On Hou Qin's side, they also lost two martial artists. Another few people were seriously injured. With Yun Sheng around, those people's lives were not in danger.
"What species is this? I don't think I've seen it before." Madam Chi Bi examined the Purple Feather Owl King. Not only on the Boundless Continent, but even in the Ba Huang Tribe, she had never seen such a magical beast.
"It should be a mutated magical beast." Abandon carefully extracted the poison from the owl king's body. He was worried that they would encounter more Purple Feather Owl Kings later on in the journey. For safety reasons, he planned to find the antidote with Yun Sheng as soon as possible.
With the antidote, they wouldn't have to be afraid of zombies later on.
"Taiyuan ruins are indeed a little strange." Yun Sheng recalled the Taiyuan eucalyptus at the foot of the mountain and this terrifying Purple Feather Owl.
Taiyuan Mountain hid two types of mutated creatures that had never appeared on the mainland. This wasn't a good thing.
"Ah!" Madam Chi Bi screamed.
The Purple Feather Owl King exploded right in front of her eyes. Purple blood sprayed all over her face. It was smelly and fishy, scaring her so much that she turned pale.
"Tsk, this thing can actually self-destruct. We didn't find the soul stone." Lan was a little disappointed.
"It's okay. I've already extracted the poison and a portion of its blood. It should be able to be used for treatment." Abandon had already obtained a portion of the poison and blood.
After checking, he found that it was similar to the first type of snake venom that Mentor She Huang had found.
"There's an exit in front." Ye Beiming and a few warriors from the mainland's elite camp walked back.
After being trapped in this mountain path for three days and three nights, they finally found the exit.
It seemed that the reason why they couldn't find the exit earlier was because of this Purple Feather Owl.
"Then let's get out quickly. If we stay in this damned place any longer, we'll puke." Yun Sheng and the others followed the group and walked forward.
After the journey to the fork, the number of people in their group increased to sixteen.
While Yun Sheng and the others were trapped in the fork, the situation of the other forces who had entered the different forks was not worse than Yun Sheng and the others.
Although they didn't encounter any zombies, they did encounter magical beasts of the four major attributes. The magical beasts' magic was very strange. After a bloody battle and losing nearly half of their members, the members of the major forces finally managed to escape from their respective mountain paths.
"Damn it, my clothes are ruined." Cheng Bai took a deep breath after walking out of the fork in the road.
Cheng Bai had never been in such a sorry state in his entire life.
He had always fancied himself as a romantic, and had the image of a young master dressed in plain clothes. But this time, when he came out, his hair was burnt, his clothes were black, and even the bone fan in his hand had a big hole in it.
Zhou State and the Hunter's Guild didn't have much luck. They encountered a fire-type Commander-level magical beast, the Bramble Firebird.
The flames spat out by this kind of bird could even melt purple gold ore.
Although there were a few mages in the team, they didn't help them at all. They caused the deaths of several people in the Wuxuan Everlasting Hall and one person in the Hunter's Guild.
Because of this, Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao had some opinions about the mages.
Along the way, they didn't say a word.
"It's good enough that we're alive. I think the other forces aren't much better than us." Bu Jiuxiao's situation was worse than Cheng Bai's.
At the last moment, he killed the Flaming Bird with his own strength.
Although he successfully killed the Flaming Firebird, Bu Jiuxiao's arm was also burned by the fire and couldn't be used for a while.
His left arm was already wrapped in a thick bandage and couldn't be used for the time being.
"Sigh, I hope Beiming and the others are fine. Isn't that Beiming and the others?" Cheng Bai was still worried about the situation on Ye Beiming's side.
As he spoke, he saw Ye Beiming and the others walking out of the forest.
At the same time, Tian Yiyu, Zhou Qingchuan, Huo Yu, and the others also walked out.
The few teams actually arrived at about the same time.
Even Li Shao came out with several of Tang Yuan's mages.
Everyone's situation wasn't good. There were fewer people, and some people in the team were injured.
However, the few of them noticed that the fork in the road earlier had disappeared. They all walked out of the forest in different directions.
"Bai, Jiuxiao, why are you guys like this?" Seeing his good friend in a sorry state and injured state, Ye Beiming couldn't help but be shocked.
"Wow, you guys don't look like you've lost much. Only four people are missing. We've lost seven people." Cheng Bai glanced at Ye Beiming's team. Other than a few people who were slightly injured, the others were neatly dressed and looked like they had just returned from an outing.
The other major factions also suffered losses. Heaven's Winged Jade's group lost eight people.
On Huo Yu's side, nine sprites died. Their luck was even worse. They suddenly encountered water-type magical beasts with attributes that countered each other, causing their losses to be especially heavy.
However, the one who suffered the most losses was Tang Yuan. Li Shao had not hesitated to waste time earlier and turned back to the foot of the mountain to collect wild fruits. He brought twenty people and thought that they could successfully reach the Taiyuan ruins. Who knew that they would enter a strange fork in the road?
They also encountered the Purple Feather Owl King at the fork in the road. However, compared to Yun Sheng and the others, they had no elven hellfire or Abandon, who knew how to detoxify the zombie poison. When they broke out of the encirclement, a total of 13 people died.
Li Shao only brought out seven people.
"In that case, there's clearly no fork in the road. I feel like we've stepped into a trap set by someone else." Looking at the dense forest without a single fork in the road, everyone had an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
In the past three days, this seemingly peaceful forest had devoured dozens of lives.
Who knew how many human bones were buried in the withered leaves and bushes in the forest.
"This damned Ghost Historical Site is really strange," Cheng Bai spat.
But even so, no one was willing to withdraw at this time.
They were here for the divine artifact. After climbing another 500 meters, they would be able to enter the Taiyuan ruins.
The ancient Taiyuan ruins were already clearly visible. The white buildings that looked like they were carved out of ivory were waiting for them at the top of the mountain.
The major forces decided to rest for a day before entering the Taiyuan ruins.
This time, no one planned to go first. After the strange Taiyuan eucalyptus and the bizarre appearance and disappearance of the mountain path, everyone felt that they could not act rashly.
No one knew what kind of ridiculous creatures would exist in the Taiyuan ruins.
At night, everyone camped in place to rest and set off for the ruins the next morning.
At that time, it was already the sixth day since the six major forces entered the Taiyuan ruins.
