God's Gift

With every step closer, his mental strength was sucked away more severely.

But Lu Keming just frowned slightly and walked under the blood tree.

Blood-red petals fell from the tree and sprinkled on his shoulders.

Lu Keming turned his head and brushed the petals off.

His mental strength was still draining away quickly. Gradually, a few drops of sweat appeared on Lu Keming's forehead.

There are red lines on the trunk of the blood tree spreading upwards, as if it is absorbing blood.

His mental power could not be used here. Lu Keming stroked the dragon ring and raised his eyes to glance around the blood tree.

He raised his hand and waved towards the blood tree.

In an instant, the blood tree was surrounded by a ball of blazing red flames, and the green hellfire burning on the ground became smaller.

Lu Keming looked around and knew that this method was effective, so he continued to increase the flame, but the blood tree stretched out more branches to block his flame.

Lu Keming frowned and wanted to increase the flame further, but suddenly he saw a human figure appear inside the tree trunk.

Like a little girl.

The red lines of the blood tree trunk spread out from her body.

Lu Keming withdrew his hand, a look of confusion appearing on his face.

Who is that?

They didn't see the little girl when they first came, and they didn't see her when they sent Blue Dragon members to investigate later.

It appears only after the blessing is extinguished.

He walked closer, and the little girl's appearance became clearer.

The little girl looked no more than five years old, with a Caucasian face, loose red hair, and eyes tightly closed, as if she was sleeping.

Why does a little girl appear in the blood tree, and she seems to be at the core of the blood tree.

Yu Youyou’s words flashed through Lu Keming’s mind.

The village chief threw his daughter off a cliff.

She didn't turn into those monsters.

Lu Keming took a few steps closer and saw a leaping green flame on the little girl's chest.

Lu Keming paused for a moment.

Tinder.

It parasitizes on this girl.

Lu Keming stretched out his hand, wanting to take the fire.

But the moment he touched the tree trunk, the fire began to jump wildly.

The mental energy that was already draining away began to drain away at an accelerated rate.

In just a few minutes, the vast spiritual power in his body was completely sucked away.

An expression similar to pain finally appeared on Lu Keming's face, but he was unwilling to let go and was still trying to grab the fire.

After his mental energy was drained away, Lu Keming's body began to undergo tremendous changes.

Dark brown scales covered the skin layer by layer, and the dark pupils turned into golden vertical pupils.

A pair of sharp horns grew on his head, and the clothes on his back were torn by a pair of huge wings.

That is--

dragon.

The degree of dragonization became more and more serious. Lu Keming looked at the scales on his body, and a hint of disgust flashed in his golden pupils. Finally, he withdrew his hand.

The young man with huge dragon wings took a few steps back, gasped a few times, the scales on his body gradually faded away, the dragon wings folded back, and his pupils returned to normal.

Lu Keming looked at the girl in the blood tree and gradually clenched his fingers.

I didn't expect the power of fire to be so strong.

The mental strength in his body was unable to compete with the dragon blood, causing him to reveal this ugly appearance uncontrollably.

Lu Keming exhaled, stroked the dragon ring, and thought about other countermeasures.

"Master." Anthony's voice came from the intelligent brain. Lu Keming looked at the intelligent brain and responded, "What's wrong?"

"Yu Youyou has entered the forest." Anthony looked at Yu Youyou, who was carrying a huge backpack and flipping through snacks while walking in the distance.

Lu Keming twisted the remaining sawdust on his hands and replied casually, "Kill him."

There was no emotion in his voice, as if he was not facing a living person, but a grass or an ant.

Anthony was stunned for a few seconds. He didn't expect that after the young master used Ye Li and the others, he would directly ask for Yu Youyou to be killed.

“Master…” Anthony hesitated and said tentatively, “Yu Youyou doesn’t even have mental strength. She probably won’t survive if she enters the forest alone. She may be eliminated from the trial soon. Maybe we don’t need to kill her specifically.”

Lu Keming paused, raised his eyes, and said nothing.

Seeing no response from the other side, Anthony broke out in a cold sweat and decisively changed his words: "Master, I will go kill Yu Youyou right now."

Lu Keming laughed coldly at Anthony's flexible attitude.

A blood-red petal fell before his eyes.

There was a flash of light in Lu Keming's eyes.

"Wait." Lu Keming was not as angry as Anthony imagined. Instead, he stopped him and said, "She is still useful."

People with psychic powers cannot touch the blood tree, but people without psychic powers should be able to do so.

Anthony looked at Yu Youyou who knew nothing not far away, and felt relieved that she was alive.

-

When Lu Keming found Yu Youyou, Yu Youyou was squatting on the ground with her back to him, curled up into a small ball.

Lu Keming frowned. Was he scared?

He took a few steps forward and wanted to check on Yu Youyou's condition.

When he got closer, Lu Keming discovered that there was a gray mole digging a hole in front of Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou, who was mistakenly thought to be frightened by Lu Keming, was squatting on the ground, watching the mole digging a hole intently.

The little mole diligently pushed the soil out of the hole, then turned back into the hole and continued digging.

After it turned around, Yu Youyou quickly pushed the soil in.

After repeating this several times, the little mole looked at the pile of soil that he would never finish digging, and some confusion appeared in his bright black eyes.

It turned and went back into the hole. Yu Youyou stretched out her hand again and just happened to bump into the mole that came out.

The Mole was so angry that he felt dizzy and grabbed Yu Youyou's hand and pushed her out.

"Hehe." Yu Youyou laughed slyly.

Lu Keming, who was standing behind her and witnessed everything, said: …

After a few seconds, he closed his eyes and said, "Yu Youyou."

When Yu Youyou heard the voice, she turned around and saw Lu Keming standing behind her. Her eyes lit up and she stood up from the ground.

"Lu Keming, you're here too!"

Yu Youyou walked towards Lu Keming with a smile.

"Yeah." Lu Keming took a step back calmly, avoiding Yu Youyou's hand, "What are you doing here?"

Yu Youyou clapped her hands and shook off the dirt. "I'll go take a look at the blood tree and see if there's any way to extinguish the hellfire."

Although he had already guessed the purpose of Yu Youyou's coming here, Yu Youyou's unguarded look still made Lu Keming look a little hesitant.

"You're telling me your purpose just like that?"

"You know it all anyway." Yu Youyou waved her hand and responded nonchalantly.

Lu Keming looked at Yu Youyou's sincere attitude and frowned for a long time.

She knows everything.

After a long time, Lu Keming thought about the blood tree, looked at Yu Youyou thoughtfully, and said, "You want to extinguish the fire of hell."

Yu Youyou nodded, "Yeah."

"I know how to extinguish the fire of hell." There was a hint of suggestion in Lu Keming's voice.

Yu Youyou followed up on his question and asked, "How do I put it out?"

"You said last time that the village chief sacrificed his daughter to the fires of hell."

Yu Youyou nodded, "Remember."

"His daughter did not turn into a monster. Instead, she became one with the hellfire. The spark of hellfire is in her chest." Lu Keming's eyes darkened when he thought of the little girl in the trunk of the blood tree.

“As long as you take her out and take the spark of hellfire out of her body, the hellfire will be extinguished.” Lu Keming lowered his voice and coaxed Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou understood, and not only understood, but also applied it to other situations: "So you want the fire of hell."
