Chapter 258 Self-understanding
After self-examination, Ye Li felt that there should be no problem with the aroma, so he continued to climb towards the top of the tree.

As he continued to penetrate deeper into the clouds and mist, the four people below were gradually left far behind. After all, his climbing speed was much faster than the four people.

The cloud and mist slowly enveloped him, and he couldn't see anything around him except the cloud and mist.

Ye Li climbed up the tree for nearly an hour, but the road above was still covered in mist, and he couldn't see anything.

Looking around and below him, it was completely the same scene. If it wasn't for the existence of this tree, Ye Li would not be able to tell the difference between up, down, left, right, and front and back.

Ye Li crawled for an hour in this same boring scene.

The surrounding fragrance was still strong, but he seemed to be numb to the smell, and it was a little hard to detect. The only emotion in his heart now was anxiety.

Because he didn't know how long he would have to climb to reach the top of the tree. He felt that he had climbed for about an hour, but because there was no reference, he didn't know how high he had climbed.

And as time goes by, he doesn't even know whether his sense of time is normal, that is to say, he doesn't know whether he really climbed for an hour or two hours or just half an hour.

Suspicions began to arise in his heart, doubting whether he had gone the wrong way, suspecting that there was a tree hole in the tree trunk he passed before, and he needed to enter.

There was a wave of thoughts in his heart that he wanted to go back and check again, and this idea became more and more intense as he continued to climb.

After continuing to climb up for another quarter of an hour, Ye Li felt that he was very tired, but there was still no sign that he was about to reach the top of the tree. He seemed to have stayed in place and hadn't moved at all.

He couldn't help but think that this might be the test of the Wooden Trial Land, allowing him to find the correct way to reach the top of the big tree.

But now he has no idea what his situation is. He has not been able to reach the top of the tree, is it because the tree is constantly growing, or he has entered some space formation, and after climbing to a certain stage, he will be blocked by the space again. Teleport below.

The more he climbed, the more chaotic thoughts in his mind became, and various guesses flashed frequently, he couldn't help but finally stopped, thinking in his mind that he wanted to slide down the big tree to see if he could reach the bottom of the tree.

At the moment when he was about to act, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but think of the three previous trials.

What he has to do now is not to try blindly, no matter whether it is going up or down, it is wrong, but to understand Mu Xing's spirit first.

Since Tun Ri said at the beginning that the five elements trial here is for people to comprehend the spirit of the five elements, so as long as he can figure out what the spirit of Mu Xing is, he will definitely be able to find a way to pass the trial.

Ye Li, who was parked on the tree, began to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and fell into deep thought.

When talking about Mu Xing, the first thing he thinks of is vitality, whether it is trees, flowers or plants, they all express vitality.

But this is just like the impermanent shape of water, which is just the characteristic of wood, not its spiritual expression.

Following the steps that Tunri had used to guide him to think about the spirit of the water element, he couldn't help but continue to wonder where the characteristics of the wood element manifested.

In Ye Li's mind, he couldn't help but recall his experience of going outing in the Monster Mountain Range when he was a child in the Great Wilderness City.

In the early spring, everything revives, and countless new shoots sprout on the trees.

What impresses him the most is that some tender grass growing under the stones, the soft grass sprouts can push the heavy stones away with a stubborn force of upward growth.

This incident left a deep impression on his childish heart.

Thinking of this, he suddenly vaguely understood what the test of the Mu Xing Trial was.

Isn't the predicament he is in now just like the stones on the tender grass, he doesn't know how much strength he needs and how long he will persist to push the stones off his head.

But if he has the spirit of wood, that kind of indomitable spirit, he can naturally explode with strength far beyond his estimation.

What he has to do now is to transform into a tender grass, draw strength from the land in early spring, keep growing upwards, and try to break through the soil to find a new world.

The surrounding environment is the same, just like the darkness in the land, making people desperate and lonely.

But no matter how much hesitation the external environment brings to him, he should not subjectively give up his determination to thrive. Presumably this must be the key to solving the puzzle of the trial.

When Ye Li realized these things, the original anxiety and doubt in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace, and his tired body seemed to regain strength.

An astonishing divine light erupted from his eyes in an instant, piercing through the surrounding fog in an instant.

Then he suddenly discovered that a huge tree crown was less than 20 meters in front of him.

Looking down, the ground below could be vaguely seen. His current position was only about [-] meters high on the tree.

And the four people behind him had already chased him to a distance of about ten meters, but now they seemed to have lost their minds and stayed in place, but they would climb up a few meters from time to time.

"Ye Li, you've finally woken up, I thought you couldn't comprehend Mu Xing's spirit, and I was going to use the sound transmission of my spiritual consciousness to wake you up.

But you seem to have made some progress, and you can pass this test by yourself. "

Tun Ri's voice rang in Ye Li's ears.

Ye Li was stunned, and said: "Senior Tun Ri, what are you talking about, wake me up?
Could it be that I really fell into a hallucination just now, but I didn't feel the power of the soul attack. "

Tun Ri said: "When did I say that you were attacked by the power of the soul?

Soul attack is not the only thing that can make people enter the illusion. Didn't you smell a fragrance just now? "

After Tunri said this, Ye Li suddenly understood, and the doubts in his heart were completely cleared up.

"It turns out that it was the scent that made me enter the hallucination.

You must understand the spirit of Mu Xing and persevere all the way forward in order to break free from the illusion. "

Ye Li said excitedly.

Tun Ri nodded and said: "Yes, the purpose of this trial is to make people understand the spirit of Mu Xing.

It is different from the persistence in resisting external pressure during the earth walk trial.

In this wooden trial, what you need to overcome is the unsteady emotions that come from within yourself.

When a person is in a state of hesitation, loneliness, and unclear way forward, he is likely to give up what he has been insisting on, and start from the inside to disintegrate his own will.

I just felt the change in your heart. You stayed on the tree for a long time, and even faintly flinched. Fortunately, even if you wake up, you can pass the test. "
