Douluo's Long Night

Chapter 160 Corpse and Dark Forest

The clouds and smoke all over the sky cleared away, and the blazing whiteness was no longer there. The dim dark clouds covered the blasted gap like a flood.

Xie Yue looked up and said, "It looks like he's dead or has run away, no matter which one it is, we have to leave quickly, it's too bright, it's like telling others we're here."

"Then let's go!" Xu Junfang also felt that it was inappropriate to stay in this wasteland.

Without hesitation, the seven took three pioneers who no longer had to wear the soul chain and rushed away.

Yes, the three captives who were captured before gained enough trust after working with the seven members of the golden generation team for five days, and the three pioneers had no better choice than to act with the seven members.

Although the current three pioneers are still rushing to be pioneers, they no longer need to wear soul chains. The three are very happy, thinking that they have finally been accepted.

As everyone knows, even though the shackles have been released, Xu Junfang still can't feel at ease with these three people, and has laid hands on them. If they rebel, they will be sent away directly.

The ten people didn't dare to stay, they ran wildly all the way, rushing towards the tower that seemed to have never changed the distance.

The terrain at this time was fairly flat, and everyone was running on the top of the mountain, and beside them was a canyon with deep ravines, with layers of earth, rocks and slopes.

There was a piece of black grass under everyone's feet, and there were only a few types of grass that could grow in this dark canyon, and the dead soul grass that filled the mountains and plains almost became a symbol of the plants in the canyon.

The ten people stopped and walked, or took a short rest, or encountered a spirit beast on the road, time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the afternoon of the fifth day.

"!"

The three people who were exploring the way in front suddenly stopped and took a few steps back, with disgusted and solemn expressions on their faces.

Because of the distance, Xu Junfang couldn't see their expressions, only saw the three retreating, and asked:
"What's wrong? What did you see?"

"The corpse, the corpse of the soul master!" Hua Dong said with an ugly expression.

"The corpse of the soul master!?" The seven of them looked at each other, and they all saw a trace of solemnity in the eyes of their companions.

It's not that they didn't meet other soul masters in the past five days, but they were very few, only four or five.

If more than 100 soul masters were thrown into such a vast and dangerous Grand Canyon, the chances of encountering each other would not be too great. If the soul masters did not follow behind on purpose, they should be scattered all over the canyon at this time throughout.

After all, the path chosen by each group of soul masters is different, and there will be casualties and separation during this period.

What really made them feel dignified was the word "corpse".

Although the probability of encountering fellow soul masters in the canyon is small, it is not uncommon, but the corpse of a soul master is a bit scary.

The soul masters who can participate in this golden trial are not bad at all, they are all elites who have been tested at various levels. Except for the seven members of the golden generation team, the rest of the soul masters are not much different even if there is a gap.

The discovery of the soul master's corpse here means that there may be a danger of their death nearby, and they need to be more careful than before.

"Tsk tsk, it's really dead. I thought there would be rescue in the dark. This time it seems to be for real." On the way to the "dead body", Yan had already seen a bloody mess in the distance, although he didn't quite see it. It's true, but it doesn't stop him from complaining.

"Yeah, the road ahead will only become more dangerous." Xie Yue said in a deep voice.

"You said, someone came here before us? It's impossible that they are stronger than us?" Feng Duya said, his concern was a bit different.

Xu Yu has been a little frightened since he heard about the corpse of a soul master. At this time, in order to relieve his inner fear, he talked to Feng Duya: "There is no such thing as stronger than us. It is estimated that the road we are going to change the wave. Dead, someone should have taken a small path, a shortcut, faster than us...

"I don't know whether to say they are lucky or not." Xu Junfang interjected, and the seven people had come to the dead body that the three people in Huadong saw.

There was indeed a corpse of a soul master on the ground. The body of the soul master was cut into countless corpses by something unknown.

The land in the canyon was already dark and desolate, but a large piece of soil around the dead body was even darker in color. Presumably, a lot of blood seeped into the ground, and some blood coagulated on the ground.

Seeing this kind of scene in vain, the faces of ten people were not good, especially the two girls Liu Weina and Hu Liena. for repulsion.

"It's so miserable~" Xu Yu seemed to substitute himself into the dead soul master, imagining and experiencing the fear of the soul master during his lifetime.

"I didn't expect him to have corpse spots at such a young age..." Xu Junfang looked at the severed hand covered in bruises and said with emotion.

Hu Liena gave Xu Junfang a strange sideways glance.

"Looking at the corpse spot and corpse, it should have been dead for more than two hours."

"This kind of wound...is cut by an extremely thin thread."

Xie Yue also spoke. As an expert in various cutting methods, he looked at the smooth wound for a while and expressed his inference.

"Well, I also think so. His expression is not painful. It should be that countless extremely thin silk threads cut him into pieces in an instant." Xu Junfang began to look at the corpse carefully. The head of the corpse was still relatively intact, but There was a bowl-sized scar on his neck.

"It's the soul beast, I don't remember anyone in the sixth grade who has the ability to play with silk thread..."

The scene fell into an eerie calm for a while, and everyone was looking at the wound of the corpse from various angles and thinking.

"I know him."

One of the three "pioneers" broke the silence, a soul master named Liao Hai.

"Oh?"

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Liao Hai.

"Who is he? What is his soul power? What is a martial soul?"

Xu Junfang was eloquent.

Liao Hai swallowed, he is not used to being the focus of sight: "

The person who died was called Tian Shu, an auxiliary soul master. I don't know how much soul power he has, but he must have reached the level of a soul master. "

"His martial spirit seems to be... Tianyan, a kind of spiritual martial spirit."

"Sky Eye..." Xu Junfang fell into deep thought.

"They may have encountered a ten thousand year soul beast." Xie Yue said, "A martial soul like him must be the object of the team's protection, but he died first."

"There is no trace of other soul master's death here, not even a trace of dragging the corpse, which means that either he got lost with the team, or the soul beast thought that the sky-eyed soul master could see its existence, so he was killed first before going Hunting others." Xie Yue began to analyze.

"If it is the second possibility, there are no other corpses of soul masters around and no traces of battle, which means that the soul beast bypassed so many soul masters and killed him silently. This method must have at least ten thousand years of cultivation. for it to be done.”

"Hiss~" Xu Yu gasped, his body trembled uncontrollably, he was a little flustered.

"Sounds a little dangerous..." Hu Liena whispered.

"I'm afraid it is indeed a big guy. Look ahead." Xu Junfang suddenly broke the oppressive atmosphere of the crowd.

"What is it..." Before Feng Duya finished asking the question, the voice of the rescuer gradually became weaker.

In front of everyone, a place slightly higher than the horizon is pitch-black. In the dim environment of the canyon, it takes careful observation to find the rows of branches protruding from the darkness.

There is a large dense forest in front of it. The forest grows on the terrain of the canyon. All the way up the slope, the dense black seems to be connected to the sky, which looks quite steep.

"The woods!" Hu Liena frowned. The woods are the most suitable environment for soul beasts to hide, and it is very inconvenient for them to move. The black forest like the ocean in front of them shows that this is the only way they must pass to reach the tower.

There are bound to be bumps ahead.

"The soul beast that attacked and killed this person should be hiding in the forest, let's go in another direction, not this way." Xie Yue made a prompt decision.

"Everyone be careful."

"Then we..." the three pioneers asked, hesitation and fear evident on their faces.

They were obviously afraid of being ordered to go to the forest to find their way.

Although the trio has not been eliminated in the past five days, it does not mean that they are not injured.

If you are injured and go to explore the way in this extremely dangerous forest, you may die without knowing why before you resist.

"The forest is too dark and chaotic, so you don't have to go ahead for the time being, just follow the team, but if we fall behind, we won't look for you." Xu Junfang said, they took a detour and prepared to enter the forest from another direction.

"Okay, okay." The three thanked them repeatedly as if they had been pardoned.

The darkness covered by the forest seemed close, but in fact they still needed to walk a certain distance. When they got close to the forest, the gloomy sky was already getting darker.

This dark forest does not have an official road for passage like the Star Dou Great Forest, and every gap between trees here can be used as the entrance of the forest.

Xu Junfang and the others stopped in front of the tall black trees, looking at the dark paths between the trees, as if they were looking at the tunnels leading to hell.
