Chapter 1073: What is that?
Feng Jiu smiled . “Since it’s for gaining experience, naturally, we will face many challenges . Otherwise, how can our potential ability be stimulated? Cultivation is a journey against nature . If you want to become stronger, your path won’t be so smooth . ”
Song Ming looked at her and his heart was moved . “In fact, in your present status, there is no need to enter such a dangerous place . After all, the risk is too great . As long as you say a word, I believe there will be many strong people to protect you . ”
She was not only an alchemist or a pill refiner but also the Ghost Doctor who possessed the medical expertise who could practically revive the dead . Such a person would be a guest of honour wherever she went . She had no need to gain experience in a place like this .
“It’s better to rely on yourself than on others . ” Feng Jiu answered with a smile . “No matter how strong others are, it’s not your own strength . It’s best when you’re strong . This way, you have enough strength to protect those that you want to protect . ”
“Protecting the person that I want to protect?” With a startled look, he whispered . “The one I want to protect is gone . Even if I get strong enough, I can’t protect her . ”
She glanced at him and knew that he was referring to his deceased mother . So, she advised him, “You are still young . You will meet someone you want to protect in the future . ”
He smiled . “Who do you call still young? Are you old already? Your statement really treats us like small kids . ”
Feng Jiu’s lips curved up and didn’t answer him back . Indeed, the combined age of her two lives was not small . Truly, she did take them as little kids .
She raised her head slightly and looked at the huge web of interlacing branches above her head . She was thinking that after looking after them for a year and finished her business here, she would go to the first-grade country to take her mother home .
As long as she brought her mother home and reunited her with her father, she could safely prepare to enter the Eight Supreme Empires and meet Mo Ze .
Could she reach the Nascent Soul level in a year’s time here? She was looking forward to that .
In the early morning, the dim sunlight was diffused in the forest . The tree spirits in the forest basked in the warm sunshine with their claws retracted and stood still like normal trees .
“Strange, why are these tree spirits so different during the daytime compared to the night?”
Ning Lang remarked at the trees whose claws were put away . Although the branches above were still interwoven to form a big net, it seemed they had no attacking power .
“Could they be doing this on purpose?”
Luo Fei glanced at them, then experimented by touching those trees . Who would have thought, those trees didn’t react at all . It was as if all they had seen before had been an illusion .
“Perhaps their habits during the day and the dark are different . ” Feng Jiu spoke thoughtfully . “It’s better to leave the forest before evening, in case the change recurs at night . ”
“Mm, let’s go!”
After extinguishing the fire and clearing away their traces, they went on, intending to leave this strange place as far as possible come the evening .
However, after walking for nearly the whole morning, they had not seen the end of the jungle . All around were trees with only branches and no leaves, as if this forest was endless . At this time, Ning Lang called out in a low voice, “Look, what is that?”
