After returning to the ancestral hall, Ji Yang did not rush to start the next deduction, but looked quietly ahead, as if waiting for something.
But after waiting for a long time, Ji Yang still didn't see any new prompts.
This made Ji Yang's tree trunks a little darker.
I gained nothing from love this time!
Seeing that there was only one deduction left, Ji Yang did not hesitate and continued to choose deduction.
…
[You were born in a dense forest! In order to grow into a towering tree as soon as possible, you began to grow hard! ]
Looking at the prompt in front of him, Ji Yang remained indifferent.
The dense forest looked like an ordinary map at first glance, which did not arouse any interest in him.
But when Ji Yang was about to give up, he caught a glimpse of a familiar flying cicada out of the corner of his eye.
This cicada is not big in size, but its head and abdomen are brown, and its surface has texture like tree rings. Its wings are broad and transparent, as if they have witnessed endless years.
The moment he saw the cicada, Ji Yang felt a little excited.
Isn’t this the spring and autumn cicada that I saw when I first deduced it?
At this moment, the Spring and Autumn Cicada was dormant on a tree not far away, some distance away from Ji Yang.
But there were many complex colors in Ji Yang's eyes when he looked at Chunqiu Chan.
At this moment, he was not looking at the cicada, but another kind of martial arts that he had not chosen before.
However, Ji Yang quickly regained his composure.
Now he entered this place with single deduction and did not bring any abilities of his own. In other words, he is now just an ordinary tree.
No, it's a young sapling that is still growing.
In order to attract the spring and autumn cicadas, he must at least grow into a big tree.
The most important thing is that Ji Yang cannot be sure that this cicada will choose to roost on his tree trunk again, but no matter what the result is, he still needs to try.
As for how to work hard, that is to wait!
While waiting, Ji Yang did not forget to check around the environment he was in. He did not want to die prematurely before he grew up.
Fortunately, the dense forest was extremely quiet, with occasional sunlight, making it warm and peaceful.
Most importantly, Ji Yang did not see a hateful black gold beast!
Years pass and time flies.
After witnessing countless cycles of the four seasons, Ji Yang gradually grew from a small sapling into a sturdy tree.
The process was extremely safe and Ji Yang did not encounter any new plot.
The spring and autumn cicada in the distance still stayed where it was and did not fly away.
This gave Ji Yang some more comfort and hope.
Now he is a mature tree, please come and destroy him quickly!
Unfortunately, Ji Yang’s wish did not come true, and the cicada had no intention of changing the tree to roost on.
What puzzled Ji Yang was that after so much time had passed, the cicada did not seem to have any intention of absorbing the sap of the tree. Instead, it remained silent on the tree and did not move.
This made Ji Yang feel a little anxious.
Although it has now grown into a big tree, its lifespan is limited. If the Spring and Autumn Cicada does not move for a long time, I am afraid that it will slowly die of old age just like the previous deduction.
If only he had used multiple deductions this time, with the ability to strengthen roots or grow freely, he could then absorb all the nutrients from other large trees around him like before, leaving himself alone within a few miles, or make himself grow uniquely and attract the attention of this spring and autumn cicada.
But now Ji Yang has no choice but to wait.
As time went by, Ji Yang's trunk became thicker and thicker, and it became the most eye-catching tree in this dense forest, but the cicada remained unmoved.
This made Ji Yang wonder if the cicada was dead, otherwise why wouldn't he be tempted by its thick trunk?
Gradually, Ji Yang's trunk stopped growing upwards, and the number of green leaves it produced each year became fewer and fewer. Even the roots buried deep underground became much looser.
He doesn't have much time left and he is going to die of old age.
Ji Yang sensed all of this clearly, but was powerless to do anything.
Seeing the opportunity right in front of him, but unable to reach out and touch it, Ji Yang felt mixed emotions.
Just when Ji Yang thought that he was about to end this miserable life as a tree, there was a commotion in the distance, and new subtitles soon appeared before his eyes.
[The beasts in the forest are moving strangely. In order to resist the beast tide, what will you choose? ]
[Active Defense] [Death on the Spot]
???
Looking at the second option, Ji Yang had countless question marks in his mind, and then he decisively chose to take the initiative to defend.
After the selection was made, the loose roots under Ji Yang's ground changed. They no longer grew downwards, but slowly extended toward the ground, and finally formed a solid root wall around Ji Yang.
Looking at this scene, Ji Yang fell into silence.
Without roots to absorb nutrients, what's the difference between him and dying of old age on the spot?
Maybe I can survive a little longer?
Ji Yang turned his gaze to the front. The beast tide had already arrived. Countless trees fell down in his sight, and the sound of trampling could be heard all around.
The vibrations of the ground were quickly transmitted to Ji Yang's tree trunks and treetops.
Feeling the vibration of the tree trunk, Ji Yang quickly turned his gaze towards the Spring and Autumn Cicada not far away.
Under the vibration, the spring and autumn cicada that Ji Yang thought was dead actually began to move slowly.
This caused Ji Yang's mood to change slightly, and he felt a little more excited.
But this excitement only lasted for less than a breath, and Ji Yang watched the spring and autumn cicada fly away from the tree it was originally on, flying farther and farther until it completely disappeared.
Ji Yang felt depressed, there was no hope at all!
Under the tree trunks, the beast tide has arrived.
Although it cannot compare with the might of heaven and earth, the agitation of living beings still makes a huge noise.
At this moment, Ji Yang also saw the main force of the beast tide. They were black gold beasts with thick skin and sharp fangs!
Damn black gold beast!
Ji Yang complained in his heart, but the root wall under the tree trunk remained strong.
Some of the roots extended outward, and the roots that were gradually aging due to loss of vitality also became extremely strong. Many black gold beasts were pierced by the roots before they hit Ji Yang's trunk, and became corpses under the trunk.
I don’t know how long it took, the vibration sounds around me became smaller and smaller, and slowly, the few black gold beasts in sight disappeared.
Under Ji Yang's tree trunk, there were countless animal corpses piled up. These animal corpses arched Ji Yang in the middle, like an altar for worship, and also allowed Ji Yang to avoid this beast tide.
The surroundings were devastated, with only a few sturdy trees standing intact.
Although he successfully survived the beast tide, Ji Yang was not happy at all, because the shock caused by the beast tide also caused the Spring and Autumn Cicada to disappear.
It was not easy to meet this cicada for the second time, but unfortunately luck did not seem to be on his side.
