Chapter 1259 Experimental
"The Black Tree Forest does not refer to a forest, but to all the races living in the forest. Most of them are monsters and beasts that rely on turbid breath to survive. There are even some special humans who do not rely on the amount of spiritual energy. It’s about absorbing the power of turbid breath!”
Zhou Ran read word for word, and he was amazed by the history of the Black Tree Forest.
Since the world of immortality is composed of spiritual energy and turbid breath, the two forces, one white and one black, can naturally support completely different creatures.
There are some monsters that cannot grow with spiritual energy, but can thrive in turbid breath. There are even some humans with special physiques who use turbid breath as their own nutrients.
The Black Tree Forest is composed of black trees. The forest is filled with a large amount of turbid breath. Creatures that rely on turbid breath to live all live in the Black Tree Forest.
All the creatures living in the forest are collectively called the Black Tree Clan by the humans in the Immortal Realm. Originally, humans and the Black Tree Clan had a harmonious relationship, and they shared their needs.
However, as time went by, the relationship between humans and the Black Tree Tribe gradually came to an end. Human beings did not like the monster-like Black Tree Tribe, so they launched a massive attack.
Just like the battle between humans and dragons, humans finally won, the Black Tree clan was completely wiped out, and even the Black Tree forest was burned to the ground and disappeared.
"Human cultivators were not originally afraid of the turbid breath, but after the Black Tree Tribe's entire army was annihilated, the turbid breath invaded the bodies of the powerful immortals and devoured their souls. Only the souls of living people can heal. In this way This phenomenon is called the Curse of the Black Tree Clan!”
Zhou Ran read out the key content in the document, and he suddenly felt sad.
It turns out that from the beginning, the turbid breath did not cause harm to the powerful immortals. It only started after the destruction of the Black Tree Clan.
However, Zhou Ran didn't quite believe in the curse. It was probably the Black Tree Clan who had done something to cause this phenomenon.
Turbid breath not only harms the powerful immortals, but also causes horrific phenomena like black storms, and all of this is proof of the Black Tree Tribe's own existence.
Zhou Ran was very interested in the history of the Black Tree Clan, so he continued reading. What happened next made him even more unbelievable.
After the Black Tree Clan was exterminated, in order to inherit the Black Tree Clan's will, a leader would be born in the Immortal World every once in a while, and this leader would be called the Black Emperor.
"Is this how the Black Emperor came?"
Zhou Ran was stunned.
The Black Emperor beside Mrs. Qu came from this.
As for the next successor Heishu chose, he was himself.
"What kind of leader is he? Isn't he just a container of turbid breath? More importantly, the current Black Emperor has become a minion of the temple. It is impossible to speak for the Black Tree Tribe!"
Zhou Ran smiled bitterly, realizing that the Black Emperor beside Mrs. Qu was not the first Black Emperor, but the Black Emperor several generations later.
Why does the Black Emperor work for the Temple? Has the Temple done anything to the Black Tree Tribe?
Zhou Ran was confused. There were only so many documents in front of him, and he had no way of knowing more.
Looking at the documents I looked through, there were very few books left, and the few books that remained seemed to record the culture of the Dragon Clan and had nothing to do with history.
"Is that enough? It's so ticklish!"
Zhou Ran sighed and said that although he had obtained a lot of information here, he lacked the most important information, which was how to get rid of the control of the turbid breath and no longer become a container.
Just as he was at a loss, Zhou Ran's vision suddenly went dark.
My head was so dizzy that I fell asleep unconsciously.
When Zhou Ran opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the cave at Linchang Peak, but in another place.
It was dark here, and the air was filled with pungent turbidity.
The surrounding trees are all black, the trunks are black, and even the leaves and fruits on the trees are black.
"Is this the Black Tree Forest?"
Zhou Ran guessed where he was. There was no doubt that this place was the Black Tree Forest.
But Zhou Ran had no idea why he came here.
Just as he was at a loss, Zhou Ran suddenly heard a human voice.
Zhou Ran followed the sound of people and saw a man and a woman. He quickly hid.
But the next second, Zhou Ran realized something was wrong. His body actually passed through the black tree, as light as a ghost.
When the man and woman walked over, they completely ignored Zhou Ran.
"Is this in a dream? Or is someone deliberately letting me see this?"
Zhou Ran muttered in his heart that since the man and woman couldn't find him at all, he simply followed them and listened to what they said.
"What batch is this? Why is there no one left alive?"
"The curse of the turbid breath cannot be stopped. No matter how many more experimental products are added, it will not help. He will still die."
"But the Black Emperor will only be born in the Black Tree Forest. I don't believe that the Black Tree Tribe has even given up hope."
"If this is the case, I hope we can find survivors in the next batch of experiments!"
"You're right, only by controlling the turbid breath can you control everything in the immortal world!"
The conversation between the two reached Zhou Ran's ears impartially.
Zhou Ran discovered that the man was just a follower, and the real person in power should be the woman. Zhou Ran looked at the woman carefully and discovered something surprising.
This woman is almost the exact same mold as Mrs. Qu, but she is younger.
If I guessed correctly, this woman should be Madam Qu when she was young.
"How long ago did this happen? Is this really the Black Tree Forest? Wasn't the Black Tree Forest destroyed? Why does it still exist? Also, what is Madam Qu's purpose?"
Zhou Ran kept asking himself, but he couldn't find the answer. The only clue was to follow Madam Qu and the man.
The two came to the other side of the Black Tree Forest, and the scene in front of them stunned Zhou Ran.
There were corpses everywhere, and the corpses were piled up into a small mountain.
Madam Qu looked at so many corpses without any pity.
"So many people died again. It seems that this experiment is not good. It can't last for a few days! All these corpses should be dealt with. It would be bad if they turned into monsters!"
Madam Qu said coldly, and the man beside her nodded immediately.
"Madam, I will do as you say."
"Okay!" Madam Qu looked unhappy and said, "But this time, the experiment may fail. We can only take a long-term view!"
Madam Qu and her follower were about to leave the Black Tree Forest, but suddenly heard a strange sound, which turned out to be the breathing sound among the corpses.
