Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1189 - 524: Azure Miasma

After passing through here, the road they took next was relatively safer.

Although it was still dense forest, it was no longer as dangerous as the Cannibal Trees.

Walking along the path, they even took the time to occasionally admire the scenery between the trees.

"This path, do you think someone deliberately opened it up?"

Xu Qingqiu walked along with some curiosity, looking at the scenery ahead as she said, "I just don’t know where our destination will turn out to be."

"We’ll know once we get there."

Ning Qi also stepped forward, looking at the dense forest around them: "But this road is really long. We’ve been walking for so long and still haven’t reached the end."

"Master, why do I feel like we’ve been walking in circles the whole time?"

The Medicine Spirit flew back and forth here, looking at the surroundings, and couldn’t help speaking.

"Circles? Didn’t you notice the scenery in this forest keeps changing?"

"What circles? It’s just that this place is too big!"

Xu Qingqiu smiled, looked ahead and said, "I feel like we’ll have to find a place to rest tonight; getting out of here is impossible!"

"Tomorrow, if we hurry on, we’ll definitely make it out!"

"Master, actually... I also feel like we’re going in circles."

At this moment, the Nine-tailed Cat, who had rarely spoken, finally opened its mouth.

"Oh? Really? Let me see!"

Hearing it, Ning Qi finally grew more vigilant.

If it had only been the Medicine Spirit saying so, he could have brushed it off.

But since the spiritual Nine-tailed Cat said the same, this was worth investigating.

Then, he leaped into the air.

By this point, he could already fly up into the void and was no longer restricted as he had been back in the hilly region.

"Hu!"

When Ning Qi reached the sky above the dense forest, he discovered that on both sides of the passage they were walking, stretched endless forest.

These forests covered everything within sight.

Thick and dense, like a swarm of locusts.

Only the road they were walking on was clear, as if some Barrier was restricting them.

They could not cross this line of Lei.

"What’s going on?"

Ning Qi murmured, his brows tightly furrowed.

"This is..."

At some point, Xu Qingqiu also flew over, hovering beside him, staring in surprise at everything here.

"I don’t know."

Ning Qi shook his head and sighed: "Looks like our luck isn’t great. There are traps everywhere here."

"I’m thinking, maybe from the very start we shouldn’t have followed those hills and come here?"

Xu Qingqiu’s beautiful eyes narrowed as she continued sweeping her gaze over the dense forest before them.

For the moment, she still couldn’t see what the trick was here.

"Master, can these trees move? We feel like they’re like people, staring at us."

The Medicine Spirit also flew onto Ning Qi’s shoulder, lowering its voice as it spoke to him.

"How did you notice that?"

Hearing the Medicine Spirit, Ning Qi narrowed his eyes, looking at the surroundings.

For the time being, he hadn’t discovered any clues.

"I don’t know either, but I just keep getting that feeling."

"It just feels gloomy."

The Medicine Spirit shook its head hard, then shrank its neck.

"Maybe it’s because he was refined from all kinds of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, so he has a unique Perception of these trees."

Hearing the Medicine Spirit, Xu Qingqiu said to Ning Qi.

"That’s possible too!"

Ning Qi nodded, eyes slightly narrowed: "Hmph, in that case, I’ll test their weight."

"I want to see which bastard is putting on this God act."

"Don’t be impulsive, in case..."

Xu Qingqiu tried to stop him.

But Ning Qi gave her a reassuring look: "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."

"Yeah, don’t be afraid, my master is very strong."

"He also has the Chaos Flame; worst case, he’ll just burn them all!"

The Medicine Spirit had been waiting for Ning Qi to make a move. Hearing he was about to act, it grew excited.

At this moment, Ning Qi had already reached the edge of the dense forest.

His eyes fixed on these strange trees, then he directly took out the Chaos Sword.

He quietly circulated his Immortal Demon Power.

"Hu!"

Ning Qi took a deep breath, then waved his hand.

A stream of Sword Qi burst forth like a bolt of light.

In an instant, it hacked toward the forest before him.

"Ka!"

The rows of trees in front of him were instantly sliced in half.

"Pu!"

From within the trunks, strands of green Qi sprayed out.

Surging forth, they shrouded the dense forest before him.

"What’s happening?"

Seeing this, Xu Qingqiu immediately tensed up.

She landed not far from Ning Qi at once, already prepared to defend.

"Don’t panic, let’s see what happens!"

Ning Qi did not recklessly rush in to investigate.

He simply gave a slight wave of his hand, signaling Xu Qingqiu to fall back a bit.

As she retreated, Ning Qi also stepped back a few paces, continuing to observe what was happening ahead.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the green mist before them gradually dispersed.

"Master, the... trees have recovered!"

At that moment, the Medicine Spirit cried out.

It was the first to see what had happened inside.

The trees that Ning Qi had just cut down had already returned to their original state, as if nothing had happened.

On the contrary, they looked even straighter and taller.

"There’s definitely something off!"

Xu Qingqiu’s expression grew grave as she looked at the scene before her.

"Then I can only test them with my Blazing Flame!"

As he spoke, Ning Qi directly circulated the Red Fire Immortal Art.

White Blazing Flame instantly coiled around his hands.

"Go!"

Ning Qi waved his hands, and Water Patterns immediately swirled around.

They turned into rings of Blazing Flame and shot toward the forest ahead.

In an instant, they swallowed the woods before them.
