The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 448
Chapter 448 Silent Island
The seawater of the Spirit Sea was jade green. Looking down from the sky, it was as beautiful as a translucent jade, making one feel relaxed and happy.
The three of them flew towards the east. About half a day later, a huge island appeared in front of them.
“It’s getting late. Let’s take a rest on this island.” Dongfang You Long said.
They pressed down on the clouds and entered the island.
The ancient trees on the island were towering, covering the sky and the sun. Most of the area was covered by primeval forests, a scene from the Wilderness Era.
“The trees here are so tall.” Dongfang Bingyun said in surprise.
“The Spiritual Sea is originally unfrequented and has not been damaged. It is not surprising that the trees are taller.” Dongfang You Long said.
“There are many rare places in the world, but I don’t think I’ve seen such a tall and dense forest, right?” Dongfang Bingyun said.
Dongfang Bingyun was right. The trees in the forest were indeed exaggerated. Old trees that were a hundred zhang tall could be seen everywhere. Some were even taller than a hundred zhang, reaching several hundred zhang in size.
Such a tall tree, if one or two trees were easy to understand, but they appeared in large patches and formed a forest, it would be somewhat shocking.
“This should be caused by the unique environment in the spiritual sea. The spiritual sea is abundant in spiritual energy. Even the sea water is formed from half of the spiritual energy. It’s not surprising that any monsters will grow out of it.” Li Qing said.
“That makes sense!” Dongfang You Long nodded. He immediately released his divine sense and swept into the depths of the forest. He couldn’t help but frown.
“What’s the matter?” Dongfang Bingyun asked.
“This forest is somewhat terrifyingly quiet! Logically speaking, even if demonic beasts are not everywhere, there must be at least some ferocious animals in this primeval forest. However, when I swept through it with my divine sense just now, there wasn’t even a single vicious creature. This situation is a bit strange.”
“Perhaps there is a secret hidden in the depths of this forest.”
“Forget it, I don’t care about it anymore.” Dongfang You Long was a little careless. “Although this place is a bit strange, I didn’t find any danger wherever my divine sense passed. It should be safe. We should rest here for a night and make plans tomorrow.”
Li Qing and Dongfang Bingyun both nodded in agreement. After all, they only stayed here for one night. They only needed to make sure that the surroundings were safe. As for the secrets in the depths of the forest, this was not something they cared about.
After finding a suitable place, they settled down in the forest.
Night fell, and the surroundings were lonely. There was not even a single bug cry, and it was somewhat terrifyingly quiet. In the distance, there was only the sound of the tide surging in the Spirit Sea. The light of the moon in the sky shone into the forest, sprinkling a thin veil, like a dream.
By midnight, they had all fallen asleep, their eyes gently closed.
At this moment, a strange change appeared! While they were asleep, several enormous wooden thorns instantly rushed out from the ground. Their speed was incredibly fast, piercing out from where they were lying.
Boom!
The ground was torn apart, and a large hole was pierced through. The power of the hole was extremely terrifying. If it was pierced, it would definitely be torn to shreds.
Fortunately, they were all extraordinary people, their strengths were extremely high, and they didn’t dare to sleep too deeply in such a strange place. They had just woken up with some strange movements. In the blink of an eye, he immediately dodged the lightning flint.
“Swoosh!” Li Qing’s figure flashed and dodged the attack.
Dongfang You Long’s reaction was also extremely fast. He quickly rolled up Dongfang Bing Yun and flashed elsewhere.
“It’s really dangerous! This is my mistake!” Dongfang You Long’s expression was extremely ugly.
Fortunately, they had noticed the crisis ahead of time and dodged it in time. Otherwise, it would be tragic. Being attacked with such terrifying power, he would naturally not be in danger as a Void Realm expert. However, Dongfang Bingyun was hard to say, and most likely, he would be torn to pieces.
Dongfang Bingyun was his life, and now he was almost killed by a sneak attack. How could he not be extremely angry?
“Dad, didn’t you say that you used your divine sense to investigate? There isn’t any danger nearby?” Dongfang Bingyun said with lingering fear.
Dongfang You Long was a little embarrassed, “These should be forest tree demons. I don’t know how to hide them from my divine sense. Let’s not study this for the time being. Let’s deal with the next danger first.”
Rumble!
The rows of trees quickly moved and gathered together to form a huge cage. All the exits were completely sealed off, and a faint green light was emitted from these trees.
“Hmph, a mere tree demon dares to be presumptuous in front of me!” Dongfang You Long was furious and immediately struck out with his palm.
“Roaming Dragon Palm!”
It was as if a True Dragon flew out of its palm and smashed into one of the tree walls. A heaven-shaking sound could be heard. The cage emitted a resplendent green light that actually blocked the palm of the Eastern Wandering Dragon.
After suffering such a blow, the cage was completely unharmed, and the green light emitted from the tree wall became even denser.
“It can’t be!” Dongfang You Long cried out in alarm, his eyes filled with disbelief. He was at least a Void Realm expert. Even though he had just reached this level, his strength could not be underestimated.
This was his first battle since reaching the Void Realm. Originally, he had been full of confidence in destroying the enemy, but he never expected that he would suffer such a big setback.
“In the depths of this island, there should be a Demon Saint level tree demon controlling all of this. It can combine all the trees in the island into one. It is normal for Senior to not be able to break through it.” Li Qing said.
Dongfang You Long’s attack was ineffective, and he felt that his face was completely lost. He felt ruthless in his heart and shouted in a low voice, “I don’t believe it! Can’t you break through a mere tree cage like yours today?”
He took out a sword from his interspatial ring. It was carved with dragon markings. The dragon energy was boundless, and the divine light was dazzling, causing people to not dare to look directly at it.
This was a spirit artifact.
With this divine sword in hand, he immediately felt his confidence increase. He roared, “Go, Roaming Dragon Sword!”
Boom!
The boundless power of heaven and earth surged over, transforming into a hundred zhang sword. A faint dragon roar could be heard, and a golden dragon phantom surrounded it.
This scene was the manifestation of the spirit artifact being activated to its maximum power. Dongfang You Long was already a Void Realm expert, so he was naturally able to accomplish this.
“Slash!”
The Roaming Dragon Sword landed on the tree wall and heard a loud rumble. The tree wall emitted a green light, wanting to resist this sword strike. However, the power of the spirit artifact was beyond imagination, and it instantly tore apart the green light.
However, before the Traveling Dragon Sword could strike the tree wall, it saw endless green light surging out from the surroundings. Like a current, it wrapped around the tree and blocked the sword.
“His recovery ability is actually this powerful!” Dongfang You Long frowned, “However, since I can break through this green light, I believe that sooner or later I will be able to break through this tree wall cage!”
He was unwilling, and then he slashed out with another sword!
In the following period of time, he slashed out a dozen times. Every time, he was able to cut through the green light on the trees. However, the toughness of the tree wall was beyond imagination. Every time, at the last moment, a burst of green light surged from the depths of the forest, blocking the attack of the spirit artifact.
Li Qing saw endless green light gushing over from the depths of the forest. It wrapped around the cage like a stream of water. Its defense was extremely strong. It was obviously not something that could be broken with a single blow.
This green light was the power of the entire forest. It contained the aura of life. It flowed endlessly. Even if one layer was successfully broken, there would still be a second layer.
“By the time the demonic beast reached the Demonic Saint level, it was already intelligent. Compared to humans, it was not far behind. This tree demon was not easy to deal with!” Li Qing frowned.
The tree cage in front of him could already be considered to have faintly concealed the profound meaning of the formation, and it was impossible for a creature without intelligence to do so.
Naturally, this tree demon had never seen a human formation before, but this forest was originally born from heaven and earth, and had never suffered any damage. It could barely be considered a formation of heaven and earth!
The Heaven and Earth Array was a divine art! In other words, this tree demon was using a terrifying formation created by heaven and earth to fight against the human race!
After waiting for a long time, seeing that Dongfang You Long was still unable to break through the tree cage, Li Qing said, “Uncle, let me give it a try.”
“You?” Dongfang You Long was a little suspicious. He admitted that Li Qing’s strength was not bad. But how powerful could a Xiantian expert be? How could this cage be broken?
After all, even a grand Void Realm spirit artifact in his hand could not be broken.
“There’s no harm in trying. Perhaps we really succeeded?” Li Qing smiled.
“Alright, you can give it a try.” Dongfang You Long took a step back, not feeling lucky.
Li Qing gently stretched out his hand. Suddenly, a yellow flame appeared in his hand, and its shape became bigger and bigger. A huge amount of heat was emitted, baking the surrounding trees, causing the green light to constantly shake.
He continuously poured his True Essence into the flames and absorbed so much energy. The flames quickly grew to several hundred feet in size, forming a cloud of flames that flew into the sky.
Boom!
The clouds of flame rapidly rolled in the air. The tiny fire elements were arranged according to some sort of order, forming an incomparably solid structure.
The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth began to surge crazily, as if some mysterious and unfathomable power was constantly awakening.
An ancient and violent power slowly rose up in the void, as if it had been sleeping for thousands of years. Finally, it awakened for the first time, causing the heavens and earth to change color.
All of the flames instantly burst out with the most intense light, illuminating the darkness in the depths of the forest. It far exceeded any light in the world. It even made one feel as if even the blazing sun had descended. It was probably nothing more than this.
A gigantic head slowly stretched out from the clouds of flames. It was as dazzling as the sun, unable to look straight at it. It was clearly an ancient fire dragon bathed in blazing flames, and every place was filled with flames.
This was a blazing fire dragon that was several hundred feet tall. Its body wasn’t too big, but it gave off the feeling that it could fill the entire world and burn everything in the world.
