Chapter 173: The Thunder God Tree
In the narrow mountain passage, Ye Tong leaned over and carefully chiseled the ice, for fear that the force would be too great, causing the ice to shatter and the passage to collapse.
At this moment, Ye Tong's expression suddenly moved, turned his head to look at Dong Xueyan behind him, and asked in a low voice, "Did you hear the sound?"
Dong Xueyan frowned slightly, nodded silently, and said in a low voice: "It's thunder, I heard it two quarters of an hour ago." ”
Ye Tong was puzzled: "In the northern part of the secret realm where we are located, there is no sun and moon, let alone four seasons, and there should be no thunder and rain, but where does this thunder come from?"
Dong Xueyan shook her head and said, "I don't know. ”
Ye Tong was silent for a while, and said slowly: "No matter where the thunder sound came from, since we heard a sound coming, it proves that we will be able to open this passage soon, I only hope that the exit of the passage that penetrates the ice wall of the mountain stream will not be too high from the ground." ”
Dong Xueyan snorted coldly: "You'd better pray, otherwise you'll ......"
"Here we go again!" Ye Tong showed a wry smile on his face, in the past three or four days, he had heard Dong Xueyan's threatening words dozens of times, so the immune function mode had been turned on to the fullest state.
"I'm really going to kill ......," Dong Xueyan's voice raised a few beats.
Ye Tong hurriedly interrupted her words and said with a wry smile: "I know, I said Grandma, I know that you will really kill me, but I also believe that bad luck sometimes has a limit."
Cultivating in the Earthfire Cave, I almost didn't die of heat, and I barely persevered, but the fire dragon suddenly woke up again, and it didn't do anything to me, but its roaring voice almost didn't shock me to death, and when I came to this secret realm, I was teleported to the northern region, and it almost didn't freeze me to death. ”
"It's just cold, but the result is either chased and killed by hordes of ice and snow wolves, or expelled by snow apes, and they fled to it with nine deaths, and they ran into your kind of thing, and they were almost killed by you again. ”
"And now? Now I'm in this valley of ice, and I'm tired of digging through the ice. ”
"I, Ye Tong, have accumulated virtue and done good deeds in my previous life, and I have never done anything wrong in this life, how can I encounter unlucky things?
Ye Tong's face was elongated, and he looked like a bitter melon.
"Poof......" Rao is Dong Xueyan has a cold temperament and has always been unrestrained, but at this time, she was also amused by Ye Tong's words.
The dim passage did not affect Ye Tong's line of sight, and when he saw Dong Xueyan's smiling face, he looked slightly stunned, obviously amazed by this smiling face.
It turned out that this girl was so beautiful, Ye Tong muttered in his heart.
Dong Xueyan was keenly aware of the strangeness in Ye Tong's eyes, and immediately put away that smile, raised her fist and threatened: "What are you looking at? ”
"Ahem......"
Ye Tong coughed dryly, and hurriedly turned around and stopped looking at her, she was very beautiful, but her temper was too short.
The corners of Dong Xueyan's mouth curled, watching Ye Tong continue to dig the ice body, and a smile crept up on her face again.
Half an hour later, when the dagger in Ye Tong's hand pierced the ice, the cold wind outside blew in, whether it was Ye Tong or Dong Xueyan, and at the same time showed a look of surprise.
Got through!
The two glanced at each other in the dim passage, and then Ye Tong carefully dug the hole wider, and when he saw the scene outside, he once again revealed an incredible look.
Tree!
He saw the tree in this icy and snowy world again, and the tree in front of him was different from the trees he had encountered before, it was a hundred meters high, and there were electric lights flowing on the lush golden leaves.
"This, this is the Thunder God Tree?" Dong Xueyan climbed to Ye Tong's side, next to him and looked outside, when she saw the tree clearly, her pupils suddenly contracted, and she exclaimed.
Ye Tong retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at her shocked appearance, and said curiously: "What Thunder God Tree, why haven't I heard of this kind of tree before?"
Dong Xueyan said dumbfoundedly: "In this lowest world, there shouldn't be a Thunder God Tree! it is a ...... that grows in the third layer of the world."
Suddenly, Dong Xueyan's words stopped abruptly, and she had inadvertently revealed her biggest secret.
Ye Tong's body trembled, although Dong Xueyan didn't finish speaking, he instantly realized that the girl next to him definitely knew the world above, and maybe she was still from the world above.
After Dong Xueyan came to her senses, she suddenly turned her head to look at Ye Tong, her eyes were less than ten centimeters away from Ye Tong's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Just now, you didn't hear anything, otherwise I wouldn't mind killing you now." ”
"Yes! I just went deaf. ”
Although Ye Tong was full of curiosity in his heart, he remained silent on the surface and answered without thinking.
Dong Xueyan snorted with satisfaction, looked outside again, her eyes showed a little struggle, suddenly, she noticed that Ye Tong wanted to go out, and immediately grabbed Ye Tong's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Don't rush out, the Thunder God Tree is a divine tree, and often around this kind of divine tree, there are terrifying companion beasts." ”
Ye Tong's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly gave up the idea of going out.
Dong Xueyan looked outside for a long time, then turned around, looked at Ye Tong and asked, "Do you have any healing pills?"
"Yes!" Ye Tong nodded calmly.
Dong Xueyan said: "Give me one, count it as if I borrowed it, and I will buy it and return it to you when I return to the sect." ”
"Good!"
Ye Tong can be sure from Dong Xueyan's words that she has completely given up the idea of killing herself, perhaps after these few days of getting along, the two have already had a little bit of common suffering.
Dong Xueyan got the healing pill, swallowed it directly, and sat down cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, Ye Tong was next to her, and even could feel the temperature on her body, hesitated, he also sat cross-legged, took out a Juyuan pill and took it, recovering the consumed vitality.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the two had been at the entrance of the cave for two days.
In the past two days, they did not jump down the mountain stream, even though the entrance of the cave was only tens of meters high below.
"That's it!"
Dong Xueyan suddenly opened her eyes and said in a low voice.
Ye Tong woke up from his cultivation, he noticed that the vitality in his body had increased a little, and his mood became happier because of this, and he asked, "What's good?"
Dong Xueyan said: "My internal injuries have healed, and now I can burst out with the strength of the Innate Sevenfold. ”
Hearing this, Ye Tong's face suddenly changed slightly.
Dong Xueyan glanced at him, pouted and said, "What are you afraid of?" if I don't kill you, I will spare your life, but if you dare to spread the news of what we encounter here, even if you are in danger of being punished by the sect, I will kill you." ”
"Don't worry!" Ye Tong said solemnly.
Dong Xueyan looked outside for a long time, and finally made sure that there was no associated beast of the Thunder God Tree outside, which made her feel a lot more relieved, and as her figure jumped out of the hole, the long sword was also taken out by her, piercing into the ice wall and falling downward, Ye Tong followed closely behind, slashing the ice wall with a dagger, reducing the speed of falling.
Soon the two of them stepped on the ice of the mountain stream.
Dong Xueyan took a deep breath, a resolute look burst into her eyes, looked at Ye Tong and asked, "Can you do me a favor?" ”
"What's the hurry?" Ye Tong didn't rush to agree, he faintly sensed that Dong Xueyan seemed to be making a decision.
Dong Xueyan said: "I need to collect this Thunder God Tree, if there is a fierce beast attacking on the way, you can help me block it." ”
"What are you kidding?"
Ye Tong showed a stunned look, this Thunder God Tree was a hundred meters high, extremely huge, how could she collect it? And if a fierce beast attacked, how could she be able to stop it with her own little trick?
Dong Xueyan said seriously: "I'm not joking, help or not, you choose." ”
Ye Tong asked, "If a fierce beast that is much stronger than me arrives, I won't be able to help you then!"
Dong Xueyan said: "If there is really a fierce beast that is much stronger than you, you can retreat directly at that time, and leave the rest to me." ”
"Okay!" Ye Tong heard this, and had no choice but to agree, in fact, he also wanted to see, what kind of ability did Dong Xueyan have, can he take away this hundred-meter-tall huge giant tree?
A cold wind blows.
Dong Xueyan's elegant posture rushed towards the Thunder God Tree thousands of kilometers away, her speed was very fast, and in just a dozen breaths, she had already stepped on the tree body and rushed towards it.
Ye Tong could see clearly, as she rushed to a height of forty or fifty meters, as if a flower was flying and a butterfly danced, her hands suddenly bloomed with blood-colored light, the strange handprints pinched, and the red light fluttered in all directions, and in a short period of time, it was scattered like fireflies, and gradually, the entire Thunder God Tree was shrouded in red light.
"Photo ......" Dong Xueyan suddenly retreated away from the tree trunk, her black clothes rustled in the wind, and when she waved her arms, the hundred-meter-high Thor Tree actually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What kind of exercise is this?"
Ye Tong showed a look of disbelief, this kind of strange scene, in other words, he couldn't believe his eyes at all.
"Poof......" Dong Xueyan, who was quietly floating in mid-air, suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood mist, but more blood-colored points of light formed in the blood mist, and glanced towards the shrunken Thunder God Tree again.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the Thunder God Tree had shrunk to a height of two meters, and the ice on which it was rooted had all exploded, but the bursts of thunder coming from the Thunder God Tree had become even more dull and more rapid.
"Ga ......"
"Roaring ......"
A golden eagle with wings spread and feet of more than ten meters roared from the distant sky, and at the end of the mountain stream, a cold snow bear with a height of three or four meters roared and rushed forward, and from the sound they made, you could feel their anger and irritability.
When Dong Xueyan heard this, her face changed suddenly, and as a silver needle appeared in the gap between her fingers out of thin air, she stabbed at the top of her head without hesitation, and then, she opened her mouth again and spewed out a mouthful of blood, spraying directly on the shrunken Thunder God Tree Tree, and suddenly, the Thunder God Tree shrank faster.
"Come in for me!"
Dong Xueyan's voice became sharp and urgent, and at the moment when the silver needle was pulled out of her head again, it shrank to only three inches of the Thunder God Tree, and its whole body exuded a blood-colored halo, which was hidden inside her head.
