I, the sycamore tree demon, have met a phoenix!

The sound of the system is also very humane, showing a hint of helplessness.

[Otherwise, once the transplantation is not completed within the planned time, both the system and the host will dissipate in nothingness due to insufficient energy]

Uh……

Hearing this, Lin Wu could only swallow the resentment in his heart.

If the system did this on purpose, he would definitely be angry. After all, if he stayed in such a place where there were no farts, he might go crazy in a short time.

But since the system can't help it...

"Oh, okay, okay, I get it, it's just a monster, which means I still have a chance to transform from a tree into a human, right?"

【Yes】

[According to the information, most monsters have the ability to change form, including the dryads that belong to the host. As long as the host's body and monster power grow to a certain level, they can probably use this ability freely.]

"Sure enough."

After getting the other party's confirmation, Lin Wu was slightly relieved.

It would be nice if it could be transformed into a form, which is a bit of hope.

however……

"The growth of physical body and demon power..."

He thought again.

The growth of the physical body is not difficult to understand. It is probably to let him grow up from this small tree species to his prime age. The growth of the demon power probably means to let the total amount or quality of his demon power grow to the point where he can transform into form. degree.

but……

Leaving aside the demonic power and so on, just talking about the physical aspect, even if he has never planted a tree before, he has heard that most trees on the earth can grow for a hundred years, and some cedar trees can even survive for a thousand years. Long.

It can be said that it is many times longer than his time as a human being.

If he had to wait so long, he would probably go crazy halfway through his growth, and he would not be able to survive the moment when he transformed into his own form.

"Is there no way to accelerate my growth?"

After thinking about it, Lin Wu still spoke.

[Usually, there is no way to shorten the growth cycle of trees]

"No?"

Lin Wu panicked.

Then the system suddenly changed the subject.

[However, according to the host's body structure and the function of the host's demon power, the host can try to use the demon power to increase its own absorption of water and nutrients, and then strengthen the body's absorption capacity]

[In this way, the division and growth of the host's body cells can be accelerated to a certain extent, thereby achieving the effect of accelerated growth]

"..."

Can't we finish it all at once?

but……

Use demon power to increase the absorption of water and nutrients?

"Yaoli can still do this kind of thing?" Lin Wu frowned, this was the first time he had heard of it.

[Monster power is a special power unique to monsters. The monster power of each monster is very different from each other, and its functions are also diverse. It is not like in those fantasy works that the host has seen, there is only fighting. A method of use]

amount……

Lin Wu was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, his personal understanding of monsters is all learned from those novel games, especially in games, most of the monster power is regarded as the blue bar in the game that is specially used to release skills for characters.

Therefore, his understanding of the concept of demon power gradually shifted in this direction.

[According to the test results, the host's monster power can't be condensed into an entity, it can only be integrated into the body to control the host's body to a certain extent]

[Therefore, the system suggests that first use this function to accelerate the growth of the host's body and the host's demon power, and then develop or strengthen other functions of the host's demon power after the scale of the host's demon power reaches a certain level]

"……Fine."

Lin Wu nodded in his heart.

In short, it is to use demonic power to promote physical development first, so that one's body can produce more demonic power, and then use this more demonic power to further promote physical development, thus entering a virtuous circle.

In this way, I may no longer need to wait for hundreds of years.

"So, how to control the demon power?"

【Hmm... Concentrate first, try to slowly feel the existence of the demonic power from your body, and then control the demonic power】

"focus……"

Lin Wu closed his eyes in the dark, and quietly began to perceive his own existence.

1 minutes passed.

2 minutes passed.

10 minute has passed...

"System, it shouldn't be very difficult to perceive your own demon power, right?"

[No, compared to other monsters, most dryads cannot feel the monster power in their bodies during this period. Even if the host has an adult human soul, they must practice for a long time]

"Long time... about how long?"

[The system can't judge, maybe a year?two years?Or ten years? 20 years? 】

[In short, the difficulty for the host to perceive the demonic power is related to the growth degree of the host's body. The more mature the body, the easier it is to perceive the demonic power. If the understanding is not good, it may not be able to perceive it when it grows to the prime of life]

"..."

Lin Wu was silent.

If one year or two is fine, it will pass by gritting your teeth, but what if you have to practice for ten or twenty years...

"Are you playing with me? It's been so long, I'm not crazy or stupid, and there is still a need for transformation?"

【this……】

The system voice hesitated for a moment.

[Actually, you can also choose to grant the system the right to use the demon power, and let the system complete the work of using the demon power to stimulate the growth of the host's body]

[This system can accurately adjust the amount and direction of use of demonic power according to the growth of the host's body, and the host can first use a small part of the demonic power to focus on deepening his proficiency in using demonic power, and then control himself when he is fully proficient body of】

"Oh? This is more or less..."

Lin Wu immediately opened his eyes wide in his heart, and the dullness in his tone was swept away.

Let the system manage your growth progress, and then concentrate on studying the demon power yourself. In this way, the acceleration of your physical growth can start now, and the accelerated growth of your body can also speed up and reduce the difficulty of perceiving the demon power!

As for whether it is possible to be black-handed by the system...

It seems that the system wants to play a black hand in this situation, and it has no choice, so just try it.

"Just do as you say!"

[The host's will was detected]

[Reading the host's demon power]

【Planning the use of demon power】

【Planning completed, start to implement】

Chapter 2: The Orion and the Bear

In the darkness, Lin Wu could hardly feel the passage of time.

Now, he no longer has a series of physiological reactions such as hunger and sleepiness. The only thing he does every day is to continuously improve his proficiency in controlling demon power. When he is tired, he will either stare blankly by himself or chat with the system.

The days passed slowly like this day by day.

In a blink of an eye, a year has passed.

Lin Wu's progress in controlling the demon power finally changed from feeling nothing at the beginning to being able to faintly feel something.

Then the second year passed.

Lin Wu has been able to clearly perceive the existence of those special energies in his body, and as long as he concentrates all his energy, he can slightly control the flow of these energies.

Then came the third year.

The point of controlling the flow of demon power gradually lost its difficulty in front of Lin Wu. At this moment, he only needs to move his mind slightly, and he can easily and quickly transfer the demon power to any part of his body.

At last……

Ten years have passed.

……

……

At this moment, in this dense forest, more than a dozen hunters wearing clothes made of animal skins, carrying longbows on their shoulders, and holding spears in their hands, are carefully and slowly advancing.

After walking for a while, a younger-looking young man suddenly asked in a low voice.

"How is it? Lord Tiger, have you found that beast?"

His voice was not loud, but the older hunters around him still frowned and glared at him the moment he spoke.

When hunting, the most taboo thing is to make some meaningless noises.

These sounds may not be considered anything to human hearing, but if they are placed in the ears of those animals, it is equivalent to actively revealing their position.

Not to mention that the target of their hunt this time was the giant bear that had been running rampant in the forest for at least five years.

That guy's hearing is definitely far better than that of a human being. Most of the three brothers of the Hu family suffered a big loss on this point, and only half of their bodies were bitten by the big bear.

Therefore, even a slight negligence now may have very serious consequences.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the young man immediately realized the mistake he had made, and couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment.

As for the Master Hu he was talking about, he was Liu Hu, who had the most seasoned hunting experience in the village, and was also the leader of their operation this time.

At this time, he didn't pay attention to the movement behind him at all, but squatted down, staring solemnly at the muddy ground full of fallen leaves in front of him.

Something is wrong here.

The thickness of fallen leaves piled up on the ground does not match the number of surrounding trees. With just a few nearby trees, it is impossible to drop so many leaves, so...

Liu Hu slowly stretched out his hand and picked up the fallen leaves layer by layer.

Then, he saw the layer of refurbished soil covered by fallen leaves.

There was an immediate thump in my heart.

As long as a large creature like a bear walks on the mud, it will inevitably leave a large footprint due to its weight, and it will use the mud and fallen leaves to smooth out the marks it has walked on.

In other words, the mind of this beast is not weaker than that of a human!

And it has also discovered the existence of these hunters!

Liu Hu's eyes gradually widened, then he quickly raised his hand and gestured to the people behind him.

Ready to fight.

In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.

The hunters had a clear division of labor. The people outside immediately held their spears tightly to be on guard. The people inside quickly unloaded their longbows from their shoulders and took out their homemade wooden arrows.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at the surrounding dense forest.

The bear had come, and was probably lurking around them, ready to attack from some shadow at any moment.

But at this time, Liu Hu simply stopped hiding and yelled loudly.

"Keep your eyes open! That beast won't escape! It needs food for the winter just like us! This time, I will definitely kill it!"

In fact, these hunters in their riverside village and this bear are old rivals.

It's just that in the past four years, the bear's activities were mainly in the west of the village, far from the south of the village where the hunters usually hunt, so no one is willing to spend their minds to take care of it.

But now that the bear has grown up, it starts to run to the south of the village again and again, and starts to think of human flesh.
