Fortunately, some of the copper coins could be recycled, so he would not squander.
“Looks like the water runs deep.” Xu Bai didn’t move. He was recovering in silence.
There was no progress bar at all, and he didn’t even find a single one.
“There aren’t even any animals here. “Liu Xu’s face was covered with a white veil. She walked lightly to Xu Bai’s side.”
“Looks like…l still have to go in personally.” Wu Hua said.
At this moment, Liu Xu shook her head.
“No need.”
The saying, ‘Don’t enter the woods,’ was not a joke. It was based on facts.
Liu Xu raised her hand and spread her fair fingers. A yellow paper crane appeared in her palm.
When the paper crane appeared, it flapped its wings and floated beside Liu Xu.
She was a scholar who had broken through to Rank-8 with the Paper Binding Secrets. Some of the evil abilities on it could be replicated using a scholar’s method.
Although it wasn’t much, it was enough to deal with the current situation.
The paper crane flew and slowly approached the forest.
When the paper crane reached the edge of the forest, it suddenly stopped.
Immediately after, a black fog rose from the ground and enveloped the original dense forest.
Roars came from the black fog.
The roar was filled with pain, collapse, sorrow, and other emotions. It was extremely ear-piercing.
In less than a breath’s time, the black fog gradually disappeared as if it had never appeared.
The paper crane was gone, and everything returned to normal.
Xu Bai turned his head and looked at Liu Xu.
“Strange, so strange!” Liu Xu took a deep breath and said,”ln just an instant, the paper crane was torn apart.'”‘
She couldn’t see much, but she could roughly sense that there were many strange things inside.
The paper crane disappeared in an instant. Its speed was ridiculously fast.
“The tree is already gone, so why is there something strange?”No Flower looked left and right, puzzled.
This forest had already been razed to the ground by Xu Bai, but the strangeness had appeared out of nowhere. Most importantly, it had only killed the paper crane that had flown in.
“It has already become strange?” Xu Bai was stunned for a moment, then he sighed in his heart.
He had originally guessed that after the Human-Faced Ancient Tree became strange, there would be no progress bar. It seemed like he was right.
“I’ve already cleared the area above. There’s still a strange existence, and it’s specially killing things that enter the forest. This proves that the strange is bound here.”
The strangeness of dying in a tree, being permanently imprisoned in the tree, only effective in a certain area. This was something he had learned from No Flower not long ago.
Now that the paper crane disappeared after entering, it matched this characteristic.
“The ground has been cleaned up, but there’s still underground.”Xu Bai said slowly.
He thought that since there was still the strangeness, there was still the Human-faced Ancient Tree.
The Human-faced Ancient Tree was also linked to the strangeness, and the strangeness was bound to that area. The tree was likely to still exist.
If the tree trunk was gone, what about the soil?
As Xu Bai finished speaking, the empty space in front of him changed.
“Weng…’
A series of sounds came from the ground. Then, the ground began to tremble slightly, and soil began to fly.
Cracks appeared on the ground, and they expanded like a spider web.
The remaining half of the tree stump began to topple over. The roots of the tree emerged from the stump and turned upside down.
The tree trunk was buried in the soil, and the roots stood in the air.
In the entire open space, the forest stood in an extremely strange shape.
At a glance, it was as if the entire land had been turned upside down.
The black gas continued to emerge. Not long after, translucent figures condensed one after another.
There were men and women, old and young.
Their bodies were covered in all kinds of wounds, and their deaths were extremely terrifying.
If a person died and turned into a strange being, they would retain their appearance before they died, which was called the death appearance.
This group of strange eyes were dull and cold. Each of them stood in front of a tree and stared at Xu Bai and the other two with cold eyes.
They did not take a single step forward, but it was as if someone had constructed an invisible wall that blocked them.
Those who die in trees are bound to trees.
“Indeed.” Xu Bai rubbed his chin and said, “It seems that this place is related to the Extreme Life Sect.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a response.
“Benefactor Xu, here… It’s spreading.” No Flower took a deep breath.
Xu Bai turned around and his pupils constricted.
When Xu Bai turned his head, he saw a change in the area.
The roots began to grow slowly, falling into the ground and then gradually spreading.
The speed of the spread was not fast, but every inch it spread, the monsters moved an inch in the direction of the spread.
Xu Bai looked in the direction of the spread and frowned.”
The way it spread was very strange. It didn’t spread out from the center, but directly towards the Yin Posthouse.
Xu Bai’s mind flashed, “Could it be that the ultimate goal of the Extreme Life
Sect…” Yin Posthouse?”
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he turned around and told Liu Xu and No Flower.
“If we let the strange envelop the Yin Posthouse, it would be even more troublesome than directly envelop the county. “Liu Xu’s eyes were filled with worry.”
The importance of the Yin Posthouse was self-evident. If it was engulfed by the strange, even if it was paralyzed for a moment, the losses would be immeasurable.
“This is just a promotion to a county. There are other counties with the Extreme Life Cult. “No Flower took a few steps forward and said, “Patrons, we can’t wait anv longer.”
He wanted to settle the matter here immediately and then go to the Yin Posthouse to spread the news.
This was the only way to let the others know what the Extreme Life Cult’s true purpose was.
“Don’t you think it’s strange?”Xu Bai suddenly said..
