Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 760: Distorted Human Nature
A proverb says that the more beautiful something looks, the more dangerous it becomes. The same goes for this beautiful forested mountain. It seems like a bunch of flowers and a pile of brocade with trees gives a pleasant feel, coupled with a misty white mist that adds a little wonderland flavor to it. However, Tang Xiu and his men, who had crossed the bridge and continued advancing for hundreds of meters, suddenly stopped as if they were going to face a formidable enemy.
That's a white pigeon. That's right, it's an ordinary white pigeon, but with a body that's ten times larger than an ordinary white pigeon — is comparable to an ox. Right now, he was lazily walking around on a patch of flowers and grass. Although it noticed the arrival of Tang Xiu and his people, it just casually glanced at them and spewed out a spray of fire.
But then, the flowers and plants instantly caught fire when the blue flames touched him. Just as it landed on the ground, the soccer ball-sized rock that was exposed to the flames instantly burned to blackened ash and scattered with the wind.
"This ... is a scary monster …"
Xue Sha was a very brave man, yet he was still scared and stunned by the sight before him.
Tang Xiu stared intently at the white pigeon as his eyes slowly explored the surroundings. Just a few seconds later, he found ants climbing a towering old tree. Ants were the size of an adult's fist, and although it was tens of meters away, he could clearly see that he had sharp claws.
"Look over there ..." Mo Awu suddenly whispered.
Tang Xiu looked in the direction he was pointing at and could not hold back his eyes. In the bushes about forty meters away, the hedgehog was drilling from below. It was as large as the previously bull-sized white pigeon as it swung its sharp spines regularly while its sharp and sharp mouth breathed out white air that was like a cold wind in winter, so cold that the flowers below are covered with a layer of frost.
“Continue forward. ”
Tang Xiu did not feel the hostility coming from this ferocious beast. Even when he deliberately approached the white dove, he only weakly looked at it before walking away, as if this was his own courtyard.
After half an hour, Tang Xiu was still calm even though he was also somewhat surprised. But Mo Awu, Jin Shi, and the others were so shocked that they became numb. As they walked all the way up and climbed to the height of a quarter of the height under that special pressure, they had met hundreds of animals, he said, but the size of each of these animals was dozens of times larger than the one in the outside world. These animals obviously had their own characteristics, but their common point was that they could all fly! Even a pig can step on the air and has the ability to fly slowly.
"This is a beast paradise!"
Tang Xiu recalled the ferocious beast he raised in the Eternal World and smiled. All those spirit beasts had their own feelings, and some of them were extremely intelligent. For example, a group of monkeys and monkeys two meters high. Although they are not hostile towards humans, they often play tricks on people by throwing melons and fruits.
"We can no longer go upstairs, Boss," Mo Awu breathed violently as he spoke with difficulty with a flushed and sweaty face on his forehead.
Tang Xiu turned his gaze to Mo Awu and also observed the others. Finally, he said helplessly, "Then stay here because you can't continue! Awu, you are wearing an interspatial ring, so you and the others are taking all the herbs, fruits, and ores. Keep everything in your ring. ”
"Yes!" Mo Awu slightly nodded. They did see many precious and rare plants. Many of them are even thousands of years old. A large number of trees have a variety of valuable fruits and they can smell their scent from afar, and they can find some valuable ores if they look around. It could fetch a great price once they were sold in the outside world.
The mountain itself has no path or path.
Tang Xiu stepped on the stone to jump and jump again, continuing to rise under the pressure while picking up and storing all the precious herbs, spirit fruits, and herbs, and the ore he could find on the way to his interspatial ring. After spending a full two hours, he finally arrived at the halfway point to the mountain slope. But his harvest within these two hours had already surpassed all the herbs, spirit fruits, and ores he had obtained in the outside world.
“I can no longer climb. ”
Tang Xiu felt a little regretful as he helplessly looked at the majestic palace on the mountain peak. Great pressure blocked his way forward. He was lucky that his physical strength far exceeded that of an ordinary person, otherwise he would not be able to reach this mountain slope at all. He did have the intention to use this immense pressure to help stimulate and dampen the potential of his body, but given that he had yet to fully complete the Embezzlement Virus, he had yet to fully resolve it, he had no choice but to give up and planned to return later.
On the way down the mountain, Tang Xiu met some spirit beasts seven meters tall over. One of them was a huge tiger whose suppressing aura made Tang Xiu shiver inside. Fortunately, this spirit beast had no intention to attack humans and simply ignored Tang Xiu's arrival.
Whoa…
Tang Xiu jumped off a boulder and appeared beside Mo Awu. Then, he said with a smile, “Tell everyone to gather here. We're leaving this place. ”
"There are so many resources here, Boss," Mo Awu said quickly. “Come here is quite difficult, so I think we should stay here for a while. We have to take a little more so that we can have more resources in the future! "
"Not in a hurry. Besides, this mountain will not walk. "Tang Xiu chuckled. “We have to solve the problem outside first, and only after that can we have free time to look for cultivation resources. But don't worry! I'll call Xiaoxue after going out. I will tell him to come here with more people. ”
Mo Awu understood quickly and smilingly said, “Well, I'm a bit afraid of being poor, to be honest. Don't laugh at me, boss. ”
Tang Xiu simply smiled in response and did not say anything. He understood Mo Awu's mentality, to begin with. Speaking of it, the Everlasting Feast Hall indeed did not have that many resources available. Although they had purchased a large amount of medicinal materials, precious ores, and other cultivation resources through various channels recently, the Eternal Feast Hall had many people, not least, while they also had to train a large number of children. Therefore, the amount of resources given to everyone was really very small.
Crunched…
The brake sound suddenly woke Tang Xiu from his sleep. The inaction almost made him hit the front seat. With furrowed brows, Tang Xiu looked forward and asked, "What happened?"
Mo Awu turned his head and replied, "There's a corpse by the side of the road, Boss. Many of them . ”
Tang Xiu frowned and after opening the door to get down from the car, he immediately saw dozens of corpses on both sides of the road. Some of the corpses even rotted, with the insects around them emitting creaking and crackling sounds.
"They were not killed, but ... people infected with the Embezzlement Virus?"
Anger and strong killing intent burst out within Tang Xiu's heart against the main cause of this Embezzlement Virus — people from the Stygian Club. He had received the news a few days ago that hundreds of people had died from the Darkening Virus outbreak, but he had yet to see the place of death, so did not have the strong anger that it was now.
But if at this moment there was a member of the Stygian Club, he couldn't wait to use all the means at his disposal to completely exterminate this mass murderer.
"Gather the bodies, dig the graves and bury them!"
Tang Xiu issued an order and returned to the car. As he took out a cigarette and lit it, he took two deep puffs. Just as he was about to call Gu Xiaoxue, he discovered that his phone had no signal. After some thought, he called Mo Awu because he remembered that Division Commander Yang gave him some communication devices when he left the military headquarters, and all of them were stored inside Mo Awu's interspatial ring.
After operating the communicator device, Tang Xiu dialed Gu Xiaoxue's cell number and spoke, "Xiaoxue, I'll send you the coordinates later. You should come here and bring some people who are adept at identifying plants and ores. We have found a treasure mountain; this place has enormous precious herbs and ores. ”
"Understand, Grand Master. '' Gu Xiaoxue replied.
"By the way, how's Yaner doing now?" Tang Xiu asked after remembering something.
“Teacher is still in a very nice pagoda healing his wounds every day. He occasionally goes out for a walk, but his injuries get much better and is expected to heal completely within two years. ”
"That's great!" Said Tang Xiu. "Tell him to stay in the Eternal Feast Hall. Now I'm on a very important mission outside. I don't know when this matter will be handled properly for now. But you will understand the situation here when you arrive. Also, tell Yaner that I will head straight to Jingmen Island when I finish dealing with this matter. ”
"Good . ”
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiu smoked two cigarettes in a row, while Mo Awu and the others buried a dozen corpses. That place is far enough. There was no village or shop in front, while the surrounding atmosphere was very quiet.
However, when the car had just started, two cars came roaring from the front and headed towards them very quickly. Their speed was almost 180 km/h, and even after they saw the four off-road cars ahead, it seemed that these two cars had no intention of slowing down at all. Instead, his speed increased rapidly as the deafening metal music drew nearer.
It was a rampant and arrogant attitude! And also crazy beyond madness!
The most shocking scene was that someone was tied up on the roof of the front car. And it looks like it's a kid.
"Block them and stop them!" Tang Xiu's eyes turned cold as he shouted.
Mo Awu suddenly turned the wheel and slowed down his car at once. The SUV in the back followed as he lowered the glass to hint at nearby Ye Shisan to stop the car.
CREAAAAK …
The two cars hundreds of meters away suddenly stepped on the brakes, stopping ten meters away from them. Only at this moment did Tang Xiu clearly see that the one tied up on the roof of the car was a ragged, battered, bloody teenage girl —.
"He's alive?"
Disciple Tang Xiu suddenly contracted. After opening the door and exiting, he watched the seven burly men jump out of the two cars and rush towards him, adding to the anger already stored inside.
