Everyone seemed to be infected by Chu Bubai's calmness and nodded. They were no longer as panicked as before.
"Then what do we do next?" Guo Dengtao asked.
"Naturally, we will continue forward. We have already reached this step, and we can only watch helplessly as the Nascent Ginseng is right in front of us. We can't let such a small obstacle go to waste." Chu Bubai said lightly.
Wang Feng couldn't help but nervously ask, "But the fog is so thick, and there are no small paths. We have no idea what's going on ahead."
Guo Dengtao and the others nodded in agreement. Lin Yi had also tried earlier and found that this place was very strange. Not only was the fog too thick, but he couldn't see much with his eyes. Even with his divine sense, he couldn't sense what was going on ahead.
Under normal circumstances, although they couldn't see it with their eyes, they could still sense it with their divine sense. If even divine sense was blocked, then this place was definitely strange.
Perhaps there was some formation, or perhaps this place was naturally like this. For example, there was a magnetic field that could also affect divine sense. No matter which one it was, it meant that this place was no small matter and couldn't be entered easily.
"Although we can't completely see what's going on ahead, after walking for so long, we're already familiar with this place, so there's no need to worry too much." Chu Bubai comforted everyone: "For us, the biggest threat in Lufeng Forest is spirit beasts. However, this place is a graveyard for spirit beasts. Other than spirit beasts that are about to die, other spirit beasts won't come here. Otherwise, we would have encountered them long ago. What do you guys think?"
"Brother Chu's words make sense." Guo Dengtao and the others nodded. Other than those strange and disgusting things, there were no living spirit beasts. Furthermore, there was no miasma, so it naturally wasn't a threat to them.
Along the way, everyone's trust in Chu Bubai had gradually accumulated to the point of blindness. His words could be said to be unquestionable, and his words were indeed reasonable and convincing.
"So, even if we can't see what's going on ahead, we don't need to scare ourselves. As long as we're careful, we won't fail at the last moment." Chu Bubai continued to explain with a calm expression: "I've encountered this situation in other places before. I also couldn't see the road clearly, and I couldn't even sense it with my divine sense. However, in the end, there wasn't any danger. It was just like a ghost hitting a wall. "
"Ghost Hits Wall?" Everyone could not help but look at each other. Even Lin Yi was slightly taken aback. This saying was widely spread among the people and was often mentioned in the cultivation world. In the end, it could be concluded that it was nothing more than a natural maze or a formation.
But no matter which one it was, There wasn't any actual danger. It was just that they couldn't find the exit and were running around in circles. It was purely a waste of time.
So when they heard Chu Bubai's words, everyone immediately felt relieved.
However … Although they all breathed a sigh of relief, no one dared to walk forward rashly. They all looked at each other, and no one was willing to take the lead. Even if there was nothing to be afraid of, what if this wasn't? What if there was some kind of death trap?
There was a momentary stalemate. Everyone's eyes finally fell on Chu Bubai. Their meaning was obvious. Chu Bubai was the one leading the way. At this juncture, naturally, Chu Bubai should be the one taking the lead. After all, he was the leader.
However, for some reason, Chu Bubai did not continue to take the lead this time. He looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "It's just a ghost hitting a wall. There's nothing to be afraid of. Now, everyone will line up in order. Taozi will take the lead in front, and I will hold the rear. What do you think?"
"This …" Guo Dengtao suddenly hesitated. He had no objection to others not taking the lead, but he was unlucky. He could not help but twitch his mouth: "Brother Chu, it's not that I don't want to, but I don't know the way. I've never been to this place, and I'm not familiar with your family's map. Even if I follow the map, it's easy to get lost. Not to mention, I can't even see the road in front …"
"That's okay. I will hold the rear and give you directions at any time. That way, there won't be any mistakes." Chu Bubai said with certainty.
"Then … Okay …" At this point, Guo Dengtao could not refuse anymore, so he had to bite the bullet and take the lead.
Everyone lined up in a straight line, with Guo Dengtao in the lead and Wang Feng following closely behind, just a step behind Guo Dengtao. Behind them were Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao, and finally Feng Hongyu and Chu Bubai, who was responsible for holding the rear.
Guo Dengtao was very careful, every step he took trembling with fear, as if he was walking on thin ice for fear of falling into some fatal trap. However, Chu Bubai would give out orders every few steps. Just like that, everyone walked through the fog for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but they didn't encounter any accidents or dangers.
Lin Yi turned his head and looked at the front and back. Although they were only a step apart, in this fog, even if it was just a small distance, the figures had become a little blurred. It could be seen how terrible the visibility was.
However, Lin Yi was more puzzled at the moment, and it was because of Chu Bubai's deliberate arrangement.
Everyone knew that in this situation, it was clearly the most appropriate for him to be the first. Not only was it because he was the most familiar with the map and it was not easy to get lost, but it was also because he was a master in the late Gold Core stage, and he was the strongest among them.
Indeed, a strong person was needed to hold the rear, but in terms of the degree of danger and challenge, it was obvious that the person walking in the front was higher. If there was any danger, he would be able to respond faster.
With the shrewdness shown by Chu Bubai, it was impossible for him not to understand this kind of thing, but he still had to stay at the back. Lin Yi thought about it and there were only two possibilities.
Either he felt that this place was dangerous, so he let Guo Dengtao and a few others walk in front as cannon fodder. Even if there was an accident, he could escape in time. Or, he had ulterior motives and had other intentions, but it was unknown what kind of bad intentions it was.
The moonlight was hazy, and the visibility was only a step away from the heavy fog. There was also an unknown existence that was looming in the fog. It was like a ghost fire, but it did not feel like a ghost fire, but more like a ghost shadow. It formed an extremely strange and evil picture.
Everyone did not dare to breathe. Listening to the command of Chu Bubai, one by one, they lined up in the fog.
If it was an ordinary person, seeing the ghost shadows flashing around them from time to time, their heart would probably jump out. Fortunately, everyone was a master in the Gold Core stage, and their minds were far more tenacious than ordinary people. Some nervousness and fear were inevitable, but it did not affect their actions. Floating Astronomy.
