Chapter 57: The Rainforest Clearing

On the western border of Dayan, there is an iconic area called the Wangu Rainforest. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The Wangu rainforest is extremely large, spanning almost half of the western border of Dayan. The dense vegetation blocks out most of the sunlight, making the rainforest dark everywhere, and only the occasional flickering of foliage keeps the dark rainforest from being invisible.

In the dim cloud forest, it was hot and humid. Thick rotting leaves mixed with the corpses of various creatures were piled up on the ground, exuding an indescribable disgusting smell. Some of the rotten leaves were mixed with something, and they actually emitted bursts of mist of various colors in this steamer-like rainforest. Most of these fogs are just as disgusting and unpleasant, but a few of them smell so good that they can even smell addictive.

However, if you really believe that these good-smelling mist can be good for your physical and mental health, then congratulations, you are dead. Because, these fogs with different colors and smells have a well-known unified name - miasma.

The "beauty" of the miasma is well known, and the reason why the Eternal Jungle can be used as a natural protective barrier by Dayan is because the miasma here is not only fatal to ordinary people, but even for monks, some of these beautiful miasma can play these powerful creatures beyond mortals to death.

The eternal rainforest, which seems to be a forbidden area of life, is not dead and silent. Although it is not suitable for humans and most beasts, it is a paradise for many poisonous insects and beasts. Many of these creatures, who are naturally inclined to hot and humid environments, are extremely poisonous themselves. What is a fatal miasma for other creatures is a great tonic for them.

For millions of years, these creatures have lived here for generations, dividing the entire rainforest into untold areas, each guarding its own side. If other creatures set foot on their territory, they will immediately attack violently until all the future offenders are killed or expelled.

To them, the rainforest is like a kingdom of princes and kings. Here, they have their rules.

However, this rule was broken not long ago. Deep in the rainforest, with an earth-shattering loud bang, a strong wind swept through the rainforest, blowing away the miasma and dampness in the rainforest, and the invisible pressure of the strong wind also caused the inhabitants of these rainforests to panic, causing them to either run in all directions or hide in their nests and shiver.

After the strong winds swept away, the rainforest gradually quieted down again. The frightened inhabitants began to tremble out of their nests and tremble to start their lives again.

They are so happy when they don't turn on their minds, as long as their territory is still there. But this is not the case with some highly intelligent creatures. Already curious and fearful, they began to step out of their territory and run all the way to the place where the loud noise had occurred. They wanted to know what it was that caused so much damage to their homeland.

Full of curiosity and fear, they tacitly kept quiet all the way. Whether it is a fierce beast that likes to roar a few times when there is nothing to do, or those insects and snakes that can only make a slight noise, they all try to keep quiet as much as possible. Even when some vengeful beasts met, they did not fight directly as usual, but just bared their teeth at each other, roared a few times to show threat, and then went their separate ways and continued to move forward.

Because, ahead, there are greater threats and unknowns waiting for them.

As they made their way through the rainforest to the place where the explosion had occurred, they were stunned by what they saw.

The familiar rainforest was gone, and the rainforest seemed to be bald, and a large eerie clearing appeared. In the clearing, all the trees were broken at the waist, and some of them were uprooted. In these broken pieces of grass and trees, you can occasionally see the stumps of some insects and beasts, as if telling the horror that happened here.

The strange scene made the poisonous insects and beasts who rushed to stop in place, looking forward to each other, and none of them dared to take a step beyond the thunder pool. They are afraid, afraid that they will enter it and become one of those stumps.

Fear should have caused them to leave, but they were unwilling to leave because they had learned curiosity and longing. Because, with their intelligence, they have learned to yearn for power, to obtain this power that can destroy everything, even if it is only a small part.

In a dilemma, they finally followed their instinct and made a choice, they chose to stay where they were and wait and see. They're waiting, waiting for the first guy to dare to step into them. As long as the first person to step in, and have lived to prove that there is no danger here, they will go into search of the power that might make them stronger.

This is wisdom, and it is the gift that they possess when they open their minds and know how to think.

Again, this is their sorrow. Because their wisdom is not enough to make them understand a truth - the first person to eat crabs often reaps the most.

I don't know how long it took, but on this day, there was a sound of breaking the sky in the sky. The somewhat restless beasts that had been waiting for a long time immediately looked up at the sky.

In the sky, an old man in a cyan robe flew towards here with a huge brown gourd. If Li Chuyi was here, he would definitely feel that the gourd was very familiar, because this gourd was very similar to the gourd of the Taoist priest. It's just that the gourd of the Taoist priest is very dilapidated and pitted, and even the wine gourd of the beggar on the street is not as good, and the gourd that the old man is riding has a smooth appearance and a faint glow, which is a great magic weapon at a glance.

Soon, the gourd flew to the edge of the clearing with the old man, and the old man just glanced at the insects and beasts below who were looking at him at the same time, and then stopped flying and flew directly to the center of the clearing.

Below, those poisonous insects and beasts who had been waiting for a long time saw that a guy dared to be the first to break into this area, and he was not even dead. They didn't think about the difference between flying and running, and as if they had heard the call to charge, they immediately rushed forward, scrambling forward.

The roars rang out, and the beasts rushed.

They scramble to be the first to be the first, but they don't really know what they're looking for. But that little bit of wisdom and instinct let them know that it was right to follow that figure in the sky. That strange beast dared to be the first to set foot here, and without hesitation, it must have discovered something, and if you followed him, it would be right.

So, in the clearing in the rainforest, a strange picture appeared. In the sky, an old man in a green robe walked in front of him, followed by hundreds of beasts on the ground. From a distance, it seems that this old man in the green robe has done something bad to offend these fierce beasts, and as if these fierce beasts are the pets of the old man in the green robe, the scene is extremely weird.

"These brainless fools. The old man in the green robe looked behind him and chuckled.

Ignoring those who were following him, the old man in the green robe looked ahead, holding a Dao decision in his hand, his eyes slightly closed, and he had been silently sensing something.

Suddenly, his face moved slightly, he opened his eyes and looked somewhere in front of him, the corners of his mouth grinned, and he chuckled: "Found it, this is it." ā€

And where he looked, if Li Chuyi was there, he would definitely see at a glance that it was where the spatial crack that sucked him into the void was located.

"Little friend, I hope you are still alive, and it is not in vain that the old man came to you so hard. ā€

A breeze blew, and the old man in the green robe fluttered, revealing a token on his waist, on which a tripod was drawn, and two big characters were engraved in the intricate pattern - Hundred Tribulations.
