Chapter 700 Strange Forest
Chapter 700 Strange Forest
"This…" Guchang's face became solemn. The scene before him was a black land full of dead trees. It could easily imagine this place should be an exuberant forest before turning into this dead forest.
"Look at that." Mu Qiuxue pointed at the west side, making everyone look over.
Yun Lintian's brows raised in surprise upon seeing the scene. It was a group of lush greenery, seemingly unaffected by the Abyssal Energy. However, when he looked closer, he discovered a transparent barrier blocking the Abyssal Energy from moving forward.
"Let's take a look." Yun Lintian said and rushed in that direction, followed by others.
As they drew closer, the rustling sound they had heard previously grew louder. The source of the sound was actually coming from the Abyssal Energy hitting the barrier.
Yun Lintian stopped his movement a few steps away and took out a bucket of Profound Spirit Liquid. He didn't hesitate to pour them onto the Abyssal Energy in front of the barrier.
Zzzii…
As if it met a nemesis, the group of Abyssal Energy swayed violently, trying to fight back, but the power of the Profound Spirit Liquid was too strong. In two breaths, all the Abyssal Energy around the barrier vanished utterly.
Guchang and Mu Qiuxue were stunned by Yun Lintian's action. They were aware of how precious the Profound Spirit Liquid was, yet Yun Lintian threw them away as if they were worthless water.
Yun Lintian ignored their reactions and went straight to the barrier. When he got closer, he suddenly felt soothing energy emitting out of the barrier. It made him relax and calm, just like when he went to a national park in the past life.
Yun Lintian looked through the barrier and saw a dense forest in the distance. The forest was lush, filling with various types of trees he had never seen before. Several small animals could be seen in the trees and behind the bushes. They looked over at Yun Lintian with great curiosity. Perhaps this was the first time someone had visited this place.
Guchang, Mu Qiuxue, and Fan arrived beside Yun Lintian and looked at the scene in surprise. The Western Continent was full of forests everywhere, but none of them could be compared to the forest before them.
"Big Brother Yun, I don't feel any danger from this barrier. Maybe we can go in." Linlin said. She had now returned to her original White Tiger appearance.
"Really?" Yun Lintian glanced at the barrier in doubt. He hesitated briefly and reached his hand out to touch it.
Surprisingly, his hand could pass through the barrier without harm. It was as though there was nothing before him.
Yun Lintian retracted his hand and asked. "Senior, can you try it?"
Guchang nodded and reached his hand out. Similar to Yun Lintian, his hand effortlessly passed through the barrier without harm.
Seeing this, Mu Qiuxue and Fan had also tried it. The result was the same—the barrier didn't block them.
"Let's go inside." Yun Lintian made a decision and went in, followed by others.
As soon as they stepped onto the forest's side, a gentle breeze immediately blew on everyone's face. They suddenly felt their spirits had been refreshed. All the fatigues they had before miraculously vanished.
"What kind of fairy place is this?" Fan blurted out in shock.
"The richness of the profound energy here is really high. Much higher than the outside." Mu Qiuxue said in amazement.
One had to know that the Western Continent could be considered second to the Central Continent in terms of the richness of the profound energy. Yet, this place was even better than that. It could easily be compared to the Central Continent.
Guchang tried to absorb the profound energy and discovered he could absorb it smoothly. It was similar to the time he drank Profound Spirit Liquid directly. This place was simply heaven for a profound practitioner.
Yun Lintian took a deep breath, inhaling fresh air, and said. "Let's go."
Everyone nodded and slowly moved into the forest.
While Yun Lintian's group was entering the forest, Du Huanfeng's group was still finding a way out of the white mist.
Within the cauldron, Du Huanfeng's brows knitted together. He had traveled for more than an hour, yet he couldn't find north or south even now. He fully believed that Yun Lintian was still wandering in this sea of white mist.
"Young Master, why don't we go all the way in one direction?" Du San said after a brief hesitation.
"Are you teaching me to do things?" Du Huanfeng frowned. "I know. But I don't think Mu Chen's group can get out of this place. They must be somewhere around here."
Du San's lips twitched and went silent.
Rustle—
All of a sudden, a rustling sound could be heard from a far distance ahead. Du Huanfeng's eyes narrowed, and he didn't hesitate to control the cauldron forward at full speed.
A few minutes later, they rushed out of the white mist and appeared on the black land.
"Abyssal Energy?" Du San said in surprise.
Du Huanfeng frowned and kept looking around. He controlled the cauldron to follow the rustling sound direction and arrived at the transparent barrier Yun Lintian had found earlier.
"Strange. How did the Abyssal Energy appear here?" Du Huanfeng muttered to himself.
He had recognized the forest ahead of him as he had come here several times in the past. However, he didn't understand how Abyssal Energy could appear in this place. Judging by its appearance, this Abyssal Energy should appear here a few years ago.
"This white mist is like a formation. It restricts the Abyssal Energy from leaking to the outside." Du San expressed his thoughts after watching the white mist behind him.
Du Huanfeng nodded in agreement. However, it wasn't the time to think about it. Now, he had to find Yun Lintian as soon as possible because once Yun Lintian entered the forest, it was almost impossible for him to find Yun Lintian, counting how extensive and complicated the forest was.
"Young Master, look at the ground before the barrier." Du San suddenly said.
Du Huanfeng glanced at the black soil that seemed to lose its Abyssal Energy and saw a trace of the footsteps.
Du Huanfeng didn't think about it further and jumped out of the cauldron with everyone, rushing into the forest.
