Wu control the world

The Burial Valley is a very different place. Since the death of the black dragon, it is equivalent to not having any master, nor any living monsters.

The surrounding area is very quiet, even this kind of deathly silence makes the birds perched on the branches flutter their wings casually, as if a ghost soars into the sky.

This kind of environment is simply isolated from the world, with dead monsters as companions, and I don't know how the black dragon has survived in the Valley of Burying Demons for so many years.

Fortunately, Lin Xi and the others are not ordinary people, with strong psychological quality, and they didn't care about the environment, so they started searching directly.

The search went smoothly. After all, there were only black dragons active here, so there were very few traces left here. Lin Xi and the others were able to quickly investigate the movement and continue to search in depth.

However, it was probably because the former lair of the black dragon was far away from the location of the ten peaks. Anyway, after a whole day, the group did not find anything suspicious.

A few places with traces of activity were also found, but they were only traces left by some ordinary birds during a short stay here.

The next day, still nothing.

On the third day, the same.

But the whole group did not slack off.

Qilinshi and Kuang Shura are willing to help Linxi in order to help Linxi get the sacred wood spirit stone, so they don't have any complaints when they are tired.

As for Lin Xi herself, she was even more confident.He felt that as long as the sacred wood spirit stone remained in the Valley of Burying Demons, he would definitely be able to find it.

On the fourth day, nothing was found.

On the fifth day, they found a relatively large activity area. Everyone was overjoyed, because they all judged that this must be the place where the black dragon lived. Apart from the pile of food and bones, nothing superfluous was found.

Obviously, this is just one of the black dragon's habitats.

The black dragon may still have more habitats, and everyone needs to find it further.

On the sixth day, the group ruled out another trace of activity.

On the seventh day, nothing was found.

It wasn't until the eighth day that the group expanded the search area to some unknown area, and finally found a trace of black dragon activity again.

Counting, this is already the fourth trace they found. Except for the hole, the remaining two traces were not found. As for this one, although everyone hoped to find something useful, they did not hold too much. hope.

The area of ​​this activity area is about [-] square meters, including a grassland and many woods, but it is not difficult to explore.

A group of people dispersed and began to investigate from different directions.

Two hours later, everyone gathered in the center of the area.

and found nothing.

This also makes sense.

Everyone was ready to leave this place and continue to search for the next trace of activity.

But Linxi said with some doubts: "Kirin Lion, Kuang Shura, have you found any dead trees these days?"

The reason for asking this question is because Lin Xi found a dead tree during the search just now.

"No."

"I haven't seen it either."

Kirin Lion and Kuang Shura shook their heads at the same time.

Obviously, the Burying Devil Valley has a very good environment for the growth of trees, so in the past ten days of searching, they have not found any dead trees, and they have not even seen dead grass.

"I saw one. I think this tree is a bit weird when you say it like this. Let's go and have a look." Lin Xi said.

"Of course we have to take a look, and we must not let go of any suspicious places." Kirin Lion agreed with Lin Xi.

Under the leadership of Lin Xi, everyone came to the place where the dead trees were.

This is a mahogany, 50 meters high, and it takes two to three adults to embrace it, and it can be regarded as a big tree.

However, the nearby mahogany trees and other trees are all growing well, with luxuriant branches and leaves, but this mahogany tree is bare without any leaves!

Moreover, the bark on the trunk is also wrinkled, as if the tree has been dead for many years.

This forms a very sharp contrast with the prosperity of the surroundings. At first glance, people always feel that this dead tree is out of tune with the surrounding environment.

"Dig it and see what happened." Kuang Shura said first, and after that, the black broken knife made a move, and swung a black blade at the bottom of the trunk.

Mahogany fell in response.

The thick trunk lay straight on the ground.

The crack in the trunk was indeed hollow, indicating that the mahogany tree had been dead for a long time.

A group of people split the trunk of the mahogany along the middle, and found that they were all hollow, without any strange places or other things hidden in the trunk.

"The mahogany died for no reason. There must be a reason. Since we can't find the reason from the trunk, we should find it from the roots." Kuang Shura said.

Without any hesitation, Lin Xi directly used the sword of the source of fire, and began to pry the soil and dig the roots.

The soil is soft and digging went smoothly.

But don't look at the mahogany, the roots of the underground tree are scattered layer by layer, and the root system is very developed. Except for one main root, there are as many as thousands of other fibrous roots, and the length of each root is about [-] meters. More than one meter long!

"You can't break any roots, you must dig out all the roots completely." Kirin Lion was worried that a certain root system was weird, so he asked everyone to clean up all the roots.

Get out the taproot first, the taproot is hundreds of meters long, but no abnormality is found, the shriveled one is already dead.

The rest of the fibrous roots were dug out one after another, and Lin Xi and the others checked carefully.

"Look at this one."

Half an hour after digging, Kuang Shura suddenly said this.

I saw that the root of a fibrous root held by Kuang Shura was not thick, only the thickness of a finger, and the length of the root was only about five meters. However, the tip of this fibrous root was still inserted in the soil.

"The tip is connected to a black tree trunk, as if inserted." Kuang Shura dug away the soil on the tip, revealing a small black tree trunk.

"Perhaps, it was the trunk buried in the ground that took away all the nutrients of the redwood, so the redwood died. But, why is the trunk underground?" Qilinshi was a little puzzled.

"Dig it out and have a look." Lin Xi said.

As a result, everyone continued to dig the soil, and gradually, the black trunk gradually revealed its body.

It turned out to be a terrifying black tree trunk with a diameter of [-] meters!

From the analysis of the trunk alone, it is not clear what kind of tree it is.

Moreover, the whole trunk is slanted downwards, and its length cannot be estimated.

So, after digging out a section of the tree trunk, a group of people dug soil along the downward terrain, and worked hard for an hour before finally exposing the whole body of the tree trunk.

The trunk is not particularly long, but there is a distance of 150 meters, but compared with the diameter of 100 meters, it is like a fat wooden pier.

Moreover, the two tops of the trunk do not look like they have been cut, as if they were naturally round, without any root system!

Even if the trunk is dead, at least there should be roots, but there are none!

"What kind of tree is this?"

After lifting the tree to the open space, everyone looked at it with great doubts.

Not only is there no root, but the two top parts of this tree are cylindrical, as thick and thin as the rest of the trunk. It is not like an ordinary tree at all, thick at the bottom and thin at the top.

"It absorbs all the nutrients of mahogany, so it should be alive, maybe we can't call it a trunk, but a tree." Kirin Lion said.
