116: Chapter 116
"Then we shall listen to the Saintess."
Under the leadership of Ao Wuming, the Dragon Clan collectively flew above the jungle.
Suddenly, the jungle was filled with a large amount of pink mist, and immediately after, countless vines shot into the air, dragging the Demon Race and the Dragon Clan down.
The Ghost Clan's movement techniques were quite strange, their bodies ethereal, and it seemed that physical attacks like vines had little effect on them, but the pink mist caused them even greater damage.
A large number of the Ghost Clan fell from the sky, instantly becoming nutrients for the flower demons and tree demons.
"Damn it, a mere tree demon dares to show off in front of me."
Watching his subordinates fall one after another, Gui Jianchou was furious and summoned dozens of Clones to attack the tree demons.
Thump-thump!
A continuous heartbeat sound came, its frequency and volume constantly increasing; Xiao Bai could clearly feel it even from the perimeter.
Each vibration released a huge energy wave, and then countless plant demons in the woods cast spells together, covering the entire forest with a protective barrier.
Neither Gui Jianchou nor Ji An could break the defensive barrier even when casting spells simultaneously.
"Gravity Pressure!"
More than a dozen tree demons with over ten thousand years of Cultivation exerted their power together, forcing Gui Jianchou and all the other experts hovering in the air to land on the ground.
Xiao Bai grabbed Feng Yun's hand and hurriedly retreated.
Slap!
A burning pain came from his palm; the Queen's anger glared fiercely at him.
"What are you doing?"
"It's too dangerous here. Let's hide first. Since even such strong people were dragged into the small forest, a lot of things are bound to happen next."
Feng Yun decisively went to Tian Kui's side, not daring to stay too close to Xiao Bai, as she was always being taken advantage of by him when caught off guard.
"Mind your own business. My Cultivation is much higher than yours; it's not your turn to protect me."
The Queen simply wouldn't buy it and was not easy to fool at all. To ease the awkwardness, Xiao Bai shifted his gaze to a fox demon beside Tian Kui.
"Little sister, seeing you dressed so thinly, are you cold? Big brother can lend you his clothes to wear."
The originally beautiful fox demon suddenly bared sharp fangs and clawed at Xiao Bai.
Tian Kui shouted: "Xiao Ling, do not be rude, come over to my side."
"Put away that mindset of hitting on girls and think more about how to get through this jungle."
"This is the only way to Tianyuan. These plant demons have absorbed Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and have long since become spirits; flying over from above is definitely not an option."
"We can only find a way to break through from the ground."
Then Tian Kui flew into the air, pointing to the source of the heartbeat in the middle of the forest.
"Whatever you do, don't wake up that Banyan Tree King in the center, which has over one hundred thousand years of Cultivation."
Xiao Bai was like an elementary school student listening to an encyclopedia, nodding frequently like a chick pecking at rice; did every fox demon know so much?
Previously, Tu Shan You You was always teaching him some knowledge.
Now it was Tian Kui's turn; her strength was unfathomable and very mysterious, and she was not only knowledgeable but also steady in her actions.
It could be said that if it weren't for her leadership, the nine fragments would definitely not have been collected so quickly, and who knows when the search for the Demon Emperor's Tomb would have been able to proceed.
"Xiao Bai, you go in and take a look first. Remember, do not fly in the air; the target is too big, and you won't be able to withstand the skills used by those tree demons in their group attacks."
Tian Kui then pointed out a slightly more reliable route.
"You weave through to the right; you must not disturb the Banyan Tree King, otherwise the entire forest will form a huge barrier, and you will be trapped inside and unable to get out."
Xiao Bai was a little panicked now, looking pitifully at Feng Yun, hoping she would come along.
Even experts like Gui Jianchou were dragged in; Xiao Bai wouldn't be blindly confident. In such a dangerous place, one must decisively admit defeat.
"Tian Kui, it's too dangerous inside the forest. I can hear the wailing and howling of ghosts from here."
"Your Cultivation is all higher than mine; I strongly suggest the Queen go with me so we can look out for each other."
"If that doesn't work, sending two little fox fairy ladies to sneak into the small forest with me is also fine."
Tian Kui shook her head: "Such a difficult task can only be left for you to complete alone. If a female demon enters, it will stimulate the fighting desire of those tree spirits."
"Waiting for your good news. As long as you can safely pass through the entire forest, the path under your feet will be absolutely safe."
"Come on, we all believe in you."
Feng Yun walked to Xiao Bai's ear and whispered.
"Come on, you are the best. When you return safely, I can agree to any of your requests."
"Really? Don't fool me. The previous cave-drilling matter doesn't count; I want to conquer the Queen in my own way."
Feng Yun pushed Xiao Bai forward, clenching her right fist, her voice sounding cutesy like a voice actress.
"Come on, come on, come on!"
Hearing this voice, the hormones in Xiao Bai's body instantly exploded; it was the first time the aloof Queen had acted like this.
Such a cutesy voice, no matter how you listen to it, has a bit of Chi-ling Lin's flavor.
After Xiao Bai entered the forest, Tian Kui hurriedly praised Feng Yun.
"Good acting, you finally tricked that lecherous snake inside."
"Set up the tent, start the stove, and eat barbecue."
They used this way to see Xiao Bai off into the forest for his adventure, silently praying in their hearts that he would have continuous good luck.
Xiao Bai looked back and was dumbfounded; he couldn't get out now, and in an instant, he was shrouded in pink mist.
"Are you really that happy? You're even celebrating with barbecue. If I gave you a dozen Snowy beers, would you start floating?"
"Forget it, you won't be arrogant for much longer."
"When I successfully pass through the jungle, little Yuner, just wait and see how I deal with you. Last time I drove the big vehicle to save you, and I ended up getting myself into a bizarre situation."
Apart from having a lot of pink mist, this forest didn't have anything special.
Xiao Bai felt that since he possessed the transformation technique, he could easily cope. Once he safely passed through this forest, the Queen would be in for it.
Swish!
With every step he took, he could hear the crisp sound of leaves.
Xiao Bai turned into an ant, first lying on a leaf to carefully observe the situation around him.
"I'm so small now, I shouldn't be discovered, right? Keeping this form to scout the path, it's not like I don't have feet."
At this time, Tian Kui and Feng Yun, along with a dozen fox demons beside them, were eating roasted lamb skewers together.
Tian Kui threw out a special mirror, live-streaming Xiao Bai's forest adventure.
Chapter 154 Bewildering Forest
"Yuner, take off your mask. How can you eat like that?"
"We are all sisters here, you don't need to be so reserved."
During this period, they had been getting along very well, in order to balance Feng Yun's mood.
Tian Kui took the lead in taking off her black hood and untying her black veil, revealing a hideous face to Feng Yun, completely looking like an internet celebrity face from a failed plastic surgery.
Her nose was like Pinocchio's, her chin like an awl, her eyes swollen like bells, and her cheeks were extremely asymmetrical, as if run over ruthlessly by a No. 2 bus parked on the eighth floor.
Only the pair of animal ears symbolizing a fox demon remained.
"Look, actually, this is my real appearance. Xiao Bai still thinks I'm a stunningly beautiful fox demon."
"How can there be so many beautiful female demons in the world? There are bound to be some who fail at Taking Human Form."
Tian Kui spoke earnestly again, which finally allowed Feng Yun to let go of her guard and slowly take off the terrifying golden mask.
At this moment, she had absolutely none of the Queen's confident radiance; her eyes revealed a sense of inferiority, a completely different personality from before.
"Don't be reserved. Now that we are both so ugly, let's eat to our hearts' content."
"You can recover once the curse is lifted, but I was born like this and simply cannot change it."
The two of them were like a pair of good girlfriends, drinking a little wine, opening their hearts to chat and talk about everything.
Feng Yun admired Tian Kui's plan, organizing the plan to open the Demon Emperor's Tomb, making all the clans of Demons and Monsters flock to it, rushing forward blindly.
And she herself hid in the back, unhurried. This Bewildering Forest in front of them would cause the Demon, Ghost, and Dragon Clans to suffer even heavier losses.
Taking this opportunity to weaken their strength, it seemed that there was a greater secret hidden inside the Demon Emperor's Tomb; Tian Kui had some reservations and didn't say everything completely.
Xiao Bai turned into an ant and moved on the leaves at top speed; he was as tiny as a speck of dust.
"Tch, so simple! There's no difficulty at all; Tian Kui made it sound so mysterious."
"I'm such a small ant, I don't believe those tree demons and flower demons can discover me."
The rustling sound coming from behind made Xiao Bai immediately alert; a group of female ants pounced on him.
"No way, am I this charming even when I turn into an ant?"
"Wait, one by one. I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."
Relaxing his vigilance a little, the female ants turned into the tentacles of a man-eating flower and wrapped around Xiao Bai.
He decisively took out the Crimson Flame Demon Blade, cut them off, and turned into a wisp of smoke to float away.
"Damn it, I almost fell for it. They won't even let me go when I turn into an ant."
Not far to the left rear of Xiao Bai's location, Gui Jianchou was constantly hacking at the tree demons with sharp black claws, tearing dozens of tree demons around him to shreds.
The fragments on the ground reassembled, turning into even stronger tree demons.
Ji An was being frantically chased by a dozen vines; every time he cut one off, it would grow wildly, its power increasing much more than before.
"Old Gui, we can't use this method. It has no effect on the tree demons and will only make their strength skyrocket."
Ao Wuming turned back into a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, spewing flames to scorch the vines wrapped around him, but they couldn't be burned off at all.
"Damn it, what kind of monsters are these tree demons exactly?"
