"Wow, are you sure this place is not heaven, father?" Fan was fascinated by the paradise-like scenery here.
In this forest, countless fifteen-ter-high trees were arranged randomly like a maze. Every ti the wind blew, it would release a pleasant rustling sound like a lody from heaven, soothing everyone's soul.
Yun Lintian observed these ancient trees carefully and found out their quality was no less than the Serene Bamboo and Heavenly Sandalwood within the Land of Beyond Heaven. In short, every tree and plant in this place was akin to a heavenly treasure.
"These trees… I had never seen such a divine quality like them before. How could they still exist here until now?" Guchang was both puzzled and amazed at the sa ti.
In the past, countless profound practitioners had co to this place to try their luck. According to commonsense, these trees should be long gone by now. After all, a piece of them was equal to a city-worth fortune. It was hard to believe they could survive until now.
Yun Lintian also doubted it. "Perhaps this place is not the sa as the forest everyone knows?"
Guchang nodded his head slowly. "It's possible."
"Do you feel sothing odd here?" Mu Qiuxue suddenly asked. Seeing everyone turning to her, she said further. "The wood elent in the air is unstable… What should I say? It's constantly decreasing at an almost unnoticeable rate."
Mu Qiuxue's talent was well known throughout the Central Continent. Her strength relied on her extraordinary perception and comprehension. She was highly sensitive when it ca to elents in the air.
"Decreasing?" Yun Lintian repeated in surprise and began to concentrate. A mont later, he perceived the surrounding wood elent was indeed decreasing.
Thinking of this, Yun Lintian shot into the sky, planning to gain a bird's eye view of the whole forest.
Bang!
Before Yun Lintian could pass the top of the tree's level, he suddenly hit an invisible barrier, causing him to bounce back and fall onto the ground heavily.
"Are you alright?" Mu Qiuxue asked.
Yun Lintian got up from the ground and patted the dust off his robe. "I'm fine. It seems this is no flying zone."
Guchang frowned slightly and flew into the air. When he reached the position Yun Lintian had been earlier, he reached his hand out and, surprisingly discovered an invisible barrier. "This doesn't seem to be a formation…. What is it?"
"Well, we can only move forward first." Yun Lintian said. He had no idea about the Tree of Life's position. He could easily guess it should be located at the forest's center.
"Yeah." Guchang nodded in agreent as he returned to the ground.
Swoosh!
As Yun Lintian's group was about to continue forward, they suddenly caught a movent several ters ahead. At the sa ti, two figures in green appeared in their sights.
Yun Lintian was stunned on the spot when he saw these two figures because he was extrely familiar with their appearances.
The two figures were beautiful won with slender shapes. Their long hairs were bright green in color, blending into the surroundings. The most notable feature on their faces was their pointy ears. They were ninety-nine percent resembled the legendary western fantasy character, an elf!
"Who are you?" The elf girl with the ponytail hairstyle aid her arrow at Yun Lintian's group. She had a pair of sharp eyes erald in color. Her face features were unlike any human in the Azure World. They were inclined toward the westerner of Earth with high nose-bridge and long brows.
Guchang and Mu Qiuxue didn't answer. They turned to look at Yun Lintian, waiting for him to decide.
"These two sisters, we have no ill intention." Unexpectedly, Fan spoke first.
Guchang's face was cramped, and he quickly said. "Shut up!"
Fan looked at his father in confusion, as if he was asking, what did he do wrong?
Yun Lintian was surprised that these two "elf" girls spoke the sa language as his. This made things easier.
Yun Lintian raised his hand and replied truthfully. "My na is Yun Lintian. I am here to find the Tree of Life."
Guchang and Mu Qiuxue looked at him in a dumbfounded manner… Aren't you too honest? At the sa ti, it was the first ti they had learned Yun Lintian's true na.
,m Sure enough, the expressions of the two elf girls turned cold instantly. They tightened their grips on the wooden bows, and the ponytail girl said coldly. "You should leave this place."
Yun Lintian shook his head slightly. "Unfortunately, we won't leave."
The atmosphere beca intense as his voice fell. Both sides stared at each other without moving.
"What are you going to do?" Mu Qiuxue couldn't help asking Yun Lintian through a sound transmission.
"Wait and see." Yun Lintian replied simply.
He looked at the elf girls and said calmly. "On the way here, I saw this place slowly getting swallowed by Abyssal Energy. I don't know exactly what happened and how Abyssal Energy appeared here, but I can see this forest is in a bad situation. Once the white mist outside disappeared, countless people would rush here. At that ti, you will face a great calamity that is even worse than Abyssal Energy you're facing right now."
He paused for a mont and said. "If you trust , I can help you."
The ponytail girl frowned and responded coldly. "Everyone said humans are full of deceptions. It seems everything is true… Leave!"
Yun Lintian nodded in agreent. "Yes, I agree with that statent. Humans are indeed deceptive. The problem is that there are two kinds of deceptions. One is for ourselves, and another is for others…."
The long-haired girl said coldly. "Leave now!" She didn't want to listen to Yun Lintian's nonsense further.
Yun Lintian sighed, and his figure disappeared from the spot before reappearing behind the ponytail girl. Before she could react, Yun Lintian had already held her neck.
"You!" The long-haired girl was shocked and prepared to shoot at Yun Lintian. However, Mu Qiuxue had already appeared behind her and completely controlled her.
"What are you going to do?" The ponytail girl said coldly. Even though her life was in Yun Lintian's hands, there was no slight trace of fear in her eyes.
