Chapter 604 Myth(2/4)

Including directly killing himself, this possible threat!

This is the old man!

People who are already old and half-footed in the coffin will sell everything in order to survive and to be healthy!

But it is precisely because of this that Cruy's determination is extremely firm!

Because he knows that as long as he succeeds.

Then, the old men will also crawl at his feet.

The entire Blue Star will become his private confinement.

From now on, no one can stop him.

He can do whatever he wants.

He can mobilize all the power and resources of the entire planet to serve him.

"Immortal?" Cruy turned his head and looked at the car behind him.

"Then let's take a look. Are the 'immortals' from the East more powerful, or the 'saints' who have been gifted by 'gods' and have the power given by 'gods'?"

Baldwin IV has a title: Saint.

This is both a symbol of his status and an explanation of the source of his strength.



Xu Ji passed through a river bend with rugged rocks, and the canyon where the Naga ghost tree came into view.

Xu Ji quietly lurked into a bush and looked into the canyon.

It's not obvious from a helicopter during the day.

Now that we have a closer look, the weirdness and gloominess of this canyon are fully exposed.

Xu Ji's eyes were slowly filled with golden sun flames.

Under the eyes of Dharma, everything in this canyon is exposed.

From Xu Ji's perspective, this seemingly calm and quiet canyon, with only a hundred zombie-like corpses wandering under the Naga ghost tree, is actually extremely noisy.

Thousands of 'ghosts' were constantly shuttling around the ghost tree.

These 'ghosts' are very, very small.

It was only about twice the size of the suspected 'demon larvae' that Xu Ji pulled out from Li Xiaofeng's body in the morning.

It can be clearly seen that these 'ghosts' are regularly rotating around the trunk of the ghost tree.

Soon Xu Ji discovered why these 'ghosts' were spinning like this?

Because, the leaves of this 'Naga Ghost Tree' seem to be secreting a milky white liquid.

As soon as these liquids are secreted, they immediately vaporize and turn into a little bit of milky white debris.

The 'ghosts' are like fish, fighting for these scraps.

"So..." Xu Ji thought: "This 'Naga Ghost Tree' is actually a donor?"

He quietly took out the bottle containing the 'demon larvae' extracted from Li Xiaofeng's body from his pocket.

He tried to carefully open a corner of the bottle cap.

The sealed cub immediately reacted violently.

It seems to be extremely eager to get close to the ghost tree!

Just like a starving child who wants his mother's milk!

Xu Ji immediately capped the bottle, and the cub in the bottle calmed down.

"So, it shouldn't be called a ghost tree!" Xu Ji stared at the towering giant tree: "It should be a mother tree!"

"The mother tree that nurtures monsters and gives birth to monsters!"

He remembered the introduction in Guiling's information.

According to research and analysis from Blue Star countries, demons and ghosts generally appear irregularly.

However, in areas with ghost trees and their vicinity, the probability of ghosts appearing is much higher than in places without ghost trees!

Therefore, all countries take strict precautions against the ghost trees within their borders.

Found and destroyed!

However, many big countries not only do not eliminate the ghost trees growing outside their own borders, but also obstruct organizations or people who want to eradicate these ghost trees.

They even repeatedly threatened with sanctions.

This is also the reason why this Naga ghost tree can survive to this day.

Weak Siam and Khmer did not dare to take the risk of being sanctioned, so they invited forces from the Central Plains to help them deal with this ghost tree.

But why is the probability of ghosts appearing around the ghost tree greatly increased?

People are undecided.

Because there is no evidence at all!

Now, Xu Ji knows that the little monsters and ghosts may have grown up relying on the nourishment of the ghost tree.

But the question is: What did the little monster evolve from?

This secret may also be hidden in the ghost tree.

Xu Ji turned his gaze and looked under the tree canopy.

He saw a more spectacular sight than on the helicopter during the day!

Countless mycelium sprouted from the soil around the ghost tree.

Just like a coral, it opens its thin snout to accept the debris falling from the tree crown that has not been eaten by the little monsters.

Seeing this, Xu Ji had a question in his mind: "Where does the milky white liquid secreted by the leaves come from?"

Blue Star is a material world.

Although demons and ghosts do not need to obey any physical laws.

But there is one thing they should not be able to defy: conservation of energy!

In other words, there must be some kind of energy source that can allow this ghost tree to continuously obtain nutrients.

So, here comes the problem.

What does the ghost tree feed on?

Xu Ji remembered some of the research on demons and ghosts that Guiling had given him.

According to research, demons and ghosts mainly feed on humans.

Humans seem to be a great complement to them.

However, what they eat is not flesh and blood in the physical sense.

According to research, most victims of ghost attacks usually remain physically intact.

In only a few cases, there is evidence that the victim's body was eaten.

According to research, most of the demons encountered by the victims in these cases were in human form.

According to speculation, they only eat the flesh and blood of their victims, mostly to maintain their parasitic bodies.

Therefore, experts have long suspected that demons feed on human souls!

However, no one can find evidence of the existence of the soul.

This speculation can only be speculation.

"So, does the ghost tree also feed on human souls?" Xu Ji thought.

But the problem is that ghost trees are basically immobile.

Just like this Naga ghost tree in this canyon, it has basically not moved in 20 years.

Its impact and coverage are also limited.

How to hunt a ghost tree that cannot be moved?

"It is estimated that only if the old immortal comes, knocks down this ghost tree, and digs out its roots, can this secret be known!" Xu Ji said softly.

The ground part of the ghost tree is just a growth. Even if it is blown to pieces or burned, it can take as little as a month or as long as a year for an identical ghost tree to grow in its place.

Its real core and main body are hundreds of meters underground.

This was discovered after various countries bombed demons and ghosts. It is also the rare knowledge that Blue Star humans have about ghost trees so far.

When Xu Ji said this, suddenly, there was movement at the entrance on the other side of the canyon.

Xu Ji immediately looked over and saw two ragged figures walking in slowly, dragging several corpses dullly.

Xu Ji could tell the difference with just one glance.
