<h4>Chapter 45 The Willow Tree</h4>


    Kong Yun grinned and sucked in a breath of cold air. Waves of intense pain came from his body. The injuries to his body were even more severe than he had imagined, and his internal organs were heavily injured.


    The explosion of that dandelion-like thing had already surpassed most human weapons. Even a Dragon-level mecha would be shattered into pieces in this explosion.


    If Kong Yun hadn''t slept in that strange cave for half a year, his body would have been shattered by the explosion.


    "Pu!" A green vine emerged from the ground and pierced Kong Yun''s chest.


    Dang! Kong Yun''s reaction wasn''t slow as he stabbed the zing spear at the vine.


    "Push! Push!" The tiger''s mouth trembled, Kong Yun''s body took a few steps back, and the zing me Spear came out of his hand!


    "Kakaka!" The zing me Spear was wrapped around the vine, and its body was twisting. The zing me Spear was actually twisted into pieces.


    "What the hell is this vine!" Kong Yun couldn''t help but suck in a mouthful of cold air. The volcanic crystal iron was actually twisted into pieces.


    The Fire Phoenix in her arms cried out uneasily, her body involuntarily trembling.


    "Is this the guy?" Kong Yun snorted, and an angel potion was injected into his body. His ability exploded, and the pain in his body disappeared. At this moment, his body turned into a metal body.


    This unknown vine was capable of shattering volcanic crystal iron. This power was not small. Even if it was a metal body, it was not safe. Kong Yun did not dare to be careless.


    "You fly first!" Kong Yun threw the Fire Phoenix into the sky. This vine was very dangerous. The Fire Phoenix was seriously injured, so there was nothing it could do.


    This vine was a strange thing that had injured the Fire Phoenix. Its strength was formidable, and it had already exceeded Kong Yun''s ability. Out of reason, Kong Yun would definitely not look for trouble with this thing.


    However, it wasn''t Kong Yun who was looking for him now, but this strange thing hade looking for him and almost killed him. Since he couldn''t dodge, he could only fight!


    Kong Yun was also very clear that with his current strength, he could not be a match for the vine. His only reliance was the angel potion in his hand!


    "Kill!" Kong Yun shouted loudly, and the zing me Spear in his hand transformed into hundreds of spear shadows.


    The green vine was extremely fast. It transformed into thousands of illusions in the sky, easily suppressing Kong Yun. Under the attack of the vine, Kong Yun was in full bloom. In just an instant, several wounds appeared on Kong Yun''s body, and the volcanic crystal iron body was unable to withstand the attack of the vine.


    "Hiss, this damn thing is so powerful!" Kong Yun sucked in a few mouthfuls of cold air, and the vines pumped on his body with burning pain.


    The green vine seemed to be tired of ying, and its body copsed straight like a spear, suddenly piercing towards Kong Yun.


    Kong Yun hurriedly dodged, but the moment Kong Yun dodged, the vine turned back. Kong Yun, who was in the air, could not dodge, and was pierced through his heart by this vine!


    "Cough!" A mouthful of blood sprayed out as Kong Yun''s metal ability retreated, and a bloody hole appeared in his chest.


    "Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!" Fire Phoenix cried out in rm as it dived down, but it was knocked to the ground by a single blow from the vine. The vine split into two, engulfing Kong Yun and Fire Phoenix and dragging them underground.


    Sun Changkong looked at this one-sided battle in horror. Even if Kong Yun''s strength was inferior to his, it was still not much different. In front of this terrifying vine, he was only beaten up. If it was him, the result would probably not be much better.


    There was actually such a terrifying thing around his gathering ce. Sun Changkong was also afraid after thinking about it. Back then, he had chosen this ce because he had taken a fancy to the terrain here. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even facing the zombies'' siege, it was rtively simple to defend.


    However, if there were such a terrifying monster around the gathering ce, no matter how dangerous the terrain was, it would be useless. Wasn''t it a matter of minutes for the monster to destroy this gathering ce?


    "Leave, you have to leave. Staying here is a dead end!" Sun Changkong made up his mind.


    As for Kong Yun, who had been captured by that strange thing, he could only ask for his own fortune. Sun Changkong wouldn''t risk his life to save Kong Yun.


    Kong Yun, who had been sucked into the ground by the vines, quickly shuttled through the ground. There were actually tunnels underground that connected in all directions. Naturally, it was impossible for humans to open so many tunnels underground. Clearly, only this vine could do it easily.


    The vine pierced through Kong Yun''s heart just like that. Fortunately, Kong Yun had a special ability to protect his body, and his vitality was much stronger than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, he would have died the moment the vine pierced through his heart.


    After traveling for tens of kilometers underground, the vines suddenly soared into the air, and Kong Yun and Huo Feng were pulled out of the ground!


    "Bang!" Kong Yun''s eyes lit up. The dazzling sunlight almost made him unable to open his eyes.


    Giant skeletons appeared in front of Kong Yun. Kong Yun was shocked. These corpses had been hanging here for a while, and he seemed to have be one of them.


    "Roar! Roar!" Kong Yun looked at the roaring zombie with surprise. It was a super Titan zombie. Dozens of vines stabbed into his body, as if they were extracting something.


    This was an iparablyrge willow tree. Its branches covered a radius of one kilometer. There were countless branches. On each branch hung a corpse. There were mutated beasts, zombies, and, of course, humans. The willow tree continued to absorb energy.


    There was no doubt that this was a mutated nt, but it was different from the mutated corn Kong Yun had encountered before. This mutated nt was man-eating, and its strength had already grown to an astonishing level.


    Just a single branch could easily defeat him. If it was the main body of the willow tree, Kong Yun didn''t even dare to imagine what kind of scene it would be like to fall into the main body of the willow tree. Even a warrior-level mutated beast wouldn''t be able to endure it, right?


    Kong Yun sighed. No matter what, he couldn''t see any hope of defeating the willow tree. When he was captured by the willow tree, he was probably already dead.


    Kong Yun didn''t want to die, but in front of absolute strength, he didn''t even have the slightest desire to resist.


    "Zizzi!" The branches of the willow tree slowly pulled out from Kong Yun''s heart and ced Kong Yun on the ground. The fire phoenix was also ced down.


    Kong Yun looked at the branches that filled the sky in confusion. Was this the rhythm of letting him go?


    However, just as Kong Yun was about to leave, hundreds of branches blocked his path!


    "Alright, I knew there wouldn''t be such a good thing!" Kong Yun smiled bitterly. He could only walk back when he was blocked by the branches.


    Hundreds of branches guarded against Kong Yun. Once Kong Yun took the wrong path, they would block and guide Kong Yun forward. They seemed to want to lead Kong Yun deeper into the willow tree.


    Turning around, Kong Yun seemed to have arrived at the core of the willow tree, a hole guarded by thousands of branches!


    When Kong Yun appeared here, all the branches around the tree hole scattered, obviously wanting him to enter.


    Kong Yun smiled bitterly. He didn''t seem to have any other choice. The willow tree''s intelligence wasn''t low.


    "You''re finally here!" As soon as Kong Yun''s feet stepped into the tree hole, a human voice came from the tree hole.


    Kong Yun was shocked. Could it be that other than him, there were other people in the cave?


    "Don''t be surprised. I am a willow tree. It''s just that I have learned your humannguage." The willow tree chuckled.


    Kong Yun did not find this funny. Instead, he felt that it was very scary. This mutated nt was even more scary than he had imagined.


    "Why did you lure me here?" Kong Yun asked.


    "Are you afraid of me?" A branch hung down from the tree hole, and a wooden cup fell into Kong Yun''s hand. Inside was a light green liquid.


    "Drink it first. It''s good for your injuries. Your internal organs have been severely injured. If you don''t heal it in time, it will leave behind aftermath in your eyes and affect your abilities." Willow Tree said indifferently.


    "Thank you, but this injury seems to be due to you." Kong Yun smiled coldly.


    "What is this?" Kong Yun sniffed and had a faint fragrance.


    "My juice!" Daliushu said indifferently.


    "The sap of the tree." Kong Yun heaved a sigh of relief. This shouldn''t be a problem.


    "I extracted it from the marrow of a zombie." The willow added.


    "Pu!" As soon as Kong Yun drank it, he spat it out. The marrow fluid of the zombie wasn''t as strong as it tasted.


    "What''s so strange about that? Aren''t all of your human gene potions made from zombie marrow?" The willow tree snorted.


    Kong Yun looked at the top of his head in disbelief, "Are you saying that the ingredient of the human gene medicine is the marrow of a zombie?"


    "Is that strange?" The willow tree asked.


    The appearance of the gene medicine was after the zombie. Everyone was specting about the use of the zombie marrow fluid, but they did not expect that the zombie marrow fluid was made from the material of the gene medicine.


    "We humans don''t know anything. How did you know?" Kong Yun couldn''t help but ask.


    "I''ve eaten a lot of humans and absorbed their memories. There are also quite a few military researchers among them." The willow tree''s voice actually became somewhat mischievous.


    However, Kong Yun did not feel that this willow tree was naughty. Instead, his body was cold. This willow tree was very terrifying, and he was not soft-hearted when killing people. The military''s researchers were the best protected type of people, but they were actually killed by him.


    "You didn''t capture me here just to show off your strength, did you?" Kong Yun took a deep breath.


    "Of course, I won''t do such a boring thing. Your strength is not bad. I think you can be one of the candidates." Daliushu said with a smile.


    "Who is it? Who is it?" Kong Yun was stunned.


    "Boom!" A green egg suddenlynded in the tree hole. It was the size of a fist, and there were some strange patterns on the green eggshell. It looked somewhat simr to the egg of the mingo back then.


    Kong Yun looked at the green egg in disbelief. If he was not mistaken, this was the egg of a mutated beast, right? But could treesy eggs? This seemed a little bullsh*t.
