Chapter 4: Onizawa Forest
It was incomparably dark and deep, and the faint light of the sun outside the sky fell to the ground through the black trees, and everything was indescribably strange and terrifying.
There was a dead silence in this black forest, there was no movement, the silence was terrible, as if there were no other creatures here but the people.
After Pu Tiange and the others entered the Ghost Forest, they did not continue to walk inside, but first observed the surrounding environment, cautiously guarding against unknown dangers that might arise around them.
"It's so quiet, it's not normal. Yu Qing couldn't help but say, he felt a little creepy, and the eerie aura here made him feel uneasy.
"Well, let's be careful, everyone should be vigilant at all times. Pu Tiange paid attention to the surrounding movements vigilantly, and said slowly to everyone.
"How's Yuyue's condition?" Yuqing asked Yushixin to put Yuyue down and check her injuries.
Fortunately, her injuries have not deteriorated, and it is estimated that she will last for a while. Pu Tiange also came to Yuyue's side and said in a low voice.
Several people were temporarily relieved, as long as Yuyue's injuries did not continue to deteriorate, then there was still hope.
"So what do we do now?" asked Yujie anxiously, her eyes full of worry.
Pu Tiange carefully looked at the surrounding environment, the ground in this forest was also black, and there were almost no flowers and plants, except for these dark trees, there was no life at all.
"It's really weird, everything here is unknown, and the unknown is terrifying. Pu Tiange stared ahead with his eyes and said in a flat tone.
"According to Yu Qing's words, the Tianyu Monument will be born in the Ghost Ze Forest, so where is the specific location?" Pu Tiange turned his head to look at a few people, this was very important.
"Well, our ancestor of the Tianyu lineage Yu Renjie once deduced that the Tianyu Monument will be born in the center of the Ghost Ze Forest, so we just need to continue to go deeper. Speaking of this, Yu Qing's face was a little ugly.
After all, the Onizawa Forest is too vast, it is said that it stretches for tens of thousands of miles without end, it is simply boundless, how far does it take to reach the middle place?
Moreover, the Ghost Ze Forest is full of dangers, extremely weird, and it is still unknown whether they can find the Tianyu Monument alive, so the hope is too slim.
"Okay, everyone's injuries are not light now, so let's rest here for a while first, don't rush inside, the outer edge of the Onizawa Forest is still relatively safe. Putian Song said in a deep voice.
Several people were indeed seriously injured, and some of the injuries were even life-threatening, so they had to rest here for a while.
Although they were resting and healing, they did not relax at all, but raised their vigilance and paid close attention to the wind and grass around them.
"There are some things that everyone should know, but I still have to warn you, don't fly over the Onizawa Forest, it's a forbidden area!" Yu Qing said solemnly.
"Hmm, why?" asked Pu Tiange a little puzzled.
"Tiange doesn't know, haven't you heard of the legend here?" Yuqing was very surprised, he didn't expect Putiange to ask this question.
"Not really, don't be surprised, I don't know anything about it. Pu Tiange shook his head and explained.
"Uh............ Then let me talk about the reason, the reason is that the creatures flying over the Guize Forest will definitely die, there was once a strong man at the peak of the Holy Spirit Realm flying over the Guize Forest, and it is said that this strong man exploded and died on the spot. ”
"Therefore, it is impossible to fly in the sky above the Onizawa Forest, and this should be kept in mind and never forgotten. Yu Qing's expression was solemn, and he said to Putian Song seriously.
Pu Tiange nodded, he was very jealous of everything here, and he was extremely careful about everything here.
At this moment, he suddenly felt several shadows drifting through the depths of the forest, and then disappeared again, because there was some faint fog in the depths of the forest, he did not see what those shadows were.
"What's going on?" Pu Tiange's eyes shot out two sharp cold lights, and the divine power in his body was working, and he was engrossed in guarding the surrounding situation.
"What's wrong, Tiange, what's wrong?" someone asked, puzzled.
Pu Tiange made a gesture, signaling them not to make a sound, and at the same time, the layers of divine power on the palm of his hand were superimposed, and the complicated luster densely covered the palm, and at this moment he used the mystery of the traditional words, ready to attack at any time.
The dark trees emit the smell of death, obstructing their vision, and where consciousness is suppressed, making it difficult to probe their surroundings.
In the distance of them, there was a haze with several looming shadows, hidden in a faint mist, which were sometimes clear and sometimes blurry, and it was difficult to see what they were.
At this moment, everyone noticed those strange shadows, and they all gasped, which they never expected.
"What are these?" asked Yu Jie, she was really a little frightened.
"It's not clear, calm down, don't act rashly. Pu Tiange said calmly, in the face of such a strange thing, if you are not careful, you are likely to die without a place to be buried.
Everyone stared cautiously at those shadows, this place is too strange, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious, and it is better to get out of danger as soon as possible.
The light here is so dim that it's hard to see how many shadows there are.
As time passed, the shadows remained in place, and they didn't seem to move, but even so, everyone's hearts hung in the air.
"Something is wrong. Pu Tiange's sharp gaze swept over the shadows hidden in the mist, and said solemnly.
"What's wrong?" asked Yu Fengqi nervously, his fingers clenched even paler because he was too nervous.
Pu Tiange didn't speak, just stared at those looming weird shadows, and his expression became more and more heavy.
The shadows in the distance were very hazy, hidden in a faint mist, and everyone had a feeling of being stared, as if the eyes of those shadows were watching them.
After a long time in a tense atmosphere, Pu Tiange finally spoke.
"They're getting closer. Pu Tiange said in a cold tone.
"What? these shadows are approaching?" someone couldn't help but exclaim, and everyone was unusually surprised.
"Don't you notice it? These strange shadows are a little closer to us than they were. Pu Tiange has a strong insight, and the slightest deviation can't escape his eyes.
"We can't wait any longer, because where they are is where we are heading, so we have to go around these shadows and never go near them. Pu Tiange turned his head and said to everyone.
"So what exactly are we going to do?" asked Yu Qing heavily, he and the others had never experienced this strange change, so they were a little overwhelmed.
"The shadows didn't attack us, which means that their purpose is not to kill us right away, so we still have a chance, we should bypass these shadows from the right side, and it's better not to be in their sight. Pu Tiange whispered to everyone, he still had a certain grasp of this.
Everyone followed behind Putiange, and with the help of the cover of those dark trees, they sneaked all the way to the right side of the shadow, and everyone's footsteps were not slow, and soon they came to the right side of the shadow.
They were very careful and kept a certain distance from the shadows at all times, but fortunately, the shadows did not move, and still stayed where they were, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
At this time, from Putiange's angle, he saw a shadow that seemed to turn his head to look here, and he faintly saw a face.
It was a pale face with no features, but he saw that the skin on that face suddenly wrinkled, as if smiling at him, and then the face turned into a shadow again, hazy.
Pu Tiange's pace trembled and stopped, and the people behind him were a little strange, not knowing what was going on.
"What's wrong?" Yu Qing asked with concern, he didn't understand why Putian Song stopped.
"It's nothing, just keep going. Pu Tiange took a deep breath of cold air and said to the people behind him, he didn't tell the scene just now, because he didn't want everyone to worry, otherwise it would probably make them mess up.
A few people walked through the dense forest, quickly leaving the shadows behind and successfully bypassing them.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they couldn't see those eerie shadows at all, and those looming shadows were really palpitating.
"Don't let your guard down, we should keep moving forward and not stop, otherwise those shadows will be in trouble again. Pu Tiange frowned and said to everyone.
"What the hell are those things? It's terrifying!" Yu Shixin was still a little uneasy when he thought about it now, and he had a deep understanding of the horror of this Onizawa Forest.
"I don't know, it may be an illusion or it may not be, it's not necessarily. Pu Tiange didn't want to say anything, he had just entered the Ghost Ze Forest and encountered such a strange thing, it seemed that the road in the future would be even more difficult.
The dark luster scattered all around, and everyone walked through the forest vigilantly, because the terrain of the Onizawa Forest was relatively flat, so the road was not rugged, and the further you went, the taller and taller the trees became, and the more solemn the gloomy atmosphere became.
"We had to find a place to stay overnight before dark, and now we've been walking for half a day, and we're only a few hours away from getting dark. Pu Tiange looked at the sky, and he understood that the night was probably more dangerous than the day, so he must not hurry.
"I haven't seen any living creatures here so far, but I estimate that the Blood Lotus Clan will also send the elites of the Blood Lotus Clan to find the Tianyu Monument in order to obtain the Tianyu Monument, if nothing else, I will meet them sooner or later. Yuqing speculated.
"Those who are too powerful will not dare to enter the Ghost Ze Forest easily, the more powerful the existence enters the Ghost Forest, the more terrifying the danger will be, so the elite sent by the Blood Lotus Clan will not be outrageously strong. Yu Shixin said.
Everyone nodded, it is true, countless painful lessons in history have made the world understand that if you want to enter the Ghost Forest, you must have the determination not to be afraid of life and death.
"We're going to pick up the pace and find a good place to stay overnight before it gets dark. Pu Tiange urged, he was faintly worried, after all, the environment here was too unfamiliar, and any danger could put them to death.
Then everyone quickened their pace, all the way to the depths of the Ghost Forest, everyone was a cultivator, detached from ordinary beings, with a strong physique, even if it was a long time to travel, it didn't matter to them.
However, it is very difficult to cultivate in the Ghost Ze Forest, and it greatly affects the cultivation speed of everyone, but there is no way to do it, it is already very good to be able to maintain the operation of divine power in this Ghost Ze Forest.
