Chapter 11: The Melting Wood Spirit
The ravine where they had camped earlier, after a great battle, had become a wolf-like sawdust basin, and now in this wood-soaked nest, there was an unprecedentedly astonishing explosion, and the mere sound of the sound had caused an extraordinarily loud effect.
I saw the exploded broken branches and wood blocks flying into the air, and a huge cloud of wood gas swelled up, sweeping the roots of the wood branches within a hundred zhang of the surrounding area, and blasted the basin into a deep concave pot bottom, the area has expanded several times, and countless broken wood and dust smoke are filled with the air.
A wood-based aura that soared into the sky, with a towering cloud in the sky, enduring, seen from a distance, like a huge sword halberd piercing the sky, so that Ah Jin and Ah Huang, who had fled hundreds of zhang away in an instant, looked back and couldn't help but be amazed.
Once the self-explosion of the big tree exploded, although the horizontal impact was still not small, almost chasing the backs of the two of them, they knew at this moment that they didn't have to run anymore, so they stopped and turned around to take a look, and they could also see the broken roots, broken whiskers, wood bark, and branches that were still flying in the sky after the explosion.
The two of them teleported away for only a moment, and they had already run so far, and now that they stopped, the two of them couldn't help but panting, staring at the explosion scene in the distance and opening their mouths wide.
This can be compared to the self-explosion of a master in the out-of-body period, and the huge energy contained in its body acts instantly, no less than the power of a small nuclear bomb fission, regardless of the explosion of broken branches and wood vapor in the sky, just blasting out the bottom of a wooden pot with a diameter of dozens of zhang is amazing enough, you must know how hard these wooden roots that have survived for many years are as hard as iron.
Seeing the wood slag branches in the air gradually scattered, and the wood gas slowly drifting around, Ah Jin sighed and said, "Ah Huang, let's go back and have a look." ”
The cold wood gas left at the explosion site combined with the pure wood gas made the local space environment worse than the surrounding area, and they had to return to the palace body shield to ensure that they were not eroded by the rich wood gas.
Before the two of them finished cleaning up, they suddenly saw the center of the original self-explosion in the distance, and suddenly flew out a dark cyan winding wood gas, volleyed up and quickly threw itself into the distance, and even if they tasted it, they could vaguely feel that there was a faint vitality.
Ah Jin was stunned and said, "What is that thing that flew away?"
Ah Huang said: "I don't know, since I can't stop it from flying away, go over and blow myself up and see if there's anything left." ”
The two of them turned around and flew back to the ravines that exploded into the bottom of a huge pot, and were on the way to escape, when they suddenly heard a faint meow, Ah Huang was suddenly stunned, slowed down and looked around, and also unfolded his divine sense to do fan scanning, and finally found that the sound came from under a stump stuffed with sawdust.
Ah Jin had also seen the source of the meow, waved an illusory golden hand, grabbed the ground, and picked up a thick layer of stump sawdust, and a wooden branch ravine appeared, leaning in, but it was a deep ditch densely covered with curved strange trees.
You can see a tiger-striped white cat faintly at the bottom of the ditch cowering behind a snake-shaped wooden branch, still shivering, Ah Jin smiled when he saw this: "Ah Huang, it's strange that your riding pet has not been seen when he fought, so he took refuge in the depths of the wooden ditch early." ”
Ah Huang shook his head and said: "Its cultivation is low, and the battle above the Yuan Infant Stage will not hide, and it will show up and look for death?"
Ah Jin laughed and said: "Since ancient times, cats have nine lives, and even if they are affected, they are not so easy to die." ”
Ah Huang ignored him, and spontaneously transmitted a message to Mao Dong: "If it's okay, you don't need to hide, it's safe up now, hurry up." ”
I saw a white shadow flashing in front of me, and Mao Dong, who had turned into a kitten, jumped out from under the wooden ditch a few steps, and landed on the ground outside, growing into the size of his body in the wind, and was waiting to laugh with his teeth, but Ah Huang ignored it, turned around and walked quickly towards the self-exploding wooden root.
What was shown in their eyes was nothing more than the center of the self-explosion that was covered with the bottom of the pot with broken branches and roots, and became covered by a cyan semicircular wood air mass, from the outside to the inside of the circle, surrounded by layers of cyan wood gas, like a big reverse whirlpool.
The cyan color of the wood gas mass decreases from the center to the outside, and the innermost cyan is the most intense, as if the dark cyan wood gas just now escaped from its center.
Ah Jin looked at the center of the cyan wood qi mass in a daze, and suddenly sighed: "Ah Huang, I understand what the dark cyan wood qi that flew away just now is." ”
Ah Huang closed his eyes and took a breath and said, "It must be the Yuan Spirit of the Log Demon who escaped by self-detonation to open our bondage formation." ”
Ah Jin said: "Human cultivators above the innate level can escape from the little primordial god when they are dying, and they can also escape from the primordial infant after they are married, which is equivalent to the log demon in the human cultivation out-of-body period, and it is impossible not to have the escape trick at the bottom of the box." ”
Ah Huang said: "Yes, it's no wonder that it will blow itself up so easily, it must have its life-saving tricks, maybe it will be easier than humans to regain their bodies." ”
As soon as they approached the edge of the cyan wood air mass, they did not dare to march any further, not far ahead, the irritation of pure wood qi was more obvious, although they had already done a lot of protection, they still felt the strong rejection and vicious erosion of the wood nature, and it was the best choice to stop at the ground under their feet.
Ah Jin suddenly squatted down and was silent for a long time, Ah Huang didn't know what he was thinking, squinted his eyes and stared at the center of the wood air mass not far away in a daze, only Mao Dong, who was also a wood attribute, walked lightly in the criss-crossing wood qi, and his expression was very happy.
Ah Huang's thoughts suddenly moved, he turned his hand and took out the strange wood bonsai and held it in his hand, repeatedly looked at the big belly limb stem of the building wood with twisted bone protrusions and a few branches and leaf buds that had not changed for thousands of years, and found that it would emit green crystal light from the branches and buds under the lingering wood qi.
After pondering for a long time, Ah Jin suddenly stopped thinking, took out a spirit bag and released Heng Yuan, and covered him with a layer of gold defense cover, so as not to erode him from the excessive wood qi here, otherwise it would be difficult to resist the wood qi that had turned cyan with the cultivation of Heng Yuan Chu alone.
As soon as Ah Jin waited for Heng Yu to come back to his soul, he said: "Heng Yuan, come and see, there is the wood air mass left behind by the log demon after the self-explosion, can you see what is famous?"
Heng Qirao had just added a defensive shield to Ah Jin, and he still shivered at the spirit spirit, and he also cast a layer of defensive cover himself, so he stared at the wood qi mass for a long time, and said in an uncertain tone: "It looks a bit like the spiritual mist released by the spiritual object, but it is much thicker, like the whole spiritual object melting inside, and then releasing attribute energy layer by layer." ”
Ah Jin nodded and said: "According to what you say, uncle, what I think in my heart, then I am much more certain, that's right, this is a wood spirit, or a melted wood spirit, Ah Huang ......"
He turned to Ah Huang in the language of the earth and said, "You take that building tree to the center of the wood air mass and put it down, and then return here, and we will see what kind of changes it will have up close." ”
Ah Huang smiled and said, "I was thinking so just now," he said and was about to walk towards the center of the wood air mass, when he stopped after thinking about it, waved his hand and pinched the trick, and added a few more layers of protection to his body, and then he walked forward.
The deeper he went, the more transparent the green crystal light emitted by the branches and buds of the building tree in his hand became, and the cyan wood qi lingering around his body became more and more stimulating and erosive to him, and there was even a feeling that the bubbles were being pressed by the tip of the needle.
The closer you get to the center of the wood air mass, the more intense the cyan color of the wood qi becomes, and the rejection and stimulation of non-wood creatures are also more powerful.
Finally, I reached the last central place, and the wood qi that tended to be dark cyan was already a little viscous, even to the extent that it would hinder the movement of objects, and when I went deeper into it, my vision was even more blurry, and I couldn't see anything at all without expanding my divine sense.
Ah Huang's forehead seemed to be sweating a little, and he forcibly explored the way with his divine sense, and finally found a place where the wood qi was the strongest, and reluctantly put the strange wood bonsai that was as bright as a green lantern on the ground, and put a ban on preventing the bonsai from being moved by the impact, and then he seemed to be sweating profusely and hurriedly withdrew.
Ah Jin saw Ah Huang staggering back to the same place panting, so he asked, "How is it, is it very uncomfortable there?"
Ah Huang held his knees with his palms and gasped for a while, then raised his head and sighed: "It's not uncomfortable, Lao Tzu has never been so cool, Ah Jin, why don't you go in and walk around." ”
Ah Jin stared at his expression and looked at it, shook his head and said, "Forget it, my body protection defense is not as good as yours, I can't bear this, it's better to stay outside and take a look." ”
Ah Huang laughed, threw out a futon and sat on the ground, and then exhaled a breath of air, as if he had exhausted all his strength when he walked to the center of the wooden air mass.
Ah Jin shook his head with a smile, and then looked intently at the Jianmu bonsai lamp that emitted a faint blue light in the center of the wood air mass, thinking that if it could be done, there would be no need to go out of his way to find the wood spirit, and when the four months came, he would be able to successfully fulfill his wish and return to the wooden city teleportation array.
Collect all the companions of the five elements, this is the mission of Ah Jin as the leader, only he remembers this statement in the inheritance, and even Ah Huang's inheritance does not show it, so Ah Jin is the most duty-bound, unlike Ah Huang once he thinks that it is not easy to mix, he has to retreat and find another way.
They stayed a little longer, and the loss was a little unbearable, and they could barely survive sitting cross-legged with all their strength, so Ah Jin had no choice but to put him into the spirit bag again, sighing, if he wanted this spirit hunter to enjoy the good fortune of witnessing Ah Qing's rebirth, he couldn't do it.
Suddenly, Ah Huang jumped up with a snort, slapped his ass with his hand again and again, as if he was sitting on pins and needles by mistake, Ah Jin looked at him in surprise and found that the big futon he had been sitting on had disappeared.
Ah Huang slapped his buttocks and bared his teeth and scolded: "I lost it, this bullshit wood root place, it can eat foreign pampas grass, and I didn't sit for a while, and the futon was all sucked up and eaten by the wood roots." ”
Ah Jin groaned: "The strange way is that on this whole Mu Yi Star, there are only horizontal and vertical and indiscriminately entangled trunks and roots, let alone leaves, not even a single grass can grow, and Nima's wood nature is too evil." ”
