Chapter 176 The Sacred Tree Withered
The Demon King laughed sinisterly, and the turquoise sleeve crystal ball suddenly became brighter. A ray of light rushed out from the ball and shot into the hall, just covering the heaven-defying magic bracelet. The heaven-defying magic bracelet suddenly seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and could not move.
"What's going on? What happened?!" Prince Ming, who was flying left and right, suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked up and found that the whole world had turned into a ball of pink, and his eyes were shrouded in a cloud of smoke. As he stood, he was dazzled by countless illusions running intricately and hazily.
The pink beam of light was retracted, and Shia and King Ming found themselves in a big round ball, surrounded by ugly faces, laughing wildly at them.
"You are the daughter of Sith Lan. You are very good and beautiful. I have made a fortune today. With you as a little girl, am I afraid that Sith Lan will not surrender? Blue Moon City is an important border defense town of the Thunder Dynasty. , I have always been on an equal footing with the royal family of the Thunder Dynasty. If I contribute Blue Moon City and all the people in it to the great Demon Emperor for his enjoyment, the Demon Emperor will definitely reuse me, hahahaha. "
"You, you, who are you? How do you know my father's name? Why do you want to capture us in this crystal ball?!" Shia frowned and asked a series of questions.
"I am the Turquoise Demon King who is in charge of the surrounding 'harem'. Your father often fights with our demons and kills many of our warriors. This time we caught you and are going to cut you into pieces to pay tribute to those who died. Soldiers take revenge, little girl, are you afraid?"
"Oh, so that's what happened!" Shia sighed softly, turned white like the Turquoise Demon King, and sat in the crystal ball with her legs curled up.
This reaction was beyond the expectations of everyone in the demon clan. There are only two possibilities for being so calm in the face of death. The first is that they don't want to live anymore, and the second is that they are confident. Don't they still have reinforcements? !
"I think this crystal ball is just a gold weapon at most. A gold weapon is equivalent to a low-grade Taoist weapon at most. In fact, it's far worse than the Heaven-defying Demon Bracelet. It's just that my magic power is too weak now and I can't use it. The power of the heaven-defying magic bracelet allowed him to succeed." Prince Ming sighed and said regretfully.
"Cavalry Turquoise Demon King, the 'withering' ceremony is about to begin. The Demon Concubine asked you to preside over the ceremony. You should go there quickly." Suddenly a burly demon ran in and knelt on the ground to report to the Demon King.
"Okay, you go back to the Demon Concubine, I'll be there right away." After hearing this, the Turquoise Demon King waved his hand, and a huge black hole suddenly appeared in front of him. In the round light, the black mist billowed, and the space folded, which was very strange. The Turquoise Demon just smiled faintly, held the crystal ball in his right hand, and walked in.
When he came out of the black hole, his whole body was lifted up in the void. Under his feet was a large green plain, which was almost hundreds of thousands of miles wide. The smell of green grass was mixed with the wind. It was very soft, very soft, but he didn't like the taste. Demons only like the taste of blood. Bloodthirsty demons. The void is filled with demons, crowded one after another.
In the center of this great plain, there is a huge ancient tree. The ancient tree is about one hundred feet high and requires twenty people to hug it. The trunk shows a dark metallic color, and the crown is huge and leafy. It's so lush that it almost covers half of the plain. It's really nice to enjoy the shade under the big trees. The leaves on the trunk hang down like weeping willows, but its leaves are in the shape of a six-pointed star, and each leaf is shining with golden light. When gathered together, there is a golden light array, covering all the trees of the soul. The covered area was all dyed golden yellow.
"This is the Tree of Soul. It turns out that this is the Tree of Soul. It is so beautiful. It is like a huge firework that never goes away. It contains a mysterious and vast power. It seems to be the source of the power of the demons. No wonder the demons The people of the tribe will worship this tree like this." Seeing this scene at her feet, Shia was scared at the same time, but also a little eager at the same time. Finally, she was close to the tree of souls. Brother Yan was saved.
A radiant crystal ball slowly fell from the sky. On the crystal ball, a shadow of a person appeared. He had long hair, upturned corners of his mouth, and a strong tail. He was naturally the Turquoise Demon King.
"Compatriots, ladies and gentlemen, today is the day when the 'Tree of Souls' withers" once in ten thousand years. As we all know, the Tree of Souls is the origin of our demon clan. Only the tree of soul or demon clan can possess it. Only with magic can we continue to fight against humans. If we lose the source of this power, we will be massacred and destroyed. Therefore, during the month when the soul tree withers, you must stay here firmly. Defend this tree, use your lives to defend this tree. The sacred tree will not treat you badly. In the process of withering, it will release boundless 'spiritual power'. You can absorb as much as you can, but you must do it according to your ability. Yes, because if the brain capacity is not big enough, it will explode if it absorbs too much mental power."
As soon as the Turquoise Demon King finished speaking, there was a surge in the crowd: "Defend to the death, defend to the death, kill all humans, kill all humans."
"In about half an hour, the sun will set. After the sun sets, the tree of soul will immediately wither, its trunk will fall down, the bark will fall off, and even the trunk will look like a wall. The skin peels off, but it doesn't matter, because it only takes a month for it to regain its vitality and grow into a towering tree again. This is a miracle unique to our demon clan. Let's sing its praises together. Let's do it." The Turquoise Demon King raised his arms and made a gesture of embracing the sacred tree. Everyone imitated his gesture and at the same time began to sing a carol:
"Great tree of souls, you are the god for the reproduction of our demon race. We praise you, love you, protect you, and be your servants and friends..." This singing ceremony continued from the beginning until dark, and the sun They stopped when they reached the top of the mountain. Countless demons gathered together with torches and started a barbaric dance around the tree of souls. They sang carols one after another. Some knelt down to worship and mumbled something vague.
A leaf of a tender green six-pointed star suddenly made a rustling sound and began to wither. Then the entire trunk seemed to be infected by some kind of virus. It withered inch by inch and fell to the ground with a crackle. Then many trunks began to wither. After falling, the Turquoise Demon King was right. As soon as the sun sets, the withering ceremony that occurs once in ten thousand years will begin, and the Soul Tree will be reborn in a month.
Colorful ripples and ripples suddenly appeared on the withering Tree of Souls. These ripples spread out with great power, and a long howling sound like a landslide and tsunami could be vaguely heard in the void. , and it seems that tens of millions of horses are galloping and sprinting, or the dam is broken, and the waves are coming, including everyone present.
"The tree of soul has begun to emit spiritual power. Everyone concentrates on absorbing it. How much you can absorb depends on your own luck." The Turquoise Demon King suspended the crystal ball above his head, but he was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Open all the pores in your body to welcome the coming of spiritual power.
At this time, the heaven-defying magic bracelet in the crystal ball suddenly shone brightly, and Yan Shaofeng's body moved slightly...
