"Something is resurrecting?"
When Fa Ming and the other two heard Xue Kong's words, they were shocked and immediately released their spiritual sense to scan the surroundings. However, they soon became puzzled and said, "Nothing unusual is happening."
Xue Kong raised his head, pointed to the place where the wood attribute spiritual energy was the most concentrated, and said, "The anomaly is there. If we want to get through this place, we must break through it."
Among the three, only Fa Ming trusted Xue Kong more. He stopped hesitating and used his magic weapon to blast towards the direction Xue Kong pointed.
However, the magic weapon was still halfway there when the vines that had originally attacked them all stopped and strangely changed direction, rushing towards Fa Ming's magic weapon one after another, and were constantly smashed to pieces.
Seeing this scene, even Ma Debao and Yun Juan, who did not trust Xue Kong enough, immediately reacted with bright eyes: "They are blocking it. It seems that there is indeed a mystery here."
"Let's attack together and blast this place open!"
Ma Debao and Yun Juan used their methods together and attacked that position.
Xue Kong narrowed his eyes slightly, but stood there motionless.
"The thing hiding in the back is probably at the Jindan level. It's not a cultivator, but a... monster." He held the Heavenly Sword in his hand and stared at it intently.
Ever since Fa Ming and the other two used their methods there, the vines in this space stopped attacking them and came to block them together.
In Xue Kong's sight, one fluorescent flower after another dimmed, and the breath of the monster there became stronger and stronger. This strange phenomenon proved one point very clearly.
"It turns out that this fluorescence is a means to suppress it. The fluorescence suppresses its strength. We help it extinguish the fluorescence, and its strength is constantly recovering!" Xue Kong saw this.
Then, without hesitation, he moved forward and immediately shouted, "The three of you retreat and stop attacking the vines."
His figure was like a ghost, passing by in a flash.
Fa Ming and the other two were surprised to see his figure moving so fast, but the words they heard immediately brought them back to their senses. The three of them quickly retreated and gathered together.
If it were at the beginning, Ma Debao and Yun Juan would not obey Xue Kong's command.
However, both of them saw that Xue Kong was an extraordinary person, so they listened to him obediently and stopped cutting the vines. They only did simple defense.
"【Spring leaves are in full bloom】!"
A big tree appeared behind Xue Kong, with countless branches extending out to block the vines coming towards Xue Kong. Then Xue Kong's speed burst out again, and he arrived at the destination in an instant. He raised his hand and pointed, directly blasting a big hole in the wall formed by the vines in front of him.
From the huge hole that was blasted out, Xue Kong and the other three all focused their eyes and looked inside.
All four of them showed surprise on their faces.
"It is indeed a monster in the Jindan stage, and it is a... tree monster!" Xue Kong's eyes focused, he grabbed the Heavenly Sword, stood at the entrance of the big cave, and met eyes with a tree monster that was a hundred feet tall inside.
The tree demon's body was huge and looked like it was made of vines. There was a dazzling fluorescent light on its body, flashing and suppressing the tree demon here.
However, because Xue Kong and the other three had extinguished too much fluorescent light, the tree demon now showed a look of relief on its face, and a hint of excitement flashed in its two scarlet eyes like red lanterns.
"It's been three hundred years... I have been suppressed here by that old guy for three hundred years, and finally I have the chance to escape!" The tree demon's voice was hoarse, and people who heard it got goosebumps.
"Human, give me your strength to help me escape!"
"You are only in the middle stage of Jindan, and you dare to order me around!" Xue Kong snorted coldly. He no longer hid his strength. His cultivation in the early stage of Jindan suddenly burst out, forming a strong wind that blew violently.
All the vines that were originally attacking from all directions were blown away and rolled back.
"This, this is!?" Fa Ming's eyes widened in disbelief. "I was originally wondering, when I met him on Earth Demon Island, he was already in the late Foundation Establishment stage. My cultivation has improved over the past ten years, but he hasn't changed at all."
"It turns out...it turns out that he hid his cultivation level. In just ten years, he broke through to the Jindan stage!" Fa Ming's eyes were filled with shock and envy.
"Jiedan!?"
"He is a Jindan cultivator!?" Ma Debao and Yun Juan were both shocked, looking at Xue Kong's back in disbelief, feeling extremely fortunate that they did not become enemies with Xue Kong.
"Hand over the treasure left here by the powerful monk who suppressed you!" Xue Kong said coldly.
The tree demon's eyes were bloodshot, and the vines around its body began to twitch wildly. Its voice was hoarse, "Come and take it if you dare! The old man thought he could suppress me with that thing, but he didn't expect that it also accelerated my growth and enabled me to form a pill!"
“It was the old guy who made me who I am!”
"Hmph! Monster, I'll take your blood and essence to help me practice!" Xue Kong snorted coldly, took a big step forward, and headed straight for the tree monster. He had just scanned the area with his spiritual sense, and apart from the tree monster, there was no other threat here.
As the figure moved, the body-refining corpse emerged from Xue Kong's storage bag. As soon as it appeared, it threw a powerful punch.
boom!
This punch contained the strong Qi and blood power of a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan, as well as the power of his refined flesh. With this punch, even a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan would be forced to retreat.
But this punch hit the tree demon hard.
In an instant, countless vines broke, and the tree demon let out a shrill scream, but a loud laugh rang out from its mouth: "Yes, that's it, keep going!"
"Help me break the power that is suppressing me, and I will be able to escape."
Although the punch from the Body Refining Corpse injured the tree demon, it also destroyed a large amount of its fluorescence and unlocked its power. If a cultivator in the middle stage of the Core Formation Realm took this punch head-on, he would be injured at best, and his body would collapse at worst.
However, this tree demon was very strong and only suffered minor injuries.
Xue Kong put away the Heavenly Sword and strode forward with an extremely cold expression. He stepped to the top of the tree monster's hundred-foot-tall body, and immediately made a hand seal with his hands. A flash of blood flashed across his palms.
"Demon Blood Treasure Record." Xue Kong murmured softly, "Raise the blood!"
A palm landed on the tree monster's head. The cold and dry touch conveyed Xue Kong's power. He used the method of refining the essence and blood of monsters from the Demon Blood Treasure Record on the tree monster.
The tree demon has no flesh and blood.
However, after its cultivation reached the stage of Jindan, all its cultivation turned into a demon pill. This demon pill helped it to condense flesh and blood, and also contained essence and blood, representing the essence of this tree demon.
At this moment, the blood seemed to boil, and was being pulled as if to fly out of the tree monster's body.
"You! What kind of magic are you using!" The tree demon was frightened and twisted its body wildly, trying to throw Xue Kong off, but Xue Kong's body seemed to be firmly attached to its head, not moving at all.
"Ah!!!" The tree demon knew that he could not let Xue Kong refine his own essence and blood, so he activated his cultivation and burst out with the liberated power. As his hundred-foot-tall body twitched, the entire mountain trembled violently.
Amidst the crackling sounds, cracks appeared on the mountain.
If you look at it from the outside, you will be shocked to find that this towering mountain is now covered with cracks, and fluorescent vines are breaking through the stone walls at various parts of the mountain and sticking out.
