Chapter 9: Do Your Best

Chapter 3447 Try your best

Implementing the main entrance, extraordinary beings can also suffer from Alzheimer's disease. For example, the old tree man in front has been telling stories for half an hour, starting with the sentence "This must start from thousands of years ago", and then it is still a story.

When we grow a small tree, the rainwater is more nutritious and the groundwater is sweeter.

If the old tree man did this on purpose, then it would be fine if he raised the knife and said everything. The problem is that the old tree man really wants to help Su Xiao and others, but his Alzheimer's disease is quite serious.

After talking about valuable information for a while, he suddenly went off topic. After thinking about it for a while, he started talking about useful information again.

During the old tree man's patient narration, Ona felt a little sleepy, but she still looked attentive, for fear of attracting the old tree man's attention and causing him to lose his train of thought.

About an hour after the old tree man narrated, Su Xiao understood the general outline of the matter. Don't think that he got a lot of information during this hour. The important information was the following two.

1. Without the protection of the secret method of light, you cannot enter the tree hole filled with "darkness", otherwise you will be eroded by the darkness, which is the "darkness" transformed by the power of the abyss.

2. If you want to get the protection of the light secret method, you need a dark stone. You can use the dark stone to temporarily awaken the nearby initial tree. If you don't have a dark stone, you can trade with the "Shadow Spirit".

The so-called "shadow spirit" is the dark figure that Su Xiao saw just now. It is not a living creature, a ghost, or an energy body. It is an existence that feeds on disease and pain.

Don't think that "Shadow Spirit" is the savior of living creatures. Wherever there is "Shadow Spirit", it won't take long for the disease and pain to be eaten up by it. At that time, "Shadow Spirit" will randomly select creatures and seriously injure them.

, make them suffer, make them sick, and feed on them.

"Shadow Spirit" is a disaster, it has strong fighting ability, and after absorbing a certain amount of disease and pain, it will split into daughter bodies.

The Adal people once wanted to trap the "Shadow Spirit" and turn it from a 'pest' into a 'beneficial insect', but they failed. This thing is neither an entity nor an energy body. It can travel between entity and illusion, and even

Can temporarily enter other people's dreams to escape from trouble.

After learning about the characteristics of "Shadow Spirit", Su Xiao, as an alchemist, was very interested in it. Although he already had a [Dark Stone], he was still prepared to try to trade with "Shadow Spirit".

According to what the old tree man said, what Su Xiao just saw was actually the split child body of the "Shadow Spirit". The other party's body is located in a small house. You can see the small house by walking eastward along the foggy sky wall.

.

At the end of his speech, the old tree man revealed his selfishness. It was too old. It was too old to pull out tree roots from the soil and walk like other ancient tree men. If it dared to do that, it would die in a short time.

The old tree man's selfish intention is that if Su Xiao gets the required information, he will water it. The black forest is dark, and even the sun cannot be seen, let alone rain.

Su Xiao signaled Baha to take out a few large buckets of fresh water. Gudu, Gudu poured it over the old tree man for a long time. Moistened by the clean fresh water, the wrinkled old face on the trunk of the old tree man seemed to relax a little, and he whirred after a while.

sleep.

Su Xiao looked at the Initial Tree located further north. Behind the Initial Tree was a wall of fog rising to the sky. This was the end of the exploration.

There was no rush to enter the tree hole on the Beginning Tree, Su Xiao walked eastward along the fog wall, and of course Wood and Ona also went together.

After traveling for less than 10 minutes, Su Xiao saw a small house among the strange-shaped trees.

The area of ​​this small house is several square meters. The exterior wall is bone white, as if it is made up of ribs, and the whole is arched. The door is made of hand bones, and the door handle is particularly unique. When opening the door

, like shaking hands with that skeleton hand.

Opening the door, the scene inside the bone house appeared in Su Xiao's eyes. The room was not big, and the inside and outside were divided into two parts. The inside was filled with darkness, and the outside was a seat made of skulls.

"Shadow Spirit" is dangerous, and there is no distinction between alignment and good. There are only two ways to negotiate with him, fighting and trading.

If you want to fight, you can do whatever you want. If you want to trade, you can't stimulate it. The number of creatures entering the bone house at a time cannot exceed 1, and they must sit opposite it.

Su Xiao sat on a seat made of skulls. As soon as he sat down, the darkness in front of him quickly closed in, forming a dark figure and the black seat beneath him.

Shadow Spirit didn't say a word. Seeing this, Su Xiao took out a crystal bottle, which contained [Dark Matter]. Every time he helped King Da Mao to treat, he would get some extra gains like this.

Su Xiao threw the crystal bottle to Shadow Spirit. Shadow Spirit thought about it, squeezed out a [Dark Stone] from its palm, and threw it to Su Xiao.

After completing the transaction, Shadow Spirit's body floated into darkness and prepared to end the transaction. Of course, Su Xiao did not allow this to happen. He took out a [Precipitate of Darkness] contained in a crystal bottle.

This is also an additional benefit for helping King Dumbao to treat him. [Dark Precipitate] looks like a pure black tentacle as thick as a hair. This is a unique substance produced in the body of King Dumbao after being corroded by [Dark Matter].

, for the stupid king, this situation is terrible, but [Dark Precipitate] is very valuable.

Su Xiao didn't get much [Precipitate of Darkness], not only because there wasn't much [Precipitate of Darkness] in King Daimao's body, but also because King Daimao would be in pain every time he took this thing out of King Daimao's body.

He was in coma several times. One time when the thing was removed, Daimao Wang's heart stopped. He recovered after being rescued by Su Xiao. During the rescue, several of his ribs were broken. Daimao Wang managed to escape death.

After Su Xiao took out the [Precipitate of Darkness], the shadow spirit on the opposite side condensed into a human form, and squeezed out a soul crystal core from his hand, which meant that he exchanged the soul crystal core with Su Xiao.

Su Xiao lit a cigarette and blew out the smoke. Under the control of his mental power, the smoke turned into a cross shape. According to the old tree man, shadow spirits are more sensitive to shadows and smoke.

Cross represents rejection, and ○ represents agreement. This is a simple way of negotiating with the shadow spirit.

Finding that Su Xiao refused, Shadow Spirit seemed to feel disappointed, and the soul crystal core in its hand was swallowed back.

Su Xiao pointed at Ying Ling's right hand, and Ying Ling raised his right hand doubtfully, making a gesture of shaking hands with Su Xiao.

This was obviously a misunderstanding. Su Xiao made a palm knife-like gesture with her right hand, as if cutting off her left forearm.

This time the shadow spirit understood. Its left hand turned into a sharp blade, and it used the black blade to cut off its right forearm without hesitation.

Shadow Spirit's left knife turned into a palm again, and he grabbed his right forearm. Black liquid dripped from the broken arm, dripping to the ground like blood.

Su Xiao pointed to the right forearm held by Shadow Spirit and handed the crystal bottle containing [Dark Precipitate] forward.

Shadow Spirit shook his head, meaning that it was not enough. This [Dark Precipitate] was not enough to replace one of its arms.

Su Xiao took out all three [Precipitates of Darkness], plus a bottle of Evil God's blood. The shadow spirit opposite was very satisfied and threw his right forearm to Su Xiao.

Su Xiao did not touch this dark forearm, but took out the [Container Core]. After repair, the durability of this thing is as high as 530/530.

This is the [Container Core] obtained by Su Xiao after killing the container in Dark Star. The container is not an object, but a name. It is the son of a king who was given high hopes but deprived of everything. The meaning of his existence is just for

Seal the Feather God.

[Container Core] The whole body is made of bone. It looks like a pure white skull the size of an apple, but except for the two eye holes, there are no other holes on it. The texture is much thicker than the skull.

As Su Xiao activated the [Container Core], the right forearm thrown by Shadow Spirit turned into a black mist and sank into the [Container Core].

Su Xiao plans to temporarily preserve part of Shadow Spirit's body in this way. The other party can absorb disease and pain. This arm will most likely have a similar effect.

[Tip: The container core has good compatibility with the original energy of Shadow Spirit. Whether this fusion will be carried out is unknown. 】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the original energy of the container core and the shadow spirit could be fused. He decisively gave up the fusion. As an alchemist, the thing he disliked doing the most was this kind of unknown and random fusion.

.

Based on Su Xiao's experience along the way, random fusion and the emergence of heaven-defying secret treasures are all a lie. Su Xiao has personally tested it more than once before, but was tricked time and time again, so she decisively gave up on the illusion.

, and deeply felt that he was not that lucky.

Unknown fusion or random fusion, the things that come out of the fusion are very likely to be extremely cheating. The finished product obtained in this way, in one sentence, is like, the waste TM opens the door for the waste, and the waste comes home.

Su Xiao put the two away. It was more important to find the Soul-Breaking Shadow Stone. After finding the Soul-Breaking Shadow Stone, he could combine the [Container Core] and [Shadow Spirit Origin Energy] in a safe way.

After ending the deal with the shadow spirit, Su Xiao stood up and left. According to his perception, it would not be wise to kill the shadow spirit to gain benefits, otherwise he, Wood, and Ona would have taken action together just now.

As soon as Su Xiao left the bone room, Wood walked into it. After a moment, the door of the bone room opened with a bang, and Wood was pushed out by the surging black mud.

You don't need to think about it to know that Wood must have tried to trade the Jar of the Abyss with the Shadow Spirit.

The shadow spirit was very interested at first, until it touched the jar of the abyss, and it almost said goodbye to this beautiful world.

The Shadow Spirit is indeed not easy to mess with, but it cannot be compared with the Jar of the Abyss. The original Skeleton Gambler was more powerful than the Shadow Spirit, and it was not as if he had lost his temper after being cured by the Jar of the Abyss.

The bone house composed of huge ribs came together and gradually submerged into the soil. Ona, who had not had time to trade, looked at Wood angrily.

Wood said nothing, and threw two [Dark Stones] to Ona, and then two [Dark Stones] to Su Xiao.

"This mysterious existence is ordinary."

After Wood left these words, he walked towards the direction of the Beginning Tree. Come to think of it, the last battle between the Jar of the Abyss and the Madness of the Growth left a deep impression on Wood.

The group returned to the Beginning Tree. Su Xiao, who had four [Dark Stones] in total, took out one of them and pressed it against the bark of the Beginning Tree.

Buzz~

A wave of fluctuations spread, and the [Dark Stone] was absorbed by the Initial Tree. A palm-sized piece of bark fell off, and a white shimmer appeared on it.

Su Xiao picked up the piece of bark. The bark felt soft and pliable. As soon as he picked it up, white shimmer appeared all over his body, shrouding him in it. Not only that, his brand also notarized that the followers shared it.

Threads of light spread from the bark of the tree and connected to Bubu Wang and Baha. They were also enveloped in white light.

[Tip: You have been protected by light (this state lasts for 3 hours and 24 minutes).]

With the protection of light, he can enter the big tree hole shrouded in "darkness" and continue to track the monkey's footprints. Just as Su Xiao was about to set off, he felt something falling from above, and he raised his hand to catch it.

A pebble-shaped amber fell into Su Xiao's hands. The amber revealed a warm yellow halo, and there was a slender light worm inside. The light worm was not trapped in the amber, but swam inside, leaving a trail along the way.

There are traces of golden light particles.

Just looking at this amber makes people feel comfortable. It fell from the original tree.

Su Xiao felt that she had lucked out, but then she thought, if she was lucky now, wouldn't it mean she would be unlucky if she went deep into the tree hole later?

[Hint: You get the Free Luan.]

【Free Luan】

Origin: Tree-born world·unique.

Quality: Exceptional.

Carrying effect: Absorb the bad luck of the carrier and reverse the fortune of the carrier.

Introduction: This is a unique insect bird in the tree world. It becomes a bird in the air and an insect when it lands on the ground. By chance, it was trapped by the resin falling from the original tree, and finally became this state.

Selling price: Can be sold (but after selling, your luck attribute will be permanently reduced by 5 points).



Seeing the attributes of [Free Luan], Su Xiao couldn't help but be surprised. His luck has always been bad, but today, has this problem been solved?

Su Xiao had a vague feeling in his heart that [Free Luan] was unreliable, but this was a unique output of the tree world, and the problem of luck might have been solved today.

"Bai Ye, what is this?"

Wood saw how extraordinary [Free Luan] was.

"It's just a piece of amber."

Su Xiao put the [Free Luan] in her arms. This thing must be carried with her to be effective.

After a while, all members of the team were blessed with the protection of light, but no more [Free Luan] fell from the tree.

"Bai Ye, you are very lucky."

Ona spoke, and after hearing this, Bubu Wang quickly raised his head, while Baha had a troubled expression. This was the first time in a long time that he heard someone say that Su Xiao was lucky.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't say anything, and walked towards the tree hole in the Tree of Beginning. The moment he entered the tree hole, the small crystal bottle hanging on the handle of his knife was pulled off by a suction force, and exploded with a snap.

The blood of the ghost queen evaporated into the air.

As he went deeper, Su Xiao walked into the darkness. The deep darkness around him seemed to swallow him whole. The seemingly faint light on his body was strong enough to withstand the erosion of darkness.

Su Xiao's sides, top, and feet were all made of rough wood, the color was light brown with hints of green.

The tree hole spirals downward, and after about ten meters of depth, both sides suddenly open up.

This is a cylindrical underground space, with no bottom to the bottom, and inside are intertwined tree roots, some thick and some thin.

Although these tree roots are messy, some of them are nearly 1 meter in diameter and have been repaired manually. The thick roots spiral down like a spiraling downward plank road.

Along the tree root plank road, Su Xiao went down dozens of meters. The surrounding area became wider and the tree roots became more messy, like paths branching out in all directions, leading to the darkness dozens of meters away.

.

Su Xiao explored along the golden footprints left by the monkeys. She had to be careful when traveling here. The roots of the trees were exposed to the underground air for a long time, and thick moss grew on them, making them smooth when stepped on.

Su Xiao jumped from a half-meter-thick tree root to the path made of thin tree roots below. Wood and Ona at the back also jumped down.

Tick ​​tock.

The sound of water came, Su Xiao's hand pressed on the handle of the knife, and a sense of crisis suddenly appeared around her.

A pair of vertical pupils opened in the surrounding darkness, staring at Su Xiao and the other three, as if they were deciding who to fight with.

Hisssssss~

A burning sensation appeared on the back of Ona's hand, and a dark mark appeared, which looked like an eye with vertical pupils.

Ona's expression remained unchanged, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. In this big tree hole, "darkness" was everywhere. These "darknesses" had too many unknown characteristics. Anyone with experience would know

Spatial abilities will not be used here.

"You two, don't blame me."

Ona's face is much worse than that of Sias. Now she is being targeted by the monster in the dark and wants to drag Su Xiao and Wood into the water together to share the risk.

Ona's words, "Don't blame me," show that she still has some conscience. If it were Sin Yas, the thief would definitely have said with a smile: "You two, there is no need to thank me."

The surrounding darkness gradually gathered, threatening to surround Su Xiao and the three of them. The pairs of vertical pupils closed, and the sense of prying eyes around them disappeared.

A black panther walked out of the surrounding darkness. Its size was several times larger than that of a normal black panther. In front of it, a tiger was considered a big cat at best.

This black panther has a pair of blood-colored vertical pupils. Judging from its gaze, it is intelligent.

"Has the highest consciousness in charge of this world opened the wall of fog? What type of life are you? You are very similar to the legendary Adar people."

The black panther stopped and spoke human words.

"Hello, Brother Leopard."

Baha tried to get closer, and the black panther glanced at it, and then his expression seemed to be a cold smile, which was very unfriendly.

"You're so ridiculous, you look like a coward, you look like a spare tire."

Baha decisively turned his back and faced unfriendly behavior, that's how it was.

"Spare tire?"

The Black Panther, to be precise, the Dark Hunter Torn, does not know the meaning of the spare tire.

"That is to say, you love someone very much, but that person doesn't love you, and you act like I only love you in this life."

"You are looking for death, you deserve to die!"

The Dark Hunter Ton bared his sharp teeth after being poked in a painful spot. Looking at the look in his eyes, he had really experienced this situation.

"I'll give you one last chance. Before you disturb the queen, now... go back the way you came."

The Hunter of Darkness, Torn, stretched out his claws and issued an ultimatum.

"Hello, Queen Spare Tire."

"roar!"

The Dark Hunter, Torn, turned into a black shadow and jumped out at an extremely fast speed.

Zheng!

A cutting light cut from top to bottom, and the dark hunter Ton who rushed towards Baha was broken into two pieces. The upper half fell onto a tree root, and the lower body fell into the bottomless darkness below.

"You are very strong. Even when I was the strongest, I was not as good as any of the three of you. But now I am "darkness", a "darkness" that has lost my soul and lost my freedom."

The Dark Hunter, Torn, walked out of the surrounding darkness. Its body was intact and had just been cut open. The upper body that fell on the tree root had disappeared.

It can be said that the dark hunter Ton who is in the big tree hole is almost immortal. It has merged with the "darkness". There are two known ways to kill it. 1. Dispel the evil spirit in the big tree hole.

Darkness, 2. Let it escape from this darkness. After killing it, it cannot be reorganized through darkness.

"Boss?"

Baha is asking if he can kill the Dark Hunter Ton in a short time. If not, he must not delay the fight with the opponent. The time of the Protection of Light is limited.

"You can't kill him in a short time."

"learn."

After Baha spoke in a low voice, his expression changed, and an unscrupulous smile gradually appeared on its face. Since it couldn't be killed, it should be diverted away. First, it should give the Dark Hunter Ton some 'talking therapy' to instill hatred.

Baha asked: "Your name is Ton?"

Tony didn't answer, just stared at Baha.

"If I guess correctly, the queen you are talking about is the queen of the ghost tribe? As far as I know, the queen you admire is not that good. She became the queen of the ghost tribe, but she is unwilling to sit on the stone throne..."

"Fart, the Queen has been sitting on the stone throne for 30 years! The Queen has been sitting on that broken stone chair almost all day since she was 5 years old."

Dark Hunter Torn was extremely angry.

"Oh? In other words, it was the old guys from the ghost clan who slandered the queen of the ghost clan? You didn't take the crown away either?"

"Of course, yes."

The Dark Hunter Ton raised his head slightly, as if taking away the ghost clan's crown was not a shameful thing.

"It was those old guys who were unwilling to accept the reality. In order to survive, they took away the Queen's legs. No! They had no ability to take away the Queen's legs. It was the Queen who gave them her legs and gave them back their upbringing.

Love, time will prove whether we are right or wrong."

Dark Hunter Ton's statement is completely contrary to the information provided by the old ghost clan.

Su Xiao judged that the information provided by the latter was closer to the truth. First of all, the information provided by the old ghost clan was that after the queen of the ghost clan successfully came to power, she first led the ghost clan to conquer the white swamp, but failed to defeat the mushroom clan. After a disastrous defeat,

The ghost queen refused to sit on the stone throne again, unwilling to absorb the cold soul mist emanating from millions of ice slaves.

There are many doubts about this statement. Su Xiao met the Mushroom Clan before. The Mushroom Clan is indeed strong, but the Mushroom Clan's attitude towards the Queen of the Ghost Clan is obviously not to treat a loser, but to respect her.

Even if it is the statue of the Queen of the Ghost Clan, the ordinary Mushroom Clan are willing to risk their lives to guard it. Without a strong sense of worship, this would not happen.

Another point is that when Su Xiao obtained the blood of the Queen of the Ghost Race, the crystal bottle containing the blood kept emitting cold air and hung it on his waist. He felt ice on his waist, so he hung it on the end of the handle.

Such cold blood is not like that possessed by ice powerhouses. The blood of ice powerhouses will not be so cold. This involves energy manipulation and mastery.

If the ghost queen has absorbed the cold soul mist for more than 30 years, then it makes sense that the opponent's blood is so cold.

"I understand, it's the old guys from the ghost tribe who slander the queen of the ghost tribe."

Baha looked very understanding.

"You still have some brains."

The Dark Hunter Ton said this, but he was actually thinking about how to deal with Su Xiao and the others. Although there was a gap in combat power, it was prepared to rely on its own immortality to win the battle, lest these intruders disturb the Queen's Shen Shen.

sleep.

"Brother Bao, I will teach you a lesson today. Even if you are almost alive, don't talk nonsense to the enemy."

As soon as Baha finished speaking, the jar of the abyss appeared in Wood's hand. A dark silk thread had been protruded from the jar of the abyss, and the other end was connected to the eyebrows of the dark hunter Ton.

Upon noticing this situation, Dark Hunter Ton was shocked and angry, but he did not show it. After he carefully investigated and determined that there was nothing wrong with him, he said: "You flat-haired beast..."

As soon as the Dark Hunter Ton opened his mouth, a look of fear appeared in its eyes. The next moment, it was forcibly dragged into the tank of the abyss. Because its size was much larger than the mouth of the abyss, which was only 10 centimeters in diameter, it was sucked in.

When it is in it, it is backlogged until it crackles, and the sound is very cruel.

In the blink of an eye, the Dark Hunter Torn disappeared. The immortality it relied on made it vulnerable to the jar of the abyss.

What disappeared with the Dark Hunter Torn was the surrounding darkness. After the darkness disappeared, black shadows appeared one after another. They had different shapes, some were humanoid, and some were animals. These were not energy, but flesh and blood.

creature.

These dark creatures surrounded the surroundings. A blood gun broke through the air waves and shot out, then pierced the head of a dark creature.

The blood gun was corroded at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the dark creature also fell to the ground and died suddenly. The dripping blood corroded the roots of the tree below until it hissed.

This dark creature is extremely corrosive, and Su Xiao doesn't even intend to kill it directly with a knife.

The surrounding dark creatures are gathering more and more, and after the death of Dark Hunter Ton, it seems that some kind of defense mechanism here has been triggered.

After roaring, the surrounding dark creatures rushed towards him. Su Xiao was just about to fight, but he sensed that no dark creatures seemed to be targeting him. Instead, they were rushing towards Ona, who had a dark mark, and the rest were also rushing towards Wood.

.

In this case, Su Xiao would certainly not take action. Killing these dark creatures, which were both difficult to deal with and had no reward for killing them, was not worth the gain.

Under Ona's surprised gaze, a dark creature rushed past Su Xiao on both sides and came straight towards her. Seeing this scene, Ona felt that she had been plotted again.

After a while, the three people were scattered by the dark creatures. Su Xiao stood still and did not move. Ona, who was being chased by many dark creatures, fled upwards, while Wood rushed into a side hole on the right.

Waiting for all the dark creatures to disappear from sight, Su Xiao jumped to the root of the tree below with full of doubts, and continued to move downwards following the monkey's footsteps.

Along the way, Su Xiao encountered many dark creatures, but these dark creatures seemed not to see him. Instead, they chased after Ona, who had lost sight of him. This was very confusing.

Su Xiao felt that her luck was so good that it was unbelievable.

20 minutes later, Su Xiao grabbed the hanging tree root with one hand and used it as a rope to reach the bottom of the big tree cave.

This place is cylindrical in shape, and located directly in front of Su Xiao are two giant metal doors covered with moss.

There was a relief face on the two giant doors. Due to Su Xiao's arrival, the metal face on the door had opened its eyes. It asked dully: "Secret order."

"..."

Su Xiao looked around and saw no secret order written nearby. Finding this, he took a few steps back. The crystal layer clung to his right calf and right foot. He wanted to use a 'key' called a melee master to open the door.

Suddenly, a weak wave disappeared from Su Xiao's arms. After noticing this change, he took out the [Free Luan] from his arms and found that the light worm inside was dead. The lucky thing he had just obtained not long ago actually died.

!

[Free Luan] may still have hope of rescue, Su Xiao checked its attributes.

【Free Luan】
