The Dark Forest was large, covering an area with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Ling Qingyan did not say that they could not fly over.
But Lu Li did not have to ask. He could tell that there was a strong Inhibition Formation above the forest.
He put Ling Qingyan into the Wicked Bead and released some Worms of the Void to cover an area with a radius of 30 feet around him.
Though he was not afraid of the snakes, he had to be careful. With the Worms of the Void around him, at least the snakes could detect him.
The Worms of the Void could attack the snakes as well. Were the snakes stronger than supreme warriors in the Divinity?
"Let's go!"
Outside the forest, Lu Li used psychic power to check. Apart from trees, there were only trees. He did not even see a single snake.
He nodded to himself. The snakes were strange.
"Go!"
He waved his hand and controlled some of the void worms to fly in. What happened next surprised him — the snake inside was not disturbed, and the tree inside did not move either.
"This is strange!"
Lu Li thought for a while and stepped into the forest. He did not move after he stepped in. He observed the surroundings carefully.
It was quiet. The trees seemed normal. There was nothing strange about them and they would not move.
"Buzzing!"
Lu Li took out his saber and hacked at a tree nearby. There was a glare but the tree did not tremble.
Lu Li checked and found that there was an Inhibition Formation in the tree, and it was a complicated one.
"Blood Fairy!"
Lu Li shouted. A blood-red vine came out from under his feet. The vine reached into the ground and pierced into the tree nearby.
Lu Li waited quietly. After the time for one incense stick to burn, Blood Fairy said, "Master, the Inhibition Formation here is special. It can enhance the defense of the trees.
Also, the Inhibition Formations in the trees are connected. In other words, each tree has a small Inhibition Formation that forms a larger formation.
If you attack one tree, you will be attacking all the trees. Therefore, the trees here are not easy to destroy. "
"This formation is interesting!"
Lu Li nodded. This method of setting up formations was worth learning.
Many small formations were built and then the small formations were connected. When a small formation was attacked, the force would spread out and the entire formation would be affected. In this way, it would be more difficult to crack.
"Can this formation be broken?"
Lu Li asked straightforwardly. If the Formation could be cracked, he could destroy it along the way and cross the forest easily.
"It's a little difficult. I need some time!"
Blood Fairy gave an ambiguous answer. After a moment of silence, she said, "Master, you can try to activate the formation. That way, I can sense the structure of the formation patterns inside. It will be easier to break the formation."
"Alright!"
Lu Li nodded and walked in. He walked slowly and at the same time, he used psychic power to check for snakes nearby.
These snakes really knew how to hide. Lu Li scanned the area several times but didn't find a single snake.
Ten steps, twenty steps, fifty steps!
After Lu Li took 50 steps, he heard a noise coming from his left.
Lu Li looked over and saw a branch of a tree suddenly moved, shooting towards Lu Li at a horrifying speed.
"Snake!"
Only now did Lu Li realize that the branch was actually a snake.
When the snake was motionless, Lu Li could not sense any sign of life. In appearance, the snake was no different from a branch.
Only when the snake moved would it show signs of life and change its appearance to that of a snake.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"
When the first snake moved, it was as if a hornet's nest had been poked. Many branches turned into snakes and swarmed toward Lu Li.
The snakes were small and fast. Some of them turned into shadows. In an instant, Lu Li felt at least hundreds of snakes were coming toward him.
"Buzzing ~"
Many Worms of the Void danced around and attacked the snakes.
Since Lu Li was surrounded by Worms of the Void, the snakes had to go through the Worms of the Void in order to get close to Lu Li.
The Worms of the Void were horrifying. Many snakes were bitten to death by the Worms of the Void.
Many snakes dashed over, only to turn into a mist of blood on the way. The Worms of the Void had gnawed away their bodies.
But some of the snakes turned into shadows. In this case, the Worms of the Void could not attack them.
Lu Li could not attack them even if he wanted to. The snakes pierced into his body.
Lu Li was not worried. The dragon soul in his soul was strong. The snakes should be able to stop it.
That being said, Lu Li closed his eyes and tried to sense the situation in his soul.
"Buzzing ~"
As he expected, when the snakes reached his soul, the dragon soul glowed and wandered around.
As Lu Li had expected, all the snakes were devoured by the dragon soul. They were not on the same level. The snakes were devoured without any ability to fight back.
"Okay!"
Lu Li was relieved. The snakes posed no threat to him. Now, it was up to the tree.
He opened his eyes and walked forward step by step. Every few steps he took, he would startle countless snakes. Countless snakes swarmed over from all directions.
"No wonder Ling Qingyan could not stand it!"
Lu Li nodded. Average supreme warriors in the Divinity would not be able to stand it.
Lu Li himself did not have to do anything. The snakes with physical bodies would all be killed by the Worms of the Void. The snakes that turned into shadows to attack his soul would be killed by the dragon soul.
"I can replenish the dragon soul's energy."
A moment later, Lu Li was satisfied.
When the dragon soul devoured more energy, it would turn into a special kind of energy that could increase his divine energy and soul.
"Swish, swish ~"
After Lu Li moved forward for more than 300 feet, a tree finally moved.
The branches of the tree had turned into vines, and they were coming at Lu Li like pythons. Lu Li dodged to the side.
However, a tree on the other side moved as well. Countless branches turned into vines and entangled Lu Li.
Lu Li could have stepped back. However, he remembered that there were many trees in front of him. He could not dodge. So, he stood still and let the branches come at him.
"Blood Fairy, look out!"
Lu Li said. The trees were moving, which meant that the formation was activated. This was the best time to check.
Lu Li began to wield the Frosty Edge saber. He did not intend to cut the branches. He just wanted to activate the formation in the trees so that Blood Fairy could see more clearly.
Lu Li slashed hard, but didn't break the branch. He only managed to knock it away.
He brandished his saber and deflected all the branches shooting at him from all directions.
However, no matter how fast he was, there were too many branches coming at him from all sides. Soon, he could not block them all. He was entangled by the branches and turned into a meat dumpling.
"Blood Fairy, it is up to you!"
Lu Li was confident that he could use the Ghastly Ghastly Blade to cut the branches. However, there were too many branches along the way. It would be difficult for him to move forward. Therefore, he pinned his hope on Blood Fairy.
If Blood Fairy could solve the formation, it would be easy for Lu Li to get out.
Blood Fairy did not disappoint him. After only an hour, she sent a message to him. "Master, although this formation is difficult to break, it is easy to break the binding of these branches. Give me another hour and I will be able to break it easily."
"Okay!"
Lu Li was relieved. At the same time, he was looking forward to it. Across the Dark Forest was the core area of the Ancient Demons Burial Ground. What was there?
