Chapter 257
Chapter 257 – Chapter 255-Crisis _1
What he was looking at while lying down was probably the shade of a tree that covered the sky!
Just by imagining it, he felt that it would be a beautiful and spectacular scene.
It was a pity that it was an evil spirit that was born from the corpse of this divine giant tree, and it was using the flesh and blood of other creatures to nourish itself.
It was no wonder that he was restrained by his [ sacrifice ]!
Li Rui couldn’t help but sigh when he thought of the two chaos essences he had obtained after devouring the ancient tree’s remnant soul.
This should be the last trace of divinity the ancient tree had left in the world …
He had personally erased the last trace of an ancient mythical creature.
From then on, no one would ever know that in ancient Atlantis, there was a divine giant tree that protected the local people.
Even mythical creatures would be forgotten after they died. How many people would remember me after I died?
At this moment, Li Rui kind of understood why the father and son would say something like ” a husband can’t eat five cauldrons of food when he’s alive, but he will eat five cauldrons of food when he dies “.
If my name can’t be passed down for a hundred generations, then let me be infamous for ten thousand years!
As long as the people of the future can remember my name, then I have not come to this world in vain!
Li Rui looked at the sky that was gradually darkening and his mind was filled with all kinds of irrelevant things.
His thoughts were jumping and he was thinking about it without any logic. When Li Rui’s mind returned, he found that the [ eternal indestructible tribulation ] and the [ chaotic origin tribulation ] were both a little loose.
He felt that he had gained some insight, but after thinking about it carefully, it was all nonsense. He only felt that his heart had become more open-minded, and many of his previous worries seemed to be nothing more than his own worries.
Li Rui grinned, got up, and shouted at his teammates who were cooking.
“Are you done? make me a bowl first, I’m starving!”
“I’m here, brother ~”
Huang juncai rushed over with a bowl of meat paste.
……
“Jeff, what do you think the fire that lit up the entire sky the night before was?”
it’s a forest fire. The black smoke can be seen hundreds of kilometers away during the day.
I know it’s a forest fire. I’m asking about the cause of the fire!
“How should I know? However, there’s a lot of plant sap in the secret realm, and it can’t be easily ignited. It’s probably the effect of some sealed artifact.”
“Hey, what’s the point of guessing now? We can reach that place tonight. We’ll know when we see it!”
A tall and well-built black man came over and patted the two of them.
“Boss, what do you think that is?”
The white man named Jeff asked curiously, attracting the attention of the whole team.
The black man revealed a mouthful of white teeth and was about to blow when his eyelids suddenly twitched. He sniffed and raised his fist.
“There’s the smell of blood!”
Crack~
The sound of the safeties of the guns being released rang out in unison. Everyone was on high alert and got into a battle formation.
“Where are you from?”
“It’s in the direction we’re heading.”
The black man made a battle gesture and directed the team to move forward carefully.
The further they walked, the more obvious the smell of blood in the air became. Even the ordinary members could sense the smell, and their nerves became more tense.
But soon, the smell of blood began to mix with a strong rotting smell, and everyone could not help but frown.
There was a faint buzzing sound in their ears, and after turning a corner, a hellish and terrifying scene came into their eyes.
“Blargh~”
A few newbies could not stand the double impact of sight and smell, so they quickly cleared the food in their stomachs.
The sour smell of the digestive fluid filled the air, and vomiting spread like a plague. Even the old team members began to feel their throats move.
Looking at the black, rotten land, the black man picked up a stone and threw it hard.
BOOM!
An overwhelming “black cloud” soared into the sky. It was a thumb-sized green-eyed fly!
these aren’t human corpses. They should be some kind of secret realm’s social creatures that were slaughtered here!
The area within a few hundred meters was covered in corpses. Under the temperature of the secret realm, the speed at which these corpses rotted was beyond imagination.
It was like a man-made swamp of rotten black flesh!
“It looks like a bird.”
Holding back his disgust, one of the team members used a tree branch to dig out some bone gu. He could barely make out the shape of a bird.
“Could it be the strange bird we encountered a few days ago?”
One of the team members cried out in shock, and the entire team was shaken.
“How is that possible?”
we’ve lost a few brothers at the edge of the blacktide. Those strange birds are not something humans can fight against!
that’s right. If not for boss’s sealed artifact, none of us would have been able to escape.
Everyone looked at the swamp of flesh and blood in fear. They couldn’t believe that it was made up of the bodies of their nightmare Lord!
“There’s no need to argue. This is indeed the flock of strange birds. Look at their claws and beaks!”
The black man found a few joints with an ugly expression. Their obvious physiological structure was clear at a glance.
and look, these strange birds were all killed by a sharp blade when they were alive. The broken bones are very smooth, and there are no signs of arrowheads or bullet shells around them. It was probably killed by a few experts in close combat.
After a pause, the black man added.
“You guys know how thick the skin of those strange birds is.”
The air suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at the black land in silence, and a chill slowly rose in their backs.
How many strange bird corpses would it take to cover such a large area?
Which force had killed them?
If he and the others encountered it …
They couldn’t help but shiver. Everyone seemed to see their own broken limbs scattered all over the ground, rotting and festering, and big-headed flies pouncing on them to feast on them.
Did we come to the wrong place? this world is too dangerous!
Sensing the fear of battle spreading in the team, the black man urged everyone to bypass the swamp and speed up.
After they left, a few other teams passed by the ‘swamp’ with the same interesting expressions …
……
Time passed by in a flash, and Li Rui slowly opened his eyes under the altar of the temple. The divine light that seemed to have substance illuminated the entire room.
The surging energy in his body gradually receded, and the sound of his blood and Qi surging like a tidal wave slowly stopped.
Seeing that he had finished his training and stood up, ni Meng, who had been waiting at the side, walked up. Her cheeky face was filled with frustration.
“Captain, there are more people around us now.”
“Which group is this?”
I don’t know, but the encirclement is gradually forming. We don’t dare to go out to hunt. If this continues, we won’t have enough food.
Zheng taihong also walked up and looked at the divine steel on the altar with a depressed look.
In the past three days, they had tried everything they could think of, but they still couldn’t do anything about it. If they really couldn’t do it, they could only bear the pain and give up.
Li Rui was also unwilling at this time.
They were the first to discover it, so how could they let the latecomers have it?
