C510 Strange Leaves
The Little Demon Empress' departure hurt Lei Yang a little, as if the one that left was not a mount, but a brother.
A while later, Lei Yang suddenly raised his head and recovered from the state of loss. This time, he was facing the majestic World Tree in front of him.
He was only three thousand meters away from the World Tree. Because of the Little Demoness' matter, he did not have the time to look at the majestic World Tree closely, and now that he looked at it, the shock and shock that the tree gave him could be considered as real.
The tree was too large and its branches were lush and full of leaves. Its entire body was covered by dense leaves that were as big as a roof. Standing there, one could not even see the top of the tree ?
Aside from some areas on the outside of the tree, which were as thick as mountain peaks and covered with huge branches, the rest of the area could not tell what was going on inside the tree.
Therefore, Lei Yang was simply unable to determine just how big the trunk of this tree was, because he simply could not see any number of branches here.
The giant leaves covering the tree were arranged neatly on the outermost layer of the tree. They still gave off a metallic feeling when people looked at them, giving off a rather hard feeling. Therefore, it was inevitable that some people would feel that they were looking at a mountain, a giant black iron mountain.
There were still countless cultivators flying towards the World Tree, but what was strange was that there were no cultivators around the World Tree. It was as if they had entered the tree's vicinity.
"It seems that there is another mystery behind the tree!" Lei Yang immediately found some clues, he waved his hand, and was about to say something, but before he could do so, the thousand plus cultivators around him suddenly moved.
In the blink of an eye, all of them had formed into a neat phalanx behind Lei Yang.
Lei Yang was stunned for a moment, then turned around to take a look. In his heart, he immediately felt a strong sense of support and absolute confidence.
In the past, everyone had been sitting loosely on the back of the dragon. They had never lined up like an army before, but now, as soon as the lesser demons left, they had taken on the appearance of an army for the first time. This proved that this army was very malleable.
"Alright!" Because of the Little Demon Empress' departure, Lei Yang had initially felt rather disappointed, but at this moment, he suddenly gained a heroic air.
"Alright, there's nothing more to say. Brothers, come, follow me!" Lei Yang waved his hands, bringing along his brother Heavenly Legion, as he walked down the World Tree with a domineering aura.
Thousands of kilometers might not be far, and it wasn't too close, but to cultivators, this distance was just a flick of a finger.
Very quickly, Lei Yang led his group of brothers forward, and watched as a cultivator parted the large leaves and entered the bottom of the large tree. After observing for a while, Lei Yang and the rest, followed Lei Yang, and entered as well.
The base of the World Tree was completely covered by leaves that were like rooftops, blocking out all the light. Even though the group had used their full eyesight, it still took them a long time to get used to it.
From what he could tell, this was the outermost part of the World Tree, and he could not see the tree trunk in front of him.
It grew huge and thick branches above the heads of Lei Yang and the others, and on the branches grew many fine branches, then, layer by layer, they became smaller and smaller. And at the end of the smallest branches were pieces of upside-down leaves.
However, the leaves here were very different from the large outer layer of leaves. Looking at them made one feel amazed, and there was even some fear rising from the bottom of one's heart.
The leaves here were very special. They were shaped like long swords, big blades, and long spears. They formed all sorts of weapons.
Lei Yang looked carefully, among them were blades, spears, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks, forks and other weapons, all of them complete.
Lei Yang extended his hand to fiddle with it, and felt that these leaves were still heavy, they were also similar in weight to weapons, but he tried to pull off a piece of leaves that resembled a weapon, but was unable to do so.
Even with his physical strength, he was unable to pull off a weapon like leaf. At the same time, he also had a feeling that once a leaf was pulled off, the countless leaves on the tree would instantly pierce towards him, causing him to feel a strong sense of danger.
"This is simply too strange," Lei Yang muttered in his heart, and quickly let go of his hand, causing the leaf to sway slightly, and it immediately collided with the surrounding leaves, producing a sound of metal colliding with metal.
At this time, Yan Guixing and the others who were behind Lei Yang also felt extremely astonished at the scene before them. Although they had seen many surprises along the way in the middle boundary of cauldron, this was the first time they had ever seen an existence that was similar to a leaf weapon.
Zhang Qing was even more surprised: "Oh my god, how can there be leaves that can create the shape of a weapon? Logically speaking, this tree should not be called the World Tree, but rather the weapon counting."
At this time, Xie Jun also looked at the weapons that were like leaves, he was a little intoxicated. He liked to collect weapons from the beginning, so he started to make plans to take down a few pieces of leaves to be collected.
But after half a day of pulling with all his might, he still could not pull the halberd like leaf down, so he used a technique to pick it. Lei Yang could clearly feel that the weapon like tree leaves suddenly released a strong signal to attack, but Xie Jun himself was not aware of it at all.
Seeing this situation, Lei Yang immediately understood that this was probably related to him possessing the fourth source energy, so he could feel it, but no one else could. Thus, he quickly stopped Big Brother from doing anything.
But it was still too late for Lei Yang. Just as he was about to stop Xie Jun from doing anything, he suddenly heard a scream from behind him. It was followed by a terrified cry.1
As the commander of the entire Heavenly Legion, naturally Lei Yang had to go and take a look, but he was only a brother. He had the same idea as Xie Jun a moment ago, wanting to collect a few leaves that looked like weapons.
In the end, he did not expect that the leaves all around him would suddenly fall off and cut him down at an extremely fast speed. He was completely caught off guard and had nowhere to retreat to, as the sharp, weaponal-like leaves directly sliced him into pieces. He was killed, and his death was rather miserable.
Previously, although the space under the tree was very dark, everyone was still in a relaxed mood. However, because of this incident, the atmosphere here instantly became tense and strange.
Lei Yang revealed a look of heartache. After all, these thousand over brothers were all part of the Heavenly Legion, and every single one of them were his flesh and blood. Lei Yang let the brothers beside the cultivator bury him deeply, then bowed to him deeply before returning to the front.
He was thinking about how he had lost the life of a brother the moment he set foot in the vicinity of the World Tree. This made Lei Yang feel like he was at a disadvantage, and also made him understand that the danger within the boundaries of the World Tree was much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
After some thought, Lei Yang loudly shouted towards all his brothers, and after stressing it for a while, he asked them to restrain their curiosity and not to touch anything within the boundaries of the World Tree. Only after that did he lead his legion forward into the pitch black area, where the World Tree was located even deeper.
