Chapter 389: The Chief Culprit for the Birth of Death Qi
Giant tree?
Qin Zhe was slightly stunned, subconsciously raised his eyes, and then frowned.
In the distance, a vibrant green came into view.
It was a short, but exceptionally strong ancient tree.
According to the visual inspection, the ancient trees that are only more than ten meters high are growing horizontally. The cross-section of the trunk of the tree is at least a thousand meters thick, and the whole looks like an ancient tree with the wrong talent.
The old trees with luxuriant branches and leaves are entrenched in the gray and dead land, which is not only visually out of place.
After careful perception, Qin Zhe could sense a strong vitality.
This is a manifestation of the exuberant vitality of the ancient tree itself.
This is outrageous!
The dead air that pervades the dead land devours life in every pervasive way.
If it weren't for some extremely different existences, it would be impossible to survive on this land.
Even Qin Zhe, an alien with unlimited vitality, dare not guarantee that he can stay on this land for a long time.
After all, death aura had an impact on him, but the impact was minimal, and it could not shake his foundation in a short period of time.
The ancient tree in front of him should be the shelter of the Wandering Spirits.
According to the age of the Wandering Spirit Clan, it has survived in the Dead Land for at least hundreds of thousands of years, maybe even longer.
It is hard to imagine that such a crooked giant tree grows in the depths of the dead land, and it grows so strong.
Looking at the thick old tree, Qin Zhe couldn't help but secretly scolded Wang Chongguo for not being strict in his work.
This ancient tree is like a beacon in the dead land, as obvious as it needs to be.
Haicheng University has been sitting in the secret realm of the sky for at least dozens of years, yet it is completely unaware of it.
But Qin Zhe thought about it again, and felt relieved again.
This is the depths of the dead land, and the dead air permeating is almost visible to the naked eye, and it is no longer silently affecting it.
The bad old man has only been promoted to the seventh level recently, and with his original sixth level cultivation base, he may have to confess his life if he has penetrated so far.
Moreover, the place of death is guarded by the Heaven Swallowing Python, so he may not be allowed to approach it.
etc!
It doesn't seem right!
The concentration of death energy in this place is so outrageous, it seems more like the origin of death energy than the concentration of death energy here?
Qin Zhe frowned, squinting at the clouds and mists surrounding the branches of the ancient tree.
Those clouds and mist seem... not ordinary clouds and mist, but made of dead energy?
Qin Zhe was taken aback.
Taking a closer look, he found that the dead air so thick that it formed a cloud was not eroding the ancient tree itself, but volatilizing outward.
Aware of this abnormality, Qin Zhe only said "Fuck" and didn't know whether to say it or not.
There are various indications that the dead air is emanating from the vigorous ancient trees, and then affects the surrounding areas, thus forming a dead place.
This... TM is an evil tree!
It is not evil to have a strong vitality, but bring complete death to the surrounding area?
Seeing Qin Zhe staring at the ancient tree with an increasingly strange expression, the girl sitting on his shoulder made a weak sound.
"Well, don't get me wrong, the formation of the dead land has nothing to do with my family's holy tree. In a way, it is the holy tree that limits the development speed of the dead land."
Qin Zhe had already judged that the ancient tree was an evil tree, he was taken aback when he heard her voice suddenly, and said curiously.
"how do I say this?"
"I told you earlier that our family feeds on the essence of heaven and earth. The essence of the so-called essence of heaven and earth is the majestic vitality that separates between heaven and earth and promotes the reproduction of all things."
The girl looked embarrassed, twisted her body in embarrassment, and said.
"Our clan escaped from the big world and sacrificed most of our clan's lives, and those who survived fell into a deep sleep were also severely depleted. In order to ensure the continuation of life, we will eat unconsciously after the deep sleep to ensure that we are safe. In the unconscious state, naturally there is no restraint. Eating and eating will cause the surrounding area to generate dead energy, forming a dead place. If the holy tree itself is not emitting vitality, this small world may..."
"So, you Wandering Spirit Clan are the culprits that caused the land of death and silence?"
The corners of Qin Zhe's eyes twitched, thinking that something was wrong, he said suspiciously.
"According to what you said, the land of death and silence should be unique to the secret realm of the sky. Your whole family of the Wandering Spirit Clan is here, and there are places of death and silence in other places. This doesn't seem to make sense."
"Don't be so hard-headed, okay?"
The girl let out a coquettish voice and said indignantly.
"Our Wandering Spirits are not the only ones who feed on the essence of heaven and earth. There are dead places in other places that can't be blamed on our clan!"
Qin Zhe blinked his eyes when he heard the words, pondered what seemed to be such a truth, and asked again.
"You Wandering Spirit Clan, how many of you are still sleeping?"
The girl was silent, and then bowed her head to respond after a moment.
"There are almost four hundred people, and the clan is on the verge of extinction. When our clan was the most prosperous, there were nearly a million people in the clan."
Millions of people, now there are only more than 400 left?
Qin Zhe froze all over, silently raised his hand to catch the dejected little guy on his shoulder, spread his hand in front of him, and said.
"I don't guarantee that I will be able to wake up your people. I can only do my best. It is best to be able to wake up, but if it fails, I hope you don't..."
"Don't worry, I won't blame you whether it succeeds or fails."
The girl curled her legs and said in a low voice.
"Your appearance at least gave me hope. If not, it's only a matter of time before our clan is destroyed. Sooner or later, I will become the only wandering spirit left in the world, and I will probably choose to die by then."
The topic was so heavy that Qin Zhe didn't know how to answer it.
He can't be said to have a good impression of the Wandering Spirits.
The main reason is that he only came into contact with young girls before he knew such a race existed.
But after all, the girl helped him strip the imprint left by the sky, and brought him another kind of energy, which has the possibility of improvement.
He was completely the beneficiary in the brief contact, so how could he be unconscious?
Just when Qin Zhe was hesitant to say some earthy words to appease the depressed girl, the Tuntian Python suddenly stopped moving forward.
What's wrong?
Qin Zhe raised his eyes in doubt.
The ancient tree is close in sight, but there is still a long way to go.
Seeing that the Tuntian Python had stopped moving forward, the girl sorted out her emotions, got up and said.
"Tuntun can't get any closer. The rest of our clan has been sleeping for too long and has completely lost control of eating. It is so weak that it is too close to lead to the loss of vitality. We will go the rest of the way."
"Okay, let's go there by ourselves."
Qin Zhe nodded, put the girl back on his shoulder casually, and moved away from the Tuntian Python.
Almost in an instant, Qin Zhe approached the giant tree with super-high speed of the shadow step, and entered the range surrounded by dead air and mist.
Qin Zhe couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he bumped into the dead air that was so thick that it formed a cloud.
The death energy that invaded his body grew at an extremely fast speed, speeding up the flow of vitality.
The vitality is passing by here, but he can still bear it.
However, one's own vitality is lost in a large amount, even if it does not endanger one's life, discomfort is unavoidable.
Qin Zhe didn't stay within the range of the dead air cloud and mist, and came to the ancient tree through the cloud and mist, and then lifted off and stepped on the crown of the tree.
Immediately afterwards, an indescribable scene caught his eyes...
