God of Massacre

Chapter 277 - The Blood Tree

Staring at all the giant trees with roots on the surface of the water and covered by moss mixed with soil to form a small island, Yi Yun's spirit rose to a different level, naturally it was caused by a certain vibration occurring in his Profound Veins.

From this, Yi Yun learned that the Profound Veins of the God of Slaughter were indeed closely related to the place.

“Ayo.” Without wasting any time, Yi Yun immediately flew towards one of the nearby small islands to inspect the place.

Xiao Moxian, Xuan Yuqie and Yu Ruyan simply followed behind without comment. But they also want to know why the place can be like that.

The reason, that was because the tall tree tree such as producing Slaughter qi was also what made the Slaughter qi in the place become denser.

Arriving on one of the islands that had a diameter of about two kilometers, Yi Yun immediately looked at his surroundings closely.

“Hei Yi Yun, it seems that there were previously people living here.” Xuan Yuqie said as he pointed in a certain direction just below the giant tree.

“Yes. But it seems that the group of people living here has been gone for a very long time.” Yi Yun said as he slowly floated closer to the tree.

When he arrived before the dozens of simple buildings that had turned into ruins, Yi Yun narrowed his eyes.

“Not it..” Yi Yun's mind when he saw one of the certain buildings that had a slightly faded emblem. He also looked at other buildings and there was the same symbol even though it was not too complete and clear because the rocks that made the house had been destroyed.

Yu Ruyan slowly approached and held onto the stone fragments of the building that had a certain emblem seen by Yi Yun.

“This emblem... This is the emblem of the Yu Clan in ancient times.” Yu Ruyan muttered in a serious tone.

Hearing that, Yi Yun's eyes widened slightly and looked towards Yu Ruyan with a astonished look.

“What did you say? This is the emblem of the Yu Clan in ancient times?” Yi Yun asked ascertained once more as he had seen such an emblem also somewhere and that was when he was at the location the Ren Clan was at. One of the statues has the emblem on the clothes worn even if it is just a sculptural sculpture.

“Yes, no more mistakes. I've seen the old records in the Yu Clan even though no one cares about it. The emblem of this Great Sword-shaped Clan was recorded in the old record.” Yu Ruyan said.

“If so, is Yu Ruyan a member of that damn female Clan?” Inner Yi Yun and thought of the possibilities he thought of.

Yi Yun saw the emblem on the clothes of the female statue claiming to be the true owner of the Profound Veins of the God of Slaughter. He said that it was part of his strength in the past before he let go of it for some reason.

“He is not necessarily his descendant. If she was an ancient goddess, it could be said that the Yu Clan in the Sky Continent was her devotee and made the Yu Clan to honor her. Otherwise, how could only Yu Ruyan have Slaughter qi?” Inner Yi Yun.

“Is it possible that the Yu Clan used to live here and then go to the Sky Continent?” Xiao Moxian also made her own speculations.

Yu Ruyan who heard that seemed to think for a while then shook her head, “I don't know. There was no record of that in the Yu Clan. The Yu Clan has been living in the Sky Continent for a very long time.”

“This could happen considering that these buildings are very old. After a long time had passed, the Yu Clan might have forgotten where they came from.” Xuan Yuqie also joined the conversation.

Yi Yun who heard from the side nodded in agreement with Xuan Yuqie's words. He slowly walked towards the front of the tree and examined the tree carefully from a very close distance.

The sraing!

Wanting to try, Yi Yun immediately slashed the tree and what he found made him very surprised.

Even Xiao Moxian, Xuan Yuqie and Yu Ruyan who were chatting stared at Yi Yun and were shocked as well.

“This.this tree is very hard. I had slashed it with all my might and only gave it a small scratch. However, whether a tree will remove.”.

“This is sap or blood?” Yi Yun did not know what to say seeing the liquid that seemed to drip from the tree because the liquid was slightly viscous and red in color.

“This is blood.” Xuan Yuqie who had approached and watched closely spoke after he tried to touch the liquid using his qi.

“Yi Yun! Lookie! An extremely abundant Slaughter Qi evaporated from that liquid.” Yu Ruyan who was approaching immediately exclaimed.

Yi Yun who initially seemed to be thinking and gazing towards the top of the tree frowned and looked closely at the liquid.

Wussh!

The Blood Sword absorbed the liquid at an extremely high speed which made him even more shocked.

“This.. how can it? It is true that this Sword is called the Blood Sword. But it has never absorbed blood before.” Inner Yi Yun.

“System! Check this tree!” Yi Yun's orders were in his mind.

[Dig!]

[Starting to analyze]

[Dig!]

[Analysis complete]

[The tree currently before the Host is the Blood Tree that absorbs living things to expand to further away, the more blood is absorbed, the Blood Tree will grow taller]

[The water coming from the Blood Tree is a liquid that is a fusion of the blood of living beings with the unique sap produced by the Blood Tree]

[The Blood Tree is considered a unique plant like a spiritual beast because it produces qi from its leaves]

[Warning!]

[Special Blood Tree exists that has developed its mind like a spiritual beast. If there was a Blood Tree that had mutated, the plant would be able to control all of its roots in search of prey so that they could absorb its blood as the main nutrient]

Yi Yun's eyes widened when he heard what the System said. He was immediately wary of all the surrounding areas because it was possible that the Blood Tree before him was one that mutated.

“Arrrrgh!”

The loud cries of some cultivators echoed from a very distant place which made Yi Yun, Xiao Moxian, Xuan Yuqie and Yu Ruyan instantly turn their heads towards the source of the sound.

“Is there a fight elsewhere on one of these giant trees?” Xuan Yuqie asked with a frown on her forehead as her Spiritual energy perception could not reach far away where they entered.

“No, it's not a fight, but a massacre!” yi Yun said with a grim face.

“What do you mean?” Yu Ruyan asked looking towards Yi Yun.

“These trees are the problem..” Yi Yun also told about the Blood Tree and there was likely a tree that had mutated and turned into a predator that liked to prey on living things to absorb its blood.

“How is it possible? If so, is this tree also?” Xuan Yuqie directly jumped away from the tree as well as Xiao Moxian and Yu Ruyan after hearing the explanation from Yi Yun.

“I'm sure that this tree is not. But, I am sure that many cultivators have arrived at this location as well. And the cries of the few cultivators earlier must have been because this Blood Tree was attacking them!” yi Yun said and tried to check once again whether the tree before them had mutated or not.

“Then, how to distinguish this Blood Tree has mutated or not?” Yu Ruyan asked hurriedly because she knew that if they entered the place of the Mutated Blood Tree, the chances of them dying were very high.

Yi Yun did not directly answer and asked System in his mind, “System! How to distinguish a mutated Blood Tree from an ordinary one?”

[Dig!]

[There is no difference between the two in terms of form or aura. Only when the Blood Tree controlled its roots to prey on its prey]

The System's answer made Yi Yun slightly goosebumps knowing that the place they entered was indeed very dangerous.

And all the ruins of the buildings that were there had been predicted by Yi Yun to be left behind because there was a Blood Tree that had mutated.
