Suddenly, Honglushan opened his eyes and looked around. "Where's the name seven?" he asked.

Everyone was shocked. There are really only twelve people here: two Tree Nations, one Snow Countryman, two Sand Nation people, one Beast Countryman, three Dragon Nation people, and three Fog Nation people. Where did Ming Qi go? They began to fantasize about what kind of terrible fate Ming Qi had encountered, whether he was surrounded by demon people or fell into the magic stream and lost his mind? Everyone shuddered, and at this time, drowsiness could no longer crush them, and everyone immediately opened the pulse gate to sense Ming Qi's position through a large range of spiritual magic arrays. It wasn't until late at night that there was still no result, and finally Yokozo decided to let everyone rest for a night and look for it the next day. They didn't expect that even after losing a good companion, they still slept soundly, and everyone's dreams were full of all kinds of good things. They were too tired and burned out to take turns keeping vigils.

As for the name seven who left, he was taken away by the Hui Demon lurking in the dark forest when he was breaking off the queen for everyone. Hui Demon is also known as Tree Demon, a demon clan living in the forest, they can appear behind them silently, and in the night filled with noise, several of their strong spiritual demons approached Ming Qi without difficulty.

Of course, the firelight that the adventure team saw before was not an illusion, but a demon singing wildly in the forest. They are not evil creatures, just like the Green Hill Fox Demon, they are humanoid creatures with strong spiritual powers. Unlike the high-ranking Radiants of the West, the nearby Radiants are combative and not so courteous, as most of them always live near distant dark forests. Their biggest weakness is that they are suspicious and cautious in everything they do. Although they longed for the stars and the distance, they were afraid of the heat and winter, so they did not go far, so that these Radiant Demons only roamed the magnificent forests that have long been lost today, and most of them lived at the edge of the forest, in order to avoid the giant monsters in the forest. There, they can go into the forest to hunt, and sometimes they can run on the plains by moonlight or starlight.

Where the expedition did not reach, on the east side of the dark forest was a huge cavern inhabited by their most king, and in front of the gate of the boulder, a river ran through the forest and flowed continuously into the plains outside. This huge cavern has countless small openings on all sides, and it also goes deep into the ground, with many passages and halls. The underworld is far cleaner and brighter than expected, and although it is built in a dark forest, it is not so deep and not so dangerous. In fact, most of the king's subjects lived and hunted in the forest, and most of the houses were built on the ground or on tree trunks, and cypress and oak trees were their favorites. The King's Palace was also a place for him to collect his treasures, and it was also a fortress for them to resist foreign invasions.

At the same time, it was also the dungeon where they housed prisoners. Therefore, they unceremoniously dragged Mingqi inside. They have hated the Terrans since ancient times, whether they are soldiers trying to plunder their territory or children sneaking in to loot treasures, and they have fought many wars with the Terrans before the Holy Alliance was established, relying on the difficult terrain of the Dark Forest to defend and save the day. On the Terran side, there is another saying: the Dark Forest Demon is not trustworthy, always betrays his companions, and gives up the moral bottom line for the sake of profit. The countless treasures in their treasury were bought by selling their companions, but they were never satisfied, because they considered themselves to be inferior to the other noble Radiant Demons and Flower Demons of the Ten Thousand Flower Tides in the west. Their people did not work hard, but only thought of making a fortune by fighting, and over time, the reputation of the Dark Forest Demons became very bad.

When Mingqi was brought to the king, the other party looked at him seriously and asked him many questions, but Mingqi just kept saying that he was hungry.

"Why did you and your companions try to attack our companions we were celebrating, if you remember correctly, there should have been three times. The king asked.

"We attacked them, and when we rushed over, we didn't even open the gates. Mingqi replied, "We just want to pray for some food, because we have been hungry for a long time!"

"Where are your friends, and what are you doing now?"

"They killed the giant monster in the forest and then tried to make their way through the dark forest. ”

"You killed the spider?" said the king, astonished, and asked suspiciously, "only the thirteen of you?"

"Yes. ”

The king was silent for a moment, looked Ming Qi up and down, and pondered, "Well, your companions are all about the same strength as you?"

"I'm the weaker of them, and even though there are only thirteen of us, each of us has the strength to fight against all of them. Ming Qihao said modestly.

"It's really possible. The king nodded, "If the thirteen people are all Twelve Vein Sect Spiritualists...... So, who killed the giant monster?"

"A Shuguo man, he is the greatest writer of Shuguo. ”

"How many veins can he open?"

"He's not a psychic. ”

"Not a psychic?

"No, Your Majesty. Mingqi said: "He's just an ordinary person, but he's the best at creating miracles." ”

"Okay, whatever you say, but thank you for killing that giant monster, so that the Radiant Demon can hunt more freely in the dark forest. "Now let's get back to business, why did you go into the forest?"

Mingqi didn't speak, he didn't want to answer.

"What are you doing in the forest?" asked the king.

"Finding water and food, and how to get out of the forest. ”

"Where are you going when you get out of the forest?" asked the king.

Seven was silent again.

After a long time, the king finally ran out of patience, "Very good, Mr. Human, you are asking for your own suffering!" The king said, "Take him away, take good care of him, and see when he is willing to speak, seal up all the six veins he has left, and if he does not say anything, let him die alone in his cell."

The demon tied him up with his thick body and locked him in the deepest cave. They gave him enough food and drink, not the best, but in large numbers. Hui Demon is not a demon beast, and there is a bottom line for treating enemies. In general, as long as the demon beast is the real common enemy of the human race and the demon race.

Mingqi lay in the king's dungeon, and after he had eaten his heart's content, he began to miss his unfortunate friends. At least they say that they have no worries about eating now, but they are not necessarily, and if they encounter any accidents, it is difficult to say.

On the second day of the battle with the spiders, Wu Guang and his companions tried their last strength to find the trail that would catch a wild deer alive before they starved or died of thirst. They scrambled to their feet and staggered in the direction of what was identified as a trail. In the end, they failed. The long day had changed, and hundreds of fires suddenly appeared around them, making them feel as if they were surrounded by red stars. The Radiant Demon of the Dark Forest is holding a bow and arrows and spears, and a huge spiritual vein array has been formed around it, and it only takes an order to send an order, and the adventure team in the center will be bombarded with a large-scale spiritual art. They ordered the Terrans who had stepped into their territory to stop.

If it had been a few days ago, when everyone was in the best condition, the adventure team still had the strength to fight against it, or with their psychic detection ability, they would not have allowed so many demons to come close to them. But at this time, they hadn't eaten or drunk for three days, and even strong men like Xiang Qiu Fengyang and Genesis couldn't continue to fight. In fact, they didn't have any resistance at all, and even if the hundreds of glowing demons couldn't stop them, even if they fled, they would starve to death in the dark forest. So they're happy to be captured alive, because at least they'll be able to eat something decent. They all stopped, Qiu Feng Jianhao did not draw his long sword, everyone sat on the ground and waited for the judgment of fate, the only exception was Wu Guang, who rolled to the side before he was discovered, because he had no spiritual power, the Hui Demon in the distance could not resonate with himself with spiritual arts, so he could well avoid everyone's sight.

Hui Demon took the torch, sealed the veins of these top spiritual magicians who could open the twelve veins one by one, and then led them through the forest, they didn't see Wu Guang following in the darkness at all. Due to the fact that the Hui Demon walked very fast, Wu Guang could only barely follow the torch forward with all his strength, because there were Dragon Country girls in these adventure teams, these Hui Demons were very polite and did not embarrass them, so the speed of the troops was not fast.

The torches stopped, and before they could start crossing the bridge, Wu Guang caught up with them. This is the bridge that jumped over the river at the entrance of the palace, and the water under the bridge was dark and deep, but perhaps because the giant monster was killed by himself, the river became clearer. At the other end of the river was the opening of a huge cavern, all hidden under a hill full of verdant trees. Everywhere you look, cypress trees are growing wildly, and even the roots of those near the banks of the river are sticking into the water.

The Hui demons pushed the appendix across the bridge, but Wu Guang behind him hesitated, he struggled for a long time before deciding that even at the risk of being discovered, he must not abandon his friends. So, he rolled in just in time to get behind the last Radiant Demon.

The flames in the tunnel shone all around, and the glow guards made their way through the winding tunnel, singing as they went. The caves here are not deep, they are relatively small, and the air is very fresh. He left from a corner, avoiding all the Hui Demon guards, and since the Tree Country and the Hui Demon were already similar in aura and appearance, it was not difficult to hide from the world.

The King of the Dark Forest Glowing Demon sits on a wooden throne and governs everything from his vast palace with carved beams. To suit the colors of autumn, he wears a crown made of autumn leaves, and in spring, he wears a crown of forest flowers, and in his hand he holds a scepter carved out of oak.
