C62 Array arrangement

"What happened to me?"

Xiao Zhi's face changed greatly. He took a step forward, but that was not his intention. Instead, his body was dominated by a surge of energy, and even his soul seemed to be occupied by the sapling, preventing him from sensing what was happening in the outside world.

However, the young tree did not have any intention for him. Although it revealed a desire to devour, it was not directed at the Xiao Zhi. At the same time, it sent out a force to protect the Xiao Zhi's soul. It seemed to be resisting this force.

The Xiao Zhi continued to move as if he was strolling leisurely in the courtyard. Although it was not fast, he was gradually closing the distance between him and the Blood Demon Tree.

"My arm!"

Xiao Zhi was shocked. His right arm was lifted up by a wave of energy as he prepared to attack. It was as if he was holding onto a blade and was about to slash at that moment.

Xiao Zhi continued to move forward, reaching the range where the Blood Demon Tree could attack. Strangely enough, all of the branches of the Blood Demon Tree shrank back, as if they were afraid of something. This confused Xiao Zhi, because even though the Blood Demon Tree could not move, as long as he could enter its attacking range, it would not be a power that he could match.

"Boom!"

The sapling exploded forth with astonishing power from the bottom of its heart, causing the Xiao Zhi's divine soul to tremble and its consciousness to go blank. As his brain rumbled, he could still feel a surge of energy flowing through his body, as though he was protecting it. Only now, Xiao Zhi's mind was blank, he did not know what was going on.

At this moment, the skeleton figure behind Xiao Zhi suddenly moved. It actually moved and merged into Xiao Zhi's body. At the same time, Xiao Zhi made a quick and unparalleled slashing motion with his right arm.

The Blood Demon Tree shook violently as its branches danced crazily. Like ten thousand arrows, it charged straight in the direction of Xiao Zhi.

"Boom!"

It was like a strong gale blowing, all the attacking branches stopped in mid-air and then slowly rebounded, swaying along with the wind.

The skeleton figure slowly withdrew from Xiao Zhi's body and stood proudly in the air.

Endless amounts of transparent blood aura formed into a bundle of blood Qi in the air and poured into Xiao Zhi's body. Then, it flowed out of Xiao Zhi's body and into the skeleton phantom's body. Immediately after, the skeleton figure disappeared into the darkness without a sound or trace.

After several breaths of time, Xiao Zhi's eyes gradually became focused, and all of his discomfort disappeared. At this moment, he was less than ten meters away from the Blood Demon Tree.

"What?!"

Surprised, Xiao Zhi reflexively retreated.

"Ka!"

A slender crack appeared on the surface of the Blood Demon Tree tree stem.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Zhi blinked his eyes. He felt that it was very strange and only after looking at it from afar did he realize that the Blood Demon Tree had already died, as if it had been dead for a very long time. The blood energy and life essence within it were all drained away.

Xiao Zhi knew nothing about what had happened in that instant.

"What happened?"

When Xiao Zhi thought about how he was unable to control his own body just now, no matter how hard he tried, he could not understand. He quickly walked to the Blood Devil Tree and confirmed that it was dead. Even the roots had no signs of life.

The crack on the tree stem seemed to have been split open by a sharp blade, almost as if it was the entire tree itself. However, because the tree stem was huge and its movements were too quick, the entire Blood Demon Tree remained in its normal state.

"So powerful, with this kind of attack method, even a cultivator at the peak of domineering state would not be able to do it."

Xiao Zhi took a deep breath and made his judgement.

"sanguinarum fructus!"

Xiao Zhi cried out in shock as he thought of the truly important thing about the Blood Demon Tree. With a leap of his body, he directly jumped onto the Blood Demon Tree. Through the dried up leaves and branches, he could see no less than ten sanguinarum fructus's remaining dried up skin.

Very quickly, Xiao Zhi saw three sanguinarum fructus s on another thick branch.

"What a coincidence!"

Xiao Zhi picked it up doubtfully. As the Blood Demon Tree itself was dead, it almost fell off the moment it was touched. There were three of them, and there were three of them.

"Who did it? My heart is not bad, I know how many to keep. "

Xiao Zhi muttered, the doubt in his heart growing stronger. He felt that the time he spent in a daze was very short. If there really was an expert appearing, then there was no reason for him to not see it. Unless they were a super expert, such as a cultivator with Dao Breaking Stage or higher.

"Bam!"

Just as Xiao Zhi jumped off the Blood Demon Tree, the kick from his feet caused the entire tree to fall down, pressing down the three corpses from before.

Zhang Ling and Wu Bupang were startled awake and immediately rushed out of the shed.

"What happened?" Wu Bupang asked first.

Zhang Ling's eyes continued to scan his surroundings, he had already grasped the Dao weapon in his hand, and was extremely cautious. After last night, no one dared to be careless in blood forest.

"…" The Xiao Zhi shrugged, he had no way to answer this question.

"Is that the sanguinarum fructus in your hand?" Seeing that there was no danger, Wu Bupang's gaze turned towards the sanguinarum fructus in Xiao Zhi's hands. He quickly moved closer to take a closer look.

"Yes." The Xiao Zhi nodded, handed one sanguinarum fructus over to him, and gave another to Zhang Ling.

"Rank 5 Blood Demon Tree!"

Zhang Ling raised his eyebrows and cried out involuntarily.

A level five Blood Demon Tree would definitely be comparable to a peak domineering state cultivator in a certain range.

"Level 5?" Isn't it level 4? "

The Xiao Zhi was puzzled, and glanced at the withered Blood Demon Tree behind him.

"Look at this."

Zhang Ling pointed to the 'sanguinarum fructus' in his hand. "Normally speaking, the Blood Demon Tree would only produce a 'sanguinarum fructus' after it reached level 4. This kind of fruit is very similar to normal flowers. The identification method is much simpler, and the main difference is the petals of a fruit. Rank 4 has four petals, and grade 5 has five, and so on and so forth, there are nine of them. However, a rank 9 beast is a legend, and is many times stronger than a Dao Sovereign among cultivators. "

Hearing this, Xiao Zhi took a closer look and sure enough, the sanguinarum fructus in his hands had five petals. In other words, the dead Blood Demon Tree belonged to the category of level five demon beasts.

As a result, Xiao Zhi could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. When he thought about how he had uncontrollably approached the Blood Demon Tree, he realized that if it wasn't for some other unforeseen event, he might not have been able to escape unscathed even if he had all three types of dao diagrams.

The fifth rank was simply too powerful.

If they could find a reference object, then a level four warthog would not be comparable to the level four Blood Demon Tree. The latter was able to slaughter a few of the former or even more than ten of them at will.

As for the fifth level, even if the thirty-eight generation disciples were present, they would still be willing to let the level go in a one on one situation. In other words, if not for that unforeseen event, the result of the Xiao Zhi's rash action would have been very tragic.

"If we had walked a little longer yesterday …"

It was only then that Wu Bupang thought of the truth, and his fat face couldn't help but lose all color in his expression from fright. If he took a few more steps, the result would be obvious.

"blood forest is more dangerous than I thought."

Zhang Ling muttered, his expression turning ugly.

"Moreover, the thirty-eight disciples will be coming in today." Wu Bupang sighed, if they were to enter, the danger would increase, and at that time, the danger would increase.

"Find a slightly quieter place. We need a temporary safe place to stay."

The Xiao Zhi said softly. He had an idea in his heart.

After that, Zhang Ling and Wu Bupang continued their cultivation for another two hours. Zhang Ling had directly consumed the 'sanguinarum fructus', his face was flushed red, and he was in a very good state. Last night, he was also the one who suffered the most serious injuries. With the support of the sanguinarum fructus, it would not be a big problem for the period of time to come.

Compared to night, traveling during the day was much easier. However, what they saw along the way terrified them. White bones could be seen in some of the shrubs. It was obvious that there was a fight going on here all the time. Unless a human cultivator reached a certain level, they would have a difficult time here.

Along the way, Xiao Zhi and the other two saw another Blood Demon Tree. It was probably only at the fourth level, but it did not dare to make any moves. Because you couldn't imagine what you would face in the next moment.

Preserving strength was the most basic method.

Very quickly, the three of them found a relatively quiet area. It was around a few kilometers deep into the blood forest. In this place, there were almost no strange existences similar to the Blood Demon Tree, nor were there any other demonic beasts.

However, this did not mean they were safe. The three of them knew clearly that there was a high possibility of a King in this area. It could intimidate the beasts in this area and make them not dare to enter.

The reason why the three of them chose this place was because they had some luck. In any case, this blood forest would encounter dangers everywhere, so he decided to just hide under this kind of huge monster. Besides, the other party might not be able to find out who they were.

The three of them were not just searching for the location, Xiao Zhi was preparing to set up a new location.

This was the first time he had set up a large scale formation after comprehending the profound mysteries of a formation.

Setting up an array wasn't something that could be done just on a flat surface. This was because the area covered by the formation was very wide. If the ground was flattened before the formation was set up, perhaps only a fool would fall for it. The first thing he had to do was to look at the terrain.

One had to know that the formation that was naturally formed had a strange power due to the unique terrain. This was why the words' formation 'were understood by those experts who had great intelligence.

The terrain here was fairly flat, with trees everywhere.

The Xiao Zhi went around it once and seriously calculated. Without destroying anything here, they had to set up a perfect formation. Regarding this, Wu Bupang and Zhang Ling were completely laymen, and could not help at all.

Xiao Zhi would occasionally walk quickly and occasionally bend over to size him up. As he walked, he constantly sent out waves of force to leave marks behind. Roughly an hour later, Xiao Zhi's forehead was already covered with sweat as he let out a long sigh of relief.

He had a rough understanding of the situation here.

The next step was to truly start setting up the formation based on the elemental energy stone. Since this was a matter of preserving his life, he couldn't be petty about it.

Seeing pieces of Middle Grade Essence Stone being thrown out by the Xiao Zhi and thrown into the ground, Wu Bupang's mouth twitched and felt pain.

The Xiao Zhi walked quickly, leaving behind afterimages as he traveled through the dense forest, forming a huge circle. This time, every time he landed, there would be a surge of energy created by the Dao energy following him and then hiding in the grass.

The White Tiger dao diagram appeared and increased Xiao Zhi's speed.

Finally, the Xiao Zhi fell into the center area. The two Superior Essence Stone in his hands were taken out by him and held in a predetermined position.

"Formation complete!"

Xiao Zhi bellowed, both his hands surging with force, wave after wave of force followed a specific route and rushed out in all directions.

"Boom!"

An energy barrier completely covered the ten metres around Xiao Zhi.
