Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Tree of Winter Ghosts, Wooden Knife - Wood Blade
"What is buried under these three tombstone-like steles?" Looking at the three tombstone-like steles in front of him, Xu Tianao's curiosity drove Xu Tianao not only to see what was buried underneath.
"To dig, or not to dig?" He hesitated, but finally decided to dig under the stele to see what was buried under the soil. I saw him gesturing with his hands folded on his chest and said, "No matter if there are dead people buried down there or what, don't blame it!"
After speaking, Xu Tianao's heart moved, and his whole body carried the "Panlong Entering the Holy Formula", poured the power into his hands and began to dig up. Don't say it, Xu Tianao's approach is really good, this will be the defensive power of the "Panlong into the Holy Technique" into his hands, digging up the soil, it is better than using tools, and after a while, the soil under the stone tablet was dug out by him A big hole. I estimate that if Li Xuefeng wanted to know that Xu Tianao used the power of the "Panlong Entering the Holy Technique" to dig the soil, it is estimated that he would be so angry by Xu Tianao that he vomited blood, hahaha.
The things buried under the soil were not deep, and Xu Tianao felt that he hadn't made much effort before he dug into the things buried underneath. "Damn, what is this?Why is there a big stone slab underneath?" After pushing the excavated soil away, Xu Tianao did not see anything like a dead man's coffin, but a large stone slab.
"Isn't this guy funny? Why is there nothing to bury a big slate what are you doing here? I thought I could discover a new world?" Although he didn't have much effort digging the soil just now, when he saw this big slate, Xu Tianao expressed a lot of depression, he thought to himself that he knew that there was a broken slate underneath, so he wouldn't dig it.
Xu Tianao, who stood up, was feeling bored and wanted to leave, but he saw some handwriting on a corner of the buried stone slab. "Wait, how can there be words on this slate?" Seeing the words appear on the slate, he was about to leave, and quickly squatted down again, cleaning the soil on the slate with both hands. After a while, all the soil on the slate had been cleaned up, and the handwriting on the slate was clearly presented in front of Xu Tianao's eyes.
"Mu Feng: This knife is made from the branches of the Winter Ghost Tree in the swamp of the Hundred Ghosts' Grudges, and its material is incomparably harder than ordinary gold and iron. When I practiced knives in the deep sea, facing the endless power of the sea, I finally realized the truth of "softness can be strong". Use a wooden knife to fight with the Falling Knife, so that as long as the Wooden Knife does not compete with the Falling Knife in strength, he will blindly fight with it. After a long time, the person who falls the knife will inevitably fail in spiritual power, and at this time, the person who makes the wooden knife will undoubtedly win, which is the method of the wooden knife to win the heavy knife. As a result, Li Xuefeng has reached the realm of "not staying in things, plants, trees, bamboos and stones can be used as knives". ”
"It turns out that this wooden blade is a wooden knife that Li Xuefeng once used! This only records Li Xuefeng's experience of practicing the knife and the casting material of the knife, but why did he record this experience on this stone slab, and then buried this stone slab here? It is really strange?" Xu Tianao stood here puzzled.
"Since his use of the wooden knife is recorded on the stone slab and buried here, and the material and name of the wooden knife are also recorded on the stone stele, can this wooden knife also be buried under this stone slab?" Xu Tianao, who was standing in place, slapped his head and suddenly came to inspiration, since the name of the knife is there, and the material of the knife is said, and he also explained his experience of practicing the knife, and the name of the wooden knife is written on the stone tablet, so how can there be no wooden knife buried below?
I saw that at this moment, Xu Tianao was accumulating strength with one hand, only to hear him shout: "Broken!" The stone slab in front of him that recorded Li Xuefeng's experience with a wooden knife was split by Xu Tianao from the middle! "Sure enough, it's down here!" Seeing that the wooden knife used by Li Xuefeng was indeed hidden under the stone slab, Xu Tianao couldn't help but say happily.
Picking up this wooden knife that Li Xuefeng refined from the branches of the Winter Ghost Tree, Xu Tianao only felt that the blade was very light, there was no weight, and when he held the wooden knife in his hand, there was a trace of cool air emanating from the knife, and then look at the blade of the wooden knife, which was still significantly sharp after being buried for so many years. "I don't know what kind of tree this Winter Ghost Tree is, the material of this wood is really very good, very hard, since it can be buried underground for so long, there is no sign of corrosion!" At this time, Xu Tianao secretly surprised himself for this wooden knife in his heart, in fact, Xu Tianao just didn't know, don't look at it is just a wooden knife, the wood used in this wooden knife, but it is the same as recorded on the stone slab, it was refined by Li Xuefeng using the winter ghost wood that grew in the swamp of the Hundred Ghosts in the easternmost part of the War Spirit Continent! Then someone is going to ask, what is this Hundred Ghosts Swamp, and what is this Winter Ghost Wood?
The Hundred Ghosts Resentment Swamp is located in the easternmost part of the War Spirit Continent, and is covered by miasma all the year round. In ancient times, for unknown reasons, a great war between monks was caused in this place, and countless monks died in this place, because the dead monks were too resentful, and no mortal dared to break into this place. After thousands of years of changes, I don't know if it was because of geological reasons or because there were too many monks who died here, and the plain, which was originally a flat river, has become a swamp covered by miasma all year round.
Yes, since this is an ancient battlefield of ancient monks, it must be buried with the magic weapons of the monks who died in ancient times, so there is an endless stream of monks who come to hunt for treasures with this kind of heart. However, the monks who went deep into the swamp of the hundred ghosts and resented the swamp to hunt for treasures were all gone and never returned. To say that the miasma in the swamp of the hundred ghosts is not comparable to the miasma in the ordinary swamp, the miasma here, after ordinary people enter, inhale a little and directly turn into a puddle of white bones, and after the monk who can use supernatural means enters, if there is no powerful magic weapon to protect the body, after inhaling the miasma here, although it will not turn into a puddle of white bones, it will also affect its own absorption of spiritual power.
Everyone also knows that the reason why monks can use all kinds of magical means is because monks can absorb the aura in the air around them, so if they can't absorb the aura themselves, there is not much difference between a monk who doesn't have aura and a mortal. It was also the reason why Duan Lao, who came to the earth back then, was seriously injured and difficult to recover from without the supply of spiritual energy, so he sealed himself in the painting magic weapon.
I don't know why the monks who came here to hunt for treasures, most of them don't have any powerful talisman magic weapons, after entering this swamp of hundred ghosts and resentment, after inhaling a small amount of miasma, there is a situation where the supply of spiritual power is insufficient and cannot absorb the spiritual energy, and then most of the monks who are looking for treasures, in the case of insufficient spiritual power, there is no way to identify the road, and they have not yet walked out of this swamp of ghosts and resentment, and they died in it.
To say that the most terrifying thing in this swamp of ghosts and resentment is not this miasma, in addition to this miasma and all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts in the swamp, the most terrifying thing is that in this swamp, there is a super perverted ghost king! This ghost king is ten zhang high, and there are three huge black skeletons around him like a yin fire, and the skeletons in front of him are also unusual, and there are hundreds of bloody broken spears and broken swords inserted in the cracks of the bones, and in his hands he holds a huge spear, and the ghostly light on the spear emerges, and at a glance you know that it is not an ordinary thing.
This ghost king was captured by an ancient monk who died here, and because the monk who captured this ghost king finally died here, the ghost king was buried in the ground. And then I don't know why, the ghost king has gone through an unknown number of years, after absorbing the heavy resentment here, it broke through the seal set up by the dead ancient monks, and drilled out of the ground, and then often haunted this swamp of ghosts and resentments, usually feeding on the souls of dead monks, and its whereabouts are unpredictable. During this period, there was once an expedition team of five people, after going deep into the swamp of the hundred ghosts, it was very unlucky, and happened to meet the ghost king, and was finally swallowed by the ghost king, and finally only one person escaped from the swamp of the hundred ghosts, but he was already scared silly.
And this winter ghost tree that grows in the swamp of the hundred ghosts has black branches, has no leaves all year round, and does not flower and bear fruit. Its wood is so hard that even a weapon made of gold and iron would be impossible to cut off a single branch of it. In addition to its own hard material, this Winter Ghost Tree can also attract the ghosts who died unjustly in this swamp around it because of its Yin attributes, so the Ghost King also often haunts the Winter Ghost Tree and devours the dead ghosts.
At that time, Li Xuefeng also strayed into this swamp of the hundred ghosts and resentment, only because he had cultivated the "Panlong Entering the Holy Technique", so the miasma in the swamp failed to cause any harm to him. Li Xuefeng, who was looking for a way out in the swamp of the hundred ghosts, also encountered this winter ghost tree by mistake, and felt that its material was quite hard, suitable for making weapons, and then split a small branch and took it away, so he made this current wooden blade!
Xu Tianao, who was holding the "Wood Feng", felt that this wooden knife was quite light, and for him who had cultivated the "Panlong Entering the Holy Technique", it was like holding a branch in his hand.
"Since Li Xuefeng left this wooden sword, it must have his deep meaning, so I might as well use this wooden sword to try this seven-pole sword technique!" Because the first form (incineration) attribute of the seven-pole sword method is fire, although the material of this wooden blade is extremely hard, but after all, it is made of trees, Xu Tianao gave up the idea of using wood blade to try this first-style seven-pole sword technique.
"Then let's try the second type (Ice Spirit), the cold air rises, and the ice is frozen for thousands of miles!" I saw that at this moment, Xu Tianao held Mu Feng tightly, and immediately slashed a (ice) knife type towards the open space in front of him, and the huge blue knife qi swept across the open space in front of him, where the knife qi passed, it was frozen by the heavy cold air, it was originally a green grass clearing, and in an instant, all the green grass on it was frozen by the swept knife qi, and the green grass in front of it was no longer the green grass that had been there before, but instead it had turned into a large area of ice and snow, which was full of crystal clear ice crystals.
"It's so powerful! It's really the effect of splitting with the palm knife is one heaven and one earth!" Looking at the large open space in front of him that was frozen by the sword qi just now, Xu Tianao couldn't help but be secretly surprised, sure enough, it was a good thing to have a suitable weapon in his hand, and even the knife style that was displayed seemed to be very effective with half the effort!
In fact, Xu Tianao just didn't know, although this Mu Feng was made of trees, because the tree of winter ghosts grows in this swamp of hundred ghosts and resentment all year round, and the attribute is yin. However, if he had used the blade in his hand just now to display not (Ice Flame) but (Incineration), this knife style would probably be greatly reduced, but it would definitely be much stronger than the power he used to slash with his palm knife.
Now that he knew that there was a wooden knife buried under the wooden stele of Mu Feng, Xu Tianao was very confident that under the other two steles, there must also be a knife that Li Xuefeng had used. After being very satisfied with the trick (Bing Lie) he had just used, Xu Tianao stuck Mu Feng in the ground, walked to the stone tablet where the "Heavenly Fall" was buried, and started to dig up the soil vigorously.
