Chapter 1377: Mysterious Jade Bone (Part 1)
Now Shen Xiang is faced with a difficult decision: to go into the forest or turn around and leave.
Once you enter the forest, you may not be able to get out, because several powerful teammates of Yue Baishan, the old antique, have gone in and have not come out, and he has also been waiting here for hundreds of thousands of years.
Even a strong man like Yue Baishan couldn't deal with the danger inside, let alone him.
But if he didn't go in, he wouldn't be able to obtain the beast-killing technique, and this trip would be in vain. Moreover, he felt that there was not only the beast-killing technique inside, but maybe also the lid of the divine tripod.
"Even the Dan Emperor hasn't come out since he went in, and Yue Baishan is much weaker than the Dan Emperor. What kind of crisis is hidden in there?" Shen Xiang frowned and thought.
"Maybe you can get out? Although you are much weaker than those guys, you are different from them, and you have mastered some killing techniques of heaven and earth. Maybe the things on you can allow you to go to that place unimpeded." Long Xueyi said. She was unwilling to let Shen Xiang give up here. It took a lot of effort to get here. After coming to this place once, he didn't want to come to this place a second time.
"Young man, do you want to go in?" Yue Baishan saw Shen Xiang considering it. He didn't expect that Shen Xiang actually wanted to go in.
"Of course, I came here for this, although I just found out that there is a beast-killing technique in it." Shen Xiang said while holding the map.
Shen Xiang has made a decision. He wants to go in. Sometimes you have to take certain risks to gain something.
Suddenly, a violent gust of wind came from afar. Yue Baishan waved his hand gently to clear it away, then frowned and looked into the sky in the distance: "The fight has started again!"
This is the battle between the Black Tortoise Beast and a powerful Night Demon. Shen Xiang had seen the Black Tortoise Beast before.
Shen Xiang discovered that the violent air wave did not cause any damage to the ancient forest in front, which showed that the ancient forest was protected by a mysterious force.
"If you want to go in, I won't stop you. I hope you can come out. Take care!" Yue Baishan seemed to be accustomed to such things. This made Shen Xiang think that Yue Baishan might have stopped many people from entering the forest over the years, but most of them did not listen to him.
"Well, I will try my best to find the people who are still alive inside." Shen Xiang clasped his fists to Yue Baishan, then turned around and ran into the ancient forest.
Just as Shen Xiang entered the ancient forest, the sky suddenly darkened, and night demons were flying everywhere in the sky. However, they did not dare to approach the ancient forest, let alone Yue Baishan.
Not long after Shen Xiang entered the ancient forest, he heard the Night Demon's shouting from outside. After so many days, he had gotten used to it, and he also calculated that it would be dark not long after he came in.
Not long after he heard the cries of the night demons, something surprising happened. The voices of the night demons suddenly became lower and lower. As he continued, the voices of the night demons gradually disappeared, which made him wonder if he had heard it wrong.
"What's going on?" Shen Xiang immediately used his spiritual astrology technique. He wanted to see if there were any night demons flying in the sky, but his soul couldn't fly out.
"This ancient forest is really strange. My magical power cannot help me fly out of this forest, and I feel like this forest is spinning." Long Xueyi said.
Shen Xiang immediately turned around and wanted to walk out of the ancient forest, but no matter how he turned, the direction did not change.
In order to identify whether he had gone in the wrong direction, he placed a fairy crystal on the ground and then turned around, but no matter how he turned, the fairy crystal was always on the ground in front of him.
What's even more strange is that when he walked backwards, he was actually moving forward, making people feel as if the whole earth was rolling. He now had no way to retreat and could only move forward.
"Am I in a formation? If it is, then I can break it!"
Shen Xiang was very calm at this time. He continued to walk forward, but he was very alert, because what Yue Baishan said was true, the safe route was not safe here. Now he began to admire Yue Baishan. In this situation, Yue Baishan could still run away, but he couldn't do it now.
Originally the forest was pitch black, but since he could no longer hear the cries of the night demons, it gradually became brighter. He felt that the day and night time in this forest should have returned to normal.
"Am I in an illusion? These things are so real!" Shen Xiang passed by a tree, touched it with his hand, and pinched his fingernails into it, causing some sap to come out of the trunk.
"Everything in this forest is real." Long Xueyi said with certainty, because Shen Xiang broke off some branches and put them into the Youyao Ring. If it was an illusion, those branches would not exist at all. Once they entered the Youyao Ring, they would disappear.
However, Long Xueyi and the other three girls in the Youyao Ring could feel very real branches and leaves. Su Meiyao also analyzed the age of the tree and found that it had existed for millions of years. This was because the life force contained in the sap had been deposited for a long time and was easy to see.
"There shouldn't be any danger in here, otherwise these big trees wouldn't have existed for so long." Su Meiyao said.
If a battle had broken out, this ancient forest would have been destroyed long ago, but now it has survived intact for millions of years, or even longer, which shows that battles rarely occur in the forest.
But Shen Xiang still had to be vigilant, because if he encountered anything, he could only move forward.
He walked very slowly, and after about an hour, he suddenly saw a skeleton under a tree in front of him that was bigger than the surrounding tree.
The snow-white bones still emit a faint white glow even in the daytime. When you get closer and take a look, you will feel that these bones are like naturally formed white jade.
"This guy must have a very strong body. I didn't expect him to die here!" Long Xueyi said, "The skeleton turned into white jade. It is evolving into the form of a jade dragon."
"Oh? Are my bones like this now?" Although Shen Xiang could look inside himself, he could not see the specific appearance of his bones.
"It's still a long way to go. Your bones are at most strong now, but if you encounter a magical weapon, they can still be cut off. However, it is difficult to break the jade bone in front of you. If you don't believe me, try it." Long Xueyi said.
The person who died here was very strong, maybe he was Yue Baishan's friend, but Shen Xiang could be sure that this was a man because his bones were relatively thick and he could tell at a glance.
Although this was somewhat disrespectful to the deceased, Shen Xiang only intended to try the finger part.
He took out the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword and the Divine Craftsman's Hammer, then placed the detached finger bone on the hammer and chopped it down fiercely with the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword. He felt that even if it was a saint-level refining material, it would be broken by such a hit.
After a loud bang was heard, Shen Xiang was surprised, because the tiny finger bone was not cut off, and there was not even a trace!
