A Sword Through the Nine Heavens Chapter 69: Someone in the tree
"How do we feel going back again?"
"Isn't this road straight? Why turn there?"
"Did we really go wrong?"
Along the way, two girls with no sense of direction kept asking and asking questions. In fact, it was not only them, but others also had questions. They obviously felt that they were always in a straight line, but they walked along and the promise made them turn. .
Kiha explained for Cheng Yan: "We have to determine the direction according to something when we walk. All we can see in this forest are trees, and these trees actually have many subtle differences. We think It’s a straight line, but it’s actually turned a long time ago."
As he walked, he touched the passing trees. At first, he didn't notice the abnormality of the trees. Now, every time he walks through a tree, his hand will be stroked on the trunk. The direction of the promise is right. These trees seem to move quietly, often inexplicably leading them away. If it weren't for the Sinan, I'm afraid they would have returned to the place long ago.
Youmen demons are proficient in the five-element formation, Qimen Dunjia, humans enter their main battlefield, it is too difficult to get out on their feet, the only way is to fly, and flying means you are in this forest There is no trace of the Yomon Demon Clan.
It's no wonder that the Eumon demon race has fought with humans for so long, and they will never truly become extinct. On their battlefield, it is really difficult for humans to completely eliminate them.
"Wait, I can smell lifelessness."
Kiha stopped suddenly, and he twitched his nose, an unknown premonition flooded his mind. It was a very strange feeling, he couldn't even accurately describe it, he would have this feeling inexplicably when a monster or a human died, but it was not so strong in the past.
"What is lifeless? What nonsense are you talking about?" Everyone stopped and stared at him strangely. No one knew what Kiyu meant by lifelessness.
Kiyu himself doesn't know, he only knows that the living people are alive, and the so-called death will be entangled in the dead. That kind of breath can't be explained by smell, it's just a sensitivity to life, something must be going on around here.
"Here!"
Muyu walked to the right, crossed a dirt pit, pushed away the branches blocking the road, and rounded a few big trees. A big locust tree appeared in front of them. The branches of this big locust tree are luxuriant, covering the sky and the sun, covering the surrounding area a little gloomy, only the mottled sunlight on the ground, it looks dim.
The branches of the locust tree are very thick, which is different from what is commonly seen. It is estimated that ten people can hold it hand in hand. Everyone has never seen such a thick locust tree, including the wood feather that is most familiar with plants.
"What a heavy smell of blood!" Gu Yitian's eyes shone with strange light.
The smell of blood!
When they heard these three words, everyone else immediately became cautious. Everyone hurriedly checked the surroundings, but no blood stains were seen around, not even traces of fighting.
"Why didn't I smell anything?" The Red Goose took a hard breath, not feeling the so-called **** smell.
"You have not experienced too many fights, and you have never seen real killings. You will not understand the **** smell." Gu Yitian slowly approached the huge locust tree, staring at him. It, that **** smell came from this tree.
Mu Yu was standing in front of the big tree at this moment. His hand slowly touched the big locust tree. Just as his consciousness sank into the big locust tree, his face suddenly changed involuntarily, and he quickly let go, horrified Uncertainly looked at this big locust tree.
"What's wrong?" Hao Yingjun asked strangely.
In his opinion, apart from its tall appearance and strong branches, this big locust tree has nothing to pay attention to. He can't smell the **** smell mentioned by Gu Yitian.
"No, nothing."
How can it be all right!
Kiba's breathing became a little bit rapid. The moment his palm touched the locust tree, he saw a scene that scared him. No matter who changed, without any sign, suddenly saw what Kiba was looking at. When it arrives, it will be frightened!
There is a man in the tree! A dead man!
That was a cultivator, and Mu Yu had met him because this person was also one of the forty people who came here this time. He forgot which sect this person came from, but this person was trapped in the branches of acacia tree!
The man's eyes were round, it seemed that he was about to bulge out, there was no blood on his face, his hands were tightly covering his neck, his expression was distorted, and his fear was abruptly written on his face. The whole body was squeezed, curled up unnaturally, and the whole body was covered with scarlet blood, which was shocking.
The thick branches of the locust tree wrapped him, leaving no extra space, as if this person was a handicraft, inlaid intact.
It's like making a bronze statue. You melt the copper and cast it on the mold. This person is just a mold, and the locust tree melts and wraps him in a perfect fit.
Kiha calmed down slowly. Has he ever seen such a scene? The locust tree swallowed the man and kept it as it was. If it weren't for his ability to control trees, he would not have noticed it. No human being can do this kind of thing, only the Muyoumen demon can do it!
And Kiba himself!
But how dare Kiba tell what he saw? If he speaks out, explain to others why he knows there is a dead person in this locust tree! He himself had an ambiguous relationship with the Eumon Demon Clan, and he couldn't explain it at this moment.
"The death breath you mentioned came out of this locust tree, right? The **** smell I smell also comes from this locust tree." Gu Yitian said next to him.
"Why does the tree smell of blood?" Xue'er walked over in a puzzled way and looked at the locust tree. She didn't notice any abnormality, and boldly reached out and touched the trunk.
Hao Yingjun drew out the flying sword with a "clam": "Then we chop it down and take a closer look?"
"This tree is so big, I don't know how long it has been for hundreds of years. It's a shame to cut it down." Red Goose said.
"Brother, what do you think?" Kiha tried to keep calm.
Acting Yan looked at Mu Yu's gaze, knowing Mu Yu for a long time, and each other's words and deeds can know what it means. He knew that Kiba had the ability to blend into trees, and Kiba's performance showed that the tree was weird, but it was only due to the ability to control trees, so Kiba did not say clearly.
He didn't guess what exactly made Kiba react so much.
"Since Gu Yitian, you said this tree has a **** smell, then we will cut it down and take a look."
I promise you can’t ask Kiyu directly. He has been with Kiyu for two years. He naturally knows what Kiyu means. Kiyu wants everyone to cut down this tree and let others know about it. What is the exception.
"Don't cut it off, this tree is so tall, it's not a good thing to fall down, let's peel off the bark slowly." Mu Yu said this to Cheng Yan.
Acceptance nodded, understanding. The flying sword in his hand had already moved towards the locust tree, everyone involuntarily backed away. The sword in the hands of Jin Danqi's Promise is extremely powerful. Even though the bark of the locust tree is hard, it is as vulnerable as tofu under the Promise Sword.
Everyone held their breath and watched Cheng Yan carefully cut the bark, piece by piece. Everyone was nervous for fear that a monster would suddenly emerge from the locust tree trunk.
There were more and more sawdust on the ground, and he did not dare to cut too much at once. Slowly, he cut nearly a third of the thick branches.
"Wait!"
Kiba felt wrong. The person he saw just now was on the periphery of the tree trunk and had not been filled so deeply. It should have already appeared to the extent of the promised cut.
"What's wrong?" The promise stopped.
Kiyu calmed down, stepped forward, touched the locust tree again with his hand, and then took a breath, the consciousness merged into the locust tree, and then he was startled again!
That person disappeared!
Damn it in broad daylight?
Kiyu was shocked, but it was still wrong. His consciousness involuntarily moved to the top of the locust tree, and he finally felt that something was wrong. That person did not disappear, he moved to the top of the locust tree trunk! No, more than that, there is not only that person in the locust tree, there is also a moving creature, that is--
"Above!" Cheng Yan said suddenly, another flying sword appeared in his hand, slammed, and the flying sword rushed towards the horizontal branch of the locust tree.
When a green shadow promised to pierce into the branch, it flashed out of the branch, swiftly slammed into another tree, and disappeared again.
Everyone’s attention was focused on Cheng Yan. When the flying sword of Cheng Yan pierced out, everyone also looked at Cheng Yan’s flying sword. Although the green shadow is fast, everyone is a cultivator. He still saw his face in an instant!
It was a green creature with a whole body of green. The skin was a bit rough and bumpy like a tree bark. The roots of the whiskers formed hands and feet. Some parts of the body were still growing with tender leaves. His eyes were a ball. The green mist looks strange.
"That is the Muyoumen demons!"
Everyone was stunned~IndoMTL.com~ This was the first time they saw the Eumon Demon. Although they often heard their elders talk about the hatred of the Eumon Demon, it was a description after all. What you see is true.
At this moment, a figure popped out of the tree, revealing its face in front of the cultivator, and almost everyone knew that it was their goal for this trip!
"Chasing!" Gu Yitian's words awakened everyone, and everyone quickly set foot on Feijian.
"Don't chase!" He promised to stop Gu Yitian, "This is the woods, where can we catch up?"
The Demon Eumon had disappeared. Everyone looked at each other and understood that what the confession said was right, but they were still a bit unwilling, because the Demon Eumon fled under their noses.
Muyu didn't move, he stared at the branch that the Demon Youmen just jumped out, the flying sword that promised was inserted there at the moment.
Xue'er followed Mu Yu's gaze and landed on the branch. Her face suddenly became pale and bloodless--
"Ah--"
Cher's exclamation resounded through the woods, echoing for a long time.
On the branch where the Mu Youmeng Demon Race jumped out, half of his figure appeared from the branch at this moment. His upper body was exposed to everyone’s vision, slumped weakly, but his lower body blended with the locust tree One, still buried in the locust tree! It seemed to be climbing out of the locust tree, but it only stopped after climbing out of the upper body.
The Muyoumen Demon Race wanted to take the person in the locust tree to leave, but the promised sword was too fast. The Muyoumen Demon Race pulled the man out of the locust tree halfway and chose to give up and escape alone.
The man with only half of his body, his whole body covered with blood, has dried up, his eyes are bloodshot, staring roundly at everyone under the tree, his eyes are full of pain and fear, he seems to want to say something, but then Can't say it.
