As the heat sets in, the trees grow faster and faster. It's as if the trees are full of springs, branches slanting out, spreading in all directions unscrupulously, like horned dragons dancing wildly.
Such hot temperatures cause trees to grow wildly, making people extra anxious, and also evaporate the water vapor in the air.
There is no moisture in the surrounding environment, and even the bark of the big tree formed by sword skills is burnt brown.
This damn climate...wouldn't it be a pity not to set a fire?
Deputy Chi glanced at Tang Zhao, raised the wine gourd and drank a few sips. The smell of wine leaked slightly, and there was a danger of a fire.
"puff--"
The smell of alcohol spurted out, already carrying sparks, and poured it onto the big tree.
At the same time, Tang Zhao drew his sword and swung it out, causing light to rise into the sky instantly.
The light shines diagonally from bottom to top, inserting into the lush leaves.
The moment he took action, Tang Zhao wanted to try to use the sun's rays to pierce the bark of the tree like a sword, injuring the very foundation of the sword technique. Compared with slow-burning in a fire, it is more efficient to hit the heart directly.
But the facts proved that he was overthinking. Even if he concentrated the light to the extreme and consumed the sword energy as fast as fire, he could not harm the bark of the tree at all.
There is indeed a world of difference between swordsmanship and swordsmanship. Although swordsmanship will gradually become more powerful through continuous practice and the accumulation of sword energy, swordsmanship is swordsmanship and cannot be easily broken by swordsmanship.
But if the sunlight is concentrated to a certain point, although it may not cause enough damage, it will bring high temperatures.
And spirits are flammable!
Wine, trees, sunlight, and heat all come together to ignite almost instantly.
call--
Clusters of flames burned on the big tree. In the blink of an eye, clumps appeared on the east and west, covering the surface of the tree, as if there were large and small flame pimples on the bark.
It's just that although the flames burned violently, they only stayed on the surface. Tang Zhao could see clearly that it was not so much the bark that was burning, but the wine slurry on the surface of the bark that was burning. After the deflagration, the bark smeared with the wine burned.
If it is dry, the flame will go out naturally, and the clean bark next to it cannot be burned at all.
As for the two swordsmen competing in the clouds, no one glanced down. It seemed that they didn't know what little moves the two swordsmen at their feet made. Maybe the swordsmen didn't need to pay attention to the swordsmen in the first place.
On the other hand, the outer array forest was too dry and hot, and was easily ignited by flying sparks. Several fires had already broken out, and the flames were blazing, adding even more heat to the air.
Just now Deputy Chi scolded Zhou Chengzhi for setting fire to the mountain. Now it was the turn of the two officers from the District Inspectorate to set fire to the mountain.
"It seems that this big tree is not combustible." Deputy Chi was originally not optimistic about Tang Zhao's intervention in the swordsman fight. "Although trees can catch fire, the tree formed by swordsmanship may not be called a tree, and even this may
It's a sword elephant. Our method of setting fire seems to be ineffective."
This Shangzhu Kingdom is known as the Shangzhu Kingdom. When the summer heat came, both Tang Zhao and Deputy Chi thought it was a sword elephant, just like Deputy Chi's sword elephant smelled of alcohol. But now it seems that his sword
The meaning may be "growth", so it is also appropriate that the sword image is a tree.
If it is a sword elephant, then this big tree is probably beyond its own physical properties and can basically do whatever it wants.
Tang Zhao shook his head and said, "Maybe the flames are not good enough?"
Just now we started the fire, using high temperature and the smell of alcohol, that is, ordinary fire. Maybe we should use a better flame.
Tang Zhao reached out and took out a short sword. The sword was more than a foot long, and the blade seemed to be burning with flames.
"Ah... isn't this?" Deputy Chi was surprised and reached out to touch his evidence bag.
Tang Zhao said: "Well, it's the Lihuo Sword. It's the magic weapon of that sword."
It is a coincidence that Tang Zhao had this magical weapon for so many years, but he never thought that the real sword had a swordsman, and he was also a turtle bandit.
When he saw the Suzaku pressing to the ground from a distance, Tang Zhao felt that it looked familiar. He remembered that he had also released the Trumpet of Will in the Taoist temple on the mountain. He guessed that the red-haired one had the one he had hoped for before.
The sword. Finally, I took Zhou Chengzhi down and saw that it was really the Lihuo Sword.
The Zhenli Fire Sword is twice as long as the magic weapon, close to the length of an ordinary sword, but the fire energy contained in it is exactly the same as the Lihuo Magic weapon. Gui Kou was quite creative, and even equipped the young Shangzhuguo with an ancient sword.
.
Deputy Chi touched the bag. The sword of the red-haired Shang Zhuguo was now lying quietly in the evidence bag. Because its swordsman was still alive, it was not dim. You could still see the flame-like lines on it, and said
: "It's a pity that you already have a sword. Otherwise, this sword would be suitable for you."
Tang Zhao smiled. He no longer cared about it. Not to mention that he already had the most suitable sword. Even if he had this precious Lihuo sword in his hands for many years, he would rarely have the opportunity to use it with his true form.
When they appear, they are all trying to hold the Yanggu Sword. The sun is a star and will last forever. How can it be compared to a mere fire?
But today is an exception, Lihuo Sword reappears.
"Swordsmanship - Suzaku Fire!"
Suzaku reappears!
The scarlet divine bird dragged its long flaming tail, emitted a sweet phoenix cry, and suddenly crashed into the towering tree, almost instantly engulfing the tree in flames.
call--
Golden-red flames soared into the sky, covering a large section of the tree trunk in an instant. Countless leaves were scorched black and curled in the flames, and then withered and fell.
efficient!
In the mist, the two swordsmen finally felt something and looked down at the same time.
Seen from the sky, the flames were still spreading upwards like a fire tube. Not only was the big tree swallowed, but also the iron rope attached to it felt the burning. The two were surprised at the same time - they actually felt the burning outside the other party.
A hint of threat.
"Damn you little thief -" Shang Zhuguo was about to swing down his sword when he heard a "hey" from the other side, but it was the young swordsman who had been confronting him for a long time who looked at him.
The two of them are now in a highly tense confrontation. Although they are not covered with Gang Qi like Sanren, their sword energy is flowing at a high speed, supporting their sword skills and defending themselves. If there is a slight difference, the other party will take advantage of it. Therefore, Xing
He warned the other party clearly that he would take action, and Lao Shangzhu Guo did not dare to move.
But he can still use his swordsmanship without moving his body.
You can see that starting from the top of the giant tree, the bark of the tree sheds one layer downwards like a snake shedding its skin, and the bark is bifurcated, as if countless petals are hanging upside down.
The petal-like bark quickly peeled downwards, as did the bark that was being burned by the flames. The bark that had separated from the trunk seemed to be wrapped and rolled, completely wrapping the flames inside, making it airtight. In the blink of an eye, that
The seemingly arrogant Li Huo was rolled up and thrown aside.
Nothing is left.
To be honest, Tang Zhao was a little dumbfounded.
His Lihuo is not unpowerful. In order to cause damage to the swordsman, he also used all his strength to attack. Suzaku was stronger than the first time he used it. He also had the advantage of attribute restraint. Unexpectedly, the opponent didn't even blink.
It was dealt with easily.
This is the difference between the swordsmanship used by swordsmen and the swordsmanship used in magic weapons.
No matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it is only a tool to preserve the swordsmanship. It can only reproduce the swordsmanship in a rigid manner, and it is difficult to change it at will. It seems more powerful and flexible than the magic weapon, and can even be easily manipulated, but it is still a dead thing.
If the technique on the instrument is a trace of swordsmanship, a photo, then the technique on the instrument is a video of swordsmanship. The people in the video look alive, but it is just a repetition, not a video.
There is real life.
This is why even if there is abundant energy, it is still difficult for a mortal holding a variety of magic weapons to compete with a swordsman. And it is difficult for a swordsman holding a magic weapon to truly fight against a swordsman.
It was only after Tang Zhao became a swordsman that he discovered that the way he used to wield the weapon was very rigid, too much like a mortal fighting with a magic weapon, which was a waste of natural resources. In other words, the sword in the sword manual was too powerful and the realm was crushed.
Sword Immortal, the Sword Master's sword can suppress the swordsman by force, so he can win by chance. If he combines his experience as a swordsman and thinks about overturning his own fighting mode. If he is asked to hold the Yanggu Sword and Kun Sword now, he should be able to easily
Kill your original self instantly.
Now he is more convinced that even with a swordsman's thinking, the swordsmanship of using those famous swords is too crude. He wants to truly achieve the state of one sword as much as a hundred swords through "simulation", so that the original fairy swords and holy swords can come back to the world.
,there's still a long way to go.
The only thing that is more convenient now is that after becoming a swordsman, his body has undergone a transformation and he can already wield the sword while imitating it.
Is it possible to suppress the swordsman with sword power, just like suppressing the swordsman with sword technique?
Seeing several rolls of bark-wrapped flames falling on the ground, Tang Zhao and Deputy Chi immediately moved away quickly. These fires had not been extinguished yet. Who knew whether the bark rolls would be like jars, able to preserve the flames for a long time until they were used as weapons and smashed on the ground?
On top of them. In fact, the best way is to use great force to kick these trees into the surrounding forest fires, and simply burn them clean. However, the risk of this contact action is too high, and Tang Zhao and Deputy Commander Chi do not dare to act rashly.
, had no choice but to escape by himself.
But then, Tang Zhao realized something was wrong.
Buzz——
Is there any sound, vibrating?
The vibration produced a buzzing sound. Although it was very small, the frequency was extremely high, which was so piercing that it made people's ears numb.
The sound seemed very close and yet very far away, separated by a thick barrier...
Under the ground!
Tang Zhao felt numb in his heart, jumped up almost instantly, and almost somersaulted into the forest fire.
Buzz——
A huge ugly insect emerged from the soil and slammed into Tang Zhao.
Tang Zhao turned around almost in the blink of an eye and looked at the body of the insect that passed by. The insect was bigger than Tang Zhao's body.
What the hell?
At a glance, Tang Zhao saw that there was another one on Deputy Commander Chi's side. It was as ugly as the one on his side. It had a withered yellow body and looked like a larvae. It was much uglier than ordinary flesh worms. It brushed against the two sides.
The person did not look back and hung directly on the tree, forming a pupa.
Not only the two of them, but also many insects crawled out of the soil and clung to the branches of the giant tree that had just shed its skin.
In the blink of an eye, a pupa as big as a human body hung on the giant tree.
"That's -" Tang Zhao's scalp went numb when he saw it, "Is it a demon? No, it doesn't look like it. Instead, it's something like a tree..."
Suddenly, there was a soft cracking sound.
A black slit opened on the back of those pupae.
Countless ugly heads with compound eyes protruded from the pupae, staring at Tang Zhao and the others from all directions.
Followed by a green body and wrinkled wings.
"In the soil...on summer days...there are singing cicadas!"
