Underworld Retrograde

Chapter 217 Ancient Tree

Tao Yuanming's "The Peach Blossom Spring" records a wonderful environment that exists in the deep mountains and old forests, where people are isolated from the world, self-sufficient, and everyone enjoys themselves.

Now, Li Yelai also saw a peaceful and harmonious human village in the dangerous extreme cold mountains.

This made him unable to understand why there were living beings surviving in such a deadly environment as the Snowy Mountains?

Li Yelai did not approach rashly, but carefully observed the villagers in the fields in the jungle.

Obviously, they are all pure human beings, without any physical deformation, and they are not forbidden humans who have been corrupted by the order of the forbidden area.

As for the clothes on their bodies, some wore linen clothes, and occasionally some clothes with obvious industrial traces were seen. But those clothes seemed to have been worn for a long time and were quite worn.

This shocked Li Yelai even more. The pure human village in the Snowy Mountains once had an industrial level.

"Could these people be the descendants of the strongest humans in the past?" Li Yelai was shocked, but he thought of this possibility.

The Snowy Mountains are the last battlefield for the strongest human beings.

They were swallowed by the disaster fog, and in the disaster fog, they awakened their spiritual energy. And grew up in the long fighting, giving birth to extremely powerful humans, who powerfully besieged the mist master.

If you win, you can conquer the mist and return to the physical world with your compatriots.

But in the end, they lost and the Forbidden Zone was formed. All surviving humans were corrupted by the Forbidden Zone order and became Forbidden Humans.

Perhaps, during the war that year, some humans survived and survived in this special valley. At present, it seems that this is the only possibility.

If this is really the case, Jucheng may have to find a way to get them out of here.

O remnants of the sages. Even if their ancestors were defeated, their bravery could not be concealed.

However, what Li Yelai cared about was always the dead pregnant woman.

Is she also from this village?

Why was the hamstring severed? Why is there an inhuman presence in the abdomen? Finally, why did she commit suicide?

"And is the life substance I'm looking for related to this village?" Li Yelai was thinking in his heart, but he didn't know whether to contact them.

Although it was speculated that they were descendants of the sages, the corpse of the pregnant woman and the severed backpack warned Li Yelai that this village was definitely not simple.

Fortunately, Li Yelai's physical strength was strong enough that he could easily observe the villagers even if they were far away.

As a result, Li Yelai continued to hide in the jungle and watched the villagers' actions from a distance.

This village is not big, but there are about a hundred people.

Their faces were rosy, and both men and women seemed very comfortable and content, with smiles always on their faces.

There seems to be no worries, and that's right. In this environment, civilization cannot develop. As long as they can eat and drink enough, they will be satisfied.

A prosperous environment with no work, no danger, and no stress in life. It really is a paradise.

But the strange thing is that Li Yelai didn't see the old man in it. Was he in the house? Or is it because humans age very slowly in this special environment?

As time passed and the sun set, the villagers also walked towards the center of the village.

After a brief hesitation, Li Yelai followed him under the cover of night.

In the center of the village is a large tree that is so big that it takes more than a dozen people to surround it.

The tree is generally reddish, with no leaves on its intricate branches.

In the middle of the trunk, there is a large tree hole.

At this moment, the villagers gathered under the ancient tree and worshiped it. They seemed to regard the ancient tree as their faith.

Li Yelai looked at the old tree and thought: "Is the temperature in this valley normal because of this big red tree?"

It was at this time that Li Yelai saw an older man from a distance, who seemed to be in his early fifties. His clothes were obviously more elaborate, and he wore a black cloak with black feathers hanging down. He was holding a red wooden pole and dancing under the ancient tree, as if he was performing some kind of ritual.

The villagers were kneeling on the ground, looking at the man with fervent and expectant faces.

As the wooden gun in the man's hand fell and was aimed at a middle-aged man with white temples in the crowd, all the villagers burst into cheers of joy.

The middle-aged man also stood up with excitement on his face, stepped forward and knelt in front of the man in black.

The man in black tapped the middle-aged man's head with his red cane and nodded slightly.

Immediately, the middle-aged man stood up and climbed up the old red tree with a sincere expression.

Li Yelai frowned slightly when he saw this scene. He didn't know what he was going to do.

But I saw the middle-aged man climbing up the old tree with great effort, getting closer to the tree hole in the middle. Finally, the whole person actually got into the tree hole.

I don't know if it was a problem of the angle or if there was another structure inside the ancient tree, but Li Ye couldn't see the middle-aged man.

And all the villagers were holding their breath at this moment, staring at the ancient tree.

A few minutes later, a muscular arm stretched out from the tree hole, and then a figure climbed out of the tree hole.

It was the middle-aged man who had crawled into the tree hole before. No, we can’t say we are middle-aged now, we should say we are young!

His ears and temples were a little gray before, but now they are black, and all the wrinkles on his face have disappeared. His somewhat rickety body is now extremely tall and straight, and his mature face has become a little immature.

If it weren't for the original look on his face, Li Yelai would have thought it was another person.

He is rejuvenated!

The villagers congratulated happily, while the young man jumped off the old tree. He picked up a young woman and carried her around.

His body is younger and stronger, and he seems to have endless power!

Li Yelai was extremely shocked when he saw this scene.

Regardless of the fact that there are no old people in the village, this ancient tree has the effect of rejuvenating people, truly making the middle-aged man look younger. He was still out of breath after climbing a tree before, but now he was walking as fast as flying.

The ancient tree gave him unimaginable vitality!

"Could this be the life substance I'm looking for?" Li Yelai thought quickly in his mind. If it is true, then the old mad king is really invincible!

Directly rejuvenate him and keep him at his peak posture. When a mad king at his peak posture is alive, which king of the restricted area dares to be so presumptuous?

The old mad king's combat power is very terrifying. He seems to be at the forefront among the kings, even more powerful than the Amber King.

Of course, considering that this was said by colleagues from Border City No. 3, it might be an exaggeration, but Li Yelai was willing to believe it because he was also from Border City No. 3.

But Li Yelai also knew that this was impossible.

Everything comes at a price, so what is the price for their rejuvenation?

Li Yelai looked at the enthusiastic villagers and felt a little uneasy. He is even more wary of this ancient tree.

In order to determine whether what he was looking for was this ancient tree, Li Yelai looked at the pathfinding compass hanging on his chest again.

I found that the compass was still pointing forward. Was it really this ancient tree?

Is this living matter?

Li Yelai frowned and stroked the compass to check, but his expression changed wildly.

In his field of vision, the compass pointer pointed in the direction Li Yelai was facing, but when Li Yelai stretched out his hand to touch it, he couldn't touch the pointer. Instead, he touched the pointer about five degrees to the side.

The compass needle still existed and pointed in the right direction, but Li Ye couldn't see it and could only see a false needle and direction.

His vision was deceived! No, not only vision, but also perception has been deceived!

He fell into the trap without even realizing it!

Without any hesitation, Li Yelai grabbed the black gold dragon pattern gun, the spiritual energy all over his body surged and bloomed, and the spiritual energy barrier was opened to the maximum!

He doesn't know when he was tricked, but what is certain is that he is in danger now!

As spiritual energy bloomed, the picture in front of Li Yelai shattered. A huge red ancient tree was not far away, and in the tree hole, a huge eyeball was staring at Li Yelai. The moment Li Yelai's spiritual energy exploded, another wave of spiritual energy neutralized Li Yelai's spiritual energy barrier.

There were no farmland or fruit trees around Li Yelai.

Instead, they were surrounding some withered-looking humans, and they approached Li Yelai with sharp weapons in hand. And just one step in front of Li Yelai, there were several huge animal traps lined up. Whenever Li Yelai takes a step when his vision is deceived, he will be caught in the trap.

The two figures even took out a huge pair of scissors and unknowingly placed them on both sides of Li Yelai's legs.

At the same time, Li Yelai also heard a cruel low drink.

"He found out!"

"Quickly pick his hands and feet!"

The violent slash fell instantly, viciously slashing at Li Yelai's right hand holding the gun.

At the same time, the big scissors on the ground closed in an instant.

Obviously, they wanted to amputate Li Yelai's legs and arms as quickly as possible!

For Li Yelai, they were too close.

Without enough time to react, Li Yelai instantly activated Mimicry Abyssal Dragon Scale!

The dark shadow of dragon scales appeared, and the ax and giant scissors fell and closed. But it struck directly on the dragon scale.

Li Yelai kicked quickly, twisted his body with all his strength in mid-air, and swept the black gold dragon pattern gun in his hand like a whirlwind!

Eighteen picks with one hand·Elephant step!

The black gold dragon-patterned gun tore through the air and exploded, and the terrifying sound of dragon roars bloomed. It hit the three sneak attackers directly.

‘Bang’ ‘Bang’ Bang’

Three loud noises sounded almost at the same time, and the three people were instantly smashed into the air. Among them, the two people who were squatting on the ground and controlling huge scissors were whipped on their shoulders, and their arms were broken directly, while the person behind them who was attacking with an ax was directly broken. He lifted his waist and flew out.

Li Yelai did not dare to stop at all. He used air stepping to increase the distance, only to find that the spiritual energy of air stepping was being neutralized. The efficiency is reduced a lot.

Stepping in the air is a means of psychic barrier, using the psychic barrier to achieve an alley-oop.

But at this moment, the psychic barrier was weak, and stepping on it felt like stepping on a sponge. This made Li Yelai's speed slow down a lot.

That ancient tree is still neutralizing Li Yelai's spiritual energy. Is this also their plan?

Through sensory deception, let Li Yelai guide him to the ancient tree before taking action?

"What are you doing? See clearly that I am a human being!" Li Yelai roared.

"It won't be anymore soon!" A figure sneered.

The attacker whose waist had been broken before instantly straightened up, and his broken vertebrae seemed to be repairing quickly.

At the same time, the withered humanoid figures surrounding them all launched attacks instantly.

This also made Li Yelai wake up instantly. How could there be any human village? How can there be any rejuvenation? These are all perceptual deceptions!

The withered appearance of these faces is their true appearance. Li Yelai even saw a few figures with wings among them.

Have even the creatures in the restricted area become one of them?

They seemed to be a composite of flesh and blood and tree fibers. They had branches or buds growing out of their bodies. Their bodies were withered but had tenacious vitality!

Damn it! Why did you run into something like this?

Li Yelai cursed secretly in his mind and forced himself to use the air step to quickly move away from the ancient tree.

The withered ones, on the other hand, chased them quickly. Their spiritual power was average, and they had three or four awakenings.

Normally, Li Yelai could easily kill him. But under the influence of the ancient tree, his spiritual energy was affected and it was difficult for him to exert his full strength. Moreover, their injuries recovered extremely quickly. You can't fall in love with war, it's too weird!

Li Yelai tried to distance himself, but saw a withered man wearing a black cloak coming towards him with a red wooden stick in his hand.

It's the middle-aged man in the fantasy!

"Stay, human. You will also be blessed with immortality." He raised his hand indifferently, and the wooden stick in his hand fell like a stone. The strong wind surged, and wind blades emerged and slashed at Li Yelai. He is actually a five-sense psychic!

But Li Yelai didn't dodge or dodge, and hit the wind blade head-on, using the Abyssal Dragon Scales to resist. At the same time, the black gold dragon pattern gun in his hand stabbed out instantly.

Eighteen picks with one hand·Rhinoceros collision!

I saw a cold light piercing through the strong wind, piercing straight towards me!

The middle-aged man's face changed. He probably didn't expect the fourth-level psychic to dare to resist his attack, and was directly penetrated through the chest by Li Yelai.

Li Yelai was not seriously injured despite the scattered dragon scales on his body. However, the backpack behind him was cut open and some props were scattered.

Li Yelai took advantage of the situation and twisted the spear, picking eighteen moves with one hand and turning!

It directly tore the middle-aged man's chest and shoulders. This time, Li Ye came to kill him.

But he saw vines growing out of the middle-aged man's chest and quickly sewing up the flesh.

The drooping head is still speaking: "You are strong, human. But it's useless. I will wait for you to die. Stay here, the sacred tree will make you feel the beauty of everything. We have not had it for more than six years." New member."

"That's right, humans, don't resist. Just continue to dwell in the wonderful dreamland." A withered person chased after him, but he tried to persuade him: "Have you ever tasted the taste of an angel? It's really good."

"No need, you don't need to send it away!"

Li Yelai could only pick up the flaming oil lamp from the scattered props and quickly leave the battlefield.

But the other blighters are hot on their heels.

As Li Yelai distanced himself from the ancient tree, spiritual energy was gradually no longer suppressed, but those withered ones didn't care.

Li Yelai danced with the dragon spear in his hand and killed several withered ones, but saw that they quickly repaired themselves in the next second and got up to chase.

A dozen unkillable psychics bit Li Yelai.

Even though Li Yelai rushed up the snowy mountain and had to turn on the raging oil lamp, they still refused to give up. Their bodies were frozen, but they were forced to move, shattering and recovering at the same time. Biting Li Yelai tightly.

Li Yelai understood why he saw the severed mountaineering bag at that time. It was because a psychic who entered the snow mountain was being hunted by them!

And because it was close to the Snowy Mountains, Li Yelai didn't dare to open Facebook for fear of triggering another avalanche.

The middle-aged man who was chasing him said coldly: "That's all, we can't capture him. But we can't let outsiders know our information."

"Understood." Several withers sneered, and immediately their spiritual energy surged, and they attacked Li Yelai desperately.

The middle-aged man waved his red cane, and a strong wind surged in an instant.

"I gave you a chance, human. You can be buried here."

The next moment, a storm surged above the snow-capped mountains, and the terrifying low temperature raged.

Li Yelai could clearly feel that the temperature around him was getting lower and lower, and the burning oil lamps seemed to have reached their limit.

The maximum height of the oil lamp is five hundred meters, and now Li Yelai is close to the maximum height.

This also made Li Yelai's eyes become colder. At the moment of life and death, he no longer had any scruples and was ready to fight.

A snowstorm, right? How about meeting an avalanche?

So, Facebook, River of Blood.

But at this moment, Li Yelai felt a burst of heat in his chest, and a warmth bloomed in the box hidden in his arms.

Those are the hand bones of the Vast Supreme! (End of chapter)
