Chapter 3: The Fallen Forest
"What should I do? It's not a way to hide like this, how can I get out of this predicament. Jiang Xiaobai hid in the mountains for nearly five days. Without Ling Tian's existence, he could completely consume it while cultivating until the day the Great Array was closed. However, Ling Tian, who was in the Divine Hidden Realm, had already condensed his soul, and his body was too powerful to merge heaven and earth, and sooner or later he would be pulled out.
"Ling Tian! It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. If I am allowed to escape this catastrophe today, I will make you doomed!" Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth as he pressed the wound that was still spilling blood.
He slowly came to the small river and touched the mountain sealing array with his hand. Beyond the large array, a rugged mountain road winds through the hills. For this moment, it is like a link of life, connecting the boundless and splendid world.
The way to life is in front of him, but an invisible barrier has always blocked him, like a chasm in the sky, insurmountable.
"Oh ~ damn it! Let's wait until I escape. Jiang Xiaobai withdrew his hand and instantly withered like a deflated ball.
On the invisible barrier, a trace of blood flickered slightly, emitting a strange light. It was Jiang Xiaobai's blood, which he had just inadvertently rubbed on.
The blood-colored glow slowly stretched from top to bottom until it reached the ground. It looks almost two meters long.
Suddenly, a crack appeared visible to the naked eye where the blood had passed. And it is slowly expanding and spreading to the entire large array.
"My blood can actually open this mountain sealing array!" Jiang Xiaobai couldn't believe it, he stretched out his hand and waved, and found that his hand had reached out.
"Run!" Jiang Xiaobai didn't want to stay for half a minute, so he directly turned into a peng bird and flew out of Qishan.
"I really didn't expect you! You can really break this mountain formation. Hehe~ Interesting, you really make me look forward to it more and more!" Less than a quarter of an hour after Jiang Xiaobai left, Ling Tian stepped into the void and came here.
Jiang Xiaobai incarnated as Peng and had Peng's speed. He galloped, pierced through the clouds and fog, and flew at extreme speed. The trees behind him began to turn into afterimages, and the mountains and rivers began to roll backwards.
He didn't know if Ling Tian had chased after him at this time, but he didn't dare to stop any way no matter what.
But it wasn't until ten days later that he was forced to stop in front of an eerie primeval forest.
This primeval forest is very strange, and it is invisibly shrouded by an extremely mysterious force.
Jiang Xiaobai felt the difficulty of flying when he was ten miles away from the forest. But at that time, he didn't care and rushed straight over. But as soon as he flew to the edge of the forest, the mysterious force instantly dragged him out of the air. If it weren't for his rough skin and thick flesh, he would have fallen half to death.
The forest is unusually dense and obscure. Even in the daytime, it looks dim. The giant trees here are towering, and the trunks are as strong as dragons, and they look even older than the trees in Zhiqi Mountain.
A gust of wind swept by, and the vigorous ancient trees swayed with the wind, like the branches and leaves of the sea fluttering violently. In a trance, it is like the dragon of the sea setting off stormy waves.
Suddenly, a tearing roar came from the depths of the forest, deafening and rolling in. The roar was loud and high, as if it was catering to the wind and demonstrating.
Looking at this strange forest, Jiang Xiaobai shuddered. He instantly felt his scalp tingling, the hairs on his body stood on end, and his heart was extremely uneasy.
"Your uncle's! There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, no matter!"
"Jiang Xiaobai, stop!" Just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to enter the forest, an eager shout suddenly came from behind him.
The person who came was Ling Tian.
In mid-air, Ling Tian's body was shaky, as strong as he was also bound by the mysterious power of the forest. But when he was still two hundred meters from the edge of the forest, he slowly descended to the ground.
"Jiang Xiaobai, you must not enter this forest!. Judging from Ling Tian's expression, he seemed to have a deep fear of this forest.
"Sect Master Ling Tian, it seems that my Jiang Xiaobai's charm is really great, and I actually let you chase me thousands of miles away!" Jiang Xiaobai said as he slowly retreated towards the forest.
"Stop! Jiang Xiaobai, if you enter this fallen forest, you will definitely be dead or alive. Ling Tian stretched out his hand to stop him, but he didn't step forward, he still stayed where he was, he was afraid that Jiang Xiaobai would really rush into the forest in a hurry.
"Fallen Forest?" Jiang Xiaobai looked at Ling Tian suspiciously.
"Jiang Xiaobai, to be honest, I really want to kill you and take away the artifact in your body. But at this point, we can still negotiate another way. Ling Tian's face showed a hint of sincerity.
"Then what did Ling Tian Sect Master say!" Jiang Xiaobai stared at Ling Tian. He did not let his guard down, and was ready to rush into the forest at any time.
"In that case, I'll tell you about the Fallen Forest first. It can be regarded as a show of my sincerity. Seeing that Jiang Xiaobai's heart was relaxed, Ling Tian said in an easy-going tone.
"Legend has it that there is a terrifying force hidden in this fallen forest. It is rumored that as long as you can get it, you can control the heavens and the earth, override all living beings, and become a supreme being..."
"Then why can't I go in, are you afraid that I will get that power and then come out and kill you!" Jiang Xiaobai knew that things were definitely not so simple, but he just wanted to get over it.
Ling Tian didn't care, and continued, "Let's not talk about whether the legend is true or not, whether that mysterious power really exists. But here! is a real Jedi of death..."
"Six thousand years ago, countless super forces on the continent led millions of cultivators to attack this forest in search of that mysterious power. But in the end, they were wiped out in one day. No one knows what they were going through inside, and the only thing they saw was the stinking river of blood flowing from the depths of the forest."
"It's so terrifying!" Jiang Xiaobai's heart palpitated, but fortunately he didn't rush directly into the forest just now.
But the human heart is always greedy and cannot withstand the great temptation. Later, many people entered the fallen forest. But there was no accident, and almost all of them died inside. ”
"Greed, what about Sect Master Ling Tian and Elder Ye Chen?" Jiang Xiaobai looked at Ling Tian and asked rhetorically.
"Hehe~" Ling Tian just smiled and didn't refute, and continued, "But later, more than a dozen people actually walked out of it alive one after another. ”
"What! someone can get out of this terrifying Jedi alive!" Jiang Xiaobai was shocked.
"At that time, they didn't dare to go deeper, they just wandered around the edges. In the end, they walked out without gaining anything. ”
"Straight out?"
"Yes, but after they came out, many ominous things happened to them, and their old age was very bleak. Their spiritual roots disappeared, the sea of souls closed, and their cultivation turned into nothingness, becoming mortals. It is said that they often see terrible visions and go crazy all day long. And from then on, they were no longer able to re-enter the path of cultivation, and they were also unable to resist the erosion of that time on them, until the years passed and the dust returned to the loess. ”
"Later...... "Ling Tian carefully told Jiang Xiaobai everything he knew about the Fallen Forest.
