Chapter 122 Insects with Bark
We are a tree.
The earth is our mother;
The sky is our father.
We are a tree.
We get energy from the sun;
We absorb nutrients from the soil.
We are a tree.
We are rooted on the earth;
We yearn for the blue sky and white clouds.
We are just a tree...
Recalling the nursery rhymes of the tree that he had heard when he was young, Dagen slowly opened his eyes and found himself standing quietly in a valley with a dazzling starry sky above his head.
The stars shine, making the big root feel cold.
It was the starlight from higher levels. Legend has it that in the place where the immortal tower is very high, there are all stars.
Dagen stood up, and the soft mud covered its legs, but with its strength, the mud could not stop its pace.
It stood up and stepped in a certain direction, it walked out of the valley, it left in a certain direction...
······
After hearing that the iron-eating alien insect said that the big roots disappeared, Lu Pingxi immediately said: "Don't panic, take me to the valley first."
Hearing Lu Pingxi say this, the iron-eating alien insect immediately began to lead the way. It took Lu Pingxi to a valley with large roots, but there was no trace of large roots in the valley.
Lu Pingxi observed the situation around him and then said, "No hurry, look at this pit carefully. This is not a pit formed by being dug out, but a pit formed by Dagen climbing out of the ground by itself. This at least indicates that Dagen has woken up from his coma."
The iron-eating alien insect calmed down when they heard this: "Yes, I was too anxious and didn't notice this, but where did Dagen go?"
Lu Pingxi squatted down and began to set up a formation: "Wait for me to set up a reconnaissance formation to track Dagen's traces."
Lu Pingxi is very familiar with this formation. He has arranged it many times before. This is the formation he uses to find people or objects.
A few seconds later, the formation was arranged. Lu Pingxi slapped the ground and the spiritual energy was injected into this tracking formation. The next moment, a blue tree elf drilled out from the surface of the formation.
Lu Pingxi was quite surprised: "The things summoned by this formation are different every time, it's strange."
After the blue tree elves emerged from the ground, they immediately began to run towards the southeast. Lu Pingxi and the iron-eating alien insect immediately chased after him.
They followed the tree elves and continued to move forward for a while, they arrived at the place where the Lord of the Mountains died.
The Lord of the Mountains fell in the ruins, and its corpse formed a new wooden mountain range. Their feet were full of rotting roots and vines. In the distance was the extremely huge corpse of the Lord of the Mountains. When the corpse fell there, it looked like a mountain horizontally.
When he came here, the iron-eating alien insect noticed something and its pace slowed down a little.
It was quiet around. Even if the Lord of the Mountains was dead, no animal was willing to approach here. The corpse of the Lord of the Mountains still carried an invisible pressure, which shocked the weak creatures and made them dare not approach.
In the sky, a giant eagle fell down. It turned out that the little flower demon and the others got the news, so they rushed over, and the group gathered together, and then continued to move forward under the leadership of the blue tree elves.
They passed through countless piles of rotten tree roots, they walked through countless tangled vines, and finally, they finally came to the trunk of the Lord of the Mountains, where dead branches and leaves were everywhere. The Lord of the Mountains had been dead for several months, and the leaves had already fallen and were completely squeaking. When they stepped on it, they made a creaking sound.
The blue tree elves kept moving forward and stopped after crossing a tree root dozens of meters high.
They paused, followed, and when they crossed the tree root, they saw the big root.
The big root, a huge tree stump, has its own hands and feet, and the face grows on the body.
At this moment, it was leaning against the huge body of the Lord of the Mountains with its eyes closed, looking like it was asleep. It smiled, with its hands crossed on its stomach, its legs straightened, and there was still a lot of fresh soil on it.
Big root, half body of the Lord of the Mountains, tree stump...
It no longer has the breath of life.
Where to come from and where to go in the end.
The Dagen and the Lord of the Mountains are originally one. The Lord of the Mountains is the upper part. Because it does not want to follow the traditional path, it breaks its body and abandons its lower body and leaves.
The big root is honestly following the traditional route. It takes root on the earth and grows towards the sky. However, after all, it is only the lower body. It has no crown and cannot grow leaves. It grows slowly than other tree monsters, and its IQ is lower than other tree monsters.
It is equivalent to a disability, and its wisdom is taken away by the Lord of the Mountains.
But its simplicity was also left behind by the Lord of the Mountains.
They are originally one, but at this moment, they are just returning to the origin.
The iron-eating alien insect was very uncomfortable, but it was very happy. It recalled its own tribe. It was also a powerful clan at the time, but in the end it completely died. Now it is the only one left.
This may be the immortal pagoda, this may be life.
It's so cruel!
The giant eagle empathized with this. It knew very well that it had such a day. It said: "At least, Dagen spent a happy and worry-free life, and finally died of life. Many monsters were either slaughtered or hunted, and not many people could live until they died of old age."
The iron-eating alien insects are relieved. Being able to live until old age and die is also a kind of happiness, at least for Dagen.
Su Yu asked: "What is the story of the Lord of the Mountains and Dagen? What exactly happened to them at the beginning? Perhaps no one knows all this."
The little flower demon said: "It's a pity that it's not recorded."
Lu Pingxi nodded: "I can guess some, but not many of them. They have experienced the tree birth that ordinary tree demons have never experienced. They have not been recorded. Perhaps it is a misfortune for future people, but not their misfortune... In short, we are also ready to prepare and then head to the seventh level."
The iron-eating alien insect was stunned, and it said, "Senior, my realm is only the fifth level of Qi training, I'm afraid..."
Lu Pingxi said: "It doesn't matter. You stay on the sixth level. When you reach the sixth level of Qi training, you can come up. Let's go to the seventh level first. The United Army will send people to contact you. Like other demon races, you can also cooperate with humans, which is much better than fighting alone."
The iron-eating alien insect nodded, then followed Lu Pingxi and the others to leave here. As for the big root, it was naturally left, and its destination was here, and it was reunited with its other half.
On the way, the iron-eating alien insect didn't know what it was thinking. It suddenly went to find some bark and wrapped itself with the bark. In the end, it actually disguised itself as a tree demon.
"From now on, I will be a worm covered in tree bark."
