Chapter 488 Goodbye Roots
The Bone-Eating Cave sounds like a cave, but it is actually a very tall and long abyss.
Miasma is everywhere in the abyss, and the miasma is extremely poisonous. It is difficult for ordinary monsters to survive here.
If a warrior with a slightly lower realm does not condense his spiritual armor and holds his breath, it is impossible for him to survive in the bone-eating cave for one stick of incense.
In such a harsh environment, few people come to such a certain time, but for another type of creature, this place is like a paradise - poisonous insects! That's right, poisonous insects are densely populated by bone-eating caves. At night, hundreds of millions of poisonous insects will shuttle in the abyss.
If something happens to block the way forward, within a moment, there will be only a pile of bones left.
This is also the origin of the name of the Bone Eater Cave.
Bang! A muffled sound suddenly came from under the abyss, as if a heavy object had fallen, and even the miasma at the bottom of the abyss surged.
For the poisonous insects in the Bone Eater Cave, they are very familiar with this sound.
Above the Bone-Devouring Cave is the Fuyun Sect. The disciples in the Sect often throw some warrior corpses into the Bone-Devouring Cave.
For poisonous insects, anything that can be swallowed is delicious food.
Countless poisonous insects started to move rapidly. If they crawled slowly, they would not be able to eat them.
The fastest poisonous insect crawled to see a fresh one, which opened its mouth and exposed a row of fine teeth.
Don’t look at these sharp blades that are very small but not as sharp as the first-class Xuan-level swords, which can easily bite through the fur of the demon beasts in the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However, this time, the poisonous insects' sharp teeth, which were always invincible, met their opponents.
It is obviously a human being, but it cannot be bitten.
The more poisonous insects gather, the more poisonous insects gather, and soon the human body was completely covered by poisonous insects.
The poisonous insect began to secrete a strong acid in the mouth. No matter how powerful this one is, as long as there is enough time, it will sooner or later be corroded by the strong acid.
Strong acid corrosion will cause great pain. As long as ordinary people touch a little, they will scream in pain.
But the humans, who were covered with poisonous insects, never moved at all and seemed to be dead.
I don’t know how long it took, but a small figure jumped over.
This is an eight-year-old girl with a pair of hedge braids, very cute.
She held the spirit grass in her hand and hummed children's songs. For some reason, the poisonous insects that have always been fearless will hide when they see her.
The poisonous insect that could not be avoided was stomped on by the little girl, making a sound of banging, and dark green pus and blood splattered all over the floor.
The little girl seemed to like this sound very much. She deliberately jumped into places where poisonous insects were densely packed, looking at the broken shells of poisonous insects, making a giggle.
She jumped and jumped in front of the human beings plagued by poisonous insects.
The little girl was already familiar with the scene in front of her. She wanted to bypass it, but suddenly noticed something strange.
She walked over curiously, and the poisonous insects immediately scattered.
The little girl squatted down, put her hand under the man's nose, and then touched the pulse on his neck.
The little girl said to herself.
"Strange, there is no breath and no pulse, but why is the body still warm?"
She couldn't figure it out, so she scratched her head and made a decision.
"Take it back and let your father see it."
The little girl held the man's hand and dragged him to continue jumping forward.
Strangely, the little girl was so thin that she was dragging an adult man, but she couldn't see any difficulty.
It was not until the little girl walked far away that the poisonous insects dared to gather again.
...I don't know how long it took, Chu Tian suddenly opened his eyes! He sat up and gasped desperately.
As soon as he woke up, Chu Tian immediately felt a burning pain all over his body. His skin was corroded severely by the strong acid secreted by poisonous insects, as if it had been burned by a fire.
Chu Tian subconsciously wanted to resonate with the ancestral soul tree, activate his recovery ability, and repair his injuries.
However, he soon waited for a moment, and the purple light did not flow out.
It was not until this time that Chu Tian remembered that the martial soul of the ancestral soul sacred tree had been taken away by the Buddha.
The reason why Chu Tian is still alive is that when he was captured by Futu, he performed Qigong and forcibly stopped his breathing and heartbeat.
This method can completely block his life breath for six hours. Within these six hours, he is no different from the dead.
Only when time comes can we come back to life.
The reason Chu Tian did this was because he knew that even if the martial soul of the ancestral soul sacred tree was taken away by Futu, he would not die.
He has two martial souls! Fortunately, Futu did not act carefully and destroyed his body, otherwise the only one who waited for Chu Tian would be doomed.
"You're awake!"
A tender voice rang beside Chu Tian.
Chu Tian was like a frightened bird, and immediately condensed his spiritual sword and prepared to stab him.
However, just as he took action, the master who saw the sound clearly stopped the sword force.
Next to Chu Tian, there was a little girl with a small braid.
The little girl said angrily.
"You are kind enough to save you, but you actually want to stab someone with a sword!"
The experience of being betrayed by Du Bo made Chu Tian dare not trust others easily, even if the other party seemed to be a cute little girl who was harmless.
He spoke with difficulty.
"Who are you?"
The little girl obviously didn't feel relieved and still said angrily.
"My name is Dongfang Jixiang. When I was collecting herbs three hours ago, I saw you being plagued by poisonous insects. I felt very compassionate to save you.
Humph, I didn’t expect to save a ungrateful wolf.”
Chu Tian saw a box of ointment in the little girl's hand.
He has half of his body, and it is the effect of the ointment.
Chu Tian understood that the little girl did not lie.
He took the spirit sword and stood up and saluted the little girl with difficulty.
"Thank you for helping me, I just got impulsive and apologize to you."
The little girl calmed down and pulled Chutian's arm.
"Sit down, I'll help you apply medicine to the other half of your body. I don't know what body tempering technique you have practiced. The saliva of these poisonous insects can melt even the black iron. You can last for so long."
Chu Tian sat down and let the little girl apply medicine to himself.
He closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the heavenly palace.
The slightly crowded heavenly palace, now much empty.
The Heaven-Swallowing Dragon is still there, but the Ancestral Soul Divine Tree is gone.
Chu Tian used to devour the enemy's martial soul and strengthen himself, but he never thought that one day he would be taken away by the enemy! Just as his anger was burning in his heart, he suddenly discovered that there was a faint light at the original location of the Ancestral Soul Divine Tree.
If you look closely, it is a piece of tree root.
Chu Tian's heart trembled. When he left Tianlan Empire, Ling'er secretly injected a soul power into his Heavenly Palace when he said goodbye to him.
This soul power turned into a piece of tree root and merged with the ancestor soul divine tree, and now it appears again.
Chu Tian was so shocked that he murmured to himself in his heart.
