Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 136: Strange Tree
"Blind spots on the map are not necessarily bad things. At least the chances of finding undiscovered Yuanling Stones are much greater." The strange terrain of the ancient immortal battlefield inexplicably interested Wang Chen. He randomly chose a direction and walked into the depths.
The Six Paths Sword Qi has an innate inhibitory effect on evil creatures such as ghosts and corpses, and the ancestral energy is not afraid of miasma. For him, looking for opportunities in the ancient immortal battlefield is like a fish in water, which is perfect for him.
The three of them walked for a while, leaving a trail of messy footprints on the ground. Wang Chen stopped and swung out a sword.
A crack appeared in the ground, revealing a rotten corpse.
Ye Jiu's eyes lit up and he ran over excitedly to investigate.
This was indeed the corpse of an ancient immortal. Only the white bones were left. Even the immortal sword held in the hands of the bones had decayed into debris on the ground.
"No storage ring." Ye Jiu was a little disappointed.
In the final analysis, Yuanling Stone is extremely rare in the current cultivation world, but in the ancient immortal era, Yuanling Stone was equivalent to ordinary spirit stone today, so it was often stored in storage magic weapons by ancient cultivators.
Along the way, Wang Chen dug out several ancient immortal bones, but strangely, he didn't get a single storage bag.
However, Ye Jiu's excitement did not diminish at all. He and Chen Hai had no idea how Wang Chen discovered the bones underground.
You must know that these bones have merged with the breath of the earth over thousands of years, and spiritual consciousness cannot sweep them out at all.
If we can find something buried underground, this trip will definitely be a great gain.
After a while, the number of dead trees in front of me gradually increased, like a large dead forest for unknown reason.
jingle .....
It seemed as if the sound of wind chimes was coming.
Through the cold smoke, a thick tree can be seen slowly appearing in sight.
The big tree is full of greenery and luxuriant branches and leaves, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding dead branches and rotten forest. There is also a faint fragrance wafting from it.
"Could this be some kind of precious tree?" Chen Hai's eyes lit up and he was about to get closer.
Suddenly, the strange fragrance changed and instantly turned into a pungent stench.
This sudden change caught him off guard.
"Wuwuwu~~" A creepy crying sound suddenly came.
The green leaves of the big tree withered and turned into powder at the same time, and it instantly turned into a lifeless dead tree. On the branches, there were rotting corpses hanging.
As the crying sounded, the hanging corpses turned their heads like wind chimes blown by the wind, staring at the three people with bright green eyes, and suddenly pounced on them as if they were weightless.
Ye Jiu and Chen Hai heard the piercing crying sound. When they saw the disgusting undead, they were horrified. They shouted loudly and took out their magic weapons, but they felt their feet tighten.
Looking down, they saw pale arms suddenly stretched out from the soft soil beneath their feet and tied their feet tightly.
Roar! The snow-white sword in Ye Jiu's hand roared like a dragon. He slashed at the arm on the ground with his sword, but the arm was like a leek. After he cut it off with his sword, more of it stretched out, slowly spreading and climbing, covering half of his body.
Ye Jiu's true strength surged and he shouted loudly. A white dragon shadow rose into the air with his feet as its center, like a whirlwind of sharp blades, shattering the arms around him.
All I could hear was the whistling of the wind. When I looked at Chen Hai again, he had already swung the nine-toothed rake in his hand and smashed it down hard.
boom!
The soft muddy land collapsed in an instant, revealing a huge hole.
The two men got rid of the arms and flew into the air, but they saw a flash of golden light before their eyes. Countless golden swords emerged from the void, blasting all the evil spirits with one sword.
In the blink of an eye, golden light rose again, and a huge sword energy came down with a bang.
The strange tree seemed to know how powerful it was. Amid the cries of ghosts, countless resentful spirits condensed into a wall, trying to protect the tree, but they were unable to stop the terrifying sword energy at all.
A dull sound like the sound of chopping wood was heard.
The dead tree was split into two halves.
Along with green smoke, it made a shrill sound, like crying and howling, and it fell silent after a while.
"You are Ji Ba!" Chen Hai blurted out with his eyes wide open, finally recognizing Wang Chen who had beaten him up.
After being shocked, he realized how dare he call Wang Chen by his nickname, and quickly changed his words with a smile: "Brother Ji, it is a great honor for Ye Jiu to invite you to come."
Wang Chen secretly laughed, but he didn't know how this fat and simple-minded guy could be so smooth-talking.
Only then did the three of them see clearly that the ground that was collapsed by Chen Hai revealed countless white corpses with painful expressions, stuck in the black soil like planted radishes.
Ye Jiu didn't feel disgusted and wanted to go down to see if there was a storage bag, but he found nothing.
In just this short period of time, the dead tree slowly turned into a pool of black ash like the green smoke, and a large hole appeared under the tree, which continuously spewed out green miasma.
The three of them walked over and saw that the hole was bottomless.
Ye Jiu frowned, looked at the cave entrance for a long time and sighed: "I heard that there are extremely rare relics in the ancient battlefield. I am afraid there is another world in this cave, but the miasma is too thick. Any anti-poison items are useless. If it is a hall master, maybe he can find out what's going on. Alas, what a pity!"
There was endless regret in his tone.
Chen Hai nodded.
The miasma in the ancient immortal battlefield is very strange. If it is thick enough, even the sect leaders have to act with caution. Although they are Nirvana geniuses, they are still far inferior to the sect leaders.
"You stay here and don't move. I'll go down and see if there are any oranges." Wang Chen said as he looked at the cave where miasma was coming out.
The two of them called him by his nickname every day in a very affectionate manner, and he felt no guilt in washing them together.
Just now he vaguely felt a strange energy, which quietly retreated when he killed the strange tree. It was very likely that it was the existence that controlled the strange tree, which meant that there must be something intelligent in it.
In a mysterious place like the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, he didn't want to miss any opportunity.
"The miasma is so thick, why are you looking for oranges? Or..." Ye Jiu and Chen Hai were still trying to dissuade him, but they were stunned as they watched Wang Chen jump into the cave.
"Is Ji Ba too arrogant? This is the miasma of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield. I don't think even my father would dare to jump down like this. Do you think he will turn into a smoked chicken in a while?"
Chen Hai blinked his eyes and looked at Ye Jiu blankly.
"Bang." Ye Jiu kicked him, "Do you think this miasma can block out sound? Are you stupid?!"
"How can the miasma be soundproof?" Chen Hai still didn't understand why Ye Jiu kicked him.
“…”
As Wang Chen fell down on the Six Paths Sword, he could hear the whistling wind in his ears. The deeper he went into the cave, the thicker the miasma became and he could hardly see anything.
The biting cold poison mixed in with the miasma tried to invade his body, but it was all dissipated by the ancestral energy in his body.
In just a few breaths, he had reached the bottom of the cave.
There was a dark passage at the bottom. Looking at the direction it extended in, it was exactly the direction where he sensed that the strange energy receded, but he didn't know where it led to.
