384 Aren’t we bullying the mentally retarded?
As the demon realm came into view, more and more vines emerged from the cracks, bringing a stronger and stronger sense of oppression.
The second elder realized that the situation was not good, so he retreated to the side of the sixth elder, intending to protect them as they left.
However, the vines in the sky were like green lightning, and they fell in front of them with a "pop".
The vines slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a bottomless gully in the scorched earth.
Fortunately, the second elder reacted quickly enough and led everyone to avoid the attack, so they were not killed.
After fighting for such a long time, the Second Elder finally showed signs of weakness, which made Jing Yunpeng very happy: "Your Majesty, it was she who ruined your good fortune!"
The second elder suppressed his uneasiness and raised his eyebrows to ask, "What good thing of yours did I ruin?"
Her answer was an even more violent attack from the vines.
The second elder could only protect everyone and escape in a panic, without any ability to fight back.
At the same time, these vines also attacked Mu Zisong, Ao Yu and Qiu Yeluo.
The three of them were in a very bad situation.
Shen Muse trembled while holding the alchemy furnace containing Jiang Xiao, not understanding how long his junior brother would hide before coming out to cause trouble.
He was afraid that if his junior brothers and sisters continued to suffer, they, the senior brothers and several elders, would be in trouble.
Just then, Ana Shen felt a shadow cast over his head.
The dense vines in the crack in the sky had extended to the end at some point, and a giant tree appeared there.
The word "Devourer" immediately appeared in Shen Muse's mind, shocking his brain so much that it stopped thinking.
Most of this giant tree is still a phantom, and through its unreal branches one can see the dark and deep endless starry sky.
The branch that connects countless vines is very solid, and the greatest sense of oppression comes from here.
That was part of the Devourer's true form.
This thing crossed the barrier of the Tiancheng Spirit World and, with the help of the connection between the main body and the vines, infiltrated into the Tiancheng Spirit World bit by bit.
The sense of oppression it brought was getting stronger and stronger. If Ning Yao and the others were not protected by top-grade secret treasures, just feeling this pressure would be enough to make them bleed from all seven orifices and die.
Shen Muse trembled as he held the alchemy furnace containing Jiang Xiao, and patted the furnace with both hands, trying to remind Jiang Xiao of what was happening in the outside world.
However, there was no response in the furnace, as if Jiang Xiao was not inside.
The threat posed by the Devourer became greater and greater, and finally all of its clones infiltrated into the Tiancheng Spirit World, instantly absorbing all the spiritual energy and vitality around it.
The solid tree trunks trembled comfortably in the air, and all the vines twisted with joy, madly absorbing all the spiritual energy and vitality around them.
In order to obtain the Devourer's protection, Jing Yunpeng was the closest.
He suddenly found that the spiritual energy in his body was rapidly dissipating and being absorbed by these vines. His face changed drastically: "Your Excellency, it's me! I..."
Before he could finish his words, the Devourer seemed to have annoyed him for being too long-winded. Vines quickly wrapped around Jing Yunpeng's body, blocking his mouth and drilling into his nostrils, eyes and ears, frantically absorbing his life force.
In less than a moment, the Demon King, who was in the early stage of tribulation, turned into a handful of yellow sand in front of everyone and scattered to the ground through the gaps between the vines.
Everyone was horrified. Even the four Wanlihong monsters who believed they were on the side of the Devourers were horrified, as if they were mourning the death of the rabbit.
The four demons simultaneously distanced themselves from the vines surrounding them.
Mu Zisong, Ao Yu and Qiu Yeluo gathered around the second elder at the same time, intending to join forces to fight the enemy.
The Devourer didn't care about their thoughts. He was like a hungry and thirsty madman, madly absorbing the spiritual power and vitality here.
With the solid tree trunk as the center, desolation and silence quickly spread around.
At this speed, it won’t be long before the entire Tiancheng spiritual world will turn into a dead place without any spiritual power or vitality.
The Devourer isn't even satisfied with that.
Realizing that there were still high-level monks here, these vines took the initiative to attack everyone present, trying to absorb them directly.
Everyone witnessed Jing Yunpeng's death, and no one wanted to repeat the same mistake, so they all retreated with all their might.
The vines kept chasing after him, and Wanlihong angrily set off a fire. Although it could burn the vines close to him, it had no effect on the body of the Devourer - the solid tree trunk.
Even though they have reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage, which is something that many cultivators cannot even dream of, the difference between their cultivation levels is still so great that it is difficult to measure.
Those burnt vines were nothing but phantoms formed by the condensation of spiritual power; the real entity was only that small section of solid tree trunk.
Wanlihong's attack only delayed the time he was entangled by the vines. Soon the Devourer condensed new vines, and these new vines attacked Wanlihong again.
There were so many vines that they looked like a dense mass of hair. Wanlihong's flames didn't even have time to burn before his hands and feet were entangled by the vines.
She was startled.
In just a moment of distraction, the layers of vines entangled her entire body. Wanlihong was instantly unable to move and could only feel the spiritual power and vitality in her body rapidly draining away.
She struggled desperately but was powerless. She was extremely desperate, but unexpectedly, the vines that absorbed her spiritual power and vitality suddenly stopped and relaxed.
Wanlihong quickly broke free from the vines and looked in the direction where the vines were spreading. She saw a small figure appear not far away.
It’s Jiang Xin!
The little girl was holding a bunch of broken vines in her hands. It was she who twisted the vines and saved Wanlihong just now.
Wanlihong was stunned.
She just wanted to kill this child, but this child could actually break these strange vines with his bare hands...
Even if she had a secret treasure to protect her, it would be impossible for her to do this.
There is something wrong with this child!
She looked back eagerly at the Second Elder and the others, and saw that the alchemy furnace in Shen Muse's arms was pushed open from the inside. Jiang Xiao jumped up and actually jumped directly into the air with the boost.
"Senior Sister, use your great fist!" He swung his flaming little fist hard, hitting the solid tree trunk, causing it to dent and setting it on fire.
The tree trunk seemed to be frightened and quickly retreated, abandoning the burning part to prevent the fire from spreading.
Halfway back, the tree trunk suddenly braked and stopped, as if it had discovered something extremely terrifying.
Behind it, Jiang Xin was looking forward to it: "Coward, why are there only so few clones?"
"That's right. We were afraid that you would see us and didn't want to show up, so we hid ourselves." Jiang Xiao snorted in dissatisfaction, and he and Jiang Xin blocked the tree trunk from the front and the back.
At this moment, it seemed as if the two of them were the villains, and the tree trunk was just a poor little thing that was persecuted.
Shen Musi finally understood why Jiang Xiao had just hidden in his alchemy furnace, but he was even more puzzled: "At the beginning, the Devourer withdrew because he saw the Junior Sister and Junior Brother. Why did the Devourer think they were not there because these vines didn't see them?"
Everyone looked at each other, no one knew the answer.
Lin Yan, however, relied on his intuition as a fortune teller and said thoughtfully, "I don't know the specific principle, but I guess it's possible that the Devourer's rationality is running out, and he has too much information to receive. He couldn't sort out these relationships for a while, so he made a wrong decision. Moreover, this is a great opportunity to go deep into the Tiancheng Spirit Realm and absorb vitality and spiritual energy. He didn't want to give up, so he took the risk and came here."
Chu Linfeng was surprised: "With such a high level of cultivation, how can his intelligence still decrease?"
Normally no one would think about this, but now...
Ning Yao said in a deep voice: "Junior Sister said that the Devourer now only has the instinct to devour and the attachment to returning home. It is possible..."
It is possible that the Devourer really does not have much IQ left.
If he had a sane mind, he would have known that his home was long gone.
Just when everyone accepted this explanation, the Sixth Elder suddenly asked, "Doesn't that mean we are bullying the mentally retarded?"
Others: “…”
There is no need to have such a strong sense of morality at this time.
