Outside the door is a dense forest, with towering ancient trees extending into the field of vision. The sky is still overcast with only a faint hint of skylight. The woods were not quiet, there were chirping insects everywhere, and occasionally there was a roar of wild beasts.
Ning Tao opened his eyes and walked out of the temple. Looking back, he discovered that the temple was possessed by a huge bird's nest, and it was not on the ground, but on the branches of a huge tree. .
How big is this tree
Just the branch under his feet can completely allow a large passenger plane to land and take off.
This super scary giant tree grew in a valley, so when he opened the door just now, he had the feeling of standing on the ground looking up at the mountains in the sky, but in fact he was on a branch in the crown of this giant tree.
How big is the bird's nest
Any tree branch used to build the bird's nest was as thick as his thigh. The temple was embedded in the bird's nest, looking like a children's toy.
This tree, this bird's nest, Ning Tao suddenly felt like he had turned into an ant. An immortal like him is so small in this tree and in this bird's nest.
Nanmen Xunxian, Tang Zixian, Immortal Fire Phoenix, and Pixiu Jinzang also walked out of the small ruined temple.
"Here... is actually a tree!" Nanmen Xunxian was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
"Is this... is this a bird's nest?" Tang Zixian was also shocked.
Although Pixiu Jinzang can be regarded as an "aboriginal" of the Everfree Forest, he was taken away by Yingren when he was very young and does not understand this place at all, so he was stunned. Everything he saw was novel and very exciting.
Only the immortal fire phoenix was calm, and neither the giant tree nor the big bird's nest interested her at all.
Ning Tao said: "Chong Er, where is this place, what kind of tree is this tree, and what kind of bird's nest is this bird's nest?"
Chong Er's voice came from the small ruined temple that had become part of the bird's nest: "Ning Aiqing, of course this is the Endless Forest. This tree is called the Giant Spirit Tree, and this bird's nest is the Golden-winged Dapeng Eagle. The bird's nest. I don't know if the golden-winged roc eagle died or no longer wants this bird's nest, so it is an ownerless bird's nest."
Golden-winged roc eagle
The name sounded familiar to Ning Tao. He thought about it carefully and suddenly remembered, isn't that a monster in "Journey to the West"
But I didn't expect that such a bird really existed in the fairy world.
The immortal fire phoenix said: "I remembered that bird with golden wings, Kun head, star eyes and leopard eyes. It is very fierce. It can be regarded as a low-level mythical beast. It can spit lightning from its mouth and is good at aerial combat. It is very powerful."
Ning Tao smiled: "Don't say this is an empty bird's nest. Even if there is a golden-winged roc eagle here, I have to bow down in front of my beloved wife."
A bright smile appeared on the face of the Immortal Fire Phoenix: "That's right."
The phoenix is the king of birds, a mythical beast on the same level as the real dragon. What bird dares to scream in front of her
Nanmen Xunxian said: "Husband, take out that map and have a look."
Ning Tao took out the animal skin map from the big sun gourd and spread it out in his hands. The three wives, including Pixiu Jinzang, all came over to take a look.
However, the scale of the map on the animal skin was unknown, and it was impossible to tell where the legendary remains of the great beast tribe were from the forest in front of them.
Ning Tao asked again: "Chong Er, are you sure you are near the big beast tribe?"
Chong Er's voice came from somewhere: "This... legendary place has a lot of uncertainties. Moreover, this Endless Forest is many times larger than the Mortal Immortal Land, so I'm not sure whether this place is there." It’s near the remains of the Beast Tribe. But Ning Aiqing, please go out and look for it, because you may not be able to find it.”
Ning Tao said: "This is the only way."
Tang Zixian said: "We have also left the body. The four of us, husband and wife, are looking for a direction. This can also expand the scope of our search."
Ning Tao looked at Nanmen Xunxian: "Xunxian, are you okay?"
Among the three wives, Nanmen Xunxian was the weakest and couldn't even fight. He always felt uneasy when her soul was out of body in a place like this.
Nanmen Xunxian could see that Ning Tao was caring about her, and felt warm in his heart. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Husband, please don't underestimate me. Although I can't fight, there is no problem with my soul leaving the body. If I encounter any danger, I will escape immediately. It will be safe here with Jinzo and Chongji guarding me."
Ning Tao said: "I'm still worried. Let's go back to the temple and then the soul can leave the body."
In fact, he has long been able to "do two things". Even if his soul is out of body, he can still protect his three wives, but his combat power is only half weaker. And his soul can return to the body in an instant and return to its peak state, but even so, he is still worried, so he asked his three wives to enter the temple with him to let the soul out of the body.
This is the Everfree Forest after all. I don’t know if there are any powerful mythical beasts lurking around here, so it’s better to be careful.
After entering the temple, Ning Tao simply closed the door and separated from his three wives.
He chose the north.
Tang Zixian chose the West.
Nanmen Xunxian chose the south.
The Immortal Fire Phoenix chose the East.
The family of four sat down cross-legged on the floor in front of the Sansheng Cauldron, and then the soul left the body, left the temple, and flew in different directions.
Ning Tao went all the way north.
The night wind blew, and the forest stretched in all directions. The mountains undulated, and the forests and peaks seemed to have no end. Even if his spirit keeps flying like this, it will not reach the end in a thousand or ten thousand years.
The Everfree Forest is really a strange place. Even an immortal like him feels very small here.
For some reason, he thought of Earth.
Human beings on the earth are killing each other for resources. Those so-called elites who lead mankind only have immediate interests in their eyes, and they will do anything for the interests. But if humans were moved into this endless forest, it would be like moving billions of ants into an endless forest. There are resources everywhere. Who would kill each other for resources
Then, he thought of Wu, the "ten thousand" above the sacred mountain.
This endless forest is so vast. I don’t know how many creatures live and thrive in this forest. I don’t know how many and powerful energies are contained in this forest. Can the “ten thousand” of the sacred mountain really dominate all things?
He didn't believe it.
A thousand miles in the blink of an eye.
Yes, Qianli!
Initially, when his Nascent Soul left his body, his range of activities was only eight kilometers in radius. Now that he has become an immortal, his Nascent Soul can reach thousands of miles away in an instant!
Moreover, his soul can continue to fly forward.
This range of movement is terrifying!
In fact, one is a baby and the other is a god. This difference already explains the problem.
Suddenly, a lake surrounded by mountains came into Ning Tao's sight. He stopped flying and hovered over the valley.
This lake is not normal.
The night wind was blowing, but there was not even a single ripple in the lake, as if it was a stagnant lake.
The lake surface is filled with aura, but also faintly glowing with black energy.
If he saw such a lake in Nanwu Swamp, Ning Tao would definitely think that there was a monster in the lake. But this is the Endless Forest, this is the world of spiritual beasts, and the black energy hidden in the spiritual energy is not demonic energy, but an unprecedented energy dispersion phenomenon.
Is there some kind of spiritual beast or mythical beast hiding in this lake
Ning Tao was a little curious, but he quickly gave up. He saw so many strange and weird spiritual beasts along the way, and some even discovered his soul, but he couldn't catch up with him. It's not surprising that there are some water-based spiritual beasts or divine beasts hidden in this lake, and the purpose of his trip is to find the remains of the great beast tribe, not any spiritual beasts.
Ning Tao's eyes quickly swept across the lakeside area, looking for the existence of ruins that were not suspected. The Eye of the Soul is the Eye of Heaven, and he was surprised again when he saw it. The lakeside is densely wooded and rich in aquatic plants, but there is not even a single insect.
The things in this lake are definitely not kind!
"Forget it, look elsewhere." Ning Tao was about to leave.
Suddenly, there were waves on the lake.
"Wow wow wow..." A cry similar to that of a baby came from underwater.
Ning Tao's eyes returned to the lake.
Wow!
A monster with a human face and a fish body suddenly shot up from the water and bit Ning Tao's soul.
Mermaid
This was Ning Tao's sudden thought, but it was so wrong.
This mermaid was nothing like the mermaid in his impression. The man was handsome and handsome, and the woman was beautiful and sexy. This mermaid has a head as big as a car, an ugly baby face, and a body like a whale. It weighs at least hundreds of tons and suddenly shoots up at a speed as fast as a meteor!
Ning Tao's soul flashed and he avoided the mermaid's attack.
The mermaid's attack failed and her body fell.
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and a huge water column suddenly rose on the calm lake, and the glass layers were pushed in all directions.
"A guy who overestimates his own abilities actually wants to eat my soul?" Ning Tao was disdainful.
Wow!
The mermaid charged again, opened a bloody mouth and bit Ning Tao's soul.
It actually has two brushes. The most basic thing is that it can see the soul of an immortal like Ning Tao and dare to speak.
Ning Tao's soul dodged to the side again, easily dodging the mermaid's attack.
But this time the mermaid actually didn't fall. The fish's tail swung and suddenly swam out of the void. In an instant, it was in front of Ning Tao's soul, and he opened his mouth to bite!
So cunning!
It could do this just now, but it deliberately fell into the water to give people the illusion that it couldn't fly!
But how can it catch up with the speed of Yuanshen.
Ning Tao's soul instantly rose and he avoided the mermaid's attack again.
This time the mermaid didn't fall into the lake, but it didn't attack Ning Tao's soul again. It seemed to understand the difference between them.
Just when Ning Tao was wondering whether to leave here and search forward, or return to the body, the mermaid suddenly spoke.
