The [Psychedelic Forest] located in the central part of the Ionia continent is located in the rain forest zone in the north of [Gahe Mountain] and in the south of [Dragon's Back Mountain]. Except for the occasional Ionian people who can be seen moving around the periphery,
, there are almost no traces of human beings. The deep part of the rainforest in the basin with steep terrain is an uninhabited forbidden area belonging to Ionia. Even the Vastayans cannot easily pass through the spiritual maze deep in the rainforest.
Return to Omikayalan, the sacred land of Vastaya Shari.
With the help of the fast-flying Sia, it took Lester and Lingjue less than half an hour to reach the depths of the psychedelic forest. At this location, there was basically no sign of human activity, which was okay.
We saw some of the Vastaya lizards and feathered people living deep in the jungle, as well as the beasts themselves living in the deep jungle.
The dragon bird landed on the tall tree crown with difficulty. Due to the excessive tree density, the huge Xia could not land at all. He could only put the two of them on the tree crown and comforted the lost dragon bird princess until Xi Ya
Ya understood her arrangement and flew away again. Lester and Lingjue awkwardly climbed from the tree crown to the ground while holding the thick trunk.
As soon as they entered the dense forest, they could no longer see the bright sunshine. Mosquitoes the size of fingers and forest poisonous creatures scurrying around all opened their teeth and moved away from the landing point of the two people, just because Lester pulled out the evil spirit.
Moon roses, among other things, are very useful in repelling mosquitoes.
"Actually, I don't really recommend that you pull out this vicious blade, because it can easily attract inexplicable hostility. Of course, they will definitely not be your opponent, but this dense forest will definitely not welcome a human who kills at will in the dense forest.
of."
"You are right, we should use softer methods to drive away poisonous insects."
After putting away the moon rose, Lester chose to use frost to protect his body, and his spiritual sense used the soul blade to prop up a magic shield, which was simple and practical.
For ordinary people, the deadly swamps and poisons cannot cause any harm to the two of them. The beasts living in the rain forest seem to know that the intruders are difficult to deal with, and they all choose to flee elsewhere. This makes the two people's journey
It went much smoother.
After walking for more than half an hour, I saw that the trees were getting taller and taller, and the sun-blocking forest shades and unchanging green made the environment depressing. From deeper, an unknown beast roared, as if to warn the two of them.
Leave immediately.
Naturally, he didn't care about the warnings from the depths of the rainforest. The maliciousness from the environment gradually increased. With quick eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed the small purple snake that came towards him and threw it away into the distance. The man did not kill the deadly poisonous snake.
"Elena's father is a hunter who lives in the psychedelic forest. She has learned how to survive in such an environment since she was a child. When she grew up, she was accepted as a disciple by Master Harris by coincidence, and learned how to collect breath from the master.
Her agility and camouflage are enough to allow her to easily blend into such a harsh environment. There are not many people like Elena in the Kinkou Sect. The mental maze that can be found this time is all
Elena’s credit.”
"Lingjue, how do you think I should thank Elena?"
Lester said casually, and his cold right foot froze the mud under his feet, killing the locusts and leeches in the mud.
"This requires you to talk to her in person. I just told the Kinkou cultivators everything about you. Who is willing to put in the effort and risk their lives to search for the spiritual maze in such a dangerous place is all voluntary... But your
Your charm is also great enough. Many female believers started to pay attention to you when you first went to the temple. I heard that you single-handedly exorcised the real demon queen, and some people even asked me about your marriage status..."
Shaking his head in amusement, Lingjue teased.
"Elena is also one of them, maybe I should be a matchmaker for a while?"
After gently hitting Ling Jue's chest, Lester was speechless.
Was the first generation of Twilight Eyes so cool? How come it was passed down to the later generation and turned out to be a rigid idiot?
If there is no problem with blood, then it is a problem with education.
"Emotions should not be used as bargaining chips, not to mention, I am not ready to start a new relationship."
Knowing that Lester had not yet gotten over the grief of Xiyue's departure, Lingjue stopped joking and changed the topic.
"I think your Kirigakure flow's Gensuki is very good. Can you let her join the Kinkou Sect? When you leave, the Kinkou Sect can also take care of the Kirigakure flow. Not to mention carrying it forward, at least the inheritance will not be cut off."
"What, you have a crush on Huanxue?"
Being squinted by Lester, Lingjue quickly shook his hand to deny it.
"As you said, I still have three fiancées at home waiting for me to get married. How can I have any other energy to consider other women? I just saw that under your guidance, the strength of that girl Huanxue has surpassed that of most of the Kinkou believers, and
How should I put it...I feel that that girl is different from me. She should be able to kill those who disrupt the balance..."
Pointing at the soul blade behind him, Lingjue laughed at himself.
"Don't look at me. I'm already quite old. It's no problem for me to get rid of some evil spirits and spirits in the spiritual realm. But if you want me to kill someone, I'm afraid I still won't be able to do it."
"You don't want to get your hands dirty, so you choose to let Huanxue's hands be stained with blood? I have to say, you are really despicable."
"You are wrong. I will not force her to do such a thing, but what if she is willing? Some people are born to kill.
Under the same circumstances, some people don't even dare to kill a chicken, but some people can kill the puppies they raised without any psychological burden. I'm not saying that Huanxue is a ruthless person, but
If I read it correctly, she is a little indifferent to life and doesn't mind her sickle being stained with blood, as long as she upholds integrity and justice in her heart and doesn't let herself get lost in the pleasure of killing."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It makes sense to hear what you say. That girl Huanxue is indeed not an ordinary person, she is a born killer. However, I can't decide whether she is willing to join the Kinkou Sect.
Make a decision, Lingjue, no matter what the outcome is, you must respect her choice."
"Of course, I never force others, and if she is willing to join, as long as she can overwhelm the other Kinkou cultists, I can make her the second leader of the Kinkou cultists. She was trained by you personally."
"The second leader said it nicely. You just want to be lazy and don't want to run around. After all, the work of killing is more troublesome than managing a sect to some extent."
Lester rolled his eyes and killed the giant forest anaconda that flew down from the tree with a single knife. Lester put the blood-stained moon rose into its sheath. When he pulled it out again, the dark red blade was originally flowing with blood.
Having already returned to its original shape, looking at the anaconda broken into two parts, Lester found that the anaconda's blood had withered.
It seems that the blood-sucking enchantment mentioned by the blacksmith Herak is not empty talk.
"If she has the ability to manage the sect, I will naturally not take over the power. After all, I founded the Balance Sect to maintain the balance between the two worlds, not to become the leader of a certain force. Otherwise, the warriors of the Aikaxiu family would be enough for me to command.
There’s no need to go all the way to the south and work so hard to establish a sect.”
Lingjue patted Lester on the shoulder angrily: "Then it's settled? Whether she joins or refuses, I respect her choice."
Nodding, Lester said.
"Lingjue, the first leader and the second leader don't sound good. Why don't you come up with a good name? For example, Twilight's Cataract, Shadow's Little Fist, etc."
"cataract?"
Lingjue was a little confused: "What do you mean?"
"It's a very powerful eye magic that makes your eyes emit a breathtaking white light. Every time you look into the spiritual realm, your eyes look like cataracts. They are very handsome."
After carefully observing the smiling man in front of him, Lingjue confirmed what he was thinking.
"Don't lie to me, you are definitely not saying nice things...but the word twilight does suit me very well."
Along the way, the two left the scope of the rain forest. The road under their feet changed from mud swamps to grass and bushes. It began to become easier to walk, but the constant chirping of insects and whispers of birds and beasts in their ears also became more and more intense.
Less and less, until it fades away completely into a dead silence,
Following Lingjue, he stopped under a giant tree. Lingjue glanced at the eye-like logo carved on the trunk, frowned, and looked around.
"It's right here, the mark is also here, but Elena is missing."
Perceiving the flow of mantra nearby, Lester found nothing. Until it transformed into magic perception, a dim light band extended from the trunk of the tree to the deeper part of the dense forest. Lester looked deeper into the dense forest, only to find that the scenery was
It began to become blurry, and then his eyes began to feel dizzy, and the man could only temporarily withdraw from the magical vision.
"If I read it correctly, she should have already entered. There is a mental maze in front of her. It is possible that something lured her in."
"Then let's go, let's find her together."
As soon as Ling Jue took a step forward, Lester grabbed Ling Jue's arm with a serious look on his face.
"Lingjue, the situation here is unknown. I can get lost, and Elena can get lost, but you can't. The Kinkou Sect has just been established, and even the temple has not been repaired yet. If you are also lost in it, your hard work will
All efforts will be in vain. Karma is unwilling to interfere with the development of the world and the two worlds. The Kinkou is the only guardian of Ionia. Are you really ready to lose everything?"
Listening to Lester's heavy voice, Lingjue felt that his heart was heavy. He had put in so much effort to get to where he is today. If he really couldn't get out of the maze, then the Kinkou Sect would definitely suffer because of the loss.
The backbone will completely collapse, and more than ten years of hard work will be in vain.
However, Elena was lost because of herself after all. If she could not shoulder the responsibility of saving Elena, how could she do her own thing with peace of mind?
After practicing for more than 30 years, Lingjue has long understood the horror of inner demons. Inner demons will attract evil spirits from the spiritual realm to possess them. The worst result is to become a real demon like Duolong. If that happens,
to the point...
"We can't delay it any longer... Elena's loss is my responsibility, Lingjue. If you believe me, just leave. You go and fulfill your dream. I will take Elena out."
Watching Lester suddenly disappear from sight, Lingjue sighed softly, clasped his hands together and lowered his head.
"I believe in you, my friend, and may the spirit of Ionia bless your soul."
…
After taking a few steps, Lester noticed that the surrounding light had become distorted. However, upon closer inspection, it turned out to be normal.
Looking back, Lingjue, who should have been a few meters behind him, had disappeared.
There was no noise in the ears, and the entire forest seemed to be dead. Only the cold and gloomy trees and plants were swaying, consuming the observer's energy, giving people an eerie feeling.
Lester knew that he had completely entered the spiritual maze. Even if he retreated, he would not be able to return to the position of his spiritual sense. He would only appear in another place. If he ran blindly in a certain direction, he would never be able to return to his spiritual state for the rest of his life.
I want to leave this weird forest.
Fortunately, in addition to knowing part of Ionia's background story, Lester also obtained key information about the flesh-and-blood black mage Helena in the Black Rose Mage Academy in advance, so he was not completely clueless in the mental maze.
.
Instead of walking around casually, Lester sat cross-legged on the ground, stared at the human skull beside his knees, and began to sort out his thoughts.
"According to Helena, the spiritual maze is an outermost line of defense constructed by Vasta Yashayari with the cooperation of tree spirits and human arcane masters to protect the holy land [Omika Aran].
Within the maze, there is also the [Wangyou Garden] managed by the gardener’s grandmother.
After passing through the Garden of Worry, you have to go to a secret cave in the north to reach the final destination, Vastaya's sanctuary, the ancient forest [Omikayalan],
The mental maze will not only interfere with the flow of magic power and affect the construction of spells, but also increase the consumption of mental power. Even if you do nothing, you will become exhausted in the mental maze. After passing out on the ground, you will live or die.
It depends on whether any vastayas who happen to be passing by are willing to lend a helping hand. Only a few lucky ones can be sent out of the mental maze by the vastayas. Most of the unlucky ones will die of exhaustion trapped in the mental maze.
In the array, forever lost here,
Elena would not understand the dangers of the mental maze. How could she take the initiative to enter the mental maze after agreeing on a meeting place? Thinking about it this way, I am afraid that an unknown third party may have influenced Elena.
Either seduced or forced, she had to enter the mental maze to protect herself. From this point of view, the mental maze set up by Vastaya Shari was not just for screening high-quality lives, but also had some malicious intentions.
Guys like to use mental mazes to achieve their own unknown purposes... Considering that Vastaya Xari are old and immortal monsters, it is understandable that some lifeless perverts will appear.
Helena, who was lost in the mental maze, conquered a Vastaya male through pure and superb hand-to-hand combat skills and successfully passed through the mental maze. What method should I use? Is it possible that I need to find a person with authority?
