Tang Qi Tan

A moment later, amidst the intermittent fighting, wailing, and roaring.

When Jiang Tian stepped across the intertwined corpses and fragments and came to the stone platform above the stairs; he saw a giant tree of flesh and blood winding on the entire stone wall; and a dozen places on the giant tree of flesh and blood that looked like real things The bright red bubbling bubbles squirmed and expanded like breathing.

It's just that there is still a small part of the bubbling part, which has long been shriveled, cracked, black and yellow, like a rotten and festering wound; a skeleton full of branches hangs from it, or a shriveled human figure with deformed wings; There are wisps of liquid, flowing and dripping.

Converged under the thick tree roots, there are several places where smoke curls up like pools of dirty blood.And along the gap between the ground and the roots, it gurgled into the deep pits under the blood tree, with countless intertwined roots; there were bursts of rustling and faint echoes like rain and fog.

This tree of flesh and blood is so huge and towering that it is impossible to see the whole picture at first glance; ordinary people need to raise their heads to a limit.In contrast, the giant tree that Jiang Tian encountered and faced at Shimen before was only the size of a branch of it.

And scattered under the big tree, a few figures retreating in the gaps of a certain opening where the roots hang down, appear extremely small and insignificant, like insects, easily overlooked by people.At this moment, there was another faint voice, which came out intermittently:

"My son, ah no... Second Prime Minister Chenlong, it seems that our cooperation can only end here. The soldiers and horses of the public office outside have already approached Xiao Penglai; and the many arrangements you relied on, it seems It didn't have much effect, and it was easily broken in by someone."

"It seems that there are also capable people and strange men in the public army. The night attack you arranged should have failed long ago; even the beast soldiers and the big tree guards have been destroyed; the tree king, the green master, seems to be unable to block the incoming enemy? Seeing that this place is no longer safe, please forgive me for not being able to continue to accompany me because I have other responsibilities in my generation."

"If that's the case, why don't you please?" Then a weary voice sighed: "Under the sacred tree, there is a secret road made of natural stone cracks, which can lead directly to the seaside. I'll let someone guide you to this way. To avoid accidental collisions, those unnecessary relationships and right and wrong?..."

"Okay, thank you for your success." The person who spoke first also breathed a sigh of relief: "Then there will be a period later!" Immediately, the sound of footsteps disappeared; however, after a few breaths, it became Screams and vague curses: "How dare you lie to me!"

"Anyway, we are allies for many years, how could I lie to you, of course the natural cracks in the ground are true, and the secret road leading to the sea is also true;" However, the tired voice sneered: "It's just that you have to pass through the sacred tree." It’s just a test, if you don’t pass it, it can only be turned into nourishment.”

As his words fell, the deep pit into which the thick rhizomes had plunged into, like a geyser, suddenly ejected a large pile of mucus-stained bones and mummified corpses; most of them scattered on the ground before shattering and brittle It's out of control; but there are still a small number of mummies crawling up.

Branches and leaves creaked all over the body, and finally turned into shriveled corpse trees walking one by one; while dragging the rooted legs and feet, they gradually accelerated, and met the retreating outer guards in a blink of an eye; Jump past them, and wrestle with the Glyphs that are on their heels.

It also made the remaining ten or so guards retreat into the root-like cave at the bottom of the blood tree.And in the depths of the tunnel, there is another empty and unusual cave hall; and the entangled veins and blood vessels on the four walls are like a heart, and an abnormally large fetal membrane is wriggling.

A figure wearing a gold-rimmed hooded cloak stood quietly in front of the fetal membranes, and murmured in a low voice: "It's almost, it's a little bit, what's the key point? Why don't you just refuse?" Wake up? I even sacrificed my former allies to you!"

"If you still refuse to wake up, then I can only take the last resort and force you to wake up." As soon as the voice fell, liquid bubbles suddenly appeared in the spherical membrane, violently rolling; A floating figure.The hooded man couldn't help laughing too.

"You... Sure enough, you can hear what I'm saying... So it's not that you can't respond to me these days. In fact, you have regained consciousness a long time ago, but you have been pretending to be asleep and dormant? If so, then Come out quickly and face everything in this world with me!"

"Damn it!" However, before he could smile for a long time, he suddenly changed his face and said to the remaining guards who hurriedly retreated: "Someone followed you and broke in..." The next moment, the four guards in the cave hall The veins and root canals densely covered vertically and horizontally are activated and peristaltic.

Along with these activated and peristaltic veins and root canals, faint steaming and steaming flows out; suddenly, at the entrance of the cave hall, a vague human shape appears.But it was Jiang Tian who followed behind and sneaked into it at some point; and the moment he saw him, the man in the hood also exclaimed in surprise:
"It's you! How could it be you?" Immediately, the man put down the hood that covered the upper half of his face, and immediately revealed a pale face that looked like a portrait; he stood facing Jiang Tian like a mirror image: "So they brought you back and let you lead troops to attack my cave?"

However, when Jiang Tian saw with his own eyes, the obvious bulges on the forehead and the back of the head of this prince who had a similar appearance but a very different temperament, he immediately understood why the other party seldom showed up in front of people for a long time, and even wore heavy clothes on hot days. It's only for the sake of calling the ministers in private.

Most likely, he had some encounters in his early years; or in other words, in order to completely solve the root cause of his physical weakness, he adopted some extraordinary measures that are not tolerated by the world.Perhaps, in order to maintain a healthy state in front of his subjects, he had to pay a rather cruel and extravagant price.

In the end, in the series of changes in the world brought about by the celestial phenomena, he also inevitably became one of the many changes.But at the same time, it also allowed him to go a step further, gaining an opportunity from a certain secret realm (space debris), and trying to restore and change everything.

Or is this huge blood tree and the abnormal ecology formed around it the core result of his unscrupulous and countless investments over the years?Seeing the original prince continue: "How many years? How many years has that bitch, that old ghost, been talking about it in front of me?"

"Everyone is saying, if I had kept you back then, what would have happened? Even if I had never seen your fake body, I would have been disturbed by it all the time; but now you actually sent it up by yourself?" Then He sneered and ordered: "Kill him, don't leave a single one alive!"

Before the words fell, the guards who retreated into the cave hall waved their weapons and rushed forward without hesitation; however, the next moment, there were screams and horrified exclamations among them; because most of them , tightly entangled by the roots drilled from the wall and the ground.

Then, I saw them exclaiming again and again: "My son!" "My son?" , have never dared to slack off; nor have I ever developed the slightest rebellious heart!"

"Of course I know?" However, Yuan Shizi was unexpected, and replied lightly: "I have never doubted your loyalty; but, I can't make sure whether your loyalty belongs to me or is it just for me. Is it just the status of the son?"

"What's more, I let you see with your own eyes, this evil bastard who looks exactly like me..." The next moment, these roots suddenly tightened, like a strangled python, or like a screwed-up juicer , with the sound of bones shattering, their blood organs were splashed all over the ground.

Then, it was slowly absorbed by the roots and the ground; only skinny "human scum" remained; and the location of Jiang Tian was wrapped by layers of roots and veins, which could not be explained. into a blue-black giant cocoon; Shizi then looked at the giant cocoon and sneered:
"You evil bastard, you are too arrogant, dare to break into the sacred tree; I don't know that everyone on the sacred tree has formed a sympathy with me; even if there are some means of concealment and stealth, so what, why not do it? The nourishment of the sacred tree? However, I will not let you die easily."

"That old thing is really capable. Obviously, I sent people to the Middle Earth to erase all traces related to you; and after so many years of making fake news, I can still find you back? However, this It doesn't matter anymore; what matters is that you actually delivered it yourself."

"I originally planned to continue to deal with them for a while, but things are much easier with you here." Speaking of this, Shizi couldn't help but look pale and said: "In the early years, in order to prolong my life, I tried all kinds of methods. It also made this body gradually alienate to the point of being out of control."

"But with this pair of skins you sent me, I can regain everything I had before, and even turn these things in Xiaopenglai into my own nourishment and capital. But I want to thank you for letting me understand many things outside Everything is empty, and the only thing you can rely on is your own strength."

"As long as you can control your normal humanoid skin, plus the many powers from Xiao Penglai; even in the office, who can defy and rebel against me? Even that bitch who refuses to submit, or It's an old thing that tried to take my chance back then, and it can't!"

Then, he turned to the huge fetal membrane on the inner wall, which had recovered its calmness, and said with obsession and tenderness on his face: "At that time, you and I will be the only ones who can share the glory of this chaotic world of endless disputes." And the great cause, and give birth to qualified offspring for me to continue the bloodline."

"Are you finished?" The next moment, a slightly sneering voice echoed in the room: "As an unqualified villain, you talk too much nonsense; like a spoiled brat, suddenly Get the power that you don't match, and you can't wait to show it off?"
