After hearing this, Liu Jun looked at Jiang Wuwei with a puzzled face, obviously full of curiosity about this place.
Seeing this, Jiang Wuwei smiled slightly and continued: "The special thing here is mainly because of the formation. The formation is called the 'Covering the Sky Formation', which was created by a great master in ancient times. The function of Nengbu is not only to cover the location of the fallen forest, but also to weaken the realm of practitioners who step into the forest. Generally speaking, the half-step god king realm here is only the early stage of the main god level."
< br>"Weaken the realm?" Liu Jun was stunned, and then asked doubtfully, "Then when we came in, why didn't we feel that the cultivation realm was weakened?"
Jiang Wuwei smiled and explained: " That's because after we entered the formation, I have temporarily broken the weakening effect of the formation for you. Of course, it is only temporary. After one stick of incense, your realm will be weakened. With your current main god level In terms of strength, you will be reduced to the sub-god level."
After hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but take a breath. This weakening is not just a small reduction, but a large level reduction. The key is this formation. It was so strong, but he didn't notice it. This was the most terrifying thing about this formation.
"The difficulty I'm talking about is that you need to enter the depths of the fallen forest in a weakened state to find the Golden Lotus and bring it back, so that you can resurrect your two friends," Jiang Wuwei continued.
Jiang Wuwei’s words made Liu Jun fall into deep thought. He is well aware that there are many dangers deep in the Fallen Forest. With his currently weakened strength, it will undoubtedly be a huge challenge to enter there. But he had no choice. In order to resurrect Xu Kai and Wang Xin, he had to try.
"Golden lotus, jade lotus root..." Liu Jun murmured to himself, with doubts rising in his heart. Although he is not eager to learn, he has heard that Nezha was reborn as a golden lotus and a jade lotus root. Unexpectedly, Jiang Wuwei actually knew about this.
"No, you don't need jade lotus root, and there is no jade lotus root in it. You just need to get the golden lotus." Jiang Wuwei explained.
The two soon came to a simple thatched house. At the door of the thatched house, there were more than a dozen human objects, which looked like mannequins in a shopping mall. These models have different shapes, some are holding weapons, and some are emptying their chests, which looks extremely weird.
"What are these?" Liu Jun couldn't help but ask.
“These are all people who have entered the fallen forest. They are all losers.” Jiang Wuwei said lightly, “If you can’t come out alive, you may become one of them”
< br>Liu Jun's expression changed slightly. He could feel the strong momentum of several of the mummies. Masters of this level had died here. It seemed that the depths of this fallen forest were indeed dangerous.
Jiang Wuwei waved his arm lightly, as if drawing an invisible spell in the air, and the door of the simple thatched house opened in response.
The simple and dilapidated appearance of this seemingly ordinary cabin is in sharp contrast to the vastness and complexity of the interior space. It seems to be following some ancient formation trend, and it can actually accommodate a space equivalent to the size of a football field.
Inside the space, the light is soft and mysterious, seemingly emitted naturally by the surrounding plants. Some of those strange plants stretch out their branches and leaves, like elves dancing in the night sky; some droop their flowers, as if they are silently telling ancient stories. In this small space, the breath of nature and the products of technology coexist harmoniously, forming a picture that is both fantasy and reality.
In the center of the space, several humanoid objects lay quietly, their bodies showing an unreal paleness. Although there are no heads, these bodies seem to contain endless life. The chests rise and fall slightly, as if someone is sleeping here.
Jiang Wuwei's eyes stayed on these humanoid objects for a moment, then pointed at one of them, with a hint of indifference in his tone: "Your friends can use these bodies to resurrect, they have perfect human structures, enough It carries a head made of golden lotus. As the main material, golden lotus can not only provide necessary physiological functions, but also give new life a pure soul. The key is, it can also practice cultivation and even reach the level of a half-step god king. The situation is not impossible."
Following his guidance, it seems that a faint golden light can be seen slowly rising from the chests of those humanoid objects. It is the spark of life that will soon be transformed by Jiang Wuwei's magic. Rekindled by law.
"The body has been activated. You have seven days to bring the golden lotus back. If you can't bring it back, you can't blame me," Jiang Wuwei said.
"Can't you wait until I bring back the Golden Lotus before activating it!?" Liu Jun's face darkened.
Facing Jiang Wuwei's understatement, Liu Jun couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart. He knew very well that his current situation was like a puppet being led by the nose, and this seemingly carefree old man was the mastermind behind the strings.
"Can you tell me the specific appearance of the Golden Lotus? And its approximate location?" Liu Jun tried to calm down and asked in a consultative tone.
You know, the depths of this fallen forest are huge. If you really go looking for a lotus, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Jiang Wuwei just smiled faintly, and there seemed to be an unfathomable secret hidden in that smile. "Liu Jun, I know your difficulties, but you also need to know that resurrecting the dead is against the will of heaven, so how can it be done so easily? I can remind you that the Golden Lotus is not nowhere to be found, it symbolizes With purity and tenacity, it will grow naturally in places that are not suitable for growth, and you need to go to the fallen forest to find such a place.”
Liu Jun frowned, cursing secretly in his heart that the reminder was too nonsense, the most difficult place to grow? Is it possible that a lotus flower can still grow in magma?
And seven days is too tight to find an unknown thing. Moreover, if he finds the golden lotus, he has to find a way to bring it back, and the risks along the way are even more unpredictable. "Mr. Jiang, is there any other way? I have a lot of rare treasures here, maybe you need them too?" Liu Jun tried to impress the other party, waved his hand and took out a bunch of precious artifacts, hoping that Jiang Wuwei could give some More intuitive tips.
Jiang Wuwei seemed unmoved. He gently moved the lid of the teapot. The hot water slowly flowed out and steam filled the air. "Of course there is no hint, but I really like these things. In this way, when you come out, I will tell you a secret."
The corners of Liu Jun's mouth twitched. The old man took the things and refused to give any benefits, but I had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask: "What secret?"
"If you really find the golden lotus, I will naturally tell you. I can't tell you now, but this secret can help you better use the power of the ancestral dragon in your body, at least you won't let the second form be so embarrassing again." Jiang Wuwei's eyes were deep and seemed to be hinting at something.
Hearing the words "second form", a flash of astonishment flashed in Liu Jun's eyes. Many people knew about Zulong, but not so many people knew about this second form.
Although I am curious about how much the old man knows about Zulong, what is more important now is to resurrect Xu Kai and Wang Xin.
"Okay, I promise you. But you must always keep your promise." Liu Jun turned around and left the thatched hut, heading towards the depths of the fallen forest.
Shortly after Liu Jun left, Jiang Wuwei turned his attention to that special humanoid object. This humanoid object is different from other humanoid objects. It has a head with distinct facial features, and its eyes are open at this time, and it is slowly moving its neck.
"How is it?" Jiang Wuwei asked, with a hint of expectation in his voice.
"If you are too emotional, you will not be liked by Heaven." The humanoid object said slowly, its voice was low and hoarse.
"The way of heaven is unkind, and treats all things as stupid dogs. The saints are unkind, and regard the common people as stupid dogs. It is not a bad thing to have a flesh-and-blood orderer." Jiang Wuwei replied, his eyes flashing with determination. light.
The conversation between them paused, and the atmosphere became a little quiet. The humanoid object continued to move its neck slowly, as if thinking about something. Suddenly, it said: "You have to understand that as an orderer, you can't be too emotional."
Jiang Wuwei was slightly stunned. He looked at the humanoid object, and a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes: "I understand. , However, people always have emotions, and no one can completely abandon them.”
The humanoid object was silent for a while, and then nodded slowly: "Yes, but if you participate, you must be prepared for the consequences. No matter what the consequences are, you must bear them alone."
< br>Jiang Wuwei smiled slightly and looked at the humanoid object: "Don't worry, I won't implicate anyone. Helping him is the path I chose and my way."
After Jiang Wuwei's words fell, his There was an unfathomable light in his eyes. Although his words were an understatement, the weight contained in them made the surrounding space seem to become solemn.
"Just take care of yourself." The humanoid object looked into the distance.
His eyes seemed to be able to see into the future. His evaluation of the coming Orderer was neither a complete affirmation nor a complete denial, but a complex emotion mixed with expectation and worry.
"Future Orderer, your personality is too variable." The whisper of the humanoid object seemed to be speaking to the air, and it seemed to be asking a hidden listener. The character of the orderer may play a key role in maintaining and changing the future order.
At this moment, Liu Jun has stepped into the depths of the fallen forest. The name itself, Fallen Forest, is full of mystery and terror. In the forest, there are towering ancient trees and shrouded in mist, and the laws here appear particularly twisted. Danger and opportunity coexist. This is the real core of the Trial Place. Countless strong people once tempered themselves here, hoping to transcend, but most people fell here.
Not long after Liu Jun entered the forest, he encountered a huge wild boar. This wild boar is huge, standing like a hill, with red eyes that seem to burn with fire. The hot air sprayed from its nostrils shook the surrounding air like a steam locomotive. The wild boar exuded a strong ferocious aura, and even a strong man like Liu Jun couldn't help but feel a bit of pressure.
In the past, such a wild boar was just a delicious delicacy to Liu Jun, and he could easily put it into the storage space. But today is different from the past. After being affected by the formation, Liu Jun's strength was weakened to the sub-god level. This means that he no longer has an absolute advantage over these beasts, but needs to re-examine the balance of power between himself and these natural creatures.
Evenly matched, perhaps this is the most realistic portrayal of Liu Jun now. He can no longer easily crush his opponents with strength. Every battle requires him to use skills, courage and wisdom to win. Such changes are undoubtedly a new challenge for Liu Jun. (End of chapter)
