wave!

In the depths of "Wanghai", there used to be such a race that lived without roots. Although they were plants, they had to rely on, parasitize, or even steal other people's roots to absorb nutrients and survive.This is the 'twisted family'.Their blood is born with an irresistible and irresistible obsession, that is, no matter what, they must successfully 'strangle' their hosts and occupy everything the hosts have, even if... the hosts are so kind to them, Even if they are reinvented, they cannot let them abandon this ancient custom.

Amu drifted around "Wanghai" alone since he was conscious. He didn't know where he came from, and he didn't know what race he was. vitality and nourishment to his master.

There are too few such people. He wandered for a long time before finally meeting a young man who looked a bit weak.The young man took root by the sea, and every branch and leaf was lush and full of vitality. Such exuberant vitality caused Amu to involuntarily transform into his original form, wrapping his body around the young man's torso, in order to absorb his vitality .

In this way, he became Wei Ding's 'parasitic wood', and without too much hard work and effort, he could obtain enough spiritual power from Wei Ding for his growth, evolution, and transformation, and he got a man named 'Amu' name.

Amu is very grateful to Wei Ding for giving him life and a family. He regards Wei Ding as his master and relative, and is even willing to sacrifice his life for him.In such contented days, he seems to have forgotten the deepest nature hidden in his bones...until he really decided his life for Wei.At the moment when the fire of life was about to burn out, the instinct passed down from generation to generation deep in the blood was magnified overnight, and the belief in wanting to live overcame all emotions. Wanting to find a way out for himself, he was accidentally rescued by a thousand-year-old ginseng.

From that time on, Amu was no longer the former Amu.In his own words, the former Amu had already returned his life to Wei Ding.Amu, who came back to life, only lived for himself, only for instinct.After he came back to life, he discovered that after the original main branch had dried up, there was a secret treasure of the "Kink Clan" hidden under the peeled bark. With the help of that dark green ancient branch, he gradually understood who he was. , why survive.

A long, long time ago, I don’t know if it was the reason of natural evolution. A rootless ancestor appeared in this world. In order to survive, this ancestor began to look for a host that could "support" itself like some "parasitic and companion" plants... Find Afterwards, he wrapped himself around the other party's root system, so that after a long time, he actually grew together with the host's root system.He was grateful to the host at the beginning, until the days got longer and longer, his rapid growth left the host with no room to survive, he absorbed all the nutrients, and the host was successfully 'strangled' by him... He took possession of the host's body Roots, the host's homeland, and all.The gratitude of the past has become insignificant in the face of this great joy... So, he began to look for other rootless plants in the world, and classified them into the same race as himself.

In the later days, the "Strangling Clan" developed rapidly and absorbed many rooted species. They also had their own set of so-called "practice rules", which was the "Strangling Technique" that the first ancestor self-understood. For a while, such a greedy and shameless race spread all over the continent. Relying on the nature of not thinking about making progress and only wanting to plunder, they have survived in a low-key manner from generation to generation.It was not until it was revealed that the 'Hang family' was known to the world.

So in a certain period of time, a "strangle-killing operation" was vigorously launched in the world of comprehension.Especially the races whose origin is plants, treat all the "parasitic, companion and even symbiotic" plant species without distinction. While killing the real "Gang Clan", they also wiped out a lot of people who do not belong to the "Grinch Clan" This kind of planting, which has brought a whole new confusion.

"Strangling" killed too many innocent people, and later this big action that damaged reputation and career was banned from being recorded and handed down.

According to rumors, the 'Gang Clan' that has been passed on has been extinct. In fact, these descendants of the 'Gang Clan' are just hidden, and some are even assimilated into other ethnic groups. The blood line has been diluted from generation to generation. His instincts and obsessions were too weak to awaken himself.Of course, there are also guys who awakened again later, but after all, such people are a very small number, and they can't cause a catastrophe, so they don't attract any attention.

Amu is such a descendant of the "Gang Clan" who awakened the instinct of his ancestors the day after tomorrow.No one would have thought that the honest, loyal, a little silly and a little bit "Parasite Wood" would suddenly have a wild ambition. He wanted to rely on the secret treasure of the clan to snatch Wei Ding away while he was going through the catastrophe. All the cultivation bases, and by the way, everything he owned was also taken away.

For this "Awakened Amu", the cultivation in the "Hunyuan Period" is already an unattainable high-level cultivation. In most cultivation worlds, this kind of cultivation is enough to become the leader of a faction and look down on a fertile land .

He originally planned to return to Amu again, return to Wei Ding's side and hide for a while, waiting for a more suitable time.Unexpectedly, this opportunity came so quickly, he waited until Wei Ding's catastrophe.

He planned very well, if Wei Ding failed to cross the catastrophe and was in danger, he would take advantage of Wei Ding's fall and take away all his treasures.If Wei Ding succeeds in crossing the catastrophe, it will be his great fortune. If he succeeds in launching the 'Strangling Technique' at this time, he will become a 'Hunyuan Stage' cultivator, and the last 'Yuxian' in the world.

After Amu crushed the family's secret treasure needed to perform the 'Strangling Technique', he patiently waited.Everything he does now is prepared step by step according to the experience left by his predecessors. He has spent more than 300 years mixing with Wei Ding, often absorbing spiritual power directly from the other party, and he has become accustomed to it. Wei Ding Never guarded against him, and didn't even notice when he absorbed spiritual power.He is confident that once the 'strangle' starts, Wei Ding will not be aware of it for a short time, and he can hide himself for a while.

Of course, in the end Wei Ding will definitely feel that something is wrong, but by then it will be too late.

Although Amu has come back to life now, he still doesn't have the guts to face his former host, and just wants to delay it for a while.

The time passed minute by minute while Amu was counting on his fingers.In the area covered by Weiding's branches and leaves, after the vegetation absorbed the energy released by the catastrophe, they grew up like a monster. Even a grass sprout on the ground was twice as tall as before. The old tree that has survived for many years blooms flowers that do not belong to this season on the top of the crown for no reason, and in an instant, a delicate fragrance floats for hundreds of miles.

Amu became a little nervous.It took three incense sticks of effort, did the 'strangulation technique' succeed?If it is not successful, it stands to reason that there will be a reminder long ago!

Amu's body suddenly trembled, and he felt a burst of mellow and rich spiritual power pouring directly into his body from behind. While he was excited, he mobilized his whole body to prepare for the surprise of the "Hunyuan Period" cultivation base.

From time to time, there was a small wind rushing through the forest... Amu, who closed his eyes and took a deep breath, only felt these chilly winds for the next time.

He opened his eyes and turned around twice in disbelief.What about spiritual power?What about cultivation?Just now he clearly felt the power of a strong man!Why is it gone again?

Amu approached for a certain distance without giving up, could it be that he was too far away?Seeing that he has almost reached the distance where Wei Ding may find him at any time, the scene that should appear as expected still did not happen.

What about 'Strangle'?Hasn't the 'strangling technique' passed down by his ancestors who finally awakened yet?Up to this time, Amu still believed that he had successfully performed the 'Strangle' just now. 'It must be that I am not proficient in mastering it, so the time for this spell to take effect is delayed for so long. ' he thought in his heart.

At this time, Wei Ding's real body slowly faded away, and the human form gradually reappeared.He stepped on the wet and heavy fallen leaves with bare feet, lowered his eyes distressedly to look at the fine branches and leaves that came from him on the ground, then raised his hand and touched his bald skin that looked like it had been bitten by a dog. into pieces of hair.

It is the greatest luck to be alive.As for the hair...it's bald if it's bald.Wei Ding comforted himself.

He then glanced at his right wrist, where a new mark was added on the basis of the original Thunder Seal of the Four Dao Gods, and this was a symbol of his new cultivation stage.

He just survived the catastrophe, although his body and spirit are exhausted, but the power contained in his 'Yuan Shen Pill' feels different from before.If in the past he felt that one foot was suspended in mid-air, he might fall down at any time and fall to pieces, but now, besides being stable, he can feel at ease.

Maybe it's because the strength has become stronger, and the senses have also become sharper.Whether it is the power of eyesight, ear or mind, the distance that can be reached is wider and wider than before.Some things that used to be like a fog in his mind are now just things that make him say 'oh'.

The realm is suddenly very different from before.

"Who's there?" He looked sideways slightly, and questioned in a majestic and drawn out voice in a certain direction behind him.

Not far away, Amu, who was still waiting for the effect of the 'strangling technique' to take effect, shrank his heart, subconsciously changed his appearance, and took several steps back.

was found!No, he can't face each other like this.

When Amu half-turned his body and was about to run away, a cold branch suddenly drilled out of the ground, wrapped around his ankles, hung him upside down, and dragged him backward like a wind and lightning.

When Amu's body fell heavily in front of Wei Ding, the former host let out a surprised voice, "Huh? Amu!!"
