Chapter 30 Active Wood and the Heart of Enlightenment
The dryad's "arm" is made up of multiple branches that are twisted together. It is more than ten meters long, so it looks very thin, but it is actually as thick as a wine barrel.
Huh--
the tree demon's right arm cut through the air and pointed directly at Hua Mi.
If Hua Mi wants to control the bee swarm, she can't stay too far away.
At least it should be visible to the naked eye.
Otherwise the conscious connection will continue to weaken until it is completely broken.
"I'm afraid I'll be bruised for many days if I get whipped."
Hua Mi joked to herself, relieving her tension.
Then he concentrated his attention, controlled some of the ring-cut bees to come out of the queue, and connected them end to end to form a chain of bees and fly towards the tree demon.
"No one can stop me from collecting honey." With
a flying speed four times that of an ordinary bee, it only took a second or two to fly to the tree demon's right arm.
Then it spiraled around the dryad's right arm and reached the base of the right arm in the blink of an eye.
That is where it is connected to the trunk of the tree.
The bee chain instantly changes form and circles around to form a bee ring, smoothly increasing its speed to the highest level.
The moment the pincer teeth came into contact with the dryad's right arm, Hua Mi immediately felt that the dryad's "meat" was different from ordinary wood.
To put it simply, it is not that hard and has a bit more toughness.
However, under the sharp chain saw of the ring cutter bee, it is still as easy as cutting bread.
The dryad's right arm sank suddenly, then with a click, the entire thing broke from the root and fell to the ground, with light green sap splashing.
The dryad swayed and almost lost its balance. It took a few steps backwards on its legs before it finally stabilized.
It moved only a small part of its right arm, and the wooden face seemed a little confused. His intelligence was not enough to judge immediately what kind of attack it had just suffered.
He paused for a few seconds, then stretched out his left arm to grab Hua Mi.
Click——
The left arm also broke and fell off.
At this time, the dryad finally couldn't hold it any longer and staggered back a few steps, making an unpleasant "creeping" sound.
The tree demon who lost his arms no longer poses any threat to Hua Mi.
Next, it is just a piece of wood that can be slaughtered, no different from the ordinary immovable trees around it.
"Eat my big owl's head!"
The ring-cut bee swarm rushed towards the tree demon.
The part where the wooden face was located, which Hua Mi thought was its head, slid to the ground with a splash of green liquid.
While still in mid-air, those green eyes flickered and went out completely.
The vitality of the dryad that lost its "head" did not immediately return to zero.
There is only one key point, and that is the location of the enlightened heart.
Even if other places are damaged, they will not die and may even grow back if given enough time.
But Hua Mi obviously didn't intend to give it this time.
Next, when the tree demon lost its sight and stopped moving forward, the bee ring was controlled by Hua Mi and cut down layer by layer like a relay.
For a moment, the green liquid surged wildly, and pieces of activated wood slid down one after another.
When cutting somewhere in the middle, the tree demon's legs finally gave out, and he fell to the ground with a thud, completely lifeless.
It's just that as soon as this behemoth fell down, it killed a large piece of Yuyihua.
Hua Mi felt heartbroken when she saw it.
In the distance, Xiao Huang and Xiao Zi looked at each other with surprise on their faces.
"He did it?"
"He did it!"
"This is the first time I've seen something like this." The two little guys boasted that they had lived a long time, so they thought they had never seen anything like this before.
But now they know they were wrong.
I have never seen this scene before.
"That is to say..." Xiao Huang's eyes lit up.
"We can be here..." Xiao Zi's face was full of joy.
"It's time to collect honey!"
The two pseudo-flower spirits cheered and hugged each other happily.
Hua Mi recalled the ring-cut bee swarm, patted her forehead, composed herself, and walked towards the remains of the tree demon.
Controlling a swarm in actual combat requires concentration that cannot be compared to ordinary training.
The energy consumption would be at least two or three times greater, so although the fight just now didn't last long, it also made his spirit a little unsustainable at this time.
Hua Mi walked to the nearest piece of remains and squatted down to observe.
After receiving the enlightenment technique and developing a heart of enlightenment, the tree demon's body is no longer ordinary wood, but so-called active wood.
When you poke it, you can feel a slight elasticity - of course, it is far less elastic than animal tissue.
It can be seen from the cross section that there are some light green conduits in the active wood, which are like the blood vessel network in the human body, divided into main tubes and capillaries. The green juice is transmitted everywhere through these conduits.
The green juice exuded a faint smell of grass, and some splashed on the petals of the mandarin flower. Hua Mi watched helplessly as the liquid slowly seeped into the petals, and was finally completely absorbed into the petals.
The petals that have absorbed the green liquid appear more delicate and vital to the naked eye. Some flowers that were originally drooping also stood up.
"The green sap of the tree demon helps the growth of flowers?"
It's a pity that he didn't bring a container.
Moreover, the sap in the trunk is almost gone, and most of it has flowed into the soil, making it impossible to separate it again.
He couldn't help but think that it would be great if he could keep a tree demon in captivity, so that he could obtain green liquid at any time, which would be of great help to his planting business.
However, he has already seen the cruel and predatory nature of the tree demon, and it is basically impossible to tame it.
If you really want to obtain a continuous supply of green liquid, it is not completely impossible. You can take tougher measures.
For example, cut off the hands and feet of the dryad, and then find a way to fix it so that it can't move like an ordinary tree. Open an opening in the trunk and insert a sap collector to collect green sap continuously.
But he just thought about it casually, and the actual operation was definitely not that simple.
"You can collect these active woods and bring them back with the magic box." The
"Black Forest Adventure Guide" says that active wood is a rare kind of wood, but its specific uses are not mentioned.
"Later, cut the uncut lower part into small pieces to make it easier to carry. No matter what the use is, it's always a good idea to take it back and store it first. Maybe it will be used sometime." Hua Mi made a mental calculation
. , suddenly his attention was attracted by a piece of wood exuding a faint green light.
When I walked over and took a look, I saw that the conduits in this piece of active wood were particularly dense. The entire wood showed a light green color. There was a fist-sized luminous fluorite inlaid in the center, and all the conduits were connected to it.
"It's the heart of enlightenment!"
Two pseudo-flower spirits flew beside him at an unknown moment, and they recognized it at a glance. This was the heart of enlightenment that gave the tree demon spiritual intelligence.
"This thing must be very precious, right?"
Hua Mi was moved by the external beauty of Enlightenment Heart.
It's like a shining gem.
"After the tree demon dies, the Enlightenment Heart will gradually lose its light and turn into an ordinary stone after a while, so it has no value." "That's it.
"
That's such a pity.
I thought it was something precious.
Hua Mi took out the Heart of Enlightenment and weighed it in her hand. The density was indeed similar to that of ordinary stones.
The only difference is that it glows.
