Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 500 Chapter 2

Outside the Meteor Forest, there was a huge crowd of people.

At some point, this originally quiet and deserted place suddenly became extremely lively, with people coming here from time to time.

These people were all covered in dust. It was obvious that they had received the order at the last minute and rushed here in a hurry.

Their clothes were different, but they had one thing in common: each of them had a token made of black iron hanging around their waist.

The token was hard and smooth, with the Nebula Sect's logo engraved on it, which was the unique identity mark of the Nebula Sect's members.

And these people are undoubtedly members of the Nebula Sect.

Not long ago, they received an urgent message from the sect leader, informing them that the wanted man with a bounty had disappeared after coming near the Meteorite Forest.

You know, that person was originally located and marked by the sect master using a secret method, and normally he would not be able to escape the sect master's location mark.

The only possibility is that the person used the strangeness of the Meteor Forest itself to conceal the leader's mark and location.

"The Sect Master reported that the person's mark disappeared after reaching here. I think that person must have escaped into the Meteoric Forest..."

A thin man stood on tiptoe anxiously, stretching his neck, as if this would allow him to see the situation in the meteorite forest more clearly.

Although his face was full of anxiety, when his gaze finally fell on the Meteorite Forest, a deep fear could not be concealed in his eyes.

This fear is not without reason.

The strangeness of the Meteorite Forest had long been spread within the Nebula Sect. This Meteorite Forest seemed to be extremely repulsive to the people of their Nebula Sect. Anyone who stepped into it would be subjected to strange attacks.

So even though they had determined that the target was hiding in this forest, they did not dare to easily step in to search.

One of the more impatient people frowned anxiously and said, "This Meteor Forest is indeed strange, but we can't just sit there and wait, right?"

However, the other person didn't take his words seriously and even laughed out loud. With a scornful smile on his face, he taunted, "Then why don't you go in and take a look? We definitely won't steal the credit from you."

Being ridiculed like that naturally upset the impatient man, but his fear of Meteorite Forest prevented him from agreeing lightly. Although his face flushed red at the man's words, he still managed to resist the urge to rush in.

Just when the situation was getting awkward, another person stepped forward to smooth things over: "Forget it, forget it, it's not easy for anyone..."

Then, the man made a suggestion: "I think there are so many of us, why don't we spread out and surround this meteorite forest. That way, even if that person sneaks out, he will definitely not be able to escape."

This proposal seemed to be approved by everyone, and everyone nodded in agreement.

So, everyone was preparing to disperse according to the plan.

A strange fluctuation came from the meteorite forest without any warning.

This fluctuation came extremely suddenly, like the oppression before a storm is about to come.

Everyone was shocked. They looked at the Meteorite Forest in horror, not knowing what this strange fluctuation meant.

Out of instinct, they all retreated back and kept a certain distance from the Meteorite Forest, fearing that the fluctuations would bring them any danger.

"The red mist above the Meteor Forest has disappeared?!"

This exclamation was like a thunderclap out of nowhere, exploding among the crowd.

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and quickly used the Qi-gazing technique to look up at the meteorite forest.

The strange red mist that had been shrouding the meteorite forest disappeared without a trace, as if it had been wiped away by an invisible hand.

The sky that was originally covered by the red fog now reappeared before everyone's eyes, clear and bright.

The red mist above the Meteor Forest has always been the most bizarre existence in the Meteor Forest. It seems to be a natural barrier, isolating the Meteor Forest from the outside world.

And at this moment, the barrier was broken so easily, which made the people outside look at each other in confusion, not knowing what had happened.

"The red mist is gone. Could it be that the Sect Master has taken action? Then can we go in?"

Finally, someone couldn't hold back their curiosity and asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion.

Although the others were also surprised by the sudden disappearance of the red mist, they still had doubts about whether it was the Sect Master's action. After all, the Meteor Forest had existed for a long time, and the Sect Master of the Nebula Sect had never had the intention of clearing out the strangeness of the place.

Just when everyone was hesitating whether to go in and find out what was going on, suddenly, a whistling sound came from a distance.

The sound was like a strong wind passing by, or like a loud thunder, which hurt the eardrums.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. In the distance, they saw a person stepping on a bone sword made of spine, flying towards them like an immortal.

The man who came riding on the sword was extremely fast, like lightning, and was already there in the blink of an eye.

However, what was surprising was that he ignored the people around him, not even looking at them twice, and he didn't seem to be afraid of the Meteorite Forest at all.

He faced everyone's gaze and rushed into the meteorite forest without hesitation.

His figure instantly disappeared into the dense woods, leaving behind only a startled fallen leaf and the astonished gazes of the crowd.

After a long while, everyone came back to their senses and looked at each other, obviously shocked by the scene just now.

"Who is that person? How can he be so reckless? He just rushed in like that?" A newcomer who had just joined the Xingyun Sect muttered to himself in astonishment.

As soon as he finished speaking, a Nebula Sect disciple who recognized the person who had just entered the Meteoric Forest explained with a wry smile, "Others might consider this reckless, but him...doing this only shows that he has absolute confidence in his own abilities."

The newcomer was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Who is that person?"

The disciple's gaze remained fixed on the Meteoric Forest. After a long moment, he slowly spoke, "He... is the Sword Demon... Dou Ying!"

"hiss--"

The newcomer couldn't help but gasp.

Although he was just a newcomer, he was already familiar with the ranking list that the Xingyun Sect attached the most importance to.

So, when he learned that the person who rushed into the Meteorite Forest without hesitation was Dou Ying, he immediately understood that the other party's move was not reckless.

As another person said, it might be reckless for others to do this, but Dou Ying did it out of absolute confidence in his own strength.

Because, Dou Ying...

Currently ranked second in the disciple rankings!
