Chapter 298 Seed? This fox ghost is so good, it seems that from the beginning...
This fox ghost seemed to be irritated by something from the very beginning.
The Black Tiger Vine suspected that they had entered an area that the fox ghost had set his eyes on for treasure, which angered the beastly creature and it began to attack.
"Look, what if there are any strange plants?" The black tiger vine paused. Its spiritual sense just looked at Yi Yan and felt that it was not very likely, so it changed the topic and said, "What if there are some strange plant remains?"
"Anyway, there must be something where the fox ghost stays all year round." Heihu Teng said with certainty.
It's not that the Black Tiger Vine doesn't believe that there are strange plants here, the main thing is... the Black Tiger Vine can't speak against its conscience. It is an old vine, and it can't be as conscienceless as the insects of all races.
The Black Tiger Vine's spiritual sense observed the grove where the fox ghost had just stayed. It was called a grove, but in fact it was just a few dead trees without leaves. There were maybe a few dead fruits on the branches, half fallen.
There is no magic at all.
So many trees, including the dead fruits on the branches, have no strange power. This is the main reason why Black Tiger Vine changed his tone just now.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lu walked forward and looked at the dead trees. He also felt that what Black Tiger Teng said made sense.
"No." Ye Lu followed Black Tiger Teng's instructions and looked at the dead trees several times. He didn't find any strange power the first time and thought he was seeing things. Then he looked at it several more times and still found nothing. He said, "There is nothing. Not a strange plant, and no strange plant remains."
"It should be an ordinary tree." Ye Lu gave the answer.
"Ah Gui, have you found anything?" After Ye Lu finished speaking, he looked at the ghost scholar who was closing his eyes to feel the wind, and asked.
"Nothing." The ghost scholar opened his eyes and honestly told what he felt. After he finished speaking, the ghost scholar frowned again.
"What's wrong??"
"I didn't sense any strange plants in the entire valley." The ghost scholar hesitated for a long time before finally expressing his feelings.
Ye Lu was very calm: "Since the Myriad Races have been able to survive for so long, they must have many tricks up their sleeves. Even if there are strange plants, they are well hidden."
No matter how confident the various races are that they can preserve the flame of their race for thousands of years, they will certainly think about what if something unexpected happens, and they will definitely have other means.
"Then there is nothing left?" said the ghost scholar, shaking his head.
"No, that's not right." Black Tiger Vine said in confusion, "No, there may be nothing here. Could this be the lair of the fox ghost?"
Ye Lu looked up at the dead tree in front of him. As he looked, he silently recalled the fox ghost's actions just now. It seemed to be bowing to a tree in front, and then turned around when it sensed them coming.
“…Is it this tree?” Ye Lu frowned and slowly walked to the place where the fox ghost was just now.
He stared at the waist of the dead tree in front of him for a while. Suddenly, he made a knife-like movement with his hand and chopped it horizontally. The dead tree in front of him was cut in half with a loud bang. The sound was very crisp. The trunk was split open, revealing the empty tree core.
Ye Lu lowered his head and saw only rotten tissue inside.
"No." Ye Lu frowned even deeper. Could it be that he was wrong?
No, that’s not right.
What Heihu Teng just said made sense. There was indeed something wrong with this fox ghost. It would actively attack people just by sensing their breath. There must be something abnormal, but he just hadn't found the key to the problem yet.
"Let me think about it..." Ye Lu raised his head to look at the sky, his eyes sweeping across the surrounding treetops, and he paused, "Wait...
"Black Tiger." Ye Lu turned his head without hesitation and looked at the half of the tree canopy he had just cut off. Sure enough, he found what he wanted to see in the canopy. He asked, "Does the Ten Thousand Races have a way to turn the strange plant back into seeds?"
Black Tiger Vine was stunned by the question and was about to say no? It's impossible. After all, which one is more favored by heaven and earth, the weird plant or the weird? It must be the weird plant. As long as the weird plant survives the fragile seedling stage, it will never die. Now? You said that you can turn a weird plant into a seed again.
This is going against the will of heaven, and destiny will never allow it.
Just as Black Tiger Vine was about to speak, the previous behavior of the Ten Thousand Races appeared in his mind. Black Tiger Vine hesitated for a moment, but if it were the Ten Thousand Races, they could really do such a thing.
"It shouldn't be possible." Black Tiger Teng thought about it and still felt it was impossible: "If there is such a method, why do they have to stay in this strange valley?"
The ghost scholar disagreed: "What if that method can only be used once?"
There are so many strange plants in the Guimen Valley that it is impossible for all the races to give up.
Black Tiger Teng said that this method is against heaven, and it is almost enough for one time.
The black tiger vine was speechless. It actually felt that what the ghost scholar said made sense.
Black Tiger Vine was not a fool. It tried very hard to follow the Ghost Scholar's thoughts and stammered, "If that's the case, then that strange plant must be the most precious strange plant in the Strange Valley. If it all turns into seeds, then the seeds may not have consciousness anymore. It would be a completely new strange plant."
The black tiger vine has more feelings as a strange plant. Once it becomes a seed again, it is a new strange plant. The previous strange plant will never come back.
"In the entire Guimen, I have thought about it and only two Gui plants are qualified." Black Tiger Vine said: "One is the Black and White Star Plum, and the other is the Guimen Oil Seed."
"The black and white star plum is unlikely. It is said to be a top-level strange plant, but in fact it is two strange plants, one male and one female. It is impossible for the Ten Thousand Races to turn two strange plants into seeds."
"As for the Guimen Youzi, it is somewhat possible."
Ye Lu listened to what Black Tiger Vine and Ghost Scholar said, and walked in two or three steps to the tree crown that had just fallen to the ground. He lowered his head to search, and when he saw the dry fruits on the branches of the tree crown, he reached out and crushed the flesh to reveal the seeds inside.
No? That’s not right.
Still no? Right.
While the Ghost Scholar and Black Tiger Vine were still discussing, a voice interrupted their conversation.
"No need to look for it." Ye Lu said lightly, holding a tiny seed in his hand. The seed was nearly half the size of an ordinary vine fruit and was dark and shiny.
"In my hands."
"Heihu, take a look. Is this the seed you mentioned?"
The Ghost Scholar and Black Tiger Vine stopped talking the moment they heard Ye Lu's words, and involuntarily looked at the seeds in Ye Lu's hand.
"Rapeseed?" The ghost scholar instantly recognized the true identity of the seeds in Ye Lu's hand. Although this seed was somewhat different from ordinary rapeseed and the color was also different, the ghost scholar had been in charge of farming in He Village for more than ten years, and he had seen countless seeds.
If you are a human, then you may not have a shortage of oil.
The people of He Village naturally also grow some rapeseed. Normally, they either eat animal oil or meat oil. There are many strange forbidden stone mountains and most of them cannot be used to refine oil. Generally speaking, the former is more common.
The ghost scholar had naturally seen rapeseed many times, and he was very sure that what Lu Ge was holding in his hand was rapeseed.
The Black Tiger Vine's consciousness looked at Ye Lu's hand for a long time, then remained silent for a long time. Then, it said in a very complicated tone: "Yes, this is it."
"I didn't expect it to actually be turned into seeds."
"Originally, it was the smartest plant in that valley. It was also the one that reminded me to be careful of these myriad races. I never expected that it would not escape the disaster."
"The extinction of all races is truly determined by fate."
After listening to Black Tiger Teng's words, the ghost scholar also heard the complex emotions in Black Tiger Teng's words. He looked at the seeds in Ye Lu's hand and asked doubtfully: "But it's rapeseed? Is it a strange herb?"
According to the Black Tiger Vine, the Ghost Gate's Oiler, the Ghost Plant's spiritual consciousness is actually stronger than the Black Tiger Vine, which is a top-level vine. This goes against the ghost scholar's common sense.
Generally speaking, the spiritual consciousness of tall trees and plants must be much smarter than that of grass and plants. Tall trees are the largest and absorb the most strange power, and their spiritual consciousness is probably the smartest.
The strange plants on the mountains are also large? Most of them follow this characteristic.
For example, as companion plants, the spiritual consciousness of the tall pine tree is much smarter than that of the medium-sized laurel tree. The pine tree even shows intelligence that is no less than that of a human when it is a seedling.
"No! That's not right!" Black Tiger Vine interrupted the Ghost Scholar's speculation. After he finished speaking, he realized that his tone was a bit harsh. After a moment of calming down, he continued: "The Ghost Sect's oilmen are different."
"Its rank is different from ours."
"Ghost Gate Oil Seed, to be more precise, you call it Ghost Oil Rapeseed or Ghost Oil Seed. It is originally a top-level Ghost Plant of Blood Grudge Grade. It mutated once more during its seedling stage. Do you know what happened?"
When Heihu Teng said this, he looked at Ye Lu.
Ye Lu only felt his throat a little dry, and the hand holding the seeds seemed to weigh a thousand pounds for an instant. He nodded.
He still knew this common sense. Generally speaking, the so-called strange plant mutation is similar to the change of ordinary plants into strange plants. This is a qualitative change. Zhu Hui once emphasized that as long as a strange plant has undergone a mutation, no matter what its current rank is, as long as it mutates, it will at least start from a major stage.
That is to say.
"...Dark and weird level." Ye Lu uttered these words with difficulty.
"That's right." Black Tiger Vine heard the answer he wanted and continued, "I have also seen the rank of Boss Qingsong. It cannot be denied that he is very strong, much stronger than me. This is why I recognize him as the boss. You two-legged beasts may not feel it clearly, but as the same kind of weird plants, we can feel it most clearly."
"But at least Boss Qingsong is not as high-ranking as Guimen Youzi was back then."
"Even if Boss Qingsong recovers to his heyday in the future, he can be on par with Guimen Youzi at best. He will definitely not be able to defeat him." Heihu Teng said with certainty.
It had witnessed with its own eyes how blessed the Guimen Oil was. Not everyone could become a divine object, and not just any Guimen plant could make the top-level vine, the Black Tiger Vine, bow down to it.
So when he saw that the Guimen oil seeds were really turned into seeds, Heihu Teng felt only pure anger in his heart.
How dare these bugs?? ! !
How dare they treat Him like this!!!
Heihu Teng therefore said that the extermination of all races was determined by destiny.
The ghost scholar was silent for a moment. He could hear the resentment in Heihu Teng's words.
Ye Lu waited until the Black Tiger Vine had finished venting its anger before continuing, "The fruit that encloses this seed must have been added later. As soon as I picked the fruit, the strange power of the tree began to spread. It must be a strange plant."
"Of course, as a black-level strange plant, the Guimen Youzi must have top-level strange materials to prevent the penetration of its strange power even in the seed stage. It should be some kind of inedible strange plant." Black Tiger Vine said sarcastically.
"These bugs are really trying hard to survive."
