I’m Not a Badass

As soon as Xue Yaxian said this, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

The road behind is also full of fruit trees?

How is this possible? There was nothing unusual when we came here just now. When did it happen...

Are these fruit trees alive and conscious? They deliberately waited for us to enter the range and blocked our way back?

...

Everyone was talking about it for a while, and everyone had a hint of panic on their faces. After all, the back road was surrounded by fruit trees, which meant that whether they were going forward or retreating, they had to step into the fruit forest.

Di Mingyi snorted coldly, like a thunderous explosion, interrupting everyone's discussion. She said coldly: No matter how those fruit trees moved behind to block the road, the current situation is that we must enter the scope of this fruit forest, right?

Yao Meizhen tightened her sword and said in a deep voice: It seems that we have to go in. Everyone, don't take chances anymore. From the moment you enter this weird world, you must be mentally prepared to face danger at all times. Taking chances will kill you.

With a few people as examples, everyone quickly readjusted their mentality and moved forward cautiously, stepping into the orchard.

rustle.

Everyone approached the fruit trees one by one, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath. Just when they were ready that these fruit trees would suddenly burst out and hurt people... nothing happened.

There was silence all around.

Everyone was a little surprised and uncertain, and tentatively walked forward for a certain distance. The fruit tree was motionless, as if it was really just an ordinary fruit tree, but no one dared to approach and pick the fruits from the tree to eat.

Speed ​​up, let's rush over in one breath! Xue Yaxian lowered her voice, and everyone immediately quickened their pace and rushed forward. Mu Lengyue grabbed one of Bai Mufan's hands and almost pulled him to run. Bai Mufan took a step forward He could barely keep up with his legs. His physical fitness had gradually surpassed that of ordinary people after he entered the path of cultivation. However, he had not yet broken through the limits of the human body. A qualitative change would only occur after he officially broke through to the realm of spiritual refining.

Just when everyone was rushing halfway, one person suddenly slowed down, and the companion next to him couldn't help but urge: Hurry up, or you will be left behind by the team!

However, the man remained unmoved. He just stared blankly at the nearest fruit tree with a look of obsession on his face and murmured: You go first, don't worry about me, I want to stay here... …I want to taste these fruits before I leave.”

Do you know what you are talking about? You don't want to live anymore?! Her companion was anxious and wanted to pull her away by force, but no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't pull her away. The man stood there as if his feet were rooted. , and walked towards the fruit tree step by step, with a happy smile on his face, as if he had seen something extremely beautiful.

This person's stop seemed to cause a chain reaction, and a second, third, and more people gradually appeared in the team. More and more people stopped, with a look of obsession on their faces, and walked to both sides in a daze. The most bizarre thing about the fruit tree is that the people next to it can’t even pull it!

Seeing this scene, everyone still didn't understand what happened. Xue Yaxian even woke up. She immediately held up the compass and released a stream of starlight hanging down, like a canopy covering everyone's heads. Many people felt a little dizzy. My brain became much clearer, and I couldn't help being frightened. I quickly stood within the starlight of the compass and didn't dare to walk around.

Mu Lengyue had been staring closely at Bai Mufan and found that his expression was normal. She couldn't help but feel relieved. It was a little late when she noticed something was wrong. At that time, she saw someone actively walking towards the fruit tree. She suddenly felt worried about Bai Mufan. He would be tricked, but he didn't expect to be affected at all.

Bai Mufan actually stayed awake throughout the whole process. There was a mysterious spiritual mark sitting in the space between his eyebrows. Naturally, this little trick couldn't trouble him.

But today he discovered that the mental imprint was too strong, which didn't seem to be entirely a good thing. Just now, he didn't even notice that these fruit trees were using spiritual invasion to control others. It was like being kicked by an ant. He didn't feel it at all. The force was too strong. It's gentle. If you had noticed it earlier, you might have been able to remind everyone that something was wrong.

Xue Yaxian said with a calm face: These fruit trees are good at spiritual charm. They seem to be silent all the time. In fact, they have been tricked the moment we stepped into this fruit forest! I can't save those who have been completely charmed. We can only pull them back, even if their legs are cut off, they have to be taken away! As long as they can escape from here, one pair of legs can be regenerated by the master of the wood magic power of the sect, but if the life is gone, it will really be gone. Got it!

Hearing this, the others gritted their teeth and stepped forward to pull those people away. When they found that they still couldn't be pulled, they decided to cut off their legs. However, after doing so, everyone suddenly discovered a shocking truth - these The inside of a person's legs is actually completely penetrated by thick tree roots!

These tree roots emerged from the ground silently, pierced directly into their legs from the soles of their feet, and then spread all the way up into their bodies, closely connected with their bones, flesh, and even internal organs!

This can also explain why they couldn't pull these people no matter how hard they pulled them. Their bodies had already been entangled and controlled by these tree roots, tightly connected to the earth, and the tree roots came from the surrounding fruit trees. It's spreading, it's weird to be able to pull it!

Someone tried to pull out a weapon and chop off the tree roots connected to the legs. The sharp blade struck the tree roots, making a sound like the collision of metal and sparks. However, the tree roots were unscathed, but they were There were small gaps in the weapon in his hand, and he couldn't help but look horrified.

Many people couldn't help but look at Liao Chen, the strongest person in the team, for help. Liao Chen had been observing carefully from the beginning, but in the end he shook his head and said, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do. I can feel that the breath of these donors has been completely connected with those fruit trees, so I took them away by force at this time, Instead, they will simply die.”

The faces of Xue Yaxian and others changed, but they finally made up their minds and gritted their teeth and said: Let's go, the power of the compass can't support it for long, take this opportunity to leave this fruit forest quickly!

Everyone could only give up rescuing these people and continue running forward. It didn't take long before they stepped out of the fruit forest.

Xue Yaxian tentatively put away the compass. Sure enough, there was no longer any external spiritual power trying to control them. She couldn't help but feel relieved. It should be safe here.
