Chapter 178 Entering the jungle and encountering a beast
The spirit boat was a little unstable after being hit, but its speed did not slow down at all.
One after another, the aquatic beasts crashed into the spiritual energy shield and quickly fell into the lake. All the disciples who were sending spiritual power to the spiritual boat were shaken by the impact.
The disciples who came to Yanyun Realm for the first time looked at the aquatic beasts with the same curiosity as Leng Zhuxin, with both fighting spirit and fear in their eyes.
Leng Zhuxin looked more carefully. Although the wronged beast was transformed from a dead monster, it was very different from a ghost.
Ghosts have no physical form. Although the bodies of these wronged beasts are as light as mist and cannot be seen clearly when the water is clear and bright, they can be seen as long as the light is slightly dim. The force they use to hit the spiritual power shield must be physical.
Resentment turned into...
Leng Zhu thought about what Su Fanzhen had said about the origins of these wronged beasts, and vaguely felt that the technique of transforming grudges against evil spirits that she had learned in her previous life might be effective.
However, now on the lake, if the spiritual power shield is broken into a gap, a large number of wronged beasts will rush into the spiritual boat through the gap, overturn the spiritual boat, and everyone on the spiritual boat will be swept into the lake.
She couldn't gamble with everyone's lives, so she didn't act impulsively.
The spirit boat traveled forward for another quarter of an hour before leaving the area where the aquatic beasts were. The dark water surface became clear again and the sky became bright.
The few wronged beasts that rushed out of the center of the lake only bumped into the spiritual power shield once before falling back.
Everything was calm again, and the monks withdrew the spiritual power applied to the spiritual power shield.
They all sat cross-legged on the deck, racing against time to recover their spiritual power.
……
The Danluan Sect, which set out behind them, was still in the center of the lake.
In the past, most of the disciples of Danluan Sect crossed the lake together with other sects. They only needed to raise their hands to inject spiritual power into the spiritual power shield of the spiritual boat, and they did not really put in much effort.
Shi Xu and several other disciples who had been to Yanyun Realm once or twice thought that this time would be the same as before and they would not need to contribute any effort, so they did not talk about this matter in detail with others before entering Yanyun Realm, but just mentioned it casually.
He didn't know that he should inject spiritual power into the spiritual power shield before entering the center of the lake. He didn't react until he entered the center of the lake and the sky darkened.
Everyone attacked in a panic, holding back their own strength, until a wronged beast nearly broke through the spiritual shield, only then did they use all their strength.
The spirit boat was swaying left and right after being hit by the aquatic beasts, and they were swaying left and right along with the spirit boat. Soon some disciples withdrew their hands due to the collision.
Then came the second and third...
Soon a hole was created in the spiritual power shield, and the aquatic beasts swarmed in through the hole, with more than a dozen of them pouring in in just a moment.
Even though Chen Li was quick to restore the spiritual power shield, he could not drive out the aquatic beast that had already rushed in.
They could only send some people to fight against the aquatic beasts that were rushing in, trying to kill them as quickly as possible.
The aquatic beast is not very powerful, but it is very flexible and has great impact force.
The Danluan Sect's spirit boat suddenly became chaotic because of these aquatic beasts. If it hadn't been not far from the exit of the lake when the accident happened,
Their spirit boat was about to be overturned.
The Danluan Sect's spirit boat wobbled out of the center of the lake, and everyone on the boat felt like they had survived a disaster.
But before they could collapse on the ground, they noticed that the spirit boat had taken on water.
When he turned around, he found that a fish that had escaped the net had accidentally entered the cabin and knocked a big hole in the bottom of the boat.
The Danluan Sect was considered wealthy and powerful, and several of its direct disciples had spirit boats in their hands. Before the spirit boat sank to the bottom, they hurriedly released them all.
All the disciples rushed to the intact spirit boat and saved their lives.
After all this trouble, by the time they reached the shore, Leng Zhuxin and his group had already entered the dense forest, and only the disciples of their sect were left on the lakeshore covered with black pebbles.
Shi Xu looked at his fellow apprentices who were in a rather disheveled state, and after a rough count, he discovered that three of them had fallen into the lake.
He did not make a sound, nor did he intend to go back to look for the three people, because everyone who had been to Yanyun Realm once knew that anyone who fell into the lake had no chance of survival.
……
The dense forest shrouded in black fog was filled with the smell of danger. Leng Zhuxin felt enveloped in a gloomy atmosphere as he walked through it.
After their spirit boat docked, they went straight into the dense forest. The Nascent Soul Stage Great Perfection disciples with the highest cultivation level walked at the front and the end of the team, while the late Nascent Soul Stage disciples dispersed and walked on both sides.
The Jindan stage disciples with the lowest cultivation level were firmly guarded in the center of the team, on guard against vicious beasts at all times.
There was no sign of any living thing in the dense forest, not a single insect or bird, and the air was filled with death.
Even the trees inside looked like they had been burned to death, with no branches or green leaves left, and the soil underfoot seemed to be covered with a layer of ash.
Their team did not walk fast. As they walked, they searched for the silver-white altar that might appear anywhere in the dense forest. The altar was the entrance to the underground palace.
Finding the altar means having the qualifications to enter the underground palace.
In the dark forest, there was only light coming from the dead branches. Apart from them, there was no other figure, and no wronged beast was seen.
The beasts in the dense forest are different from the aquatic beasts. They are very good at camouflaging in dark environments. They are not white smoke like the aquatic beasts, but black.
In other words, they may attack the monks in the black fog at any time, and may even disguise themselves on the ground and dead trees.
There was a creaking sound coming from the front, as if the monk was stepping on dead branches one after another.
In an instant, a strong black wind blew up, and the dead trees on both sides creaked and shook. A ball of black mist formed in the air, spinning and dispersing. Everyone looked up, and saw terrifying beast faces appearing above their heads!
The beast faces formed by the black fog still have animal features, but each one looks extremely ferocious.
After it was formed, there was a strong sense of oppression, and tears of blood seemed to drip from the beast's eyes and drip onto the monk's head.
The blood-red eyes of the beast seemed to have some magical power, attracting all the monks to look up.
Leng Zhuxin only felt that a wronged beast was rushing towards her and biting her. All the cultivators around her disappeared, and it seemed as if she was the only one left in the world.
