1324 Bone Corroding Forest 10 (1/2)

In the pitch dark Bone Corroding Forest, the chill wind rustled the leaves. Dark and dank, the mud beneath their feet made it difficult to walk like they were in a swamp. To advance within that forest, they had to walk with their backs bent over to try as hard as they could to reduce the chances of contact with the low overhanging leaves and branches, to prevent themselves from getting scratched.

Although being scratched by the trees would not cause them to lose their lives now, but that severe burning pain was not something they were willing to go through.

At that moment, the youths who had always been proud of their height suddenly realized painfully what kind of pain being tall could bring to them.

Among them, only Jun Wu Xie and Little Jue were shorter in stature and most of the Bone Corroding Trees in their twisted state was just about enough for Little Jue to walk unhindered while Jun Wu Xie only needed to occasionally stoop a little when she came across a particularly low hanging branch.

But it was a complete tragedy for tall youths like Qiao Chu and the others.

The five other youths did not differ by much in their heights and when among others in the same age group, they were usually considered outstandingly suave and good looking. But here in the Bone Corroding Forest, their much envied height suddenly became the cause as the tragedy unfolded.

Immediately upon the first step into the Bone Corroding Forest, their backs had not had the chance to straighten at all!

If that was just the case, it wouldn't have been that bad, but…..

They were forced to have to see those several people who were even taller than they were, calmly moving around as they wished within the Bone Corroding Forest with their backs ramrod straight!

Like the spirit body that was Poppy…..

And the courageous and highly skilled Ye Sha and Ye Mei…..

A most prime example, Jun Wu Yao…..

Alright, for the last one, all the companions had selectively chosen to disregard to save their pride!

Poppy was a ring spirit and a ring spirit who possessed lethal poison, so the fact that the Bone Corroding Tree's poisonous sap was no different from spring water was understandable. They had even witnessed with their own eyes when a Bone Corroding Tree's vine had scratched the back of Poppy's hand, the vine had immediately turned black and shriveled up…..

That really showed them just who was more poisonous!
