666 The Hunting of the Strange Tree
“The Golden-scaled Guards can scout from the sky at an extremely fast speed. With the Giant Demon race’s nature, they shouldn’t be too far away. If we scout from the center of the valley, we can find their tracks in the shortest time possible.”
With the advantage of the air, it was not difficult to find someone.
“General, you’ll be in charge. I want to know where the Giant Demon race is. Especially if you can find traces of the altar,” said Li Xiang decisively.
He didn’t bring Eye Demon with him this time because he didn’t want to cause a scene. Fortunately, he still had the Golden-scaled Bird, or else he would have been in trouble.
!!
Scream!
Not long after, under Qin Ge’s lead, the Golden-scaled Birds soared into the sky one after another. They scattered in all directions, flying high into the sky to survey their surroundings.
A sea of fierce beasts, all kinds of monsters, and even the tribes of the foreign races and the villages of the Human race appeared clearly in their eyes.
The Golden-scaled Birds didn’t care about any of this. The Golden-scaled Guards that were sitting on the birds seemed to be able to share the birds’ vision. Whatever the bird saw, they can see as well. It was a wonderful feeling.
The Golden-scaled Bird’s search range was extremely wide, and they soon found the location of the Giant Demon race.
In the southeast, on top of a huge ancient tree, a tribe was established with it as the center.
From the information Qin Ge had gathered, Li Xiang had found out what he wanted.
The Giant Demon race had found an incomparably large ancient tree to live in and had established their tribe with it as the center. What kind of tree was that towering ancient tree?
It was obvious that it was not an ordinary ancient tree.
“Let’s go. We’ll go and take a look personally.”
Li Xiang didn’t want to waste any time. With the time he had to speculate, he could just go over and take a look.
He stood on the back of the golden roc and led all the Golden-scaled Guards into the sky.
High in the sky, in the direction Qin Ge pointed, it didn’t take long for them to see the towering ancient tree he had mentioned.
“What a tall tree! This tree doesn’t look simple. It even gives people an evil feeling. It looked like a Banyan Tree! Why do I feel this way?”
When Zhang Fei saw the big tree, he could not help but gasp and exclaim.
“It’s indeed a Banyan Tree, a very big Banyan Tree.” Huang Chengyan could not help but exclaim in his heart.
Li Xiang shook his head and said after looking at it carefully, “No, this isn’t a Banyan Tree. It’s only very similar to a Banyan Tree.”
Looking down from the sky, below them was an extremely huge tree. There were many towering trees in the forest, but this one was even bigger than the other trees. The other trees couldn’t get close to it at all. It was the only one in the area, so one could imagine how domineering it was.
Once it grew, it would not allow other trees to take root nearby.
The tree trunk was more than a hundred meters tall, and the crown was seventy to eighty meters wide. The twisted branches spread out, but there were no leaves. Instead, countless vines were hanging down along the branches, looking similar to the body of a Banyan Tree.
Upon closer inspection, the vines looked like hair, but each one was dozens of centimeters in diameter and covered with thorns.
The vines drooped down. There were the bones of large fierce beasts and ferocious birds at the roots. The piles of bones were a ghastly sight.
It was obvious that this was not a good place.
There was a strange flower under the plant!
This flower was extremely huge, with a diameter of ten meters. Its huge body faced the sun, and on its sunflower-like flower head, there were many tears of various sizes. As soon as these tears fell, they disappeared and spread in the air, emitting a strange fragrance. It was scattered in all directions by the wind.
“Scream!”
The Golden-scaled Birds that were flying in the sky suddenly let out a series of shrieks, as if they had an impulse to fall. This kind of impulse was like a hungry person seeing a table full of delicious food. It had an irresistible attraction.
If it wasn’t for the Golden-scaled Guards ‘control and comfort, they would have already fallen.
“Fly to a higher area.” Li Xiang immediately responded to this.
“The exotic fragrance emitted by that exotic flower should be extremely alluring to fierce beasts and ferocious birds. They will unconsciously be attracted to it. The bones under the strange tree should be the fierce beasts that were lured there,” said Li Jing with his eyes narrowed.
“It’s a strange ancient tree called the Snake Hair Tree. The hanging vines are like hair. This strange tree fed on living creatures, just like a man-eating flower. It’s extremely overbearing. Any enemy that approaches it will be strangled to death by the countless vines around it.” Li Xiang also found out the true origin of this ancient tree from Probing Skill.
This was a special type of mutated ancient tree.
Its predecessor was a Banyan Tree, but it had mutated under the stimulation of the heaven and earth vitality, turning into an extremely terrifying creature. It was very evil. Once the creatures got close, they would be attacked. The tree grew by devouring flesh and blood. To be able to grow to such a size, it must have devoured countless living beings.
Scream!
At this time, a huge ferocious bird flew across the sky in the distance. It was heading toward Li Xiang and the others. Upon closer inspection, it was a Wind Pterosaur Bird. It seemed to have felt the king’s aura from the Wind Pterosaur King. It came to pay its respects instinctively. Looking at the Wind Pterosaur King, it let out an excited roar.
Its strength was not weak. It was already a ferocious bird in the mythical realm.
The Wind Pterosaur had the Dragon race bloodline. Even though it was only weak dragon blood, it would make its path of advancement very smooth. It was not difficult for it to advance to the mythical realm.
It was just passing by and happened to sense the aura of a king from its race, so it immediately rushed over.
However, just as it flew above the Snake Hair Tree, it smelled a delicious fragrance. It looked down and subconsciously flew lower. Its gazes were fixed on the huge strange flower.
Suddenly, the Snake Hair Tree started to move.
The vines seemed to be swept up by the wind and jumped up like spiritual snakes. They rushed into the air and danced wildly.
The scene was too terrifying. In just a few seconds, the Wind Pterosaur Bird was entangled.
“Scream!”
The Wind Pterosaur Bird let out a shrill cry of fear. It had never thought that the seemingly harmless tree below would suddenly become such a terrifying hunter.
For a time, it struggled with all its might.
The shrill cry spread far and wide in the night sky. Countless fierce beasts were frightened and ran away in all directions.
Obviously, the Wind Pterosaur Bird didn’t want to sit still and wait for its death. Gusts of strong wind appeared continuously and turned into dense wind blades that cut wildly at the vines wrapping it. It was trying to cut them into pieces.
However, the strange thing was that when the wind blades landed on the vines, a layer of strange black light appeared. When the wind blades cut on the vines, they only left small cuts on them and could not cut them off.
