Ancient God Evolver

Chapter 61 The Demonic Tree’s Request

After the undead skeleton fell to the ground, the huge waves it condensed dissipated and turned into raindrops the size of mung beans and fell on the ground.

Gu Ning breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't expect this undead skeleton to be so powerful. It was far from being comparable to the totem warriors or ferocious beasts in the God Refining Realm outside.

Letting go of his right hand, the flame sword turned into sparks with a "bang" sound, and the sea of ​​​​fire behind him also disappeared.

Looking down at the broken skeleton in half, he saw a blue flame floating out from the bones and hanging in front of Gu Ning.

"What is this?" Gu Ning did not move rashly and used her analytical talent to investigate.

[Name]: Ghost Fire
[Description]: After the death of the undead in the Zhongtian Divine Realm, there is a very small probability of dropping a precious spiritual object, which can greatly increase the user's soul power.

"Ok?"

Gu Ning's eyes lit up. He was currently stuck at the tenth level of the Body Refining Realm and was worried that he would not have the resources to break through to the God Refining Realm.

With his background, if he wanted to break through to the God Refining Realm, he would need extremely many resources.

I didn't expect that killing the undead would actually drop such a spiritual item that enhances the soul. It's really wonderful to give him a pillow when I feel sleepy.

Without hesitation, Gu Ning immediately took the ghostly fire into his body and slowly closed his eyes.

An extremely turbulent, hot and violent force was absorbed by Gu Ning's soul, and the violent power ran around in his soul, orbiting around the big circle.

Every time it moves through the Great Zhoutian, the violent power decreases by one point, turning into pure power to strengthen Gu Ning's soul.

After ten breaths, when Gu Ning swallowed up all the ghost fire and turned it into pure power to nourish the soul, he opened his eyes.

The power of the soul has grown a lot, and Gu Ning estimates that he will need at least four more to break through to the realm of god refining.

Fortunately, Zhongtian Divine Realm is a country of the undead. Even if the drop rate is very low, as long as you kill enough, you can always gather the resources for your breakthrough.

It's just that now I can't use the ancient deity, which will greatly reduce my strength.

Fortunately, this world is extremely special, and the elemental power is extremely active. The power of the flowing blade like fire here is several times that of the outside world.

"Boom!"

The ground suddenly began to tremble, and dust suddenly rose up in the distance. Gu Ning looked up and saw countless skeleton monsters coming towards the east at extremely fast speeds.

There was even a bone beast as tall as a hill, dragging its huge body and running towards here.

Every time he took a step, the ground shook and the mountains and rivers shattered. The sight made Gu Ning's eyes twitch.

"Oops, the battle was too noisy and attracted the attention of other monsters."

Without thinking, Gu Ning immediately activated the surging fire elemental power in his body. The scorching flames formed a pair of blazing wings behind him. They flapped violently, shattering the sky, rushing to the horizon, blowing away the diffuse mist, and turning into a stream of red light. Go away empty.

Unable to perform ancient deification, he had no confidence in dealing with so many skeleton monsters at the same time.

Anyway, the opening time of this secret realm in the beginning is as long as half a year, so you can take it slowly, don't be too anxious.

Your life is at stake, run away!

"Bah!" A sharp roar sounded high in the sky.

A powerful hurricane swept across, with bright golden light. The sweeping hurricane was like a series of strange wind blades, blowing across Gu Ning's body.

"pain!"

Unimaginable pain broke out all over his body, and in just a moment, Gu Ning's body spurted out hot blood, turning him into a bloody man.

The flame wings behind him dissipated, and the whole person fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed.

"Damn it." Blood overflowed from Gu Ning's eyes, and his retinas were blood red. He looked upwards and saw a huge thing covered in golden light flashing past, and he couldn't even see what it looked like.

Gu Ning endured the pain and adjusted his posture. The blazing power surged out from behind him and turned into wings again. At the same time, he mobilized the power of the fire element between heaven and earth to form a fire net to slow down his fall.

Directly below was a big tree that grew like a mushroom in the sky. Gu Ning hurriedly dispersed the power of the fire element and fell into the dense sea of ​​forest leaves. He kept falling, breaking branches, and finally got stuck at the end of a branch. .

"Cough! Cough!"

Gu Ning couldn't help but cough up a pool of blood, and her face turned extremely pale.

Fortunately, even if he was unable to undergo ancient deification, Gu Ning's physical body was still extremely powerful.

In just a moment, the horrific, almost exposed scars all over his body slowly healed, leaving only the white marks.

Gu Ning cut off the branch with force, dropped it to the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then looked at the surrounding environment.

The floor beneath his feet was brown rock, covered with scarlet blood that could not be washed away in millions of years.

Even now, Gu Ning can still smell the pungent smell of rusty iron.Directly in front are two entrances with lowered iron prison doors, and above are densely packed auditoriums, but they are already covered with moss and filled with bones.

This seems to be an arena from a long time ago, extremely large in scale.

Taking a gentle breath, the disgusting smell of blood and rusty iron rushed into his nose, making Gu Ning feel a little uncomfortable.

He raised his head and looked at the big tree in the sky. This big tree grew in the center of the arena. Its main trunk was more than ten meters thick, breaking the surface of the earth. Its horny dragon-like roots penetrated deeply into the earth and grew downward.

"Humanity."

An old voice like a big bell suddenly rang in his ears. Gu Ning was startled and looked around, but he didn't find any living thing.

Finally, he seemed to have thought of something, and he retreated suddenly, came to the audience seat, and looked at the towering tree with a solemn expression.

"I don't mean any harm, I just want to ask you a favor."

A withered, wrinkled human face appeared on the thick tree trunk.

[Name]: Bloody Demonic Tree

[Attribute]: Demon, Wood
[Description]: A demonic tree that grew by swallowing the flesh and blood of tens of thousands of people. It is extremely good at deceiving people, so please treat it with caution.

Gu Ning's face remained calm. He took a look at the bloody demon tree and found that there was nothing strange about it, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If he can detect his investigation, the realm is at least the existence of the peak of the six realms.

Now it seems that this magic tree is not very strong, Gu Ning wants to see what it wants to do.

So he asked: "What are you doing? If there is no benefit, I won't do it."

Gu Ning folded her hands and looked at the ferocious old tree with a human face in the distance.

A flash of joy flashed across the old face of the bloody demon tree. Sure enough, humans are still so greedy, and he said: "This was the Colosseum during the Apocalypse. A large number of ferocious beasts and humans died every day."

"It's just that unimaginable disasters have happened, and this place has become an abandoned place."

"The flesh and blood of the dead body will be devoured by a spiritual weapon called the Demon-Drinking Knife."

"And the Demon-Drinking Knife is buried in the deepest part of the Colosseum. I hope you can help me find it."

"When it's done, I will give you enough benefits."

Gu Ning interrupted it and said coldly: "Do you really think I'm a fool? You are already rooted here, and your branches can go deep into the ground. You still need my help? Besides, I helped you find the so-called What good can you do with the Demon-Drinking Knife?"

The bloody demon tree was not in a hurry and said slowly: "The demon-drinking knife is placed in a formation. That formation will absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and circulate on its own. It cannot be cracked by my ability, so I want to ask for your help."

"As for the benefits, the Demon-Drinking Knife has been nourished by spiritual energy for many years and has swallowed countless flesh and blood. It itself contains huge and pure power."

"If you can get this power initiation, your cultivation will definitely be greatly improved."

Gu Ning pondered, as if considering it, and the Bloody Demonic Tree was not in a hurry, with a smile on its old face, as if it was not worried that Gu Ning would reject its proposal.

After a long time, Gu Ning said: "I can agree, but I can't guarantee that I can complete your request, so I need you to pay some other remuneration first."

The old face of the bloody demon tree was not surprising, and even took it for granted, saying: "This is the essence of the tree that I nurtured for hundreds of years. After use, it can wash the marrow and cut the bones, allowing the talent to reach another level. It contains Its energy can even allow you to break through to the realm of refining gods." Obviously, this old tree has a vicious eye, and he can tell Gu Ning's current state at a glance.

After all, a bead exuding a bright green light flew out of the bloody demon tree and hung in front of Gu Ning.

Gu Ning calmly stretched out his palm, and a golden barrier formed by flames wrapped the "essence of the tree", and then put it away. The eyes of the old face of the bloody demon tree twitched, and he couldn't help but said: "You are actually You can use the essence of this tree to improve your cultivation first, and then help me find the Demon Drinking Knife."

Gu Ning's face showed a trace of joy, unable to conceal his excitement, he said with a smile: "It's better to help the senior take out the Demon Drinking Knife first, otherwise the junior will feel uneasy holding such a precious treasure!"

"Forget it, since you said so, let's leave without further delay." The Bloody Demonic Tree said immediately without being polite to Gu Ning.

Gu Ning jumped down from the auditorium and came under the bloody demon tree, "Where is the entrance?"

The bloody demon tree said: "The entrance is under me. If you take a few steps forward, you will be able to see the entrance, but it is relatively narrow."

Gu Ning stepped forward and saw a hole the size of a manhole cover. The hole was so dark that it was impossible to see what was inside.

Looking at the big tree in front of him, Gu Ning was a little suspicious, "Senior, if I really take out the Demon-Drinking Knife, you won't harm me, right?"

"Hahaha, how could that be? The Grass and Tree Clan don't like killing the most." Upon hearing this, the Bloody Demonic Tree was slightly startled and laughed. The sound was deafening, the trunk swayed, and many green leaves floated down from the top, covering the ground. .

"In that case, let's go." A smile appeared on Gu Ning's lips, and he immediately jumped down towards the entrance of the cave.

Just the moment he fell, the smile disappeared and was replaced by cold murderous intent.

[Name]: Seed of the Demon Heart
[Description]: The bloody demon tree has spent thousands of years of painstaking efforts to conceive the seeds, which can take root in the host body and control the soul level. At critical moments, it can even act as the second body of the bloody demon tree.
