Chapter 490 - 490 You're the Monster (1)
490 You’re the Monster (1)
On the calm lake surface, the figures of five cultivators were reflected.
The cultivator waiting in the middle was wearing a scholarly robe and green clothes. He looked like a scholar and held a jade brush in his hand, as if he was about to draw a poem.
This cultivator was the Palace Master of the Black Tortoise Palace’s Supplies Hall, Wen Jue. He was in charge of joining forces with the four major sects to seal the Fallen God Valley.
The cultivator in the north was wearing a black robe. Only his chest and sleeves had star patterns. He looked middle-aged and had a sharp face. He had a resolute expression and belonged to an elder of the Myriad Star Sword Sect.
To the west was a cold and beautiful woman. Her white clothes fluttered in the wind, and she had fair skin and jade bones. She came from the Lotus Sword Sect, which was about the same strength as the Dian Cang Sword Sect.
The cultivator in the south looked the youngest. He looked like a young man and was dressed casually. His hair was loose and his aura was erratic. He was from the Imperial Race’s Ji Family.
To the east was Fu Yuhua. They corresponded to the representatives of the top forces in the Northern Mystic Continent.
They observed the projection from Wen Jue with different expressions.
“How did he grow so tall? How many living beings must die under the tree at the same time to be like this?”
The Ji Family elder was puzzled and looked at the other sects. “The Fallen God Valley has been sealed. Without our permission, other cultivators can’t enter at all. You haven’t allowed cultivators to enter recently, right?”
“No one from the Myriad Star Sword Sect went in.”
The elder of the Myriad Star Sword Sect, who was wearing a blue-black robe with a star pattern embroidered on his chest, denied it concisely.
“None from my Lotus Sword Sect either.”
The beautiful woman shook her head.
“Uh, I sent an elder in today to investigate the situation.”
Fu Yuhua smiled awkwardly.
“Just one?”
Wen Jue asked.
“One.”
Fu Yuhua nodded.
“Who is it? How bold.”
“Song Shi.”
“Is that him? That’s normal.”
The conversation between Fu Yuhua and Wen Jue surprised the other three cultivators. They were curious about who Song Shi was to dare to explore the Fallen God Valley alone.
Moreover, from their attitudes, they seemed to think that it was normal.
Fu Yuhua shook her head at the tree. “It shouldn’t be him. It seems that something happened in the Valley of the Fallen Gods. Could it be caused by the demons?”
“This Life-Devouring Wood doesn’t differentiate between good and evil. Could it be that the demons are willing to spend living creatures to raise this thing? The key is what’s the use of raising it?”
The Ji Family leader didn’t agree.
“It’s said that the Fallen God Valley was formed by the fall of a god. The god wanted to revive, so he devoured the surrounding life force. Could it be that they wanted to revive this god?”
Fu Yuhua teased.
“That’s just a legend. Logically speaking, if he was revived, he should have revived long ago.”
The Ji Family leader continued to object.
“It’s useless to talk about this. You still have to investigate personally. I called you over because I’m preparing to form a party to investigate this. Our array formation has already been perfected. As long as we’re not too far away, we can use the Array Formation Power to quickly escape.”
Wen Jue told them his plan.
He looked at Fu Yuhua and the beautiful woman. “Furthermore, the power inheritances of your two sides are able to restrain the devouring power here. Even if we encounter danger, we will have some ways to deal with it.”
“I have no objections. If we seal the Fallen God Valley now, it might be an opportunity to settle the big problem at hand.”
Fu Yuhua was very happy to go in and investigate. There was still a chance to save Song Shi.
After not seeing Song Shi for half a day, he guessed that the other party had encountered trouble. As for whether he was dead or not, he was not sure.
“Sure. I’ve long heard that there are many secrets hidden in the Fallen God Valley. There are also inheritances like divine powers. I’ve been curious for a long time. I wonder if I can encounter them.”
The Ji Family cultivator snickered. He came from an Emperor Clan and was rich. He had many life-saving methods and believed that his chances of survival were higher.
“Sure. If it’s safe, this Life Devouring Wood is actually beneficial to our sect’s Sword Dao cultivation.”
The beautiful woman nodded and looked at Fu Yuhua inexplicably, “It’s the same for you.”
“Hehe, my sect’s elder is inside. I definitely can’t wait to go in and investigate.”
Fu Yuhua smiled uncomfortably, as if he had a special relationship with the beautiful woman.
“I want to bring more disciples and train them.”
The silent elder of the Myriad Star Sword Sect said.
“The demons are restless. It’s naturally a good thing to bring the younger generation out to train.”
Wen Jue was quite supportive. Exploring a forbidden place like the Fallen God Valley, the more people there were, the less pressure there would be. “Go back and prepare. We’ll start in three days.”
…
Song Shi had died, so his vitality was much stronger. His special wood Stats Physique allowed him to resist the devouring power until he no longer lost his vitality.
“It’s about time.”
Song Shi left the river and walked leisurely in the forest. He was fine even if he touched the vegetation. He even wanted to devour the vitality of the vegetation.
He grabbed a leaf and activated the power of his Wood Stats Saint Body. Song Shi seemed to have transformed into a plant with tenacious vitality and began to devour the vitality in the leaf.
The tree where the leaf was located trembled. Wisps of light gathered towards Song Shi, and he really devoured it forcefully. However, the latter also had a devouring power. The two canceled each other out, and the life force that Song Shi devoured was very scarce.
“Damn it, it’s so easy for you to swallow my power. Why is it so difficult for me to swallow you?”
Song Shi was angry and slapped out.
BANG!
The tree shook, but it was not broken by the single slap.
Looking at the handprint on the tree trunk, Song Shi narrowed his eyes.
He did not even know how powerful his body was now. It was easy for him to destroy Numinous artifacts with his bare hands. He could even break Numinous treasures.
This tree’s material was actually so hard?
He slapped again and his gaze became sharp. After careful observation, he realized that the devouring power contained in the tree trunk had absorbed his attack under the powerful impact.
