"Donor, I'll attract its attention, and you'll attack." The mutated old monk looked at Zhao Yue.
"Understood." Zhao Yue nodded.
"Swish, swish, swish!" Thousands of tentacles came over from all directions.
"Drink!" The mutated old monk ran forward, using his powerful hands to create a gap.
More roots shot at the old monk. With the powerful force, the old monk kept walking and broke all the tree roots that came towards him.
Zhao Yue, who looked like a ghost, took advantage of the old monk to attract powerful firepower and quickly rushed towards the strange tree.
The roots of the strange tree have the power to block space, and Zhao Yue cannot teleport directly next to the strange tree.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
Hundreds of roots stabbed Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue dodged left and right, and his full burst of speed made it impossible for the roots to touch. Occasionally, a few roots stabbed Zhao Yue's body, but with his strong recovery ability, the wounds healed quickly.
"Zhao Yue! Hurry!" The mutated old monk's whole body has been entangled by the roots of the strange tree. There is only one pair of eyes left on his upper body, and he is obviously exhausted.
"Old monk, hold on a little longer!" Zhao Yue was covered in blood. He suffered a lot of injuries trying to get close to the strange tree.
"Crush it for me!"
Zhao Yue jumped into the air, his eyes were scarlet, and with all his strength, thousands of blood-red tentacles surged out from behind, connecting to form a blood-red heavy hammer, and smashed down towards the charred and broken tree trunk, and the strong wind roared. Ringing, the heavy hammer seems to have the power of a thousand catties.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
Thousands of roots rose up in front of the strange tree, forming a wall.
"boom!"
The 'heavy hammer' hit the 'wall', and a large number of blood-red tentacles broke off their roots and scattered fragments like snowflakes.
The mutated old monk's only eye was fixed on the 'heavy hammer', and his body once again erupted with a powerful force, shattering the roots that wrapped around his body.
"I'll help you, poor monk." The mutated old monk moved his legs and ran straight towards the strange tree with the momentum of a tiger.
"Continue! Press me down!" Zhao Yue roared and activated his powers with all his strength again. His face was visibly aging, and he looked like a middle-aged man in his forties. Blood-red tentacles sprouted out of his back again, and he was repaired. "Heavy Hammer", "Heavy Hammer" was raised again, carrying a huge force, and suddenly fell down.
"Hua Hua Hua..."
Because the mutant old monk had a lot of power on the strange tree, the 'heavy hammer' struck again, and the 'wall' shattered and a gap was created. The remaining roots spread up, trying to repair the wall, but the mutant old monk Approaching, the strange tree could only branch out a lot of roots to deal with the mutated old monk, and the 'wall' could not be restored for a while.
"Die!"
The momentum of the 'heavy hammer' did not decrease, and it continued to smash down until it hit the charred tree trunk hard.
"boom!"
The ground roared, and all the roots trembled wildly, like venomous snakes twisting their bodies in a death struggle. This blow obviously caused serious damage to the strange tree.
"Donor, continue! The strange tree is dying!" Seeing this situation, the mutated old monk immediately shouted a reminder.
"Huh..." Zhao Yue panted, his whole body was wet with sweat, mixed with blood, and slid down.
Zhao Yue's body couldn't bear it anymore after activating his superpower with all his strength twice in a row.
"Do it again!" Zhao Yue stood up, the wrinkles on his face gradually increased, and his age quickly increased to more than sixty years old. The blood-red hammer formed in front of him became thicker, and a terrifying aura erupted.
"call!"
The 'heavy hammer' swung from the side, carrying powerful force, and hammered the trunk of the strange tree again with a whistling sound.
"Bah bang bang!"
All the roots were weak and collapsed, lying on the ground squirming slightly, no longer as brave as before.
"boom!"
After one blow, the 'heavy hammer' quickly lifted up and struck again.
"puff!"
Zhao Yue spat out a mouthful of blood and swung the 'heavy hammer' countless times until all his strength was completely exhausted, and his face looked old and almost ninety.
The blood-red 'heavy hammer' dissipated and turned into tentacles that retracted behind Zhao Yue.
The roots on the ground had stopped moving, and no matter how hard Zhao Yue stepped on them, there was no reaction at all.
"Old monk, the strange tree is dead!" Zhao Yue looked excited and turned to look at the mutated old monk, but was stunned.
The only eye in the upper body of the mutated old monk was closed tightly, and he sat cross-legged on the ground with his hands clasped, motionless.
"Old monk, he's dead..."
Under the sense of life, the old monk no longer had any breath.
"Tap tap tap..."
A series of rapid and subtle jumping sounds came from the strange tree.
The pale yellow flesh-and-blood infection and the translucent infection with no specific shape jumped and ran towards Zhao Yue.
"Space infections, and flesh and blood infections." Zhao Yue saw these two infections, and his heart showed hunger.
"The infection that devoured the space ability last time has improved its space ability a lot."
"If your guess is correct, there should be nothing wrong with swallowing infected objects with the same ability."
"I am too weak now and have consumed too much life force. If I don't absorb other life force, I will die within a few minutes."
Zhao Yue was hunched over, his scarlet eyes dim.
"Try it." A tentacle slowly rolled towards the two infected objects.
"Buzz!"
The two infected objects instantly merged into the tentacles and penetrated into the body along the tentacles. Zhao Yue did not resist and allowed the two infected objects to penetrate.
"Ah..." Zhao Yue howled in pain, veins all over his body protruded like earthworms, and his entire body grew rapidly.
Three meters, five meters, ten meters... fifteen meters... twenty meters...
It wasn't until he reached thirty meters that Zhao Yue's body stopped growing, and tentacles sprouted from his skin, twisting and dancing like strips of seaweed on a submarine ship.
His body flickers from time to time, going back and forth between transparency and reality.
"It hurts! It really hurts!"
"It's like my mind and body are about to split apart."
"Crack me!" Zhao Yue's huge body suddenly bulged, as if something was about to come out from inside, and the bulge became larger and larger.
A lump of flesh and blood burst out of the body, dripping with blood. The flesh and blood fell to the ground and rapidly grew in size, forming a figure exactly like Zhao Yue.
"Phew! I feel much better." Zhao Yue's body gradually shrank until it shrank to the size of a normal person.
His appearance regained its youthfulness.
"This split figure seems to share the same consciousness with me." Zhao Yue thought, and the 'Zhao Yue' split from flesh and blood took a step forward and came to the front.
"Change your appearance." 'Zhao Yue's face squirmed with flesh and blood, and changed into Li Xuan's appearance.
After some simple experiments, Zhao Yue walked up to the mutated old monk and got a rough idea of the distraction.
"Old monk, thank you." Zhao Yue sighed, rolled up the broken wooden board next to him with his tentacles and walked into the Yunding Temple with the old monk's body.
Twenty minutes later.
The sun gradually rose, and the pale yellow sunlight slanted on the old Yunding Temple, drawing a shadow.
Next to the old Yunding Temple, two short earthen tombs stood silently. The tombstones made of wooden boards were written with two words, Wuhai, old monk.
"Old monk, I don't even know your name even after you die."
"It's just what I can do to bury you two together."
Zhao Yue looked at the tombstone, sighed, clasped his hands together, and bowed slightly to express his gratitude.
A root spread over and bent towards Zhao Yue.
"Towering tree, you protect the temple. I will come to see you when the time comes." Zhao Yue touched the roots.
ten minutes later.
"Where is this?" Zhang Ni woke up faintly and saw Zhao Yue's chin.
"Are you awake?" Zhao Yue's running figure stopped and put Zhang Ni down.
"I'm not in a temple? What?" Zhang Ni looked at Zhao Yue in surprise. After being controlled, her consciousness had long been blurred.
Zhao Yue's appearance also surprised her.
"I'll tell you on the way, come back with me first." Zhao Yue smiled at her.
Today I have to take everyone to the safe house.
