Tang Qi Tan

A few days later, the sea area hundreds of miles away on the west side of the big island of Yizhou; the scorching sun was shining in the sky, and it was as blue as a wash; A moving sea ship goes up and down, as if shrouded in a steamer.

Until, the largest warship "Wufeng" from the Yizhou Navy, the bare-chested lookout in the mast bucket saw an insignificant point in the sky with a telescope;Only then did the whole ship, which was shrouded in sleepy dullness, come to life.

A moment later, with the sound of hurried footsteps entering the cabin, someone knocked on the luxurious cabin where Jiang Tian was located, and reported in a respectful voice: "My lord, according to the pre-explored route and direction, Erlang, who is looking at it, seems to have just discovered it. , the prison gate island you specified is located..."

After several more hours, an island standing alone in the sea suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Tian's eyes.This island is like a high platform raised out of the sea by the movement of the earth's crust, so it looks black as a whole, and there is nothing else around it except for towering cliffs and chaotic reefs.

Therefore, after sailing around the island for more than half a circle, we were able to find a waterway hidden among the reefs, barely passable for small boats, leading to a small beach on the edge of the black cliff.But here, the platform in the sea suddenly seemed to be split into a gap.

This formed a steep and winding path that collapsed straight down.On this small piece of beach and at the bottom of the gap, Jiang Tian also saw traces of artificial creations again; some stone houses built against the depressions of the cliff walls, as well as old mottled simple wharves and wooden ladders.

There are many bones of people and animals scattered in it; like a guide sign, it stretches straight to the top of the platform at the end of the crack.Therefore, everyone stepped on the winding, old and mottled wooden aisle laid in the narrow and steep cracks, and it took half an hour to reach the top.

However, in front of Jiang Tian, ​​it is a large depression that looks like a silted crater, high on the outside and low on the inside; it also looks like a naturally formed black-bottomed cauldron, with luxuriant vegetation growing in the middle; The road winds in and out, and the twists and turns disappear in the period.

The higher periphery is covered with waist-deep weeds and colorful wild flowers, and gradually turns into low bushes inwardly, with seriously skewed dragon's blood wood, sisal, and cycad.And near the center of the depression, there are more distinct layers of spinosa, seagrass, kapok, and sour bean trees;

The more you walk in, the more shaded and dense it becomes. There are banyan trees with intertwined roots and drooping whiskers, rosewood trees that support the sky, and neem trees full of seeds.The scorching sky of Liege also began to become dim and mottled, and then the sound of rushing water could be heard faintly echoing in the forest.

The path in the forest full of fallen leaves and other humus also disappeared in front of a sudden cliff.And under this cliff, there is an open space with rough rocks, and the sound of water flowing between the rocks is becoming more and more obvious; the fragments of memory guide Jiang Tian to find a small spring hidden in it.

The moment you step into this spring, it is like passing through an invisible boundary/barrier; although the spring is still the same spring, the surrounding environment has changed from an island with scorching sun and strong winds to a forest full of ancient trees and vines. , the humid and lush rainforest where the air is filled with putrid smell.

The sky always seems to be gloomy and gloomy, and from time to time, there is a whirl of rain and mist drifting down; and then, while making the body feel slightly damp and cold, it stops at no time and becomes a continuous stream. Forest fog on the ground, between plank roots.

Therefore, not only as a compass, but as a star guide, polarizing stone, it will inevitably lose its effectiveness; even there are not many markers used for azimuth reference.Because this rainforest is too lush and similar, even if you look at it from a height, it will be endlessly dense.

However, this seemingly endless rainforest is not like the greenness of common rainforests and the vitality and vitality of birds and animals singing; Filled with a decadent, decadent taste.

And this is the "Penglai Ruins" full of crises and risks from Yuan Shizi's memory fragments.It was here that at the cost of losing most of his fellow subordinates and guards, he brought back a "sacred tree seed" from it, and finally cultivated it into the tree of flesh and blood.

In other words, it was during the contact with the "Seed of the Divine Tree" that he was endowed with a lot of extraordinary knowledge, and also made him, as a human being, polluted to varying degrees both mentally and physically.And the most powerful additional ability of "Seed of Shenmu" is the gradual transformation of the surrounding environment.

As long as there are enough flesh and blood sacrifices, especially the human priests who are the strongest and most intelligent, they can further expand the underground root system; thus continue to influence and transform more creatures, such as making insects huge and beasts Distortion occurs, splitting into more active daughter bodies.

Even while absorbing a large amount of flesh and blood essence, let the sacrifice remain exhausted like a vegetative person; regularly discharge some blood lipid-like essence condensation (blood pill), or parasitic species residue (meat species), which can transform and strengthen the body, Promote the integration of humans and other heterogeneous species.

And this is just the only exploration result of that son, with the support of many allies, by accident; after that, he sent several waves of explorers into it, but they never came back successfully.Obviously, there are more mysterious and supernatural dangers in it.

Therefore, he could only suppress his longing for the time being, and continue to work hard to accumulate strength in this world. At the same time, he intensified his search for resources, which also triggered a series of subsequent events...Reflected in Jiang Tian's field of vision panel, it is "abnormal cavitation/space debris, analyzing..."

Therefore, Jiang Tian stood in the mirror image of the flowing spring water, and waited for about half an hour before he raised his feet and walked out.The moment he stepped on the soft sand beside the water, with the sound of the gravel being squeezed and rubbed, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, and instantly a large pile of earth and rocks splashed out.

In the cracked ground, a giant vine as thick as a wheel sprang out, instantly opened its bud-shaped mouth at the top, and pierced fiercely through the place where Jiang Tian was standing, bursting a deep pit like a cannonball; the next moment, this In the flickering of the sword light, a giant vine was broken and rolled to the ground.

Then, the stinky juice splashed and wriggled for a few times, and disintegrated into countless dense whiskers in a blink of an eye; like a green snake/leech, it was still full of vitality and rushed towards the river in the air, Another little bit bounced and stacked up and gradually extended towards him.

It wasn't until it was shrouded in a large tent of flames that it hissed and collapsed, and was burned into a shriveled scorched black hard strip.The next moment, one after another vibrations came, but it was the huge trees surrounding the spring, as if at this moment, they were all awakened and revived.

I saw the thick and swaying branches, constantly surrounding and approaching the spring; at the same time, among the roots of the trees pulled up along the ground, there were still many mummified corpses with broken armor and ragged robes; Under the planning of Yuan Shizi, he was the victim of repeated exploration failures.

However, the prompt reflected in Jiang Tian's vision panel is "Ficus parasite/fusion".In other words, so many activated trees are actually a single heterogeneous species that divides from the same body.He didn't have the patience to chop down the trees slowly one by one, and flew over many treetops in a blink of an eye.

At the same time, Jiang Tian also summoned Person A who had already repaired himself: but this time, Person A who appeared did not act immediately as Jiang Tian wished; land, and gathered around it to form a small strange whirlwind.

And in the surrounding rainforest, there are constantly fine particles like ashes, which are attracted by the whirlwind.The next moment, Jiang Tian, ​​who had already lifted off, also noticed the prompt on the vision panel: "The ember of the puppet (intact/abnormal state), affected by the special environment, is continuously transforming..."

Well, the plan changed, Jiang Tian couldn't help sighing; then he soared and flashed below, swinging branches like a group of demons dancing wildly, and vines and fibrous roots protruding from the ground from time to time; The cylindrical copper box of the object is slightly opened to the front.

In an instant, the strange object "Hanba" exposed to the air, like the sudden appearance of a flying dragon drawing water, instantly draws the moist water vapor that pervades the ground and gathers it into the columnar copper box; The mist dissipated where it passed, revealing the inside.

But the ground is like an activated forest, the mountains and plains are full of disturbed branches and roots, and there are also big walking trees dragging large pieces of soil and sewage; Strange-shaped insects of all sizes emerge from swamps and puddles.

No matter which one of them, it is much larger than the "decaying beard" that Jiang Tian encountered at the underground stone gate; just running so heavy and slowly on the ground, chasing the river soaring in the air in vain畋, constantly projecting all kinds of strange things like rain.

Until Jiang Tian, ​​who had cleared his vision all the way, took out another strange object "Rainbow Demon" again; as the almost unobstructed rainbow light suddenly appeared in the sky, those running and chasing at the side and rear, and constantly hitting and entangled The earth activated the big trees, and suddenly their movements froze and stopped.

Then, within a radius of half a mile centered on Jiang Tian, ​​all the activated trees began to wither and wither, and with the gray spots spreading rapidly, the branches and leaves gradually broke and shattered; the trunks also crisped piece by piece. It peeled off, and finally weathered and disintegrated into ashes all over the place.

And those colorful insects that were chasing endlessly flew apart on the spot as if a catastrophe was imminent; but none of them escaped the scope shrouded by the rainbow light.In an instant, it was like raindrops crackling and falling to the ground; and it began to rot and crack straight.

Almost in a few breaths, an irregular long strip of death and ashes was created around Jiang Tian.However, this result also seemed to startle and irritate another existence hidden underground; immediately before Jiang Tian, ​​a huge green barrier rose up.

It was a huge green wall of tens of feet composed of trees and other vegetation intertwined with countless rhizomes; while blocking the way in an instant, it also surrounded the river in the opposite direction.At this moment, in Jiang Tian's vision panel, a new reminder popped up again:

"Abnormal vacuoles/space fragments, preliminary analysis completed...space structure points (1/3) found, yes/no to absorb space elements?"

The next moment, Jiang Tian chose to confirm without hesitation.At the same time, he also regained his sense of person A; he immediately manipulated the other person to flash one after another. (end of this chapter)
