C481 The secret of the forest of despair

Forest of Despair.

"Ah …"

"No, no, ah …"

"Let me die."

"Ah …"

Various screams echoed in the forest from time to time. It was as if the place had become hell on earth. Just hearing these cries caused one to feel a chill in their heart.

Zhan Tianming and his group had already reached the edge of the Forest of Despair.

They frowned as they looked at the unknown dense forest.

"That scream seemed to be filled with despair." Fu Liye said in a serious tone.

"Hmph, this place is called Forest of Despair, if those who enter don't feel despair, then who will?" Yun Tianyi said in disdain.

"Brother Yun, stop messing around. If we want to leave this place, we must find the Transfer Array in the Forest of Despair. Tell us everything you know." Zhan Tianming looked at Yun Tianyi.

Yun Tianyi naturally knew that the Transfer Array was in the Forest of Despair as well.

After glancing at Zhan Tianming, he said, "There are hundreds of tree monsters guarding the inner circle within the Forest of Despair. Under normal circumstances, as long as you don't break into the inner circle and alarm that Blue Lake Beast, this Forest of Despair isn't considered desperate, at most, you can face a few fourth or fifth stage little Demonic Beast. But if you alarm the Blue Lake Beast, this place will truly be a set of Forest of Despair."

Hearing this, both Zhan Tianming and Zhan Tianming were stunned.

Finally, Zhan Tianming asked: "Brother Yun, what will happen if we alarm that Blue Lake Beast?"

"Startled? The entire Forest of Despair is a living hell. " Yun Tianyi said.

Zhan Tianming frowned.

Damn it, even if they didn't alarm him, they would at least be alarmed. This was going to be troublesome.

However …

Zhan Tianming was suspicious, and could not help but ask: "Oh right, Brother Yun, from what I know, the Blue Lake Beast is a rare and strange beast, it exists in the form of a lake, it will devour all non-plant life forms close to it, but it is itself unable to move, even if it possessed near eternal life, it would not be able to create any huge threat right?"

"That's right, normal Blue Lake Beast are indeed unable to move, however, the Blue Lake Beast in the Forest of Despair are different." Yun Tianyi said.

Suddenly, Yun Tianyi glared at Zhan Tianming.

"Zhan Family brat, don't tell me you were the one who alarmed that Blue Lake Beast?"

"Ugh …" This, how should I put it? " Zhan Tianming scratched his head.

"Damn it! Do you know that once that Blue Lake Beast is alarmed, the chances of us leaving this place is practically zero? " Yun Tianyi almost rushed out to fight with Zhan Tianming.

But in the end, he endured it.

"Stop bullshitting, tell me first, what's so special about that Blue Lake Beast?" Zhan Tianming said.

Yun Tianyi's face darkened.

After a long while, he finally said slowly, "That Blue Lake Beast was possessed by a fellow called Xue Zong from the Devil Clan. Back then, Sea Clan used more than half of its strength to trap the reborn Blue Lake Beast in this Forest of Despair, and requested that Spirit Clan send out a hundred and eight tree monsters to guard the inner circle, preventing any living beings from approaching Xue Zong."

"If... "If we get close, what will happen?" Zhan Tianming asked carefully.

"As long as they aren't too close to each other, nothing will usually happen to them. After all, after Xue Zong has been struck by the seal, he has already become very weak. But if there's a creature that's too close to him that's being devoured by Xue Zong, it will be in deep trouble. Yun Tianyi said in a serious tone.

Hearing that, Zhan Tianming's heart dropped.

It's over.

From the looks of it, Xue Zong had already broken through the seal.

And all of this, was because he had brought along his Seven Peaks Sect's people, killed more than a dozen tree monsters, and charged into the Blue Lake Beast's place.

In the end, the two disciples from the Seven Peaks Sect were devoured by the Blue Lake Beast and were able to use their blood to break open the seal.

All of this had been caused by him.

Kacha Kacha …

Zhan Tianming clenched his fist.

"Since I was the one who caused this mess, let me solve all the problems."

Men couldn't shirk their responsibilities.

This was Zhan Tianming's bottom line.

It was also a rule!

"No, it's not your responsibility." Fu Liye shook his head.

Zhan Tianming could not help but turn his head.

Fu Liye took a deep breath and said, "Long before you entered, us, the two of us and the other elders and disciples have already seen that strange lake in the forest. At that time, a disciple was already drawn into that strange lake.

"What?" Zhan Tianming was startled.

He never would have thought that before them, the Blue Lake Beast that had already been possessed by Xue Zong, would have already broken through the seal.

However, Xue Zong did not completely engulf all of them back then. Most probably, it was because he had yet to fully awaken.

And after once again devouring the blood of the two Seven Peaks Sect disciples, he finally began to gradually regain consciousness.

Fu Shiyao also revealed a look of sudden enlightenment, and said: "I remember now, back then, when Senior Brother Sect Leader and I were surrounded by those Devil Clan people, one of the demon dwellers said that it was impossible for any Human Cultivator to barge around in here.

"Maybe before you barged in, father, Xue Zong had already broken through the seal."

"Otherwise, those Demon Dwellers wouldn't have said something like that."

Following after Fu Shiyao said this, everyone's hearts were once again stunned.

Did he break open the seal earlier?

If that was really the case, then why didn't Xue Zong launch an attack earlier?

For a time, everyone was filled with doubts.

However, no matter what, everyone was already sure of one thing.

That was: This Forest of Despair, was already a genuine Forest of Despair.

After all, the Blue Lake Beast was a Grade Nine Demonic Beast!

"Maybe we still have a chance." Zhan Tianming suddenly said.

Involuntarily, everyone's gaze swept over him.

"Think about it, since Xue Zong had already broken through the seal and subdued those Devil Emperor s who were controlling the Penetrating Horn Fly, he must have eaten his fill of fresh blood long ago. And since he did not do anything big earlier, it must be because he could not do it for the time being, or perhaps, when he broke open the seal, he caused some sort of heavy injury."

"In that case, the current Xue Zong probably hasn't recovered the strength he had at his peak."

Zhan Tianming's thoughts were racing.

He turned to look at Fu Liye and Shi Lianxi, and asked: "Uncle, Aunt, do you know where the Transfer Array is?"

"Got it." Fu Liye and his wife nodded.

"Alright, then after we entered the Forest of Despair, we headed straight for the Transfer Array and teleported away. That's the only way to get out of this place alive. " Zhan Tianming said solemnly.

The others also nodded slightly.

"Let's go."
