C109 The Legend of the Black Tree Forest
At noon the next day, on a plain, two men and a woman were running fast on the plain.
They were Ye Hongtian and the others who came out of the city. They left the city early in the morning and started to rush towards the Ye Clan.
Ye Li came to Ye Hongtian's side and asked with a smile, "Young Master Hongtian, are you tired? Do you need some rest?"
Ye Hongtian shook his head and didn't say anything. He sped up again.
Ye Li had been acting weird since the three of them met up this morning. He kept asking Ye Hongtian about his health, which made Ye Hongtian feel numb.
Ye Hongtian even regretted helping Ye Li treat the fire poison. He felt it was actually quite good to let Ye Li continue to be tortured by the fire poison.
At this time, Ye Ling slowly came to Ye Hongtian's side and said with a serious face, "Young Master Hongtian, not far ahead is the Black Tree Forest. When the time comes, you must not separate from us. The Black Tree Forest is filled with danger. Even if the True Yuan Mirror enters it, it must be careful. "
Ye Hong Tian glanced at Ye Ling beside him and nodded seriously. He also knew some rumors about the Black Tree Forest. Although it was just a rumor, he would rather believe it than not.
Not long after the three of them walked, black trees appeared in their eyes. Their expressions also became serious following the appearance of these black trees!
This Black Tree Forest already existed a long time ago. No one knew how it was formed. No one knew how long it had existed. Everything about it was a mystery to the people now. Ye Hong Tian recalled the legend of the Black Tree Forest in his mind.
It was said that there was once a True Energy Realm cultivator who had encountered a bottleneck. In the end, he had no choice but to enter the Black Tree Forest to try his luck and see if there was a chance to break through.
Just like that, that True Energy Mirror martial artist entered the Black Tree Forest for twenty years. Just as the world was about to forget about this True Energy Mirror martial artist, this True Energy Mirror martial artist came out of the Black Tree Forest!
When this True Energy Mirror martial artist came out of the Black Tree Forest, his body was already covered in wounds. His body was covered in dried blood, looking incomparably miserable.
Not long after he came out of the Black Tree Forest, this true essence mirror martial artist broke through. This caused many people who were troubled by bottlenecks in their cultivation to come over and ask this true essence mirror martial artist about what had happened in the Black Tree Forest.
But this True Essence Mirror martial artist didn't mention a single word about this matter, and even angrily chased these people out.
Everyone thought that this True Essence Mirror martial artist wanted to monopolize all the treasures in the Black Tree Forest. They secretly organized a group of people to capture this martial artist alive.
After capturing him alive, they tortured this martial artist day and night, wanting to force out the secrets of the Black Tree Forest from his mouth.
Finally, this true essence mirror martial artist couldn't bear the torment of these people and told him everything that happened within the Black Tree Forest.
He said that he had been attacked by a powerful beast not long after entering the Black Tree Forest. That beast was much stronger than him and he could only run. He kept running until he finally arrived at a swamp.
He had thought that with his cultivation at the True Essence Mirror, he could fly. Flying over the swamp was not a problem, but when he stimulated his True Essence and wanted to fly in the air, he found that his body was incomparably heavy. It was as if someone had forcefully pressed him down; he couldn't fly no matter how hard he tried.
As he saw that the beast was getting closer and closer to him, he felt a deep sense of despair. And at this time, the appearance of a gray-clothed old man gave him a chance to live.
He knelt in front of the old man and continuously begged him to save him. As long as he could save him, he was willing to do anything.
For some unknown reason, the old man had saved this martial artist. It was said that he had killed a True Origin Mirror beast with a single palm.
Afterwards, the old man brought the martial artist to a small wooden house in the swamp and asked about the purpose of the martial artist entering the Black Tree Forest.
After learning that this martial artist was trapped by a cultivation bottleneck, he said that he could help a martial artist break through a bottleneck. However, the condition was that he couldn't tell others about him after he left.
The martial artist agreed to the old man's request without thinking. Then, the old man placed him in a group of wild beasts and began to fight with them.
These wild beasts were slightly weaker than him, but they were much stronger in terms of quantity. He used 20 years to finally kill all of these wild beasts.
After killing these wild beasts, although he was riddled with wounds, he did feel the bottleneck loosen up. Then, he bid farewell to the old man and left the Black Tree Forest.
What happened afterwards wasn't a secret anymore. After those people understood the situation, they kept their promise and released this martial artist. Then, they formed a group and went to the Black Tree Forest to look for that old man.
After several months of searching, not only did these people not find the old man, they didn't even find a wild beast. This made them feel as if they had been played.
Then, some of them left. They felt that it would be a waste of time to search for this old man. It would be better to go home and enter seclusion for a few years.0
Afterwards, no one knew about what had happened in the Black Tree Forest. The martial artist who had received the old man's help to break through had mysteriously died a year after that group of people had entered the Black Tree Forest. As for those who entered the Black Tree Forest, other than a few people who came out halfway, no one had come out.
Although this sort of thing happened, there were still many martial artists who entered the Black Tree Forest to try their luck because of bottlenecks, but none of them succeeded in breaking through.
Even in recent years, there were still many martial artists who entered the Black Tree Forest to search for lucky chances. Each family would also send out their own scouting teams to explore the Black Tree Forest. But ever since that incident... No one had ever seen a marshland, nor had they ever seen an old man.
Although the marshes and old men were no longer there, there were still many strange natural treasures in the Black Tree Forest. Those natural treasures were also very precious.
There were also some exceptionally powerful wild beasts living in the depths of the forest. It was said that there were even Divine Origin Realm wild beasts among them!
As for the species, no one dared to check them. Who would dare disturb the hibernation of a Divine Source Realm wild beast?
Just as Ye Hong Tian was recalling the legends, the three of them had already arrived in front of the Black Tree Forest. Ye Hong Tian looked up at the black towering trees and could not help but gulp.
He did not see it from afar. When he arrived at the foot of the black tree, he realized how big the black tree was. It was at least forty to fifty feet tall.
"Young Master Hong Tian, you must follow us closely after entering the Black Tree Forest. If anything happens, Ye Ling and I will take care of it. Young Master only needs to ensure his own safety." Ye Li looked at Ye Hong Tian and said seriously.
Ye Hongtian nodded and said, "Okay." Then he slowly walked into the forest.
