Chapter 1284 Crossing Tribulation
When everyone came to the bamboo forest behind the village, it was only less than two hours, and the sky was still getting dark. In the gray sky, the bamboo forest seemed boundless, blown by the breeze, Make a rustling sound.
If only Lu Jingchen brought Tang Feng and Zixuan, the speed would be several times faster, but because he had to take care of other people, he slowed down his pace, but that's the case, except for these few people, the others were still exhausted Panting, even Ji Ning and Shangguan and the others with the highest cultivation levels, when they arrived at the place, their foreheads and temples were already soaked in sweat.
If they were like this, let alone thank Tiger and Li Jianming, they were so tired that they were out of breath. When Lu Jingchen slowed down, they stopped, panting heavily, wiping their sweat, Almost unsteady.
Xiaohui jumped to the front with ease, gestured with his paws, and let out a "squeak" sound towards everyone, as if pointing the direction for everyone, and everyone looked in the direction it pointed, and soon, An abnormality was found.
Just in front of it, there is indeed a large area of scorched marks, and the bamboo in that area has completely disappeared.
To say completely is because the disappearance is very thorough.
Generally speaking, when a fire is ready-made, it will leave some remnants. Even if it is a tree, it will leave a few scorched trunks and the like, and there will be some roots close to the ground, and after burning, Leaves of plant ash and the like.
But in this place, there is nothing.
Except for a black mark on the ground, indicating that there was a big fire here, there was nothing at the scene. On the ground, not to mention tree roots or unburned branches and leaves, even ashes , and none at all.
Looking at the situation, it seemed that someone had carefully cleaned it. Except for the black mark that could not be cleaned up, there was nothing else. This made everyone wonder when the fire started. .
In particular, there is no abnormal burnt smell in the air, but it is just such a day, logically speaking, this smell should not be so easily dissipated.
Tang Feng put Lin Mengjia down, and walked around the scorched area by himself, silently calculating in his heart while walking.
Although Lu Jingchen stood where he was, his gaze was somewhat astonished as he looked around.
Zixuan reached out and picked the bamboo leaf closest to the burnt area. It was the same as the one Xiaohui showed them before. There seemed to be an invisible dividing line separating the burning area from the surrounding areas. There is a clear distinction, on the branches and leaves, you can see the neat traces, the inside of the line is completely burned, and the outside of the line, there is nothing wrong with Qiu.
"It's a circle." Xue Rui observed for a while, then murmured, "The surrounding bamboo forest has not suffered any damage, but the circle in the middle is completely burned. How did this fire burn? How did you get up?"
"Skyfire." Lu Jingchen looked at it, and a faint shadow passed between his brows.
"Skyfire?" His words made the few people present all look very puzzled, and they all looked at him, "Sect Master Lu, what is Skyfire? Is it fire that fell from the sky?"
"Skyfire, is Heavenly Tribulation?" Everyone remembered what Tang Feng had said before.
Lu Jingchen nodded slowly, looked at Tang Feng, didn't say much, but waited for Tang Feng to come back.
Tang Feng has already walked around the periphery of the circle, which is the edge of the bamboo forest. The circle is not too big, with a diameter of about 30 meters. Even if Tang Feng walks slowly, it will not take long. It is also around the people who have come back.
Lu Jingchen couldn't wait to ask Tang Feng: "Mr. Tang, have you seen anything?"
Tang Feng twitched the corner of his mouth lightly, and only said four words: "Crossing the tribulation failed."
"Du Jie?" When Lu Jingchen heard these two words, his expression changed immediately.
Although he had vaguely guessed like this before, he couldn't be sure after all. Hearing Tang Feng's very sure tone, his eyes looked towards the scorched area again, but still Showing an unbelievable expression, he kept shaking his head, and said repeatedly: "How is this possible? How can there be a spiritual creature in the Transcending Tribulation Period in this place?"
When he was in the sect, Tang Feng once asked Lu Jingchen if there were any spirit beasts or monsters in the forest besides the white-fronted monkey. He said with certainty that there were none. At that time, Lu Jingchen was already a little embarrassed, but he was a little relieved that the bird was not of this kind.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for this tone to come down. In front of him, there was a scene of a failed tribulation. Here, Lu Jingchen couldn't help but make Lu Jingchen's face as ugly as possible.
Zixuan moved to Tang Feng's side, and asked him curiously, "Can you tell what it is?"
The corner of Tang Feng's mouth twitched, and he said, "There's not even a scum left, what do you think?"
The burning here is really too clean, except for the ground being completely black, there is nothing left, even with Tang Feng's ability, there is no way to find any clues in this situation.
Zixuan folded her hands on her shoulders, looked around, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that everything that happened can be connected. At that time, there was something that needed to go through the catastrophe. , just rushed into this bamboo forest, probably looking for a place or a way to avoid this catastrophe, but when he got here, he triggered the stepless seal, and then he was burned to ashes by the sky fire. Afterwards, we found out the reason for the change, and we left the village to check here, and entered the Wuji Seal that had been triggered, waited until dawn, and nothing else happened, and then returned to the village.”
Listening to Zixuan's restoration of the matter, Ji Ning and Shangguan nodded.
The two of them were the witnesses of the incident, and the process she told her was completely in line with the situation, and the time was completely right.
Xue Rui frowned, and after listening to Zixuan finished speaking, she said thoughtfully: "I have also read some books about Dujie, and they all said that Dujie was struck by lightning, but last night it was extremely difficult. Quiet, I didn't hear any thunder at all, why did I pass the tribulation so quietly? Doesn't it seem unreasonable?"
