After this experience, the disciples' contempt for the ancient barbarians disappeared.

Especially when they saw Agusu's smiling face, some people trembled.

The other party must have seen their behavior a long time ago, but they didn't say anything. She only came to rescue them when they knew they were being tricked.

With kindness, even if the other person did it on purpose, you can't blame anything. A gentle knife can kill people.

This is a friendly reminder from the ancient barbarian clan to outside monks, and it is also a response to those slights.

So what about savages.

As long as you are strong enough, even if you are really a primitive person, you still have to bow your head.

And these are the tacit understanding between the ancient barbarian clan and the nine sects, so those elders remained silent from beginning to end, watching their disciples make mistakes.

There are mountain people outside the mountains, and there are people outside the mountains.

No one knows whether the person a mountain away is a pitiful ant that can be trampled by you, or a wild beast that can trample you.

In the strange peace, they brought the dead wood outside.

The plants in the Guman Mountains are very lush, and there are many big trees in the sky. Therefore, many places are covered by lush tree crowns, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.

But when they saw the dead wood forest in front of them, they seemed to have been transported to another place.

As the word "dead wood" says.

Looking around, there are large gray-brown branches, which are dim, like tree stumps that have been dead for many years.

But these trees are still "growing" high-spirited. Because they have no leaves, their branches have unique nutrients. They are very thick and their shapes are also extremely twisted.

One by one, they were baring their teeth and claws, as if they were performing some strange ritual.

As soon as they get close to here, everyone can feel the oppressive environment.

Too quiet.

Behind you, you can hear the chirping of insects in the normal mountains. The wind blows through the mountains and forests, and the sound is extremely pleasant.

But ahead, there is a land of deathly silence.

The ground was brown and very dry, as if it hadn't rained all year round, and there were dry gaps everywhere.

Inside, even if the wind blows, it can't make any sound.

There are two worlds before and after.

At this time, everyone felt that the power that suppressed their cultivation was disappearing, and the totem blessing belonging to the ancient barbarians appeared.

One after another light and shadow flashed away.

Among them are towering green trees, a roaring beast, and a blue snake.

Those are the totems of the three tribes respectively.

Along with the blessing, a little bit of witchcraft power appears.

The misty drizzle falls, softly and sweetly.

The sound of leaves in the green wood wind combined with the sound of rain made the air fresh.

A roar of a beast in the distance pulled people out of that strange experience.

Many people's eyes flickered, feeling the impact of that different power.

In this drizzle, the voices of the elders rang in my ears.

"go in."

"Everyone, if you want to quit, just crush the jade pendant you are carrying, and then stand there and wait for someone to come and take over."

Streams of light streaked across the sky, and those elders went to the other end of the dead wood forest. What they had to do was to reach the finish line in the fastest time and win the final victory.

"Let's go."

"hurry up."

There was no need to rush them now, not one of them entered the dead wood forest.

Although there are many people coming to each case, collective action is not required. As long as someone can reach the key point first, it is victory.

So they mostly choose to act in small groups.

On the Hidden Sword Sect's side, Liu Ru and Lu Yun talked about it, but Lu Yun didn't refuse.

Shangguan Li was arranging the team. In order to ensure safety, the powerful ones were separated.

There is a small team of five people. The four teams are led by Lu Yun, Shangguan Li, Feng Yuyao and Song Xiao respectively.This allocation is indeed very appropriate, that is, Feng Yuyao and Song Xiao have to act separately.

"You...be careful." Feng Yuyao whispered beside Song Xiao, with a little hesitation in her hesitant attitude.

"Okay, I know, you should be careful too."

Lifting up the strands of hair beside Feng Yuyao's ears and arranging them, Song Xiao smiled extremely tenderly, and her doting eyebrows made people fall in love with her.

The gentleness that a person with a cold nature occasionally shows is like the warm sun in winter, which warms the bones. Especially when this kind of tenderness is only for you, it is even more irresistible.

Lu Yun glanced at the two people and led the team in.

They were not the first to set off. There were already teams in front of them that moved quickly and disappeared after a few breaths.

Lu Yun was not in a hurry.

This place is really so easy to conquer, why would Agusu take the initiative to mention the dangers here.

"Ayun, the trees here are both dead and alive, so be careful underground."

"Besides, my power is useless here."

Agusu was secretly opening the back door for Lu Yun. Listening to the reminder in his mind, Lu Yun nodded in Agusu's direction to express his understanding.

Stepping into the dead wood forest, Lu Yun froze.

Why die?
The soul is scattered, the six paths are gone, and there is no reincarnation.

But, to put it more simply, there is no life left.

These dead trees give people the same feeling. They are obviously growing in this soil, but they seem to have been dead for a long time.

Someone dared to touch it, and with a little force, the trunk cracked, and the almost fluffy wood chips inside could be seen.

"What the hell?"

The team murmured, avoiding the direction set by these dead tree kings.

Lu Yun raised her head and glanced at Yangri.

At this point, noon has not passed, so the sun is still directly overhead. The scorching sunlight falls here. Without the shade of the trees, we should be able to feel the sun's temperature more intuitively.

No.

The temperature did not rise, but fell.

Lu Yun touched the dead trees with her fingers and moved her fingers to break open a small piece of the tree.

It feels rough and abrasive, and with a little force, the wood breaks into granular sawdust, which is very brittle.

but……

Lu Yun handed a piece of bark to Liu Ru.

"How do you feel?" she asked.

Liu Ru imitated Lu Yun and touched it: "It seems a bit too loose."

If a tree were described as a person, then the piece of meat in her hand would be like a piece of dead meat with no bones or meridians.

But if a person dies normally, the flesh and blood will rot, but the bones will last for thousands of years.

These dead trees seem to be the opposite of the normal process.

"What else?" she continued to ask.

The sun was a bit dazzling, and Lu Yun squinted at her surroundings. Because of her calmness, most of the team had already arrived in front of her.

The people who came with her were all people who trusted Lu Yun. They did not urge her at this moment, but listened curiously to the conversation between the two. One of the disciples named Song Jihen also got involved.

"Sister Lu, the temperature seems wrong."

Song Jihen's tone was actually positive.

It can be said that this forest of dead trees is exposed to the sun all day long as long as the sun comes out. In addition, the dead trees themselves tend to be black in color. Even if the body surface temperature does not reach obvious warmth, it should not be as hot as in their hands. It's so cold.

The temperature of the sun seems to have disappeared here.

"Correct."

Lu Yun remembered that Agusu said, these trees are both dead and alive.

If we talk about death, what is dead is the dead wood they see, then what is the living part?
