519 Nightmare forest, travelling in the forest
Tang Zhen and the others didn’t have to wait for long before the elf cultivator who had entered the market earlier walked out.
At this moment, there were two foreign cultivators dressed as wild cultivators and more than a dozen foreign cultivators dressed as Lou Cheng’s cultivators behind him. They looked very respectful.
When Tang Zhen heard the discussions of the surrounding spectators, he knew that the middle-aged foreign being in the lead was the city Lord of this building.
After following the elven cultivator to Yue qianhua, the city Lord of normalou bowed and said a few words of flattery.
Yue qianhua’s face was indifferent as she replied with a few words. She turned her head and did not speak anymore. City Lord Lou also tactfully retreated to the side and gave a few instructions to the cultivators of Lou city.
“Since the guide has arrived, let’s set off!”
Yue qianhua ordered. The two foreign cultivators dressed as wild cultivators turned around and walked in the direction of nightmare forest.
Tang Zhen’s group immediately followed after seeing this. It did not take long before they entered the deep parts of the Emerald green forest.
When those exploration teams and mercenary groups that had been watching for a long time saw this, they hurriedly gave chase and followed Tang Zhen’s group from a distance.
Tang Zhen and the others had extraordinary strength. If they followed behind them, they might be able to enter the deeper parts of the nightmare forest. That way, their harvest would be even more abundant.
After entering the nightmare forest, Tang Zhen kept looking at the surrounding scenery.
Most of the plants in the nightmare forest were of strange shapes and sizes. The tree trunks were twisted and grotesque, like the faces of dying people. One look at them would give one a sense of eeriness.
Fortunately, the sunlight fell through the leaves of the trees, and the green carpet-like grass was very beautiful!
Unconsciously, that gloomy feeling disappeared, and the fresh air was inhaled into the lungs, making people feel relaxed and happy.
The guide in front was obviously very familiar with the nightmare forest. As they walked, he explained the dangers of the forest to everyone so that they could avoid them in advance.
“The scariest thing in the nightmare forest isn’t the monsters or poisonous insects, but the strange gray fog that appears out of thin air every night!”
The guide’s face revealed a hint of fear as he said this. He continued,”This gray fog can cause people to fall into an illusion unknowingly, luring them into a deathtrap without them knowing. This is also the origin of the nightmare forest’s name.
In order to avoid being attacked by the gray fog, you have to rest around the fire at night and never put out the flame. Otherwise, once you fall into an illusion, it will be difficult to survive!”
As he spoke, the guide pointed to a patch of grass not far away, asking everyone to pay attention.
There were traces of a bonfire on the grass, but there were many skeletons scattered around, and there were also pieces of clothing scattered around.
Some of the skeletons even had traces of being slashed by swords. It was obvious that both sides had killed each other.
Seeing everyone’s solemn expressions, the guide explained, ” these people were caught in an illusion after the bonfire went out. None of them survived!
The guide’s words were very general, but he kept reminding everyone to be careful.
Tang Zhen was listening by the side. His expression was indifferent and he did not ask why the bonfire had been extinguished.
Fatty didn’t take the guide’s warning seriously. At his level of cultivation, he was no longer afraid of ordinary illusions, so he didn’t take the guide’s warning to heart.
As for the other Holy Dragon City cultivators, there was no need to worry too much, because they had evil-warding and exorcism equipment on them.
Whether it was the demon-killing saber, the metal forehead guard, or even the spiritual Jade that everyone had, they all had the ability to exorcise demons and break illusions. As long as he was careful, he should not be in any danger.
Tang Zhen didn’t need to care about the others.
After walking for about three hours, the path under their feet began to disappear. The trees in front of them also began to grow taller and weirder. From time to time, the howls of monsters could be heard.
The sunlight that had been like gold shards was now unable to penetrate the dense forest, causing the atmosphere in the forest to become even more gloomy.
A giant insect monster with a pitch-black shell suddenly shot out from the dead leaves and pounced straight at an elf cultivator. Its long needle-like mouthpart was about to Pierce her body.
The elf cultivator was caught off guard and was about to die on the spot.
“Bang!”
After a muffled gunshot, a watermelon-sized hole appeared in the strange insect’s head, and green mucus splattered everywhere!
The giant worm was naturally killed on the spot, and the elf cultivator was lucky enough to escape. He patted his chest with lingering fear.
Turning to look at the Holy Dragon City cultivator who had come to their rescue, the pretty elf walked forward and bowed slightly. Then, she carefully sized up the Holy Dragon City cultivator who had fired the gun.
Although this cultivator’s entire face was covered, one could tell from his eyes that he wasn’t old.
The Holy Dragon City cultivator who had saved them nodded expressionlessly. He had done it casually just now, so he did not take it to heart.
The female elf cultivator who had been saved blushed. She looked at him deeply before returning to the front.
However, those who were observant would notice that the female fairy cultivator would turn around from time to time, sizing up the Holy Dragon City cultivator who had saved her.
When the fatty saw this, his eyes brightened as if he had discovered something interesting. He immediately moved closer to the Holy Dragon City cultivator.
This guy had a wretched expression on his face as he whispered something into the Holy Dragon City cultivator’s ear. The other party’s face was red and he seemed to be at a loss.
Tang Zhen lightly smiled upon seeing this. He didn’t need to listen to know that this damn fatty was definitely teaching that young Holy Dragon City cultivator, teaching him the experience of seducing that female fairy.
Ever since they had encountered the strange insect, everyone had been on high alert. During this period, they had encountered more than ten monsters, all of which were killed by the Holy Dragon City cultivators.
When a River blocked their way, the guide finally stopped and led the group to a clean Rest Camp.
Up until now, they were only at the edge of the nightmare forest, and there was still a long way to go before they reached their destination.
After that, they would rest here for a while, then cut down trees to make boats, and continue their journey downstream.
Tang Zhen took a look at the raft made of trees. After hearing that it would have to float in the river for at least three days, he immediately stopped the Holy Dragon City cultivators who were preparing to cut down the trees.
At this moment, there was a pleasure boat that he had prepared in advance in his storage card. It could sail freely in the river, which was more than ten meters deep.
Since there was such a convenient thing, why suffer the pain?
It looked quite poetic to take a raft, but when one really sat on it, one would find that the space for movement was extremely narrow. Not only was it limited for rest and work, but the speed was also extremely slow.
It was fine to play with it normally, but if it was used to travel, Tang Zhen would definitely not choose this thing!
When the guide heard Tang Zhen’s words, he stopped building the raft and ran to the forest to pick edible mushrooms.
However, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He did not know how Tang Zhen would solve the problem of the transportation tool.
Yue qianhua, who was standing by the side, did not say anything. She knew that Tang Zhen’s methods were mysterious. This kind of thing was not difficult for him at all.
Since Tang Zhen had already spoken, he would handle this matter.
Not long after, the two guides returned to the camp. The cloth bag was filled with a lot of edible fungi, and the Holy Dragon City cultivators also brought back a fat prey that looked like a deformed ostrich.
Tang Zhen walked to the Riverside and took a look. He extended his hand and suddenly grabbed. Soon after, the sound of water was heard. A large fish that was nearly two meters long appeared to be pulled by an invisible large hand as it directly landed on the grass in front of everyone.
