Although the bleeding was stopped and the strange monster was destroyed, Yatsuya still showed no signs of awakening.

Roger carried him on his shoulder, and there was no special smell in the passage, except that something could occasionally be seen squirming in the walls.

Roger checked Yaga's physical condition, and there was not much damage except for his arm, but he tried but couldn't wake him up.

There was no obvious light source, but in the downward passage, Roger could still see his surroundings.

After a few distances down the winding passage, Roger stopped and a fork in the road diverged in either direction.

One of them flattened out, and the other still seemed to continue down.

"Uma." Roger called.

A mass of something branched out of Roger's shadow, then swelled rapidly, transforming into Uma.

Uma stopped in front of the downward fork in the road.

"In terms of the distribution of energy, if we continue to go down, we are likely to be in danger."

She turned her back to Roger, and Roger naturally couldn't see the change in the expression on Uma's face at this time.

"This path leads deep underground, and it may not be the place you're looking for."

After a long time, Uma suddenly turned around and replied.

"Okay, then we'll choose another one."

Roger naturally didn't doubt it and walked in first.

The expression on Umma's face changed, and the next moment it disappeared like smoke and then merged into Roger's shadow.

The constraints of the contract are still in place, and Uma can't take the initiative to do anything to hurt Roger, but there are loopholes in any rules.

At this time, Uma remembered the conversation with the mountain maiden again.

"You don't know?"

Uma didn't believe that the Mountain Maiden would be unaware of what had happened after she had led Roger to where she wanted to be.

"Well, all I can tell you is that doing it is good for that Roger, not bad."

"He won't be in any danger to his life, and he will even get stronger because of it."

"What better option to help him and give you real freedom?"

Uma had to admit that she was really shaken.

But at the same time, she knows one thing, there are many times, even if the beginning and direction of things point to a perfect ending.

But the end result can still be unsatisfactory.

Good intentions can also do bad things.

Shrinking back into Roger's shadow, she felt an inexplicable peace of mind, but at the same time, the deep desire for freedom was also restless.

Roger followed Umma's instructions to another passage, and this time he had not gone far before he heard some small sounds.

It sounds like something that countless people are talking about.

Then he turned a corner, and his vision suddenly widened.

At the end of the line of sight, Roger saw a blooming flower.

Or a tree, or rather.

It is called the Everdark Flower, but at this time, the height of the plant in front of you is even higher than a house, and the stems reflect a metallic luster, and the top buds bloom.

The slender petals stretched out, there was no wind around, but all the petals were swaying and waving, in fact, it was an extremely strange scene, but for some reason, Roger could feel a special beauty in front of this plant.

It's as if its existence is completely in line with the ultimate imagination of the most beautiful things in a person's heart.

With a pang in his heart, Roger contemplated, and the power of the Ardennes Seal was released, and he felt that his brain was much clearer.

Holding his breath, he planted a layer of spiritual power on the surface of his body for defense, but as he approached, even if he didn't breathe, Roger could still feel that his whole person was wrapped in aroma.

This does not come from the sense of smell, but a direct reflection of the spirit.

At this moment, Yaga's Jianjiao, who was carried by Roger's shoulder, suddenly twitched, and then, a little light penetrated into Yaga's eyebrows.

"Uh......"

Yachiya opened his eyes with a muffled snort.

"You're awake." Roger stepped aside and placed Yatsuya on the ground, leaning against a large boulder behind him.

Yatsuya struggled for a moment, but he soon discovered the abnormality in his body.

"What's going on...... My hand......?! ”

"You've been affected by that weird thing."

At that time, it was impossible for him to subdue Yatsuya Kenkaku unscathed.

"I remember."

Yatsuya raised his head.

"That thing can snoop on people's hearts, and I can't get out of it."

"But I remember, there was no fight between me and him, when did my hand break?"

He looked at Roger.

Roger's face was blank, "You are controlled by that thing, there is no way, I can only cut off your arm." ”

At the end he added.

"Don't thank me."

Roger saved himself, and Yaga wanted to say thank you, but when he looked down at his bare shoulders, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Compared to the injuries on his body, he was more concerned about Roger defeating him.

"What the hell is going on?" Roger spoke.

"Not long after I took to the sky, the scenery around me changed a little, and I tried to fall to meet you, only to find that there was no way to find you."

"I can only go all the way."

"I made a lot of guesswork along the way, and everything went surprisingly well, and it didn't take long to get here."

"Then I saw the tree, or the so-called Constant Dark Flower."

A hint of gloom flashed across Yatsuya's face, "There are people in this world who know yourself better than you. ”

He seemed to have thought of something, "A lot of problems go straight to the heart, and once you start, it's really hard to get rid of." ”

Roger knows that there is always a loophole in the heart of Yaga, who looks flawless.

Because of this, the two of them entered the maple grove together, and Yatsuya Jianjiao would be more susceptible to influence, and then come here before Roger and be controlled.

He stood up, because he was a little unaccustomed to losing his arm at this time, but although he looked badly injured, after returning to Hanchuan, there were many ways to regenerate his limbs.

Yatsuya walked forward.

"The combat power of that thing itself is also equivalent to the fourth order, and when I saw him, that ugly body was entrenched in the Flower of Constant Darkness."

"As soon as we met, he asked me a question."

Yatsuya glanced back at Roger.

"You want to pluck this flower to save your father, oh...... It turned out that he wanted to prove himself. ”

"Just one sentence broke through my psychological defense, and then all my thoughts were captured, and there were more and more things missing in my heart."

"By the time I realized it, it was too late to leave."

Yatsuya said.

"You know, he's the only creature in the maple forest, and everything else is bewitched by him, and he stays here forever."

"What is he?" Roger asked.

"Something that grows with this flower."

"A quirky hybrid."

"Come on, we've got to figure it out, this thing is too big."

Yatsukaku stabilized his body and slowly approached the Flower of Constant Darkness.

Roger also stepped forward, as Yagashi said, the approval from the Jackdaw Sword Master was his only obsession.

Or rather, demons.

"Did Mr. Morita tell you how to take this thing?" Roger asked.

"What he said was very simple, pull out the soil and paste the talisman into the box, and bring it back."

The two glanced at each other, and when this simple operation process was faced with the tree-like flowers, there was an inexplicable sense of joy.

"Shall we give it a try?"

Roger laughed.

"Come on."

Yatsuya glanced at his bare arm.

Roger didn't answer, but spread his hands.

The spiritual power burrowed deep into the earth, and soon, the entire plant shook with it, and Yatsuya Kenjiao retreated a few steps back.

The ground trembled, the dirt flew, and the eerie roots were brought out by Roger.

The two looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

The so-called Constant Dark Flower, the part buried deep in the soil, is exactly the same as the exposed flower.

The split petals wriggled and waved in midair, and at the same time, from the rolling dirt, a large stream of extremely pure energy poured out!

Roger felt as if he was in a vortex of energy.

This energy is so pure, as if there is no trace of impurities, and there is a sound behind him.

Roger looked back and saw that the originally broken arm of Yatsura Jianjiao had grown and recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He thought of Michihiro Morita's description of the Flower of Everdarkness.

Through yin and yang, ditch life and death.

Immediately after Roger's body shook slightly, the cat appeared uncontrollably in mid-air, and those pure energy spontaneously poured into the body of the guardian spirit.

This does not come from devouring the spirits, but is an extremely natural absorption.

Roger saw that at the cat's tail, the eighth tail had changed from illusory to solidified until it was fully formed.

At this stage, the change was still not over, and I don't know how long it took for Roger to return to the Guardian Spirit.

The strength in his body skyrocketed, and Roger felt that it didn't seem to be far away from the Nine-Tails.

Behind him was the Yatsuya Kenkaku floating in mid-air.

In addition to recovering from his severed limbs and injuries, the strength fluctuations in his body have also increased by a few points, and he has obviously gained a lot of benefits.

The Flower of Constant Darkness floated in mid-air, and the energy no longer gushed out from the ground, and Yachija opened his hand, a talisman in the wind.

Wrapping around the rhizome of the Constant Dark Flower, the Constant Dark Flower, which was originally as thick as a big tree, shrank at an extremely fast speed.

Soon the size of the normal flower was restored.

Yatsuya clapped his hands, a black wooden box opened, flowers were pulled into it, and everything returned to normal.

"It's just a little bit of energy that escapes that can actually help the two of us take a big step forward in strength."

"I'm afraid the energy contained in the flowers is even more terrifying."

"If we had been a little bit later, that strange thing might have fused itself with the Constant Dark Flower and absorbed all of its energy, thus evolving into a whole new species."

"At that point, we're afraid we won't be able to do anything." Yatsuya sighed.

"Is it possible that these energies originally belonged to him?" Another thought popped into Roger's mind.

"This thing may be in the process of metamorphosis and is at a very critical stage."

Yatsuya Jianjiao thought for a moment, "It's indeed possible. He was about to say something more, but at that moment the ground suddenly trembled, and then the scenery around him changed.

There is no such thing as the sky falling apart, but the actual effect is excessive.

And I feel that the energy around me has become extremely disordered, and something seems to be bursting out and transmitting deep underground.

"Let's go, we need to get out of here!"

"Whether it's the flower or the weird monster, their presence is the key to this entire area."

The two of them went as fast as they went, returning the way they came, and as they rushed out of the cavern, the chaotic energy reached its peak, and there was a muffled thunder explosion in the void, and a clear crack appeared in the towering giant tree.

The maple forest that could not be seen before has also disappeared, and when you fly into the air, you can clearly see the scenery in the distance.

In the maple forest, tree trunks burst, dark red plasma splattered everywhere, and a terrible scream came from the broken trunks.

Such a drastic change naturally attracted the attention of other eyes.

Roger saw that in the extreme distance, there were many strange figures approaching here.

"Follow me!"

The robes on Yatsuya's body had already been damaged during the battle, and in fact, as the only living creatures in the entire area, Roger and the others had no way to hide their bodies in this situation.

Yatsuya Jianjiao simply stopped camouflaging, and if they didn't want to be surrounded by the monsters around them, they needed to leave the maple forest and the surrounding area in the shortest possible time.

Roger sighed, he had just had a similar experience a few days ago.

The two of them rushed forward and one after the other, the speed was pushed to the limit, the changes under their feet were still going on, the scenery flew by, and the two rushed out of the maple forest.

There were several monsters pounced on him, and the arms of Yachi's horns were spread, and the crisp sound of birdsong came, and many monsters were cut off before they could get close, and when they landed, they had been cut into even pieces of meat.

"To get to the Black Tower, we'll have to get out of here via teleportation."

As soon as he made his move, Jian Jiao immediately noticed the changes in his body, and the later he went, the more obvious the changes in his spiritual power became.

The pure power he had absorbed not long ago had been completely transformed into a part of himself.

An unprecedented power surged over him, and he raised his head to the sky and roared, and the sound had turned into the chirping of a three-legged crow when it reached the distance.

Roger didn't need to make a move after Yachika.

Without encountering much resistance, he escaped from the initial encirclement and suppression, and the speed of Jianjiao slowed down significantly, and he fell from the sky, the aura on his body converged, and soon his vitality faded, becoming nothing.

"We're going back to where the Black Tower is from the other direction."

Jianjiao explained, and Roger put on his hood and followed closely.

The second half of the race went surprisingly well, time passed, and soon Yatsuya Jianjiao stopped, he took out the disc in his hand, and Roger walked forward.

The Black Tower, upside-down in the unreal, appears.

Walking into it, Jianjiao activates the energy nodes in it, and when the energy subsides, there is a sound around it.

They returned to Mingsha City again.

"It's finally safe."

Walking out of the Black Tower, Yachija Jianjiao relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, a voice came from the sky: "Sure enough, it's here." ”

"Do it!"

Roger looked up and saw a bright red tengu mask.
