The fading fire can only suppress the darkness, but cannot dispel it.
So after obtaining the Fading Fire, Night Fury began a long period of self-sealing.
She left herself in the abandoned place.
It was originally the place where the ancient Yinduo sorcerers exiled criminals, and many powerful people from the evil world were exiled here.
But after the Night Fury came here, all those so-called extremely powerful and evil beings were crushed.
Either they were contaminated by the power of darkness, or they were killed directly by the Night Fury.
Waves of ancient sound sorcerers died there. Polluted by darkness, the abandoned land gradually turned into a dark land, and those exiled criminals became the first batch of night demons here.
In the Land of Darkness, the Night Fury constantly ignites the branches of the Ancient Sound Tree, using it as the ultimate fuel for the Fading Fire to suppress itself.
But in the process, the darkness emanating from her gradually spread to every corner of the dark land.
All the light that had come here was swallowed up, and it became what it is now.
Only the last fading fire, that is, the fire of the Night Fury, could barely illuminate a part of the area, and it was a very small part at that.
This is the whole origin of the Dark Land.
"Learn a little about the Dark Land, and then learn a little about her."
Now Xu Le has a preliminary understanding of all of this, but this information makes him feel a little uncomfortable.
Especially after he knew the effect of the fading fire, he found it even more outrageous.
"Brother, without the Fading Fire, won't she no longer be able to suppress the spread of the dark power? Or has she found a way to dispel the darkness?"
After thinking about it, Xu Lesi still felt that Ye Fury had not solved his own problems.
Giving the Fading Fire to himself was something that happened passively, as he was the one who took the initiative to seek help from the Night Fury.
Then came the later transmission of fire.
After the fire was passed on, the Night Fury, without the fading flame, had no need to stay here any longer.
The dark land has been abandoned by her, and the night demons here have been completely exiled.
They will only unconsciously attack other creatures that come here, such as Chi Xiao.
As for how Chi Xiao got here, that’s unclear. We have to wait until she wakes up.
"Ah, I was inexplicably burdened with the identity of Big Brother's ultimate lackey... I am so tired.
If the spread of darkness cannot be stopped, what will happen in the end? "
Some images flashed through Xu Le's mind, such as the whole world falling into darkness, or a black hole absorbing everything and everything becoming an origin.
Ideas like these abound.
"Anyway, we need to find a way to get rid of the darkness now."
The Night Fury let him stay here for a while, in addition to letting him master this ability well according to the traces of the fading flames.
Another thing is to let him understand the dark power as much as possible.
He needs to find a way to break the eternal darkness.
“Retreat…”
Xu Le put Chi Xiao down. Since he didn't know when she would wake up, he might as well use this time to continue practicing.
His time is very valuable.
Xu Le sat beside the extinguished campfire, where there were still many branches of the ancient Yinduo tree that had not been completely burned out.
Those unextinguished sparks were still very active, and Xu Le wondered, couldn't something like the fading fire be separated out a little
He did it as soon as he thought of it. Xu Le stretched out a branch of the Soul-Eating Tree, and a flame ignited on the branch.
When the fading flames encountered the unburned branches of the Guyinduo tree, they immediately ignited the branches which were still warm.
The fading flames illuminated the surroundings again, and Xu Le's face looked a little pale in the light of the fire.
However, he himself was not aware of the change in his skin color.
Just standing there and continuing to think about the question just now.
If Night Fury wanted to save him before, he shouldn't have used all the fading flames, right
If the Night Fury kept some of the Faded Fire for herself, could she stay here longer
What was the reason for not staying? Was the power of the fading flame no longer enough to quell the darkness
"Forget it. Big brother's thoughts are beyond my comprehension right now."
Xu Le immersed his mind and let a seed fall into the dark land.
As soon as the seed of the Soul-Eating Tree fell to the ground, it was corroded by the surging dark power underground. This environment was not suitable for any plant to grow.
Even a powerful plant like the Soul-Eating Tree that can devour everything can be corroded by the power of darkness.
Seeing that the Soul-Eating Seed was about to die, Xu Le quickly gave it a puff of fire.
When the fading flame burned on the Soul-Eating Tree Seed, the Soul-Eating Tree Seed finally came back to life.
The fading flames can oppress a portion of the darkness.
Let the seeds of the Soul-Eating Tree deal with the remaining darkness.
As long as the Soul-Eating Tree Seed is given enough space, it can absorb other energy around it to grow, provided that the energy does not exceed the standard.
Just like a normal tree will grow if you water it, but if there is too much water, the plant will drown.
Once the seeds have a living environment, they grow very fast, at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It soon grew to a height of about one meter.
But after reaching this state, the growth of the Soul-Eating Tree slowed down instead.
As the tree grew in size, it was increasingly eroded by the power of darkness. The small flame on the Soul-Eating Tree was no longer able to dispel the surrounding darkness.
Now, this soul-devouring sapling can only maintain a height of about 1 meter at most and can no longer grow.
"Unless there is external intervention... Otherwise, even a powerful force rule body like the Soul Devouring Tree will not be able to thrive in this environment.
Moreover, with the nourishment of the dark power, the Soul-Eating Tree's living range will become smaller and smaller.
It's really scary... Brother, where have you been? "
Seeing is believing. After seeing the Soul-Eating Tree, Xu Le realized how serious the pollution of the Night Fury is today.
This is something that normal creatures cannot resist.
The Dark Land is only the place where the Night Furies have stayed, not where the Night Furies are.
I don’t know what the Night Fury’s residence would look like.
"Go on."
Xu Le continued to plant trees because he could absorb the power of darkness through the soul-eating trees he planted.
After these dark forces were absorbed and filtered by the Soul-Eating Tree, they became relatively safe forces for him.
Although the land is dark, it is free of Night Furies, and the source of the darkness has disappeared.
As long as Xu Le keeps planting trees until the Soul-Eating Tree can take root, the darkness here may be cleared away by him.
For the next few days, Xu Le stayed in the dark place, beside the fire.
Plant trees with care.
During this period, Chi Xiao murmured several times, but showed no sign of waking up.
However, her physical condition has gradually improved, and judging from the current situation, she will wake up soon.
Anyway, there is the fading flame here, and Xu Le himself is in charge, so nothing will happen on Chi Xiao's side.
In this way, Xu Le stayed by the campfire for 8 days.
There is no sun or moon here, so Xu Le can only judge the exact time by watching a watch and doing mental arithmetic.
I don't just use a watch because I'm worried that the time here will be affected by the darkness.
Around noon on the eighth day, Chi Xiao finally woke up.
Her lips were a little purple, or to be more precise, black.
Originally, Chi Xiao's spiritual energy was red, but once the red spiritual energy was eroded by darkness, it would turn deep red and purple.
"Awake?" asked Xu Le who was practicing.
During this period of time, he has been trying to find a way to fuse the energy in his body, but he still has no clue.
The ancient sounds and rules in his body seemed to be completely contradictory to the fading fire.
There is only confrontation between the two energies, no fusion.
Chi Xiao had seen Xu Le before he fell into a coma, so he was not very surprised to see Xu Le again when he woke up.
"Um."
I responded briefly, but then felt that this was a bit rude to the person who saved me, so I added another sentence.
"Thank you for saving me."
"You're welcome. We are friends."
Chi Xiao nodded, looking a little depressed. Xu Le thought about it and guessed the reason.
"You met Lord Night Fury? And were defeated?"
In Xu Le's eyes, Chi Xiao is very strong and has almost never been defeated, but if the opponent is on Ye Sha's side.
Xu Le was 100% sure that Chi Xiao would lose and there was no possibility of a comeback.
After gaining a series of insights into the Fading Fire and the Dark Land, Xu Le has a clearer understanding of the Night Fury's strength.
The son of Gu Yinduo is the strongest, so strong that he has no friends.
Night Furies don't need to fit in, don't need to share with others, don't need to consider other people's feelings, and don't even need to pay attention to the Ancient Sound Mother Tree and the Red Moon.
Perhaps Chi Xiao is a very promising transcendent being, a very young legendary master.
But she is still far inferior to Night Fury, there is no comparison at all.
The loss was no surprise.
"Well, they lost completely. We didn't even fight."
"You should say that it's a good thing there was no fight."
"What's the meaning?"
"If there was a fight, you'd be dead. She wouldn't hold back."
Hearing Xu Le say this, Chi Xiao fell into a long silence.
Night Fury won't hold back...
I was indeed too reckless just now. That action might get me killed here.
"Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?"
The two asked at the same time.
"Let me speak first." Out of respect for the wise man and his own character, Chi Xiao did not intend to hide anything.
"Well, tell me about it."
"I met Night Fury in the Red Moon Temple..."
Xu Le:
"What did you say."
"I know you will be surprised, but this is the truth. I encountered a Night Fury near our home on the street of the Red Moon Temple..."
Chi Xiao told Xu Le about his encounter with Ye Sha and the series of events that happened.
He didn't cooperate with Xu Le very often because their strengths were not equal before.
So there was no tacit understanding between them, and many questions needed Xu Le to ask further before they could be answered clearly.
For example, what kind of clothes Night Fury is wearing, whether she is bringing Black Sheep with her, what kind of dishes she eats, what things she is interested in, etc.
After chatting with Chi Xiao, Xu Le suddenly felt very tired.
As expected, people like Chi Xiao are only suitable for fighting, and are not suitable for information exchange.
"In the end, you were thrown here because you dissuaded her from getting into conflict with the Red Moon Temple?"
"It's not lost, it's just a look."
Xu Le sighed:
"Hey, you said you were fine, why did you mess with her?"
"But that is my serious request." Chi Xiao is also very serious now.
But her appearance could only make Xu Le's mouth twitch.
Can you say she is honest? It seems that this is the only explanation. If I continue to say it, it would be impolite.
"You are too straightforward."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Do you want to scold me?"
"That's not what I meant."
"Yes, I noticed that, but if I had to do it again, I would probably do it the same way."
"Why?"
"There are some of our people in the Red Moon Temple. They don't have enough time and can't neutralize the psychic energy. So the Night Fury can't conflict with the Red Moon Temple now."
This reason... Why does Xu Le feel that it is somewhat similar to his own attribute reconciliation rules and fading flames
"You said there were some people, how many people were there?"
“…” Chi Xiao didn’t say anything.
"A lot? About 100?"
"..." Chi Xiao looked at Xu Le and still said nothing.
"Is there 1,000?"
Xu Le's expression was already not right, because Chi Xiao still couldn't speak.
"There can't be tens of thousands of people, right? What you guys are doing is... a bit too much."
"Although I am not familiar with them, their lives are very important. It would be a pity if all our efforts were wasted at this moment."
Xu Le nodded. Now he could barely understand Chi Xiao's approach.
"understand."
"What about you? Why are you here?"
"Mistress Night Fury sent me here. She probably wanted to let you go. Otherwise, you would have died here if she hadn't warned me."
Chi Xiao nodded:
"The environment here is very strange. My spiritual energy will not regenerate, and all other spiritual energies will be contaminated by the energy here. It is simply a dead end."
"This is originally a Jedi, because this is the home of the Night Fury."
“I see, I never thought I’d end up in a place like this.
So what now? Do you want to go out?"
Xu Le shook his head slightly:
"If you recover, I can help you out, but I will stay here."
"Stay here? This is a deadly place."
"Yes, I will stay here and continue my training. This has to do with my abilities."
"Then I will help you practice, and that will be your reward for me."
Hearing Chi Xiao wanted to help him practice, Xu Le subconsciously refused, but he suddenly thought of something...
Those night demons can be killed by Chi Xiao.
Chi Xiao's flame is extremely strong and hot. Although it does not have that glorious feeling, it is a very positive energy.
If this flame can be combined with the Fading Fire, or strengthened.
Perhaps I will have the possibility to integrate my power.
"Okay, help me practice."
