Chapter 42: Dangers lurking around
The black shadow looked at his men, entangled in these branches, trembled all over, and subconsciously hid behind them.
Why did so many branches suddenly appear?
Could it be that the movement just now disturbed the things here...
The black shadow speculated in his heart that he wanted to escape without caring about the safety of those people!
How could the three people from the Emperor Immortal Sect let him go so easily?
They nimbly avoided the branches heading towards them and attacked the shadows.
Waves of dazzling spiritual power hit the black shadow like a curtain of rain!
The black shadow couldn't dodge and was hit several times in the middle. His body lost control and he fell to the ground.
The hat on his body also fell apart at the same moment!
An ugly face appeared in front of the three people, with huge black lines all over his cheeks, making it difficult for people to see his true appearance.
But it gives people a particularly solemn feeling, like a special belief.
The black shadow was not expecting the current situation. He struggled to get up from the ground, trying to avoid the three people!
"You can't touch me, let alone kill me. Otherwise, you won't know who is behind the scenes?"
The black shadow moved his body and moved forward step by step, mumbling incessantly.
Zhou Ziruo raised her eyebrows and her eyes fell on the shadow man's face, with an inexplicable hint of disgust in his eyes.
These people are really, no wonder wearing such a cloak in broad daylight, they are simply ugly and cannot be seen by anyone!
Ling Zhiyu didn't react at all, but was wary of the surrounding branches, fearing that they would be preyed upon by these vines in the next second!
Xiao Yunyi carefully examined the lines on the black shadow's face. After a moment, he raised the long sword in his hand and touched it.
"Tell me, besides Gui Xiudong, who else could destroy my Xiao family? Where did you throw the secret order? Is there someone from the Seven Star Sect who colluded with you?"
A series of questions hit the black shadow, giving him no chance to breathe.
The black shadow stared closely at the sword edge hanging on his neck, and his skin trembled, as if he could feel the impending death all the time!
"..."
Xiao Yunyi's answer was endless silence.
The black shadow climbing on the ground suddenly took out something from his arms and disappeared into the jungle with lightning speed.
Seeing this, Xiao Yunyi stood up and wanted to chase after him, but was caught by Zhou Ziruo in time.
"Don't chase the poor guy. Since he didn't succeed, he will definitely come again. It's important to find the secret order first!"
After hearing this, he gave up his worries.
However, contrary to expectations, the Nascent Soul masters who were tightly entangled by the branch tried their best and accidentally offended the branch!
The three of them saw with their own eyes that the branches gradually tightened, and the faces of those people were filled with ferocious pain.
"Bang bang..."
Several crisp sounds in unison impacted the eardrums of the three people.
These Nascent Soul masters were killed by these things so easily!
An invisible alarm bell sounded in the minds of the three of them instantly!
I was extremely lucky that they could escape under this branch just now.
"This place is very weird. We need to find the secret order as soon as possible and get out of here!"
Zhou Ziruo couldn't wait to tell her!
There were only a few of them in the Emperor Immortal Sect. If something unexpected happened, he would not be able to explain it to his senior brother.
Ling Zhiyu and Xiao Yunyi followed behind, nodding obediently.
But before they could move, dense branches swept toward them, and the three of them hurriedly avoided them.
Unfortunately, this branch is too flexible and too thick.
With just a slight touch, the blood in the abdominal cavities of the three people almost spurted out!
The three of them were unexpectedly surprised by the situation in front of them!
"Sister, are we not in the wrong place? Why do you feel that this place is different from the designated place in the city?"
Xiao Yunyi made a few moves and immediately realized that the branches here were not like the ones they first met. It seemed that after being disturbed, murderous intent would emerge!
Zhou Ziruo avoided the branches while looking for a solution.
He didn't expect what Xiao Yunyi said.
The Twisted Forest has always been more dangerous than the legends outside!
In order to facilitate communication with the outside sects, those little tree demons found a relatively suitable place, at least they would not easily take the lives of the sect disciples!
The current place, including the branch that easily killed those Nascent Soul masters just now, made her have to wonder if they had come to the forbidden area of the Twisted Forest!
Outside the sect of the Twisted Forest, there is a forbidden area that everyone knows!
For so many years, it has never been open to any outside sect.
There are rumors that there is a thousand-year-old tree demon living in the forbidden area. Any unscrupulous person who enters will lose his life no matter how high his cultivation level is!
Zhou Ziruo couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine when he thought of this!
This group of people really tried their best to harm their Emperor Immortal Sect.
"No, we seem to have hit their forbidden area, let's get out first!"
She struggled for a moment, looked at Ling Zhiyu and Xiao Yunyi and made a decision.
"But the secret order..."
Ling Zhiyu was a little unwilling, she couldn't let her master down!
If they can't get the secret order, they have no way to go to the secret realm.
"It doesn't matter, the most important thing now is to protect you!"
Zhou Ziruo made up his mind and looked around, preparing to find the best route.
But those tree trunks refused to give up and chased the three of them, almost entangling them every time!
Thinking that the black shadow had passed through the jungle, Zhou Ziruo had an idea and led the three of them to rush through the original path of the black shadow.
For some reason, the vines that had been following them quickly retracted the moment they entered the jungle.
The swift appearance seemed to be particularly afraid of something.
The three of them had no time to think, and used their spiritual power to quickly move towards the exit.
Seeing the bright gap right in front of them, they could leave.
An invisible suction force spread inside the jungle, making the three people who were already at the junction of the two realms, trying their best to just stay where they were.
The three of them could even clearly see the disciples of the sect standing outside the gap!
They looked at the three people from the Emperor Immortal Sect in astonishment.
What's going on?
It has only been a short time, and the three of them have found the secret order and come out?
Everyone looked up and saw the three people struggling hard, with different expressions.
Some gloated, some were puzzled, and some were jealous...
Jin Xingchen stared at them, and when he saw that the three were still alive, his face was tense.
These people are really tough!
Even joining forces with the people behind Gui Xiudong, they couldn't get rid of them.
Hua Wuque was also standing among these sects. Seeing that the three people were unable to move forward or backward, he hurriedly stood out and pulled them, trying to pull them out.
But the force was really weak!
"Everyone, hurry up and help them out!"
Hua Wuque had no choice but to shout to the people from the surrounding sects to help him.
But these people turned a deaf ear and had no intention of helping at all.
All this was the fault of the Emperor Immortal Sect!
They had also suffered a lot, why should they help them?
