The fairy love story between Bi Yao and Li Yuan after traveling through time

Chapter 148: Dangerous Journey Begins Again, the Brave Are Fearless

The cheers gradually died down, and Bi Yao and Li Yuan withdrew from the crowd.

They smiled at each other, with determination glittering in each other's eyes.

Although the Demon Lord was eliminated, both of them knew in their hearts that the tranquility in the world of immortals was only the calm before the storm.

That inconspicuous stone tablet, like an ancient prophecy, foreshadows that greater challenges are about to come.

"Yao'er, it's time for us to set off." Li Yuan's voice was low and powerful. He held Bi Yao's hand tightly, as if he wanted to pass all his strength to her.

Bi Yao nodded slightly, her eyes swept over everyone, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the leaders of the major sects stepped forward one after another and presented their most treasured magic weapons and elixirs.

The leader of Kunlun Sect presented a cold and sharp Bingpo Sword, which was said to be able to cut off all evil in the world; the leader of Emei Sect presented a Tianyuan Pill that exuded rich spiritual energy, which could improve cultivation and consolidate one's realm after taking it.

Other sects also presented their treasures, which were so numerous and dazzling that it was enough to make people dazzled.

Bi Yao and Li Yuan thanked them one by one and put these precious resources into their pockets.

These magic weapons and elixirs will undoubtedly enable them to face various challenges more calmly in the upcoming journey.

Night falls and the stars are shining.

Bi Yao and Li Yuan stood on the top of the mountain, gazing into the distance.

In the distance, a forest shrouded in mist lies quietly like a sleeping beast.

There is the legendary misty forest full of mysterious power, and it is also the destination of their journey.

"Are you ready?" Li Yuan turned to look at Bi Yao, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

Bi Yao took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Of course."

Li Yuan grabbed Bi Yao's hand, and the two of them flashed, transforming into two streaks of light and disappearing into the night...

Only the breeze from the top of the mountain is left, blowing gently.

Misty Forest, truly worthy of its name.

As soon as they stepped in, they were engulfed by thick white fog, and they couldn't see their hands in front of them.

The outlines of the trees are looming in the fog, twisted into strange shapes, like ghosts with bared fangs and claws.

The air was filled with a damp and rotten smell that was sickening.

Li Yuan's talkative nature seemed to be suppressed by this strange atmosphere. He fell silent for a rare time, just holding Bi Yao's hand tightly and looking around vigilantly.

When they stopped in the small town before, they heard many horror legends about the Misty Forest.

Some people say that there is an evil spirit living deep in the forest who can control people's minds. Anyone who trespasses will be bewitched and eventually become the walking corpse; others say that the forest itself is a huge illusion and anyone who enters will be trapped in it and can never escape.

These legends, now immersive, have added a touch of terrifying realism.

"Yao'er, be careful." Li Yuan whispered, with a barely perceptible hint of nervousness in his tone.

Bi Yao nodded slightly. Although she appeared calm on the surface, she felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.

This foggy forest is even stranger than she had imagined.

After walking for a while, they found that all sense of direction was gone.

No matter which direction you go, you will eventually return to where you started.

Although the surroundings were quiet and silent, it felt as if countless pairs of eyes were secretly watching them, which was creepy.

"We seem to be lost." Li Yuan frowned, his voice seemed a little erratic in the thick fog.

Bi Yao looked around. The thick fog obscured everything, and even the trees that were close at hand were unclear.

She tried to explore with her spiritual sense, but found that her spiritual sense was also blocked by the strange fog and could not extend too far.

"There's something wrong with this fog." Bi Yao said in a deep voice. She took out a night-shining pearl from her storage bag. The bright light dispelled the fog in a small area around her, but it was only a small area. The area farther away was still white, like a chaotic world.

Li Yuan also tried to use his spiritual power to dispel the fog, but the effect was minimal.

This fog does not seem to be ordinary fog, but is formed by some special energy, which cannot be dispelled by ordinary means.

"It seems that we have to find another way." Bi Yao said, her eyes fell on the surrounding trees, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"Li Yuan, look..."

Bi Yao's eyes swept over the surrounding trees. Although these trees had different shapes, they had one thing in common: their branches and leaves were slightly tilted in the same direction.

"Li Yuan, look at these trees. Their branches and leaves are leaning over there. This means..." Bi Yao paused, a glint of excitement flashing in her eyes. "This means there might be wind or sunshine over there!"

Li Yuan looked in the direction Bi Yao pointed, and sure enough, the branches and leaves of those trees were all tilted slightly in the same direction.

Although the fog blocked the sunlight, they might be able to find a way out based on the direction the trees grew.

"Yao'er, you are so smart!" Li Yuan couldn't help but admire, his eyes full of admiration for Bi Yao.

The two of them moved forward along the direction where the trees were leaning. Sure enough, not long after, the fog around them gradually thinned out and their vision gradually widened.

Just when they thought they had escaped the troubles of the fog, something strange happened!

"Whoosh whoosh—"

Several black shadows rushed out from the fog at an astonishing speed, like ghosts, and rushed straight towards the two of them!

"Be careful!" Li Yuan shouted, and the spiritual power in his hands surged, and a golden light curtain instantly enveloped the two of them.

"Bang bang bang!"

The black shadow hit the light curtain with a dull sound. The light curtain trembled violently, but remained firm.

With the help of the light of the night pearl, Bi Yao saw the true faces of these black shadows: they were hunched, with hideous faces, and their eyes emitted a dark green light, like evil spirits from hell!

"What are these things?" Li Yuan asked while maintaining the light curtain.

"I don't know, but they are very fast and don't seem to be afraid of ordinary attacks." Bi Yao said in a deep voice. A dagger appeared in her hand, and a cold light flashed on the dagger.

She noticed that although the attacks of these ghostly creatures were fierce, they seemed to deliberately avoid the surrounding trees.

With each attack, they cleverly maneuvered around the trees instead of crashing into them.

"Could it be that their weakness is..." Bi Yao's heart moved, and a bold idea came to his mind.

She suddenly threw the dagger in her hand at one of the ghostly creatures. The dagger did not attack the ghostly creature directly, but shot towards the big tree behind it!

"boom!"

The dagger was deeply embedded in the tree trunk, and the whole tree shook violently, and the surrounding fog rolled and surged.

The ghostly creature let out a shrill scream, and its body quickly dissipated into the air as if it was burned by flames!

"It worked!" A hint of joy flashed in Bi Yao's eyes. She turned to Li Yuan and said, "Li Yuan, attack the trees!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan immediately understood what Bi Yao meant. Spiritual power surged in his hands, and golden blades of light shot out, accurately hitting the surrounding trees.

"Boom boom boom!"

The trees fell one after another, and the surrounding fog dissipated. The ghostly creatures let out shrill screams and turned into ashes one after another.

The crisis was over and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before they could catch their breath, a door emitting a strange light appeared in front of them.

"What is that?" Li Yuan pointed at the door with a hint of doubt in his tone.

Bi Yao shook her head. She didn't know what was hidden behind the door.

But she had a premonition that there must be a greater danger hidden behind that door...

"Let's go." Bi Yao took a deep breath and clenched the night pearl in his hand.

Li Yuan nodded and followed Bi Yao closely...

They walked step by step towards the door that was emitting a strange light.
