In the forest, Shi Mu moved forward slowly, looking around from time to time.
The deeper you go into the forest, the bigger the trees around you become. There are many big trees that can be hugged by several people. They don’t know how many hundreds of years they have been growing.
The forest here has no trace of human activities and has a primitive style. Due to the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, there are also many kinds of spiritual grass and spiritual materials.
Shi Mu advanced for only half an hour and already found two or three spiritual plants with good spiritual power.
In contrast, there are also many poisonous insects and strange beasts in the forest. He has been attacked two or three times. Although for him now, he can solve it with just a few moves, but there is no guarantee that the one that appears next time will not be something he cannot match.
Shi Mu moved forward cautiously, guarding against dangers that might appear at any time around him.
Cai'er seemed to be a little too excited, and she didn't know where she was flying at this moment. Fortunately, there was a glimmer in her mind that let each other know that they were safe.
Shi Mu jumped over a dead tree that fell to the ground, his eyes suddenly condensed, revealing a look of great joy.
In a shady place not far ahead, two small blue grasses grew, only four or five inches tall, and their leaves emitted bursts of blue light.
"Blueweed!"
Shi Mu hurriedly walked over. This kind of blue grass is considered a rare spiritual grass. It can be used to refine several water-based elixirs and is quite valuable.
He carefully collected the two bluegrasses. At this moment, a scream came from the front.
"Stone, help!"
Cai'er shouted and flew over from the dense forest in front with a "swish" sound, flying towards Shi Mu's location as hard as she could.
boom!
The dense forest behind it was torn apart by a strong wind, and smaller plants were directly crushed or uprooted.
Several large dark blue birds chased after her, making loud noises, and the target was clearly Cai'er.
Shi Mu was shocked. These green ferocious birds were three to four feet in size. Their mouths had sharp teeth like beasts, and their bodies exuded waves of demonic aura. They were all demonic beasts with innate strength.
He didn't have time to think about how Cai'er provoked these guys. Without saying a word, he turned over his hand and took out the Sky-breaking Bow and the Eagle's Tail Arrow.
The blue light shines brightly on the bow body, and the full moon appears as if the bow is holding a full blue moon.
Whoosh!
A black arrow flashed, like black lightning flashing at an incredible speed.
The neck of a green vicious bird was instantly pierced by black light, and blood spattered. Its huge body fell heavily to the ground, and it lost its breath for an instant. The inertia made it rush forward for a long distance, and after destroying a large piece of plants,
Then he looked and stopped.
Whoosh!
A flash of black light flashed, and another green vicious bird was hit in the chest and fell down.
Two companions were killed in succession, and the green ferocious birds immediately let out frightened cries and flew high into the sky, daring not to approach Shi Mu again.
Shi Mu gently stroked the bow body, with a trace of satisfaction on his face.
After the Sky-Breaking Bow advanced, its power was indeed greatly increased. When combined with the Eagle Tail Arrow, which is also a high-level magic weapon, it was enough to threaten ordinary earth-level beings. It had already first shown its power when fighting against the earth-level Taoist priest of the Tongtian Immortal Sect.
He looked at several cyan ferocious birds hovering in the air. From this distance, if he wanted to, with the blessing of his spiritual eyes, he was 90% sure that he could shoot them down.
Several ferocious birds in the air seemed to sense the murderous intent in Shi Mu's eyes. They whined a few times, turned around and fled into the distance. After a few breaths, they disappeared into the distance.
"These birds are quite sensitive to murderous intent." Shi Mu put away the sky-breaking bow and put back the two eagle tail arrows.
Several of the eagle's tail arrows were lost during the battle in the sea, and now there is no way to replenish them, so they must be used rare.
"Huh... It's so dangerous. There are still rocks. We are finally saved!" Cai'er landed on Shi Mu's shoulder, looking frightened.
"Tell me, how did you provoke these ferocious birds?" Shi Mu looked at Cai'er and said.
"I didn't do anything, but I was unlucky enough to run into these flat-haired beasts and almost get eaten by them!" Cai'er shouted angrily.
"You are also a flat-haired beast..."
Shi Mu was speechless, then shook his head and walked to the corpses of the two green vicious birds.
He looked at the two ferocious birds, took out the beast soul bag, and fired a red light. The beast soul bag suddenly issued a suction force, and two groups of cyan beast souls flew out and flew into the beast soul bag.
"Hmph! You deserve it if you want to eat me!" Cai'er gloated and shouted.
Shi Mu glanced in the direction where those ferocious birds were flying away, and frowned slightly.
"Xihe Continent seems to be full of dangers. You can encounter these innate-level monsters at any time. You'd better not stay too far away from me in the future. Otherwise, if you encounter another monster attack, I may not be able to save you in time.
." He said.
"I know." Cai'er nodded honestly.
Shi Mu turned over his hand and took out the old map of Xihe Continent, and then shook his head. This map was too simple, and he had not encountered any very special terrain so far. He only knew that if he followed the previous sailing route of the giant ship in the vast sea, he should be in
Landing in the eastern part of the mainland, but now it is impossible to determine the specific location on the map at this moment.
He put the map away and continued walking westward.
Now we can only move on, hoping to meet some local people from Xihe Continent or people from the Mingyue Western Sect, and maybe get a more detailed map and reach Lingtian Peak as soon as possible.
After one day**.
Shi Mu was still moving forward in the forest. The area of this forest seemed to be astonishingly large. He calculated in his mind that he had advanced hundreds of miles, but he still didn't feel like he was going out.
After a while, he sat down under a big tree and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't really encounter any danger along the way, the constant small-scale battles made him feel a little tired.
"Then I'll go find something to eat nearby." Cai'er, who was lying on Shi Mu's shoulder, suddenly became energetic and flapped her wings to fly out.
"Don't run too far." Shi Mu said.
"I know." Cai'er's figure quickly disappeared into the dense forest.
Shi Mu shook his head and sat down cross-legged.
After a while, a slightly panicked sound of flapping wings came, and he opened his eyes.
"Cai'er, have you caused trouble again?" Shi Mu stood up.
"No! Look at this, Stone." Cai'er flew down and grabbed a fist-sized red fruit in her paws. It looked like a peach, but it exuded a flame-like color.
"This is..." Shi Mu opened his eyes slightly and took it.
The red fruit tentacles actually felt hot, as if they were holding a piece of live coals.
He took a second look and saw that the fruit gave off a sweet smell and did not look poisonous.
Moreover, Cai'er's eyesight is now astonishing, and she has the ability to recognize poisons, so she will not pick poisonous fruits.
This fruit exudes a feeling that makes Shi Mu intoxicated.
Shi Mu hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and took a bite.
The red peach flesh melts in your mouth, turning into a fiery sweet current and melting into Shi Mu's body.
The true energy in the Dantian area of his body was tumbling, and there was a faint tendency to increase.
Shi Mu opened his eyes, and then swallowed the peach in three mouthfuls. The true energy in his body increased a bit, almost equivalent to the effect of practicing in the Fire Spirit Land for several days.
His face suddenly looked overjoyed.
"Cai'er, are there any fruits like this out there?" he asked.
"Yes, right in front." Cai'er said.
"Okay, take me there quickly." Shi Mu said immediately, his eyes excited.
Under Cai'er's guidance, Shi Mu quickly arrived at a valley, where the temperature in the air immediately became much higher and the rocks turned light red.
"The land of fire spirits?"
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows, but he soon discovered that this was not the case here. Instead, there seemed to be a vein of fire spirit minerals in the valley, so this fire attribute spirit fruit could grow.
After walking a few steps into the valley, a strange crimson tree appeared in front of me. Its entire body was red, and even its leaves seemed to be burning.
There are more than a dozen bright red fruits among the leaves, which are the same as those Cai'er just brought back.
Shi Mu was overjoyed and was about to approach the crimson tree. At this moment, the ground suddenly exploded and a green vine came out of the ground and wrapped around Shi Mu's legs.
Shi Mu was startled. When he stepped down, his body shot out and landed several feet away.
The ground exploded continuously, and a green humanoid figure about ten feet tall emerged.
"What is this?"
Shi Mu was startled. This cyan thing had a head similar to that of a human being, with complete facial features, and even green curly hair on its head. However, its skin had bark-like textures, and its hands and feet were like tree roots.
s things.
"Barbarian? No, I can feel the aura of the Ming Yue Sect on you..." The tree-like man spoke, making a dry sound like iron scraping.
"Can you talk?" Shi Mu's face was filled with joy, as he finally met a creature that could communicate.
"Who are you? Are you a companion of those people inside?" the tree man said.
"The people inside?" Shi Mu's eyes lit up and he looked at Cai'er.
"I didn't go in just now, so I don't know what's going on inside." Cai'er shook her head quickly.
"No matter who you are, if you try to mess with the Huoyuan Taoguo, you will die!" The tree man roared angrily, waved his hands, and the thick roots of the tree glowed with green light, and he drew it towards Shi Mu.
"Wait, don't do anything yet, I still have something to ask you." Shi Mu dodged and said.
The tree man ignored it at all, waving his hands, green shadows surged towards Shi Mu from all directions like waves.
This tree man may seem clumsy, but its strength is no worse than those of the innate monsters, and its attack method is even more special. It can also launch attacks from the ground. If Shi Mu could not use his spiritual consciousness to explore the surroundings, he would almost be injured.
He dodged a green sharp hardwood thorn that came out of the ground. Shi Mu's face turned cold. He waved one hand and a golden light shot out. It grew to about ten feet in size and a huge sword struck at the tree man's head.
Down.
The tree man was horrified. With a wave of his hands, there was a rumble from the ground, and several vines came out and quickly entangled themselves into a green vine wall, blocking it in front of him.
It's just that the golden giant sword was as powerful as breaking bamboo, easily splitting the wooden wall.
There was a soft "click" sound, and the golden giant sword struck the tree man's shoulder, splitting the tree man's body into two halves.
The tree man let out a scream, and green liquid spewed from the wound. He struggled twice and lost his breath.
"Stone, what is this?"
Cai'er flew over and looked curiously at the tree man's corpse on the ground.
"It seems to be a special kind of monster. I think it's probably a tree demon." Shi Mu waved his hand to recall the money sword and said. (To be continued.)
