I am practicing in a weird world
Page 165
The further we go, the quieter it becomes.
There used to be the chirping of insects and the singing of birds, but now even that has disappeared.
The surroundings were extremely quiet; even the sound of the wind was blocked by the dense branches and leaves of the trees, and could only emit a faint sound.
Xiao Yi said, "Something is wrong. It's too quiet."
"Something is wrong, but we can't find anything wrong." said No. 1.
Number Five said, "I haven't detected any danger."
"I didn't detect any danger either." said No. 8.
The two mercenaries who specialized in reconnaissance did not find any danger, but the forest seemed extremely silent. This strong contrast created a pressure that weighed heavily on everyone's heart, making everyone nervous.
The forest has birds and insects, and these two creatures are the noisiest.
The birds' singing never stops, and the insects' wings' flapping never stops. Once you enter the forest, these two sounds are often heard.
In this forest, they had just seen a monster with three heads, but now, everyone had advanced a very long distance, using fire to clear the way along the way, making a lot of noise, but they had not even seen a monster with three heads.
The only thing we experienced along the way was silence, and the deeper we went into the forest, the quieter it became.
This situation seems extremely strange.
What force makes this huge forest so quiet?
Everyone's mind is thinking about this question.
"Could it be that we have entered the territory of dangerous monsters?" asked Number One.
The more ferocious the monster, the larger its territory.
It is said that the territory of an ordinary adult tiger is as large as several hills. They mark their territory by leaving strong-smelling body fluids, and all living things that enter the tiger's territory will become their prey.
A tiger's territory is as big as several hills. Monsters more powerful than tigers will only have larger territories, not smaller ones.
Generally speaking, creatures with a keen sense of danger will not enter the territory of a powerful monster, which will cause the monster's territory to become quiet.
"That's unlikely. Even in a tiger's territory, there are still birds in the trees and bugs in the grass."
Xiao Yi shook his head, disagreeing with Number One's guess.
Number Nine interjected, "I think the lack of any living creatures here is due to this forest. Just now, we discovered that within this forest, the boundaries between life blur, and different creatures merge together. If weeds touch your skin, over time, they'll grow together. I think this environment isn't suitable for life, which is why it seems so quiet."
"You are not right. The black bear monster can survive in this forest. It has no clothes, but it does not grow with the weeds." Xiao Yi said.
Number Nine explained, "It's a matter of degree. The deeper you go into the forest, the larger the trees become. This suggests that the deeper you go into the forest, the stronger the strange forces become, and the more blurred the boundaries of life become. The black bear monster can survive outside, but not necessarily here."
At this time, Number Ten said, "I agree with Number Nine. I can clearly feel that the life force here is much stronger than outside. If the density of the life energy outside is like the atmosphere, then the density of the life energy here is like water flow. Monsters really may not be able to survive here."
Xiao Yi sensed the energy around him. He could clearly feel that the life energy here was very strong.
Here, whether it is trees or weeds, everything exudes rich life energy, which is the basis of numbers nine and ten.
"There is a situation."
At this time, No. 5, who was exploring the way ahead, raised his hand and asked the team to stop.
Suddenly, the entire team stopped and everyone's expressions were tense.
Number Five whispered, "I sense there are more than twenty enclosed spaces six hundred meters ahead. These spaces are about the same size as wild beasts. Some are as big as black bears, while others are as big as wild dogs. I believe these enclosed spaces are wild beasts."
"Is it a beast like the black bear with only three heads just now?" asked Luo Wa.
"The life energy here is suppressing the power of my Enlightenment Principle. I can't sense it clearly, and I can't clearly perceive the outline. I don't know if it's a monster like the black bear. But the strange thing is that these enclosed spaces are all motionless."
An enclosed space that is as big as a wild beast, but it is motionless. What could it be?
Volume 1: Chapter 277 Seeds
Everyone is thinking about this question.
"Investigation." Luo Wa ordered.
After receiving the order, No. 5 and No. 8 immediately explored forward cautiously.
After they advanced to a certain area, they stopped and Number Five stretched out his finger and drew a line in the air.
A purple light emanated from his fingertips, which was the light of the power of the Principle of Enlightenment. His movements were slow, as if it was difficult for him to complete the action.
As he moved, a tiny crack appeared in the space.
Through the crack on this side, you can easily see the scenery on the other side.
That was the scene several hundred meters later.
The first thing you see is a bunch of monsters, monsters with plants growing all over their bodies. These monsters are covered with extremely long hair and look like balls of hair. They are big and small, the big ones are as big as black bears, and the small ones are only the size of domestic dogs.
These monsters are exactly the enclosed space that No. 5 and No. 8 just sensed.
Saplings grew out of the monster's body. They were very small saplings, only as long as fingers, with lush leaves. They looked like weeds, and they were growing slowly.
At this moment, all these monsters fell to the ground, motionless, all dead, only the saplings on their bodies were still green.
Seeing this scene, both No. 5 and No. 8 looked puzzled.
Number Five closed the space crack and began to report the information he had seen to Luo Wa.
"Go and take a look." Luo Wa said.
After saying that, he led the team forward.
Soon, everyone arrived at the place where the monster died.
"Medic, check the cause of death of these monsters." Luo Wa said.
If the cause of the monster's death is found out, it will be beneficial to the team. It will let the team know what dangers there are, and they can be alert in advance and discuss countermeasures.
Number Nine walked forward, arriving in front of a monster. After carefully observing it for a moment, she turned to Number One and said, "Can you lend me a fire? Help me burn off all the hair on this monster."
Number One raised his hand and flicked his fingertips, and suddenly, a spark fell on the monster.
The moment the sparks touched the monster's hair, there was a "Bear!" sound, and flames rose violently, instantly burning all the monster's hair to ashes, revealing the monster's true appearance.
It was a canine monster with sharp fangs and a strong body, and its shape was very similar to a sturdy hound.
After carefully identifying the monster's shape, No. 9 immediately recognized what kind of animal it was. It was a gray wolf, a mutated gray wolf.
She looked at the gray wolf's body, then took out a scalpel from her leg pocket.
The next moment, she used a scalpel to cut open the gray wolf's body, and suddenly, dense tree roots appeared in her eyes.
The gray wolf's body is filled with dense tree roots. These roots penetrate into every inch of the wolf's flesh and blood, and are growing using the wolf's flesh and blood as nutrients.
Seeing this scene, Number Nine's face suddenly turned pale.
Plant roots that penetrate the earth are very common, but this is the first time she has seen plant roots that penetrate into a living organism.
Not only did these plants sink their roots into the bodies of living things, they also killed an entire pack of wolves.
Among this pack of gray wolves, the largest one is as big as a bear. If it can kill such a powerful wolf pack, then it can naturally kill humans as well.
Xiao Yi squatted beside the other monster, reached out and pulled out a gray wolf hair.
Looking at the hair, Xiao Yi instantly understood why this group of gray wolves could exist in this forest.
This hair, only a very small part at the root is alive, the rest is dead, and has no life at all. It is equivalent to human clothing, isolating it from contact with plants.
At this time, Number Nine stood up and reported, "These monsters are probably mutated gray wolves, and they mainly died from plant parasites."
"What kind of plant is parasitic?" asked Luo Wa.
"I'm not sure. The trees here have mutated. They have many characteristics that are different from the trees we know. From the appearance, the tree that is parasitic on the gray wolf is very similar to the surrounding trees."
Number Nine sounded uncertain.
When everyone heard what Number Nine said, a look of horror appeared in their eyes.
They looked at the trees growing on the monster's corpse, and then looked at the surrounding trees, and immediately found that the two types of trees were really similar.
Whether it is the leaves, trunks, or the shapes of the trees, there are similarities.
"But these big trees won't move." said No. 1.
Their mercenaries walked all the way
I have walked through a lot of weeds and trees and have never seen any aggressive behavior from the trees around me.
These surrounding trees are just like ordinary trees except that they are unusually large. They don't move at all. How did they kill these mutant gray wolves and how did they grow on the bodies of these mutant gray wolves?
"I don't know. Maybe they just look similar, but I can't say for sure if they're actually the same species of tree. I don't know much about plants."
Number Nine shook his head, his face full of confusion.
She was well versed in medicine and had a good understanding of the human body, but now she was asked to study plants, which was beyond her knowledge.
"call!"
At this time, a gust of wind blew over.
Suddenly, waves of cool feeling came over, blowing away the stuffiness of the forest and bringing a touch of coolness to everyone.
what is this?
At this time, Xiao Yi discovered that his body was stained with some granular substances.
These things are very small, just slightly larger than dust, gray-black in color, and look like dust, but Xiao Yi feels the power of life from these things.
It was a power very similar to the energy within his body, and it felt like vitality was surging within it.
"what!"
Suddenly, a scream came from beside me.
Xiao Yi turned his head instantly and looked towards the source of the scream, and then horror suddenly appeared in his eyes.
He saw that those things that were not much bigger than dust actually grew roots. These roots penetrated through the pores in clothing and even penetrated people's clothes and into their skin.
This thing is a seed, a seed that can eat people.
At the moment Xiao Yi was surprised, he suddenly felt pain.
He immediately looked at himself and saw that the seeds had begun to grow roots and penetrate into his flesh.
The people next to him screamed, Xiao Yi looked up, and then at this moment, the seeds in his body began to take root and sprout.
This process is extremely short, just the time it takes to raise your head, and there is no time to react at all.
At this moment, the tragic death of those mutant gray wolves appeared in Xiao Yi's mind.
This group of gray wolves, the largest of which was as big as a bear, was able to move around in this forest. Perhaps their strength was no less than the three-headed monster they had encountered before. However, such a group of mutant creatures were completely wiped out by these tiny seeds.

Volume 1: Chapter 278 Loss
The conflicting power in his body instantly burst out from his soul and bombarded the roots that pierced his body.
As the power of discord arrived and invaded the body of the plant, the cells in the plant suddenly began to fight each other and began to destroy themselves.
However, Xiao Yi's face showed an extremely painful expression.
He felt the pain.
The plants were dying, but he felt pain, as if the plants were part of his body, just like his hands, his feet, and his body. He could clearly feel the pain in the plants.
It was a pain that originated at the cellular level. Every inch of Xiao Yi's body was covered with plants, and all the plant cells in his body were killing each other. It was a pain that spread throughout his body.
At this moment, Xiao Yi squatted on the ground in pain, grabbing the ground with his ten fingers. The ground was like tofu and was instantly grasped by him.
What's going on? I'm killing the plants that have invaded my body, killing foreign objects, so why do I feel pain?
It feels like these plants are part of my body.
Xiao Yi was confused.
He used his will to feel his entire body, and immediately felt that, on a physical level, the roots of the plants were connected to his nerves, and not only the pain, but also the sensations of itching, numbness, cold, heat, heaviness, etc. were all connected.
On a mystical and powerful level, the life force of these plants is connecting with the life force in his body and is absorbing his vitality.
These plants would absorb his life force to repair themselves.
Whether in terms of logistics or power, harming these plants is no different from harming Xiao Yi himself.
Wolves are in pain, so they are resentful, and all wolves desire destruction. I didn’t understand what this feeling was like before, but now I do.
Because pain is the door to revenge, and as long as you feel pain, you will naturally want to destroy it.
