Woo woo woo...
Seeing the little tree disappear, the Great Sage seemed to be confused. Jump up and down in the cave and start looking!
Although Li Mo didn't understand what was going on, he didn't search blindly. Instead, he carefully observed where the little tree had just appeared.
Looking at the flat ground, there was no trace of it, as if the small tree had never appeared at all. Li Mo immediately rejected the idea of someone taking advantage of the chaos to poach it.
"Is it true that what I said just now is that this thing turned into a spirit and ran away on its own?"
Although Li Mo thought his idea was a bit ridiculous at first, what else could possibly happen in such a magical world? Besides, besides this explanation, Li Mo really can't think of any other possibility.
"Did it go underground?"
Thinking that the heart-like thing just now was hidden ten meters underground, Li Mo suddenly had such an idea.
The Dragon Scale Red Sword immediately used him as a shovel and began to dig into the ground. It's not that he didn't want to use his skills to directly create a big hole. If he really wanted to hurt the small tree as he wanted, the gain would outweigh the losses. He has never seen a tree that emits light, so it must be a treasure.
Rub rub rub...
The dragon-scaled red sword flew up and down and soon dug out a deep hole. Just when Li Mo was about to continue. There was a slight tremor in the soft soil. If it weren't for Li Mo's extremely keen observation as an assassin, he would have almost ignored it.
"Oh no, it's not the same disgusting thing!"
Li Moteng jumped out of the pit and observed the movement below with a vigilant expression.
The Great Sage was also attracted by Li Mo's actions, lying next to him and looking at the pit with a pair of big black eyes.
Woo woo woo...
After two soft screams, the pit began to vibrate violently.
Whoosh…
A green shadow suddenly came out and fled towards the exit of the cave very quickly!
However, Li Mo still saw the appearance of the thing clearly. From the height and branches and leaves, it looked like the small tree that had just disappeared. However, its roots are different from other trees. There are only two thick rhizomes, just like two human legs. This allowed Li Mo to find its information in his memory.
Dryad! The only plant monster in the entire Tianfeng Empire, it has no attack power level but has become the top existence among the fifth-level monsters. That's because it takes tens of thousands of years for this thing to produce spiritual wisdom and the essence of heaven and earth. As long as you take his branches and leaves, your strength will be greatly increased!
"Great Sage! Stop it quickly, this thing is a treasure!"
After Li Mo greeted the King Kong Giant Ape, he immediately increased his speed to the extreme and chased after him.
As a result, a funny chase began, with a plant running lifelessly in front of it, and a man and an animal chasing after it.
The King Kong Giant Ape once again used all his strength and finally stopped the small tree!
Woo woo woo...
Dong Dong Dong…
The King Kong Giant Ape was extremely excited and kept beating its chest, baring its fangs and trying to bite the small tree. And that poor little tree actually leaned against the wall very humanely, and was too afraid to move any more. The slight shaking of its body made the leaves on the ground rustle.
"Great Sage, wait! Don't..."
Li Mo shouted and stopped the King Kong Giant Ape in time. Looking at Li Mo's actions, it couldn't help showing a puzzled look.
"This tree spirit took tens of thousands of years to form. Why should we hurt its life if it is so rare in the world? We only need to take a few leaves from it!"
Li Mo said and looked at the tree spirit who seemed very frightened.
"We won't hurt you. I just want to take a few leaves from you. What do you think?"
Li Mo's words were extremely polite and had a discussion tone. The tree spirit also relaxed a little, shook his body vigorously, and a few green leaves fell.
"Okay! I apologize for the intrusion. You can continue to practice here!"
After that, Li Mo put away the leaves, pulled the somewhat reluctant Monkey King and left the cave.
Half an hour later, they finally climbed out of the tree hole. Sitting on the thick trunk, Li Mo took out the leaves.
"Great Sage! Each of us is half. This thing can increase our strength."
Woo woo woo...
After taking a few leaves from Li Mo's hand, the Vajra Giant Ape swallowed them all in one bite.
Li Mo didn't stop him. This guy was already as strong as a fifth-level monster. He believed that its physical strength could fully withstand this powerful energy.
Facts have proved that Li Mo's conjecture was correct. The great sage still didn't feel any discomfort after swallowing those leaves for an entire hour. He should have been completely refined.
"Okay, now I'm going to start refining these leaves. I don't have your strength, so you have to guard it for me and not let me be disturbed!"
Woohoo…
Seeing that it agreed, Li Mo smiled slightly and sat cross-legged on the big tree. Putting a leaf into his mouth, before he could swallow it, the leaf immediately melted and turned into a pure energy that penetrated directly into his body.
…
Level 26, Level 27!
It took Li Mo half a day to refine all the energy of that leaf.
Another piece was put into his mouth, and this time it only took him two hours to wake up. His level also stayed at level twenty-eight, and he was only a hair away from level twenty-nine. Looking at the only two leaves left in his hand, Li Mo directly put them all into his mouth.
When night fell, he woke up again, and his level stayed at level 29!
"Huh... I didn't expect the energy of these four leaves to be so great, it actually made me rush to level twenty-nine!"
Li Mo stood up and moved his stiff body, feeling a little melancholy despite his excitement.
He knew that even a few more leaves might not be able to allow him to break through the level 30 mark. Leveling up is really not as simple as one plus one equals two. The further you go, the more difficult it is to level up, and the greater the energy required. This is also the reason why some of his mentors are still over level 50 when they are middle-aged.
Huhuhu…
A burst of snoring interrupted Li Mo's thoughts. He was so excited just now that he didn't notice that the Great Sage had fallen asleep.
"You guys are so irresponsible. I have entrusted my personal safety to you. It's better for you to sleep here. Get up quickly!"
Li Mo looked at the sleeping Great Sage angrily, but it didn't react at all.
"Hey! What's wrong with you? Wake up, wake up!"
Li Mo stepped forward and shook its body, but there was still no reaction. But looking at his steady breathing, it didn't look like there was anything wrong with him. This made Li Mo worried.
"Maybe it's because he ate those leaves! It's impossible. This guy is smarter than me. It's impossible for him to do anything he's not sure about! Is it because he absorbed the green liquid from the heart-like monster? "
