He led them into the depths of the hollow, where there was no more light, and it was pitch black.

Everyone could only listen to the footsteps of others, and groped their hands for the cave wall to move forward. Fortunately, all around it is dry and warm wood, and the air is filled with the smell of wood.

The ground is gradually rising in a gentle manner, and the direction of the cavern is not straight, but spiraling.

After walking for half an hour, the leading disciple said, "I can only send it here." Ladies and sisters, please remember that this door can be entered but not exited. Once you enter here, you can either use the teleportation jade slip to come out, or you can get the transmission power out, or, after five months of time, you will be automatically kicked out by the transmission tower, and you must not turn back by yourself. Once inside, there are five floors.

"On each floor, there is a teacher who can pass on the exercises, but each person can receive the exercises at most once, because as long as the transmission is completed, they will be kicked out of the immortal tree immediately. Once you leave the Transmission Pagoda, you can't re-enter for one year, and when you re-enter after one year, you still have to pay the tuition from the first floor!"

"It's really a place to eat meat and not spit out bones. Hook pig said.

In the dark, the disciple didn't bother to reply to his run, and he pulled the hidden wooden door in front of him.

Suddenly, fierce sunlight burst out from behind the door, and these people had adapted to the darkness in the dark tree hole, and suddenly returned to the daylight, so bright that they couldn't even open their eyes.

When the pig's eyes gradually adjusted to the day, he realized that it was not very bright outside. They had come in the morning, but it was like dusk.

The sky was covered with patches of golden sunset, and the sun was visibly hiding behind the clouds in the west.

In front of him was a small hill covered with trees, including a wooden hut that seemed to have been built by a logger. A gravel path winded from beneath their feet to the wooden house on the hill. There was a hazy mist in all directions, making it impossible to see the scenery in the distance, but the five-story immortal tree was close behind them.

Its shape has not changed at all, and it still soars into the sky.

And the four of them were standing under the tree right now.

"Why did you come out again?" Hook Pig couldn't help but wonder a little, but the scenery here was very different from the Jade Palace Chuan Gong Yuan they had seen before, and even the time was different.

"We didn't come out. Song Ruhai touched the bark of the Immortal Tree. The shape of the bark's old and cracked bark was completely indistinguishable from the immortal tree they had seen, but it was smoother to the touch, and some light was faintly reflected, "We are inside the tree." And inside—" Song Ruhai knocked on the tree, it was still as solid as before, "It's actually the outside world, the outside world has been replaced into the tree, this is an inversion empty formation." ”

Where they came out, there was even a faint trace of a door.

It's just that the traces are almost all on the tree. And there are no gaps in the whole tree. When the disciples say, "Do not turn back on your own," they mean that they must not try to open this door that does not actually exist.

Hook Pig took a deep breath. The air was filled with the scent of wood, mixed with an abundant wood aura.

The whole immortal tree is like an inflatable leather ball, turning it upside down, the inside becomes the outside, and the outside becomes the inside, then the space inside it will instantly expand to infinity, and the entire outer universe will be instantly packed into its inside. After the hook pig arrived at the Jade Peak, his knowledge rose countless times, but it was also the first time to experience such a magical creation of heaven and earth.

"Hmm...... Strange, my hunting bow is missing!" Wood suddenly realized that the large bow he had been carrying was gone. Did you just drop it on the side of the door?

"It's not lost. Song Ruhai felt his Shenhuo Ding, and found that the connection between him and Shenhuo Ding was nowhere to be found, "My Shenhuo Ding is also gone." Not everything can be brought in here. “

"My jade eagle is gone. But the saber is still there, and the jade slip and pill I just bought are still there. What is not seen should have appeared naturally after leaving the Transmission Tower. ”

The Tower seemed to be carefully selecting what could be entered. In fact, not only was the jade eagle that Hook Pig touched from Zeng Fan's hand gone, but even the underworld orchid seed given to him by the Biluo Holy Maiden couldn't feel it.

He thought to himself, Lao Tzu has already spent so much money, if this tree still embezzles my belongings, I will have to come in and loot this place next time......

There was no one here, only the wooden house was a little angry. The four of them didn't think much about it, and walked straight down the gravel path to the wooden house on the hill.

The wooden house is not big, and it looks very old. It is not a treehouse made of the trees that are common in the Jade Palace, but someone cut down the logs and erected them one by one. Much of the wood had rotted and blackened, and even mushrooms had grown, and some had been replaced with new, brightly colored wood.

Outside the door was an open field, piled up with freshly cut wood, axes, and saws.

Inside the door, on the ground, there was a pile of feather-like curly sawdust.

At the sound of footsteps, an old man looked up, the top of his head was almost bald, but it was not shiny, but like a shriveled pumpkin.

There are still a few sparse white hairs around the head. His face was covered with wrinkles, indistinguishable from old bark. A pair of cloudy yellow eyes seemed to be the only living thing on the face.

"You guys, come to learn swordsmanship?"

He put down the planer in his hand, and a low, hoarse voice came from his throat, the man was clearly a carpenter—a carpenter who had been madly obsessed with woodwork for a long time.

The room is full of wooden parts. There are human hands, human feet, and various organs on the human body, some of which have formed a human form. The old man seems to be not only an obsessive carpenter, but also an avid art lover.

The air was filled with tiny wood chips, and the smell of wood here was more than ten times stronger than outside. Gou Zhu really didn't know how the Jade Palace Gonggong Academy would find a carpenter to teach swordsmanship......

"Swordsmanship?" the fat cow's eyes suddenly lit up.

She really wanted to learn new swordsmanship. "Cloud Piercing Sword Technique" she has memorized it backwards. Although this kind of swordsmanship is broad and profound, and it collects all kinds of strange techniques to defeat the strong with the weak, it is only used for self-defense by beginner disciples after all.

Her sword and her heart were long gone.

"This old master," said to the old man, before the fat cow could continue to speak, and quickly blocked the pig's eyes in front of her, "sorry to disturb me. In fact, we were just passing by and wanted to inquire about how to get to the second floor of this transmission tower. ”

The old man stood up, and there was a whooshing sound from his body.

He's dressed in sawdust — I don't know how he flattened and sewed these curly, paper-like pieces of wood together to make this garment.

If this thing could be counted as clothing.

The old man smelled like rotten wood, and he didn't know how many years he hadn't taken a bath. Obviously, he had been in this immortal tree for too long, and his clothes, if any, had long since become worn.

"If you want to learn swordsmanship," the old man walked a few steps expressionlessly, opened a dilapidated wooden door, pointed to a room, and said, "In the five hundred years of the Jade Palace, there are fifty-seven disciples who have left their swordsmanship experience, plus the collection from the rivers and lakes over the years, a total of two hundred and eighty-seven swordsmanship. You can find the old decay to learn at any time. ”

The fat cow looked in excitedly, but saw only fragments of wooden tablets, not a single complete volume.

The old man's face seemed to show a hint of shyness, he scratched his bald head, and said, "Not originally. It was already decayed, and the dead things here are easy to decay, so I slipped on the wooden tablet again, but the rope that wore it was broken......"

"But all the swordsmanship—" he pointed to his shriveled bald head, "is written down here." ”

The old man glanced at the hook pigs, and they seemed to be completely unmoved by these swordsmanship: "If you want to go directly to the second layer, you have to break by yourself." ”

After speaking, he took the four of them to the door, but after a hundred steps, the small hill in front of him, which had always seemed to be gentle, actually appeared as if it had been cut by a knife and axe, and a huge canyon appeared, more than a hundred steps wide, and it was pitch black below, and it was bottomless.

And in front of it is still a gentle hill, a simple and harmless quiet wilderness.

But in this quiet suburb, there was the sound of a roaring sword.
