Inside The Black Mist

Chapter 812: Questions that shouldn't be asked

Views:

When the Misty Tree grew into a giant tree, its aura became increasingly massive and profound, but when such a huge aura suddenly disappeared, it was very shocking.

Tianyang, who was collecting the remains of the two-headed giant, felt the old tree's breath disappear, and couldn't help but look back in the direction of his father. Of course, he couldn't see anything, after all, the battlefield was too far away from him, and he didn't have the ability of a hunter.

Once the lord, Tree Old, died, the enemy's defenses became strong, and with the addition of a battlefield-killing troll, the dark people under Tree Old's command immediately dispersed.

Like the receding tide, it disappeared in an instant.

Su Lie also came back. His multifaceted light body and the heavy black armor on his body had been removed. He was holding something in his hand, which seemed to be the relic of the old man of the misty tree.

Throwing the remains on the ground, Su Lie let out a long howl in the direction of his black people.

Those dark people, led by the Abyss Demon General, knelt on one knee and lowered their heads to show their respect.

Afterwards, as if receiving some orders from Su Lie's howl, it stood up again. Then the Abyss Demon General rushed out with a group of Abyss Knights, followed by hunters riding on Abyss Demon Hounds. Su Lie's army bypassed the battlefield and ran towards the corpse of the Misty Tree Man.

Su Lie laughed dryly and said, "Let those guys try their luck. The corpse of a lord is a good thing. Maybe after this tonic, my demon general can evolve into a lord."

Tianyang was a little surprised. After all, in the adverse world, he had never seen the phenomenon of black people devouring black people.

Su Lie knew what he was thinking and said, "This is how the tomb is. The black people here sometimes kill each other and devour the corpses of their own kind in order to evolve."

“If you’re here long enough, it’s not surprising.”

Su Lie whistled to Xue Yan who was on the high slope, then waved and said, "You can come down now."

Xue Yan immediately waved her hands, creating a gust of wind that lifted her feet off the ground. She controlled the gust of wind and sent her to the ground.

Su Lie looked at him with envy: "The Heart of Elements is very convenient, especially for high-level ones. They can control the wind at level 5, and can change the terrain at level 6. At these two levels, almost no terrain can trap them."

"Unfortunately, I awakened the God of War instead of the Heart of Elements. But they were too fragile in the early stage. Not to mention the Ascendants, even ordinary people can kill them as long as they have a gun and a chance."

"So, to be able to reach the high level of the Elemental Heart, it's hard to say about other aspects, but his life-saving skills must be first-rate."

As he was speaking, Su Lie's expression suddenly changed.

Tianyang noticed the change in his expression and was about to ask him what was wrong when he saw a young branch suddenly sprouting from his father's head. There were new leaves growing on the branch.

"not good!"

Just as Su Lie cried out "bad", he saw tender branches with new leaves growing out from the cracks in his armor all over his body. They had a strange vitality and grew abnormally fast.

Su Lie's body swayed and he half-knelt on the ground. He used his long sword to rest on the ground to support his body.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Tianyang was about to step forward.

"do not come!"

Su Lie snorted: "I didn't expect that old tree to have such means. It seems that it has planted some 'seeds' in me. These things feed on my energy. The more energy they have, the faster they grow."

At this time, Xue Yan had already landed on the ground and came to Tianyang. Seeing Su Lie with branches and leaves growing all over his body, he covered his mouth with his hands in surprise.

But when Su Lie saw this woman, his eyes lit up and he shouted, "Quick, burn me with fire!"

"Plants are afraid of fire. High temperature flames can burn them to death, or at the very least force them out."

After all, Xue Yan was a former general, so she knew she couldn't hesitate. Moreover, she had seen how powerful Su Lie was, so she knew that since he dared to ask her to do this, he must be sure that he could survive under the flames.

She nodded: "Be careful."

Then circulate the star essence, transform them into elemental energy, and then build up the fire ability.

call!

There was suddenly a red spot under Su Lie's feet. Tianyang, who was closer, felt the incredibly high temperature. He couldn't help but raise his hand to block the heat waves blowing towards him.

In an instant, Su Lie's figure was enveloped and obscured by the flames. There was a sizzling sound in the flames, and countless young branches and leaves were ignited. The burning of plants formed thick smoke. In this choking smoke, a shadow suddenly rushed out.

It was like a grass ball made up of countless young branches holding together. It seemed that the thing had saved its life by holding together the young branches and was not destroyed in the flames.

But at this moment, a deep and noble black light curtain suddenly broke out from the flame, splitting the flame into two and passing through the strange cluster of branches.

A scream came from inside the thing, and then it fell to the ground. Its branches and leaves began to dehydrate and wither, turning into black mud.

Su Lie walked out of the flames. Except for his hair and eyebrows which were burnt, everything else was fine. But his face was blackened by the smoke and looked as dirty as it could be.

"Fortunately, fortunately, after being hit by the flames, the tree elder's clone took the initiative to leave my body."

Su Lie looked at the black grass and mud: "I really underestimated this old guy. It planted 'seeds' in me. If it is not dead, once these seeds sprout, I will be affected, and I might even be killed by it."

"And if it dies, those seeds will eventually turn into its clones. I believe that as long as there is time, it can become another lord, another mist tree elder."

Tian Yang couldn't help but exclaimed: "Even though you have seen so many incredible things, the Hei Min will always give you some 'surprises'."

Su Lie smiled and looked at Xue Yan: "It's all thanks to you this time. By the way, what's your name?"

The witch general's eyes lit up, and she nervously gave her name: "My name is Xue Yan."

"Xue Yan, Xue Yan, it means both the first snow and the fierce flame. This name is interesting." Su Lie waved his hand, "Come on, I'll take you to have a look."

Xue Yan nodded softly and followed Su Lie obediently.

Tianyang then returned to the original place and picked up the remains that his father had thrown on the ground. It was a crown woven from branches and leaves. When Tianyang touched it, he felt its message.

Black Forest Crown: This is an item left by the Black Forest King Tree, and it inherits some of the King Tree's characteristics. Injecting dark particles into it can use abilities such as "Toxic Tree Miasma", "Forest Guard", "Wooden Dragon Formation", "Tree Sea Maze", "Tree Python Binding Killing", and "Infernal Tree Prison".

These abilities will be more effective when used in the forest.

The will of the King Tree remains in the Forest Crown. If used multiple times, the will of the King Tree will invade and affect the user's body, turning it into a tree.

... ... ..

As expected of a lord-level item, it has as many as six abilities. However, judging from the names of these abilities, the abilities of this relic are more auxiliary in nature.

Moreover, Tianyang also learned the real name of the lord, which was not the Misty Tree Elder given by his father, but the Black Forest King Tree.

Having seen the power of the Killing Troll, Tianyang believed that the power provided by this crown was not weak. However, the negative impact was greater than that of the Killing Armor. If used repeatedly, the residual will of the King Tree would invade and turn the body into a tree.

In other words, the number of times this relic is used must be controlled.

As for the remains of the two-headed giant, although they have good attack capabilities, Tianyang has better ones, so he doesn't think highly of them.

When he returned to the palace, he could not see Xue Yan, but only saw Su Lie wiping his sword. Tian Yang looked around and could not help asking, "Where is that woman?"

Su Lie looked deeper into the hall and said, "I see her clothes are dirty. Let her change them. It must be uncomfortable to wear such dirty clothes."

Tianyang looked at his father in surprise: "You still have clothes for women to change?"

Su Lie was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "There are definitely no clothes, but there are a lot of things I picked up, including armor and the like. If we piece them together, it should be enough for her to change into a new outfit."

As they were talking, Tianyang heard footsteps. Xueyan came back. She had changed her previous clothes and now had a set of armor of a peculiar style.

Because it was pieced together, the parts of the armor were extremely asymmetrical. For example, Xue Yan's legs. Her right leg was covered with knee-length leg guards, but her left leg only had a short boot, leaving a long white leg exposed to the air.

However, in terms of "coolness", it is still not as good as Xingluo.

"Boy, people gave you some food, so take it out," Su Lie reminded.

Tianyang quickly took out the backpack of supplies given by Hong Xiang, picked out the Star Essence replenisher, clean water and food from it, and handed them to Xue Yan.

Xue Yan nodded gently: "Thank you."

She drank the replenishing liquid first. She had consumed too much energy in the previous battle with Wei Chengzhou, and she had just helped Su Lie to light a fire, so her star energy was almost exhausted.

After drinking this bottle of replenishing liquid, the star energy finally began to recover, but since people were in the abyss world, the recovery of the star energy was relatively slow.

She unscrewed the bottle cap again, drank a few sips of water, and then tore open a food bar. No matter whether it tasted good or not, it would fill her stomach first.

"Xue Yan." Su Lie suddenly shouted.

The witch general quickly wiped her mouth: "I'm here."

Su Lie smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I just want to tell you that the Blue Dragon guys will come here in a few days. When the time comes, you can go with them. Let's leave here together."

Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, then cautiously asked: "What about you, will you come with us?"

Su Lie was startled. He didn't expect that this woman asked the same question as Tian Yang. He coughed dryly, stood up and said, "We'll talk about it later. I'll go see how those guys are doing and whether they have evolved into lords."

Watching Su Lie leave, Xue Yan felt a little puzzled, wondering if she had asked a question that she shouldn't have asked
