Tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded the Death Forest, while Chen Tian and four others flew through the air and entered the Death Forest through the human wall formed by the soldiers.
Two spiritual kings, one spiritual general and a fifth-grade pharmacist, plus tens of thousands of soldiers, such a powerful lineup naturally attracted the attention of many local forces.
In fact, the purpose of Okemo's big move is to attract a lot of attention and to establish his authority.
You must know that the Qingyang Empire does not only have the Shadow Killing Sect, there are many sporadic forces scattered throughout the Qingyang Empire, and they are also a powerful force when organized.
Although the Oak family became the rulers of the Qingyang Empire, they failed to make any achievements in all aspects, so they wanted to use this operation to establish their prestige.
As long as the operation is successful, it will not only be able to remove the time bomb of the Death Forest, but also be able to deter those sporadic forces. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Chen Tian. He just wants to use the help of Okemo and the others to enter the Forest of Death, obtain the Soul Dream Luolian, and help Wuming wake up quickly.
"In the forest of death, I have only walked on the periphery in the past, not in the center. Therefore, I still don't know what the monster inside looks like, so I recommend that everyone walk."
After entering the scope of the Death Forest, Okemo looked around with a solemn expression, and then said these words of advice.
Hearing this, Chen Tian and others nodded, and then they fell from the void together, got into the dense jungle, stepped on the rotten and wet fallen leaves, and a smelly atmosphere assaulted their nostrils.
"The terrain in the Forest of Death is complicated. I once entered here and I knew the direction well, but I still got lost. Now if I choose to walk, I have to follow the map on Chen Tian's parchment scroll."
After landing, Okemo turned to look at Chen Tian, who was looking around with vigilant eyes, and said.
"kindness."
Nodding, Chen Tian showed no hesitation and quickly found the storage bag. After unzipping the rope, he found the collected parchment rolls inside.
Okemo and the others knew that the parchment was wrapped around Chen Tian, so if they wanted to snatch it away, they wouldn't have to worry too much, and based on their status, Chen Tian didn't need to worry too much.
After finding the parchment scroll, Chen Tian looked at the surrounding environment, then compared it with the route carved on the parchment scroll, and took the lead to step forward, stepping on the wet ground.
Okemo and others followed Chen Tian and moved forward slowly. At the same time, their eyes were alert and they looked around, using energy to prevent changes.
The monsters in the Death Forest were all attracted by the snake's saliva and have all left. At this time, the place is silent, except for the occasional rustling of the branches and leaves of the trees, which can be heard as the wind blows.
Along the way, Chen Tian and others could see the corpses of many monsters and humans on the ground, some of which were stained with flesh and blood, and the blood gave off a putrid smell.
For people like Chen Tian and others who have seen "big scenes", such a scene is not surprising at all, so they walked forward easily on the ground.
"The human heart is not as good as a snake swallowing an elephant. For thousands of years, countless cultivators have come here to hunt for treasures, but in the end they all hated it."
During the march, Okemo looked at the human corpses and sighed like this.
"The journey of a cultivator is inherently full of hardships and dangers, and one may die at any time. Even we are no exception, let alone these cultivators with low cultivation levels."
After hearing Okemo's emotion, Gu Rongshi also nodded.
"In this world, the strong are respected. If they can find the treasure, they can break into the top of the pyramid in the shortest possible time and become a powerful person who scares everyone. For the sake of power, they knew it was dangerous, but they still broke in. In fact,
This is understandable." Okemo smiled slightly and said.
"Well. Speaking of treasure hunting, I remembered something. Chen Yu, who was killed by a mysterious strong man more than thirty years ago, and the strong players who were killed by mysterious strong men in the past, have one characteristic."
When Gu Rong was marching, after hearing Okemo's words, he frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Chen Tiandang pricked up his ears. Chen Yu was the former head of the Chen clan, so Chen Tian was very interested in his affairs.
"Could it be that Master Gu and I want to get together?" Okemo asked as he turned to look at Gu Rong.
They were all high-ranking people and knew a lot about the secrets on the continent, so Okemo immediately thought of that matter.
"Oh? Does the head of the Oak family also think that Chen Yu and those strong men who were killed were related to that thing?" Gu Rongshi said with surprise on his face.
"Not far from the Fengming Empire, a strange phenomenon occurred in the world. It was rumored that Chen Yu got a mysterious elixir there. After taking it, his cultivation speed became even more terrifying. And the reason why he was able to compete with the elementary level with his spirit general strength
The battle between the Spiritual Kings seems to be related to that elixir."
"Moreover, it seems that those influential figures who were killed had obtained the elixir that could increase one's cultivation speed and strength, but they were all killed when they broke through the Spirit General realm and broke into the Spirit King realm.
"
When it comes to those secret things, Okemo can't calm down for a long time. This matter is still a mystery to this day. No one knows the truth, and everyone can only make bold guesses.
"Seniors, do you know what kind of elixir it is and what the strength of that mysterious strong man is?" After hearing the conversation between Okemo and the others, Chen Tian couldn't help but be curious and asked.
"These are just mysteries in the Star Continent. There is no record of that magical medicine. Even the powerful people who have seen it don't want to mention it too much. They just say that it looks like a baby.
As for the mysterious powerhouse, no one knows exactly what level of cultivation he has reached, but judging from his ability to destroy the Spirit King Realm with one move, it is very likely that he is the legendary Spirit King Realm powerhouse.
"
Gu Rong didn't hide anything at all and told everything he knew. After all, these so-called secrets are not secrets in the world of the strong, it's just that no one wants to talk about it.
Although Gu Rongshi spoke very calmly, and Chen Tian just nodded lightly on the surface, with no trace of emotion on his expression, there was a shocking wave in his heart.
"It looks like a baby. Could it be that the so-called elixir is an evil spirit?"
Suddenly, Chen Tian remembered what Wuming had said to him when he was at Panlong Mountain, which was used to introduce evil spirits. This made Chen Tian more and more sure of his conjecture.
"Who is he? Why did he want to kill the strong man who had taken the evil spirit? What is his purpose?" All kinds of thoughts and puzzles were plaguing Chen Tian.
He desperately wanted to know the answer, but it was obviously impossible at this time. He could only wait until Wuming woke up and asked Wuming to see if he knew the answer.
After suppressing all the thoughts in his heart, Chen Tian did not continue to question Okemo and the others, but quietly led the way without any emotion on his face.
Okemo and the others seemed to be a little taboo about those secrets. After another casual conversation, they stopped talking.
The group of four people moved forward quietly and very quickly. In just a moment, they had gone 20 kilometers deep, and the journey was uneventful.
"Roar."
But at this moment, an earth-shaking and heart-stopping roar of a monster spread from the depths of the Death Forest to all directions. An extremely terrifying aura filled the air, making people feel as if their souls were trembling.
"It's the breath coming from that monster. Judging from this, it should be a ninth-level monster."
After feeling the palpitating aura, everyone stopped and looked towards the center of the Death Forest with solemn eyes.
"This aura makes me feel a great pressure. I must be extremely careful later." A sharp look flashed across his eyes, and Okemo raised his fists into empty fists and said.
Hearing this, everyone nodded, and then continued to move toward the center.
With two Spirit King Realm powerhouses present, Chen Tian was not worried about his life being in danger. What he was worried about at this time was whether he would be able to successfully harvest the Soul Dream Luo Lian.
"Buzz."
Suddenly, just as Chen Tian glanced at his eyebrows and thought deeply, the nameless sword tied behind his back trembled slightly, as if receiving some kind of reaction.
At the same time, there was a sudden inexplicable sound between heaven and earth, which constantly impacted Chen Tian's mind. Chen Tian, who was walking, immediately stopped.
The inexplicable summons that appeared some time ago appeared again, and this time it was stronger, which shocked Chen Tian.
"Chen Tian, are you okay?"
But it was a pity that when Chen Tian was about to sense the source of the inexplicable summons, Okemo's doubtful voice rang in his ears.
In an instant, the inexplicable summons completely disappeared, and the nameless sword that was about to unsheath itself also fell silent in an instant.
"fine."
Chen Tian was very disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it. He smiled at Okemo and the others, then looked at the map in his hand, and then returned his gaze to the road.
"It's strange. The summons just now looked very much like it was coming from Jian Po. Could it be that Jian Po is in the Forest of Death?"
While moving forward, Chen Tian slowly raised his head and looked forward, his eyes full of confusion and curiosity.
"It can't be wrong. When we entered the forest of death, the call was extremely strong, and I had an intuition that it should be in the center of the forest of death." Chen Tian thought to himself, and his eyes looking forward became firm.
"However, it's strange. According to what the teacher said, each sword soul has special energy. When the ice soul appeared, it turned the entire Panlong Mountain into a world of ice and snow, but there was nothing strange in the Death Forest. This
What explanation should be given?"
Recalling the situation at Panlong Mountain, Chen Tian's face became even more confused and puzzled.
"Forget it, we will know if there is a sword soul when we enter the center of the Death Forest. If you think too much now, you are just asking for trouble."
Shaking his head, Chen Tian drove away the distracting thoughts, then held the parchment and focused on leading the way, but he still had some expectations in his heart.
