Chapter 376
The Blood Sea Heart Sutra was very powerful, but there was no bonus in terms of strength. If he really faced this kind of little people who could disintegrate all spells, then he would also suffer a big loss.
“Is there any other way, brother?” Xu Zirong asked his brother humbly.
(Xu Ziyan: Hahahahaha, a scumbag becomes a master in a second! My brother’s self-confidence is back! Obviously, it’s still better to be a good student.) After a few encounters with monsters, Xu Ziyan’s confidence level dropped significantly. It’s a huge blow for his confidence with a super smart younger brother.
Xu Ziyan felt happy, yet he wasn’t showing it. However, with the presence of Mr. Blood Contract, Xu Zirong indeed felt the happiness of his brother.
(Xu Zirong: ==)
Xu Ziyan let out a smirk, staggered slightly, and pulled Mr. Little Square hard——
“Meh?” (⊙_⊙)? Xu Ziyan carried Snowball out by the horns with a dazed expression on his face.
Speaking of physical strength… what else can be rougher and thicker than dragon sons? ╮(╯▽╰)╭
Tianle was not surprised by Xu Ziyan’s actions. He knew that nascent soul cultivators could have his own independent space, but he was not proficient in space magic, so he didn’t spend much effort on it.
It’s just that when he saw the little lamb, he still felt very surprised. After all——what’s the use of getting a lamb out at this time? To roast one or what?
“You need to do this…” Xu Ziyan grabbed Snowball and whispered instructions in its ear, Snowball’s eyes lit up, and it raised its hoof in front of Xu Ziyan, signaling that there wouldn’t be any problems.
Tianle looked at the little guy curiously, and tried to poke its soft belly, but he was immediately kicked away by Snowball.
He was not discouraged, and he still tried hard, and was kicked away again and again…
Where did you get such a maniac? Snowball asked Xu Ziyan through its eyes.
Xu Ziyan turned his face silently, as this maniac really had nothing to do with him…
Snowball gave Tianle a disdainful look and thought, “as a guy with the same disease, Xu Zirong has a much stronger momentum!”
After shaking its white fluff, Snowball became energetic again. It jumped out in a diving leap. Regardless of its short legs, it disappeared into the dense grass after a few jumps.
After a while, a huge commotion broke out among the group of little people. Xu Ziyan and the others watched from a distance for a while, only to see a white fur ball rampaging around those people, knocking them down in just a short while.
The little people were enraged immediately, roaring one by one and charging towards Snowball with a long spear.
And after Snowball successfully aroused their anger, it instantly ran off without a trace.
Although these people were so short, they weren’t slow at all. They all swarmed after Snowball and disappeared soon.
Xu Ziyan and the others seized the opportunity and ran towards the big tree in a hurry, and after a while, they appeared in the primitive village.
Most of the people in the village went after Snowball, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled still behaved very cruelly when they saw Xu Ziyan and the others.
Xu Ziyan ignored their attacks, and while running, he pulled out something from Mr. Little Square and threw it vigorously——
“Puff! Puff!” Pink Hair angrily yelled at Xu Ziyan twice to express its dissatisfaction, then turned the head and hit the little man who came back first.
Gulululu…
The strength of dragon sons could never be underestimated. Although Pink Hair was small, it’s not weak at all. With a collision, those little men who came after it rolled into a ball.
“Good job!” Xu Ziyan praised. Now that there were no longer enemies, they shouldn’t wait to escape.
After passing through the small village as quickly as possible, the three of them quickly ran to the side of the giant tree.
Out of caution, they didn’t climb up the tree right away. After all, no one knew whether the tree had already some kind of wisdom. If they were tricked by this giant tree while they were climbing, things would then get really interesting.
“What should I do? Shall we go up or not?” Tianle asked nervously.
Xu Ziyan rolled his eyes at him and thought, “do you even need to ask?” The door was on the top, and they had to climb if they wanted to leave, so the question would be – how could they climb up?
He would definitely be worried about climbing the tree with his bare hands without any defense, and with those little men around, they couldn’t even hold up the spiritual power shield, let alone using any other means of defense.
Originally, Xu Ziyan’s plan was to take a closer look before deciding, but he never expected that group of ‘old, weak, sick and disabled’ people to become so vicious. If he hadn’t been smart enough to use Pink Hair for resistance, they would be the ones being chased now.
As a dragon son, Pink Hair was quite powerful, yet his ability was also significantly suppressed in front of these talented little people.
They could even decipher its ability to transform into its original form, there’s nothing else Pink Hair could do except pretending to be tough.
Pink Hair could still resist them for a while, but if this group of people started to dispatch their troops, then Xu Ziyan would be in trouble.
What they had couldn’t stop the sharp long hair and poisonous darts. Once they were hit, they would have the same fate as the group of cultivators who were dragged into the grass.
“This way.” Just when everyone was at a loss, Xu Zirong seemed to have discovered something and walked around behind the giant tree.
Xu Ziyan hurriedly chased after him, but unexpectedly, he saw an extremely shocking scene behind the giant tree.
When they looked from a distance just now, they noticed that this giant tree had lush branches and leaves, and the huge canopy covered the entire primitive village below. The branches were also full of fruits. It’s full of vitality no matter how one looked at it.
But Xu Ziyan’s always felt that this big tree contained two opposite breaths of life and death.
At first they just thought that it’s a weird tree, but they immediately discovered the secret after turning to the back of the big tree.
The front and the back were like two extremes.
While bypassing the giant tree, Xu Ziyan only felt as if he had passed through an invisible wall. After stepping through this wall, he looked at this giant tree again. They were still the same branches and shapes, but the branches and leaves were clearly withered, the bark looked extremely dry.
This dead giant tree and the one at the front seemed to be one body with two sides. The same drooping branches were full of abundant ‘fruits’. The only difference was that the big tree at the front had emerald green fruits, while the dead trees was growing human heads!
Each of these heads had ferocious expressions, and their eyes were full of pain. They were obviously dead, but these heads seemed to be still suffering endless pain.
“What kind of tree is this?” Even Tianle, a guy suffering from clinginess disease, couldn’t hold on any longer, and his face turned very pale.
Xu Zirong shook his head silently. In his two lifetimes, he had never heard of such a thing.
“Here, we can use our spiritual power.” Xu Ziyan looked at the Purple Night Divine Thunder in his palm and said with a troubled look.
Just now, he felt a cold consciousness sweeping over his body, which made him tremble with fright, and he reflexively wanted to shoot. However, that consciousness just passed by in a flash, lightning flashed in his hand, then there was no trace of that consciousness anymore.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that the special abilities of those little men seemed to be isolated by the giant tree on the back. Although the giant tree looked terrifying, they were still much safer with spiritual power than facing the one on the front side.
“Puff!” Pink Hair swooped and jumped onto Xu Zirong’s shoulder. It angrily spat at Xu Ziyan, expressing its indignation towards him.
“Haha, I’m sorry, it was an emergency just now.” Xu Ziyan glanced over there, and the group of “old, weak, sick and disabled” little people seemed to have some taboo against the big tree on the back, so they only dared to stare at them from a distance, occasionally shooting a dart instead of getting close.
Pink Hair also noticed this, so it simply gave up on its mission on procrastinating. It might as well save some energy since they weren’t coming over.
Xu Zirong lifted Pink Hair off his shoulder with a look of disgust, and stared at it coldly, “how dare you spit at my brother! You’re so brave now, huh?”
Pink Hair hummed twice, and under Xu Zirong’s lingering gaze, its movements became smaller and smaller, and it finally shrank into a pitiful ball.
Tianle walked to Xu Zirong’s side proudly, looked at the pink hair in his hand, then looked at Xu Zirong. Then, he said seriously, “cultivator Xu, your spiritual pet is so impolite. Why don’t we eat it? I happen to be a little hungry now.”
Xu Ziyan: =口=
Xu Zirong: …
“You’d better behave!” Xu Ziyan slapped Tianle’s face. As a qualified maniac, can you choose a good timing? Anyway, let’s get down to business first!
Tianle found a corner to draw circles unhappily, and kept muttering, “I’m so hungry, I’m so hungry that I have no energy left. I cannot eat that lamb, nor can I eat that rabbit. Why did you even call them out then? Did you try to piss me off on purpose?!”
Xu Ziyan:==Damn it, can this guy even get better in the future?
No matter how Xu Ziyan tried to persuade him, Tianle just continued squatting on the ground and refused to get up. He would never get up without any food!
Xu Ziyan forcefully turned his face to the side of those heads and yelled, “so you can eat while looking at these?”
Tianle blinked, then turned his face back silently, “now I can.”
Xu Ziyan thought, “I really wanna kill him! What should I do? But this guy hasn’t really offended me! He’s never successfully trapped me although he’s such a manic. Is it a bad idea to kill him like that?”
