"Bang bang bang!" It was too late to say, but soon, the two beasts fiercely bombarded the rock wall with two pairs of fists, and heard "rumbling" sounds one after another, and large pieces of the rock wall immediately collapsed and fell down.
"Swish! Bang!" In an instant, several huge things rolled out of the shattered rock wall and fell to the ground. The mandrill was a little curious: "What is this?" Then he stepped forward three steps at a time. Watch and see.
"It seems to be a thick plant rhizome." Guan Heng also came over to take a look, and then said to his companions who were following him: "Did you smell anything?"
"Hey, this aroma is..." Gu Sangnu smelled it carefully, and then shouted happily: "It's the aroma of ancient wood spiritual marrow, sword spirit, don't you think so?"
"Yes." Sword Spirit also stepped forward to check it, and then said: "It is indeed the breath of spiritual marrow, but it is strange, why is it attached to the roots of this plant? And we didn't see the spiritual marrow."
"No, if we want to talk about the spiritual essence of the ancient wood, it should be right in front of us." Guan Heng's words surprised everyone: "Right in front of us?"
"We didn't see it." Guan Heng waved his hand to keep them quiet. He suddenly pointed his fingers like a knife, and after a "hissing" sound, he immediately made a cut on the plant roots.
"Tick tock, tick tock..." In an instant, the liquid with a strange smell flowed out.
"Spiritual Essence of Ancient Wood!" Seeing the serous liquid flowing out, Black Vine Boy and Little Green Coccidia immediately rushed forward and opened their mouths to drink. Ruotao and Gu Sangnu laughed and scolded: "You two little gluttons are so shameless, can't you wait and drink again?"
"No, sister." The boy said while drinking: "Look, this has all flowed out and fallen to the ground. If we don't drink it, wouldn't it be a waste?"
"If you're afraid of wasting it, I'll give you this, take it and continue."
With that said, Guan Heng handed Heiteng Boy a small stone gourd, and he immediately happily used it to catch the flowing ancient wood spiritual marrow. Who knew that the hole Guan Heng made was too small, and only a dozen drops of spiritual marrow flowed out. It slowly dried up.
"That's it?" The boy shook the stone gourd with a little disappointment on his face, but the little green coccidia eagerly came over to hug him. The boy scratched his head and then handed the ancient wood spiritual essence in his hand to the boy. Mouth: "Here, let me drink it for you."
"Squeak, squeak." Hearing this, the little green ball happily bit the gourd's mouth and took a few mouthfuls.
The ancient mulberry girl next to her said: "Something is wrong. I feel that the aroma around me is so strong. There must be more than a few drops of the ancient wood's spiritual essence."
"You're right." Guan Heng nodded slightly, and then said: "In my opinion, these plant rhizomes flowing with spiritual essence are not simple. When I cut them open just now, I felt that the surface of the rhizomes was as hard as iron, and it was actually very solid."
"Bang!" After hearing this, Gu Sangnu hit the root stem with the wooden staff, and suddenly whispered: "Oh, the shock made my wrist numb, it's really hard."
"But it is also true that the essence of ancient wood flows inside the rhizome of this plant."
Guan Heng said: "Now, we can make two choices. First, chop all the stems into pieces, and then collect the spiritual marrow that flows out. But no one knows how much there is, so how much harvest can be gained? , then it depends on luck.”
"Then what's the second option?" Qinghuang asked.
The sword spirit next to him said: "I understand what the master means. You want to find the source of this plant rhizome, tame it, and transplant it into the Ethereal Toad Cauldron. Then you will have the opportunity to obtain a steady stream of ancient wood spiritual marrow. Right?"
"That's right, you still understand me." Guan Heng smiled slightly and then said: "Since you can guess it, is there any way to help me find the source of this plant?"
"It should be fine, please wait a moment." After saying that, the sword spirit walked up to the huge root, stretched out his hand to press it, and stood quietly.
It wasn't until a few breaths later that the sword spirit spoke: "Master, this huge spiritual plant has derived wisdom, but it seems to have been severely damaged and is now very weak. If it hadn't been for the ancient wood spiritual marrow accumulated many years ago in its body, it would have been dead long ago. It has dried up and died.”
After a pause at this point, Sword Spirit continued: "Because it is very weak, it is very difficult to communicate with me. I only know that this spiritual plant calls itself 'Ancient Cloud Climbing Mango'. Master, it is asking us for help. Hopefully we can save it."
"Could it be that the ancient wood spiritual essence in Panyunman's body is not enough to help it recover from its weak state?"
Gu Sangnu raised this question, and Sword Spirit shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it won't work. Due to the lack of spiritual energy in the swamp area near the island, Panyunman can only reluctantly collect the spiritual marrow in his body to maintain his life."
"Okay, I can save it." After hearing these words, Guan Heng thought for a moment and said, "Where can I find the 'core' of Cloud Climbing Man, and I can start treating it when I get there."
"You can find it as long as you follow the path guided by the roots." The sword spirit said: "Master, everyone, please follow me." After saying that, he led everyone forward, and the cloud-climbing vine The rhizome slowly wriggles ahead, guiding the way forward.
…
After a while, Cloud Climbing Rhizome led everyone to an underground cave.
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish outburst..." I saw a few huge rhizomes scurrying close to the ground and gathering together, and then the hole was torn open and expanded to make it easier for everyone to pass through.
Sword Spirit said: "Master, let's go in now. It may be a little narrow inside. Please be careful where you step and don't stumble."
"Don't worry, we will pay attention." The girls and other companions said so.
At this moment, Guan Heng, Gu Sangnu and Sword Spirit took the lead in entering the cave. They saw that the surrounding environment was supported by large and small cloud-climbing vine roots, forming a passage.
As he walked, he glanced around, and then said: "It seems that the roots of the cloud climbing tree are all over the entire island. Could it be that it supports the structure of this island?"
"It's very possible." Sword Spirit nodded, and then said: "We can ask about it after we see it later."
"Look, it should be right here." Sword Spirit pointed to a rhizome in front of him that was half embedded in the rock wall and said, "I feel that the core aura of the ancient cloud-climbing vine is here."
"Okay, just let me communicate with it now." Guan Heng waved his hand to signal everyone to move away, then stepped forward and stretched out his hand to hold the rhizome containing the core of the cloud-climbing vine, slowly releasing his Mu Xuan aura.
At the same time, he could feel the core trembling slightly as it continued to absorb Xuanling's breath. It seemed that the other party also knew that this breath was of great benefit to him, so he kept absorbing it. "Yes, that's it. Just absorb it slowly."
