Chapter 556: Mysterious Copper Insect Tree
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the world filled with wild aura, dozens of lights and shadows swept through the air without stopping at all, heading straight to the southwest.
At the front of dozens of lights and shadows, Zhou Yuan took the lead.
His eyes kept scanning everywhere, identifying the direction, and in such a rapid rush, he could also notice that there were many gazes projecting in some dark places, all without too much kindness.
Now, there are countless forces in the Xuanyuan Cave Heaven. They are trying their best to collect the Xuanyuan essence, and there is naturally a struggle between them.
Here, even the names of the six giant sects are not easy to use. The most effective one is the size of the fist. If the sages of their six sects are alone and in poor condition, they may still attract many wolves' attention. Even if they are found flaws and opportunities, they will pounce on them without hesitation and tear them apart.
Fortunately, everyone has just entered Xuanyuan Cave Heaven and is empty-handed, so Zhou Yuan and the others have been snooping along the way, but no one who is not open-eyed dares to come forward to stop him.
So, when about half a day passed, Zhou Yuan and the others finally approached a destination with three colors on the map...
Swish!
Dozens of figures were all landing on top of huge ancient trees. They looked ahead and saw a mountain that appeared there. The mountain was not too majestic, but on the wall, Zhou Yuan and the others could see a light pattern looming.
That light pattern is the mark of their Cang Xuan Sect.
"It should be here." Looking at the mark, Zhou Yuan confirmed that they had not found the wrong place.
When the other disciples heard this, they all looked happy.
"But here is so quiet..." Gu Hongyi said with some confusion. They had also encountered many source beasts growing in Xuanyuan Cave Heaven along the way. The bodies of those source beasts were extremely large and not easy to mess with, so they all avoided them.
But now, if there is really the essence of the three-color mysterious source here, why is it so calm?
Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "Ten people in groups, search first. If there is any situation, send a signal directly."
The disciples who were able to obtain the quota for entering Xuanyuan Cave Heaven were all elites in Cangxuan Sect. So when they heard Zhou Yuan's order, they quickly began to group and finally flew out and landed on the mountain ahead.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuan said to Gu Hongyi, Zhou Tai, Lu Yan and others beside him: "You follow me."
He quickly flew out, took the others into the mountains, then walked through the forest, and quickly headed towards the top of the peak.
They were all vigilant, and their energy was surging around them, and they were always ready to fight.
However, what surprised Zhou Yuan and the others was that they still did not encounter any obstacles until they reached the top of the mountain. There seemed to be no source beast in this mountain.
On the top of the mountain, other disciples gathered together and shook their heads to indicate that there was no abnormality.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuan frowned slightly. Is there really no source beast here?
"There is no strange fluctuation here, and there seems to be no essence of the mysterious source." Zhou Tai, who was standing beside him, hesitating for a moment.
The other disciples were a little disappointed when they heard this. It seemed that their luck was not good. Although there was once the three-color mysterious essence here, it seemed that this time, it was not born.
Zhou Yuan did not speak, but raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain was covered with rocks, which seemed a bit desolate. Among the rocks, there was only an ancient tree standing, but the ancient tree also showed a withered posture, with countless branches and leaves falling down, lying softly among the rocks.
There seems to be no strange fluctuations here, like a dead mountain.
Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly walked slowly towards the withered ancient tree. With his palms, the Tianyuan pen flashed out and quickly expanded in his hand.
The tip of the pen strokes across the ground, sparking.
The other disciples were surprised when they saw Zhou Yuan's appearance and looked at the withered ancient tree with confusion. Could it be that there is something wrong with this tree?
But no matter how they perceived it, they did not feel any fluctuations in the withered ancient tree.
Zhou Yuan ignored them and just stared at the withered ancient tree, gradually approaching, and the source energy rose all over his body, obviously he was planning to take real action.
He approached step by step and soon arrived at a distance of only ten feet from the withered ancient tree.
However, just as he was about to take steps again, suddenly, the soft branches lying around him shot out suddenly, and a faint light flashed, tearing the air directly, and stabbing Zhou Yuan fiercely.
Such an offensive caught people off guard.
The disciples around him even exclaimed, "Is there really a problem with this withered ancient tree?"
Ding! Ding!
The snow-white hair whizzed out at this time, colliding with countless branches, like gold and iron colliding, sparks splashing everywhere, and the violent aftermath shattered the rocks on the ground.
Zhou Yuan stopped, holding the Tianyuan pen, the hair spread out from the tip of the pen, resisting the fierce attack of the many branches, staring at the withered ancient tree in front of him indifferently, and said, "It's great to hide, but unfortunately he is still not smart enough. If you scare you, you can't help it."
The withered ancient tree is indeed very powerful in hiding itself. Even he failed to notice something strange. However, it was precisely because of this that Zhou Yuan had some doubts.
Even if ordinary ancient trees wither, they will always have extremely weak traces of source energy, but there is no ancient tree in front of them at all. If there is no problem, it would be really strange.
hiss!
The ancient tree in front of me burst into sharp roars, and the withered color on its trunks quickly dissipated, replaced by bronze-like colors, flashing with a sharp cold light under the sunlight.
call out!
The next moment, the sharp branches covered the sky and the earth were like thousands of sword energy, covering Zhou Yuan, with a fierce momentum.
"Take action, help Chief Zhou Yuan!" Behind the other disciples saw this scene, they shouted loudly, and immediately fierce source energy attacks roared out, colliding with countless bronze branches.
Boom boom!
The violent source energy spread out, shattering the rocks on the ground.
The disciples' offensives were fierce. Relying on the advantages of many people, they had no surprises to gain the upper hand and force the bronze branches back. However, the bronze ancient tree was extremely strange. Even though the branches were broken, they were soon reborn. As the source energy rolled, they actually stopped the offensives of dozens of Cang Xuan Sect disciples.
Zhou Yuan was a little surprised to see this scene. You should know that these disciples are all elites selected from one in their Cangxuan Sect. If they are placed elsewhere, they can be regarded as genius figures.
Now that so many people join forces, how about not even getting this bronze ancient tree?
However, he also saw that the rebirth ability of this ancient bronze tree was quite powerful, and it seemed that no matter how severe the damage was, it could be recovered quickly, and the source energy was like a continuous stream.
If no other disciples share the offensive, Zhou Yuan would really have to grind it with him when it comes to fighting alone.
"Zhou Yuan, this should be the Xuan Tong Insect Tree." Gu Hongyi suddenly came to Zhou Yuan and whispered.
"The Xuan Tong Insect Tree?" Zhou Yuan was stunned.
"This is a very strange source beast. The ancient tree outside is just a shell. What really controls everything is the mysterious bronze insect hidden in it. If this insect is not killed, the bronze tree will be immortal and can continue to fight with people."
"But the Xuan Tong Worm is good at hiding, almost blending with ancient trees, and can't be found at all." Gu Hongyi's pretty face showed up with a look of worry. He couldn't find the Xuan Tong Worm. I'm afraid that even a saint son here would not be able to wipe out this thing.
Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, but he didn't expect that their first battle was to meet such a difficult target.
"I suggest retreating directly, there is no need to waste it. After all, there are many people from other forces in this area. If we consume too much here, we may be taken advantage of the situation." Gu Hongyi hesitated for a moment and said.
Zhou Yuan said slowly: "But there are probably three-color mysterious essences here."
Gu Hongyi's teeth nibbled her red lips, and the appearance of the mysterious bronze insect tree here shows that it is extraordinary, so there is a high possibility that the three-color mysterious essence exists.
"But this Xuan Tong Worm Tree is too difficult..." she smiled bitterly.
Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his slender fingers beat Tianyuan Bibi's body rhythmically, murmured: "Are you good at hiding..."
After dozens of breaths, his fingers suddenly paused, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
His eyes closed and suddenly opened the next moment.
"Break the Holy Pattern!"
The world in front of him changed in an instant. Zhou Yuan locked in the ancient tree, and the bronze trunk quickly faded in his pupils. Then, he saw that there was a long blue worm that was only about a foot or so, lying in it.
It constantly draws majestic source energy from the earth through the trunks, and then injects into ancient trees and fights with many disciples.
However, at this moment, it suddenly shook violently, and a pair of insect eyes raised and looked towards Zhou Yuan. It was a little scared. It was obvious that it had noticed that its body had been detected by Zhou Yuan.
It was so bad that it was about to dive into the ground.
Swish!
Zhou Yuan's figure disappeared at this time and shot out.
Countless bronze branches thorned down, but even the corner of his clothes could not be touched. His figure appeared directly in front of the trunk in the surprised gaze of many disciples.
"Break the source!"
At this time, the snow-white hair of Tianyuan's pen quickly turned into a dark and ink-like color, which was extremely sharp and irresistible.
Buzz!
A dark light passed by and thrust downwards at the bronze ancient tree in front of you.
laugh!
The black light easily tore the hard bronze bark, piercing through it like thunder, and then swept across it suddenly, and the entire tree trunk was broken at this time.
But this time, the tree trunk did not rebirth and restore, because when the tip of the pen passed, a shrill whistle sounded, and all the disciples saw a long green worm several feet long, lifted up by the tip of the pen, and struggled violently, and the vitality gradually disappeared.
boom!
As the green insect was killed, the ancient tree collapsed at this time.
Buzz!
The moment the ancient tree collapsed, rays of light suddenly rose into the sky between the holes.
The light presents three colors, and the mysterious light flows, just like a bell of heaven and earth, giving people an extremely mysterious feeling.
Everyone present's eyes were frozen on it at this moment, and the next moment, the look of ecstasy emerged from everyone's face.
Because they all knew what that was... It was always the thing they dreamed about when they entered Xuanyuan Cave Heaven...
The essence of mysterious origin!
