All things in Ionia are animistic, and the forests are imbued with magic, so wildfires will never naturally form.

The Ionians believe in balancing and protecting nature, and there are very few lunatics who set fire to the mountains.

Therefore, the tragic scene of all things burning into silence rarely appeared in Ionia before, and no Ionian wanted to see it happen. But now...

"Bastard!" The shameless evil deeds of the Noxians had the effect of ridiculing the entire map.

Even Shen, the "old abbot", couldn't help but go on a killing spree, let alone others.

A flash of lightning flashed in Kenan's eyes, and thunder exploded around him. In an instant, it turned into a phantom of lightning and rushed straight towards the enemy formation.

Master Yi also rose up against the wind, and his sword merged into one, like a sharp and deadly invisible sword light, piercing the air and slashing towards him.

Even the little girl Akali waved her cross-hook sickle, using her still-green but deadly-enough martial arts skills to charge into the enemy formation with murderous intent.

...

Those Noxian soldiers were still bored and furiously attacking the forest. The next second, the cold light of the steel sword slashing down, the light of lightning blooming, and the sword energy coming from all directions appeared in front of them...

Then there were screams of fear, hurried monster roars, and the strange sounds of lightning burning flesh and blood and swords tearing apart human bodies.

And the sound didn't last long.

The mission of this Noxian team is just to set fire, so of course they are not elites with strong combat capabilities.

In fact, setting fire to the mountains destroys the balance and creates an indiscriminate invasion of evil spirits, which is inherently dangerous.

Therefore, the Noxian soldiers sent to perform such tasks were originally worthless third-line cannon fodder.

Of course, they don't know it themselves.

But they now understand. Facing the powerful combat power of the Kinkou Sect, the soldiers have almost no power to fight back.

The battle soon came to an end in a mess, and the frantic arson and bombardment finally stopped.

But this was just the beginning of the trouble.

The fire has been raging and has devoured forests all over the mountains and plains.

Thousands of creatures were annihilated in despair in the flames, and the power of darkness quickly gathered in the spiritual realm invisible to mortals.

"Everyone, be careful, the mutation is about to begin!" Shen didn't even bother to wipe the blood on his own steel sword, and raised the spirit-slaying soul blade again.

He could no longer care about his anger at this time, but there was still a solemn look in his eyes that could not be concealed.

The evil spirit has already hatched and taken shape in another world.

And the source of its power is not just the trees burned by the Noxians this time.

This is just the spark that ignites the barrel of dynamite.

It is the wars and killings that have occurred in the southern part of Shangzan Province for more than a year. The infinite dark energy created by these chaos has quietly nurtured it.

When this "black cloud" floated here and Shen observed it, it had already expanded extremely powerfully.

And now, it has been completely detonated in this raging fire——

The balance between the two realms, the invisible barrier between the spiritual realm and the material realm, finally collapsed and burst in the huge waves like a dam that could not bear the flood.

"Such a strong breath..." Master Yi swallowed nervously.

At this moment, he could also sense abnormalities in the mental realm.

No, this cannot be said to be abnormal. It should be said that it is terrifying.

This feeling is as if Zaun's alchemical gas tank exploded and you happened to be standing next to it.

It's just that the poisonous gas is tangible, but the terrifying energy overflowing from the spiritual realm is invisible.

However, it quickly became tangible.

"Trees, trees are alive?!" Master Yi has been living in the paradise-like Wuji Village, and this is the first time he has seen a strange sight, which is actually not uncommon in Ionia in recent years.

He saw that the dead trees and branches that had been burned to death by the fire were like zombies, twisting and squirming and straightening their bodies in the sky filled with sparks.

And those flowers, plants and trees that had not been burned by the fire and still had fresh life, also quickly withered and withered in the invisible air of death, and died lifelessly——

Die, and then "live" again.

Those dead tree trunks, branches, vines, flowers and plants are all growing crazily in a weird and twisted posture.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reading recently to catch up on books, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]

The huge tree trunk twisted violently and twisted to form a giant. The roots of shrubs and grass broke out of the earth and climbed onto it to form pieces of skin, and the accompanying soil and gravel formed muscles. Dark vines snaked and crawled.

, the longitude and latitude are intertwined on the surface of that living thing, like rhythmic blood vessels.

Its size is extremely huge, perhaps dozens of meters high.

Standing in front of everyone, it looks like a hill made of dead trees and rotten vines.

However, this "mountain" is alive.

This kind of monster is called "tree spirit" or "forest spirit" by the Ionians - of course, to be more precise, it should be a corrupted forest spirit.

And its image and positioning are closer to the ghosts that trees turn into after death. It's more like calling it a "tree demon".

"Don't be stunned, take action!" Kennan shouted and ran out in the flash of lightning.

His short yordle figure was as small as a squirrel in front of humans in front of the huge tree spirit.

But this is actually an advantage.

The tree spirit sensed the approach of this "electrified little squirrel". It waved thousands of tentacles made of vines and branches, and struck down on Kenan's head with an overwhelming force.

However, Kenan relied on his flexible and petite body and the acceleration of lightning magic to move around and dodge among the huge tentacles that fell one after another.

It wasn't until he was approaching the tree spirit's feet that he jumped into the air and suddenly jumped high into the sky:

"Secret truth! Wan Lei Tian Lao Yin!"

Endless thunder and lightning power erupted from Kenan's body, releasing a deadly lightning storm in all directions.

It was like a spherical firework made of thunder and lightning exploded in the sky. The huge ball of lightning swallowed up half of the tree spirit's body, causing the huge beast to let out a shocking howl in pain.

At this time, Shen also took action.

He quickly jumped forward and charged forward. Although the soul blade was not in his hand, it was suspended behind him like a loyal comrade, guarding around him.

The vine tentacles surrounding Shen from all directions tried to stop his attack, but all they could see was the aura of the Soul Blade surrounding Shen's body.

As the light flickered, the soul blade actually released a powerful defensive barrier, blocking all incoming enemies from the light curtain.

"Wait for me!" Master Yi also took action.

He flew up to follow Shen's pace, brushed against the Soul Blade's defensive barrier, and rushed to the tree spirit with him.

Yi exerted all his strength on his Wuji Secret Technique, pouring all the magical energy absorbed from the spiritual realm into the blade, causing the blade to continue to "grow" and actually sprouted a magical sword glow that was several meters long.

"Alpha Strikes!"

Master Yi held the "ten-meter sword" high and slashed at the giant beast in front of him with all his strength.

Shen also used his sword skills to control the soul blade, causing it to pierce the tree spirit's head that shimmered with magic light.

"Ah ah ah -" the tree spirit howled miserably in pain.

And this also makes it even crazier.

The twisted branches and vines that made up its body were surging like giant waves, roaring towards everyone who came close to it.

Dan Shen, Kainan, Master Yi, and the members of the Hejian Cult...

Even Akali, who was so weak that she could only give this giant beast a pedicure, rushed towards it risking her own life.

...

After a fierce battle, the giant beast collapsed while howling.

The thousands of branches and vines that made up its body broke away in an instant and scattered into a pool of lifeless dead branches and leaves on the ground.

"Win, win?" Master Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh..."

"Doesn't it seem to be that powerful?" Looking at the tree spirit that had turned into a pile of dead branches, he sighed in a very ignorant way.

But Kennan said seriously: "No, this is just the beginning."

"Huh?" Master Yi was slightly stunned.

Hasn't the evil spirit been hacked to death...Why is it still just starting?

"No, the evil spirit never dies. What you kill is only its incarnation in the physical realm." Kennan explained: "As long as the corrupt evil spirit still inhabits another realm, the twisted monster can continue to be reshaped.

physical body."

"Just like this-"

Master Yi followed Kenan's instructions and took a closer look:

Sure enough, the giant tree spirit he had just killed was squirming and "breathing" again.

The dead branches and rotten vines that spread out from its body gradually regained their vitality and began to squirm like maggots towards the tree spirit's body.

Obviously, this monster is gradually resurrecting.

"This..." Master Yi's scalp felt numb.

This thing can't be killed, so how can we fight?!

"This has to be left to us." Shen said: "Means in the material realm can never kill an evil spirit."
To be continued...
