Chapter 222 Meeting old friends in a foreign land

Luoluo couldn't explain it, but she did feel this breath after Su Chen smashed the tree.

Could it be that she was really wrong?
"How about you try hitting it a couple more times?"

Seeing this, Luluo asked tentatively.

Hearing this, Su Chen was a little confused. Although he felt that what Luoluo said was a little unreliable, he still hit it twice.

Green ivy instantly became excited, and looked at the tree with sparkling eyes and said, "Yes, yes, that's the feeling. Master, try to attack it with your spiritual power again."

Su Chen couldn't help but twitch his lips. He always felt that this world was absurd and terrifying.

However, he did not refuse and immediately used his spiritual power to attack the giant tree. The giant tree swayed leisurely for twice and soon returned to normal.

The leaves on the tree trembled twice, as if they were mocking Su Suchen's arrogance, or as if they were tickling him.

It was clearly just a tree, but Su Chen inexplicably felt that he deserved a beating from him.

He looked at the tree with gritted teeth.

"Strange, why is there no reaction? I clearly felt it."

Luoluo couldn't help but touch her head, puzzled. Su Chen didn't say anything either, he didn't understand what was going on either.

Suddenly, Green Ivy slapped her head in sudden realization and said excitedly, "I know! Since we could feel the master's breath when we smashed the tree just now, it means it must be a relic left by the master in his previous life. It must be a relic left by the master, so it must feel the master's spiritual power to be effective!"

"Master, try to attack with your martial spirit."

Luoluo turned around and looked at Su Chen impatiently. If she didn't have the dragon martial spirit, she would probably practice it herself the next moment.

Su Chen felt that what Luoluo said made sense, so he summoned the dragon spirit and attacked the tree.

As if he was taking revenge on the tree for its beating just now, Su Chen used all his strength this time.

"Ouch, ouch, Great Dragon Emperor, stop hitting me. I didn't mean it."

A voice suddenly appeared in the void, old and powerful, with a hint of begging for mercy.

Su Chen and Luoluo immediately looked around, but did not see anyone.

"This voice sounds so familiar."

Green radish muttered to herself, and suddenly her eyes widened, staring at the tree: "Old tree demon, is it you? Didn't you leave before? Why are you here!?"

The old tree demon was so moved that he burst into tears when he saw that someone finally recognized him. However, since he had no physical body now, one could only judge his emotions from his voice.

"Woo woo, after millions of years, I finally met someone I know. I was caught here to guard the door for millions of years."

"There's not even a living person in here. I've been counting trees every day and I'm almost sick of counting them. Even the leaves have wilted."

Green ivy subconsciously looked at the tree that was growing unusually lushly, and then saw it shaking its leaves continuously with a look of grievance on its face.

She didn't notice where it was wilting, but it shook off a lot of leaves.

"What's going on?" Luoluo couldn't help asking, "I remember you have already transformed into a human form, why don't you come to see us now?"

After saying this, the old demon tree was unusually silent. After a long while, it slightly shook its leaves. His distant sigh echoed in the sky: "It's a long story. When I left..."

Seeing that the old demon tree was about to start blabbering some useless nonsense again, Green Ivy quickly spoke up: "Speak to the point, speak to the point."

"Hate it! Hasn't it been too long since I last met a living person? You've grown up now, and you're even impatient with me talking to you. It's true that a daughter who's married off is like spilled water. My heart aches~"

The old demon tree looked angry and embarrassed, and his words were particularly girlish.

Green ivy could no longer bear it, punched the tree, and shouted: "Hey, when did I become your daughter? If you keep saying those useless words, do you believe I will pull out all your leaves?"

"Don't"

The old demon tree's huge body twisted a few times. For some reason, the two looked at the tree and felt that he was particularly scared: "Okay, let's get back to the point. When I left, I was accidentally caught by someone and became a gatekeeper spirit. That's how I look now."

These few words were spoken lightly and casually, but only Green Ivy knew how much hardship was contained therein.

The old demon tree is much older than him, and in his memory, he has always been a crazy and dramatic person.

I don't know why he left without saying goodbye. He left a letter saying he had something important to deal with. But I never expected that we would meet again in this way.

To become a gatekeeper spirit, it is easy to do if it is an unformed spirit, but most people like to take unconventional approaches. In order to have a more powerful gatekeeper spirit, they have to carve blood curses on the flesh of intelligent creatures bit by bit.

And use magic to preserve it, and finally destroy the flesh and blood, trapping his soul and achieving the purpose of control.

This kind of gatekeeper spirit is not only powerful, but also immortal. Although it retains its own consciousness, it must never betray its master, otherwise it will be doomed to eternal damnation and its soul will die suddenly, with no chance of reincarnation.

Even an ordinary evil cultivator would not do such a vicious thing. Only an extremely evil person with a vicious mind and ulterior motives would do such a thing.

Luoluo couldn't help but have tears in her eyes, thinking about how the old tree demon had gone through so much pain before his death, and now he didn't even mention it.

They are now trapped here. If they want to get out, they can only leave by trampling on the life of the old tree demon.

How can they bear to do this?

Su Chen obviously knew this. Although he was unfamiliar with this old tree demon, for some reason he couldn't bear to do such a thing.

He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "Who on earth is this person? To do such a heartless thing!"

"I can't say."

The old tree demon sighed quietly. He had been put under a restriction. Even if he had such thoughts in his mind, he would be forcibly punished, let alone saying them out loud.

"But don't be so depressed. I have lived for millions of years. What kind of scenery have I not seen? Since Hongyan left, I have been nothing more than a corpse in this world. I have lived enough."

The old tree demon's voice sounded a little old and particularly vicissitudes of life, forming a sharp contrast with what happened just now.

It is said that a long time ago, the old tree demon was not an old tree demon, but a mountain god in charge of an area. As the most promising plant, it cultivated into a human form and protected all living things in the mountains.

After that, he no longer looked like an octogenarian, and his appearance was naturally handsome.
