Fall: Rebirth

After night fell, Ye You took Takizawa to the Nether Forest.

When they finally reached the Netherwood, a bone-chilling chill hit them. The cold night wind whistled past, rustling the leaves.

The atmosphere around became more and more depressing, and there was a gloomy smell in the air.

There was no bird singing and no sign of animals in the entire forest.

In the gloomy woods, black fog filled the air, severely obstructing the vision and only allowing one to see a few feet ahead.

What’s even more creepy is that bursts of mournful sounds can be heard from the black fog from time to time, making one’s scalp tingle.

Ye You stepped onto the land carefully, observing her surroundings vigilantly. Her eyes were sharp, not missing any slight movement.

Takizawa followed closely behind, weapon tightly in his hand, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

Countless vengeful spirits are hung on every vengeful spirit tree here, their faces are distorted and their eyes reveal endless pain and resentment.

They seemed to sense the arrival of Yeyou and Takizawa, and they all made low whimpering sounds, which made people feel creepy.

As they advanced, the number of vengeful trees increased. They were densely arranged together, forming a terrifying forest.

The whimpering of the vengeful spirits became louder and louder, as if issuing a warning to Yeyou and Takizawa.

Ye You stopped and stared quietly at the resentful spirit tree in front of him, with a strong sense of mission surged in his heart.

"Takizawa, be careful." Ye You whispered, "These vengeful spirits are souls eroded by the power of darkness. They are full of anger and resentment."

"Yes." Takizawa nodded to show that he understood. He held the weapon tightly in his hand, ready to meet the upcoming challenge.

Ye You continued to walk forward, her steps light and agile, moving between the vengeful spirit trees like a ghost.

Takizawa followed closely behind, always on guard.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the branches and leaves of the vengeful spirit tree shook violently.

The whimpers of the vengeful spirits became sharp and piercing, as if they were going to tear their eardrums.

Ye You and Takizawa immediately stopped and looked around vigilantly.

"Oh no! We've been discovered." Ye You's face changed slightly and he said in a low voice.

Before he could finish his words, countless vengeful spirits emerged from all directions, making shrill screams and pouncing towards Ye You and Takizawa with their fangs and claws.

Ye You was quick-witted and quick-handed. She immediately used her divine power. A deep purple light shot out from her hands, and a powerful force drove back the evil spirits one after another.

Takizawa brandished his weapon and engaged in close combat with the evil spirits. His swordsmanship was sharp, and each of his swords could accurately hit the vital points of the evil spirits, preventing them from getting close to him.

However, the number of vengeful spirits was too great; they kept coming in an endless stream, seemingly endless.

"How can there be so many?" Takizawa frowned slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

Ye You looked calm and silent. She stared at the vengeful spirits in front of her, knowing in her heart that if they could not find a way to control the vengeful spirits as soon as possible, they would be overwhelmed by them sooner or later.

At this moment, Ye You suddenly smiled and said softly: "I am only controlling these evil spirits temporarily, but this is only a stopgap measure. Before long, they will revive again."

"Your Majesty, this place is so weird! It's as eerie and scary as Youdu. If we hadn't adapted to this atmosphere long ago, we would have been scared to death." Takizawa frowned, looked at Ye You, and said softly.

Ye You nodded, indicating her agreement with Takizawa. She glanced around, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

“You’re right. If other gods come here, they may be scared and it will be even more difficult to suppress the evil forces here. Too many strange things have happened recently. Leaving the Nether Forest behind may become a big trouble. Who knows when it will pose a threat to the God Realm.” Ye You’s voice was cold and firm, as if he had made some decision.

Long Ze heard the deep meaning in Ye You's words, and he asked excitedly: "God, do you mean to destroy this place?"

Ye You was about to answer when suddenly, a vengeful spirit tree rushed out from the black fog.

This vengeful tree was unusually large, with twisted branches covered with hideous and distorted faces. They opened their mouths and made sharp and piercing cries, which were creepy.

Upon seeing this, Takizawa immediately transformed into a huge black dragon, spewing blazing flames from his mouth. The flames instantly devoured the Wraith Tree and burned it to ashes.

As the ghost tree disappeared, a burning smell filled the air.

Ye You stood there quietly, her cold eyes fixed on everything around her without making a sound. Her beautiful face revealed an extraordinary calmness and composure, as if nothing in the world could shake her inner peace.

However, this is just the beginning.

Suddenly, more vengeful spirit trees emerged from the black fog. Like enraged beasts, they pounced towards Ye You frantically.

These vengeful spirit trees carry strong resentment, filling the entire space with a depressing atmosphere.

Ye You reacted quickly, and her light figure flashed, cleverly avoiding the attack of the vengeful spirit tree. She frowned and thought to herself: "How come so many of these vengeful spirit trees suddenly appeared?"

At the same time, a long black whip appeared in her hand. The whip drew a graceful arc in the air, and with an easy swing, she cut several vengeful spirit trees in half.

Takizawa was not to be outdone. He circled in the air, spewing flames from his mouth, burning the vengeful trees into ashes.

His power was so strong that every attack could cause great damage to the vengeful spirit trees. He swung his dragon tail violently, knocking a group of vengeful spirit trees away with amazing force.

However, there were too many vengeful spirit trees, and they kept coming in an endless stream, and it seemed that they could never be completely eliminated.

"This is not a solution! We must solve it as soon as possible." Ye You frowned and whispered. She knew how difficult these vengeful trees were to deal with, and she had to find the treasure as soon as possible and destroy the forest.

At this moment, Takizawa's dragon head nodded slightly to show his agreement. He leaped into the air, took a deep breath, and used all his strength to spit out a powerful dragon breath.

The dragon's breath swept past like a raging torrent, instantly destroying a large area of ​​vengeful spirit trees.

At this time, the three disciples of the God of Fire were sitting leisurely outside the Nether Forest, sipping tea and chatting.

Suddenly, Huan Yang seemed to sense some unusual movement in the Nether Forest. He turned his head and looked into the depths of the Nether Forest in confusion, while muttering, "Did you hear any strange noises?"

"It seems... that the sound comes from the woods." Min Ye glanced at the Nether Forest, but there was a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

Huanyang and Yanlan looked at each other in shock. Without saying anything, they stood up and walked towards the woods.

At this time, Long Ze, who had just destroyed a large number of vengeful spirit trees, changed back to human form and came to Ye You. His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed a trace of solemnity. He said: "God, there are too many vengeful spirit trees. If this continues, our physical strength will be exhausted."

A trace of worry flashed in Ye You's eyes. She frowned slightly and said, "Yes, we must find a way to find the seal, otherwise it will be difficult for us to solve this problem."

"Yeah." Takizawa nodded, his eyes revealing firm determination.

A trace of worry flashed across Ye You's eyes, and she whispered, "The appearance of these vengeful spirit trees is not accidental."

There was a hint of doubt in Takizawa's eyes, and he asked, "Did the God think of something?"

At this moment, the forest was so quiet that it made people feel a little uneasy.

Ye You's eyes swept around like cold arrows, and an indescribable strange feeling surged in her heart. She frowned slightly and thought to herself: This place seems peaceful, but it seems to hide unknown dangers. Could it be related to the devil again?

Seeing Ye You's solemn expression, Takizawa couldn't help but ask curiously: "Your Majesty, why do you look so serious?" His voice broke the silence, with a hint of doubt and concern.

Ye You did not answer immediately, but continued to scan the surroundings with cold eyes. Her eyes revealed a kind of vigilance, as if she was trying to find the source of the strange feeling.

Finally, she spoke slowly, her tone cold and firm: "We must find the depths of the Nether Forest as soon as possible, take out the treasure, and then destroy this forest. Otherwise, even if the gods on duty here use special wood to burn these resentful spirit trees every day, it will be useless in the end."

Upon hearing this, Takizawa's face darkened and he nodded vigorously to show his agreement.
