Only ten miles out of the Weeping Blood City, Zhou Tianci saw the endless forest in the south, under the sunset, countless mountains, rocks and trees gathered into the sea, and the black ocean was like a giant beast lurking, with a breathtaking power.

Zhou Tianci's predecessor, Zhou Shi, joined the army five years ago and did not experience the beast tide, and on weekdays, the Blood War Legion was mainly to defend against the Golden Wolf Empire, so Zhou Shi had never been to the wild forest. Because of this, Zhou Tianci did not have a deep impression of the wild forest. When he saw a corner of the wild forest with his own eyes, Zhou Tianci understood why there were so many legends here.

"Is this the Wild Forest?" Looking at the tree that was more than 100 meters high, Zhou Tianci sighed at the magic of the creation of this world.

"Captain, this is only the edge of the Savage Forest, strictly speaking, it is not a Savage Forest. Chen Xiangrong, the leader of Zhou Tianci's team, stepped forward and said, "Another 40 miles forward is the wild forest!"

Chen Xiangrong is the leader of the second squad under Zhou Tianci, and he has the cultivation of the peak in the middle of the day after tomorrow. This person used to have a lukewarm attitude towards Zhou Tianci, but since Zhou Tianci became famous in the first battle of the bloody battle, he began to take the initiative to take refuge and offered his hospitality in front of Zhou Tianci from time to time.

"Chen Xiangrong, have you ever been to the Savage Forest?" Zhou Tianci asked.

Chen Xiangrong nodded lightly: "When the beast tide happened seven years ago, I went in. At the time, I really thought I wouldn't be able to come back, but luckily the beast tide lasted for a short time and was not large, which allowed me to save my life. ”

Zhou Tianci suddenly became interested: "Since you have experienced the beast tide, do you know why the beast tide occurs here every once in a while?"

"This kind of thing, that's what I can know......" Chen Xiangrong smiled bitterly.

Zhou Tianci is right to think about it, Chen Xiangrong probably just joined the army seven years ago, what can he know?

"But ......," Chen Xiangrong hesitated.

"Say whatever you want. Zhou Tianci said.

Chen Xiangrong said: "Captain, about the cause of the beast tide, I have heard a rumor, but it is only a rumor. I heard that since the establishment of Weeping Blood City, the beast tide has occurred periodically, as if there is something inside the wild forest that can cause the panic of the beasts. This rumor has been circulating in Weeping Blood City for a long time, and many people know about it. ”

Zhou Tianci nodded, he was not very interested in the reason for the occurrence of the beast tide. However, he sensed that there was something unusual behind the beast tide.

"If it's just to defend against the tide of beasts, why would Liu Yuntao take action personally? I don't believe that the Dayu Congress will mobilize 23 elite legions for the sake of those villages scattered in the wilderness. When the beast tide occurred, there must have been great interests in this wild forest that attracted Liu Yuntao!"

"Brother Huang, Liu Yuntao's hand is so good that he actually threw all the defenses of Weeping Blood City to us. "In the Yellow Mansion of Weeping Blood City, a middle-aged man in a green robe is playing against Huang Shuyi.

"It's really unexpected for us, I don't know what Brother Zhang has to deal with?" Huang Shuyi said.

Playing against Huang Shuyi is the Zhang family, one of the four major families in Weeping Blood City, advocating Yuliang. The four major families advanced and retreated together when dealing with Liu Yuntao, but they were not monolithic internally, and were basically divided into two factions. The Huang family and the Zhang family have many marriages, which can be regarded as one faction, and the Wang family and the Zhao family have linked interests and are the other.

Zhang Yuliang shook his head slightly: "This time Liu Yuntao used a yang strategy, he expected that we would not be able to afford to lose Crying Blood City." Liu Yuntao came to Weeping Blood City because he was ordered by the royal family to completely control Weeping Blood City. The current Dayu State Lord Yan Xiong's means are much stronger than the previous State Lord, judging from his actions in Weeping Blood City, Yan Xiong must have integrated the other eleven states. In that case, he would never let Weeping Blood City get out of his control. ”

Huang Shuyi bowed his head slightly, he had the same opinion as Zhang Yuliang.

"In this way, my four major families will be in danger. Huang Shuyi worried.

"Indeed, although there have been several inactive lords of the Dayu Kingdom, the Yan family is a royal family after all, and we are not opponents at all. Fortunately, there are other families and sects that hold us back, otherwise we don't have the slightest chance. Even now, our crisis is not small. Liu Yuntao led 23 elite legions into the wild forest, leaving us to guard the Weeping Blood City, in case the Weeping Blood City was broken, he only had to retreat to Jiangzhou, and then wait for the Golden Wolf Empire to loot and recover the Weeping Blood City. Although there will be a lot of losses in this way, the biggest losses are still our four major families. When the time comes, a Liu Yuntao will be able to clean us up. And if we leave heavy troops to guard Weeping Blood City, it will be difficult to compete with Liu Yuntao in the wild forest, and the loss is also very large, what a good strategy. Zhang Yuliang sighed.

"The so-called lesser of two evils, we can only follow Liu Yuntao's pace this time, leaving 15 elite legions to defend the city. Huang Shuyi said, "But if Liu Yuntao wants to monopolize the benefits of the Wild Forest, it won't be easy!"

"Haha, exactly! This time, let's let Liu Yuntao see who is the master of Weeping Blood City!" Zhang Yuliang laughed.

......

The Blood Legion marched fast, and an hour later, the entire legion had entered the Savage Forest.

"What a rich aura!" As soon as he stepped into the wild forest, Zhou Tianci felt different, the aura here was much thicker than that of Weeping Blood City, and the ubiquitous vitality seemed to stimulate his body at all times, making him feel as if he was soaking in a hot spring.

"I've heard that there are countless villages at the northern end of the wild forest, and it's not for nothing. Zhou Tianci said in his heart.

The arrival of the Northwest Legion woke up a large area of the forest, and the military spirit of the 23 legions was like a halberd like a sword, making the surrounding beasts flee in a hurry. An eyeless beast approached, and in an instant, it was shot a hundred feet away.

After staying for a while, Zhou Tianci received an order to take his brigade along Yutou Mountain to meet the fleeing villagers.

"Yutou Mountain?" Zhou Tianci found Chen Xiangrong, "Do you know?"

Chen Xiangrong did not disappoint him: "This is a branch of the Black Dragon Mountain Range, the largest mountain range at the northern end of the Savage Forest, which is about 60 miles away from our current location. ”

"Since you know, then lead the way!" Zhou Tianci said, he came from the era of star civilization, attached great importance to humanitarianism, and now he wants to save people, Zhou Tianci does not dare to delay time.

"Yes!"

More than 200 people, led by Chen Xiangrong, headed towards Yutou Mountain, but in the forest, their speed was several times slower.

"There is no way to carve out a road in the wild forest. Chen Xiangrong saw Zhou Tianci's anxious look, and took the initiative to explain, "This place is extremely suitable for the growth of plants and trees, even if it takes a lot of effort to open up the passage, within two days, the passage will be flooded with new plants and trees." ”

"Every time those mountain people come to Weeping Blood City, do they also take such a road?" Zhou Tianci looked at the dense trees and endless vines around him, and stomped under his feet, shaking a lurking three-tailed scorpion to death.

"However, according to the habit of the mountain people, it is generally two to three months to come to the city of weeping blood. ”

It took a full hour for the group to move forward for 20 miles, and there were still 40 miles away from the destination.

"It's too slow...... Let all the fighters above the middle of the day after tomorrow be responsible for clearing the way and speed up!"

Zhou Tianci took the lead in walking in the front, he waved the halberd, the halberd wind swept away the vines within a zhang around, and the snakes, insects, rats and ants hidden under the vines could not escape death. Seeing Zhou Tianci personally going into battle, Qi Shan, Chen Xiangrong and others naturally did not dare to be idle, and immediately went to the front to open the way.

Among the more than 200 people in the first brigade, there are 17 warriors above the middle of the day after tomorrow, and under the leadership of Zhou Tianci, these 17 people formed a sharp arrow, which greatly increased the speed of the team's march.

Half an hour later, Chen Xiangrong panted and suggested: "Captain, let's rest, we are only more than 10 miles away from Yutou Mountain." ”

Zhou Tianci looked around, and saw that Qi Shan and the others were sweating profusely and lacked strength, so he said: "It's okay, rest for a quarter of an hour, and then rush to Yutou Mountain in one go." ”

"The captain is worthy of being praised by the commander as an invincible powerhouse, and the opening of the road for more than half an hour has not been consumed much. Qi Shan looked at Zhou Tianci in surprise, and couldn't help but admire when he saw that he looked free and breathed as usual.

Zhou Tianci is not without consumption, but his physical strength is replenished faster. In the opening of the path just now, Zhou Tianci felt that there was something very beneficial to him in this wild forest, not aura, but the essence of plants and trees.

"I used to think that I could only devour beasts, but now it seems that I can devour even plants. ”

In this way, while opening the way, Zhou Tianci devoured the essence of the plants and trees in the forest, and his strength not only did not decrease, but was enhanced. If it goes on like this, let alone half an hour, even if it is twelve hours, Zhou Tianci does not need to rest.

When Chen Xiangrong and the others resumed their meditation, Zhou Tianci arranged for some people to be on guard around him, and he also calmed down to cultivate.

"This wild forest is truly a blessed land, although I can't rise as quickly as the energy of devouring beasts here, but it is better to last. It is full of plant and tree spirits, which can be described as endless. If this continues, half a month to a month will be enough for me to achieve the day after tomorrow!" Zhou Tianci said with secret joy.

Zhou Tianci also discovered that devouring the essence of plants and trees could nourish his primordial spirit, and this effect was stronger than devouring fierce beasts. While cultivating, whirlpools appeared around Zhou Tianci that could not be seen by the naked eye, and the endless grass and tree essence in the forest poured into his body. At the same time, Zhou Tianci's Yuan Shen also received great benefits.

"There seems to be movement ahead!" Half an hour later, Zhou Tianci seemed to hear something, he immediately got up, turned back to Qi Shan and the others and said, "What happened in front, I'll take a look, you wait for my news." ”

Qi Shan and the other five looked at Zhou Tianci's disappearing figure and looked at each other.

"Did you hear anything?" Qi Shan asked.

"Nope. ”

Zhou Tianci ran through the forest, and after walking for half a mile, he finally heard the sound of many men and women crying in front of them. Zhou Tianci realized that he was afraid that he had run into fleeing mountain people.
