During these days of seclusion in the mountains, Wen Yuan was happier than ever.
She gets along well with every race here, and even got to know a brand new race - the Gugu clan.
As the name suggests, a race evolved from fungi.
Before this, Wen Yuan had never heard any news about the mushroom tribe. It could even be said that there had never been a living mushroom on the entire continent.
The Gugu clan are shorter than the Lingcao clan, but their abilities are also unexpected...
"You mean... every mushroom can grow into a towering umbrella in an instant to block damage?"
Wen Yuan was chatting with the leader of the Gugu clan at this time. This was... a bamboo fungus.
"That's right, and the abilities of our mushroom tribe are far beyond your imagination. Not only can we grow into towering fungi in an instant, we can also heal each other while resisting damage. When attacked, those poisonous fellow tribe members will spew out The spores attack the opponent."
This sounds really disgusting. They can defend and attack. The most important thing is that they can heal each other... This is so outrageous. Why haven't I heard of them before?
"Our mushroom clan has always been indifferent to worldly affairs and kept a low profile, so if we don't show up often, you wouldn't recognize us." Zhusun's proud look reminded Wen Yuan of Shen Huaiyan for some reason.
He sometimes spoke in this manner. It could be seen that Wen Yuan, who was distracted, did not hear Zhusun's next words, which made Zhusun very unhappy, "Hey! You have to listen carefully when others are talking, how can you be distracted!"
"Ah, I'm really sorry. Just keep going. I'll listen to you well this time."
This time Wen Yuan did listen to what Zhusun said, but what she said was what Ake was interested in.
She is now very interested in incorporating this race. If they are included in her own Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss, it will have an extra layer of protection when fighting with the God Realm in the future.
"Well, you can join us in the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss."
Wen Yuan suddenly remembered a piece of wood he saw in the black abyss. If nothing went wrong, these mushrooms must be very interested in that piece of wood.
Zhusun looked at Wen Yuan like a madman, "Why do you think I will agree to you? I only talked to you because you have a kind heart, otherwise you would think I care about you."
This little Zhusun was really unpleasant to talk to. Wen Yuan made an offer that she couldn't refuse, "Do you know... Deadwood?"
Dead wood? Upon hearing these two words, all the mushroom tribe's eyes widened.
"How do you know about Deadwood?! What else do you know?"
Seeing Zhusun so excited, Wen Yuan knew that he had made the right bet, "I know where the dead wood is."
As soon as Zhusun heard this, she understood that Wen Yuan was going to benefit. She said generously: "Tell me what you want. As long as you tell me where the dead wood is, I can agree to all your requests, except for letting us Join your abyss of demons.”
Ha... Seeing the weird smile on Wen Yuan's face, Zhusun suddenly felt something was wrong, but she believed that Wen Yuan would not do anything to harm them.
"I won't ask you to join the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss, but... if you want to get the Dead Wood, you must be tied to the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss."
"Why do you say that?"
Wen Yuan continued to smile maliciously, "Because the Dead Wood is in the deepest and most dangerous place in the Abyss of Demons. Only I can take you there, and no one else can."
Zhusun knew how dangerous the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss was, but she didn't expect that Wen Yuan, a seemingly kind-hearted girl, would take the opportunity to threaten them with such an important thing.
"Since you want to get dead wood, you must know everything about dead wood. You should know where dead wood will grow and what will happen if it leaves the land where it lives, right?"
Yes...it was precisely because of Zhusun's understanding that he did not dare to reject Wen Yuan right away, "You continue."
"I have never known the Gugu Clan, so you should know that our meeting was purely coincidental. I do believe in fate, so you might as well consider joining the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss so that you can get the dead wood."
Zhusun couldn't make this decision with a mushroom, so she asked Wen Yuan to leave temporarily, "We still need to discuss this matter internally. You come back here in three days, and I will give you an answer by then."
Wen Yuan agreed and she left quickly.
As soon as she walked out of the place where the mushroom tribe lived, the mushrooms immediately surrounded Zhusun, "Chief, is what she said true? Could she be lying to us?"
"I don't think so. After all, she was really shocked when she saw us for the first time. She must have never heard of us." Gu Gujia said.
Another older Guduo stroked his beard and said: "I think what she said is true. If you don't know the dead wood, you won't know that it is of great help to the cultivation of our mushroom tribe. .”
A group of mushrooms were chatting at each other, making Zhusun's head spin. "Okay, stop arguing. The most important thing for us now is whether we should compromise and join the Ten Thousand Demons Abyss."
A matsutake stood up at this time, "I think she is trustworthy, and when Yun Zhongmiao was governing the demon clan, it was the happiest time for us, wasn't it? Then why don't we try to trust his daughter, I I believe... Yun Zhongmiao's daughter is not a warlike person like him, so why not take this risk?"
Taking risks means paying a huge price. In fact, Zhusun also wants to take a risk for the dead wood. "There is already a mushroom that is willing to try it. Is there anyone else who wants to join?"
At first, only a few mushrooms jumped up, and then more and more mushrooms jumped up, until finally unanimously passed, "Okay, if this is the case... then let's believe her once. The three tribes that have not been involved in many years, This time I'm just afraid...sigh..."
Even if she didn't say the following words, other mushrooms would understand what Zhusun meant.
But it’s worth taking the risk for the dead wood that has been sought for millennia.
In the evening, Zhusun discussed today's events with his best friend, "You said nothing today, I want to hear your opinion."
"The decision we made is correct. There is no doubt about the importance of dead wood to the mushroom tribe. We can only maintain the prototype of mushrooms for so many years because we cannot reach a higher level. After surviving on dead wood, we can not only If you break through and transform into a human form, you can even have greater power... At that time, you won't accept any conditions negotiated with Wen Yuan."
Yes... the dead wood is too important to the mushroom tribe. Although it is called dead wood, it is not really dead. It is named dead wood because of its peculiar appearance and way of living.
If they could take root in the dead wood, the Gugu clan... would probably become the fourth most powerful race on the continent.
Wen Yuan came as promised three days later. She got straight to the point when she arrived, "How is it? Have you considered it? Do you want to join the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss? Time waits for no one... Oh no, it doesn't wait for mushrooms."
"We join the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss, but we also have conditions."
"The dead wood must belong to our Gugu family, and no one can interfere, including you."
"No problem." Zhusun didn't expect Wen Yuan to agree so simply. This is dead wood. Even if it is ground into powder and made into pills, it is of great use. Why is it no different from ordinary trees in her eyes.
But in Wen Yuan's eyes, this dead wood is really no different from ordinary wood... Because there are so many in the black abyss, even if the entire mushroom tribe moves there, it won't be able to fill one third of the dead wood there. Wood.
But Wen Yuan didn't tell them about this, so he just regarded it as a surprise for these little guys. "Now that it's settled, let's do it."
She couldn't wait to take these mushrooms back to the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons. After tearing open the rift in space, Wen Yuan quickly urged them to go there, fearing that the mushrooms would regret it, "Come on, come on."
Although space cracks can transport people to many places, the Black Abyss is one of the forbidden places that cannot be reached, so Wen Yuan can only transport them to the Demon Realm first.
I happened to bump into the Mirror of the Ghost who was singing, "Hey! Mirror of the Ghost, I'm back!"
Wen Yuan's sudden appearance startled Jigui Mirror, "Are you going to die?! Didn't you go to practice alone? Why did you come back so soon?"
"Hehe, I brought something good back."
"What is it?" Seeing that the crack in the space had not yet closed, Jigui Mirror looked behind Wen Yuan curiously, "What, what, what? Tell me quickly!"
Wen Yuan walked to the space crack mysteriously, "Dang-dang-dang! It's them!"
"The mushroom clan? Aren't they extinct a long time ago? Where did you find them? And..." Jigui Mirror was dumbfounded as he looked at the mushrooms that continued to enter the demon realm, "There are so many..."
Unexpectedly, the first thing Zhusun did when he came here was to scold Jigui Mirror, "Hey! You black thing! Who is extinct? You are the only one who became extinct!" Jigui Mirror rarely shut up.
Wen Yuan brought the group of mushrooms to the entrance of the Black Abyss. She carefully reminded Zhusun and the others, "You must be strong. Those who fail the test will not be able to enter. But with me taking you... you should not encounter What danger."
What do you mean, it’s too hasty! Zhusun was roaring in his heart, but his face was unusually calm, "Now that we are here, we are ready, let's get started."
Wen Yuan finally led them into the entrance. After a long period of spinning, the Gugu family finally landed safely outside Heiyuan's cabin.
At this time, Wen Yuan was sitting in the room drinking tea, "It's finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me."
"Shouldn't the Black Abyss be a place of death where you can't even see your fingers? Do you think this has anything to do with death?"
Looking at the black abyss where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, the Gugu family were all dumbfounded. "Hahaha, it's weird. I was like this when I first came here, but I got used to it later. Let's go."
After walking for who knows how long, just when they began to doubt the authenticity of what they said, Wen Yuan finally found the forest of dead wood, "This... this is..."
Zhusun was dumbfounded when he saw the countless dead trees, "This... you didn't say there were so many dead trees!"
"I wanted to give you a surprise, so I never said anything. How are you? Are you satisfied? Is the dead wood here enough for your clan mushrooms to practice?"
"Enough, enough!" That's enough! Zhusun turned his head and looked at Wen Yuan gratefully, "I also made a right bet."
also?
