Chapter 1047: Leafless Forest (2/2)
At this point, Mo Wuji finally understood what Kun Yun meant by asking him to take care of himself first. With the activation of his detoxification channel, the corrosive energy was swept away, never to be seen again.
Following which, he also took out a flying magic treasure and caught up to Kun Yun.
”Not bad, you blocked off the dao traces of the Minor Curse Arts so quickly. I originally planned to help you out if you didn't manage to handle it.” Kun Yun happily said as he saw Mo Wuji catch up.
No reply came from Mo Wuji. He knew that if he couldn't shake off the Curse Arts, there was absolutely no chance that Kun Yun would turn around to help him. At most, Kun Yun would take his body and refine it to see what sort of secrets it held.
…
Although the Leafless Forest wasn't close to the God Domain Nest's god city, with Mo Wuji and Kun Yun's speed, they only took half a day to arrive there.
As its name suggested, an endless sea of trees came into sight, with the only thing that seemed out of place being the trees having no leaves at all. Not only that, every single tree had a sort of defeated feel to it.
What shocked Mo Wuji was that once he entered the Leafless Forest, the corrosive energy of the Curse Arts could not be felt anymore.
However, this didn't cheer him up a single bit. On the way, he had seen countless people that were killed by the Curse Arts. That sort of apocalyptic scene still lingered in his mind.
”Aren't you curious why the Curse Arts has no effect on the Leafless Forest?” Kun Yun prompted.
Mo Wuji nodded, ”Yes, the Leafless Forest is also at the border of the God Domain Nest, so why can't the Curse Arts reach this place?”
Kun Yun replied, ”How could a mere ant's Curse Arts disturb a location that houses primal energy? There are countless primal spiritual eyes in the depths of the Leafless Forest, and if any curse energy comes close to the forest, it will be destroyed by the primal energy's laws. We just have to find a primal spiritual eye here and go into closed door cultivation.”
Mo Wuji probed further, ”What you're saying is that as long as you enter the Leafless Forest, you can avoid the Curse Arts?”
”Of course.” Kun Yun replied without hesitation. ”Even if you have been hit by the Curse Arts, as long as it isn't very serious, your condition will improve after entering the Leafless Forest. For those serious cases, if you can find a primal spiritual eye, they can still recover. You don't have to tell others about this because this information has already been spread out a long time ago.”
Mo Wuji scanned inwards with his spiritual will, and indeed he saw many cultivators who were hit by the Curse Arts rushing towards the Leafless Forest.
”Let's go to the deeper parts of the forest. Even if there are primal spiritual eyes in the outer circle, they would have been drained completely by others already.” With a flash, Kun Yun charged into the depths of the forest.
Suddenly, Mo Wuji thought of the broken planet that he found during the fight for resources in Nirvana Learning Academy, and he asked, ”Kun Yun, back then I went to a planet with broken laws, and there was also some hidden primal god spiritual veins in there. I even cultivation in there for a long period of time, so were those primal god spiritual veins the same as this Leafless Forest?”
”You really found a planet with primal god spiritual veins? Quick, tell me where this planet is.” Kun Yun immediately became excited upon hearing Mo Wuji's words.
Looking at Kun Yun's expression, Mo Wuji knew that the planet with broken laws was not simple.
”That planet has a very big secret. As long as you tell me its location, we'll split the benefits two ways. If you go by yourself, I guarantee that even if you spend a billion years searching, you won't be able to find the good stuff.” How could Kun Yun not understand what Mo Wuji was thinking of, hence he quickly explained himself.
In response, Mo Wuji said, ”Let me tell you honestly, I don't know where that planet is either. I only stumbled upon it by chance once.”
Even though he said that, Mo Wuji was determined to ask Cang Zhengxing where the broken planet was the next time they met. Then, he would go inside to take a look. He didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to find whatever good stuff that Kun Yun could find.
Kun Yun was a little skeptical, and he began to think about how to convince Mo Wuji to bring him along on the search for the broken planet.
With that, the two of them rushed through the Leafless Forest depressingly before dense primal god spiritual energy hit them in the face. This made Kun Yun stop in his tracks as he spoke excitedly while looking in the distance, ”Someone actually found the highest grade of primal spiritual eyes, let's quickly go over…”
After finishing his sentence, he couldn't even bother to care about Mo Wuji, and he turned around and charged towards the origin of the primal god spiritual energy.
Since Mo Wuji desperately needed to raise his cultivation level, naturally, he wasn't far behind. With his Wind Escape Technique, he wasn't any slower than Kun Yun.
An incense's time later, both of them stopped, looking at the scene before them in shock.
A spiritual eye at least a few kilometres in radius appeared in front of them, and the primal god spiritual energy emanating above it was frighteningly dense. It was like a hot spring had sprung up in midair.
While Mo Wuji was some distance away from the primal spiritual eye, the clear Laws of Heaven and Earth could be felt.
However, there were simply too many people around. The primal spiritual eye continued to spew primal god spiritual energy but no one went down to cultivate. There were at least a few thousand people surrounding it and more were on their way.
