Worried that something might happen again, Gu Xiao leaned out a little bit and looked into the crack in the tree... But before he could lean out a little bit, he heard the sound of wind rising again in the silence, so he hurriedly pulled back.

It was a quiet place full of chaos and darkness, but just for a moment, a dark wind suddenly blew up, whistling and blowing to the bones. It was not only terrifying, but also as sharp as a knife. Fortunately, the young man was not careless, and he was blown away by the cold wind. At this time, he moved out of the way, but his hair was still brushed.

Looking at the chopped hair on the ground, Gu Xiao could only feel his heart beating hard, his chest heaving, and he was in shock. Murong Wu, who was accompanying him, also saw the sharpness of the cold wind and hurriedly asked: "are you OK?"

After taking a long breath and calming down, Gu Xiao whispered back: "Don't worry, girl... I think we are close to the foundation of this weird giant tree."

"Why are you so sure?" Murong Wu asked in confusion.

Although Gu Xiao did not look back, there was a look of determination in his eyes: "Girl, you might as well think about it, if you want to hide a secret, would you place the most powerful mechanism on the periphery, or at the foundation?"

The young man's words made Murong Wu's doubts clear. What he said was true. Only when two people approached the foundation of this strange giant tree could such a method of killing people appear.

"Do we really want to go into this crack to explore?" Murong Wu looked at the crack and asked worriedly.

"Crack—boom—"

Gu Xiao was about to speak, but he heard the sound of shattering coming from behind him, and then the sound of collapse was heard loudly, reaching the ears of the two of them.

"What is that?" Murong Wu looked nervous immediately and asked the young man.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Xiao suddenly realized: "What happened, it must be the juice from the branches earlier."

Liquid... I should have thought that just a few broken branches before would corrode the ground. So many branches rotted together, and now they must have corroded the rocks. The place where we stand is already a stone ground, and it is naturally corroded by the red color. Shattered, and this place is surrounded by water on three sides... I'm afraid it won't be long before it collapses. "

After saying this, he looked at Murong Wu whose expression changed slightly beside him. Gu Xiao tried his best to keep calm and not let her get too scared: "Girl, it seems that we can only go into this crack to explore. Listening to this movement, I guess this place is also holding on." It won’t be long.”

Hearing the young man's calm tone, Murong Wu felt a little relieved. She gritted her teeth and settled down, then followed the young man into the crack to explore.

Although Gu Xiao said it easily, with the sharp cold wind blocking the road in front of him and the sound of the ground collapsing behind him, he could not help but grit his teeth and take a closer look. After calming down, he slowly poked his head out along the crack again, but this time, instead of the sharp cold wind blowing up like before, he fell into silence.

Pulling his head back, Gu Xiao took a few long breaths and took a deep breath to relieve the tension in his heart. Then he gritted his teeth and dodged, held Broken Moon tightly, jumped up, and stood in front of the crack for a moment, concentrating on guard.

This test with his own body was really a helpless move. Gu Xiao just wanted to try and break the moon with his hands. Can he withstand the cold wind of the crack? If he was defeated, he could still think of a way to deal with it outside and then go inside to see if he could. If you resist, you can set off immediately.

Holding the sword across his chest, he waited for a moment, but the sharp cold wind did not rise again. Instead, there was tranquility. Not only did the young starry eyes not appear relaxed, but they became more solemn. His gaze was locked into the darkness of the crack. At this time, the cold wind came again. No matter what, at least it was over. He was able to test in advance and find out how to deal with it, but he fell into Ningxia in the cracks.

Quietly, there will only be one explanation.

"This is clearly an invitation for you to enter the urn... There may be something extraordinary hidden in the crack, so that the person who comes here will be careless... A sudden attack can kill you with one blow..." Gu Xiao Worried, he frowned and muttered to himself.

But at this time, the sound of shattering and collapse was approaching, reaching the young man's ears. He turned around and looked outside, only to see that the foothold outside the crack was already shaky. Murong Wu was looking sideways at the way he came, as if he was frightened.

Gu Xiao moved his eyes slightly and followed Murong Wu's eyes. Just as he expected, everything he saw was a sea of ​​bright red, which was constantly encroaching on the ground. But after staring for a moment, it was like a bright red sea wave, engulfing her.

Seeing that Murong Wu had not yet come to her senses, he immediately called out to her, and only then did she come back to her senses from the sight of the sea of ​​blood. Murong Wu turned around and wanted to jump onto the crack, but she lost consciousness for a short time. The sea of ​​red blood had silently swallowed her feet, causing the girl to stumble.

I couldn't help but stagger.

Not only that, the smoke and pungent smell rising from the sea of ​​blood made Murong Wu dizzy. She covered her nose with her sleeves, but she couldn't stop feeling faint, and everything in front of her eyes began to blur.

Seeing this, Gu Xiao knew that she was too weak to jump up the crack again, then pulled off the corners of her green shirt, tied it around her face, covered her mouth and nose, and jumped down from the crack...

In just a short moment, the sea of ​​​​yin red blood almost eroded away the place to stand, and only a slight protrusion could still stand. The boy stretched out some water, stepped on the snow, and jumped several times, and finally reached the girl's side. The sea of ​​​​yin red blood also To the edge of the feet.

He reached out to hold her shaky figure, without stopping, he stepped up and jumped into the crack of the giant tree, falling down.

After calming down, Fang looked back and saw that Yin Hong had swallowed up all the places he stood on...

The green shirt was still wet, so Gu Xiao pulled off the sleeves and wiped the face of the woman in his arms with cold moisture, finally making her wake up a little. Seeing that Murong Wu was fine, she felt a little relieved.

But before she could relax for a moment, she felt a violent shaking and shaking feeling. Murong Wu had just woken up a little, but something unexpected happened again. Her face was already pale, but her eyes followed the young man. With him by her side, she had a backbone.

"Oops, I think this sea of ​​blood has corroded the foundation of this tree, but I don't know how long this tree can last." As the shaking became stronger, the two of them were in the crack, and it seemed that they were falling over. The young man also showed signs of collapse. A bit panicked.

It was too late to carefully explore the cracks in the giant tree to see if there were any fatal traps. The only way to find a safe place as soon as possible was to find out. Gu Xiao stabilized his body and spoke urgently to Murong Wu: "We have to rush here. Before the tree collapses, even if you can't find an exit, you still have to find a place to stay."

Murong Wu knew that what the young man said was true, so she immediately agreed to the young man's request, and was about to investigate deeply where the two found the crack, but was stopped by the young man.

It turned out that Gu Xiao tried his best to control his body shape and looked around the scene of the crack, and then he noticed something unusual. If the crack where the two of them were standing was really split vertically, the two people's feet should be uneven, but now the crack under their feet was uneven. It feels, but it's abnormally flat.

He leaned over to check, and found that the giant tree under his feet was extremely smooth, as if it had been deliberately carved. He looked carefully, and his eyes suddenly shrank, and then he called Murong Wu.

Seeing that the young man was thinking hard after calling her, Murong Wu knew that he must have discovered something.

What a strange thing, immediately stabilize your body and wait quietly. The shaking and vibration still persisted. She looked at the young man as if he was in trance, frowning in deep thought, muttering something in his mouth. Murong Wu curiously leaned a little closer to listen to the young man's murmur.

"It's so flat... This tree suddenly appears here, it's deliberate... What's the use... Terracotta warriors, clay, lonely waterfalls, flames that are not afraid of water... That's right! Like the walking king of hell The road...I see...it's too late, I can only give it a try!"

The moment the young man finished speaking, the sword in his hand was already raised. Under Murong Wu's shocked gaze, he stabbed the sword into the gap between the two of them... If they had met for the first time, Murong Wu would have thought that the young man had gone crazy after experiencing many difficulties. , but along the way, I learned that his heart is firm and extraordinary things can shake his heart.

"Ding--"

Without pouring any internal force into the sword, he just stabbed with force. He did not see the red juice gushing out, but felt the force of the shock coming from the sword body into his palm. His inference was instantly confirmed, and Gu Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"If it weren't for the critical situation, I would never have taken such a risk. Fortunately, God bless me!" He was still thankful in his heart, and his overwhelming feeling became stronger. He pulled the young man out of his thoughts and turned to the girl beside him to speak.

"Come with me."

Murong Wu naturally heard the sound of the golden weapon stabbing the tree with the sword just now. She was still immersed in the wonder of how the young man found out about this. She was awakened by the young man's words and felt that the giant tree was about to collapse, so she hurriedly followed. The young man looked confused and said, "This giant tree is about to fall. Where are we going?"

When the words fell, the two of them had already jumped several feet. The young man in front stopped and murmured to himself: "That's almost it."

Then he looked back and asked Murong

Wu said: "Girl, do you still remember that we follow the marked place, and we will be ten or twenty feet away from here."

"Maybe? What's wrong?" Murong Wu was still puzzled.

"Where is this

What a giant tree, it was clearly a towering bridge. I had been wondering before, how could trees grow in this place surrounded by water on three sides but without sunlight? Then when we walked here, we were confused by those monsters that looked like branches, and we just thought this was it. The branches, until we jumped into the crack, I found that the crack was extremely flat, so I used the broken moon to test it, and found that the ground under my feet was not wood, but..."

The young man was talking eloquently, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a violent vibration. The two of them were almost knocked over by the force of the fall. They steadied their bodies and saw that they didn't have time to explain a lot, so they hurriedly told Murong Wu.

"We are at the end of the bridge, and we are all made of the melted blood of those monsters. Not to mention us, even the solid rocks have been corroded. When the endless bridge collapses and hits the water, if we still stand in the place where we first entered the fissure, , it will inevitably be splashed with red water pouring into the bridge..."

As he spoke, the force of the fall was mixed with a huge sound, which instantly obscured the young man's voice. He looked back at the "giant tree" that was gradually revealing its true appearance. The young man stretched out his hand, and for a moment, the weak and boneless slender hand was placed in his palm. He stood up and stepped on the snow for seven feet, heading towards the inclined slope and leaping away with all his strength.

Step on the water lightly, like an eagle soaring, and stars rushing towards the river.

The snow on the ground is lightly brushed, as if an arrow is flying fast, and the empty steps are too clear.

In the blink of an eye, it was more than ten feet straight. At this moment, the bridge deck finally hit hard. Just as the young man said, it landed on the water where the two people fell before.

A huge impact accompanied by water splashed into the bridge. Gu Xiao saw the water waves coming from both sides and held Murong tightly.

With the help of Wu's palm, the power of movement was restored, and the clouds flew out quickly, soaring upward for more than several feet to avoid the waves.

Murong Wu was frightened by this scene and was still thinking carefully about what the young man had just explained. It was not until the young man stood up with his body in the wind and looked down that she understood what the young man said.

As the roaring sound came faintly from the other end of the endless water, the "bridge" he mentioned finally showed its true appearance, spanning the endless water, and the strange scenery in the water was even more unforgettable for Murong Wu. The red blood waves and the dark lake water have clear boundaries, and the blue and red meet each other. It is like the road to Fengdu, which is breathtaking...

What Murong Wu saw, Gu Xiao naturally had a panoramic view of, the clouds had lost their momentum and landed gracefully on the bridge, barely avoiding the waves of red blood.

Looking at the two colors in the water close at hand, the water in contact with the red blood wave is corroded by it, like boiling water, and is still emitting a disgusting smell. On the contrary, the bridge the two of them stand on has not been damaged at all. Murong Wu swallowed her saliva repeatedly, calmed down for a moment, and turned to the young man aside. Seeing that his chest was also rising and falling, she calmed down in shock, and couldn't help but ask about the doubts in her heart.

"Why is it that a rock as solid as a rock can be swallowed up by this bright red corrosion, but this bridge deck is fine?"

"The five elements are in conflict with each other..." The young man calmed down and murmured.

Before Murong Wu could ask any more questions, the young man waved his palm to disperse the dust on the bridge, revealing his true appearance. Murong Wu looked sideways and suddenly understood.

The young man finally thought about the confusion that had been hanging in his mind and murmured: "At the bottom of the concave valley, the soldiers and warriors belong to earth; the lonely waterfalls and waterways all belong to water; the monsters standing in the waterways all belong to water. Fire; the monster here looks like a branch, naturally belonging to wood;

Then this bridge is made of metal... In this way, it has all five shapes..."

Having said this, the young man glanced at the place where the red color blended with the lake, full of awe...withdrew his gaze, turned around, looked at the endless bridge ahead, and murmured.

"To be able to use the Five Elements method to lay out such a sure-kill formation, not to mention a hundred or ten people, even if there are thousands of troops and horses, no one can escape... Such ruthlessness, setting up this formation... is heaven after all Immortal, or a demon in the world..."
