The moment the crack appeared.

The tall and burly Meng Que stepped into the crack with four gauntlets and disappeared without a trace.

The girl Lin Ying followed closely behind.

Cheng Tianhao signaled everyone with his eyes.

Followed into the crack.

The moment he entered the crack, a ray of light swept over. After touching Xiao Shi's body, Xiao Shi immediately felt a huge suction force, and his body flew towards this ray of light uncontrollably.

It doesn't look like much from the outside.

But now I feel it personally, as if it is a vast sea of ​​light.

Under this suction.

quickly.

At the end of Guanghai, it was a huge and incomparably sphere.

And such spheres, if you look around, there are many.

Xiao Shi vaguely saw that other people, like himself, appeared outside different spheres, and were quickly swallowed by these spheres.

Xiao Shi's eyes flashed.

When everything became clear, he found himself in a strange world.

The sky here is dark green.

Like a vast and huge leaf, it has become the sky of this world.

The ground is still thick and indescribably thick tree roots.

It's just that I don't have the feeling of standing on the giant beast before, and the pressure is much less.

At this point they have entered the interior of the ancient tree.

It's just that other than the five of them, I didn't see anyone else here.

It seems that after other people enter here, the positions they appear in are different from theirs.

Cheng Tianhao closed his eyes.

Start to feel the rules here.

Their five sequence contenders, after entering here, can perceive the rules.

Soon he understood the rules here.

The whole person is thoughtful.

"Brother Nie."

He turned to look at Xiao Shi.

"According to the previous promise, I will give you the shadow seed first..."

According to the conditions he promised Xiao Shi.

When entering the interior of the ancient tree, he will first hand over the Shadow Seed to Xiao Shi.

While talking.

A black bead appeared in Cheng Tianhao's hand.

The whole bead is only the size of a fingernail.

The whole body is pitch black.

There was a faint gleam of luster.

It is the shadow seed!

The moment Cheng Tianhao took out this shadow seed.

The several gauntlets around him all focused their eyes on this bead, their eyes were extremely hot.

For shadow species…

All of them have an extremely strong desire.

It's just that it is extremely difficult to form a shadow seed.

Not to mention the entire Tree Shadow City, even the entire Swift Shadow Palace, there are not many people who can form a shadow seed.

Usually, the value of the Enlightenment Talisman, which can perceive the shadow species alone, is already extremely astonishing.

Not to mention the Shadow Seed itself.

They were all extremely envious of Xiao Shi being able to obtain a Shadow Seed directly from Cheng Tianhao.

Although they are also at the top of each list in Tree Shadow City.

But where they are on the list.

Its value and significance are far inferior to Xiao Shi's tree spirit killing list.

Naturally, it is impossible to obtain such treatment.

Xiao Shi took over the Shadow Seed from Cheng Tianhao.

Although he also knows the shocking value of the shadow species.

But his understanding of shadow species is always limited.

Do not know the specific usage.

at this time.

Cheng Tianhao took out a jade slip again.

And handed over this jade slip together to Xiao Shi.

Among the jade slips, there is a detailed introduction about the shadow species.

Shadow Seed is a powerful ability unique to the Shadow Palace.

Although there are many ways to form shadow species.

But the most hopeful of success still has to practice the designated exercises of the Swift Shadow Palace.

As for the formation of the shadow seed, in addition to being able to use it for yourself, you can also choose to give the shadow seed to others as a gift.

It's just that there are not many people who have always done this.

Because most people who form shadow-seeds can only form shadow-seeds once in their lifetime.

People who can form more than two times are extremely rare.

This has also led to many people who are eager for shadow-seeds. Even if they want to exchange treasures of the same value for shadow-seeds, it is difficult to exchange them.

Now according to the information in the jade slip.

The key to mastering this Shadow Seed lies mainly in refining.

Through a special refining method.

Making it a part of the body is like turning it into an organ inside the body.

Just in the jade slips, such a refining method is recorded.

This also made Xiao Shi realize...

This jade slip itself obviously has a good value.

After all, this refining method cannot be obtained casually.

Xiao Shidang even followed this refining method.

Refining the shadow seed in the opponent's hand.

Under his refinement.

The entire shadow-seed turned into fine shards of light and submerged into his body. While becoming a part of his body, a shadow also appeared behind Xiao Shi.

It's just the shadow that appears.

Not his own shadow.

but a...

The shadow of the tree!

However, judging from the size of the tree shadow, it seemed to be just a small sapling.

Xiao Shi looked at the tree shadow on the ground strangely.

It feels like this tree shadow is like one's own hands and feet, which can be controlled by one's own thoughts.

At the same time, this tree shadow seems to be able to inherit all of its own power.

If it is used for combat...

In a way, it's like the two of them shot together!

And most importantly...

The entire tree shadow will continue to grow!

The tree shadow formed by Xiao Shi today is only in the initial stage, and belongs to the weakest period.

It will continue to grow stronger as it grows.

"Usually, people with tree shadows will not have much difference in the initial stage."

"But with the cultivation of the tree shadow, there will be many different development routes."

"For example, some people will cultivate the shadow of the tree towards the **** class, so that the entire shadow of the tree will have a strong **** ability."

"Some people will focus on strengthening the piercing sharpness of the tree shadow, so as to make the tree shadow an unstoppable killing blade!"

"There are also people who will cultivate the protection of the tree shadow, which is used to resist some powerful and deadly attacks at critical moments."

"There are still people who will cultivate the vitality of the tree shadow. When cultivated to a certain extent, they can even give themselves a second life!"

"Different training policies will have different routes."

"You can choose a route that suits you to cultivate."

Cheng Tianhao patiently explained to Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi nodded.

This is also the reason why Shadow Seed is desired by countless people.

It has a very strong growth potential.

And it can be cultivated in different directions according to its own needs.

But now is not the time to think about the direction of training.

Xiao Shi looked at Cheng Tianhao.

"So, what are the rules here?"

Although these gauntlets cannot perceive the rules.

But through Cheng Tianhao's performance, Xiao Shi has realized that the rules here must use him.

According to Cheng Tianhao's original plan.

It should only give shadow seeds to oneself.

But no jade slip will be given.

After all, the jade slips themselves are also of great value.

The reason why he gave out all the jade slips in such a grand manner is obviously because he will need to use him next.

So give the benefits up front.

"Inside this ancient tree, there are different checkpoints, and there is an important thing in each checkpoint."

"Now this is the first checkpoint."

"Although the rules do not require us to pass every level, we can also choose to give up the level and leave directly. But if we give up, we will not be able to obtain the important things in the level."

"In this way, when it comes time to finally compete for the ancient tree crystallization, you will be at a huge disadvantage."

Cheng Tianhao said solemnly to everyone.

"In other words, every level here is actually a process of accumulating advantages. The more levels we pass, the greater our advantage will be when we finally compete for the ancient tree crystal?"

one of the gauntlets asked.

"good!"

Cheng Tianhao nodded.

"So when we arrive at the core place where we finally compete for the crystallization of ancient trees, we must pass every level as much as possible and obtain the important things in each level, so as to maximize our advantages."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

There is not much difference in strength between these five teams.

If they fight and kill each other as soon as they come up.

It's hard to say which team will win.

In the case that every team needs to go through these checkpoints, it depends on which team has cleared more checkpoints and obtained the most important things. In the final stage, it will have the greatest advantage.

"Then this first level..."

Everyone looked at Cheng Tianhao.

Cheng Tianhao looked at Xiao Shi.

"The first level may depend on Brother Nie."

Following Cheng Tianhao's words.

In front of everyone, many tree spirits suddenly appeared.

These tree spirits include both weak tree spirits comparable to those who have just entered the Qi martial arts realm, and there are also powerful tree spirits comparable to the late Qi martial arts realm.

"In the first level, you need to kill these one hundred tree spirits!"

Cheng Tianhao said.

Everyone was taken aback by this.

With their strength, it is more than enough to kill these tree spirits, and there is no difficulty.

But the problem is...

After killing these tree spirits, they will all be eroded by the breath of the tree spirits, thus weakening their own cultivation.

if it is serious.

At that time, all of their qi martial arts will be fully weakened to the late stage of qi martial arts.

This has a huge impact on their entire team.

for a while.

Everyone turned their attention to Xiao Shi.

Only then did I understand why Cheng Tianhao said that he needed to rely on Xiao Shi for the first pass.

Xiao Shi is at the top of the tree spirit killing list.

It has already been eroded by the breath of the tree spirit.

Even if more tree spirits were killed, it would not have much impact on him.

If Xiao Shi can kill these tree spirits to pass the level...

It is undoubtedly the most favorable situation for their team.

Xiao Shi was not surprised by this.

From Cheng Tianhao's actions before, he has already realized that the other party needs him.

in this case.

It's hard for him to say no.

After all, they are short-handed.

Although the shadow seed was the reward that the other party had promised early on, it did not include the jade slips for refining the shadow seed.

Besides, as Cheng Tianhao's gauntlet, he is also responsible for assisting him to pass the customs.

Emotionally and rationally, he couldn't refuse.

"Leave the first level to me."

Xiao Shi agreed.

Anyway, this is not difficult for him, but after killing these tree spirits, he can also get the items that these tree spirits drop after death.

"Thank you brother Nie!"

Cheng Tianhao said gratefully.

The hearts of the rest of the people are also quite balanced.

Before, they were somewhat unbalanced about Xiao Shi being able to get such good treatment from Cheng Tianhao.

Now after seeing the situation at this level.

I feel that Xiao Shi deserves such treatment.

After all, when faced with such a difficult problem, Xiao Shi would come forward to solve the problem.

At the same time, they all thought of a situation in their hearts.

"Are the levels faced by other teams the same as ours?"

"If it's consistent..."

"Then how will they pass this level?"

They have Xiao Shi, the leader of the tree spirit killing list, who can deal with these tree spirits for them.

There is no such person as Xiao Shi in other teams.

If they want to forcefully pass this level, they will have to face the erosion of the tree spirit's breath, which will lead to a decline in strength.

Once the Qi Wujing of other teams has reached a complete level, it will become the late Qi Wujing...

That would be very beneficial to them.

This also made everyone feel Xiao Shi's great role in the team again.

Just let them pass the first level without loss.

"Then, this level is up to Brother Nie."

Cheng Tianhao thanked Xiao Shi again.

Considering the speed of customs clearance, Cheng Tianhao decided to take the others to the next level.

That way they might be able to quickly pass two levels.

After all, even if they stay here, they are just watching Xiao Shi's performance, which is of little significance.

Simply go to the next level first.

If they can clear the first two levels at the same time as Xiao Shi, their progress will be much faster~lightnovelpub.net~ Xiao Shi nodded.

He is also happy to do so.

If these people were all there, it would be inconvenient for him to pick up the dropped items after killing the tree spirit.

Immediately.

Cheng Tianhao and the others quickly rushed to the next checkpoint.

Since there are no rules that must be passed in these levels.

Therefore, there is no restriction that one level must be passed before proceeding to the next level.

I can leave whenever I want.

Wait until everyone leaves.

Xiao Shi's eyes.

It also condensed on the many tree spirits in front.

At the same time, he looked down at the shadow of the tree below him.

"So…"

"Try the power of the tree shadow first."

Xiao Shi thought about it.

The black tree shadow under him immediately moved.

The entire tree shadow quickly extended and became longer, and the branches of the tree shadow seemed to turn into a black tentacle before spreading to a tree spirit.

Swish!

The entire branch immediately covered the tree spirit.

in an instant.

The whole tree spirit let out a shrill scream.

Its body seemed to be bombarded by some powerful force.

Without a sound, most of it was erased!

This made Xiao Shi's eyes shrink slightly.

I didn't expect the combination of Taiyin energy and tree shadow to have such an effect!

"If you use this to carry out a sneak attack...ordinary people may be extremely difficult to detect!"

Xiao Shi's heart moved slightly.

Especially in the dark.

The tree shadow itself is extremely difficult to detect.

Coupled with the cover of the sun...

It will definitely have an excellent effect.

"But in terms of killing power, we still need to try."

Xiao Shi looked at a tree spirit in the distance who was comparable to the late Qi Wujing.

Manipulate the shadow of the tree, diffuse and extend to the past.
