Chapter 279: Stick It Out

There was more than one place on this island. The environment here was actually so generous. Since they had raised such a fat Three Blue Grass, he might as well stick it out and find more of them. In the end, he found five.

A top-notch refining material like the Three Blue Grass could be sold for thousands of high-grade spirit stones in the outside world.

This was already a very top-notch price for a refining material. Li Yuanqing easily obtained five.

After checking the island again, Li Yuanqing looked towards the central area. He felt that something was calling him to approach.

This place seemed to be called the Black Yin Spring.

Although he did not know why it was called this, Li Yuanqing only knew that the resources here were too fertile. He did not want to leave and wanted to stay here forever. If he used these plants to refine pills, there would be countless spiritual pills and elixirs for him to use. He would not be able to finish them even if he ate them until the end of time.

Suddenly, a very bright light source swam past his feet. He looked down and quickly reached out to grab the little fellow. It formed a small spring in his palm and raised the little fellow. After putting it up, it twisted its body forcefully. It was actually a little jellyfish.

The guys outside were as black as ink and could not tolerate the existence of other colors.

However, here, these fellows all looked colorful. There was even light that was enough to illuminate the entire grassland.

All of it was fascinating. For someone who had just arrived, everything that happened here seemed to have some kind of magic that drew him forward, exploring step by step to the deepest part of the virgin land that had yet to be explored.

Li Yuanqing placed the little jellyfish in the water. The little jellyfish panicked and left in a panic. He looked at the dazzling light inside. He took a step forward without hesitation and arrived at another island almost instantly.

However, he did not stop this time. He wanted to reach the center as soon as possible. He wanted to see the middle of the vast grassland.

What was it? What was it that was supporting the entire grassland to become a forbidden area for humans? What was it that was supporting so many natural treasures? What was it that kept attracting him to walk forward step by step?

Li Yuanqing seemed to be possessed as he walked forward. He did not walk quickly, but he was very determined. He did not even know when a cluster of red vines grew under his feet.

Suddenly, Li Yuanqing seemed to be stepping on the shoes woven from the red vines and floated forward. Behind him, the blood vine kept extending, leaving a long tail behind. It spread in the lake, as if it was greedily absorbing some magical power in the lake.

At this moment, Li Yuanqing finally felt that the back of his body was completely covered by the Blood Vine, forming a thick armor. The blood vine came out of his cloak, but no one tried to attack him.

As soon as Li Yuanqing stopped, countless red vines poked into the lake. One could clearly see these red vines sucking the lake water greedily like necks.

Ripples ran up the neck like loops, slowly moving upward until they poured into the roots of the blood vine.

Although he did not know why the Blood Vine had such a change, Li Yuanqing did not interrupt him. The Blood Vine had been silent for so long. Li Yuanqing was still wondering when this fellow would wake up. Moreover, this fellow knew the entire continent very well. Perhaps the Blood Vine could give him an answer.

Li Yuanqing returned to the domain and looked at the Blood Vine that had already grown vigorously in the domain. However, there were still no signs of the Blood Vine waking up. Although it was getting fatter and fatter, it still looked completely the same. It was unknown when it would wake up. Perhaps this Blood Vine was just a Blood Vine and not the previous fellow. He could not be sure.

Li Yuanqing suddenly felt a little lonely. Was that human senior going to be reduced to ashes just like that?

Although he did not know the outcome, as long as there was still a little hope, Li Yuanqing was still unwilling to give up on the Blood Vine.

After absorbing enough lake water, the Blood Vine slowly retracted his roots and retracted them beside the big tree. However, his body had become much thicker than before, as if these two towering trees were no longer enough for him.

Li Yuanqing had already left the island, leaving behind a group of surprised demon beasts that strolled around the island. They seemed to have sensed a strange aura here just now, but they were not too sure. However, after coming, they could not feel anything.

Moreover, they kept feeling that there seemed to be a human’s aura moving above their heads. However, it disappeared after they approached. They kept feeling that it was unreal. No one knew what went wrong.

These demon beasts looked at each other, but they could not understand. In the end, they simply dispersed.

Just like that, Li Yuanqing walked forward step by step. He crossed islands of various sizes and finally arrived at the largest island in the core area.

From the outside, he could not see this island, but after arriving at the border, he realized that among the many islands, there was actually such a wide island. This island could really be called a small island. It was about ten miles in diameter. It was lush and filled with all kinds of plants.

The island was very quiet now. There was no movement. The dirty demons did not taint the environment here.

Li Yuanqing’s foot stepped onto the island.

The land on the island was very soft. It could not be said to be tough. If one stepped on it, they would feel like they had sunk in a little. However, after someone left, the sunken place would bounce back. It was very magical.

There were the most trees on the island in the center. As far as the eye could see, they were all tall and short trees. However, these trees all looked strange. They were covered in colorful light patterns.

It was as if someone had played a prank and smeared some paint on the tree. Irregular color spots covered the trunks of these grayish-white trees, looking a little strange. This very bright color made one feel so happy, but this bright color made one subconsciously feel a little dangerous.

This confusion that was filled with madness and hidden danger felt like it was going to fool everyone’s reaction mechanism. No one knew what kind of situation they would face here.

Li Yuanqing kept feeling that something was calling him from the center of the island. He felt the calling in his heart and walked into the trees. However, when he approached, he looked up and seemed to see those strange-looking trees twisting their waists. Their distorted and huge faces revealed a ghostly smile.

If he looked steadily with his eyes, he would clearly not be able to see anything. Those things looked ordinary, but when the breeze blew, they would slowly twist their bodies. However, when his eyes did not land on them, he felt that something was doing some strange actions there. It was like a clown doing ridiculous and comical actions.

Li Yuanqing walked closer and closer. When he looked at the different colors again, they looked more and more like strange faces. The more he walked into the forest, the more he felt like he was surrounded by a group of smiling faces. He felt like there were countless mouths sneering behind him. However, every time he turned around or looked in any direction, he could only see the trees with color spots.

Now, he was already in the midst of these colorful trees and was deep in the confusing and colorful forest. He could not find a way out at all. He could only walk forward firmly, following the direction of his desire, hoping to find the answer he wanted.

The further he walked, the deeper he went into the forest. At this moment, he was completely trapped in the deep colorful forest.

In his mind, there were always waves of laughter. The laughter was so funny, and it made him want to laugh with them.

Just as Li Yuanqing was walking forward step by step, suddenly, more than ten branches that were originally harmless on the top of the colorful tree left their original positions and slowly stretched towards Li Yuanqing’s body.

The branches of these trees suddenly became as agile as vines. They twisted in midair, searching for a very winding pattern and twisting behind Li Yuanqing.

Just as they were about to touch Li Yuanqing’s back, the branches of these trees suddenly revealed their true colors. They took off their colorful clothes and revealed their dark and deep bodies. Moreover, a crack appeared in the middle of their round bodies. There were two rows of teeth hidden in the crack.

They stretched out the two rows of vicious teeth perfectly and bit towards Li Yuanqing’s back heavily.

These dozen or so branches surrounded Li Yuanqing in the middle, as if they wanted to swallow him just like that, not giving him any chance to discuss. This powerful pressure made people unable to breathe.

At this moment, golden light shone behind Li Yuanqing. Thousands of white sword energies suddenly flew out. These sword energies were like a shield that protected Li Yuanqing in the middle and exploded.

There seemed to be waves of wailing in the forest. Li Yuanqing looked behind him. The trees were still standing quietly, but their broken branches were clearly telling Li Yuanqing that these guys wanted to kill him just now.

Black liquid landed on the ground where those broken branches were and was absorbed by the soil.

Li Yuanqing pulled out his sword and stabbed at a tree beside him. His move was not especially fast, as if he was waiting for something. As expected, when his sword was about to reach the tree trunk, the tree suddenly rose more than two meters. It looked like this guy had stretched out his long legs and missed Li Yuanqing’s sword.

These things were still pretending just now. Now that its life was at stake, it could no longer pretend so much. It was directly exposed.

These were actually tree demons.

“Demon, how long are you going to hide?”

It seemed to have just fallen into Li Yuanqing’s trap. A smile appeared on Li Yuanqing’s lips. He suddenly raised his sword and slashed out a beautiful sword energy, splitting the towering tree with a diameter of one meter into two.

Black liquid erupted from the middle of the tree and landed on the shield outside Li Yuanqing’s body, corroding it until it emitted green smoke. This thing looked so colorful and harmless, but the venom in its body could corrode a Spirit Transformation Realm expert until nothing was left.

Seeing that one of their brothers had been killed, the other tree demons stopped pretending. They uprooted all the trees in the forest and stood up like humans. They stood on two thickest roots and waved their heads, countless branches attacking Li Yuanqing.

There were all kinds of weapons wrapped around those branches, including many Dharma artifacts with abundant spiritual energy, like their spoils of war.

Li Yuanqing blocked and sent a spear flying. The spear flew into the sky with a strong buzzing sound and was about to land outside the island.

These large numbers kept approaching Li Yuanqing. They attacked one after another, wanting to kill him here.

These guys were considered powerful. All of them had strength comparable to the Formation Arrangement Realm, and there were so many of them. However, they were not worth mentioning in front of Li Yuanqing. Li Yuanqing slashed one of them down with his sword, making it difficult for them to approach.

However, the problem was that after these trees died, a lot of black liquid would flow out of their bodies. These black liquids gradually drowned Li Yuanqing. Looking at the shield beside him that was corroded so badly and the loss of spiritual energy in his body, he knew that he would not be able to withstand it if this continued.
