The pitch-black mountain range, the strange White Bone Tree, and their own corpses hanging on the tree!
If ordinary people saw this scene, they would go crazy or even think that they were dreaming.
Even a professional exorcist would feel very uncomfortable at this moment.
Haig even suspected that if they didn't have the support of someone, the terrifying curse would have broken out already.
"Sir, we've counted. There are 20 corpses hanging on the tree … They're all our people. Besides me, the gardener, and you, everyone else's corpses are on the tree."
Hawkeye's pitch-black eyes looked like they were about to drip ink. A white dot sparkled in the middle as he said quickly.
"If it were before, I would try to take this strange item back. But now … we have to go around it … Its name is' White Bone Wailing. 'It was just a bone branch. I didn't know it would grow so big after it went out of control …"
Haig sighed. "As for the rule of killing … it's touching! Of course, that was before! "
"Do nothing? Why don't we try to take it in? We have experience. "
Black Hand's two palms changed. The red one became blood-red while the white one had a black hole as if a tongue was licking around greedily.
"Black Hand, don't forget our mission."
Haig frowned. "We can't waste time and energy on unrelated things … Moreover, it could be a trap. There's no time curse!"
Perhaps they could save most people's lives if they killed the White Bone Tree here.
But Haig made his decision after thinking for a while.
He chose to avoid and sacrifice himself even if the price was terrifying.
"Go around it and continue the search."
Since they were afraid of being separated, the exorcists stayed close to each other even though they were scattered.
"Keep going."
Haig touched an item in front of his chest and made up his mind.
"Then, I'll lead the way."
Black Hand grinned ferociously and stood in the front. The team plunged into the pitch-black forest and kept climbing.
Gradually, Haig felt strange.
He took one step forward but he felt like he was moving backward.
The void around him seemed to be broken into pieces. Any small movement would cause a huge change in direction and distance.
If you moved backward, you might be moving forward. If you turned left, you might be moving right.
It was also possible that he had only taken one step, but he had crossed a long distance, or he had walked a long distance, only to find himself walking in circles.
"The surrounding space is different, Gardener!"
Haig ordered immediately.
In such a situation, it would be safer for the King of Mysteries, who specialized in Dimensional Space, to take action.
The gardener nodded in silence. A handful of seeds were scattered around. The vines danced and produced beautiful flowers.
A layer of illusory space appeared, seemingly resisting the surrounding shattered space.
The gardener's expression suddenly became strained, and the area of protection continued to shrink. "I may not be able to hold on for much longer …"
This was under the condition that she had Fang Xian's support. Otherwise, she might not even be able to open the space.
"Go!"
Haig made up his mind and continued to ascend.
"A Specter Spirit has appeared up ahead!"
Black Hand's voice rang out. He saw that in front of him, there was a woman who only had half a body left. She was using her hands to crawl on the ground and get closer.
"Banish her!"
Haig calculated the distance and knew that it was impossible for his side to escape.
Black Hand stretched out his right hand. This hand of his was also obtained from the Specter Spirit. At this moment, it stretched forward beyond imagination, like a blood-red tentacle. At the top of each tentacle was a weathered head with a twisted expression and open mouth.
From the pitch-black holes, it seemed that something terrible was about to overflow.
If it was in the outside world, the curse carried by each of their heads could kill an ordinary exorcist!
But at this moment, those heads all shut their mouths.
Correspondingly, the crawling speed of the half-body woman became much slower.
"Can I only suppress it?"
Black Hand was a little anxious and vigilant.
He looked around and confirmed that the Giant Bone Tree was not there. His left hand instantly disappeared.
The next moment, a palm with a black hole appeared behind the woman's head. A tongue darted out, rolled her up, and swallowed her into the black hole.
"It worked."
"I am indeed the special one. I am the King of Mysteries."
"I will not die here."
Black Hand said to himself in his heart.
The next moment, he looked at his left hand that had returned.
In the black hole, the tongue seemed to have eaten too much and spat out a piece of … white bone?
A certain feeling immediately made Blackhand think of the Giant Bone Tree.
"No!"
His face twisted and he wanted to throw the bone away. But it was too late.
Boom!
The ground shook. Suddenly, layers of soil broke like porcelain, exposing the pure white ground.
No, it was a giant bone!
"We …"
The gardener screamed in fear. "We have been walking on the Giant Bone Tree!"
"What?"
Haig and Hawkeye didn't care that the talisman didn't follow the logic of space anymore. Instead, they thought of a more terrifying piece of information.
The Giant Bone Tree's killing rule was contact!
So … were they the ones who had touched it?
The next moment, Haig only had time to grab the gardener and Hawkeye next to him. In his chest, a faint layer of light emitted.
Everyone felt that they had lost the ground under their feet. They kept falling …
Hawkeye felt the thick darkness sweeping over.
All the strange abilities in his body were suppressed in an instant.
When he thought he was going to die, a palm reached over and a dim light spread.
Thud!
He fell heavily on the ground. Haig and the gardener were next to him.
Except for the three of them, everyone else was gone.
No, they were right in front of them, on a Giant Bone Tree. However, they had all become corpses.
Black Hand was also hanging there. He had lost both of his palms.
The King of Strange looked pale. Livor mortis appeared on his body.
"Time Curse. Is it a predestined death?"
The gardener answered in a bitter voice.
Haig kept silent. Suddenly, he took out something from his chest and threw it on the ground. "Tell me … how to find its body. Now!"
It was a brown animal skin with messy ink marks on its smooth surface.
The gardener and Hawkeye looked at Haig.
"This is a top-notch mysterious item that I possess. It can provide unimaginable information support … Previously, it was this item that told me that I should look for Isaros. There was a way to solve this problem there … It was also this item that thought that I should listen to that existence's orders and enter this mountain range …
Haig's voice was cold. "But … I think I was tricked."
