5096. Chapter 5096 Millennium Sky-Swallowing Tree 1
After a pause, Long Lingzi continued: "This sky-swallowing tree can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and then grow the sky-swallowing fruit. The sky-swallowing fruit can strengthen the physique of the cultivator, and it also has a certain effect on improving the cultivation level. Of course. , this is not the main effect of the Sky-Swallowing Tree. What really makes cultivators salivate is the juice condensed in the Sky-Swallowing Tree. Every thousand years, a drop of sap will be condensed from the inside of the Sky-Swallowing Tree. That juice is the Sky-Swallowing Tree. Where all the essence lies. If a cultivator takes it, not only will his cultivation level be greatly improved, but he will also have a chance to gain a unique ability." Leng Xuan asked, "What ability?" Long Lingzi replied. I can’t say that. I’ve heard other people talk about that kind of strange ability, but I’ve never really seen it.”
Hearing this, Leng Xuan couldn't help but ask: "What is the use of these blue liquids?" Long Lingzi said: "These blue liquids are a method used by the Swallowing Sky Tree to absorb nutrients. It can absorb all the substances containing spiritual power. The objects are then converted into special nutrients and provided to the Sky-Swallowing Tree. The more nutrients it absorbs, the faster the Sky-Swallowing Tree will grow. "
After listening to Long Lingzi's words, Leng Xuan frowned slightly, then lowered his head, his eyes fell on Li Mengjie through the narrow gap. At this moment, Li Mengjie was seen lying in the blue liquid, her eyes closed, motionless, as if she had lost her life. At the same time, the blood snake that saved him before slowly crawled in front of him, opened its mouth and bit his trouser leg, making hissing sounds from time to time.
Leng Xuan's expression changed when he saw this. He was surprised to find that the power of the blood snake in front of him was rapidly draining away. "Is it related to Fellow Daoist Li?" Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "Old guy, is there any way to rescue her?" Long Lingzi responded: "Of course there is a way, it's just a little troublesome. This swallowing sky The tree is one of the spiritual beings in the world. All spiritual beings have certain spiritual consciousness. You just need to communicate with it and convince it to let the girl go." Leng Xuan said blankly: "If it communicates? "Don't want to?" Long Lingzi said calmly: "This is your business." After a pause, he continued: "But if it doesn't work, there is another way." Leng Xuan asked: "What. Method?"
Long Lingzi said: "Inside the Sky-Swallowing Tree, there is something called spiritual root. Its existence is like the human brain. As long as you find it, you can drive it at will. Originally, in the ancient cultivation period , The reason why various sects can use the Sky-Swallowing Tree for their own purposes is because they control its spiritual roots." After hearing this, Leng Xuan did not hesitate and said directly: "Okay, I will try it first. "As he said that, he walked quickly along the thick roots to the trunk of the Sky-Swallowing Tree.
The trunk of the Sky Swallowing Tree is more than two meters thick, and its surface is tightly wrapped with colorful roots. Leng Xuan flicked his wrist, and the Xuanyang Sword was instantly drawn out. Then, he held the sword in both hands, raised it high above his head, and slashed hard at the surface of the Sky-Swallowing Tree. Suddenly, with several spurts of liquid, several roots surrounding the Sky-Swallowing Tree were cut off, and liquids of various colors surged out from the fractures, splashing all over Leng Xuan. At this time, Leng Xuan suddenly noticed that there were some small things contained in those liquids. Upon closer inspection, I saw that the things as big as rice grains were white and slowly squirming in the liquid. Seeing this, Leng Xuan looked slightly surprised and said, "A rice aphid?"
He was a little surprised how these rice aphids could survive in these roots. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head, put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then aimed his gaze at the Sky-Devouring Tree. At this moment, under the blow of the Xuanyang Sword, a hole had been opened on the surface of the tree trunk. He stretched out his hands, grasped the edge of the crack, and then slowly pulled it to both sides. After a while, a thick crack appeared in front of him. At that moment, he squeezed his body in along the narrow crack with some difficulty. After entering the interior of the Sky-Swallowing Tree, Leng Xuan looked around and saw that the interior of the Sky-Swallowing Tree was glowing with a faint purple light, and all the roots and stems showed a strange purple light. With the help of the faint purple light, Leng Xuan's eyes were quickly attracted by a spherical object at the top. The surface of the spherical object was transparent and contained some purple liquid. In the purple liquid, there are still two points of light red light, swimming in the purple liquid from time to time.
Seeing this, Leng Xuan couldn't help but ask: "Old guy, what is that?" Long Lingzi replied: "Those two points of red light are the essence condensed by the Sky-Swallowing Tree. It seems that this Sky-Swallowing Tree has already It has been alive for more than two thousand years." After hearing this, Leng Xuan jumped up, came directly to the spherical object, and then stretched out his hand to take it. Since there is such a good thing, he will naturally not let it go. However, when his hand just touched the transparent spherical object, a strong vibration suddenly came from the inside of the Sky Swallowing Tree, as if it was resisting him.
At the moment, Leng Xuan didn't care about so much and wanted to get the things in hand first. However, the moment his hand came into contact with the spherical object, the roots growing in the Sky-Swallowing Tree suddenly shot out from all directions, hitting his body directly. The internal space of the Sky-Swallowing Tree was originally narrow and could only accommodate him alone. Therefore, faced with the attacks of these roots, Leng Xuan had no choice but to avoid them. Before he could make any resistance, those thick and long roots had already wrapped around his body. Immediately, I saw those roots tightly binding his limbs, and then pulling them in four opposite directions. As a result, his body immediately formed a large character in mid-air.
Faced with this change, Leng Xuan's heart sank, and his body struggled hard, trying to get rid of the shackles of those roots. However, those roots were like hard iron chains, and he couldn't get rid of them at all. When Leng Xuan was thinking about countermeasures, he saw a faint purple light suddenly emerge from the surface of those roots. Then, the purple light quickly climbed up to Leng Xuan's body along the roots. In less than a moment, Leng Xuan's body was wrapped by the purple light. Then, Leng Xuan was shocked to find that under the cover of the purple light, the true energy in his body was rapidly flowing out. This change made Leng Xuan's face change drastically. Obviously, these roots were absorbing the true energy in his body as nutrients. Seeing that the true energy in his dantian was being absorbed endlessly, Leng Xuan bit his steel teeth, and a hot flame rushed out of his body. Soon, the flame filled the interior of the swallowing tree.
