Looking at the things in the valley, Ye Mu was a little unsure.
"Nonsense, how can a person be a human if it's not a tree?" Ji Ba's figure appeared out of thin air and he laughed and cursed.
"Then... what kind of tree is this?" Ye Mu hesitated for a moment and looked at Ji Ba.
"How do you know?" Ji Ba said dissatisfied.
Hearing this, Ye Mu couldn't help but curl his lips, thinking how awesome you were.
Looking at Ye Mu's contemptuous eyes, Ji Ba suddenly became furious: "Hey! What's going on with that look in your kid's eyes? Do you want to fight?"
As for his shouting, Ye Mu simply ignored it and walked straight towards the ice tree.
As he approached, the ice tree seemed to sense something and began to sway. With this shaking, a strong spiritual pressure rushed towards the face, and the entire valley trembled violently.
"We don't mean any harm! Don't get excited!"
Feeling the changes in the big tree, Ye Mu's expression changed drastically and he shouted loudly.
He thought of the thunder tree from before. That thunder tree had a lot of intelligence, and maybe this ice tree was the same.
After he finished speaking, the ice tree in front of him paused slightly.
When Ye Mu saw this, he felt happy and continued: "Brother Shu, we don't mean any harm, we just came here to take a look."
Hearing this, the branches of the ice tree that had spread out slowly retracted, and the pressure also disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Ye Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ji Ba: "Let's go, let's go there."
After that, he walked towards the center of the valley, and soon he arrived in front of the ice tree.
Ye Mu's eyes swept across the ice tree, and he found that there were scratches on the trunk of the ice tree. The scratches were not man-made, but more like they spread from the inside of the tree.
In the scratches, Ye Mu could feel a dangerous aura, which was turbid and dark, even weird.
"Are you sick?" Ye Mu asked, looking at the big tree.
As soon as the words came out, the branches of the ice tree swayed up and down, and then swayed left and right.
Seeing this scene, Ye Mu was a little confused. So... is he sick or not?
"It is sick, but it is not its own disease." When Ye Mu was confused, Ji Ba suddenly said, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"Then you mean that the power in these scratches was invaded from outside?" Ye Mu frowned.
"Yes." Ji Ba nodded slowly, and the branches of the ice tree swayed up and down.
Seeing the movement of the ice tree, Ye Mu said: "Then is there any way to get rid of these powers?"
As soon as his words came out, the ice tree shook for a while. On the thick trunk, the spiritual light flickered, and then slowly formed a vortex, and waves of rich spiritual power came from it, and there was still that faint feeling.
A strange aura ripples.
"This is?" Ye Mu was a little surprised, and then he reacted and said, "You want me to go in?"
The ice tree swayed up and down. Seeing this, Ye Mu turned his attention to Ji Ba.
Ji Ba was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "Be careful, I always feel that the smell is familiar, but I can't remember it."
After saying this, Ji Ba shook his arms and fired a golden flame with majestic spiritual power into Ye Mu's body.
"What is this?" Ye Mu was stunned.
"This is a golden phoenix flame's sub-fire. Its power is extremely strange, but with this sub-fire and your blue thunder soul flame, it should be enough to cope with it." Ji Ba muttered.
"Is this thing so scary?" Ye Mu looked at the faint black air coming out of the tree trunks and said in shock.
Ji Ba nodded solemnly and said: "Although I don't know what this thing is, it feels very familiar to me. Maybe I have encountered it before. This thing is not simple. You must be careful."
"Then you come in with me." Seeing Ji Ba's words being so serious, Ye Mu also chuckled.
Hearing this, Ji Ba shook his head: "It won't work. If I do it inside, the whole tree will be burned down."
"Uh, okay." Ye Mu smiled bitterly and heard Ji Ba say: "And this should be regarded as the so-called inheritance trial. It's not good for me to intervene. I have helped you get the Blue Thunder Soul Flame before.
What if the inheritor doesn’t approve of it?”
Thinking of Chu Qingfeng's unreliable appearance, Ye Mu also panicked, then waved his hand to Ji Ba and walked in facing the circle of light.
"be careful."
Ji Ba's faint voice came, and Ye Mu's figure had been swallowed up by the light.
As soon as the figure entered it, Ye Mu felt a chill coming over him, and the light blocked his sight. After a few breaths, he returned to normal.
Ye Mu looked around, it seemed to be under the ground, and he was sitting on a thick tree root.
But the surrounding area is crystal clear and clear blue waves. It seems to be a lake, and the lake water is flowing, and strong spiritual energy is rippling in it.
The lake water is blocked by the crystal ice wall, and only a small trickle flows in, nourishing the entire ice tree through the thick and complicated roots.
Ye Mu was not very interested in these scenes, because there was a heart-stopping aura slowly emanating from below.
Ye Mu jumped down from the thick tree roots and walked along the ice blue roots.
This movement continued for several breaths, until Ye Mu stopped at the end of the rhizome.
Ye Mu slowly raised his head, his face full of emotion.
Because there was a huge ice crystal light group in front of him. The light group was beating slightly, and the breath of life bursting out of it made Ye Mu frightened.
"Is this the heart of the ice tree?"
Ye Mu's eyes were full of shock. This kind of spiritual creature from heaven and earth was really strange. No wonder the ice tree had extremely high intelligence and knew how to ask him to help.
As his eyes swept over the crystal heart of the tree, Ye Mu found that there seemed to be a surge of black energy, turbid and filthy, giving the originally pure tree heart a hint of evil.
The black energy surged, and under Ye Mu's gaze, it slowly formed a human face with a strange smile on it.
Ye Mu felt a slight chill in his heart, and with the help of spiritual power in his palm, he was about to attack that hateful face, but the moment he took action, the smiling face returned to the heart of the tree again.
Seeing this, Ye Mu's momentum froze, what a ghost.
When Ye Mu entered the heart of the tree, it was difficult for Ye Mu to take action. If the heart of the tree was damaged, it would be bad. It was originally meant to cure diseases. If it cannot be cured, it cannot destroy the diseased body.
And the black energy seemed to know that Ye Mu didn't dare to take action. It flashed wildly and made an unpleasant whimpering sound, as if it was cheering.
Ye Mu couldn't bear this anger, so he slapped his hand, and a majestic spiritual power surged out, directly hitting the black energy.
boom!
The heart of the tree trembled violently, but the black energy seemed not to be affected in any way.
Seeing that the attack failed, Ye Mu quickly stopped his attack, but there was still that unpleasant whimpering in the black air.
"Calm down, calm down." Ye Mu took a deep breath and no longer paid attention to the black energy. Instead, he observed around the heart of the tree to see if there was any breakthrough to pull the damn thing out.
