Chapter 231: The re-cooperation of the two
In just a few breaths, Hu Yong and Wang Jing's former companions became a dried corpse that looked like they had been dead for hundreds of years under the illumination of the emerald green light.
Such a fast and terrifying speed of plundering is simply beyond everyone's ability to bear, it seems incredible, and it is even more terrifying and unimaginable.
Now seeing this creepy fact with his own eyes, even the bodies of Hu Yong and Wang Jing couldn't help but tremble slightly, and Lin Chen saw the tragic situation of the dried corpse, and the body involuntarily took two steps behind him as soon as he came back to his senses.
After all, he is still only a teenager, even though he has faced several life and death crises, but those are only when he has enough hands to get out of danger and when he is fully prepared.
But this is not the case at the moment, this is a more bizarre crisis, which directly affects everyone's life breath, and the cultivator has no means to completely defend himself, and in the end all the means are just useless, and death is still inevitable.
"Calm down!Calm down!!Don't give up just because you haven't found a way out now!!", Lin Chen's heart fluctuated, and one roar after another continued to echo in his heart, wanting to calm his heart.
At this time, his heart was also filled with a deep fear of the plundering of the vitality of unknown plants, and his body trembled slightly, especially after thinking that he had no way out now, a black despair from the depths of his heart that had long been abandoned by him gradually appeared.
What followed was a very faint and imperceptible inexplicable aura that appeared from Lin Chen's body, and Lin Chen's original temperament also changed slightly.
However, in this situation now, when he thought that Lin Zi'er was still waiting for him in this dangerous area, and when he thought that he still had the faces of many people he wanted to see again, the despair in his heart was completely suppressed by his desire to survive, and then he took a deep breath, and his agitated heart gradually calmed down.
After adjusting his mind, Lin Chen did not look at Hu Yong and Wang Jing, who were also surrounded by fear, but carefully observed the companions of the two who had been robbed of all their vitality by unknown plants and had become a dried corpse, and at the same time thought about what to do next in his heart so that he could leave safely from such a mortal situation.
There was no trace of flesh left in the corpse's body, so his skin clung to the bone, making his face full of horror before he died even more terrifying and eerie.
It is also related to his own life and death, and it is also related to Lin Zi'er's life and death, so at this time, Lin Chen's observation of the dried corpse was also more serious, and he remembered everything he could see, and in this careful observation, he finally discovered a very subtle detail, or something strange.
That is, on the tail finger of the right hand of the dried corpse grasping the unknown plant, there is a short red silk thread, and it looks the same as the red silk thread on every leaf of the unknown plant, there is no difference, but the place where this red silk thread is located is very secret, almost imperceptible, and it is difficult to find it if you don't look closely.
And the reason why Lin Chen discovered the existence of this red silk thread was because the position he was standing at this time was the best observation point, and he could see it just right from here.
In Lin Chen's eyes, one end of this red silk thread was attached to the rhizome of an unknown plant, and it went deep into the ground along the stem, while the other end was wrapped around the tail finger of the dried corpse, and it looked like it had pierced through the person's skin and entered the flesh and blood.
Even at this moment, he could see that within the skin of the corpse's right hand and arm, there were many very faint red rays of light, which looked like dozens of branches that had appeared after this red thread had entered the human body.
"Could it be that this is the reason why this person has turned into a dried corpse in such a short period of time?", Lin Chen thought to himself, his brows furrowed tightly, and his face became a little more solemn.
As he followed the direction of the red thread, he quickly noticed something unusual on one of the six leaves of the unknown plant.
In Lin Chen's previous observations, there would be a red silk thread on each leaf of the unknown plant in front of him that was exactly the same as on the dried corpse, connecting the ground and every leaf, but now the red silk thread on the third leaf was gone, so it seemed a little out of place.
However, when he saw the location of the dried corpse's finger, Lin Chen had a guess in his heart, because its location was not far from the third leaf, and the tail finger was just pressed on the third red silk thread.
From this point of view, it is confirmed that this red silk thread connected to the dried corpse, and the red silk thread that broke through the skin of the dried corpse and entered the body was actually the red silk thread on the third leaf.
However, after this, Lin Chen could no longer find other useful information, and with his brows furrowed, he looked at the corpse of a mid-congenital cultivator who fell to the ground because of the aftermath of the battle between Hu Yong and Wang Jing.
When he saw that there was still flesh and blood on the corpse, which was completely different from the appearance of the dried corpse, a flash of realization flashed in Lin Chen's mind.
Then his brain worked rapidly, peeling back the cocoon from all the encounters he had encountered since he entered this place, gradually extracting the small information contained in it, and the light in his eyes became more and more.
There are two key information he knows at the moment, one of which is the emerald green light that appeared from an unknown plant, which has a terrifying power that can plunder the vitality of living beings in the air, as long as it is illuminated by this light, some of the vitality in the living beings' bodies will be taken away by it.
However, there was a considerable time interval between the appearance of this emerald green light, and it had only appeared once since they had entered this place, nearly an hour had passed.
For Lin Chen, before the next light appeared, he still had nearly an hour to think about the way to leave this place, which was undoubtedly good news at the moment.
The second is the red silk thread he found, although he didn't personally see the process of Hu Yong's companions turning into dried corpses, but from the differences between the four of them before, as well as the general situation of the corpses of the current mid-innate cultivators, he can make some of the most likely guesses.
I'm afraid that as long as he doesn't come into direct contact with an unknown plant, or is entangled in the red silk thread of an unknown plant, the less likely it is that he will be directly robbed of all life, and the longer he can survive.
After thinking about this, Lin Chen turned his gaze behind him, and saw that the white ant colony that was approaching him again still stopped when it was still five meters away from the unknown plant, and a bold idea suddenly flashed in his mind.
Although it is not known that these terrifying white ant colonies are related to this unknown plant, from all indications, it is clear that the queen ant who controls the ant colony has purposefully driven them here, so there must be a deeper reason for this.
Hu Yong and Wang Jing's faces were very ugly, but it was more due to the fear of this inexplicable plunder, which was already an unknown horror beyond the scope of their cognition, deeply engraved in the hearts of the two.
It was also at this time that Hu Yong and the two suddenly woke up to the unknown plant that had always been regarded as a rare treasure by the two of them, and what they wanted to monopolize it in their own hands was actually such a terrifying existence, and both of them had regrets in their hearts at the same time.
"Wang Jing, you should have also noticed the changes in your body, it seems that both of us are wrong, this is not a treasure that we have always wanted to fight for, but a life-killing thing", Hu Yong said in a deep voice, and his tone was a little better.
The aura on his body was also greatly reduced after being illuminated by the emerald green light, but he was still middle-aged, but there were several subtle wrinkles on his face, and his whole body looked like he was nearly ten years old.
With his current physical condition, even if he recovers to his heyday, he may not be able to reach the height that he was about to break through to the middle innate stage before.
Although Wang Jing was not like Hu Yong, his breathing was a lot heavier, and with his early innate cultivation, he showed a little discomfort, as if it was difficult to bear his current fat body.
"Hmph, it's too late to say this now, if we don't find another way out of here, we will end up like them", Wang Jing took a few deep breaths, looked at Hu Yong coldly and said, but from his tone, there was also a hint of loosening.
Lin Chen looked at the two Innate Realm powerhouses who were showing signs of truce at this time, and once again felt the magic of the world in his heart, but it made him feel the fickleness of people's hearts.
Because of their respective greed, their companions who have been with each other for decades turned against each other, and one of them died because of Wang Jing, but they did not feel any guilt and uneasiness, but took it for granted.
And now, in the face of a more desperate crisis, because of the desire to survive in his heart, he can show that he wants to cooperate to overcome the difficulties together.
"Junior, although we haven't paid too much attention to you, but you have been able to resist the aftermath of our fight several times, I think your strength is far higher than your cultivation, right now the three of us are in the same dangerous place, we don't know what your name is, you can also talk about it, what should we do next", Hu Yong turned to look at Lin Chen and said, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
From Hu Yong's words, Lin Chen already knew that his strength had been somewhat exposed, and then glanced at Wang Jing, who had the same expression, but his face was a little flattered.
"Senior, Lin Chen's cultivation is only the seventh day after tomorrow, and his strength is only so-so, and it is not as you said, the reason why he can resist the aftermath of the two seniors may be the reason here", Lin Chen bowed and smiled.
When Hu Yong heard the word Lin Chen, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he said in surprise: "Lin Chen, you fought against the two acquired six-fold geniuses of the Zhu family alone in Mocheng, and did not fall behind, but finally abolished them Lin Chen?"
