Spells and Swords Section 2, Reverse Scales

The surroundings are already very quiet, and any sound will be amplified endlessly.

At this moment, this silence is even more deadly, revealing a breath of death, and like the calm before a storm, as if the next second will set off stormy waves.

Without any greeting, the branches of the surrounding trees began to wriggle. The branches of the trees moved like swift cheetahs. Branches of trees poured in from all directions.

In the face of this sudden terrorist attack, Si Dao always remained calm, calmly looking at the sharp branches that pierced him. Only when he looked at the corpses on the ground did he frown slightly. There were many more corpses on the ground than expected, in the thousands.

God knows how many people this wood demon killed!

However, Si Dao didn't have time to sigh. The surrounding trees were all alive and launched a swift attack on him. Such an offensive would be terrifying for any Qi Refining Cultivator.

However, Si Dao had no fear. He didn't even make a defensive gesture. He just quietly looked around, trying to find the location of the Wood Demon.

As for those branches, before they touched Si Dao, they stopped attacking one meter around Si Dao, and they were never able to advance a single bit. His body was covered with dense sharp branches, but Si Dao did not receive any substantial damage.

When he stepped into this field, Si Dao had already seen through everything.

With the current strength, Si Dao has a shallow understanding of illusion, and he can't easily see through the illusion formation. Even if he perceives something unusual, it is difficult for him to fully discern the illusion from the reality.

However, the reverse scale in Si Dao's heart easily tore apart the illusion. That reverse scale is a gift from Tsing Yi. The White Snake clan is a natural illusion powerhouse. Whites can recognize most illusions. As Xiaobai's mother and the oldest existence of the White Snake clan, Tsing Yi can naturally distinguish the authenticity of illusion at a glance, and the reverse scales gifted by Tsing Yi also have the same effect.

As soon as he stepped into this trap, Si Dao's heart began to burn, like a warning. The burning heat was transmitted through the blood to Si Dao's eyes, and after that, Si Dao could see the truth of the environment.

He pretended to be trapped in the formation of the Wood Demon, but in fact he wanted to find out where the Wood Demon was located. However, the Wood Demon was vigilant and hid deeply, not revealing it.

However, Si Dao did not do nothing. At the same time as entering the Wood Demon Formation, a layer of faint ice crystals condensed on the path he passed. These ice crystals seep into the ground and cling to the creeping branches of the trees.

When the branches of the trees in the sky struck Si Dao, the ice crystals had already condensed into ice cubes, completely freezing the roots of the tree and the entire formation under Si Dao's feet. The ice starts at the roots of the ground and gradually rises to freeze the ground and then all the branches on the ground.

The branches of the trees were covered in a white coat of ice. In the next second, all the branches shattered, turned into ice crystals, and drifted into the air.

At this moment, the ice crystals in the sky shrouded a radius of kilometers. Every ice crystal can bloom at any time, turn into an ice lotus, or freeze everything it touches.

This was supposed to be the Wood Demon's carefully designed formation domain, but now it has become the absolute ice domain of the Wood Demon.

And with the appearance of ice crystals in the sky, Si Dao's perception has increased dozens of times. He found the location of the Wood Demon, and found a trembling creature.

The ground broke open, and the wood demon was frozen by the ice, and in the posture of being sealed, it floated into the air and appeared in front of Si Dao.

In terms of appearance, the wood demon is about half a meter tall, with large eyes, a small mouth, and octopus-like tentacles on the lower body, which looks cute, like a big doll, rather than a demon with deep slaughter. The eyes of the wood demon were fierce and frightened. It wasn't looking at Si Dao, and when it appeared in front of Si Dao, it was already frozen and couldn't make any expressions.

In addition to the Wood Demon, there are also countless pieces of meat and blood that are also within the ice.

The minced flesh and blood clinged to the tentacles of the Wood Demon's lower body. It looks like the Timber was sucking on the flesh before.

The moment the ground broke, the moment the wood demon was frozen by Si Dao, a very strong smell of blood came to his face. Si Dao had never smelled such an aura, as if he was in a sea of blood.

If Si Dao took two steps forward, walked to the broken hole in the ground, and walked to the location where the wood demon was originally entrenched, he could see a huge ball of flesh.

It was a mass of blood twisted and bound together by countless human flesh. If you look closely, you can see that some of the human flesh and blood are arms, and some are thighs, densely packed and terrifying. The top of the blood mass was broken, and a piece was missing. That's where the Wood Demon was entrenched.

As a result, a blood hole appears at the top of the blood mass. The scene looks like a watermelon has been shaved off the top, revealing red flesh and red water.

Originally, the blood mass was buried deep in the ground, and it was seamlessly glued together with each other for the wood demon to absorb, and the smell of blood was not heavy. Now, because the wood demon was torn apart by Si Dao's ice, this blood mass was directly exposed to the air, and naturally emitted a strong smell of blood and stench.

There was no need to look closely at all, just from this disgusting smell, Si Dao knew that the wood demon must have killed a lot of people, much more than he imagined. Mere death is never enough to atone for the sins they have committed.

In the spring country, serious incidents of this nature are rare. Those who died, there was no other way than to lament the bad fate.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the murderous demon will die in no time. The wood demon has become Si Dao's subordinate prisoner, and life and death are between Si Dao's thoughts.

Si Dao raised his hand, and the frozen wood demon turned into endless fragments, scattered in the air.

From the beginning to the end, the Wood Demon was unable to put up any substantial resistance.

At this point, the mission should be over. But the strange thing is that the reverse scale of Si Dao's heart did not dissipate heat because of this, on the contrary, the blood was even hotter than just now. Under this scalding, the perception has become more acute, and the strength of the physical body seems to have improved a lot.

It's a vigilance. Since just now, Reverse Scale has been reminding Si Dao to be vigilant.

Now, the Wood Demon is dead, but the vigilance has not disappeared.

Yes, the real role of the reverse scale is much more than just seeing through illusions. The true value of the scales is the wild instinct. As the protective scale of the deadly part of the white snake, the role of the reverse scale is to perceive danger.

When faced with real danger, Reverse Scale instinctively protects the priest. Right now, Reverse Scale seems to think that the real danger hasn't gone away, and is even getting closer and closer to the priest.

However, Si Dao was unable to perceive the presence of any other living beings. He remained calm, calmly turned around, calmly preparing to leave here.

He's done with his mission, and of course he should get out of here.

As for the soul of the wood demon, it had already been absorbed by the blood spirit stone on Si Dao's chest the moment it appeared. With the absorption of the soul, Si Dao's spiritual power operation and recovery were a little faster.
