In the dense mountain forest, the originally green leaves have now all turned yellow, and even the branches and trunks are dry and break easily.
Li Ming threw away the wrist-thick stick in his hand and replaced it with a dry, longer and thicker branch found on the roadside. These past few days in the forest, they had always needed a wooden stick. It served not only as a cane and firewood, but also as their only weapon. Unfortunately, wooden sticks were not durable and needed to be replaced frequently.
Li Hua used the stick in his hand to push away the weeds in front of him while staring at Lai Fu who was leading the way. He could clearly feel that Lai Fu was deliberately avoiding something along the way. Lai Fu would deliberately turn a corner on a flat road that could be passed straight through. Could it be that...
Li Hua deliberately followed Lai Fu's route and walked in the plum blossom footprints left by Lai Fu. In comparison, Li Ming walked much more casually.
When Lai Fu turned a corner on the straight road again, Li Hua grabbed Li Ming, who was about to take a step forward subconsciously, and told him, "Follow Lai Fu's footsteps."
Li Ming was puzzled:? ?
Li Hua covered his face. His cousin looked smart, but he was really stupid.
Li Hua pointed at Li Ming's trouser legs and said, "Lift up your trousers and take a look at your legs."
Li Ming looked puzzled, but still lifted up his trouser leg, only to see another red mark on his calf, similar to a burn. It was a mark that appeared today.
"Follow Lai Fu's footsteps, it can avoid dark matter."
Li Ming: ???!!!!
"It can see?! Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier? Are you still my brother?" Li Ming roared. What kind of brother would let his younger brother step into a trap even though he knew it was a trap?!
Li Hua rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "If I told you that a dog has been practicing for more than ten years and is more powerful than you, and has already reached the state of enlightenment, would you believe it?"
Li Ming was frustrated. Okay, I guess he really wouldn't believe it.
"Hurry up and catch up!"
The two of them stopped talking and continued to follow Lai Fu.
Li Hua remembered Xiao Bai saying that Lai Fu was particularly good at finding things. He felt that Xiao Bai's words must have a deeper meaning. If it were just ordinary things, Xiao Bai would not have deliberately emphasized this statement. That is to say, Lai Fu was particularly good at finding things with spiritual energy. If they were now in the family, he would not worry at all. It was just dark matter contamination. The family would definitely have a way to deal with it. Even if they couldn't remove it, suppressing it with spiritual items would be no problem.
Li Hua took out the Ling'an compass and looked at the black and white needles on it. They had followed the black needle to get here, but ended up entering a dark area full of dark matter. It seemed that the black needle on the compass pointed to the place where dark matter was found. In this way, the white needle pointed to the place where spiritual energy was found. Unfortunately, since entering this place, the compass needle has not moved again.
Li Hua sighed and looked at the withered and yellow trees all over the mountains. Things with spiritual energy usually have obvious abnormalities, and the plants will grow more luxuriantly. At a glance, it is clear that there is no spiritual energy nearby.
Li Hua was thinking while looking at Lai Fu who was sniffing around in front of him. Now he could only put his hope on this dog.
Lai Fu, the dog, led the way, sniffing around. The place was filled with the scent of dark matter, with no trace of spiritual energy at all. However, his owner had asked him to lead the two people to find something containing spiritual energy, so he could only do his best. Suddenly, Lai Fu smelled a familiar, fresh scent amidst the dark matter. The scent seemed to be constantly moving. Lai Fu sniffed hard and immediately ran in the direction of the scent.
Seeing this, Li Hua, who was following behind Lai Fu, hurriedly pulled Li Ming to catch up.
At this time, not far from Li Hua and the others, a woman wearing a dark green cheongsam and a bun was fighting with several mutant monkeys with two daggers. This woman was Li Ya, who had come to look for Li Ming and the others.
Li Ya, the old man with the long beard, and the others followed the movement of the vines and drove to the edge of the dark domain barrier. They soon spotted Li Ming and his group's car parked on the roadside. The old man with the long beard quickly discovered the existence of the dark domain. This old man was the foreign aid invited by Li Zhen, the head of the Li family. In addition, Li Ya also brought many young men from the clan.
The old man with a long beard was probably in his sixties, with a Taoist bun and a Taoist robe. His secular surname was Wang, and Li Ya and others called him Taoist Master Wang. He was Li Zhen's fellow disciple. Li Zhen converted to Taoism very early and was a lay disciple of Taoism. This time, he anticipated that the matter might be related to dark matter, so he specially asked his fellow disciples to come and help find the person.
Taoist Wang noticed something was wrong when the vines vibrated, but because the distance was too far, he didn't dare to confirm it until he got closer. He then confirmed his guess along the traces of the road going up the mountain, and then focused his spiritual power on his eyes. He immediately saw the huge barrier in front of him, which was rolling with gray mist.
Taoist Wang was so frightened that he staggered and immediately ordered everyone to retreat away from this place. Then he told Li Ya and others that they might have encountered the worst situation. Li Ming and others had entered the dark area.
Dark Domain, the Li family is no stranger to this term. Because it is too terrifying, Clan Leader Li had specially emphasized this thing when he was training his disciples before. They still remember Clan Leader Li's look of fear and dread when he talked about the Dark Domain, and they also deeply remember Clan Leader Li's comment that "Once the Dark Domain appears, nothing can survive."
The dark domain will pollute all living beings within it, and even humans will become crazy and inhumane polluting species.
"Contaminated Seeds" is the name given by the aristocratic families to humans infected by dark matter. They are insanely bloodthirsty and devoid of humanity. They are called "seeds" because once a human is infected by dark matter, if not promptly treated or suppressed, they will become the seeds of the Dark Core. As the dark matter contamination deepens, the power of the contaminated seed grows stronger, and the Dark Core, the source of power within their bodies, grows larger and larger, just like a seed.
