"What's wrong?" Zuan asked, puzzled.
Yu Yanluo explained, "Fire Tree Silver Flower usually grows in places with abundant vital energy, which can be said to be the essence of heaven and earth. Although it is not a ferocious beast, it is still somewhat aggressive and has a strong sense of territory. Once you get close to it, it will start to attack. Some of our miners were injured by this kind of tree back then."
"Is it strong?" Zuan looked at the red tree in the distance and felt the heat coming towards him. He thought to himself, "This guy must be a fire elemental, right?"
“That’s unclear. Each tree’s strength varies greatly depending on its age and size,” Yu Yanluo said. “This tree is so thick and strong, it must be quite powerful.”
"But it's still not as good as that scaled death worm." Zu An smiled. Anyway, he was determined to get Wu Yangyu, so he naturally wouldn't back down at this time.
"The Scale-like Death Worm?" Yu Yanluo asked in surprise. "How do you know the name of that strange worm?"
"It was chosen randomly based on its appearance." This was hard to explain, so Zu'an just made up a reason.
Yu Yanluo recalled the characteristics of the strange insect she had just encountered: "That does seem somewhat fitting."
Zuan released her hand and slowly walked towards the tree.
It's called a tree, but it feels more like a large flowerbed. The patterns on its body are like rubies, and the surface is crystal clear and flowing, as if flames are flowing inside its body.
The branches are adorned with many tiny silvery-white flowers, but upon closer inspection, they are not white flowers at all, but rather burning flames!
How high does the temperature have to be to achieve this pure white color?!
Zu An thought to himself, "No wonder I've been feeling dizzy since the beginning. It turns out the oxygen in this place has been almost completely burned away."
He finally understood why Wuyang Jade was so rare. First, the "fire tree and silver flower" pattern was hard to find. Second, even if it was found, ordinary people would probably suffocate just getting close to it, let alone mining it.
The space here isn't very big, and there's no ventilation to the outside, so how come the fire keeps burning?
And what about the rule that open flames are prohibited in mining areas? Aren't you afraid this thing will blow up the whole mining area?
As if sensing his approach, the dazzling display of lights reacted, with all the branches rustling and then moving.
The large patch of flowers on the ground stood up, its base area eventually shrinking, and its entire body became a tree several meters tall and as thick as three people could hug!
No wonder this thing is called both a tree and a flower.
Suddenly, a huge red flower appeared on the tree canopy, shaped somewhat like a sunflower.
For some reason, Zuan always felt that it was the tree's head.
It's practically a spirit!
However, this was, after all, a world of cultivation, and he was already used to it.
Seeing that the other person's large face seemed to be glaring at him, Zu An tiptoed and felt a little embarrassed. He cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Brother Shu, I would like to borrow those Wu Yang Jade pieces next to you. They won't hurt you. I hope you can do me a favor."
Yu Yanluo chuckled, thinking to herself that this guy was quite amusing, actually talking to a tree.
But her eyes widened immediately, because the tree spoke, though its voice was quite indistinct, it was still vaguely understandable: "No!"
Yu Yanluo: "???"
Can trees talk?
Although I've heard some legends about tree people, they're just legends; no one has seen one in years.
Zuan was also startled. Before he could say anything, the fiery tree grew impatient and lashed out at him with its slender branches.
There are tiny silvery-white flames on it, just like a flaming whip. If you were to be whipped by it, it would definitely feel terrible.
He dodged away in a flash, and the fiery trees and silver flowers, seeing this, waved all their branches, truly weaving a dense net of fire.
Zuan drew his Tai'a sword and parried left and right, quickly cutting off sections of the branches.
The fiery tree, in pain, hurriedly retracted its branches, wary of the divine weapon in his hand, and dared not directly confront him with its branches.
It suddenly trembled violently, and the silvery-white flowers on its body fell off one by one, before flying towards Zu'an.
At first, they seemed to be just tiny sparks, but they quickly grew larger in the wind and became blazing fireballs.
The raging flames and extreme heat were so intense that even high-level cultivators had to avoid its power.
Even Yu Yanluo, who was some distance away, couldn't help but take several steps back. She hurriedly reminded her, "Auntie, be careful!"
Zuan found it strange, because he only felt a slight burning sensation, far from the power displayed by these fireballs.
At this moment, he felt a faint warmth from the pendant around his neck. A thought struck him: this was the flame-shaped pendant that Da Manman had given him, because she was worried that its strange black flames might hurt him.
It seems that this pendant is not only immune to the black flames of the Great Manman, but also has extremely strong resistance to other flames?
Sigh, I left in such a hurry this time that I didn't even have time to say goodbye to her. I wonder if she's worried about me.
Amidst a multitude of thoughts, he acted without hesitation, wielding the Snowflake Divine Sword, causing the surrounding temperature to drop abruptly.
Snowflakes danced in the air, enveloping the fireballs and extinguishing their once menacing presence.
Originally, using snow to fight fire was at a disadvantage, but ultimately it depends on the skill level. In addition, the power of the Snow Phoenix is different from ordinary ice and snow, which is why it has such a good effect.
Yu Yanluo watched from the sidelines with admiring eyes, gazing at the dashing figure in the arena, thinking to herself, "Azu is so handsome."
At this moment, Zaun had found an opening, broke through the opponent's fireball formation, and thrust his sword directly into the opponent's tree canopy.
