Chapter 140 The Mountain Spirit and the Wisteria Tree
Wu Tianyi stretched out his hand, put it on the tree demon's tree trunk with a frightened face, and grinned: "It's all right if it hurts!"
"boom!"
Fiery red flames soared into the sky, and amidst the shrill screams, the tree demon kept losing its vitality. Under the burning of the flames, the continuous flow of wish power into its body was also greatly hindered, and its injuries could not be recovered at all!
"I don't want to die! I just want to leave this mountain. What's wrong with me?"
"To borrow Captain Lu's words, you must abide by the rules of human beings in the territory of human beings. If you kill someone, you must pay with your life, so... Pyro!"
"BOOM!"
The flames of the explosion destroyed the last bit of vitality of the tree demon. Without special attack methods, it would have no way to survive in the face of Wu Tianyi who could transform into a fire element.
With the disappearance of the bloody tree demon, the vibration in Yuqingshan also began to calm down.
"finished?"
Lu Xiangtian and Zhao Ming also came to the place where the tree demon disappeared for the last time. The whole tree was burned to ashes, leaving only a huge black hole.
Li Yun didn't talk nonsense, but jumped into the cave with a knife in his hand.
"Fuck, what are you so excited about as a summer vacation worker?"
"Brother Yun, wait for me!" Seeing Li Yun jumping down, Wu Tianyi quickly turned over and jumped into the huge cave!
"Hey! Red-haired boy!"
Zhao Ming was about to chase down, but Lu Xiangtian stopped him.
"Boss, don't we go in?"
"People are going to get the spoils, what are we going to do? The aftermath of the battle here is a bit serious. If there is no accident, we will be criticized by our superiors later, such as 'Oh, you didn't take care of the safety of the masses at all when you attacked the wisteria tree', 'You made such a big battle in the scenic area without applying for it', 'Your incompetence killed so many people' and so on."
Zhao Ming scratched his head: "Although it is very incomprehensible, if this is the case, won't you be dismissed by them, boss?"
Lu Xiangtian carried the equipment bag on his back, and said with a chuckle, "At most, I'm just letting me take the blame. After all, I can empower their equipment. Without me, how can they save money?"
"Boss is awesome!"
"I don't know what happened to Wang Qing."
Under the roots of the wisteria tree, there are intricate rhizomes, and these thick rhizomes form huge holes!
And because of Wu Tianyi's arson, although these rhizomes did not melt into ashes, they turned into a pile of black charcoal.
"Brother Yun, what are you doing down here?"
Li Yun explained: "Of course it is to find a different energy. This tree demon should not be dead, otherwise it is impossible that there is no different energy!"
"Ah? Shouldn't this kind of supernatural energy be taken by the return captain?"
"According to the summer vacation worker agreement, all the supernatural energy produced by the task belongs to me! In order to open a burning fruit for you, I spent a lot of money!"
Wu Tianyi was immediately moved: "Brother Yun."
"This way!"
Li Yun saw a golden light emanating from the depth connected by a certain rhizome, so he quickly cut off the charred roots and rushed over there.
Before Wu Tianyi had time to say something touching, he had no choice but to follow Li Yun and ran towards the shining direction.
Following the rhizome, the two of them came to a relatively small cave.
What caught their eyes was a huge nodule, and all the rhizomes, including the trunk of the wisteria tree, were connected to this nodule.
And what is wrapped in this tumor is a small blue monster similar to "Goblin".
When it saw Li Yun and Wu Tianyi, its eyes were full of fear: "Don't come near me! Get out of here!!"
Li Yun and the others were no strangers to this sound, it was the sound from the five sense organs on the tree trunk before.
Li Yun poked the green monster's face with a knife curiously: "So you are the real face of the tree demon, you look like a mob!"
The little monster didn't dare to look directly at Li Yun and the others. Its whole body was trapped in this root nodule. The fear left by the two people just now was still deeply imprinted in its heart, and it couldn't make any resistance now!
Wu Tianyi also moved his face closer, he was also very curious about this strange creature.
"Ah!!!! Get out of here, don't burn me!!"
Seeing Wu Tianyi, the little monster's face became even more frightened.
Li Yun scratched the little monster's face, and red blood seeped out.
"Don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" The little monster frantically begged for mercy.
Li Yun said expressionlessly: "Tell me what you are and why you disguised yourself as a wisteria tree. I can consider letting you go."
The little cyan monster hurriedly explained, as if he had been pardoned: "I am an elf born from this mountain, and I am a good person! I am not a bad person!"
Li Yun chopped off the little monster's ear, and said flatly, "You think I'm easy to fool?"
The little monster's pupils contracted, and blood flowed out from the severed ear, staining its entire face red.
"Don't tell me I'm a mountain spirit. After the aura revived, Yuqing Mountain was nourished by the aura. The huge wisteria tree awakened its spiritual wisdom. It was worshiped by a large number of humans every day. It was nourished by the power of wishes. In just 20 years, it was promoted to level six. And because of its aura, I was born on this mountain."
Li Yun frowned: "The wisteria tree has the strength of level six, how did you snatch it away, you little trash?"
The mountain spirit swallowed a mouthful of saliva and explained: "During its promotion, its consciousness will fall into a deep sleep. After a few years, just relying on your human wishes to make offerings, you have already touched the bottleneck of the seventh level. I am very jealous, so when its consciousness fell into a deep sleep, I entered its root, and then swallowed its sleeping consciousness and occupied its body."
Wu Tianyi was dumbfounded: "So simple?"
"It's that simple. Although the power of will makes it improve quickly, its soul strength can't keep up. Every time it is promoted, its consciousness will become very weak, so I can take it away."
"Then why are you killing people?"
The mountain spirit said with a painful face: "I originally thought that as long as I took it away, I could inherit everything from it and be nourished by this wish, but these wishes did not recognize me at all, and I was trapped here like a cage. I will never get out. Only by improving my strength can I get rid of all this. I just want to be free! I only kill one or two people every month. For you, there are so many human beings, it’s nothing worth mentioning, right? It’s not a crime at all, right?"
The corner of Li Yun's mouth rose: "Don't you want to be free? Then I will give you freedom!"
The sharp magic knife cut through the root nodules that had trapped the mountain spirit for more than ten years just by slicing it across.
Shan Jing's thin body rolled out from the root nodules.
The feeling of both feet touching the ground made the mountain spirit ecstatic: "Haha! I'm free! I'm free again!"
But before it was happy for two seconds, a purple long knife whizzed towards it, directly piercing its heart, lifting its entire body.
The mountain spirit looked at his pierced body in disbelief, his face pale: "Didn't you say... let me go."
Li Yun threw the mountain spirit out of his blade in disgust: "I mean I thought about letting you go, but I didn't think about success!"
