Chapter 753 - 753 No Way Back
753 No Way Back
The feeling of not being able to control one’s will was too strange and terrifying. If this continued, one wouldn’t even know how one died.
“This oasis is indeed very strange. There’s no life force. Although there are trees, there’s no sign of any living beings. We must be on high alert here. We can’t let our guard down.”
Li Xiang nodded. The words of Wushuang Ghost also proved his previous guess. What everyone saw was different from person to person. It targeted the flaws in everyone’s heart.
The purpose of the song was to lure people into the oasis.
The danger in the oasis would erupt next. Some clues should be revealed before that.
At this moment, all the beasts, monsters, and foreign races that had entered the oasis had woken up.
All of them looked around, their eyes filled with fear.
After all, they had suddenly appeared in the oasis with a large group of foreign races. In the past, many of them were mortal enemies. Under such circumstances, an instinctive sense of danger made these fierce beasts and monsters not attack immediately. Instead, they began to spread out in various areas. Some headed for the forests, some rushed into the grasslands, and some headed for the lake.
The Human cultivators were also filled with fear.
“I’m over. I thought it was an undiscovered oasis, but it turned out to be the Devil Oasis. I was greatly affected by a sound unconsciously and entered this d*mn Devil Oasis. It’s said that no one who enters the Devil Oasis leaves alive.”
“I was wondering why I’d never heard of an oasis nearby. So it’s the Devil Oasis. However, since I’ve come, I’d like to see what’s so terrifying about the Devil Oasis that they can kill me here. It won’t be easy to kill me.” Some cultivators revealed malevolent expressions.
Since there was no chance of survival, it stimulated their arrogance even more. They were going to die anyway, so they weren’t afraid.
“Everyone has entered the Devil Oasis now. Regardless of whether we knew each other before, I think that we should work together and think of a way to survive in this oasis,” someone suggested.
“Look! We can’t get out. We can’t see the desert outside. There was nothing but only a void. Is this a cage? There’s no way back. This is cutting off our retreat.” Some people turned back in the direction they came from in horror.
Outside the oasis, there was no desert or yellow sand. All that could be seen was nothingness. It was as if the oasis was a cage of nothingness, completely isolated from the outside world. They couldn’t leave or return.
Outside the void, there was a huge layer of fog that isolated and blocked everything. It was impossible to go back now.
Entering it was like entering a cage, and a land of death.
“Country Lord, I’m afraid we can’t get out this time.” Wushuang Ghost’s expression also changed. He could instinctively feel the terrifying and dangerous aura that was being transmitted from the void.
The dangerous aura was enough to annihilate everything. It was death and despair.
“There is always leave a way out. There will be a way out sooner or later. Since we can come in, we can also leave for sure,” said Li Xiang with great confidence.
He didn’t believe that no one could return alive from the forbidden zone.
Perhaps it wasn’t that no one had escaped from the Devil Oasis, but that no one knew even if they did.
Roar!
At this moment, the sandworms that rushed into the forest suddenly let out angry and frightened roars as if they were under a terrible threat.
This cry also attracted countless gazes.
They could not help but be shocked.
A large number of fierce beasts chose to enter the immense forest. This was originally a choice that came from their instincts. However, as soon as they stepped into the forest, they saw ferocious roots emerging from the ground without any warning. They waved around like spiritual snakes and tied up the fierce beasts. Some roots turned into long spears and stabbed into their bodies.
In an instant, the roots that stabbed into the fierce beasts’ bodies began to turn red, as red as blood.
The fierce beasts’ bodies began to dry up at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its flesh and blood were devoured. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a pile of bones. Even the bones were taken into the ground by the roots and buried deep in the soil, finally becoming their nutrients.
Countless roots emerged from the ground. There were so many that it was unimaginable. They were so dense that it was impossible to count.
Most of the fierce beasts that entered died under this wave of concentrated attacks and completely became the nourishment of the sea of trees. Upon closer inspection, the trunks of these ancient trees were frighteningly thick. One could even vaguely see strange faces on the trunks. They seemed to be laughing strangely.
A satisfied expression appeared on their faces as they laughed.
It was the feeling of tasting something delicious, which was very spooky.
“So terrifying! There are so many roots emerging from the ground. Each one of them is like a divine weapon. When they wrap around the body, even ferocious beasts can’t break free. They are so sharp that they can easily cut through the ferocious beasts’ bodies.”
“Not only that, but those leaves were also comparable to the most terrifying hidden weapons. The ferocious birds flying in the sky were all killed. They were torn open countless wounds and their bodies were pierced through. It’s extremely brutal!”
A lot of people had seen that the flying beasts’ bodies had been pierced by the leaves that had burst out in the sky, and it was not inferior to ten thousand arrows piercing through them.
However, the weird thing was that there was no smell of blood.
All the blood had been sucked dry. All the flesh had been turned into nutrients. Even the bones were buried deep underground, becoming nutrients.
These ancient trees were the most terrifying predators.
It even made the air emit a natural fragrance, and no one would notice that a terrible slaughter had just happened. Everything returned to normal as if the massacre had not happened. Everything was the same as when they first entered the oasis.
Of course, there were still some differences.
For example, the trunk of the tree had become a little thicker, and the branches and leaves had become lusher.
“Look over there by the lake!”
Some cultivators pointed at the lake and shouted, their faces filled with horror.
They subconsciously turned their heads and many of them broke out in cold sweats.
The fierce beasts and monsters rushed to the lake to drink water or even to take a bath. Just as they went near the lake, water gushed out from the lake and turned into huge claws. They grabbed the fierce beasts and monsters and pulled them into the lake. Just a pull and a tug made a large number of fierce beasts fall in.
There were also water currents that turned into tentacles like octopuses. They tied up the fierce beasts and pulled them into the lake.
As long as the monsters and fierce beasts were pulled into the lake, they would disappear completely in the blink of an eye no matter how hard they struggled.
