After listening to Tunri's words, Ye Li couldn't help but nodded. The reason why he had the idea of giving up just now was because he was in a state of confusion, loneliness, and couldn't see the way forward clearly.
Because he didn't know how long he would have to climb and because he had not been able to reach the top of the tree, he began to doubt his own persistence, which is also a weakness in the human heart.
The Wood Element Trial is to help the trial-taker understand this so that he or she can overcome his or her weaknesses and carry out and persist in the original belief to the end.
From the series of trials he had experienced, Ye Li finally understood the heritage of this powerful sect a thousand years ago. What they taught their disciples was not only the use of Spirit Gathering Techniques and talismans, but also the correct beliefs and spirit.
It is not enough for a talisman master to have spells, talismans and resources. What is more important is whether he has a good mentality and will not go down the wrong path during the practice.
Looking down, he saw that the four people were moving faster than he had imagined, and it seemed that none of them had any intention of giving up.
Ye Li couldn't help but feel moved. At this moment, the other party was in an illusion. He should be able to easily sneak attack them and throw them down from the tree.
After falling from a tree several dozen meters high, the opponent might not be able to wake up from the hallucination and take protective actions. He might be able to kill four people without any effort.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head. Now he couldn't be sure whether the four people were really from Phoenix Villa, and even if they were from Phoenix Villa, he had no reason to kill them as soon as they met.
Ignoring the actions of the four people, Ye Li looked up at the treetops above. According to the map, the way to leave here was in the treetops.
There was only twenty meters left. Ye Li used his hands and feet to climb up in a few leaps.
Once inside the tree canopy, the path became much easier to walk on. The branches that were much thicker than Ye Li's waist allowed him to climb as easily as walking on flat ground.
After walking another twenty meters in the tree canopy, a huge tree hole finally appeared in front of him.
“It should be there!”
The moment Ye Li saw the tree hole, a look of joy appeared on his face.
Holding on to the branches beside him and taking a few leaps, he arrived in front of the tree hole.
Standing in front of the tree hole, Ye Li looked into the tree hole. The tree hole looked ordinary and there seemed to be nothing special about it.
The tree hole led all the way to the underground under the big tree. Ye Li concentrated his eyes and could see a little red light at the end of the tree hole in the distance.
And he could faintly feel a faint warm current coming from the tree hole.
"No wonder. If I'm not mistaken, this tree hole should lead to the underground magma area, which should be the place for the final fire trial."
Ye Li leaned in the tree hole, looked at the red light in the distance, and spoke.
Tunri nodded and said, "You guessed right, I can already feel the surging fire spirit energy under the tree.
Come on, let’s go down. Below is the final trial place.
Aren't you going to deal with the four people behind you?"
Ye Li said: "No, the only way to deal with them now is to kill them, and I don't want to do that.
If I were to kill them for the sake of the danger they might bring, I would become a demon sooner or later."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Tunri nodded and said, "Yes, I'm glad you understand.
If you really want to kill them and want to go down and kill them, I don't think it is necessary for me to continue to recognize you as my leader. I don't want the person I assist to be a cruel and murderous guy.
Okay, let's go quickly. You have limited time now. If these four people are from big families, they have probably received some training in character, so it shouldn't take too long for them to break through the Wood Element Trial."
Ye Li also knew this and said, “Okay, I’ll go into the tree hole right away.
The map says that we can just jump in, but is it really okay to go down such a high distance?"
Tunri said: "Since the map has it marked like this, there shouldn't be any problem. After all, it's not difficult to build a mechanism under the tree hole that can hold you up. The people from the Yin Yang Five Elements Sect must have thought it through a long time ago."
Ye Li thought about it and agreed, so he didn't hesitate any more and jumped into the tree hole.
It took Ye Li a long time to climb up the tree which was over a hundred meters high, but he fell down very quickly.
In just a few breaths, Ye Li covered a distance of seventy or eighty meters and began to get closer and closer to the red light below. The air around him also began to heat up.
At this moment, Ye Li suddenly felt as if he had fallen into water, and the air around him became as viscous as liquid.
As he quickly passed through the sticky air, the speed at which he fell from above began to slow down sharply, and the impact force brought by his body was completely absorbed by the air.
Just after he fell the last distance, he slid out from under the tree hole at a very slow speed and fell into a cave hall filled with underground fire.
The feeling of being back underground made Ye Li feel helpless.
Looking up, I saw that the entire ceiling of the cave was covered with the roots of a giant tree, radiating out in all directions from the rock wall, and the tree hole was right in the middle of the rock wall.
The huge cave hall he was in at the moment was about a hundred meters in radius. Except for where he was standing, the surrounding ground was full of cracks and gullies, with sticky magma flowing in them.
The red light from the underground fire illuminated the entire cave hall, and the air was filled with waves of heat that made sweat appear on one's forehead.
At the bottom of the other end of the cave hall, there is a passage. Judging from the map, it is the official entrance to the world of volcano magma.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Li walked towards the passage. Because his own fire spiritual roots had accumulated four talismans, he did not feel too uncomfortable in this world of fire. Instead, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Abundant fire spiritual energy filled the surroundings, and Ye Li felt that the power of his talismans could be increased by at least 20% here.
After passing through the entire cave hall, he came to the passage. Looking ahead, behind the passage was an extremely huge area of magma.
As I walked through the passage in front of me, the entire cave suddenly became extremely wide, with huge magma pools everywhere.
There are not many places for people to walk. At a glance, there is only a narrow rock road that passes through many lava pools and extends into the distance.
In the magma pools everywhere, columns of magma fire would erupt from time to time, and the heat would spread out, allowing people to fully feel the surging and violent nature of the underground fire.
