Chapter 181: The Tree King
Tianxing shook his head and stared at the back of the vines motionlessly, "Last time we were able to go in to get honey because of the special torches provided by Master Zhu, and we had to rely on Senior Brother Jiang to lure away all the strange spirit bees, and Senior Brother and I were able to collect honey smoothly, but this time it was different, we didn't understand the characteristics of these strange spirit bees, although there was not a single bee in it, but if we rushed in and collected half of the honey, and the strange spirit bees came back, then it would be a disaster." ”
But Yinxue still drooled and reluctantly said, "Master, can't we really go and pick a little? Just a little, I'm very fast, and we'll come out after picking." ”
Tianxing is also interested in moving, not to mention these honeys, the most important thing is the treasure under the honey pool, that is the treasure that really makes her heart covet.
But the baby's position is too tight, if you want to get royal jelly, you have to waste a lot of effort, and the time spent is not short, if you fail to succeed once, but provoke the spirit bee, it is a headache.
So if you don't make a move, you will be hit.
She comforted Yinxue and said, "Let's not be in a hurry first, the thing is there, will it fly away, my strength is too weak now, if I face the Qiling Bee head-on, I am not sure." ”
Yinxue looked at Tianxing aggrievedly, "Then when can we eat it?" ”
Tianxing glanced around, saw this towering tree, the crown of the tree was like an umbrella, and it was all green, and said, "This is a good place, we can hide here and observe it for a while, and then we can do it when we find out its habits." ”
Yin Xue was helpless, so she had to nod and put away her reluctant gaze.
Tianxing leaned against the trunk of the tree, looked around, and found that the trees here were forested, growing very regularly, some large and some small, and the small saplings snuggled next to the big trees, and the big trees sheltered the small trees from the wind and rain.
Tianxing's heart softened inexplicably, and she slid down along the trunk of the tree a little tiredly.
Silver Snow also jumped below, sitting cross-legged at the feet of Tianxing with an unknown weed in her mouth.
I don't know if Tianxing has entered a zone where there are no demon beasts, from the time she went ashore to the moment before, all of them were fighting with demon beasts.
At the beginning, she saw that those huge and hideous monsters didn't even have time to be afraid, so she instinctively threw out her sword, and on the battlefield, either you die or I die.
Most of these demon beasts are first-order and second-order low-order demon beasts, and few third-order demon beasts appear, like the demon beast Neidan absorbed by Yinxue before, only a few third-order demon beasts will have it in their bodies.
Her eyes were gradually covered with a layer of blood mist, and she didn't have time to change her qi before she entered the next battle.
In the battle, she became more and more proficient in the use of the world-destroying sword technique, and at the same time, the chaotic qi in her body continued to replenish her strength, otherwise, how could she fight like a machine.
But since coming to this forest and encountering the familiar vine waterfall, she has also had a moment of relaxation, at least there are no demon beasts to stop her.
She enjoyed such a rare quiet time.
Suddenly, the boss with Tianxing's pupils glared, and jumped up, the sword in his hand ready at any time.
Silver Snow also showed its three tails, waiting in the air.
Surprisingly, however, there were no monsters, as if Tianxing's movements were her own illusions.
The air was filled with the calm of the storm, and Celestial Star and Silver Snow glanced at each other, ready to test first.
A ball of fire rose in Skystar's hand, and she was about to throw it forward, under the tree that had disturbed her.
At that moment, a voice rang out, "Stop, you can't use fire." ”
Tianxing and Yinxue were startled when they heard this, so they didn't care what the voice was talking about, and started talking first.
Seven fireballs in a row were thrown by the Celestial Star.
Then, before the fireball could reach its rightful destination, a green light stopped the fireball.
I saw that the green light was like a giant screen, it absorbed all the fireballs released by the stars, and when the last fireball was gone, the green light disappeared.
It all happened too fast, but in a flash of light.
Seeing that the fireball was easily blocked like this, Tianxing's face changed greatly, and he no longer hesitated, and attacked forward with Yinxue left and right.
It's just that before they could take two steps forward, they were frozen in place, ready to say that they were tied up by tree branches, and even Yinxue's tail was tied in three parts.
Another voice came, "Xiaoyou, please stop." ”
After the voice sounded, in front of the left side of Tianxing, that is, the big tree next to the tree where she was leaning and sitting, suddenly shook the trunk, and then, on the trunk, a face appeared, and soon, the face gradually became clear, and the trunk was gone, and an old man who was in his old age appeared, and he walked towards Tianxing with a cane taller than a person.
Yin Xue's face changed greatly, and she said loudly, "Are you a shape-shifting demon plant?"
No wonder Yinxue is so excited, it is really that the transformation demon plants are less than the transformation demon beasts, and the power of the heavenly tribulation they experience is not less than that of the demon beasts, but the demon plants are not better than the demon beasts, they have no strength, so the ability to resist the heavenly tribulation is also small, most of the demon plants are annihilated under the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, and the probability of transformation and annihilation is the largest of all the demon species.
Now this demon plant is actually in human form, you can imagine how strong its strength is.
At least it can be compared to the powerful adult holy beast.
No wonder neither it nor the stars could move.
Yin Xue watched the old man get closer and closer, and her heart sank little by little, lowering her head and thinking of a way to get out.
Tianxing looked at the old man, not knowing what he wanted to do, but one thing was certain, this person had no ill intentions, and if there were, the other party could have arrested them when they stepped into the forest.
I just don't know what it means? Is this point appearing because of the strange spirit honey?
The old man smiled and stopped when he was three steps away from Tianxing, and he first glanced at Yinxue who was shaking his head and shaking his fox's tail, and said, "Little guy, I am a demon plant, and I have no interest in your demon beast Neidan." ”
Looking at Tianxing again, "Why is Xiaoyou still here?"
Tianxing didn't want the other party to come up and ask the first question about the reason why she was in the secret realm, and it seemed that the other party was not simple, so he said vaguely, "I naturally have a reason for being here." ”
The old man smiled, and seemed to really believe Tianxing's answer, "Then where are you going again?"
Skystar continued, "Go where you need to go. ”
"Haha, it's funny. ”
The star was silent, and it felt that this man seemed to be more interesting than her answer, so it said, "Who are you? Why are you tying me up? Are you trying to eat me?"
The old man listened to Tianxing's fairy words, and as soon as he raised his hand, the restraints on the two of them disappeared, and Yinxue immediately stood with Tianxing and told Tianxing the identity of the old man.
Tianxing still kept looking up, his facial expression remained the same, but he was secretly looking at the other party in his heart.
Before the old man could speak, a small tree, that is, the tree where Tianxing was sitting, suddenly moved, it did not transform like the old man, but a human-like lip appeared on the trunk, opening and closing, "Grandpa, this person is so annoying that he actually burned me with a fireball." ”
The old man who was called grandpa by Xiaoshu soothed: "Didn't you tease others first?"
Xiaoshu saw that his grandfather was not standing by his side, but he still talked about it, and said unconvinced, "Who let them step on me one and lean on me, I'm still uncomfortable." ”
The old man smiled, "There was a misunderstanding, just say it." ”
Xiao Shu was not convinced, waved the branch, and pointed to the celestial star, "This man will burn me." ”
The old man didn't caress the little tree this time, but said, "There is a cause and effect, and she didn't mean it, if you look at it from another standpoint, you will be the same as her." ”
When Tianxing heard this, she roughly knew what was going on, she could say that she was too lucky, or what, she chose a random tree, which was the grandson of this shapeshifting demon plant, but what people said was right, there is a cause and effect, and she was the first to offend.
"This little tree, it's me who is wrong, please forgive me. ”
The little tree was a little surprised when he saw that Tianxing had apologized to it, but it was not a demon plant that was unforgiving, so he nodded proudly, and the crown of the tree shook and trembled, "Okay, since you have apologized, I will forgive it." ”
"It hasn't apologized to me yet, though. The little tree pointed to the silver snow trail.
In normal times, Yin Xue wouldn't have looked at this tree, but she couldn't stand the sound of a celestial star next to it, and a shapeshifting demon plant with unpredictable strength on the opposite side.
It had no choice but to bow its arrogant head and say sullenly, "I shouldn't have stepped on you." ”
Xiaoshu gave up, waved the branch, and said generously, "Forget it, I'll forgive you." ”
Skystar nodded to it.
Yinxue was disdainful, and secretly said little brat, forgive us, if it weren't for the fact that I knew the current affairs as a junjie, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to you.
The old man was very surprised to see that Tianxing and Yinxue had such a good attitude, and he said to Xiaoshu, "Child, you also did something wrong, now, it's time for you to apologize to them." ”
Xiaoshu nodded ignorantly, grandpa's words were obeyed in his heart, and he didn't resist apologizing, so he said sorry to Tianxing and Yinxue.
"Okay, now that everyone has talked about things, everything is fine. ”
If at the beginning, Tianxing was still wary of the old man, but now it seems that the sudden appearance of the old man and the little tree, guarding the rites of the human race, is not so dangerous.
"Xiaoyou, I'm the eldest in this forest, and they all call me the King of Trees, I don't know what Xiaoyou calls me?"
Tianxing also said kindly, "I'm Ling Tianxing, this is my partner, Yinxue." ”
The Tree King smiled, "This nine-tailed snow fox should be the demon pet of Tianxing Xiaoyou, right?"
Yin Xue's eyes were full of vigilance, and her face showed a fierce light.
Tianxing said: "The Tree King's predecessors have really good eyesight. ”
The Tree King stroked his long void and said with a smile, "Haha, I have the honor to discuss with the seniors in their clan, and I also know the breath of the nine-tailed snow fox clan, if the nine-tailed snow fox does not recognize the master, it will not follow the human race so easily." ”
Yin Xue's eyes widened, she swept her tail, and asked eagerly, "Do you know someone from my clan?"
The Tree King bowed his head and looked like a memory, "That was all 100,000 years ago, it's been too long, so long that I can only remember their breath without forgetting." ”
Yin Xue shuddered and said, "100,000 years ago, you, you lived for 100,000 years?" This is an old monster, among the demon clan, except for the demon clan at the level of the demon king, who can have such a high level of cultivation, who can live for so long?
The Tree King shook his head, "To be precise, I'm 147,853 years old this year, and my rings won't lie to me." ”
Tianxing is really taken aback now, 140,000 years, how long will it take?
Yinxue thought hard, but unfortunately, when it was born, the nine-tailed snow fox clan had already returned to its lair, and it didn't know many things, so it must be a person like this in the Demon Spirit Continent, and it couldn't recall the name.
The Tree King saw its tail to be knotted, and knew what Yinxue was thinking, and it smiled and said, "Little fox, don't think about it, your great-grandfather was not born when I became famous." ”
Yin Xue had no choice but to ask, "Senior, why are you here?" Such an old monster-level human race should be in the heaven of the demon race, the Demon Spirit Continent, how could it be in the backward Great Wilderness Realm?
The Tree King sighed, "I want to know this question too. ”
Tianxing said, "Senior Tree King, can't you go out of the secret realm?"
"No, all the creatures in the secret realm can't go out. ”
Tianxing suddenly thought of the blue fireflies, "Then why can the disciple take the blue fireflies out, and the demon beasts that have been selected as demon pets?"
The Tree King glanced at Tianxing and said slowly, "Because the blue firefly is already dead the moment it is caught, the corpse can naturally come out of the secret realm, and those demon pets that come out of the secret realm mean that it will always be out of touch with here, forget everything, and become the real demon pet of the human race."
Xiaoyou, although the nine-tailed snow fox is said to be your demon pet, it has its own consciousness, but it just says that your fate is connected together, and you are both prosperous, which is the way of the contract of the demon beast.
But the demon beast that came out of the secret realm lost its memory, and only accepted the thoughts given to it by the human race, which was no different from the forbidden one. ”
Tianxing said: "I see. At that time, she didn't quite understand why her senior brother told her that after leaving the secret realm, she shouldn't tell anyone about the Flame Tiger first, even if she saw it later, she couldn't show too intimacy.
Just ask a demon pet with no memory, how can people look at it with the eyes of the past?
She thought of the simple flame tiger, and couldn't help but feel sad for it, in the secret realm, it was a tsundere, narcissistic, self-explanatory, and alive tiger king, but out of the secret realm, it became a pet without memory, and there was no longer the happy appearance before, even the happy time, also forgotten.
Tianxing's heart was dull, and he said, "Senior Tree King, thank you for informing." ”
The Tree King nodded secretly and said, "I see that you have been here for a long time staring behind the vine in front of you, do you want to get honey?"
"Yes, I smell the smell of treasures. ”
At this time, Xiaoshu also interjected sourly, "Those bees, hate to die, they buzz every day, and when they make honey, they cover them tightly, and who makes them rare like honey." ”
Yin Xue listened to Xiao Shu's tone, and seemed to understand the characteristics of Qiling Peak very well, and asked, "Then what have you eaten? Is it delicious? How did you eat it?"
