The colorful butterfly flapped its wings gently, and the fog in front of it dissipated, opening up a passage, and it flew in. Qin Ran and others followed it and walked forward along the passage.
The passage stretched silently in the fog, as if it had no end; colorful butterflies flapped their wings and flew in front, but there was no sound; Qin Ran and others followed without making a sound.
In this quiet atmosphere, I don’t know how long I walked, but suddenly there was a change in front of me.
The passage opened up and the fog dispersed, but at this moment the fog disappeared and the passage came to an end. There was light, shining in from outside.
Qin Ran looked forward and saw a vast expanse of sky and earth on the other side of the passage. The sky and earth were bright and clear, and there was no more fog!
All of a sudden, everything became clear, as if my depressed heart in the fog also brightened up.
The group of people unconsciously quickened their pace, walked out of the passage in a few steps, came to the outside of the passage, and looked at this world.
The sky was infinitely high, blue, and cloudless, with sunlight pouring down from above onto the valley ahead.
The valley was not big, but it gave people a strange feeling, as if it was a plain before, but then a powerful force pressed it down and it became a valley.
In the middle of the valley, there is a tall willow tree with lush greenery. The willow tree is so big that it grows from the bottom of the valley all the way up until its top protrudes out of the valley.
It has luxuriant branches and leaves, with thousands of willow branches hanging freely, like a little girl with thick long hair weaving many braids, hanging in front of her body; there are leaves on the willow branches, each leaf is glowing green and about to fall, with endless vitality on it; among those leaves, there are inlaid one after another white catkins, like snowflakes falling on jade.
Anyone seeing a willow tree like this would say "how beautiful!", if there wasn't a picture of hell in front of it.
At the bottom of the valley, in front of the willow trees, there were skeletons of all kinds, including tigers, leopards, snakes, rats, ants, and countless human skeletons.
How many bones are there
They piled up, covering the lower half of the willow tree and filling half of the valley. Looking from this side, it looked like a willow tree had grown on a mountain of corpses.
And on top of these corpses, there were many corpses that had not yet turned into bones. They also included all kinds of species. They fell on the mountain of corpses, at the foot of the willow tree, one after another, with blood flowing.
That willow tree represents endless life, and the bones under its feet represent endless death.
In addition, in the valley, looking forward from the position where Qin Ran and others came out, in front, on the edge of the cliff, there were seven or eight huge monsters kneeling devoutly.
Each of these monsters exudes an extremely terrifying aura. Each of them is a top monster in the Hengduan Mountains.
They knelt there, crawling, as if they were humans prostrating themselves, paying the highest respect to the willow tree.
There is no doubt about it, the willow tree standing above the corpses at the bottom of the valley is the legendary Demonic Willow!
After searching for who knows how much time, and even during which some people sacrificed their lives, they finally found the Devouring Demonic Willow. However, this group of people did not feel happy at all.
Because at this moment, the seven big monsters kneeling in front of the Devouring Demon Willow stood up.
They are all at least level six monsters. They all stand at the top of the food chain in the Hengduan Mountains. They are extremely powerful.
“No wonder there aren’t any big monsters outside the Immortal Relics Land. They’re all here.” Qin Ran shook his head. He looked at Su Changqing and asked, “So, what about plan B?”
"What?" No matter how powerful Ren Su Changqing was, he couldn't possibly know what plan B was.
“What should we do next?” Qin Ran asked again, “What should we do after we find the Devouring Devil Willow? You can’t have no follow-up plan!”
Su Changqing took out a round plate from his Qiankun bag, motioned to Qin Ran, then showed it to the others, and said:
"This is the Wanli Tracking Disk. If we place it here, Elder Ning will be able to locate it with his magical powers, and then bring people here to destroy the Devouring Demon Willow."
Bring people to destroy the Devouring Demonic Willow
Hearing this, Qin Ran's heart skipped a beat. As perceptive as he was, he realized that something seemed to be wrong.
for example…
"By the way, where did Elder Ning go?" Qin Ran asked.
He had never realized why Elder Ning and the other people from Lingnan Xianzong did not come together to kill the Devouring Demon Willow directly after finding it. But now he understood a little bit.
“Elder Ning is only at the initial stage of Spiritual Transformation, while the Devouring Devil Willow is at the perfect stage of Spiritual Transformation, or even half a step into the state of Integrating with the Dao. So even if the Devouring Devil Willow becomes weak by then, Elder Ning may not be able to defeat it.
“In our
When he came to the Immortal Relics Land to look for the Devouring Demon Willow, Elder Ning was also seeking help from the sects near the Hengduan Mountains. "He should be in the Infinite Sword Sect at this time," Su Changqing explained.
Something is wrong. Something is very wrong!
But Qin Ran couldn't figure out what was wrong for a moment, so he sorted it out carefully and didn't respond.
"Then can we just put this Wanli Tracking Disk here?" Jian Yuanjie asked.
Even if those big monsters stood there motionless, their terrifying demonic aura could still make people panic.
“No!” Su Changqing shook his head. “We also need to ensure that this tracking disk is not destroyed by these monsters. The Devouring Demon Willow is obviously making final preparations now. It can’t move, but it can control the destruction of these monsters.”
Jian Yuanjie was stunned when he heard this. He thought of a possibility and asked anxiously, "Are we going to guard the tracking disk, fight these monsters, and wait for Elder Ning and the others to arrive?!"
Su Changqing looked at him, with an inexplicable smile in his eyes, and then nodded.
"It's over!" Jian Yuanjie suddenly had the urge to return to the fog.
You should know that the sixth-level monster is equivalent to a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage or half a step into the God Transformation stage, the seventh-level monster is equivalent to a cultivator in the middle and early stages of the God Transformation stage, and the eighth-level monster is equivalent to a cultivator in the late stage of the God Transformation stage.
And right now, there are four level six monsters, two level seven monsters, and one level eight monster!
What about them
Five people in the Jindan stage, plus a butterfly whose combat power is unknown.
Although the average combat power of cultivators is higher than that of monsters of the same level because they have the support of external forces such as magic weapons, talismans, and formations, it is still limited!
This situation is beyond their ability to handle no matter how you look at it!
"We don't need to fight head-on, we can just delay it. And it doesn't need to be delayed for long, until Elder Ning and the others arrive."
Su Changqing said, he raised his hand and took out his sword, while assigning tasks.
"Leave the level eight monster to me, and the other two level seven monsters will be in the charge of Brother Qin and Junior Sister Bai. You two just need to hold back the two level six monsters. Is that okay?"
"???"
Boss, there is a problem!
Qin Ran asked, "How did you know that I am a god who can fight against opponents above my level?"
