Chapter 1245 Hunting the Dead Life, Empty Memory

From mountain tops to canyons, from forests to grasslands, from swamps to caves... the nine-tailed giant tiger roams the land of Xumi, devouring the poison that harms nature.

His hunting was different from all other hunting in the world. People hunted in life and created death, but he hunted in death and created life.

He saved them at the cost of his own life, risking his life on the scales of life and death.

An endlessly changing maze appeared on his body. The forest was the forest king's internal organs, the maze was the forest king's palace, and his internal organs were the forest, which was a maze of deep whispers that imprisoned "death".

It is not the fences and grids formed by trees, vines, streams, and cliffs, but the shackles and cages formed by bones, meridians, blood, and flesh.

At this moment, his meridians were like the legendary Jie Bo Lian vine, which was as endless as time, with no beginning and no end, connecting the nerve roots of the human skeleton and all the channels of the flesh, blood, and internal organs.

The meridians break inch by inch, wither and die in death, and then regenerate continuously in life, in an endless cycle of birth and death.

The five internal organs failed, the blood corrupted, the skin ulcerated, and then healed again, pulsating, flowing, and proliferating...

The extreme pain that transcends all human senses and endurance is like a pitch-black flame, forging the Taoist and Zen mind that is unmovable and beyond the cycle of life and death.

The supreme seal formed by the dark red spatial authority in the body was also constantly shaken by the power of the cycle of life and death, like solid ice that had been indestructible for tens of millions of years beginning to melt.

The darkness tramples on the rules and dissolves the space; the sky tampers with the rules and reconstructs everything; Tai Su channels the power of his whole body amidst the chaotic rules.

After once again swallowing a death zone tumor on the earth, a huge death zone of several thousand meters, he came to a cave. Inside the cave, the vast water area was emitting strange colors.

That is the color of death.

The power of the dead zone permeated into the water, as if a dark fog was dancing in the water, and then... the water died, and the life that drank the water also died.

The vegetation around the water also looked sick.

Jiang Yi lay by the water, drinking the water from which all things withered.

All the mushroom beasts within a thousand miles of this area expressed their submission when he arrived. The spores of mushroom beasts naturally carry the breath of mushroom beasts. The language of mushroom beasts contains part of the luck, spiritual veins and spores of the mushroom beast clan. He can make all the mushroom beasts who don't know him know that he is the God of Mushroom Beasts, the god chosen and submitted to by his own clan.

More and more mushroom beasts recognized him, so they surrendered faster and faster, and continued to spread his image to other members of the same tribe.

In the common dreams of the mushroom beasts, his image becomes increasingly majestic and gigantic, transforming into a giant tiger with a human face and nine tails, perched on the top of the Spore Nebula above the dark night sky. His eyes are as huge as the sun and the moon, and his breath can bring up a storm with stars shining in the universe.

The worship of the mushroom beasts is primitive and pious. They regard every spore as a star, every spore as a star core, and every strand of hyphae as the flesh and blood and plants of the stars...making up the dream of the universe.

The power of faith is not much but pure. They ask for nothing else and do not have many desires like humans. All they want is to keep evolving, improve the essence of life, and turn dreams into reality.

"Oracle - attack the fools who are driving around Xumi and destroy their plans."

Dreams and beliefs became the channel connecting God and mushrooms, and then oracles were sent to all places.

In several Fatui's secret bases, the plan of "extracting the energy of the Dead Zone for weaponization" is underway. On this day, the base was besieged and attacked by many fungus beasts.

In the dark, there are also beast hounds watching eagerly.

"Huh..." Paimeng panted, his hands on his hips, "Jiang Yi ran too fast. He just passed by Huachengguo and wanted to go see Kelai, but he ran towards Xiangzuipo without stopping!"

Xiangzui Slope is located on the hillside northeast of Lidu Valley in Xumi City, bordering the Yuanjue Pagoda and the Layered Rock Abyss.

"If you want to see Kelai, just send your greetings with the jade slip," Ying consoled him. "Now we still have to follow Jiang Yi's steps, save the forest, and break the Fatui's layout in various places in Xumi."

"Now, the mushroom beasts and the beast hounds are considered our teammates. This not only reduces the number of battles with monsters, but also gives us more helpers when fighting against the Fatui."

Paimon nodded and thought: "Speaking of the Fatui, didn't the Doctor notice the anomalies in various places? Or is it because the god-making experiment has entered a critical stage and he can't delay it?"

The Fatui bases in various locations have been frequently attacked by monsters during this period. This is not normal at all. Don't the Fatui have any contact with each other?

"Perhaps... the doctor doesn't care about the people below." Ying remembered what Alfonso said. All of them are research resources for the doctor. "The data obtained from the God-making Project may be more important to him than dealing with the crisis of the Fatui being attacked."

"Besides, the Fatui who can't defeat the monsters are likely to be classified as waste by the doctor!" Paimon snorted, "Whoever reports it will become material for the laboratory."

"Hiss - such a boss is scary to think about." Paimon shuddered.

"Shh!" Ying suddenly moved her ears.

"Bad intentions, Lana really needs help..."

Ying and Paimon pushed aside the bushes and looked over, and saw a Lanaro flying in the air, with a brown-red hat and a brown-yellow body.

"Hey! Do you need any help?" Paimon felt fond of Lannaro and spoke up immediately, scaring Lannaro.

"Golden Nala?" Lan Nazhen looked at Ying with confusion and curiosity.

……

"Gulu!"

In the cave, Jiang Yi drank up all the water of death in the entire body of water, and at the same time ate the "death zone" under the water.

"Hmm? Sulla Mushroom?" Nashida on Jiang Yi's shoulder saw a Tree King Holy Body Mushroom of a different color on the rock exposed after the water dried up. Just now, this Tree King Holy Body Mushroom was soaked in the water, and now there is a green light seal protecting it.

"Hmm! So that's how it is!" Nashida spoke to the Tree King Holy Body Mushroom of a different color.

"He said that Wuliuda was moving too fast and had to be stopped for the sake of the forest. He could stop Wuliuda, but he couldn't hold out for long... It was very uncomfortable, luckily you came."

"You're welcome!" Jiang Yi said to Mushroom.

The Sulla mushroom responded with a small fluorescent light that sounded like a song and emitted a medicinal fragrance.

"The meaning of Sula is 'intoxicated in a dream'. The ability of Sula mushroom can make the Uruda retreat a little and delay its expansion. But for him, this is also a very dangerous move. If he is not careful, he will die." Nashida just got a lot of information.

"He used to live under a stone blessed by Narafaluna. The stone shattered itself after many, many moons. The shattered stone sealed his place in a cave full of water, and together with the vines, it covered and protected him underwater."

"He's safe!"

"He...he said that he wants to go with you now and become the elixir 'Lan Hema'. This is the mission he realized after meeting you."

"..." Jiang Yi closed his eyes and shook his head, "I don't need your sacrifice."

He turned and left, "Nashida, let's go to the next place!"

His figure leaped and disappeared in the cave, leaving only the Sumeru Mushroom struggling in the green seal. This green seal was the force that protected its growth from the erosion of the dead zone, and now it also became a force of confinement that could not be eliminated for a while.

He is not a plant, he is a mushroom. He has no roots, but he can absorb nutrients from rocks. He has no legs, but he can run. He wants to catch up with the candidate for the forest king.

Just as clouds know to drop raindrops, and raindrops know to fall into the ground, seeds know to grow strong, become big trees, and bear rich fruits.

He is one of the ingredients of the elixir Lankhma, which can heal the earth devoured by Uttarakuru, and can also be transformed into the flame of life, becoming the "part of life" that can resist death and become a candidate for the forest king.

The hymn and beautiful dream of life are never created alone.

For the forest, for the blue earth, he can become part of the "Song of Life".

After Jiang Yi left.

Ying, Paimon and Lana, whom they just met, arrived late.

"Wulituo has disappeared?" He was stunned when he heard that Ying and Paimeng from the Dead Zone were here.

"Sula Mushroom!" Lana was really happy to step forward and communicate with Sura Mushroom.

"Suragi said that he met the King of Grass and the candidate for the King of the Forest. The candidate for the King of the Forest devoured Uruta and left. Suragi wanted the candidate for the King of the Forest to take him with him, but the candidate for the King of the Forest refused."

"The Suloathus is smarter than ordinary mushrooms, but like ordinary mushrooms, he is not afraid of death."

Lan Nazhen sighed: "He asked us to help unlock the seal that protects his growth. He wants to become Lan Hema."

Lan Nazhen originally came to persuade "Sula Mushroom" to become "Lan Hema".

The Wuliutuo in Wuyuyimo is getting bigger and bigger. Wuyuyimo is in great pain and needs the treatment of "Lanhema" to survive. But now, it can be a matter of treating the candidate for the Forest King of the Devouring Dead Domain.

Wuyuyimo is located in the northeast of Xumi and is a mushroom forest.

"The candidate for the Forest King is so amazing. He didn't use the cracks in the stone to drain out the water that dissolved the power of Uttarakuru, but drank it directly." Lan Nazhen looked at the remaining water marks on the cliff in amazement.

"Then Laying, go and break the seal! Let's take Sulla Mushroom away." He made the decision to fulfill Sulla Mushroom's wish. One seed and one big tree cannot become a forest. Only many, many seeds and many, many big trees can become a forest.

The candidate for the Forest King is very powerful, a very large tree, but one tree is not enough.

Even the King of Thousand Trees once brought us Lanaro to solve the disaster together.

The power of every little bit gathered together cannot be ignored, just like the sea.

We will also stand beside the candidate for the Forest King and face death together.

"Although we often eat mushrooms, and we will be able to... continue to want to eat mushrooms in the future. But this is because we are different from Lanaro and others. We can't hear what the mushrooms say. Jiang Yi can hear it, right?" Paimon scratched his head, "Even if this mushroom wants to become medicine, he can't eat it."

"Everyone who dies will be reborn in another body, and everything that decays will sprout pure and tender new buds. This is not death, but rebirth in the body of the candidate for the Forest King." Lanna said, "You don't understand, Nara doesn't understand, death is terrible, the candidate for the Forest King needs to bear the weight of 'death', that is a weight that even the King of a Thousand Trees needs to leave, and that is the weight that many gods have sacrificed their lives for."

"In that place of gold, that place of sand, one day you may be able to reach that legendary place and see the sacrifice."

"Use 'Kushehuan', the fat seed, the bitter fruit, the temporary residence of Lannaro's memory. Arouse Lannazhen's strength, piece together the ancient stones, and unlock the seal."

Kushehuan is a palm-sized green seed that looks like a pea pod. There are leaves on the small sprouts, which contain the memory of Lannaro, which is equivalent to the power of Lannaro, allowing the holder to use Lannaro's magic.

Ying and Paimon understood what Lanner meant.

This magic can repair broken elemental monuments and broken stones to solve the mysteries and mechanisms in the forest.

This is the "melody of resurrection".

"...Unseal it!" Ying couldn't make up her mind to sacrifice or save anyone, nor could she understand what kind of life Su Luo Mushroom was. She just wanted to take one step at a time and leave the choice to Su Luo Mushroom and Jiang Yi, who might meet again, to avoid troubles.
