Chapter 341 Arriving at the Heart of the Tree

Along the way, the passage became wider and wider. When you look up, you can't see the top, only darkness.

Everyone guessed that they had already followed the branches to the section about to enter the main trunk of the demon tree.

However, due to the black colloid filling it, Yan Xiao had to burn all the mucus, otherwise the black colloid would slide off and he couldn't move forward.

So the speed of travel was slower, and the consumption of Yan Xiao became greater and greater.

"It doesn't matter. When we get into the heart of the tree, we can let go of our hands and feet. The four of us will be enough to subdue Zhao Guangxian." Wu Yuan said to Yan Xiao.

Yan Xiao nodded, "It doesn't matter. This consumption is nothing."

Everyone did not walk in the middle of the passage, but stuck to the inner wall on the right. As Yan Xiao controlled the flame to clear the area, the inner wall also appeared in front of everyone.

"There are more and more sword marks on it..." Xiao Qiuxian said as he walked on the far right of the crowd, reaching out to touch the sword marks.

"The sword intent above is getting more and more terrifying, which is definitely beyond our comprehension..."

"It's normal," Ning Wuxie said in a deep voice, "These sword marks were left tens of thousands of years ago, but there are still sword intents in them, which shows the horror of the swordsmanship of the performer."

"Don't you think that the swordsmanship he showed in the battle with Zhao Guangxian just now is very unusual."

"Based on my understanding of Zhao Guangxian, he has long given up his cultivation and progress, and is just enjoying his old age. It is impossible for him to have such a level of swordsmanship."

A puzzled look appeared on everyone's face.

"Is it given to him by the demon tree?" You Youshan asked.

"Of course, it's just... the mist tree is just a demon, why can it make the controlled monster become a master of swordsmanship..."

Ning Wuxie clenched the demon sword in his hand, "I think..."

"There is more than just Zhao Guangxian... waiting for us in the depths of the tree."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

There is more than just Zhao Guangxian!

It means there are others! The culprit is a human!

"But how can the fog tree be related to humans? The fog tree has no heart and no wisdom, it only knows how to devour..." Xiao Qiuxian argued.

"At least this one is not." Ning Wuxie said, "Think about Zhao Guangxian."

Yes, the appearance of Zhao Guangxian means that the situation is far from as optimistic as they imagined!

If the demon tree is really heartless and unwise, how can the controlled demon still speak?

"Maybe it's not a human," Wu Yuan said at this time, "Maybe it's just that this demon tree has lived in the world of swords for too long, and was infected by the sword intent of the Emperor Xuanchen's sword, and because of devouring the world, it has developed spiritual wisdom."

"This statement is not unreasonable."

"Think about what Zhao Guangxian said just now, the demon tree also understands the existence of the way of heaven and the way mark, and thinks that it is more qualified and powerful than us to destroy the sky."

"This is obviously inherited from the will of Emperor Xuanchen."

Wu Yuan's words made everyone certain.

Yes, Wu Yuan's statement seems to make more sense.

And it is easier to accept. After all, compared to a powerful human who is hiding, a demon tree with only intelligence is obviously easier to deal with.

It just has thoughts, and does not understand any conspiracy.

Courage can break it, which is also the only thing Ning Wuxie and his party have.

Everyone calmed down and continued to move forward.

They walked for another half an hour.

The flame controlled by Yan Xiao suddenly burned the black colloid in front of them, and this time, it was no longer more black colloid, but a hole.

A gloomy, damp and slightly rancid smell suddenly blew out from inside, like the ancient air that had been sealed for tens of thousands of years, and everyone hurriedly held their breath.

The flame under Yan Xiao's palm suddenly grew, and all the colloids were burned clean in an instant.

A huge hole was revealed in front of everyone.

The space was so large that everyone felt as if they had come to the inside of a mountain, and even a Dan Tower that was hundreds of feet high and hundreds of meters in radius could be accommodated in it.

The five people waited quietly for air circulation. For cultivators of their level, holding their breath was nothing. Wu Yuan took the lead and walked in.

Ta...

Ta...

Even the slightest footsteps, rebounding in such a huge enclosed space, produced a long echo.

"The fog tree is indeed heartless."

Xiao Qiuxian whispered, and her echo also echoed. She quickly closed her mouth and dared not speak.

In this situation, no matter what they said, Zhao Guangxian, who was hiding somewhere, would know.

Wu Yuan made a gesture, and the five people nodded, spread out side by side, and walked forward.

Empty.

Dark.

Yan Xiao shot out a pillar of fire, and the fire dragon flew far away close to the ground, illuminating an area, but there was nothing.

"There may be nothing on the ground." Ning Wuxie murmured.

A dense cluster of stars lit up in his hand, and he held it in his hand, as if compressing it.

Then waved his hand and threw it!

Like white fireworks, a cluster of bright starlight was thrown out by Ning Wuxie, scattered in the air, illuminating a large area!

The inside of the tree heart, including the walls inside the trunk.

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened, and they were horrified!

On the inner wall of the tree trunk illuminated by the starlight, countless demons and beasts were densely clinging, like cockroaches and maggots on the tarsal bones! They all clung to the wall quietly, motionless, but undoubtedly all stared at the five people on the ground!

Even Ning Wuxie froze in his movements, this scene was too terrifying!

Isn't the heart of the Mist Tree empty? !

The stars fell, and the surroundings returned to darkness, but the five people now knew that the darkness they were in was not empty at all, and was even a little crowded.

It was so crowded that it was terrifying.

They would not be alone, and dangerous violence was brewing, watching their every move.

Wow...

The strange sound started from nowhere, and then began to spread like a chain reaction.

"Retreat! Go back to the passage!"

Wu Yuan shouted loudly, exploding in the silence, and the five people reacted at the same time and retreated wildly!

And the monsters around also moved!

A deafening roar sounded, and there would be no more echoes in the heart of the tree. All the demons jumped down from the inner wall without knowing whether to live or die, and then rushed towards the five people frantically!

"Get behind me!"

Yan Xiao stepped forward, and the golden king fire spread out in a fan shape in his hand, splashing forward.

The demon who was stained with a little bit of the king fire immediately fell to the ground and twitched, unable to get rid of it, and was burned all over in an instant.

"Just stay in this passage, their numerical advantage cannot be brought into play!" Wu Yuan said. They had retreated back to the passage, back to the narrower place, where the demons could not squeeze in.

But at this moment, the branches behind them cracked, and more demons and monsters crawled out of the cracks!

The five people were immediately attacked from the front and back, and quickly turned around to deal with it.

"Hehe..."

However, a familiar and sinister laugh came from the heart of the tree in front of Yan Xiao.
