Five Elements Heaven - Chapter 705 Strange place

The rocks under his feet were bitingly cold, and Ai Hui felt like he was walking on a polar ice sheet. .

How long have you been gone? he does not know.

The passage of time seems strange, like a meandering stream in a valley, elusive. Ai Hui’s precise judgment of time became blurred here.

After trying several times to no avail, Ai Hui no longer wasted his efforts in vain.

Not only was it impossible to judge the time, but also the direction. There were no stars or moon above our heads, and there were no features on the terrain that we could learn from. The cold rock is barren and desolate, without any trace of life.

Ai Hui has traveled extensively to see the world, but he has never heard of a place like this.

There was no vegetation, no insects or ants, no energy fluctuations, not even wind. There is nothing but black rocks as cold as ice, so desolate that they are almost nothingness.

How strange.

He could only move forward aimlessly.

I don’t know how long it took, but a glimmer of light appeared in front of me.

Ai Hui, who was walking in a hazy state, suddenly became energetic.

It’s like an exhausted traveler who has been trudging all night in the dark and sees the first ray of morning light on the distant horizon. Nothing is more morale-boosting and exciting than this glimmer of light.

The sudden excitement was like a force injected into his body, and all fatigue was swept away.

Ai Hui sped up and ran towards the light with all his strength. He felt like he was faster than a cheetah, like a gust of wind,

The surroundings became brighter and brighter, and darkness and nothingness gradually left him behind. At this moment, Ai Hui had an illusion, as if he was crossing the boundary between yin and yang.

Suddenly, he stopped and looked down at his feet. A touch of delicate green came into view.

It was a very ordinary grass growing on black rocks.

Ai Hui looked at it carefully and found that this grass seedling was nothing special, just like a weed that could be seen everywhere. The only slightly unusual thing is that it is not rooted in the cracks of the rock, but breaks out of the rock and grows directly on the rock. But in fact, this is nothing special. There are many plants that use rocks as nutrients, and Ai Hui has seen many of them. Some plants can also turn hard iron rocks into soft silt.

Ai Hui tried to call out the name of the grass seedling accurately. Thanks to his experience in the wilderness, he was half an expert in identifying plants.

Several names flashed through his mind one by one, but he rejected them one by one. At first glance, they seem familiar, but upon closer inspection, the characteristics are not clear.

Ai Hui shook his head, it was probably a new grass species, he wasn’t sure.

He quickly put this trivial doubt behind him. Being able to see the existence of life in this endless dark and barren wasteland was undoubtedly a great inspiration to him.

Ai Hui quickened his pace and moved forward.

There is more and more green around, and it is getting brighter and brighter. Ai Hui was a little confused as to where the light came from. There was still an endless dark void without the sun, moon, or stars above his head.

What a strange place.

Ai Hui muttered in his heart for unknown times.

As we continue to move forward, the sparse green grass becomes more and more dense, and it is difficult to see the large black rocks exposed. The terrain began to undulate and was no longer an endless plain.

The variety of plants began to increase, and he even found a bush.

It was a fluffy and bright bush, resembling a blood-stained red dog’s tail, about as high as Ai Hui’s waist. There are no weeds within half a foot of where it grows, and the black rocks are exposed, making it extremely eye-catching among the rolling alpine meadows.

Ai Hui noticed it from far away.

Another plant he had never seen before.

The hollow heart-shaped leaves are slightly larger than a fingernail and bulge like red balloons. The stems are very slender like silk. Ai Hui wondered if the red heart-shaped leaves would fly up into the sky like balloons and float far away if the branches were broken.

He tried to break a filament, but unfortunately the blade did not fly into the sky, but disappeared without a trace like a burst of bubbles.

A bush that looks like a balloon?

What a strange shrub.

Ai Hui shook his head, he was too lazy to think about it.

There’s something weird here everywhere.

Just as he was about to move on, he suddenly felt something fall on him. He raised his head, and countless light points sprinkled down from the endless void above his head. They came from the end of the night with a faint light.

The vision suddenly turned white, like a sudden heavy snowfall.

Ai Hui subconsciously stretched out his palm, and little bits of light fell into his palm.

The ball of light is the size of a grain of rice, emitting a soft light. It does not feel cold at all when it falls into the palm of your hand. Instead, it feels slightly warm and indescribably comfortable.

Ai Hui seemed to have an inexplicable attraction to light groups. The light groups within a few feet around him floated toward him, forming a weak vortex. The glimmer of light fell on him and disappeared instantly, while a weak warmth flowed into his body.

Snap, snap, snap.

A dense explosion sounded not far away.

Ai Hui was alerted and quickly followed the sound. I saw the balloon-like leaves of the red bush exploding one after another, turning into delicate and bright red mouths. The silk-like slender branches dance wildly, and these small red mouths deftly capture the falling light. They are like a swarm of dancing snakes, swift and precise, and what is even more surprising is that there is no interference between the filaments.

They are so greedy and hungry, as if they have been waiting for a long time.

The red bush that was fluffy and cute just now suddenly became eerie and scary.

Not only the shrubs, but also the lush, carpet-like grass on the ground seemed to have changed their appearance at this time, becoming ferocious. The green grass blades fluttered crazily, like fanatical arms desperately grabbing the falling light.

The quiet and peaceful alpine pasture suddenly became violent and strange, like a herd of beasts smelling the smell of blood.

The heavy snow didn’t last long, lasting about twenty breaths and then disappeared. It came without warning and ended just as neatly.

Suddenly, Ai Hui’s vision returned to clarity. The pasture that had been crazy and bloodthirsty just now had returned to the same quiet and peaceful state as before, and the strange shrubs became fluffy and cute again. Everything changed so fast that Ai Hui even wondered if it was his imagination. It was so fast that it was like waking up from a dream before it could even begin.

Ai Hui felt an inexplicable chill in his heart.

The scene just now was not an illusion or a dream.

The shrubs not far away are a little taller, and the grass underfoot is a little thicker.

Just twenty short breaths ago.

What a strange place.

Ai Hui glanced around, secretly alerting himself.

Although the crazy appearance of the grass and shrubs made him feel a little nervous, he also benefited a lot. He could feel his steps becoming lighter and warm currents flowing through his body. When he digests and absorbs these warm currents, his strength will reach a higher level.

He didn’t stop and decided to move on.

We encountered more and more new plants along the way, wildflowers of various colors, and grasslands began to appear. The originally monotonous grassland began to become colorful. Ai Hui couldn’t name those wild flowers, but he didn’t pay much attention.

As we go deeper, shrubs become ubiquitous. Their shapes were all kinds of strange and there were so many types, which opened Ai Hui’s eyes. He rarely saw two identical bushes; each one seemed unique.

During this period, Ai Hui encountered three more heavy snows.

The three heavy snows are also very different. Some are crystal blue, some are gem-like green, and one is faint red. The intervals between the three heavy snows were completely irregular, and they lasted for different lengths of time. The longest one lasts for more than forty breaths, while the shortest one is the green one, which ends after only seven breaths.

Ai Hui didn’t know what these light groups were, but it was obvious that these strange heavy snows were the root of nourishing this strange land.

Anyway, there is something weird all around.

The surroundings are no longer monotonous grasslands. Towering trees, brightly colored vines and scattered shrubs can be seen everywhere. But Ai Hui, who is well-informed, doesn’t recognize any of them. Their shapes are all kinds of strange and different.

Some trees are as straight as swords, and their trunks are shining with silver, like giant swords pointing straight into the sky. The leaves are like white clouds, misty.

The branches of some trees are as soft as snakes and curled up into coils. Only when the heavy snow arrives will they unfold and form large nets.

Ai Hui has now determined that except for the green grass at the edge, there will never be two identical plants.

The bizarre world in front of him gave Ai Hui a strong sense of unreality.

He had never heard of such a place. Perhaps the world in front of him should appear in a fairy tale.

It’s a pity that he is obviously not in the fairy tale, because this world is not only bizarre, but also full of dangers.

More dangerous than the wilderness.

Ai Hui walked carefully on the rocks. The black rocks that he hated before have now become his favorite things. Even the biting coldness now made him feel at ease.

The green grass that used to be endless is almost extinct here.

Ai Hui has understood that the plants here seem to have evolved with only one purpose, which is to capture the snowflakes falling from the sky, which are their food. In this area, grass cannot survive, and plants with weirder shapes and larger sizes are the winners.

Ai Hui soon realized that they were the winners not just because they were larger, but because their predating skills were more amazing.

Ai Hui witnessed with his own eyes how a vine with blood-ringed stripes strangled a brown shrub with feather-like leaves and a gurgling sound. The vines with circles of blood-colored stripes are like a krait, and they are flexibly wrapped around the brown shrubs. The leaves of the dwarf trees are like knives, inserted into the bloody markings of the vines. Red blood-like sap gurgled out from the vines and was swallowed up by the leaves of the dwarf trees. But the blood ring vines still slowly and firmly wrapped around the trunk, and they continued to tighten until they were deeply entangled in the trunk.

The dwarf trees trembled and made strange and rapid sounds. More and more leaves penetrated the blood ring vines, swallowing the vine juice.

The blood ring vines grew tighter and tighter, and were deeply embedded in the tree trunk. At this moment, the blood ring broke apart. Each blood ring turns into a seed and begins to germinate crazily.

In this struggle, the superior Blood Ring Vine finally won. The dwarf tree fell down and became a pile of delicious food.

Blood ring vines also become golden ring vines.

It targeted Ai Hui.
