Chapter 297 Immortal Demon Tree

At the exit of the cave, the dark demonic energy that spewed out of the cave was pulled by a strange magic array and poured into a forbidden array next to the cave entrance.

In the forbidden array, there was not only dark demonic energy, but also a large amount of dark green poisonous fog. On the ground inside the forbidden array, there was even a thick layer of poisonous spiritual materials.

A strange tree with a bowl-sized thickness grew in the forbidden array. The color of the strange tree was dark green, and there was a thick demonic and poisonous gas lingering on it. When you look closely, you can see that the strange tree, which was less than three feet high and bare without branches and leaves, was full of strange golden shelled insects as big as human heads.

The golden shelled insects were nearly two feet long, with strange dark green mouthparts, which looked indescribably terrifying. However, these strange insects seemed to be clinging to this strange tree and hibernating.

This tree is the famous Demon Copper Tree in the world of immortal cultivation. This tree looks like a copper pillar, with no branches or leaves, only a trunk, and its color is similar to rusted bronze. As long as there are poisonous nutrients and demonic energy, it can grow. This tree is also called the "Immortal Demon Tree". This tree can be seen in the tombs of many demon cultivators.

This "Immortal Demon Tree" is said to keep the demon cultivator's body from decaying and his soul from dying, so that he can always maintain the state before death and enter a state of suspended animation that is neither dead nor alive. They naturally hope that one day, there will be a possibility of resurrection.

Unfortunately, the cycle of heaven is beyond human control. These demon cultivators wishful thinking, planted a large number of this "Immortal Demon Tree", but inadvertently developed another unique use of this demon tree.

It is said that the first demon cultivator who planted this "Immortal Demon Tree" in the tomb, ten thousand years after his death, actually gave birth to a very strange demon corpse worm in his body. This demon corpse worm particularly likes to parasitize on this "Immortal Demon Tree", and absorbs the demon poison gas on this tree, and slowly grows into an "Immortal Demon Worm". This "Immortal Demon Worm" is very strange. Even if you kill it, or even grind its corpse into powder and burn it into ashes, it can still revive with a trace of breath attached to the "Immortal Demon Tree". This is a veritable "Immortal Demon Worm".

However, it is a pity that many people want to cultivate this "Immortal Demon Worm", but they are helpless because they cannot cultivate a ten thousand year old "Immortal Demon Tree".

Wu Yan also found a piece of the root of this "Immortal Demon Tree" when he accidentally searched for the poisonous spiritual materials given to him by Zhu Junyu. During this retreat, Wu Yan thought of the magical properties of this tree and was tempted to plant one next to the demonic cave. Anyway, there are plenty of poisonous spiritual materials and nutrients, and the demonic energy in this cave is becoming more and more abundant. All conditions are met. In addition, he has the fairy green soil, a metamorphic fairy soil that can accelerate the age of trees. He thought, why not take this opportunity to cultivate his 110 mutated swallowing worms into immortal insect bodies, wouldn’t it be more powerful in the future?

What Wu Yan didn’t expect was that after these 110 swallowing worms attached to this tree, it took less than ten years to successfully integrate the breath of the insect body into the immortal demon tree. As long as they continue to grow like this for a few years, they will surely be able to achieve an immortal body and there will be hope of success. What’s even more bizarre is that after this cultivation, these swallowing worms have successfully advanced to maturity in just twenty years.

Now, all 110 swallowing worms have matured. After the mature Sky-Swallowing Worms mate, all the male worms have been swallowed by the female worms. The female worms that have swallowed all the male worms have also entered a dormant period. When they wake up, they will lay eggs. As for what will happen to the female worms after laying eggs, Wu Yan is not sure.

Now, this "Immortal Demon Tree" is already a mature tree with a tree age of ten thousand years, and there is no need to ripen it. With the current state of this tree, Wu Yan can take it away and make it into a magic treasure at any time.

With such a magic treasure in hand, the Sky-Swallowing Worms whose aura is attached to it can be resurrected on this magic treasure at any time even if they are killed in a battle.

However, now these Sky-Swallowing Worms have not laid eggs, nor have they fully achieved the immortal worm body, so he is naturally not in a hurry to refine the tree body of this "Immortal Demon Tree" into a magic treasure and store it in the Blood Palace.

After seeing that the more than fifty Sky-Swallowing Worms seemed to have no signs of waking up, Wu Yan left the forbidden formation.

Wu Yan returned to his usual place of meditation and practice, and slept for several days. When his spirit was restored to the best state, Wu Yan silently thought about the method and process of refining the magic weapon of Shenzhen Iron Flying Sword several times, and then took out the materials and tools for the formation, and began to arrange them within a radius of ten feet around him.

Half a month later, a special spirit gathering forbidden formation was set up. In this spirit gathering forbidden formation, four strange light columns as thick as buckets surrounded the big stone where Wu Yan sat cross-legged, illuminating the entire island like daylight.

After doing this, Wu Yan slapped the green ox bag and took out the fist-sized piece of Shenzhen Iron.

Wu Yan took a deep breath and cast a spell on the Shenzhen Iron.

With a flash of green light, the Shenzhen Iron floated not far in front of him. Wu Yan then opened his mouth and spurted out a dark blue pill fire.

Following the guidance of the magic formula, the elixir fire immediately wrapped up the precious iron floating in the green light and began to calcine and refine it.

However, the strange thing is that the whole divine treasure iron is black, and it has not changed at all after being burned by the dark blue fire. Moreover, a layer of imperceptible black light is faintly released on the divine treasure iron, isolating the dark blue fire.

Wu Yan seemed to have expected this situation a long time ago, and he was not anxious. He let the dark blue fire continue to burn the divine treasure iron. Once he saw that the fire was slightly weaker, he immediately opened his mouth and spit out another dark blue fire to replenish its fire.

As the fire burned, the complicated spells were constantly hit on the divine treasure iron wrapped by the fire.

This dark blue fire consumes a lot of mana, so Wu Yan would take some pills to replenish mana while constantly burning the divine treasure iron with the fire.

In order to condense the magic weapon, he has also opened the furnace to refine a lot of pills in the past 20 years, which are enough to support the entire condensation process.

After more than ten days, the fire finally burned away the black light wrapped around the divine iron. The divine iron also began to turn red and glow in the burning, and then began to melt into strands of fiery red liquid.

Ten days passed again, and the entire divine iron was completely melted into red iron juice.

Wu Yan wiped the sweat from his head, and without stopping, he continued to spray out the blue fire, wrapping the red iron juice to keep it in this state.

At the same time, he began to cast a series of extremely complicated spells again, and a series of spiritual filaments were injected from the spells into the iron juice, pulling the iron juice to change its shape according to the shape of the flying sword blank.

Wu Yan's face was calm as he continued to use the spells to pull the sword blank formed by the iron juice to stretch and flatten it, making it look exactly like the golden flying sword recorded in the "Five Elements Sword Canon".

After several hours, Wu Yan casually grabbed two Qi-boosting pills and threw them into his mouth, but he stared at the small fiery red flying sword floating in front of him without blinking. When it finally formed into a slender flying sword like a sharp cone, exactly as described in the "Five Elements Sword Canon", he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Wu Yan bit his tongue and spurted out a mouthful of blood, which condensed into two blood lines on his face. Wu Yan pointed his finger and the two blood lines rushed to the front and back of the fiery red sword from left to right.

As soon as the two blood lines touched the small sword, they suddenly disappeared. After a while, two blood-red filaments floated on both sides of the fiery red sword.

Wu Yan's face was slightly happy, and he used his magic power to guide the fiery red sword into a strange light column next to it.

As the small sword was thrown into the light column, the entire light column suddenly flashed with intense light, and then white smoke and water vapor began to emerge.

The originally fiery red small sword gradually began to cool down as a large amount of white smoke and water vapor dissipated. The light column flickered constantly.

After a while, the white smoke and water vapor dissipated, and the small sword had turned black again. However, if you look closely, you can find that there are two faint blood threads on both sides of the small sword body.

Wu Yan finally exhaled deeply, revealing a relaxed and tired look.

He let the small sword condensed from the divine precious iron float in the light column, but he got up and walked out of the magic circle. Wu Yan had been condensing this treasure for more than a month, and he didn't sleep much. This time he wanted to have a good sleep, and then check it out to see how the blood-transforming grass grew, and then start to condense the second flying sword magic weapon.

...

Wucheng. In the Wuhou Mansion.

All the core disciples of the Wu family gathered in one room. Wu Shan, the Wuhou, sat behind the big desk with a body like an iron tower, staring at the people in the hall, and said: "Everyone, now the entire Tianlang Kingdom is under my control. The Wolf King intends to abdicate to me. Do you think I should take the throne?"

As soon as Wu Shan finished speaking, two equally majestic and powerful young men standing in the hall showed joy on their faces at the same time. These two people were the brothers Wu Dalong and Wu Xiaohu.

Wu Xiaohu stood out from the crowd and bowed to Wu Shan, saying: "Father, since the Wolf King intends to abdicate, you can take this opportunity to ascend to the throne and become the master of Tianlang Kingdom! I will be your vanguard and sweep away all the stumbling blocks that dare to block you!"

"Not right!" As soon as Wu Xiaohu finished speaking, a fifty-year-old man in armor stood up. This man was Zhang Tao, the leader of the Iron Blood Alliance who had always been with Wu Shan and never left him. He just bowed to Wu Shan and continued, "Wu Hou, this is not appropriate. Wu Hou, please think about it, why do we expand our territory? Isn't it to let the people live a good life, appreciate Wu Hou's kindness, and pray for the old master and the old lady? If Wu Hou rashly abolishes the Wolf King, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from the people at home and give them an excuse. This move is undoubtedly contrary to our original intention. Wu Hou, please think twice!"
