you save it?"
Xiao Lin was very dissatisfied with the inaction of the Devil Tree, which also said that he had followed the Shura Gate at the beginning, but as a result, he had such a cold attitude towards the new owner of the Shura Gate.
"I don't carry this pot. The Devil Tree retorted, "With so many things walking around outside my house every day, if you hadn't used the power of the Shura Sect to alarm me, I wouldn't have eaten enough to have nothing to do, and I paid attention to what was arguing outside every day." ”
Xiao Lin was speechless for a while, and there was nothing wrong with what the other party said, but he didn't bother to care about this kind of nossy thing.
"Then you should do me a favor now. Xiao Lin urged the devil tree vigorously in his mind.
"I know, I know, but only this time, next time you come to me, I don't care, the owner of the door needs to face all kinds of difficulties and challenges by himself. The Devil's Tree taught earnestly.
"Hurry up. Xiao Lin was anxious, when is this, his life is almost gone, and he still has the heart to teach him, and it depends on the situation to educate people.
"It's coming. The Devil Tree smiled, "It's been a long time since I've fought with these ghosts, and it's just time to move my muscles." ”
As soon as the Devil Tree finished speaking, a dazzling purple light suddenly rushed into the sky, turning into purple points of light, which fell quickly from the sky like raindrops, pouring down on each ghost.
Suddenly, the terrible screams spread throughout the forest, and the purple light on the ghost's body continued to spread and erode, only to see that the ghost's body began to dissolve, gradually turning into a pool of gray, green and purple stagnant water, and a living ghost disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"This?" Xiao Lin was shocked and took a few steps back, although he knew that the Devil Tree would not hurt him, but if he rubbed it a little, his fate would be the same as that of a powerful ghost, turning into a pool of blood.
The group of ghosts was shocked by the purple light of the devil tree, and one by one showed a frightened expression on their faces, and roared a few times, which soon receded like a tidal wave and disappeared into the shadows in the blink of an eye.
"This is leaving?" Feng Lei said stunned, as if in a dream, the powerful ghosts that had made them helpless were scared away by a few purple lights.
"The Devil's Tree is really a devil. One-eyed couldn't help but sigh.
"Let's go inside. Xiao Lin greeted.
"Go in, are you the devil, if you touch a little purple light, you're done. Feng Lei shook his head vigorously, thinking that Xiao Lin was simply talking nonsense, joking who dared to enter that forbidden land, Situ Yun's face turned pale, thinking that Xiao Lin was talking nonsense.
"If you don't come in, I'll go in, and if you run into a ghost again in a while, you can figure it out yourself. Xiao Lin didn't force it, and walked towards the rocky hill with Linglong.
Everyone's faces were cloudy, and finally Feng Lei gritted his teeth: "Master, I will believe you once, if you dare to harm me, I will not let you go." After saying that, he followed with his teammates.
Situ Yun and One-Eye glanced at each other, and sighed helplessly: "Let's go." ”
One-eyed bared his teeth and grinned: "Today's children really have guts, and they are not afraid of heaven and earth." Since Xiao Lin and these children dare to go in, what reason does he have not dare, after speaking, he followed Xiao Lin and a few people into the Ranshi Gang.
Not long after everyone walked into the rocky hill, a figure with a cloak appeared from not far away, two sharp eyes looked at the gloomy giant tree, sneered a few times in their mouths, and the figure slowly disappeared again.
"If you're lucky, there's still a lot of time, so let's have fun. ”
