"Could it be that the corpse nests elsewhere were destroyed and all the surviving tree corpses were moved here?" Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask after hearing what Li Qiye said.
Li Qiye smiled, shook his head, and said: "The nests of tree corpses are not easy to discover, and it is even more impossible to say that a large number of corpse nests were discovered or even breached at once. Unless the Immortal Emperor Legion is as powerful as this
existence, otherwise, even the ordinary Imperial Immortal Sect would not be able to attack a large number of corpse nests in Shenshu Ridge in one fell swoop."
"Could it be that there is a great treasure in this valley, so many tree corpses came here from other places." Ye Xiaoxiao thought of another possibility, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he said excitedly: "
Didn't you say that tree corpses usually live around elixirs? Now that so many tree corpses have come here, maybe there is elixir in this valley."
"You are thinking too much." Li Qiye smiled and flicked Ye Xiaoyao's nose, and said: "Even if there is an elixir in Shenshu Ridge, it does not necessarily mean that the elixir is willing to live with the tree corpse. Even if the elixir is willing to live with the tree corpse,
If the tree corpses live together, I am afraid that the extremely powerful tree corpse will have already taken the lead, and it is impossible for the other tree corpses to get involved."
"What's the reason? Why are there so many tree corpses rushing into this valley?" Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel disappointed when Li Qiye poured a bucket of cold water on him.
"We'll find out later when we go in. Look, isn't someone about to attack? Let's see how they die." Li Qiye looked at the valley, showing a faint smile and said.
In fact, the monks who were ambushing outside the valley at this time were also very curious. They also felt strange when they saw so many tree corpses walking into the valley. Some monks Zhangsan were confused.
"Could it be that there is a fairy medicine in this valley that attracts a large number of tree corpses?" Some monks had the same idea as Ye Xiaoxiao and said excitedly.
"Elixir -" Upon hearing such a possibility, all the monks present could not help but perk up, and then couldn't help but become excited, their eyes brightened, and even became greedy, except that they did not covet it.
My mouth is watering.
"It is indeed possible. If it is not a fairy medicine, why are so many tree corpses here?" A monk couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "If it is really a fairy medicine, then we will make a fortune.
"
"Let's fight in." Another group of people reacted faster and shouted immediately. They were one step ahead of the others and rushed in from the mouth of the valley.
"Kill--" When the other monks saw someone rushing in first, they immediately roared and, not to be outdone, they also rushed in.
"Kill!" Suddenly, all the monks who were ambushing outside the valley stopped ambush. They all roared and rushed into the valley. Everyone rushed to be the first, not willing to be one step behind.
For any monk, the elixir is really too tempting. No matter who it is, if they really get the elixir, they will really make a fortune and rise to prominence.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." Just when the monks launched an attack on the valley, suddenly, long vines shot out from the ground, and some of these long vines rolled towards the monks like spiritual snakes.
, and some vines shot towards these monks like angry arrows.
At this time, the tree corpse in the valley also attacked these monks, and the power of the tree corpse should not be underestimated.
As Li Qiye said, although the tree corpses have no souls and are walking corpses, in this sacred tree ridge, the tree corpses are the favorites. They are protected by the sacred tree ridge, even if they have not practiced.
, however, their instincts are very powerful.
"Ah——" Suddenly, there were screams, and some monks were pierced by long vines shot out from the ground. When their bodies fell to the ground, seeds the size of sesame seeds were immediately drilled into their eyebrows.
"Kill -" Some people were shocked and frightened when they saw the corpse of their companion with seeds burrowed into their eyebrows, about to transform into a tree man. They roared and immediately destroyed the corpse of their companion.
"Ah -" screams sounded. At this time, many seeds as big as sesame seeds appeared on the ground. The blood of monks was stained on the seeds, which immediately caused the seeds to shoot towards the monks' eyebrows. Some monks
I couldn't avoid it for a moment, and the seed suddenly penetrated into my eyebrows.
The monk who had the seed burrowed into his brow suddenly fell to the ground and twitched, and the bones and joints in his body "clicked, clicked". At the same time, the scream of the cultivator resounded throughout the valley, making people shudder.
"This is too scary." Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but trembled when she saw a monk who had seeds penetrated into his body while he was still alive. There was no doubt that the seeds penetrated into his body before killing the monk.
"The more tree corpses there are, the more seeds there are, and the stronger and more ferocious it is. On the contrary, where tree people live, the seeds will not actively attack living people. They will only burrow after you die.
It’s between your eyebrows.” Li Qiye was not surprised by such things and said calmly.
"Hoo, ho, ho..." bursts of fire sounds sounded. At this time, a tree corpse opened its mouth and spat out fire, and the rolling fire rushed towards the monks.
Not only did some tree corpses spit out fire, but some tree corpses actually blocked all directions with ice. I heard bursts of "sizzling, sizzling, sizzling" sounds, and some monks were frozen by the ice.
Seeing some monks spitting out fiery fire, and some monks freezing all directions, Ye Xiaoxiao was a little dumbfounded and said to Li Qiye: "Didn't you say that the tree corpses can't practice? Now what kind of skills are they?
"
"No, this is instinct." Li Qiye shook his head with a smile and said: "They spit out fire or freeze in all directions. This is not because they have practiced any skills themselves, but because they have this instinct since they were born.
."
"How is this possible?" Ye Xiaoxiao was stunned. If a monk had such an instinct when he was born, wouldn't he be very powerful in the future?
"This must be attributed to their parents." Li Qiye said: "Because when the first generation of tree people transformed, they would leave more or less the marks of the monks during their lifetime. For example, some monks practiced a certain way during their lifetime.
A secret art of black ice, so when the first generation of tree people used its corpse to transform..."
"...When they gave birth to the second generation of tree people, they may have passed the monk's mark to the second generation of tree people, which also resulted in the second generation of tree people being born with the ability to freeze in all directions.
"
"So that's it." Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but murmured: "If the second generation of tree people really succeeded, wouldn't they be very powerful if they could practice."
"This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. Generally speaking, it does more harm than good." Li Qiye said lightly: "There is nothing to envy about things like this. Innate instinct may not necessarily be a good thing."
"Why do you say that?" Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be startled and said.
"It is precisely because the first-generation tree-man carries the mark of the host when he was alive, which is one of the reasons why the second-generation tree-man cannot succeed." Li Qiye said: "Even if the second-generation tree-man succeeds, he has a soul.
, even possessing instincts like freezing. But, this does not mean it is a good thing..."
"...Because this is a brand that belongs to other races, not their tree people. This reduces the wisdom of the second generation tree people to a certain extent." At this point, Li Qiye paused and then said:
"At the same time, because the second generation tree people are born with the mark of the host, even if they are the second generation, they can practice..."
"... However, they have a brand that does not belong to their own race, which will make them far away from their closeness to the Dao. Therefore, when they practice, their own Dao foundation will become complicated, and they may even easily go crazy.
."
Li Qiye can be said to have studied tree people for ages. He can be said to be the absolute authority in this field. Among the monks in the Nine Realms, no one knows tree people better than him.
"However, all races in the Tianling Realm also have intermarriage." Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but said: "Intermarriage between different races may not cause any problems, and it may even make the bloodline stronger. Just like the intermarriage between the human race and the Charming Spirit, this will have the opposite effect
It will make it easier for the enchanting bloodline to reproduce."
"Intermarriage is two different things." Li Qiye shook his head and said: "Intermarriage between two races is the fusion of the blood of two races, and the first generation of tree people relied on the transformation of corpses. They cannot be integrated except for them.
Brands outside their own race, so the marks left by the host do not belong to themselves, and the first generation of tree people cannot let such marks be integrated into their own bloodline."
"So that's it." Li Qiye's words gave Ye Xiaoxiao a deeper understanding of the tree people, which gave her a better understanding of the tree people.
"Ah -" screams echoed in the valley. At this time, the war in the valley had come to an end. These monks overestimated their own strength. Before they could enter the valley, their entire army was annihilated.
The tree people were killed, and after being killed, all the corpses transformed into the first generation of tree people.
"It's time for us to go in." When Li Qiye saw such a scene, he couldn't help but smile lightly and said, "Let's go in and see what they are doing."
In the blink of an eye, Li Qiye led Ye Xiaoxiao to the outside of the valley. When they stood outside the valley, the tree corpses in the valley were immediately hostile to them.
"I, should I make some preparations?" Ye Xiaoxiao saw so many tree corpses in the valley and couldn't help but said, "What if, if a seed burrows into the center of my eyebrows, it will be tragic."
Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel creepy, even disgusting, when he thought about the sight of living people transforming into the first-generation tree people.
"Don't worry, no matter how powerful the seed is, they won't dare to touch you." Li Qiye said with a smile: "You have the supreme bloodline. In this sacred tree ridge, no seed dares to touch you! Your bloodline will be absolutely
