Chapter Forty-Eight: The Shadow Forest

"The battlefield on the northwestern border of the Spirit Empire has been invaded by the Blood Clan, which..." Shi Lan knew that there was not only one country's army in the Sparrow Spirit Empire on this battlefield, but they were all attacked by the Blood Clan, and this matter was really big.

"Sect Master Shi, I think this blood clan is..."A man said.

"Sect Master Gardenia doesn't have to be afraid, I think so. I will truthfully explain this matter to our emperor, and I will stop here today!" said an old man with gray hair angrily.

"This..."Shi Lan was instantly anxious, he didn't expect that in this dire situation, the blood clan would come back and intervene, and only attack the Sparrow Spirit Empire, these people are not stupid, this Western Xiyun Empire is clearly declaring war on the other four empires.

Looking at the scattered crowd, Shi Lan wiped the sweat on his forehead, this matter cannot be controlled by himself, this is related to the entire human race, I didn't expect that since the blood clan can provoke the human race in broad daylight, this is a big war after all.

"Alas... Never mind... Let's take one step at a time, this blood clan is here to intervene..."Seeing these scattered people, Jue Lin said to Shi Lan.

"No way, it's still here after all..."Shi Lan said helplessly.

"By the way, Shi Xiao asked me to give this thing to you!" Sect Master Mo took out the three exquisite boxes and handed them to the three of them, and the three of them also looked at each other and opened the box.

Suddenly, the fragrance of Dan overflowed, and the three boxes were filled with Ji Dan.

"Hahaha!" everyone looked at each other and laughed, as if to dispel the troubles just now.

......

"Do you want to take a break, this storm is too big!" Shi Xiao said to the group.

The huge sandstorm made it difficult for the group of people to walk, and Shi Xiao just kindly reminded that this sandstorm might not stop for a while, and if they continued like this, they would probably be swallowed by this sandstorm.

"Are you?" asked a man in a blue turban, warily. Anyone who appeared in this desolate sand was an unknown danger, and coupled with the fact that Shi Xiao had no defenses at all at this time, he relied solely on his aura to expel the surrounding wind and sand, and these people would inevitably feel a little surprised.

"Find a place to hide first!" Shi Xiao said.

The hurricane in the distance is blowing stronger and stronger, and it will not be long before it engulfs this area, and if you don't find cover to resist it now, it doesn't matter if you don't have any cover, these people may not survive this storm.

Shi Xiao saw that there was no place to hide from the yellow sand all around, so he waved his hand and attacked the aura towards a piece of yellow sand with a slight slope, and a huge sand pit appeared in an instant. Shi Xiao took the lead and jumped in, and those people looked at each other but saw the sandstorm not far away and jumped into the sand pit.

"Thank you, brother, for your help! I don't know my brother's name?" said the man with the blue turban. The aura released by Shi Xiao at this time completely protected the sand pit to prevent accidents.

"It's raining!" Shi Xiao replied.

"Xiao Yu?!" said a boy who was about the same age as Shi Xiao on the side.

"Do you know?" asked the man in the blue turban.

"Sure, this year's Domain Force of Falling Sun City selected him as a role model for the cultivators of the entire Yin Heavy Domain, beating those cultivators of the Yang Heavy Domain and finally winning the second place..."The man said enviously.

"It's just luck..."Shi Xiao touched his head and said.

"I didn't expect you to be a master, brother! I forgot to introduce myself, in Xia Yuhai!" the man with the blue turban said respectfully.

Shi Xiao's deeds can be regarded as resounding throughout the Western Continent, although some people don't know Shi Xiao's name, but the story of overpowering the others is still widely spread, and even has become a role model among the cultivators of the Yin Heavy Domain.

After some conversation, the sandstorm gradually receded, and Shi Xiao learned that they also went to the Shadow Forest to practice, and a group of fourteen people wanted to go to the Shadow Forest to hone and hone, in order to be the next domain power selection. Shi Xiao didn't say the purpose of going to the Shadow Forest, but in order to make up a reason to hide it, he also said that he went to the Shadow Forest to practice. In the end, Shi Xiao received the most sincere invitation: to take that group of people to the Shadow Forest with him.

Shi Xiao looked at those adoring eyes and couldn't bear to refuse, and finally agreed. When those people heard Shi Xiao's promise, they immediately blossomed with joy, you must know that with this strong man, the chances of surviving in that mysterious shadow forest are a little greater.

The sky gradually darkened, the night sky on the desert was exceptionally clear, the stars were like dots, a bright moon shone on the earth, and a little crystal light appeared on the yellow sand. The yellow sand dissipated its heat in the night, and the temperature dropped sharply, making the group shiver from the cold, but Shi Xiao was different, his celestial ice veins had no effect on such a temperature.

Shi Xiao shook his head and took out the firewood from the Naling Stone, fortunately, their group of people had the decision of the fire attribute, otherwise they would have to freeze to death in this desert.

"Aren't you going to the Shadow Forest to be fully prepared?" Shi Xiao wondered.

"All our money has been used to buy wound medicine, and that Shadow Forest doesn't know what kind of difficulties it will encounter, so it doesn't prepare any daily necessities!" Yu Hai said embarrassedly. For them, one is money and the other is strength, they don't have much money, and their strength is very weak, this time they will definitely use a lot of money to buy life-saving medicines when they go to the Shadow Forest to practice.

"Take out your domain power crystal!" Shi Xiao said helplessly.

Yu Hai took out the domain power crystal with a puzzled expression, Shi Xiao didn't say anything and gave them all his general supplies and food, Yu Hai looked at Shi Xiao in surprise and said, "This... Brother Xiao, you don't have to be like this..."Looking at the things in front of Shi Xiao Yu Hai was very embarrassed, and everyone on the side also looked at Shi Xiao in surprise, since a person who had never known each other helped them so much, they all turned to respectful eyes in an instant.

"I don't know what happened to me when I went to the Shadow Forest this time, so you take these things first, I don't bring much, but it's enough, when the time comes, you remember to save your life, I let you run, otherwise I can't take care of everyone for a while!" Shi Xiao said solemnly.

Everyone lowered their heads, Shi Xiao had done enough for them, and he had given them so much help without knowing each other. Besides, they know best their strength, and if they really encounter any special circumstances, they will only delay Shi Xiao.

After a night of silence, the group got up early to wash up and set out on the road. Because the temperature during the day was too high, Shi Xiao asked them to get up early and set off, walk for a while, and rest as soon as the weather was hot, otherwise it would be easy to die. In this way, Shi Xiao led them all the way west, and gradually the yellow sand on the ground gradually decreased, and there were a few trees around, and the temperature became less hot.

Suddenly, a burst of water vapor came to his face, and the sound of rushing water resounded in everyone's ears, Shi Xiao unconsciously quickened his pace, and he hadn't touched any rivers for a week. After walking for half a burnt incense, a huge cliff appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and there was a long river next to it, and the river water did not know where it flowed from, and flowed straight into this huge cliff.

The ravine in front of me was bottomless, but the sound of the water hitting the ground echoed so clearly in the cliff. Shi Xiao was attracted by such a scene, and looked at the opposite side of the cliff, the dense woods were in stark contrast to the environment on Shi Xiao's side.

They washed themselves and rested at the river, where there were piles of remnants of bonfires left behind by the people who had gone to the Shadowforest to recuperate. Shi Xiao also simply washed and sat aside to rest, these days are really tired, now that he has arrived here, he is ready to find a way to enter this Shadow Forest.

A cliff stretches infinitely to the left and right, as if cutting off the entire continent, and the deep valley floor can't help but make people tremble. Shi Xiao stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the other end not far away, the fog was misty, and the whole forest was wrapped in bursts of wet mist, which seemed particularly mysterious.

"Brother Xiao, how do you get past this cliff?" Yu Hai asked.

"I'm afraid this is not something that ordinary people can pass... If you don't use the power of the domain, I'm afraid you won't be able to step on it, and if you see the remnants of those fires, I'm afraid it's left behind by those who can't pass it..."Shi Xiao said.

"This..."Yu Hai looked helpless, stepping into the air is only possible for a strong person with a domain power of more than seven levels, and his own side is at most two and one realm, and it is almost impossible to go over.

Yu Hai looked disappointed, although they heard that this Shadow Forest was not something that ordinary people could enter, but they still came with the attitude of trying, who knew that they didn't even have the qualifications to enter this Shadow Forest.

"How did you cooperate in battle?" Shi Xiao asked.

"We all came out of one place, from childhood to adulthood, and there were a few of us in the second round of the last domain force selection, although the results were not good, but I feel that the cooperation in the battle should be possible!" Yu Hai said confidently. Several of them participated in the selection of domain power, but in the end, they were defeated by the Yang Heavy Domain team like the other Yin Heavy Domain teams.

"Since you said so, then I will help you go today, and if your strength can't survive in it at that time, I will still send you out!" Shi Xiao said.

"Okay! Thank you, Brother Xiao!" Yu Hai arched.

"Do you have anyone in your team who knows how to make decisions with water attributes, let him come over!" Shi Xiao said.

"Jiuqi, come here!" Yu Hai said with a wave of his hand.

A plainly dressed boy walked over, the boy was honest-looking and muscular.

"Will 'Zhushui' be used?" Shi Xiao said straight to the point.

"Brother Xiao, I will!" Jiu Qi smiled innocently.

"Do your best to hit the 'pillar water' towards the other side, remember to use all your strength!" Shi Xiao said solemnly.

"Good!" replied Jiuqi.

"I'm just going to try if this trick can cross you over!" Shi Xiao whispered.

"'Zhushui'!" Jiuqi roared. Urging the domain force, pinching out the decisive method, a column of water sprayed towards the opposite bank.

Rumble!

A huge current of water rushed to the opposite bank, but it was too far away to spray on the other side.

Drink!

Jiu Qi roared, only to see the water rush towards the opposite bank, at this time Jiu Qi's face gradually turned pale, this kind of consumption is not a joke, for the cultivators of the Yin Heavy Domain, the innate nature of the domain power is not mellow, and it is very difficult to release ordinary decisions, plus it is even more difficult to maintain such a state.

"Ning!" Shi Xiao roared.

The aura suddenly burst out, and the temperature around them plummeted a few points, and everyone couldn't help but hug themselves, this temperature made them feel like they were in the cold winter.

"Jiuqi, you steady!" Shi Xiao shouted.

"Hmm... Okay..."Jiuqi said weakly.

"Celestial Ice Vein, open!" Shi Xiao roared.

Airplanes!

Suddenly, the entire column of water froze, forming an ice bridge that connected the two banks.

Everyone looked at Shi Xiao dumbfounded, they had only heard that the cultivators of the Cold Mountain Ice Sect had this ability, but they didn't expect to be able to see it with their own eyes today.

"Let's go, be careful..."
