Chapter 422： old ghost

The night was dark, and the cave was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers. The dark soil in the cave was a little loose, and Zhang Tianwu stepped on it, and it sank slightly.

He walked forward a few feet in a familiar way, and then he reached the bottom of the cave. There were some yellow halos of light in front of the dark wall, less than a foot above the ground.

Zhang Tianwu stretched out his hand to comb his hair, took off a few green and yellow weed leaves, and then cast the spell, a ball of light in his hand was thrown out, attached to the stone wall in the cave, and the green light softly illuminated the whole cave. Bright.

An old tree that was ten feet high suddenly appeared in front of him. Its slender branches looked like dragon minions, but it didn't have a single leaf.

The old tree was only one step away from him. The bark of the old tree was as black as ink. Perhaps because of the extreme humidity in the cave, there was a thick layer of moss growing on the trunk, which looked dark green. Zhang Tianwu stretched out his hand to touch it. Take a handful, wet, with a bit of cold ice.

But on this unremarkable old tree in the cave, there are three fruits that exude dizzy golden light, and the peels are like golden scales of dragons.

Zhang Tianwu shook his hand, jumped up, and tore off a most juicy-looking golden fruit intact, and the pulled branch danced like claws. Zhang Tianwu looked at the golden fruit in his hand with satisfaction, this unknown spiritual fruit. He searched through at least a hundred herbal classics in the family's scripture library, but he couldn't find it out. He only found a few similar ones. Spirit tree spirit fruit.

Snake slough, ebony heart, dragon scale fruit... These kinds of spiritual fruits are somewhat similar to the ebony golden fruit in the cave, but Zhang Tianwu excluded them after repeated investigations.

The snake slough is the old skin of the giant snake after it transformed into a baby and survived the thunder disaster. And this snake slough happened to be attached to the dead old tree, which attracted the remaining lightning to strike it. Get angry a little bit. The snake tree has been nourished by spiritual energy for hundreds of years, and the spiritual fruit formed is called the snake slough, which is a rare health medicine, and it is also a kind of medicine for the purification of snake monsters and beasts. The superior spiritual fruit of the bloodline.

It is really rare for this snake to slough off. The growth of each snake tree means at least the death of a big snake monster in the tribulation and thunder. The old skin shed by the giant snake matches itself and it only needs to be refined a little bit to become a magic weapon connected with one's heart and blood. Therefore, as long as it is a monster snake that has successfully survived the tribulation thunder, how can it be willing to throw it away? ? Only when the demon snake perishes under the thunder, there is such a chance that a snake tree will be born, which will form a snake slough.

Ebony, whose full name is Hunhunwu, is a kind of spiritual wood that grows in the pile of bones in mass graves. It absorbs the resentment of remnant souls, and the resulting spiritual fruit has the effect of reassuring the soul and calming the mind. It is the main medicine for refining the soul pill. And the magic utensils made of ebony are extremely restrained against such nihilistic things as souls. Ordinary children in the mortal world wear an ebony card, not to mention a newly formed grievance, even a ghost will retreat three points, if there is no big enemy, it will not come within a radius of three feet.

However, the soul-hunting ebony wood heart, after three thousand years, just blindly nourishes the strange things of the soul, refines them into elixir, and makes them into magic weapons, all of which have miraculous effects.

Zhang Tianwu checked the inside and outside of the cave thoroughly, and even turned the ground three feet, but he didn't find half a bone, and he didn't find that this place was not a place where ghosts and ghosts gathered, so he put it down. Feeling relieved, at the same time ruled out the possibility that the old tree in front of him is a soul crow.

As for the dragon scale fruit, it is even more exaggerated, it needs to be a real dragon or a power close to a real dragon, weeping blood on the spirit tree, and the fruit produced, if taken alive, will turn its own blood into a dragon and have a cultivation base There is a possibility of a big rise, and there is also the danger of losing your mind and turning into a dragon beast. This kind of spiritual fruit was rare in ancient times.

In the world of cultivating immortals, the existences that can be regarded as true dragons are all great powers of the true spirit series. They are Mahayana monks. Among the powerful monks, not to mention a drop of blood, but a strand of hair, if they are obtained by the enemy, they can add spells to each other, how can they not take it to heart?

Therefore, spirit trees contaminated with the precious blood of the Mahayana series have been rare since ancient times. But now in the world of cultivating immortals, such a thin spiritual energy cannot allow this kind of spiritual wood to grow and bear fruit normally.

After Zhang Tianwu read this information from the family books, he kept it firmly in his heart.

Not long after he came to Chongling Mountain, he discovered this cave. At that time, there were nine spiritual fruits on this unknown old tree. In the past three years, including the one in his hand, he had already picked it. Got seven.

Zhang Tianwu looked at the two golden fruits still hanging on the tree. When he first took it, it took him more than half a year to fully absorb the medicinal effect of the first golden fruit.

In the days that followed, he didn't know if it was because he had taken the spiritual fruit or because his cultivation had increased, but he absorbed it faster and faster. Maybe in a month or two, the remaining two golden fruits, He will also be subdued.

With Zhang Tianwu's empty left hand, he suddenly clenched his fist, and there was a very dull sound of explosion in the cave. He clenched his fists in satisfaction, he could feel the power contained in his body, it was extremely huge, fighting tigers and leopards was just a matter of leisure. This feeling was something he had never imagined before practicing.

The aroma of the golden fruit in his right hand gradually became stronger, Zhang Tianwu was eloquent Without saying a word, he opened his mouth and took a big mouthful, the spiritual fruit in his hand was missing more than half, before he could chew it , A very feeble moan came out intermittently in this small cave suddenly.

Zhang Tianwu's back felt cold, and his neck turned stiffly. Under the green light of the stone wall, on the black bark of the old tree, an old face with vicissitudes of life appeared. Zhang Tianwu was frightened by the son, and jumped away from Zhang Yuan.

"The master of this place, since you are here, come out." The old face on the tree trunk opened and closed his lips, Zhang Tianwu heard these words.

"Tian Wu, throw away the soul puppet fruit in your hand." Zhang Shiping appeared next to Zhang Tianwu at some time, seeing only half of the golden fruit left in his hand, he suddenly understood why Zhang Tianwu's body became stronger and stronger, while Xiu But still standing still. The soul puppet fruit is not a real fruit tree, but a spiritual fruit transformed from pure soul power.

The soul puppet fruit can strengthen the monk's physical body, but its main effect is to silently change the monk's inner body, turning into a spirit puppet, making it easier to seize the body.

All of this should be caused by the fellow Taoist in front of him who lost his body and left only his soul. Zhang Shiping looked at the old tree, and at a glance he saw that this Hunhunwu was very old, the other party probably lived here for a while. He was a little puzzled, Hunhunwu needs a lot of resentment and remnants to grow, but here is as clear as a mirror, it is really strange!

While doubts arose in his heart, the pagoda in Zhang Shiping's hand ignited with black flames, turning into a black snake, coiling up the old tree. As long as the opponent made any small moves, he would burn the other's belongings on fire , also burned out the soul of the other party.

"Fellow Daoist, please be merciful. I have something to tell you. How about saving your life?" Amidst the black flames, the old man said without haste.
