Passing through the White Jade Square, you will find the vast second area. In the distance, there are tall tombstones that look very eerie and terrifying. They stand on the ground and a lifeless atmosphere spreads.
As soon as Xiao Ye stepped in, he felt a gust of cold wind blowing against his face, like a blade, making his skin ache and chilling his bones.
"It seems that the second area is very ordinary." Xiao Ye walked side by side with Nangong Xingyu with vigilance in his eyes.
Like the first area, not only is it impossible to fly in the second area, but even the virtual martial arts thoughts are suppressed, and it can only barely detect ten steps away.
"Um?"
Walking to the first huge tombstone, Xiao Ye's eyes narrowed and he found that the ground had been broken open. It was obvious that the ancient genius who had buried his bones here had climbed out.
Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu looked around and found that the tombstone not far away was also empty, and no young people from the four states were found around them.
"I wonder how Brother Donghuang is doing." Xiao Ye became worried.
After this period of getting along, he has regarded Prince Donghuang as a reliable friend.
"The strength of the ancient genius in the second area is equivalent to the fourth level of virtual martial arts, which is not very strong. Unless there is a master like the first area, brother Donghuang should not be in danger."
Nangong Xingyu glanced at the introductions on the tombstones and said.
Xiao Ye nodded after hearing this.
The two continued on the road and marched for half an hour. The tombstones of the ancient geniuses they encountered along the way were still empty. The entire second area was dead silent, with only the howling wind, making it look very desolate.
"It's really strange. Even if these tombstones are empty, we can forget about them, but we haven't discovered any of the young geniuses from the four major states. This is not consistent with common sense at all."
Xiao Ye frowned slightly, always feeling that there was a pair of eyes peering at him in the dark. He looked around, but found nothing.
This is a kind of intuition, and he believes in intuition very much.
Continuing to go deeper into the second area, finally there was no longer an unobstructed plain ahead. Xiao Ye saw a huge sloping valley and a dark cave. He didn't know where it led, and he didn't know what was hidden inside.
Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu looked around and found that to pass through the second area, they had to pass through this sloping valley, and there was no way to go anywhere else.
The sloping valley is tens of meters wide, like a huge crack in the mountain. It is dark and humid, with gusty winds. It can be seen that it is covered with long vines, strange trees with scattered roots, and thousands of strange bare trees. The green leaves are swaying in the cold wind.
, it seems incompatible with the environment of Tianjiao Cemetery.
And hanging on the rugged rocks was a human skeleton. Occasionally, you could see the blood on the bones was still wet, as if they had been thrown away not long ago, and the fishy smell filled the air and was nauseating.
"These are the clothes of the young geniuses from the four major states!" Xiao Ye quickly rushed out and saw the torn clothes next to the corpse, and his heart became heavy.
They finally found the young men from the four major states, but they appeared in such miserable shapes. It was hard to imagine how cruel the ancient geniuses in the second region were.
Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu communicated with their thoughts for a moment, and then slowly walked into the huge canyon with vigilance in their eyes.
Looking around, there was actually a cave inside the canyon. A huge underground world appeared in front of the two of them. However, the scene made Xiao Ye take a breath of cold air.
I saw that the ground was covered with piles of white bones, like thick snow. They looked like they had been dead for a long time, and they were not the young geniuses of the four major states.
"Aren't these the corpses of ancient geniuses who died?" Xiao Ye secretly thought.
Because they were still unable to fly in the underground world, the two of them could only walk as usual, stepping on the bones with their soles. Suddenly, all the bones that had long since decayed were turned into ashes.
At the end of this underground world, a crystal clear demonic tree swayed with a gorgeous figure on the land where bones were piled up, as if to welcome the two of them.
Under the demon tree, there were still ten shriveled corpses lying there. Ten branches and leaves stretched out from the demon tree, pierced through the ten corpses, sucked out their blood, and replenished itself.
Xiao Ye glanced over and immediately discovered that the ten corpses were young men from the four major states who participated in the war. They seemed to have died not long ago.
"This tree actually feeds on blood, it must not be a good thing!"
A cold light flashed in Xiao Ye's eyes, and then he stretched out his palm, and with the surge of power, it turned into a big hand and swatted at the demonic tree.
Before the big hand hit the demon tree, Xiao Ye felt the underground world tremble, as if something huge was about to rush out of the ground.
"Xiao Ye, come back quickly!" Nangong Xingyu shouted coldly, grabbed Xiao Ye's body and pulled him back, and the two of them retreated together.
boom!
In an instant, a thick tree trunk, like the tentacles of an octopus, broke out of the ground, tore through the void, shattered the giant palm, and headed towards Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu with a terrifying power.
Coming to kill.
"The Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers!"
Xiao Ye felt a huge crisis, and without thinking, he took out the mountain and river seal with a flip of his hand. An ancient sacred mountain exuded endless pressure and crushed forward.
"The galaxy is destroyed!"
Nangong Xingyu flicked his finger, and a bright galaxy rushed towards the thick tree trunk like a dragon.
The two peak powerhouses struck at the same time, with earth-shattering power, blowing up the huge tree trunk and sending sawdust flying everywhere, leaving behind a blood-red liquid that scattered in the void like blood.
hiss!
The demonic tree screamed in pain, and only half of the trunk that was left quickly shrank back and sank into the ground.
Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu took the opportunity to retreat to the center of the underground world. The demonic tree swayed and seemed to have noticed that they were difficult to offend and did not attack them again.
"What the hell is this!" Xiao Ye was shocked.
Just now, he and Nangong Xingyu attacked together, but they didn't completely destroy the branch. This was terrible. If he was alone, he might be entangled and find it difficult to escape.
How could such a demonic tree appear in the Tianjiao Cemetery? Didn't it mean that their opponent was an ancient Tianjiao?
Xiao Ye was full of doubts.
"If I'm not wrong, this should be the blood demon tree from ancient times. It was cultivated by the Jidao Palace and fed on the flesh, flesh and soul of geniuses. The blood demon tree has a total of one hundred branches, and each branch has a king.
The strength of the martial arts realm is very terrifying."
"I'm afraid that all the ancient geniuses in the second area were swallowed up by this blood demon tree, so when we came all the way, we saw that all the tombstones were empty." Nangong Xingyu said slowly.
"What!" Xiao Ye was shocked and turned pale.
This blood demon tree is equivalent to a hundred strong men in the King Martial Realm. This is a dead end with no solution.
Moreover, it has been more than 8,000 years since the Jidao Palace was destroyed, but there is still a blood demon tree that has survived and appeared in the second area. This is simply a scam. Don’t the envoys of the ten major Dongzhou forces care about it?
"Prince Nanhuang must have done it!" Xiao Ye thought about the content on that piece of paper and couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Needless to say, this blood demon tree must be part of the second level of the assessment, and it is also a gift from Prince Nanhuang, but I don’t know how he did it.
It seems that Prince Nanhuang is no ordinary person and has a lot of experience.
"Don't worry, judging from the fight just now, the branches of this blood demon tree are not at their peak. After more than 8,000 years, each branch is only as strong as the seventh level of virtual martial arts, so we still have a chance to get through.
"Yes." Nangong Xingyu said.
When Xiao Ye heard this, he felt ashamed. He was so concerned that he would be confused.
Yes, if this blood demon tree was still at its peak, the branch just now could have killed him and Nangong Xingyu, and there would be no way for him to withdraw.
Afterwards, the two discussed for a while, and finally decided to try to force their way in. After all, with their strength, the possibility of rushing through was not small, otherwise they would have to stop here.
As for where Prince Donghuang is, they don't care now.
"Its shortcoming is the main trunk. If you can split it open, you might be able to kill it. Moreover, it is rumored that the main trunk of blood magic contains a red fruit, which is of great benefit to us Void Martial Realm warriors.
, if you encounter it, you can't let it go." Before taking action, Nangong Xingyu carefully analyzed the shortcomings of the blood demon tree for Xiao Ye.
"Oh?" Xiao Ye's eyes were blazing, he didn't expect such an unexpected gain.
"rush!"
Not long after, Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu moved at the same time, turned into two streams of light, and rushed directly to the end of the underground world. At the same time, they raised the sky-breaking knife high, condensed the law of killing, activated the death slash, and transformed into the god of death.
, the rich blood light swept in all directions.
Now, Xiao Ye can easily activate the Law of Killing without worrying about being backlashed.
Nangong Xingyu was surrounded by starlight, and three big stars appeared, filling the underground space and moving toward the Blood Demon Tree to suppress it.
Boom!
The next moment, the underground world shook violently, and the swaying blood demon tree swelled crazily. Huge branches rushed out from the ground, and they were like huge tentacles, heading towards them overwhelmingly.
Sealed the void.
In an instant, the entire underground world was completely boiling.
Looking from a distance, the Blood Demon Tree, which was not very tall at first, rises from the ground and towers into the sky. A hundred huge branches break out of the ground, fighting alone against the two powerful young men Xiao Ye and Nangong Xingyu.
"Damn, there are so many!"
Xiao Ye peaked his sword and cut off the huge branch with difficulty, but more branches rushed towards him, sealing Xiao Ye inside like a prison.
Nangong Xingyu, like Xiao Ye, was surrounded by huge branches and unable to break out.
Xiao Ye activated the second layer of the Ten Thousand Forged Golden Body to hold up a huge golden shield, blocking all the attacks from more than a dozen huge branches, allowing him to temporarily breathe.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Under the repeated attacks from the huge branches, the golden shield shook, and cracks soon appeared, and it might break at any time.
"Don't you have a lot of branches? Then I will break open the main trunk to see if you can survive!"
Two sharp rays of cold light burst out from Xiao Ye's eyes, carrying the three-in-one cave sky, supporting a domain, transforming into a peerless sword, and with difficulty splitting a hole in the prison made of huge branches, and then squeezed his body
He came out and took the opportunity to attack the main trunk of the Blood Demon Tree. (To be continued)
