373 The counterfeit appears
In order to take root in the natural spiritual world and avoid being pulled out before it grows up, the branches of the World Tree have a low sense of presence, making it easy for people to ignore its existence.
Jiang Xin and the others had forgotten about this, and the Second Elder himself didn't think about it either.
The graceful body turned into a fluttering butterfly, and the second elder's body disappeared on the spot, quietly going towards the Mayfly Palace.
Even though the Sixth Elder has a chance of encountering a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage when he goes to the Dragon Cave, the Second Elder also faces considerable risks when he goes to the Mayfly Palace.
First of all, Qiongqi went to the Mayfly Palace more than ten years ago.
Everyone speculated that the Devourer's demon clan member was in the fusion stage at that time, and now that so many years have passed, it is very likely that he has been promoted to the tribulation stage.
It would be very dangerous if the second elder met the other party in the Mayfly Palace.
Secondly, the Mayfly Palace is Feng Hen’s cave residence, which contains countless protective measures.
Qiongqi can only enter and exit safely because of his cultivation in the Tribulation Period. The Second Elder has not yet crossed the threshold of the Tribulation Period. Once the cave protection is triggered, he will face attacks at the Tribulation Period level.
She asked the Sixth Elder to go to the Dragon Cave, indeed to take care of her junior brother.
Now the Second Elder can only hope that the Moonlight Bracelet is powerful enough to allow her to escape unscathed even if she really encounters danger.
The second elder subconsciously touched the bracelet and inexplicably felt it was a bit cumbersome. He looked down and saw the dry branch in his hand. He was suddenly awakened and shivered with fear.
The pink butterflies dancing in the air trembled, revealing the figure of the Second Elder.
How did she take this thing away!
I have to go back and find Xinxin quickly.
The Second Elder turned around and wanted to look for the Sixth Elder, but her right hand, which was holding the dead branch, was suddenly shocked, and her whole body became numb and froze in place, unable to move for a while.
The few tender buds on the dead branches grew wildly and turned into thorny vines that wrapped around the Second Elder's arm, immediately piercing her fair skin and drilling into her flesh, madly absorbing the Second Elder's vitality and spiritual power.
The second elder activated the Moonlight Bracelet, and the Tribulation Power that overflowed from it allowed her to regain her freedom. She immediately summoned all the spiritual power in her body to force out all the vines that had penetrated into her body.
However, the dead branch seemed to be stuck to her hand and could not be thrown away.
"You're a bully who only fears the strong and bullies the weak! As soon as Xinxin left, you started to act like a troublemaker, right? Do you really think I'm a soft persimmon?" The second elder ignored the pain and used his spiritual power to transform into a sharp knife, quickly cutting off the flesh on the palm of his hand that was connected to the dead branch.
Bright red blood flowed from her palm. The dead branch fell down along with the peeled flesh, and suddenly it turned in the air as if it had life, and flew straight towards the second elder.
“Get out!” The second elder turned into a butterfly and disappeared on the spot.
She originally wanted to take this opportunity to go find Jiang Xin directly, but she didn't expect that an extremely powerful force would fall from the sky halfway and force her to reveal her body from the butterfly.
The sky, which was clear blue not long ago, was slowly gathering with a thick layer of dark clouds, and a terrifying pressure enveloped every corner.
The second elder wanted to use space magic to escape, but unexpectedly failed.
The entire area has been blocked off and no space magic can be used.
Cold sweat gradually seeped out of her forehead.
The dead branches of the World Tree rushed towards her again, trying to use her as nourishment to nourish itself.
The second elder narrowly avoided it and quickly threw out seven flying knives to set up a formation, temporarily trapping the branches.
Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the Second Elder suddenly realized something and quickly threw a flying knife to the upper right.
Wherever the flying knife passed, ripples appeared in the space.
The silver-white flying knife sank into the void and disappeared, followed by a crisp "clang" sound. The spiritual power caused by the metal collision broke through the barrier, revealing the scene behind layers of space ripples.
A young man with an elegant appearance stood out in the air, and his aura of being at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing Stage was clearly evident.
The man was wearing a blue shirt with a mayfly flying on the sea embroidered on it.
He casually waved away the flying knife fragments floating in front of him and smiled at the second elder.
The Second Elder didn't recognize him, but his heart sank a little bit.
It was not because this man's cultivation level in the Tribulation Crossing Stage that frightened her, but because the aura emanating from him was very familiar, and the Second Elder had just come into contact with it not long ago.
——That was Fenghen’s breath.
Feng Hen has already fallen. The only person who can appear in front of people in this form can be an accomplice from the demon clan who is impersonating him.
I just don't know if the peak of the Tribulation Period that the other party is showing now is his real cultivation level, or if he is just using the secret treasure to bully others.
Before he could make a move, the Second Elder cast a healing spell on himself to stop the bleeding.
Then, she responded with a charming smile: "Little brother, you are so handsome, may I ask your name?"
"My name is Feng Hen." said the other party.
I'm going to fuck you#￥%...&*
The second elder cursed in her mind a string of dirty words that didn't fit with her character as a charming cultivator.
The second elder pretended to be shocked and asked with his hands covering his mouth, "Is it Senior Feng Hen, the Demon King of the Mayfly Clan?"
The other party nodded: "Besides this, who else is Feng Hen?"
"Wow~ I am so lucky. I didn't expect to have the honor to meet you. Did you come here specially to wait for me, little brother?" The second elder's eyes flew seductively, and the power of charm was at full power.
Maybe her efforts paid off, but Fake Fenghen hesitated to attack her: "I was waiting for you. Where did you get this branch?"
“I…” The second elder wanted to lie and say that he picked it up, but he stopped in time when the words came to his lips.
As the Devourer's insider, this impostor must have sensed something to rush over.
Maybe it was the Devourer who tipped him off directly.
If the lie is too ridiculous, not only will it fail to stabilize the other party, it may also backfire.
After thinking it over again and again, the second elder decided not to tell the whole truth: "I got it from a child."
"Child?" Fake Fenghen was surprised. Seeing that the Second Elder did not refute, he became more suspicious, "What child?"
"What a cute child." The second elder continued to tell the truth.
Fake Fenghen looked up at the sky and saw that the sky with dark clouds did not change further. He frowned and wondered what kind of child could get this thing.
He didn't remember any old monster in the Tribulation Crossing Stage having the form of a child. Could it be that someone was disguised as a child?
The fake Feng Hen released his spiritual consciousness, which spread over thousands of miles, but he was unable to find anyone who agreed to this condition.
"What's your name? Why did the child give you the branch?"
The second elder made a foolproof move: "I was curious and wanted to take a look, so she gave it to me. Just call me Zhizhi, little brother."
There are not many Mei Xiu in the Fusion Stage, and Fake Fenghen guessed the identity of the Second Elder after a little thought: "Are you Gu Qingzhi?"
"Little brother, you know me?" The second elder pretended to be surprised, with a smile on his face, as if waiting for him to reveal his identity.
She didn't intend to hide her identity, otherwise she would have just given a fake name.
"Hehe, you are quite famous. You have caused Mu Zisong and others to cause chaos in the Demon Realm." The fake Feng Hen mentioned this matter with a little dissatisfaction, and he really had the demeanor of the lord of the Demon Realm.
none of your business?
The second elder cursed inwardly, but his face was still full of charm, and I felt pity for him: "Brother Zisong's methods are too extreme, and I am afraid. I beg Brother Fenghen to pity me and let me live a peaceful life for a few days, okay?"
As she spoke, her body quietly transformed into a butterfly, and came to Feng Hen, leaning against him softly and bonelessly.
