Chapter 36: The Remains of the Blood Lotus
Although the distance of about ten miles is not very far, because Pu Tiange and Yu Jie are too careful, the speed of moving forward is very slow, and it will be difficult to reach that place for a while and a half.
There's no benefit to arriving too early, though, and if the roaring thing doesn't leave immediately, the sooner it arrives, the more dangerous it will probably be, so it's best to wait until it's too far away.
At this time, the forest was full of wind and cold air, but sweat broke out on the bodies of the two, wetting their clothes, especially Yujie's feet, and the sweat oozing out made the white shoes soaked.
This made Yu Jie a little uncomfortable, she felt like her feet were soaked in water, a little uncomfortable, but there was no choice but to let her feet continue to wear in the damp white shoes.
Both of them were nervous, and neither of them knew what the thing that was making that roar was, and it was likely that something extremely strange or terrifying would happen..........................................
Even if the supernatural power was used to cover the aura, Pu Tiange was not at ease, because this supernatural power could not completely cover the whereabouts of the two, and if he encountered some creatures with keen perception, he would be easily discovered.
Therefore, he did not relax his vigilance because his whereabouts were more hidden, but paid attention to all the wind and grass around him, and the slightest movement would arouse his vigilance.
However, the roar not long ago is indeed not something that ordinary beings can make, and it is very likely that it is a yin and evil thing, if so, the whereabouts of the two people may be difficult to hide.
Yin and evil things are very sensitive to the breath of living people, and even if they use their magical powers to cover their breath, they can't completely isolate the breath of the two, so if it's really a yin and evil thing, then it's troublesome, I'm afraid it will be very tricky.
It's useless to worry about it now, in short, Yuqing and a few people want to see people in life and see death in death. If Yuqing and the others were really there, it was likely that something would have happened, but even if there were only corpses left, he would never be able to ignore them.
Yu Jie's hand was clenched very tightly, and Pu Tiange's wrist was white, he could understand Yu Jie's nervous mood at the moment, after all, for a girl like her, the ability to bear it was still poor.
"It should be around here. Putiange slowed his pace, his sharp, long gaze scanning everything around him.
If the judgment is correct, the terrifying roar should have come from this place, although the specific location cannot be determined, but the approximate range is not far from ten.
Hearing Pu Tiange say this, Yu Jie's hand clenched tighter, and Pu Tiange had to make a gesture to signal her to relax, there was no need to be too nervous.
The surrounding trees are tall and vigorous, the wood is dark, and there is no shortage of towering people among them, and Putiange noticed that some of the old trees were covered with blood, and there were traces of a fight next to them, so it was obvious that there had been a great battle here.
Due to the hard ground of the Onizawa Forest, there were not many traces left by the fight, and the blood here had not dried yet, indicating that this battle should have taken place not long ago, and it was likely related to that terrifying roar.
The two walked along the bloodstains and soon discovered an extremely horrific scene, which was terrifying.
Not far ahead, there was an unusually large giant tree, which was dark and black, with lush branches and leaves, and its many roots covered the ground beside it, which looked very stable.
The most terrifying thing is that on the branches of the giant tree, there are some people's stumps and broken flesh, and the demonic blood flows down from the tree, staining the ground here, which is extremely terrifying!
Some of the broken bodies hanging from the branches of the trees, some of them even scattered their internal organs on the ground, and the intestines and livers fell out of half of the bodies, and some of them were even separated from the corpses and hung in the air!
And some of the heads on the remains were staring, their mouths were open, their whole faces were distorted, and their expressions were very hideous, obviously suffering inhuman pain before death, which was extremely terrifying!
Some of the stumps were too fragmented to tell how many of them were, but on the surface, there must have been at least a dozen corpses, possibly more.
"Ah........................ Woo........................" Yu Jie almost screamed, and quickly covered her mouth with her hand, she was really afraid to see Yu Qing and them among these mutilated corpses.
Pu Tiange was very calm, he noticed that these corpses were all wearing blood-red clothes, and a bewitching blood lotus could be faintly seen on the skull, if he guessed correctly, these corpses should be the Blood Lotus Clan.
However, among these corpses, he didn't see Yuqing and the others, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"These corpses are all Blood Lotus Clan, you don't have to worry. Pu Tiange patted Yujie on the shoulder and indirectly told her that there was no Yuqing here.
"I see. Yu Jie put her heart down, as long as Yu Qing and they are not here, it is possible that they will still be alive, she can't imagine that if Yu Qing and them are all dead, she can bear it.
"However, the one who killed these Blood Lotus Clan and hung up their remains should be the one that roared not long ago. ”
"It's just.................................... I didn't find that these wrecks were stained with evil breath, so I am afraid that what killed them was not something evil. ”
Under normal circumstances, people who have been in contact with evil things will have the aura of yin evil on their bodies, but these corpses do not have it.
"What's that?" asked Yu Jie, a little nervous, feeling a little uneasy.
"I don't know, but if the thing that killed these people wasn't too far from here, I think whatever it was, we'd be in danger. Pu Tiange's eyes were deep and he groaned.
Suddenly, Pu Tiange found that on the other side of the giant tree, there was a Blood Lotus Clan's body that moved a few times, but this Blood Lotus Clan only had the upper half of his body left, and the lower half was gone.
Pu Tiange and Yu Jie turned to the other side of the giant tree, and soon found that this Blood Lotus Clan was still alive, but his breath was very weak, his mouth was closed one by one, and blood was glaring from the corners of his eyes, which was very miserable.
The Blood Lotus Clan moved his arms to support the remaining half of his body, but unfortunately he couldn't, and only some internal organs flowed out of the upper half of his body. Fortunately, he was a cultivator with a strong vitality, otherwise he would have died a long time ago.
"Don't move, you're weak right now. Pu Tiange's tone was soft, and he said softly, while holding him down with his hand to prevent him from constantly struggling and speeding up the speed of death.
It was obvious that this Blood Lotus Clan would not survive, and in Pu Tiange's opinion, no matter what kind of hatred he had in his life, once he passed away, everything would disappear and cease to exist.
The Blood Lotus was in a lot of pain, not only physically, but also mentally, he opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out, and finally he actually cried.
"Woo.................. My brother, I promised my mother to take care of him, but .................. Ahem!" The Blood Lotus Clan cried bitterly, trying to roar, but only coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.
The Blood Lotus Clan is very ferocious and violent, but they also have feelings, they will be sad, they will cry, they will also have people they care about, and there are also things they want to protect and pursue.
"What's wrong with your brother?"
"I ......................................................"
"Don't be afraid, just say it. Putian Ge's words were like magic, infecting this Blood Lotus Clan and touching his heart.
Streams of pure divine power were poured into the body of this Blood Lotus Clan from Putian Ge's palm, not to save him, because he couldn't save him at all, but to make him feel better and relieve some pain.
"My brother and I are very talented, so I was selected to enter the Ghost Forest with other geniuses of my clan to find the Heavenly Monument, I am willing to go, but I don't want my brother to go, because my brother is still young and immature, but this is not voluntary, I can't help it, I just hope I can protect him.........................................."
"My mother died early, and she left us when my brother was young, and before leaving, my mother told me to do my duty as an older brother, and to be able to protect my brother when she was away, but I ..................... it."
"The Ghost Forest is really sinister, even if our clan sent many teams from different directions of the Ghost Forest to the Ghost Forest, but there were still heavy casualties, more than a dozen people in our team died, and then they merged with other teams, the number reached about twenty people, but after some dangers, there were only four or five people left, so they converged with other teams, and after the team grew, a group died, and they tossed many times, and I was really glad that my brother and I were able to survive.................."
"But tonight, we saw three wounded Terrans passing by, maybe they were too badly injured to notice our presence, and we didn't chase the three Terrans, because we were also very badly injured, and we didn't intend to make a fuss out of this kind ........................of place full of weirdness."
"Unexpectedly, not long after the three human races left, we fell into a crisis, it was a monster with a cloak and a disheveled head, although the body was very thin, but the strength was terrifying! At the beginning, a strong man of my clan was torn in half, originally the cultivator could be reborn with severed limbs, but after being torn apart by this monster, the strong man could not regenerate............
"These dozen of us are all in the realm of Xuan Ling's initial left and right, but each of us is seriously injured, and a few of us can't even fight, so we are not the opponent of this monster at all, if we are in a full state, we can fight......"
"It was chaotic, the monster was so fast that almost no one could stop it, my brother was right next to me, he attacked me and pushed me towards the monster, trying to hold the monster back, but unfortunately he couldn't escape in the end, and was torn to pieces by the monster...................................."
"I don't blame him, even if he doesn't do this, I will sacrifice my life to save him, after all, he is my only relative in this world...................................." Even with the nourishment of divine power, this Blood Lotus Clan still struggled to speak, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
"It's better to say it?" Pu Tiange's eyes were clear, bringing people a sense of peace.
"Well, thank you for your patience in listening to my suffering, please put an end to my suffering, I want to go to the horizon to reunite with my relatives and accompany them forever................................................" The Blood Lotus Clan's tone calmed down a lot, as if everything was relieved.
Pu Tiange nodded solemnly, he knew that there was a legend in the Blood Lotus Clan, whenever a clan died, his soul would turn into light and rise to the sky, where he would get eternal life.
Slowly retracting his palm, cutting off the transmission of divine power, the aura of the Blood Lotus Clan began to disintegrate continuously.
His pupils dilated, and he began to drift, and his life passed little by little.
"What do you think the horizon looks like?"
"It's beautiful. ”
"Will I see it?"
"Soon, there will be everything you could want. ”
"My brother, will he rise to the edge of the sky?"
"Yes. ”
"Where?"
"Look, there. Pu Tiange raised his hand to the sky, and at the same time used his divine power to conjure up a scene.
He opened his hazy eyes, and vaguely saw a light, dazzling, illuminating the night sky, and gradually disappearing into the distant sky..........................................
