In addition to the roots, Ji Yang's trunk also grew during this upgrade.
The trunk, which was originally only a dozen feet high, quickly grew several feet higher, reaching a height of about twenty feet. Even in the mass grave mountain full of trees, it was particularly conspicuous. What's more, on this huge locust tree, there were locust leaves as dense as stars.
Even if one only watched from a distance, one could tell that the tree was extraordinary. Even the villagers at the foot of the mass grave mountain began to kowtow sincerely upon seeing this, and wisps of incense soon wafted out from above their heads.
Ji Yang also accepted the aroma of incense produced by the villagers when they worshipped. It was all gathered in the locust leaves anyway, so there was no need to distinguish them so clearly.
As I continue to grow in the future, perhaps I will be able to attract more people to worship me. Even if I don't cast a golden body at that time, it will still be able to have many wonderful uses.
As the changes stopped, Ji Yang began a new journey of deduction without hesitation.
[You were born in a rock prison. In order to quickly become a towering tree, you began to grow hard! ]
[You have successfully deduced twice, and you can randomly carry two of your own magical powers in the deduction world. ]
[Magic power is randomly selected...]
[The magical powers obtained in this deduction of the world: Like a seal, like a siege, scattered leaves become soldiers]
Before Ji Yang could understand what the Rock Prison was, he saw a stream of high-temperature fiery red liquid bursting out in front of him.
Although they just passed each other, Ji Yang's heart tightened instantly.
When Ji Yang saw the surrounding situation clearly, the heavy stone in his heart sank to the bottom instantly.
I saw magma flowing in all directions like a river, waves of heat rising up, and the extreme high temperature distorted Ji Yang's vision.
Even when looking into the distance, Ji Yang still could not see a hint of green, as if there was only magma here.
And when Ji Yang looked up, there was a hint of confusion and dullness in his eyes.
Ji Yang, who was unwilling to give up, couldn't help but start counting silently in his heart.
"One, two, three, four... nine!"
Nine, a full nine suns were hanging overhead, scorching everything.
What about Hou Yi? No one cares?
Such a harsh environment finally made Ji Yang understand the meaning of Rock Prison, the magma hell.
Ji Yang looked at his roots. Now he was growing on a piece of land less than one meter long and wide, floating above the magma. It seemed that the thin piece of land under his feet was the last relatively safe piece of soil here.
But above this soil, there is nothing else except itself, and as the magma flows, the land below is constantly being impacted. From time to time, a few pieces of soil will fall and sink completely into the magma.
The magma that burst out just now and almost hit him came from here.
As Ji Yang observed, he quickly discovered something was wrong.
The temperature of the underground magma here is higher than the previous one. How is he still alive?
When Ji Yang checked his own abilities, he quickly had the answer in his mind.
It turns out that the abilities he possesses this time include not only resistance to high temperatures, but also even greater resistance to fire.
It is precisely because of the existence of these two abilities that he was able to avoid being turned into ashes on the spot in such a harsh environment.
In addition to these two key abilities, there are several other abilities that are particularly useful for this simulated world.
Poison Resistance: You are more resistant to poison.
Rootless Tree: Even without roots, you can still survive for a long time, and your branches become more vibrant.
Hardworking and able to endure hardships: Even in the harshest environment, you can still squeeze out some moisture from it.
Resilience: Your skin is thicker and you are better able to thrive in adversity.
These abilities can increase the chances of survival here.
His resistance to poison gas allows him to avoid the poisonous gas brought by the flow of magma. His rootless tree means he does not need the help of soil. After all, beneath the soil is the flowing magma. His hard work allows him to obtain water. His perseverance allows him to avoid being scorched and receive sufficient sunlight.
That way, there was no reason why he couldn't survive.
As time passed, Ji Yang's originally vibrant leaves gradually began to wither, and even the thick bark was stained with a layer of gray and yellow.
But even so, Ji Yang's life remained tenacious and did not die.
But as Ji Yang observed, the situation became increasingly worse. For example, the nine suns above his head had never set, which also meant that he had never seen the night.
The little bit of soil on which he lived was also being eroded by the flow of magma. It was originally about one meter wide, but soon it was only half a meter. Ji Yang's roots were even about to touch the flowing magma below.
Even if he could barely absorb some water with his own ability, he would still sink into the magma before long.
As Ji Yang persisted, a prompt soon came to his eyes:
[You gradually adapt to the life in the Rock Prison. In order to grow faster, what do you decide? ]
[Absorb the power of magma][Absorb the essence of the sun][Absorb the water of heaven and earth]
Looking at the three choices in front of him, Ji Yang hesitated slightly.
Since this place is a rock prison, the first choice is naturally the best, but he is worried that his roots cannot withstand the heat of the magma here.
As for the second option, Ji Yang was powerless. In this world, he had not yet opened his spiritual intelligence, so it was difficult for him to absorb the essence of the sun in this way.
However, with Nine Suns in the sky here, it should be easier than other places.
As for the third one, Ji Yang fell into deep thought.
Although the temperature here is extremely high and normal water cannot be preserved, there is water in the slowly flowing magma below.
If he remembered correctly, the water in the magma existed mainly in the form of volatiles, which included water (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
So theoretically speaking, there is water in the flowing magma, and the hard work of the magma itself is probably also the water absorbed from it.
However, considering that it was difficult to absorb the extremely small amount of external water, the third option was quickly ruled out by Ji Yang.
In this case, you can only make a choice between the first two.
After thinking for a while, Ji Yang decided to absorb the power of magma. After all, the soil below could not last too long and he would sink into it sooner or later.
But before that, he needs to use the magical powers he brought with him on this trip, such as sealing and closing, and use his last bit of vitality to strengthen the roots, so that he can be absolutely safe.
While thinking, Ji Yang had already made his choice.
“Sizzle…”
The roots touched the magma, making a harsh sound.
Even with its resistance to high temperatures and flames, it still couldn't completely isolate the high temperature in the magma.
However, with the implementation of the Fengsibi technique, the situation quickly improved.
