Chapter 348 The Pit God Reappears
After picking out a relatively strong tree root, Chen Ziyang put his things on his back, and then slowly moved down the tree root.

Although all the tree roots near the place he chose to climb down were almost destroyed, there were still a few tree roots that were relatively strong and could fully withstand the weight of two people.Seeing that the roots of the tree were stronger, Chen Ziyang raised his head and signaled Yang Lei to follow him, and the two climbed down the roots one by one.

Chen Ziyang was very careful when crawling downwards, for fear that the tree root in his hand would break suddenly. Every time he moved down a certain distance, he would stop at the same spot, grabbing the shaking body of the tree root vigorously, I want to see if the roots are moving or showing signs of breaking.In this way, if the roots of the tree are not strong, you can find out in advance, so that you and Yang Lei will not suddenly fall into the depths of the cliff.

Seeing that the roots of the tree were much stronger than they had imagined, Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei were relieved, and the speed of the two of them crawling down was much faster.

Compared with the time when the two of them crawled horizontally inside the remnant of the ancient tree, it is much more comfortable for the two of them to crawl on the roots of the tree now.Almost all the sharp thorns on the tree roots here have fallen off, and even if there are a few remaining there occasionally, they can't pose too much threat to the two people.

And this time, the two of them crawled down the tree roots, instead of crawling horizontally on the spiked tree roots like last time, so the physical exertion of the two of them was relatively small.

After crawling for a while, Chen Ziyang looked down. The thick tree root was still far below him, much farther than he estimated. It was probably because of the black mist and the thick tree root. Let yourself have a visual illusion. In fact, the thick tree root is more than tens of meters away from the place where I saw this tree root for the first time.

Now Chen Ziyang has come to the edge of the black mist. At this height, the black mist floating in mid-air is faintly visible. Chen Ziyang doesn't know if the black mist is poisonous and will cause harm to the human body. When he saw that the black line protruding from the soul group got thicker, he didn't care about it so much, so he could only bite the bullet and continue down.

Yang Lei, who was at a high place, saw Chen Ziyang disappearing into the darkness, and he almost couldn't see where Chen Ziyang was.Yang Lei, who was a little flustered, speeded up his hands and hurriedly chased down, for fear that he would be left behind.

Chen Ziyang, who had just entered the black mist, stopped and carefully observed the surrounding environment.Although he was a little impatient and wanted to deal with the tree demon as soon as possible, the necessary preparations still took time.The situation here is unknown, so it is too reckless to enter the tree demon's territory hastily.

Yang Lei at the top didn't know that Chen Ziyang had stopped. The black mist blocked his sight, and he couldn't see where Chen Ziyang was.Yang Lei was still crawling down quickly. Because he was eager to catch up with Chen Ziyang, his movements on his hands and feet were very large. Just when Yang Lei came to the edge of the black mist, because the movements were too wide Big, he raised his leg violently and pulled the wound on his buttocks.

Suddenly feeling the tearing pain from his buttocks, Yang Lei subconsciously stomped his foot down hard, trying to relieve his pain, but what Yang Lei didn't expect was that, His foot just happened to step on Chen Ziyang's shoulder below.

Chen Ziyang, who was holding the tree root in one hand and watching in the black mist with a flashlight in the other, suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder, and felt something hit his shoulder hard, and he was caught off guard. The child let go of his right hand that was gripping the root of the tree.

After yelling badly in his heart, Chen Ziyang hurriedly dropped the flashlight in his hand, and quickly grabbed the tree root with both hands.Fortunately, his reaction was quicker, and the surface of the tree root was also good for grasping. Chen Ziyang firmly grasped the tree root with both hands.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a cracking sound from the tree root that the two people were holding on to, and the two people exerted force on the tree root at the same time, which caused the tree root, which was not too strong to begin with, to suddenly burst into flames. broken.

Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei, who were holding on to the tree roots, only felt that the tree roots were slowly leaving the rock wall, and their bodies slowly fell backwards.

Originally, the part of the tree roots above the cliff was relatively strong, and it was more closely attached to the rock wall, but the part of the tree roots below the rock wall was not like this.

When he first started down the tree roots, Chen Ziyang was still cautious, for fear that the roots would not be strong, so he had to check the condition of the trunk every time he slid down a certain distance.

However, after several trips, Chen Ziyang found that the root of the tree was very strong, so he relaxed his vigilance, so that he didn't care about the root at all in the later journey, but now this careless approach made him pay. paid the price.

As the tree roots left the rock wall, Chen Ziyang felt that his body was leaning back faster and faster, but fortunately, the angle of leaning back was not too large, so he hurriedly put his feet on the rock wall. With a kick, he jumped to the side and reached out to grab another tree root.

Yang Lei, who was on top of Chen Ziyang, knew something was wrong when he stepped on the foot. From the feeling on his feet, Yang Lei judged that his foot should be on Chen Ziyang's shoulder, but before he opened his mouth Asking Chen Ziyang below about the situation, he suddenly heard the sound of tree roots breaking, and felt that the roots were breaking away from the rock wall.

At this time, Yang Lei could no longer care about the pain in his buttocks. Relying on his instinctive reaction, Yang Lei also made almost the same movement as Chen Ziyang, kicking with one foot, and grabbed the tree roots next to him.

What Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei didn't expect was that although the two of them grabbed different tree roots, none of the two tree roots could bear the weight of the two of them and broke again.

Most of the tree roots nearby have been destroyed, so Chen Ziyang chose the stronger tree root before. When the two of them felt that the tree root they were holding was broken again, Just follow the previous method and grab other tree roots again.

In this way, Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei kept jumping up and down like two rabbits climbing on the rock wall. The roots of the trees were broken one after another under their pull, and the broken roots were covered with dust. fell into the abyss below.

Now all the attention of the two people is focused on their hands and the roots. This kind of fast jumping on the rock wall is very exhausting. It is possible that after another three or five times, the two of them will make a major mistake due to exhaustion. At that time, it is not the root of the tree that fell into the abyss, but the two of them.

Chen Ziyang, who felt the soreness in his legs and hands, suddenly grabbed a section of tree root. When he firmly grasped this tree root, the tree root still left the rock wall. Chen Ziyang secretly He yelled badly, at this time he had almost exhausted his whole body's strength, and it was estimated that he could only make two jumps like this at most.

Just as Chen Ziyang looked around quickly, hoping to find a thicker tree root, he suddenly felt that the tree root he was holding stopped shaking.

Although the tree root was detached from the rock wall, the tree root did not break, but it shook slightly after Chen Ziyang grabbed it. It seemed that the tree root was not too strong, and it could fall from the rock at any time. There is a possibility of complete detachment from the wall.

At this time, Chen Ziyang, who had grasped the life-saving straw, finally let out a sigh of relief. He hurriedly stepped on the rock wall, leaned his body against the root of the tree, and used the strength of his arms to firmly hold the root of the tree. Clamp to relieve soreness in your forearm.

But before Chen Ziyang rested for a second, suddenly a violent shaking was transmitted from this tree root again. Coincidentally, after several jumps, Yang Lei also caught this tree root .In this vicinity, this root is the only one that can bear the weight of two people.

"Don't move!" After trying to understand the reason for the shaking of the tree roots, Chen Ziyang hurriedly reminded Yang Lei above. After he finished shouting this sentence, the degree of shaking of the tree roots eased a little. Obviously, Yang Lei also understood. Seeing this truth, he hastily stopped his movements.The two of them held onto the root tightly without daring to move, quietly waiting for the root to stabilize.

After the tree root stopped shaking, Chen Ziyang raised his head and said, "Si Leizi, don't move. This tree root is not strong. If you shake it again, it may break. You are a pit." , you are a big hole, it’s okay, why are you kicking me!"

"I... I didn't do it on purpose, who would have thought that you stopped there suddenly." Yang Lei said aggrievedly.

"You didn't mean to kick me. Now why are you grabbing my tree root again? You've got to cheat me once, and you're in danger of being tricked a second time."

"Inevitability exists in chance. This tree root is the only one that is strong nearby. If I don't hold on to it, I will fall. Er Yang, what should I do now?"

After venting his dissatisfaction in his heart, Chen Ziyang also knew that now was not the time to blame Yang Lei. The fog below made him unable to see the situation clearly, and the roots of the tree were also crumbling. .

"Lei Zi, don't move around. If the two of us lie on top, this tree root won't last long. I'll go down first, and you can come down after I'm down."

The method Chen Ziyang chose was also a helpless move. At this time, there was a slight cracking sound from the root of the tree. It was obvious that a certain part of the root could not bear it. If he didn't do anything else, It will be a matter of time before the two of them fall.

After hearing Yang Lei's affirmative answer, Chen Ziyang cautiously walked down the tree roots.His movements are very slow, even if he wants to be fast, he doesn't dare to do so, he can only use his smallest movements to move the largest distance possible.

After climbing for a while, Chen Ziyang was already dripping with sweat. This careful movement made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he accidentally broke the root of the tree.

Because he didn't have a flashlight, after entering the black fog, Chen Ziyang had almost no vision. Except for the black rock wall and tree roots in front of him, he couldn't see anything at all.

Although the whole crawling time was not very long, it seemed to Chen Ziyang that it had been a long time, until he looked down and finally saw the thick white tree roots appearing in front of him, Chen Ziyang did not grow out. He took a deep breath, then let go of his hands, and jumped onto the extremely thick tree root.

"Come down, be careful when going down, and move less." After shouting these words to Yang Lei, Chen Ziyang hurriedly observed the surrounding situation.It is very likely that the dryad is hiding in this place, so it is always right to be careful now.

After looking around briefly, Chen Ziyang was pleasantly surprised to find that the flashlight he had dropped was lying flat not far from him, but the flashlight was off, and he didn't know if it was broken.

Picking up the flashlight, after taking a few shots vigorously, the flashlight emitted light again.After shouting in his heart the blessings of the Patriarch of the Sanqing, Chen Ziyang hurriedly looked around carefully.

As the flashlight swept past, Chen Ziyang froze.

Although he was in the deepest part of the thick black fog, Chen Ziyang felt that the view here was not as bad as he imagined. What was unfolding in front of his eyes was a scene he had never seen before.

The thick tree roots can't see the boundary at all. From Chen Ziyang's perspective, this huge tree root is like a somewhat uneven white road, slightly higher in the middle and slightly lower on both sides .

Spikes, or pointed trees, still grow on the roots.Chen Ziyang glanced over and saw at least seven or eight spikes, and even the shortest of these spikes was more than two meters long.

It may be because of the particularly thick roots of this section of the tree. The spikes growing on the roots are not too dense. Now these spikes on the roots look like a forest of trees, and the spikes growing on the roots are like There are trees, and those black mist are like thick fog floating in the woods, but the woods in front of them are only black and white.

If it had been a different time, or a different location, Chen Ziyang would probably have sat down where he was, slowly enjoying the weird scenery in front of him, but right now he was not in the mood.

After walking a certain distance towards the center of the black fog that he remembered, Chen Ziyang stopped, because he was worried that Yang Lei would not find him, so he didn't dare to go too deep. During the journey, nothing other than tree roots was found at all.

Chen Ziyang, who didn't want to waste time, hastily sorted out the magical tools on his body. After sorting out, he activated his yin and yang eyes, trying to find a clue, but the black mist completely restrained the function of his yin and yang eyes. Can't see it either.

At this moment, Yang Lei rushed over from the direction behind Chen Ziyang, and shouted to Chen Ziyang while running: "The tree demon is over there!"
