Mu Yi went all the way deep into the peach blossom forest, but the lightning-struck peach tree he found last time was gone. Although there was still a peach tree in the same place, it was definitely not the one he saw last time.
Mu Yi stood there, concentrating, and the memories in his mind were turning. Pictures flashed by, and he looked around. Finally, he was sure that he was not looking in the wrong place. The lightning-struck peach tree he saw here last time was nowhere to be seen.
, it can only be said that Taolin has changed.
At this time, he also noticed that something seemed to be wandering underground, and the peach blossoms were trembling slightly, or in other words, scared.
I thought that the disappearance of the peach tree struck by lightning might have something to do with the things underground.
"What kind of evildoer, why don't you reveal your true form soon?" Mu Yi's eyes widened, and he exuded a majestic aura. The peach trees around him seemed to be shaken, and the peach blossoms fell to the ground.
It seemed that Mu Yi's whereabouts had been broken, and the thing underground finally stopped covering up. Suddenly, the ground heaved and rumbled, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
Mu Yi did not dare to be careless and was on alert. This underground thing should not be underestimated.
Finally, three feet away from Mu Yi, the ground exploded, and something broke through the ground and was revealed.
"This is..." Mu Yi looked at the object and frowned slightly, even more surprised.
To be precise, what is in front of me is a human-shaped tree root with a head, body, and limbs, but no facial features. It just looks like a person.
"Tree demon?" Mu Yi looked at the tree man in front of him. Although he knew that there were demons and monsters in the world, this was the first time he saw a tree demon. And at first sight, he was quite surprised. Originally, in his mind, the tree demon was
It can take shape directly and is not easily noticed when hidden in the human world.
Now it seems that this is a big mistake. The tree demon in front of him gives him a vague feeling of danger, which is enough to show that it is powerful. However, the opponent has not yet transformed, so the difficulty of transforming is obvious. No wonder people in the world often call people with ugly faces
Being a monster, maybe this is what monsters are like, just because it is difficult to transform into a human form. Even if they barely have a human form, they are still very different from ordinary people and can be distinguished at a glance.
As for the legendary fox demon repaying a favor, it is probably mostly made up by scholars, or with the help of some secret method.
If a ghost wants to stay in the world, it has to pay an unimaginable price. How can it be easy for a monster to transform? This is something that violates the rules of heaven and earth and must be extremely difficult.
However, in comparison, it is undoubtedly more difficult for trees, flowers and plants to transform than animals.
"die!"
Suddenly, the tree demon pointed at Mu Yi and finally let out a roar. Although he couldn't hear clearly what it said, his intuition told Mu Yi that it was the word "death".
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yi felt countless tree roots suddenly emerge from under his feet and wrap around his legs. At the same time, there were tree roots from behind that turned into sharp arrows and shot towards his back.
"open!"
Mu Yi's voice was like a thunderbolt, and the Taoist robes on his body suddenly swelled, and a force of energy spread out around him. The tree roots under his feet were shattered almost at the same time, and the tree roots in the back were broken before they could be touched.
"For the sake of your difficulty, hand over the lightning strike wood and I will spare your life." Mu Yi looked at the tree demon and said.
"Roar!"
The tree demon roared again, and Mu Yi felt the vibrations under his feet become more violent. Then countless tree roots broke out from the ground around him, forming a cage in an instant, covering him in the middle, and began to shrink rapidly, trying to trap Mu Yi to death.
inside.
"snort!"
Seeing this, Mu Yi snorted coldly in his heart, and a layer of light blue flames suddenly bloomed from his body. Now he has become more and more comfortable in controlling the lamp, and it only takes a thought to activate Nanming Lihuo.
"squeak!"
Nanminglihuo is so domineering. Even though these tree roots are as hard as iron, facing Nanminglihuo, they still burn like fire meeting oil. Moreover, the tree demon also made a sharp cry. Obviously, these tree roots are as strong as fire.
It is one and can feel pain.
As soon as Nanming Lihuo came out, the cage was broken, and Mu Yi stepped out and punched out.
Although Mu Yi still has the Five Thunder Talisman, this place is too close to Cangzhou City. Ordinary people may not be able to hear the movement, but it is impossible to hide it from those top experts. The lightning-struck tree has not yet been obtained, so it is not appropriate to alert the snake.
What's more, after Mu Yi understood the meaning of the fist, his movements were extremely powerful. With the intention of the fist alone, Mu Yi could occupy a place in the world, and no one dared to underestimate him.
Seeing this, the tree demon also raised his hand, as if he wanted to resist, but at this moment, a pressure came on it, making its movements stagnant. Taking this opportunity, Mu Yi's fist had already imprinted on it.
its chest.
"boom!"
The tree demon flew directly backwards, with a fist mark clearly printed on its chest, and even with the fist mark as the center, there were dense cracks around it.
Mu Yi suppressed the opponent with his fist and punched, but felt as if his fist landed on an iron plate. Although his strength was greatly increased now, he could not penetrate the thick iron plate with one punch and could only leave a punch mark.
.
Although it was just a punch, the tree demon was severely injured directly. Fighting with people was not what it was best at. This time it completely realized its power. After landing, its body sank directly into the ground and disappeared.
When the tree demon sank into the ground, the entire peach forest began to move, with branches twitching and peach blossoms flying.
"Click, click!"
At this time, there was a strange sound coming from the ground, each earth bag arched, and then countless arms stretched out, but these arms were all white bones.
In an instant, the peach forest was filled with skeletons. These skeletons moved like normal people and rushed towards Mu Yi like a tide.
Mu Yi frowned, and now he finally understood where the people who died in the peach forest had gone. He originally thought that the bones had been taken away, but unexpectedly they all became nutrients for the tree demon. If it could achieve what it has today, it would probably be the same as Devouring
So much flesh and blood has a lot to do with it.
It can even control skeletons. Although these skeletons are not much stronger than ordinary people, there are too many of them, and they are not afraid of death.
Of course, Mu Yi would not hesitate. The Time Bamboo kept knocking, and all the skeletons within a foot of him had their heads smashed and fell in front of Mu Yi.
Behind the tide of skeletons, tree roots sneak up from time to time.
Mu Yi's mental strength was all around him, so he was not afraid of sneak attacks. However, if it continued like this, he would inevitably get bored. So later, Mu Yi simply looked for a place with thick roots of his tree. Every time he stamped his foot, the surrounding people would be shocked.
A piece of it collapsed.
Mu Yi was as fast as the wind, and the skeletons couldn't catch up with him. Even because he kept wandering, the skeletons were in chaos. Later, the tree demon obviously gave up controlling the skeletons and focused on fighting Mu Yi underground. After a lot of effort,
, the entire peach forest became unrecognizable, and all the peach blossoms on the trees withered, looking full of loneliness.
But after visiting the entire peach grove, Mu Yi still found no trace of the lightning-struck peach tree. It was obviously hidden by the tree demon. If Mu Yi wanted to find it, he would have to turn the entire peach orchard over or kill the tree demon.
Can.
It's just that the tree demon has been hiding underground since it suffered a loss, and will not come out no matter how hard Mu Yi forces it.
Although Mu Yi had the strength to suppress the tree demon, he could not really kill the tree demon through the thick earth. For a while, he could only stand there in a stalemate.
Time continues to pass, the moon disappears, and a ray of bright white appears in the eastern sky. It will not be long before the sky is bright. I believe that during the day, the tree demon will definitely hide and never come out again. If this opportunity is missed, Mu Yi will
If I want to find the lightning-struck peach wood again, I don’t know how long it will take.
This kind of opportunity doesn't come around all the time, and his time is limited, two days at most, so he must get the Lightning Strike Taomu as soon as possible.
"Dryad, I know you can understand me. Hand over the lightning-struck peach tree and I will leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for burning down your entire peach orchard." Mu Yi made a move with his right hand, and the lamp appeared out of thin air in his hand.
A light blue flame burned quietly.
As the lamp appeared, the surrounding air suddenly became hot. Apparently, Mu Yi also became ruthless and wanted to force the tree demon.
It's just that if you do this, it will inevitably be noticed by others, but at this time, Mu Yi obviously can't care so much anymore. Even if he attracts the masters from Cangzhou City, it doesn't matter. It's just a battle.
After Mu Yi finished speaking, the roar of the tree demon came from the ground. Judging from its meaning, it was clearly a rejection, but this is normal. Even if the tree demon has a certain degree of wisdom, its wisdom is still far behind that of humans. Mu Yi
It is absolutely impossible to strike a peach tree with lightning.
"In this case, don't blame me." Mu Yi took a deep breath, then opened his mouth and blew, and saw the flames of the lamp swelled up when exposed to the wind, and instantly turned into a fire dragon, which fell into the peach garden under Mu Yi's control.
.
When Nanming Lihuo encountered peach trees, they immediately burst into flames. One peach tree after another was buried in the sea of fire and gradually turned into ashes. The fire burned bigger and bigger, as if it would not burn the entire peach orchard.
The attitude of not giving up.
The tree demon was obviously a little panicked when he saw this, and kept drilling out tree roots from the ground, trying to put out the fire. Unfortunately, what it encountered was Nanmingli Fire, not ordinary ordinary fire. Even if its roots encountered it, it would
It burned immediately, so its actions were doomed to be in vain.
This tree demon is not weak, and there are still many methods that have not been used. For example, Peach Blossom Miasma is one of them. After all, Mu Yi can hold his breath for a period of time, but he cannot not breathe for a long time. But Mu Yi has Nanming Lihuo, innate
All wood attributes are restrained, whether it is a tree demon or a peach blossom miasma, it will be restrained by Nanming Lihuo.
So at this moment, the tree demon can only watch the sea of fire continue to swallow the peach forest. Although it has initially transformed into a demon, its body is still a peach tree. It is difficult to leave the peach forest, and once it is far away, its strength will plummet rapidly. It can be said that this
Peach forest is its lifeblood.
Mu Yi stood there and watched with cold eyes. No matter how sneakily the tree demon attacked, it could not hurt him. Moreover, he believed that as time went by, the tree demon would definitely be the first to be unable to hold on. (To be continued)
