Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

Zhang Chen mobilized some of his recovered energy and blood to transform into a pair of blood-red wings behind him. He flapped them gently and arrived at the top of a big tree. He looked around and then flew towards the place where the light was coming from.

It was very quiet here and Zhang Chen didn't hit anything while flying.

Looking at the ground, one can see countless white bones of sea beasts. The whole place seems to be made up of piles of bones, which makes Zhang Chen's scalp tingle, especially the bottom layer, where the bones have turned into dust.

"It seems that all the sea beasts that entered the sea eye died here."

Zhang Chen began to guess secretly.

As he got closer to the place where the light was coming from, Zhang Chen felt that the spiritual energy around him was becoming more and more dense, and it contained more of the breath of the origin of life.

But Zhang Chen had a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, as if there was some hidden danger waiting for him ahead. The closer he got, the more uneasy he became.

After flying for another stick of incense, Zhang Chen arrived one mile away from the source of the light. He saw the object that emitted the light clearly and was dumbfounded.

A towering tree stood in the center. There were no green leaves on its branches. It was so high that it had already entered the gray mist. Its diameter was nearly hundreds of feet. It was transparent and emitted a soft light. If you got close to it, you could feel a fresh breath from the tree. Taking a breath of it would make you feel refreshed.

At the same time, Zhang Chen noticed the big tree. There were dozens of crystal clear fruits hanging on the outstretched branches. The breath of the origin of life was emanating from these fruits.

"Is this the legendary tree of life?"

Zhang Chen looked at the big tree in front of him and couldn't help but cry out.

Then Zhang Chen couldn't hold back any longer, and flapped his wings and moved closer to the big tree.

However, Zhang Chen did not notice that countless roots as thin as hair emerged from the ground. Each root was as black as ink, and all of them seemed to have eyes, swaying slightly towards Zhang Chen.

Soon Zhang Chen approached the tree which was a hundred feet tall. Looking at the huge creature in front of him, Zhang Chen was very surprised. He looked around carefully and found nothing unusual, so he went towards a fruit on the branch.

Soon the fruit was within reach. Ten feet away, Zhang Chen could clearly see the liquid flowing inside the fruit. It was similar to the essence of life he took, and seemed to be even more pure. Zhang Chen took a breath and instantly felt that the injuries in his body had improved a little. He swallowed, then stretched out his hand, condensed a palm of qi and blood, and prepared to pick the next one.

But at this moment, Zhang Chen suddenly felt a sense of crisis. His spiritual sense detected that something like dense black silk threads came out from the ground and came towards Zhang Chen like a big net. The speed was so fast that it surrounded Zhang Chen in an instant.

Zhang Chen was shocked and his face changed drastically. The excitement he had just had was gone. There was nothing here just now. Now facing the huge net composed of black beards all over the sky, Zhang Chen could only mobilize his limited energy and blood to form a shield around him to resist.

Soon the black beard came closer and observed Zhang Chen's blood and qi shield, seeming to be curious. After a moment, the black beard suddenly covered the blood and qi shield.

Then Zhang Chen felt that the energy and blood on the energy and blood shield was losing rapidly. The shield became thinner and then broke at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhang Chen's heart was shaken, knowing that his Qi and blood shield might not be able to hold out for long, but he did not expect it to happen in this way. Looking at the black beard approaching him, Zhang Chen frantically mobilized his spiritual power, and then more than a dozen fireballs as big as heads appeared around Zhang Chen, circling around him.

When the blackbeards saw the sudden appearance of the fireball, they instinctively shrank back, as if they had a natural fear of fire.

But they did not retreat far and still surrounded Zhang Chen tightly. Zhang Chen relaxed a little when he saw that they were afraid of the fireball. However, looking at the black-bearded people who surrounded him tightly, Zhang Chen still looked heavy.

But they didn't dare to attack them with fireballs, for fear that they might not be hurt but angered instead, which would be very bad.

"But it's not good for me to keep surrounding them like this. They can afford it, but I can't."

Zhang Chen looked anxious. He looked at the fruit that was so close at hand and made up his mind.

"Fight."

Zhang Chen's mind moved, and he instantly controlled five fireballs to fly towards the black beard surrounding him on the left. When they were about to get close, they suddenly exploded, sparking sparks over ten feet away.

The moment the sparks rose, the black beards instinctively dodged at a high speed, immediately revealing a gap, and Zhang Chen also saw the crystal clear fruit.

Then the spiritual power in his body was output crazily, and dozens of fireballs appeared around Zhang Chen immediately, and then all exploded. The black beard surrounding Zhang Chen immediately scattered and avoided.

Zhang Chen seized this fleeting opportunity, flapped his wings, and instantly came to the fruit. He picked the fruit off with one hand and at the same time condensed dozens of fireballs around him again. They exploded immediately. Then there was a loud bang under his feet and he performed Explosive Steps. At the same time, his spiritual power surged, and he performed the Moon Chasing Stars body movement. Then he flapped his wings vigorously. With the superposition of multiple factors, Zhang Chen instantly flew dozens of feet forward.

Just when Zhang Chen thought he was about to escape, there was a sudden shock in the air, and the big tree suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Then the earth shook, and hundreds of tree whiskers came out. These tree whiskers were different from the previous ones. They were more than ten times thicker, and they were all transparent and emitted brilliant light.

Then he chased after Zhang Chen, his speed was several times faster than before, and he was extremely agile.

It caught up with Zhang Chen almost instantly and then wrapped around Zhang Chen's body.

Zhang Chen thought he could escape, but he didn't expect this accident to happen. He immediately turned left and right, flew up and down, and threw out countless fireballs at the same time, trying to get rid of the entanglement of these roots.

However, those roots were unusual and had no reaction to the fireball. They did not dodge or evade, but went straight through the fireball. They also took advantage of the time when Zhang Chen cast other spells to slow down to instantly close the distance with Zhang Chen, and then directly wrapped around Zhang Chen's feet.

After his legs were tied up, the tree whiskers straightened up and exerted force, causing Zhang Chen's flying speed to slow down and his feet to be pulled painfully. Seeing this, Zhang Chen immediately used the Golden Sword Slash technique to condense a golden sword and chopped it down fiercely at the tree whiskers.

He thought it would be a piece of cake, but the tree's whiskers were surprisingly hard. The golden sword made a sound of metal and stone when it hit the tree's whiskers, and only a tiny mark was left. Zhang Chen increased his chopping speed and finally almost cut it off, but a golden light flashed on the tree's whiskers, and the gap was immediately restored to its original state.

Zhang Chen's face turned pale as he watched countless golden leaves entwining around him. He knew he couldn't escape. Then he looked at the spiritual fruit in his hand, and without caring about anything else, he gritted his teeth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Countless golden tree whiskers tied Zhang Chen up like a dumpling, and then pulled Zhang Chen to the middle of the tree, where a human face suddenly appeared. Through the tree whiskers, the face observed Zhang Chen cautiously.

It is none other than the consciousness of the Tree of Life. After hundreds of thousands of years, the Tree of Life has already developed consciousness. However, it is much more difficult for the spirits of plants and trees to transform into human form than for ordinary creatures. However, their lives are also much longer. Now that it is able to transform into human form, it still cannot do without its original body.
