Chapter 372
It was those tragic scenes that filled the hearts of those who woke up with anger, no matter what fierce beasts they saw rushing over, they would pick up their weapons and attack the fierce beasts, and more and more martial cultivators fought fiercely with the fierce beasts, making the scene even more chaotic.
In fact, more unfortunate than many Wu Xiu who lost their companions were the original fierce beasts in the water, and the change of the colorful fairy flowers that day caused countless fierce beasts to surface, and as a result, under the spell of the nightmare, those fierce beasts all fell asleep and sank into the lake. couldn't breathe and couldn't wake up, and most of them ended up suffocating in the lake.
Most of the fierce beasts that can crawl out of the lake now are powerful fierce beasts, and the number is not one in ten compared to before, so those fierce beasts that die directly in the lake are even more unlucky.
After a while, the martial cultivators by the lake all woke up, and as soon as they woke up, they had to face such a chaotic scene, which made those who woke up later scratch their heads at all. By the time they came to their senses, they had already been shouted to avenge their dead companions, and more and more martial cultivators joined the battle, constantly attacking the fierce beasts that ran past them.
In the chaos, those martial cultivators didn't have time to consider how strong the fierce beasts they attacked were, and only wanted to kill those fierce beasts to avenge their dead companions.
Up to now, one-third of the original more than 1,000 martial cultivators have died here, one-third have been injured, and only the remaining one-third are in better condition. Of course, in the long chaos, those fierce beasts also suffered many casualties.
The multicolored fairy flowers were still moving, exuding five refreshing fragrances at all times, making the consciousness of the martial cultivators and the fierce beasts more and more sober.
What is imperceptible is that there is a black shadow next to the multicolored fairy flower, hidden in the multicolored brilliance. The black thing is the Nightmare, and if you look closely, someone may be able to find that the movement of the fairy flower is related to the Nightmare, and it is the Nightmare that is moving with the Nightmare.
Then don't think about it, the scuffle below is naturally provoked by the Nightmare. It's a pity that in the chaos, the martial cultivators by the lake attacked the fierce beasts while taking care of their own safety, and they didn't have time to carefully observe the colorful fairy flowers, let alone discover the existence of the soul nightmare next to the fairy flowers.
"Youbin, let's go quickly," Ni Wen's voice reached Ni Youbin through the crowd in the chaos. As a seventh-order martial cultivator, Ni Wen was not awakened by those fierce beasts, nor was he woken up by others, but by the movement in his ears.
After waking up, the surroundings were already very chaotic, and there was no time to think about it, Ni Wen hurriedly woke up Ni Mei and the others next to him, and then asked them to wake up the others. Due to the late arrival, standing at the back position, and being lucky that the fairy flower did not move to this side, Ni Wen and the others were still safe and sound.
After explaining to Ni Youbin, Ni Wen ran directly to Han Xuan and woke Han Xuan up.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of people all got up, and in front of them was a chaotic battlefield.
"Brother Zhao, Brother Zhang, let's say goodbye," Now that the situation is chaotic, Ni Wen looked at the fairy flowers while thinking about how to protect Ni Wenbin and them. Either way, it wasn't a bad thing for Ni Wen to be able to separate from the other two teams.
After Ni Youbin was woken up, he still didn't understand what was going on.
"What's going on with fairy flowers?" After running to Ni Wen's side, Ni Youbin immediately asked about the colorful fairy flowers.
"Don't worry about that until we get back to safety. Ni Wen frowned, and then helped Han Xuan to walk towards the safe area behind.
At the same time, Ni Mei, who was not far away, grabbed Ni Youbin's sleeve and walked back with Ni Youbin.
And Zhao Xingyang and that Zhang Zhengjian Ni Wen did not object to separating from them, in the eyes of the two, the chaos in front of them must be related to the colorful fairy flowers, maybe it has not been long before they compete for the fairy flowers, so it is indeed not suitable for them to stay together.
Now Ni Wen and the others were going to retreat to a safe area, they didn't follow behind, they just retreated to another safe location.
It didn't take long for the three groups to retreat a hundred meters away, and the battlefield in front of them became much smaller. From a distance, those huge beasts are particularly eye-catching, and wherever the multicolored fairy flowers move, those fierce beasts will chase in which direction.
Because the overall strength of the fierce beast was still stronger than Wu Xiu, and it had no scruples over there, rampage, so that Wu Xiu could only flee in embarrassment, escape from the melee area, and run to a safe position.
Above the melee area now, despite the dazzling sunlight, it was difficult to hide the brilliance of the multicolored fairy, which shrouded the lake and the surrounding area.
"That soul nightmare seems to be next to the fairy flower?" Following Ni Wen all the way here, the confused Ni Youbin after briefly looking at the situation in front of him, his eyes still returned to the colorful fairy flower above, because Ni Youbin felt that the chaos in front of him must be related to the colorful fairy flower.
The multicolored fairy flowers came and went, but no matter how you looked at it, Ni Youbin felt that there was a black thing next to the fairy flowers, which looked a little familiar, so Ni Youbin quickly guessed that the thing was likely to be a nightmare.
"Youbin, you read that right, why didn't I see it. Ni Mei next to her was also observing the fairy flowers, but she didn't find the existence of the Nightmare.
However, as soon as Ni Youbin said this, Ni Wen noticed that he had not found a nightmare from the beginning to the present. But it was impossible for that soul nightmare not to care about the colorful fairy flowers, so Ni Youbin's words were very noteworthy.
Next, Ni Wen's eyes followed the colorful fairy flower closely, until when he saw the same scene as Ni Youbin, his thoughts flashed, and Ni Wen thought of the purpose of the soul nightmare hidden next to the colorful fairy flower. If the scuffle ahead was provoked by the Nightmare, then Ni Wen could easily think of the reason why the Nightmare did this.
"There really seems to be a black thing next to the fairy flower," Ni Ming's voice sounded as Ni Wen gradually understood what was going on.
"Is there really one?" Although her eyes were always on the multicolored fairy flower, Ni Mei still didn't notice the existence of the nightmare.
"There is indeed a black shadow next to the fairy flower," Then, Han Xuan also told his discovery.
"Yes, indeed," when Ni Mei became more and more anxious to see some clues, Ni Wen gave affirmation on the side.
"Uncle Wen, is that the nightmare making the fairy flower move?" At the same time, Ni Youbin on the side had a new question in his heart after confirming that the black thing was a nightmare, but Ni Youbin himself had already guessed some answers.
"Smart," Ni Wen, who had already figured out what the Soul Nightmare was unexpected, rarely showed praise to Ni Youbin.
"Then why did the Soul Nightmare do this?" didn't care too much about Ni Wen's praise, Ni Youbin just wanted to know if what he thought was the same as what Ni Wen thought.
"If I'm not mistaken, it won't be long before the fairy flowers will ripen, and the Soul Nightmare is to prevent Wu Xiu and the fierce beasts from competing for the fairy flowers. This was the answer that Ni Wengang had come up with, and only this reason could explain why the Soul Nightmare would provoke a scuffle.
"What does the maturity of the fairy flower have to do with the Nightmare behaving like this?" After his guess was verified, Ni Youbin found a more critical question from Ni Wen's answer.
Facing Ni Youbin's question, Ni Wen's face finally showed a look of thought, and he pondered for a moment before replying: "There is a legend about fairy flowers, when fairy flowers are fully mature, the five-colored petals will no longer be able to grow together, and will take the initiative to separate and float to five different directions. If my guess is correct, the Nightmare is afraid that the fairy flowers will not be able to get five petals at the same time when they are separated. Ni Wen's tone became cautious, giving people a strange feeling.
"I see," Ni Youbin nodded thoughtfully, understanding the Nightmare's intentions, "Then why doesn't the Nightmare let us sleep for a while." But soon Ni Youbin thought of another question.
Ni Youbin's questions are always one after another, and he will not stop without asking to understand. Except for Ni Wen, everyone else couldn't keep up with Ni Youbin's train of thought, so when Ni Youbin asked this question, many people hadn't figured it out.
"This matter," Ni Wen didn't frown, but there was also no calm on his face, and he simply replied, "Maybe that soul nightmare doesn't have the ability to make us sleep for that long." Ni Wen wasn't sure of his answer, but he was asked by Ni Youbin again and again, and he was a little uncomfortable.
In any case, at this moment, Ni Youbin has a conclusion in his heart.
"When will the fairy flowers ripen?" After listening to it for a long time, Ni Mei finally understood the conversation between Ni Wen and Ni Youbin.
"It should be today, the exact time is not yet known," The brilliance of the fairy flower is a little more abundant than when it came, and even the pitch-black soul nightmare hidden in the light cannot be seen clearly, Ni Wen can easily make an inference. As a result, as he spoke, the Nightmare suddenly flew towards this side with the fairy flower.
The speed was very fast, and sure enough, those fierce beasts with low intelligence followed closely behind, jumping and trying to swallow the fairy flower, but although sometimes the fairy flower was extremely close to those fierce beasts, the soul nightmare would not let those fierce beasts succeed, but only let those fierce beasts bite each other more intensely.
"Uncle Wen, what should I do?" Seeing the Nightmare coming over with a large group of fierce beasts, Ni Youbin, who fully knew the Nightmare's intentions, spoke again.
"You protect yourselves and don't be hurt by the beast," a gleam flashed in Ni Wen's eyes, and an idea arose in his heart, if you want to compete for the colorful fairy flowers, you can only accept the challenge.
"En," after receiving Ni Wen's reminder, Ni Youbin nodded seriously, and had some ideas for the next scramble for fairy flowers. Then, under Ni Wen's reminder, several people dispersed. It's not yet time to compete for fairy flowers, and all that everyone has to do now is to protect themselves as much as possible.
Not long after, under the deliberate behavior of the Soul Nightmare, the people who had originally stood in the safe area fell into chaos one after another, and the Soul Nightmare flew in whichever direction as long as it found that someone was idle, obviously wanting to stir up all the fierce beasts and martial cultivators.
At first, Ni Youbin could try to avoid those fierce beasts, but later they had to join the battle.
