Chapter 101: Root Crisis
The Sichuan-shaped mountains are sandwiched by low valleys, and those peaks are not low, but they are only tens of meters higher than the giant's sitting body.
Fengyun didn't know whether to call him a human or not, because he looked more like a giant primate no matter how he looked. He has a thick coat of black hair that runs from the top of his head to his back, but has less hair on his face, chest and abdomen. His face resembles a human, but with a flat nose bridge and bulging mouth, coupled with deep-set eye sockets, Fengyun can't help but think of the hero of a movie in the system's memory.
From the knowledge and memories inherited from the wind, this giant looks very much like a giant ape hundreds of thousands of years ago, only countless times larger.
The giant tree was growing rapidly, its branches and leaves spreading desperately, trying to touch as much sunlight as possible, and it was in the middle of the three peaks, and Fengyun could see its thick roots like a tumbling and winding giant worm piercing into the ground. The hard rock cracked inch by inch under the squeezing of its roots, and before it could fall down the mountain, it was entangled and swallowed up by countless tiny roots.
Fengyun looked back, and at the foot of the mountain behind him, it seemed to form a withered and withered wave, surging into the distance, and the greenery in his eyes was being concealed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What's that?" Ah Fu followed, and there was a humming sound of electricity behind the LED display - it was surprised.
"Kuafu ......" Li Xiaoyue's voice trembled a little, in the history of learning from the Great Witch Grandma, the name of the Kuafu clan always appeared at the beginning, they were the natural enemies of the human race.
Before the Suiren learned to use fire, in those gray days, the Terrans were the food of Kuafu.
Their strength has even won the recognition of the scale clan, they can drive the spirit snake of the scale clan, and the newborn human race can only hide in the cave under the search of the green and yellow spirit snake in their hands, and carefully hide in the cave to survive.
It wasn't until later that the Suiren set fire and Fuxi refined witches that the Terrans finally got rid of the slaughter of the Kuafu clan and drove them out of Middle-earth in one fell swoop.
However, when she saw this terrifying creature again, the fear from the depths of her blood and genes still occupied Li Xiaoyue's mind.
Kuafu rummaged through the lush branches and leaves of the giant tree with his head tilted, trying to find the fruit to eat, but he found nothing but the first few ones.
He snorted a little impatiently, and the air flow from his nose blew down the boulder at the top of the mountain, and fell into the bottom of the mountain with a loud bang.
At last, he found another one, and happily stuffed it into his mouth, but when it reached his mouth, it suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.
He hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but the wild fruit fell to the ground and disappeared immediately.
"Ahh
In frustration, he stomped his feet and sat on the ground with a whimper, his arms slamming down the mountain as if he had caused an earthquake.
Fengyun dispelled the idea of continuing to get closer, although the black ball in his body sent out a burning thought urging him to continue walking, but at present, his strength had not yet recovered, and he really had no chance of winning in the face of such a terrifying giant.
Kuafu lost his temper, got up and continued to search for fruit among the branches and leaves of the giant tree, Fengyun turned around and whispered to Li Xiaoyue: "Let's go down the mountain, be quiet, don't be discovered by him." ”
"Can I put him in the database? There's no record of him in the database. Ah Fu pointed to Kuafu and said.
"Whatever you want, let's go!" Fengyun urged.
"Fengyun ......" Li Xiaoyue said in a trembling voice on the side: "I can't move......"
Countless tiny roots sprouted on the mountain at some point, growing rapidly, and they silently tied Li Xiaoyue's feet.
The light in the small hole above the Afu display flashed, and it was recording video, which was the first time it had the opportunity to update data to the database, which was a rare experience for it.
"Huh, what's that?" the root tendrils didn't let go of its iron lump, and it was spreading upwards along its claws.
"What kind of plant is this? It can corrode my shell. "A small flame erupts from the tip of the mechanical finger, which gradually turns into a gas cutting flame as the fuel flow rate increases. The flames swept through the spreading roots, and the juice in them squeaked under the heat and shrank back like a living thing.
The roots that clinged to Li Xiaoyue and Ah Fu were only a small part, and Fengyun looked down and found that he had been surrounded by roots.
The black ball at the dantian emitted a more intense heat, and those roots seemed to be able to feel it, growing even more wildly, and the two strongest of them were like giant snakes, swooping towards the wind and clouds.
"Damn!" Fengyun quickly jumped away, and the thick roots pierced directly into the ground, and the huge force collapsed countless pieces of rubble and splashed out.
Taking advantage of the momentum to jump next to Li Xiaoyue, Fengyun reached out and pulled off the roots that were wrapped around her, pulled her up, pointed to the bottom of the mountain and shouted, "Run!"
Li Xiaoyue glanced at him quickly, did not hesitate, and immediately ran down the mountain.
With just this effort, Fengyun's feet were already tied up by the roots that broke out of the ground, and a thick rhizome spread up his legs, surging towards his lower abdomen.
Pinching the rhizome, the wind and clouds looked around, the whole mountain peak had become a sea of roots, countless tiny roots danced gently, like living creatures, and the tips were pointed at him, to be precise, to his navel.
"Damn!" Fengyun scolded, he had just lost his strength, and his magic power had not yet recovered, and now was the time when he was at his weakest, which made him suddenly fall into a crisis.
The rhizome he pinched in his hand writhed wildly, as if it was a silent roar, desperately searching for the location of his navel.
As soon as he tore it off, pale green juice splashed everywhere, and the rhizome twitched and retracted. A little juice got on his hands.
Looking at Ah Fu, who was still filming, Fengyun thought for a while, and still reminded: "Don't you go quickly?"
"Oops! I can't stand it!" Ah Fu's flame could no longer cope with the growing number of roots, it was no longer greedy for shooting, and with a flick of its four paws, it was already in its big belly, and its round head turned twice, and sank, and it was also in its stomach, and it shrank into a big ball in a second.
"It's slippery!" A paw stretched out and sprayed a layer of slippery and greasy oil on the ball, and the rhizome that spread could not be climbed for a while, and with a push of the paw, Ah Fu rolled down the hillside, and soon caught up with Li Xiaoyue, who was one step ahead.
Looking at Li Xiaoyue, who was staggering down the mountain, according to her speed, she would be caught up by Gensu if she couldn't run down the mountain at all. Rootbeard's target was him, and Fengyun gritted his teeth and turned his head and ran along the ridge to the other side.
His strength was too weak, and after losing the power of the Divine Yuan, he had almost no means of self-preservation. He had always wanted to devote a period of time to concentrate on cultivation and improve his magic power level, but the reality did not give him this opportunity.
He has been under the influence of unknown forces, dragging him and putting him in all kinds of difficulties.
Feeling the heat of his lower abdomen, Fengyun didn't know why the black ball was like this, including these roots, why he was so crazy attracted to the black ball, no, they were attracted to each other.
Fengyun could feel the anxiety of the black ball in his body, and it wanted to combine with those roots now.
However, the way of union is to penetrate his body.
Fengyun misses the feeling of flying, but now he can only run on his legs.
At this moment, as if something had been catalyzed, the black ball suddenly trembled, and the surrounding rolling clouds and mist rolled up like a boiling pot, and a trace of sweaty energy surged in it.
The energy between the clouds was gathering, and the continuous flashes and roars even reached the outside of Fengyun's body, and the clouds and mist wrapped the entire black ball, and little raindrops fell from it, and a miniature thundercloud storm accumulated inside him.
Click!
A bolt of lightning slashed through the clouds onto the black ball, followed by a second.
Click!
The roar of lightning gradually joined together, like tearing cloth, and a moment later, the entire black ball was already a flash of thunder. The clouds and mist continued to turn into raindrops in the thunder, converging on the black ball, and the water droplets no longer seeped in, but formed a large area of water on the black ball, and only the sharp edges and corners could still remain on the surface of the water.
Rumble!
Suddenly, tens of thousands of thunderbolts suddenly concentrated in one point, and the powerful energy actually broke through the blockade of the clouds and mist, and rushed to the outside world!
Airplanes!
A tingling sensation was born from the dantian, and then pierced through the bone marrow, through the flesh and blood, and burst out from the body.
Whoa!
A dense arc of electricity was drawn between the strands, and the electric current struck a series of crackling sounds in the air.
Fengyun's muscles twitched from the sudden electric current, staggered, and almost fell. But after such a delay, he was caught by the root system that came immediately.
Countless wildly spreading rhizomes wrapped around Fengyun's feet, and the strange force of the indiscriminate pulling suddenly caused him to lose his balance and fall to the ground.
Fengyun tore at the twisted rhizomes, but his hands were tied, and the greedy rhizomes surged up his legs and towards his waist and abdomen, trying to pierce his flesh and burrow into his bones.
The blood mist was filled, and he urged the magic power in his body with all his might, but he could only delay it for a moment, and he watched as a thick rhizome ripped open his clothes and aimed at his navel.
"!
His face was flushed, and his forehead was bruised, and he tried to break free from the shackles of the rhizome, but the rhizome would not wait for him, and the thickest rhizome had already swung its sharp tip and pierced his navel!
Airplanes!
As if feeling the movement of the rhizome, the rotation speed of the black ball in Fengyun's body suddenly accelerated, and the frequency of the cloud surge also increased rapidly, a large amount of electric charge was created and burst out in an instant, and the moment the rhizome touched his navel, a dazzling electric light lit up, and the speed of time seemed to slow down to the extreme in an instant.
Fengyun watched as the electricity burst from his body slowly spread down the rhizome, like a power grid, and he could even see the surging electrons passing through the gaps in the air, creating a channel and forming an arc, but the speed was as slow as a snail.
Perhaps only a fraction of a second has passed, and the flow rate of time has returned to normal, and the power grid has spread out in an instant, and countless roots have formed conductors of their own, guiding these currents to one place like lines.
Fengyun was still bound to the ground, but soon, a shadow overshadowed his vision.
The huge tree was slowly moving towards him, its huge canopy obscuring the entire sky.
"Don't run! I haven't eaten yet!"
The rumbling sound was like a frequency of earthquakes, and Kuafu's huge head protruded from under the canopy.
