Chapter 262 Battle in Devil's Valley (VI)

"This depends on you. Haven't you practiced the art of splitting the gods? Only this secret art can work here. The root of the ancestral tree that has not yet withered will still emit a weak breath of the netherworld. With the help of the petrified ancestral root in the valley pit, it absorbs the devil's energy and ghost fog for its growth and expansion. You divide dozens of divine consciousness and spread them around to see which direction's divine consciousness is devoured the fastest, and the approximate location is there." The Greedy Wolf King said in a solemn voice.

In this Devil Valley, due to its special terrain, Greedy Wolf is like a blind man when he arrives here. He hid in Wu Yan's body, and the reason why he could check the surrounding situation was only because of his huge divine consciousness. But the magic cloud and the nether spring here all have the effect of devouring divine consciousness, so he can only rely on Wu Yan's pair of naked eyes to find things in the valley. Fortunately, Wu Yan's eyes have gradually acquired some spiritual eyes due to the practice of the "Five Elements Sword Canon", so he is more advantageous here than ordinary cultivators.

"Senior Tan Lang, you are not joking, are you? You also know that the dark spring and the devilish energy here can devour the consciousness, but you still come up with such a bad idea? Besides, if it is really that simple, hasn't anyone tried it before?" Wu Yan said with some doubt and dissatisfaction.

Once the Soul Splitting Technique is used, the split consciousness will inevitably be completely devoured, which will naturally cause certain damage to its original spirit.

"Don't worry, find the root of the ancestral tree, and this king will have a way to restore your damaged consciousness. Why do you think there is such a heavy devilish fog in this Devil Valley, and why can it devour people's consciousness? If it weren't for this surviving ancestral root, how could such a heavy devilish fog gather here, and it would have dissipated long ago." King Tan Lang hesitated for a moment, and then told Wu Yan the reason why this Devil Valley had formed the current situation.

Wu Yan had been secretly wondering why there was such a heavy devilish fog here, and it turned out to be related to this ancestral root that had not yet died. However, he still had some doubts. Judging from the petrified ancestral root, the root of the Soul-Nourishing Ancestral Tree must be very solid, and ordinary magic weapons could not damage it at all. Even if he found it, how could he cut it out?

Thinking of this, Wu Yan couldn't help but ask Tan Lang: "Senior Tan Lang, how can I collect this ancestral root?"

"Don't you have the Heaven and Earth Furnace? Don't worry, as long as you find the ancestral root, you take out the Heaven and Earth Furnace and put it on it, and this furnace will collect this innate spiritual root." King Tan Lang seemed to be very familiar with everything, which made Wu Yan secretly feel very strange.

According to King Tan Lang, this treasure was a treasure made by Dao Zu himself. Its function was naturally known to Dao Zu, and outsiders might not know it, but why did King Tan Lang know it clearly? Could it be that this treasure has other origins?

"You mean, as long as it is an innate thing, my furnace can collect it?" Wu Yan said strangely.

"Yes, yes, is it clear enough now? This is the treasure that Li Chuiniu is most proud of. Humph, if it weren't for the quick action of the old Saint Emperor, who knocked this treasure down to the mortal world with a stick, how would you have the chance to pick it up? It's really troublesome, hurry up and find it! I sensed that the spirit body has appeared in the valley before. Hurry up and find the ancestor root, let's find the king's clone quickly. With the clone, the king can leave your body and move freely. Ah, how many years have I not experienced the taste of moving in this world?" The greedy wolf king became irritable and said impatiently.

Wu Yan thought about it, then jumped out of the water and walked to the center of the pit according to his instructions. There are pits and thorns everywhere here. Wood petrified objects, which are probably left after the ancestor root was bombarded by thunder. Judging from the remaining mountain body of this Jingang Mountain, this pit should be at least a thousand feet deep. Looking up, it is deep and dark, and only a small cave-like faint light exit can be seen. That must be the peak of the remnant of Mount Kongjin.

Wu Yan sat on a wooden petrified object with clear texture in the center, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to split a group of consciousness according to the method of splitting the spirit. Then, he divided the split group of consciousness into ten again.

In order to prevent these consciousnesses from being swallowed too quickly, which would cause him to be unable to judge where the ancestral roots were, he did not immediately drive these ten consciousnesses out of his body, but observed the surroundings.

Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a place.

That place was less than 20 feet away from where he was sitting cross-legged, but there was a dark magic column about several feet thick rising into the sky. This dark magic column was not there just now, but only appeared when he sat cross-legged here and began to split his consciousness.

This discovery made him extremely excited. Because he could see that the magic column was actually formed by a hole several feet in size below that directly sucked down the dark magic cloud above the pit.

After carefully looking at other places, no similar anomalies occurred. Wu Yan thought about what the Greedy Wolf King had said just now, and suddenly he sent out all ten consciousnesses. However, he used two of them to hit the direction of the evil spirit column.

As soon as the consciousness left the body, Wu Yan's eyebrows twitched a few times and he groaned.

The ten consciousnesses that fled in all directions were swallowed up by the evil spirits around them as soon as they left the body.

In the blink of an eye, all ten consciousnesses were swallowed up completely.

"It's really here!" Wu Yan stood up and walked towards the evil spirit column.

Just when he used his spiritual sense to detect, he noticed that the spiritual senses that fled in all directions were swallowed up by the surrounding demonic energy when they fled, but strangely, the eight spiritual senses that fled in other directions were actually swallowed up by the inexplicable suction force emitted by the several-zhang-sized hole.

"Senior Tan Lang, there is a three-zhang-sized hole here. At this moment, this hole is madly swallowing the demonic energy and ghost fog floating in the hole, and several of the ten spiritual senses I just shot out were actually sucked in and swallowed by this hole. Could it be that the ancestor root is in this cave?" Wu Yan asked Tan Lang while carefully looking at the terrain around the hole.

If this hole was not madly swallowing the demonic cloud, Wu Yan might not be able to detect the abnormality of this hole.

Because, there are at least ten holes of several zhang in size like the one in front of him on this petrified ancestor root, and they are even distributed in a circular shape in all directions. The cave where Wu Yan is now is right in the center, just like the center of a circular pattern, which is very strange.

"It must be in this cave. Be careful, don't use the consciousness of the Yuanshen to explore below. Climb down along the mountain wall in the cave to see where the demonic energy and ghost fog are sucked to." Tan Lang transmitted the voice.

Wu Yan secretly alerted himself, and then looked down, but because the demonic energy and ghost fog were too dark and dense, he couldn't see anything at a glance.

After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and climbed up the rock wall of the cave entrance with his hands, and slowly climbed down along the mountain wall of the cave entrance.

The demonic energy and ghost fog were constantly sucked down from all sides, and the water-blue membrane floated from Wu Yan's body surface, constantly repelling the demonic energy and ghost fog that wanted to invade his body.

The demonic energy and ghost fog here cannot be absorbed and refined at all. If they are allowed to invade the body, they will even cause great damage to the body. Fortunately, Wu Yan had the dragon scale armor to protect him, otherwise, he really couldn't go down in this deep cave full of evil spirits and ghost fog.

This cave was extremely deep and winding, and there were maze-like small holes in many places. If it weren't for the evil spirits constantly pouring into it and being swallowed up madly along a specific path, it would be impossible to tell the direction.

After crawling down for more than an hour, Wu Yan finally felt his feet stepping on the wet ground.

Here, the surging force of swallowing was even greater. Even if he didn't use any mana or any consciousness, he could feel that the mana in his body was almost out of control and was about to burst out of his body. And the soul consciousness was even more difficult to hold on. This extremely uncomfortable and painful situation almost made Wu Yan unable to hold on.

Suddenly, the evil spirits and ghost fog pouring into the cave stopped abruptly. The crazy absorption and swallowing power also disappeared.

Wu Yan's face changed, and he hurriedly turned around to look for it. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and saw that the faint demonic mist was gradually dissipating from a ten-foot-thick, ancient petrified wood object that looked like a dragon. Obviously, it was the demonic mist that was absorbed by the black petrified wood root that stretched across the cave.

Wu Yan could clearly feel a cold and ancient breath coming from the ten-foot-thick ancestral root.

He walked towards the petrified ancestral root step by step. When he got closer, Wu Yan kept looking at the petrified ancestral root, but after carefully examining it for a long time, he could not see any special features of the ancestral root, let alone any signs of life on it. This is clearly a black stone like a tree root.

Wu Yan told the Greedy Wolf King about his discovery in detail. At the same time, he felt that his consciousness was gradually becoming a little blurred, and a faint voice seemed to be hovering in his mind. In a daze, he couldn't help but reach out to touch the ancestral root.

"Stop! Do you want to die like a dried human? Dare to touch the innate ancestral root that has not been sacrificed?" The Greedy Wolf King suddenly shouted.

Wu Yan hurriedly retracted his hand, and the confused expression on his face instantly sobered up. Wu Yan looked at the stone-like ancestral root in front of him in horror, and broke out in a cold sweat.

This soul-nourishing ancestral root is indeed strange, and it can emit a special breath that confuses people's minds. It seems that if it weren't for its weak vitality and the reminder of Greedy Wolf next to it, Wu Yan doesn't know what will happen now.

"Okay, don't dawdle. Take out the Heaven and Earth Furnace quickly, aim the furnace mouth at this root, and collect the spiritual root nurtured and nurtured in it." The Greedy Wolf King urged.

Wu Yan was delighted when he heard the words, and immediately took out the small furnace he had always carried with him from his arms, and quickly opened the furnace cover, and aimed the mouth of the small furnace at the petrified root in front of him.
