On the bank of the ancient river, in the valley not far from the former site of the Yan clan, a battle had come to an end. At this time, the tree demon had only left a huge black tree stump and was still struggling.
Although the tree demon usually does not move very fast, in the face of a life-and-death crisis like this, it relies on its huge root system to drill into the ground at a speed that is not slow at all.
Yan Cai had just retracted the divine spear he shot, and was about to go all out to annihilate the tree demon's consciousness. When he looked up, he found that the tree demon had already penetrated deep into the ground and was quickly heading towards the shadow of the secret realm deep in the earth's veins.
Obviously, not only Yan discovered this underground secret place, but as the real landlord in the valley, the tree demon also knew about its existence.
I just don’t know why it didn’t directly occupy this secret place before.
Seeing the movement of the tree demon, Xiang Yan felt a little anxious. After all, he was bound to win the secret realm now, but the insertion of the demon tree could easily cause unexpected situations.
However, the movement of the demon tree was too fast. By the time Yan could react, part of the tree demon's root system had already penetrated into the secret realm.
By this time, although Yan was still a little unwilling, he was no longer too anxious. After all, Yan has not figured out what is going on in the bottomless ravine in the secret realm until now.
Now that the demon tree has settled in the secret realm, it is better to let it explore the details of the secret realm first.
Having made a decision in his heart, Yan Shou's movements involuntarily slowed down a bit. He only controlled the light of merit to follow the tree demon, constantly forcing him to go deeper into the secret realm.
At the same time, Yan's mind was tense, and he was always paying attention to the changes in the secret realm, trying not to miss any subtle changes.
As the tree demon entered, there were indeed some changes in the secret realm, and the source of the changes was the ravine that Yan's divine eye had not been able to detect before.
I saw that as the tree demon entered, the black energy began to roll in the bottomless ravine in the center of the secret realm, and the yin energy and death energy became heavier and heavier.
Gradually, when the Yin Qi and Death Qi became extremely strong, a righteous Yang Qi and vitality emerged from them, gradually forming a pattern of Yin embracing Yang in the ravine.
At the same time, with the righteousness rising in the ravine, the vitality in the entire secret realm seemed to suddenly have a backbone and began to boil.
Gradually, the aura in the entire secret realm began to change, and a sacred aura full of righteousness and majesty began to envelope the entire secret realm.
The tree demon who had completely entered the secret realm suddenly lost the ability to move under the sacred aura. It shivered and suddenly fell to the center of the secret realm.
At this time, Yan Zai, who was standing outside the secret realm, was also affected. The sacred aura seemed to be able to travel through time and space, acting directly on his soul through Yan's prying eyes.
Suddenly, a majestic and vast aura enveloped the entire soul, causing Yan to instantly lose control of his body, and his consciousness was unable to move at all.
"Still caught!"
At this moment, Yan was feeling depressed. He didn't expect that even though he was so careful, he was eventually tricked and had no room to resist.
The current situation has exceeded Yan's own ability, and he can only hope that the few merit treasures under his control can automatically protect the Lord in critical moments.
However, Yan was obviously disappointed this time. Under this vast and sacred aura, several of his meritorious treasures showed no intention of moving at all.
Regarding this situation, Yan felt mixed feelings.
Because, when this happens, there are no more than two situations. Perhaps the vast sacred aura was too powerful and directly suppressed several merit treasures; or perhaps the merit treasures did not feel the danger in this aura.
However, it is not up to Yan to decide which situation it is. He is now like an outsider and can only passively wait for others to decide his life or death.
This helpless feeling of not being able to control life or death made Yan feel a little unstable for a moment.
While Yan was going through suffering, the tree demon in the secret realm was already desperate. Shrouded in that majestic and sacred aura, it prostrates on the ground, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
At the same time, a strange wave came out, sweeping across the tree demon's body, and all the things in its past came to mind uncontrollably.
"Punishment!"
A majestic and mysterious text fell out of thin air in his mind. The tree demon knew what it meant when he saw it. At the same time, an unknown feeling suddenly enveloped his heart.
Before the tree demon could react, the karmic resentment it had accumulated throughout its life suddenly boiled over and turned into a scarlet flame under the inexplicable power. It suddenly ignited from the heart of the tree demon and quickly spread throughout the body.
In just a moment, the tree demon didn't even have time to let out a scream. Its soul consciousness had quickly dissipated in the flames, leaving only a tree stump with a huge root system, lying abruptly in the secret realm.
At this time, Yan naturally didn't know that the tree demon had died in a strange way, and he was now experiencing a scene similar to the tree demon.
However, when that strange wave swept over, several artifacts inside and outside Yan's body finally reacted. They emitted bursts of black and yellow light, and directly led to the mysterious light of Yan's own merits.
And as the mysterious light of these merits rose, the strange fluctuations quickly receded, and at the same time, like a tree demon, a mysterious word appeared out of thin air in Yan's mind.
However, this is the word "reward".
As this magical word fell, the vast aura that had been shrouding Yan suddenly dissipated, and he instantly regained control of his body and consciousness.
"Is it over like this?" Yan moved his body, looked at the valley blankly, and suddenly felt at a loss.
Just now, he had inexplicably fallen into the biggest crisis in his life. Life and death were on the line, and he was helplessly waiting for God's judgment.
In the blink of an eye, he suddenly and inexplicably survived the crisis.
In the middle, except for the mysterious light of merit and virtue, he saw a mysterious word "reward", and he had no idea what was going on.
After being stunned for a moment, Yan quickly recovered. Although he was extremely afraid of the secret realm under the valley, but now that he sensed that the danger was temporarily over, he suppressed the idea of escape immediately and sat down on the spot.
The helpless feeling just now made Yan's Taoist heart fluctuate greatly. He was very afraid that now that he had escaped from this place, he would never have the courage to face this matter in the future, and thus lose the courage and will to explore the ancient wilderness and the great road.
Therefore, although you continue to stay here now, you will always face unknown risks. However, in a world like the prehistoric world, if he loses the courage to explore the avenue, it will be a matter of time before his path is cut off.
In the end, he could only struggle hard among the low-level gods and gods, becoming a powerful chess piece, and was involuntarily destroyed in a certain disaster.
After making a decision in his heart, Yan's mood calmed down.
After carefully sensing my body and soul again, I unexpectedly found that my luck had increased a lot. At the same time, my life span seemed to have increased a lot out of thin air.
"Is this the legendary interdependence of good and bad fortune?" Feeling the surprising changes in his body, Yan De was a little surprised and said to himself with a wry smile.
