Chapter 481: A Strong Enemy Appears

Upon hearing this, Shi Mu shook his head noncommittally.

"Why, Brother Shi doesn't trust the two of us?" Ma Lie snorted.

"Hehe, that's not true. It's just that the two of you have ever thought that such a small amount of holy liquid has attracted so many big families in the entire star field to fight for it. The probability of getting it is so low. Even if you get it by luck, what kind of money will you pay? The price?" Shi Mu asked with a faint smile.

"Brother Shi, don't worry about this. In fact, the tree spirit king's body is full of treasures. Although other things may not be as precious as the tree heart holy liquid, other things are enough to make people tempted. People in the past just defeated its incarnation. In addition to the Celestial Demon Core, you can get countless other benefits. What's more, this time it's its own body?" Ma Long smiled lightly.

After hearing this, Shi Mu's face moved slightly, and he fell silent.

"Brother Shi, the so-called wealth and wealth are in danger, there is still time to go now, and if it is too late, I am afraid that there will be no chance for a share of the pie." Seeing that Shi Mu seemed to be a little tempted, Ma Lie rolled his eyes and persuaded .

"Since the two of you have talked so far, Shi Mou will try his luck, but on the way, please tell me more about the tree spirit king." Shi Mu finally nodded .

"Haha, there's absolutely no problem with that."

Ma Long and the two were overjoyed when they heard the words, and they naturally agreed.

...

Half an hour later, three figures were talking on the ground while walking rapidly

"I didn't expect that the Tree Spirit King would have such supernatural powers!" Shi Mu said with a long breath.

"Although the tree spirit king is full of treasures, his strength should not be underestimated. Brother Lao Shi will worry about it!" Ma Long cupped his hands at Shi Mu.

"By the way, Brother Shi, why didn't you see your spiritual pet parrot?" Before Shi Mu could speak, Ma Lie asked suddenly.

"Oh, why does Fellow Daoist care so much about Shi's pet? It's just an ordinary bird." Shi Mu glanced at Ma Lie and said.

"Hehe, that bird is quite spiritual, and I like it very much. In fact, I once had a similar spiritual pet. Unfortunately, a few years ago, I was killed in order to rescue me. So when I saw your bird, I felt very good-looking. Yuan, I don't know..." Ma Lie said with a sad look.

"It seems that Brother Ma is still an emotional person, but Shi is the same as Brother Ma. My spiritual pet has been with me for many years, and I will never sell it." Shi Mu interrupted Ma Lie directly, and said.

"Is there... no room for negotiation at all?" Ma Lie said.

"No! Don't mention the matter of spiritual pets again, I will never sell them. Well, since the rest is almost over, now let's see how to go to the depths of the secret realm and find the location of the tree spirit king Go." Shi Mu said with a wave of his hand.

After speaking, he turned his gaze to Ma Long who was at the side.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, wait a moment."

As Ma Long said, he flipped his palm, and the red light flowed down, and suddenly there was a two-inch-long bronze fish with snake-like patterns on his body.

"This is?" Shi Mu asked suspiciously.

"This is the glass-patterned copper fish. It is made of a piece of ore brought back from the center of the secret realm by a senior of my family's ancestors. It has a certain connection with the center of the secret realm and can help me not to get lost." Ma Long explained.

As Ma Long spoke, a burst of obscure and low-pitched incantations came out of her mouth, and a layer of spiritual light suddenly appeared on the surface of the copper fish, which floated up and twirled around an inch above her palm.

After a while, the two eyeballs of the copper fish suddenly lit up with two red lights, then stopped turning, and the fish head pointed in a certain direction.

The three of them looked at each other, stopped talking, and rushed towards the direction indicated by the copper fish.

Along the way, the corpses of people of all ethnic groups can be seen from time to time along the way.

Regardless of their size, those corpses all looked shriveled and pale, with hideous and distorted faces, and died in a miserable state. They were obviously killed by sneak attacks from those weird roots, which made the three of them very vigilant.

Fortunately, the three of them were not disturbed by those roots anymore.

What made the three of them quite happy was that the storage utensils and Qingshan orders on the corpses along the way were all there.

Naturally, the three of Shi Mu collected the storage rings and Qingshan Tokens on their bodies unceremoniously, and divided up the spiritual stones, spiritual materials and other items, as well as the demon cores in the tokens.

Three days later, Shi Mu's points were approaching 300,000 points. After a period of rapid climbing, the ranking is still hovering around 180th place. There is still a long way to go before the top 108th place. distance.

It can be seen from this that during this period, the three of them were not the only ones who were so lucky to pick up the leftover Qingshan Order.

In addition, at this time, there are only about 2,300 trial participants in the entire secret realm.

...

Another day passed.

What appeared in front of the three of them at this moment was a somewhat gloomy primeval forest. The giant trees in the forest were all hundreds of feet high, and the trees were covered with dark green moss, making them look a bit damp.

"More than five hundred miles ahead, it's almost time to arrive." Ma Long clasped his palm, put away the copper fish, pointed to the front and said.

Shi Mu looked into the distance in the direction Ma Long was pointing at, and all he could see at the end of his field of vision were dark green giant trees, and there was no shadow of the Tree Spirit King at all.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from the front. The sound was like a thunderstorm, shaking the giant trees beside them.

Shi Mu's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately rushed forward. Ma Long and his brother looked at each other and quickly followed.

After going forward for more than a hundred miles, an "open space" suddenly appeared in front of Shi Mu's eyes.

It is not accurate to say that this is an open space, because on this open space, there are dozens of dilapidated old trees falling here and there, with broken branches and leaves scattered all over the ground, making it look very messy.

And on a piece of dark green broken wood, a tall figure stood with his hands behind his back, blocking the way to continue moving forward.

The man was wearing a blue gown with a belt around his waist. His back was facing Shi Mu and the others. A pair of blue wings were naturally tucked behind his back. His head was raised slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the sky. People are close to average.

Although Shi Mu felt extremely vigilant when he saw this person, his eyes still couldn't help moving to the mid-air.

"Boom!"

There was another loud noise, and the trees in the forest shook again.

In the middle of the air, a huge group of green mist was colliding with another huge group of fireballs, but immediately dispersed.

The green mist seemed to be real but not real. The inner green light was solid, while the outer light was somewhat dim. After colliding with the fireball, puffs of white smoke rose from the surface.

And the red flames on the huge fireball were blazing, and there were small groups of flames stained with green mist on the periphery from time to time, which separated from the fireball and fell to the ground.

One of them fell not far from Shi Mu's body, and immediately burned a big hole in the ground.

Shi Mu glanced over, and saw that the flames in the pit not only did not go out, but burned the big pit on the ground continuously sinking.

Seeing this scene, Shi Mu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and at the same time faintly felt that there was a familiar aura in this huge fireball.

"Boom"

In mid-air, the huge fireball suddenly exploded in flames, and hundreds of fist-sized red fireballs separated from the center, like meteors raining down, and smashed towards the cloud of green mist.

And the center of the green mist was also brightly lit, and the green mist instantly solidified, like emerald crescent moons, facing the meteor shower.

"Bang bang bang..."

A series of explosions resounded through the sky, a large green mist rose in the sky, and dozens of fireballs shot down from the midair, hitting the trees on the ground to break one after another.

And those green mist scattered from the sky and landed on those giant trees.

I saw those dark green giant trees suddenly turned into a withered yellow color as if all the water had been drained, and then turned into a grayish white color, as if they had been burned by a raging fire, and turned into a pile of ashes.

This scene caused Shi Mu and the other three to change their expressions, and they took a few steps back.

At this moment, the tall figure who had been turning his back to Shi Mu and the others suddenly turned around, revealing a young face like a falcon.

But his cheeks were thin, his cheekbones were high, his eye sockets were deep-set, and his high and curved aquiline nose was very conspicuous.

The eagle-nosed young man glanced at Shi Mu and the others, and suddenly smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. After a moment of blurring, he disappeared from the spot inconceivably.

Shi Mu's complexion changed suddenly, the golden light in his pupils brightened suddenly, his body moved forward instead of retreating, and he took a step forward, the meteorite black knife on his back suddenly unsheathed, and swung it forward.

"Chila" sound!

I saw a black sword light shoot out from the long knife, and instantly turned into thirteen indistinct black knife shadows in the midair in front of him, covering the space in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

There was a soft sound in the air, and the disappearing figure of the eagle-nosed young man suddenly appeared in the shadow of Shi Mu's swords.

Between the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, there is a short green blade shaped like a willow leaf. Dao Daoying couldn't touch it at all.

This person flickered in the shadow of the sword, and after easily avoiding Shi Mu's lightning-like shadow of the sword, his figure flashed again in a blur, and returned to the place where he was standing strangely, and turned towards Shi Mu. smile slightly.

Since everything happened in the blink of an eye, this scene looked as if the eagle-nosed young man hadn't moved at all except for a blur of his body, as if he had just turned around.

Of course Shi Mu knew that what happened just now was not an illusion, but a real thing. From the very beginning, he felt the danger of the other party very keenly.

"Hehe, you are barely qualified to participate in this matter because you can see through my shadowless movement." The eagle-nosed youth looked at Shi Mu, nodded in satisfaction, and said with a low smile.

Shi Mu didn't respond, just clenched the Meteorite Black Saber with his right hand, and clenched five fingers with his left hand in the sleeve robe, staring at the opponent without looking aside.

"As for you two guys, I can't even take a single blow from me. Go back where you came from! Although this tree spirit king is full of treasures, he can't tolerate some trash to get his way." The eagle-nosed The young man didn't care about Shi Mu's gaze, his eyes moved from Shi Mu to the siblings behind him, and said without any concealment of contempt.

Shi Mu frowned when he heard this, and immediately turned to look at Ma Lie and Ma Long, his eyelids twitched wildly.

I saw Ma Lie clutching his left shoulder, looking at the eagle-nosed young man in horror, while Ma Long was pressing his right arm, his face pale.

Under the clothes of the two of them, there was a patch of bright red, and it was obvious that they were both wounded.

Although Shi Mu has traveled in this star field world for several years with the relatively abundant star stones, and he can barely be regarded as well-informed, but at this moment, he also feels a burst of shock in his heart.

While attacking him, the eagle-nosed young man unexpectedly still had enough strength to urge the short blade in his hand to injure Ma Lie and Ma Long in a row. His movement skills are so strange and his speed is so fast, it is really something I have never seen in my life.

If it wasn't for his supernatural powers, he could barely see the person's movement trajectory, and blocked the person's movements in advance, I am afraid that he would not be able to guarantee that he would not be tricked just now. (To be continued.)
