Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

"Li Ming, this time I have increased the speed of absorbing energy by more than two hours." Yun Shan breathed a sigh of relief, her face filled with satisfaction and joy, and she looked exceptionally refreshed.

Then, she took out the third pure wood element crystal core that was shining with emerald green light and prepared to continue absorbing it.

Li Ming stared at Yunshan, a hint of doubt flashing across his deep eyes.

After a brief hesitation, he asked the question in his mind. "Yunshan, did you feel anything unusual while absorbing energy? For example, did you feel sleepy or want to sleep?"

"Ah? No." Yunshan answered naturally, and asked with some curiosity, "Why do you ask that?"

"Well... nothing." Li Ming responded vaguely, not knowing how to explain.

Since Yunshan was not affected at all, he decided to discuss this matter after returning, so as not to distract her by mentioning it now. "Just continue to concentrate on absorbing energy."

"Uh, okay." Yunshan noticed that Li Ming seemed to be a little worried, but he didn't say it out loud, so she didn't ask too much.

Moreover, the most important task at present is to concentrate on absorbing the crystal core to complete the transformation of the physical body, and other things should be put aside.

In the following time, Li Ming was almost always fighting against the constant attacks of sleepiness. It seemed that there was an elusive mysterious force that was trying to drag him into a deep dream.

Is it really because of over-fatigue? He thought to himself, but quickly dismissed the idea.

Thinking back to when he was clearing the Withered Blood Domain, he fought for dozens of hours without feeling any obvious fatigue, let alone tiredness.

This irresistible tiredness was clearly felt only after he came here.

Thinking of this, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed through his mind and his heart trembled violently.

That's right, fatigue came upon him quietly after he arrived here.

It seems that the root of the problem can only be hidden in the mysterious girl and the Tree of Life!

Li Ming's solemn gaze lingered between the mysterious girl and the Tree of Life. If the root of the problem was indeed with them, then what was the intention?

He pondered for a moment, but still had no clue.

However, after figuring out the crux of the problem, his uneasiness was slightly relieved.

Although the mysterious girl's true identity could not be revealed, at least she had no ill will towards them, otherwise she would not have been able to keep touching Yunshan.

As for the Tree of Life, he also couldn't think of any reason why it would be against him.

After pondering for a while, Li Ming stood up and walked slowly towards the Tree of Life.

He came to the majestic tree trunk that was like a wooden wall, slowly stretched out his palm, and gently touched its rough bark.

Suddenly, a faint murmur echoed in his mind.

Although he could not accurately understand the specific meaning of these sounds, he could deeply feel the pleading and urgency contained in them.

The Tree of Life seemed to be sending him a message for help?

Just as he was getting confused, a stronger feeling of sleepiness suddenly came over him.

He quickly loosened his hand that was tightly holding the Tree of Life and subconsciously took a few steps back.

As the hand left, the faint murmur that had been echoing in my mind also quietly disappeared.

Li Ming let out a long breath, and then he moved and flew hundreds of meters away.

Sure enough, after leaving the canopy of the Tree of Life, the nagging feeling of drowsiness subsided significantly.

Judging from the current situation, the Tree of Life is obviously facing a serious crisis, otherwise it would not have forcibly pulled him into the dream to seek help.

Considering that the Tree of Life is the cornerstone of the Fantasy Ancient Forest, its importance is self-evident.

The fantasy ancient forest is also a treasure land for them to obtain high-level wood element crystal cores.

Therefore, even if it was just to obtain the elemental crystal core, he should lend a helping hand...

Li Ming hesitated for a moment. Finally, after taking a deep breath, he walked to the Tree of Life again and gently placed his palms on the rough bark.

This time, he no longer resisted the drowsiness that was sweeping over him, and allowed his mind to slowly sink.

Just as his mind began to become confused, the scene before him suddenly changed.

The originally bright starry sky and night sky were swallowed up by a deep blood-red, as if the whole world was bathed in scarlet.

Countless wood elemental creatures, most of which were tree-man warriors holding weapons, united around a dim tree of life, fighting desperately to resist the endless and surging black shadow monsters.

The shadow monsters made sharp and piercing cries like ghosts, which intertwined with the passionate battle cries of the wood elemental creatures, forming a thrilling symphony.

Li Ming snorted coldly and instantly deployed the Thunder Field.

In an instant, gray-purple thunder surged out like a tide, dyeing the entire world with its color.

The sky seemed to be torn apart, and endless violent thunder poured down on the black shadow monsters like an angry dragon.

The power of thunder danced in the night sky, carrying the power to destroy everything, blasting the black shadow monsters into pieces.

The entire battlefield seemed to have turned into a sea of ​​thunder. Li Ming transformed into the Holy Angel of Thunder, holding a thunder sword and galloping across the battlefield.

Wherever it went, the black shadow monsters quickly melted and dissipated like snowflakes encountering the scorching sun, and nothing could stop its edge.

After an unknown amount of time of killing, the tide of darkness was finally defeated. The Tree of Life seemed to have broken free from its shackles and gained a chance to breathe, and the breath of life slowly revived.

The elemental creatures were all delighted and cheered in unison when they saw this scene.

But at this moment, Li Ming, who had not had time to catch his breath, suddenly felt an unbearable huge pressure.

The thunder realm collapsed and disintegrated instantly in the face of this force, and the entire world fell into deep darkness.

Apart from the faint light emitted by the slightly flickering Tree of Life and wood elemental creatures, there was no longer a trace of light in the outside world, which had been swallowed up by the endless night.

"This pressure... is so familiar..." There was an indescribable tremor in Li Ming's voice. His body seemed to be pulled by some force and he involuntarily walked towards the dark world outside.

Seeing this, the wood elemental creature nearby hurriedly waved its branches to try to grab him, trying its best to prevent him from leaving the protection of the Tree of Life.

But Li Ming already knew the identity of the visitor, and his face was as calm as water, with hardly a ripple.

After gently breaking free from the obstruction of the tree people, he resolutely stepped into the endless darkness.

The moment his footsteps stepped into the darkness, the Tree of Life and the wood elemental creatures behind him suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Looking around, up, down, left, and right, all I can see is eternal darkness.

Faced with all this, Li Ming felt neither happy nor sad, he just continued to move forward calmly.
