Start a mysterious island

The vast and boundless spiritual world.

The huge sun hangs high in the sky, pouring brilliant sunlight on the earth.

Lin Li's figure appeared out of thin air, and the sunlight fell on his body, instantly feeling very hot.

"Why is the sunlight emitted by the sun in the spiritual world so fierce today?"

As soon as the voice fell, the scene in front of him made Lin Li stunned instantly.

The surroundings were a scorched earth, devastated, and lifeless.

"Isn't this the misty jungle? How did it become like this now?"

Lin Li's face was full of shock. He definitely didn't remember the place he left at that time.

The misty jungle was full of vitality, with towering trees growing everywhere.

And the lifeless scorched earth in front of him was a world of difference.

"Did the arched stone door have a problem and sent me to somewhere else?"

Lin Li was very confused. He didn't think that the lifeless scorched earth in front of him was the misty jungle.

Then his feet stomped on the ground, and his body instantly rose from the ground and flew high into the sky.

In a few seconds, Lin Li, who had risen quickly, stood hundreds of meters above the ground.

Standing high and seeing far, Lin Li looked around at this moment, and was shocked and opened his mouth.

As far as the eye could see, it was all charred land, without any signs of life.

"That mountain... looks familiar."

Lin Li saw a small hill in front of the left. The shape of the hill was quite special, and it looked like a buffalo lying on the ground.

He had encountered a small hill of this shape when he was looking for prey in the misty jungle before.

Now seeing this hill, the memory immediately emerged in his mind.

Just now, he didn't believe that the scorched earth in front of him was the misty jungle, but now he had to believe it.

"What happened in the past few days when I was away that turned the misty jungle into this?"

Lin Li was shocked. After just a few days, the vibrant misty jungle turned into a scorched earth. Anyone would be shocked.

"Huh..."

The breeze blew, and Lin Li's clothes were gently swayed by the wind.

He quickly calmed down and looked around again.

There are many powerful beasts living in the dangerous misty forest. Last time, Lin Li was besieged by several third-level beasts and was forced to leave.

Now the misty forest has become so desolate, the weaker beasts are likely to be wiped out, and those third-level beasts may survive with their own strong strength.

Lin Li thought about looking for a surviving third-level beast and asking for information from the other party.

…………

Time passed, and half an hour passed.

The vast charred land was very quiet, without any signs of life.

Lin Li flew for so long, not to mention finding a third-level beast, he didn't even see a little green.

"What's going on?"

"I was thinking about coming to the misty forest this time to seek revenge on those third-level beasts.

"Now it has become a scorched earth, and there is not a single living creature to be seen, and it is even more impossible to seek revenge on those beasts. "

Lin Li had been searching for so long but had not found anything, and he felt a little depressed.

Before, he was besieged by those third-level monsters, and he had to flee.

Now that his cultivation has broken through and his strength has greatly increased, it is time to take revenge, but his enemies died first.

"Alas."

"Forget it, I haven't found it after searching for so long, I'd better leave here!"

Lin Li glanced at the huge sun moving slowly in the sky and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to look for third-level monsters.

I haven't been back to Dongwu City for a long time. I wonder how the situation is at home?

Lin Li used the sun in the sky to identify the direction and determine the location of Dongwu City, and then he flew away quickly.

The vibrant misty jungle turned into scorched earth, and the area was so large that it was jaw-dropping.

Lin Li flew quickly for half an hour before he saw green in front of him.

These plants do not belong to the misty jungle. The moment he saw these green plants, Lin Li knew that he had come to the outermost edge of the original misty jungle.

"Huh? "

There are some figures on the edge of the scorched earth.

Lin Li saw someone on the ground, and immediately thought of asking for information.

So he quickly lowered the flight altitude and began to land not far from the other party.

A group of people carefully observed the surroundings, and suddenly saw a small black dot appear in the distant sky, and immediately became alert.

When everyone saw clearly that the newcomer was not a strange beast, they were slightly relieved, but their vigilance did not relax.

After all, the place they are in now is very dangerous. If the newcomer has ill intentions, a battle is inevitable.

Lin Li landed on the ground, and there was a grassland in front of him. In this place full of vitality, his mood became better involuntarily.

"..." A group of people held weapons and looked at Lin Li in silence, and the vigilance in their eyes became stronger and stronger.

Lin Li did not approach rashly, but stood there and greeted them with a smile.

"Hello."

"Hello." A middle-aged man with a scar on his face responded.

"I want to ask you something."

"What is it? "

"I passed by here and found that the misty jungle had turned into a scorched earth. I don't know why it became like this. Do you know the reason?" Lin Li asked concisely without beating around the bush.

"..." The middle-aged man with a scar on his face heard this and looked at Lin Li in silence. Seeing that the other party did not seem to be asking questions knowingly, he answered.

"We don't know much. I heard from someone who knows the situation that the incident happened about three days ago.

Somehow, a huge fire suddenly fell from the sky in this place, turning the misty jungle into a sea of ​​fire..." The middle-aged man with a scar on his face told what he knew.

Lin Li chatted with the other party for a while, then thanked him and left.

The group looked at Lin Li flying away, and someone suddenly said.

"This person seems to have flown out from the depths of the misty jungle. "

Everyone looked at each other. They had not noticed this just now, but after hearing this, they immediately gave up the idea of ​​exploring the misty jungle.

Because of an unknown fire, the misty jungle was turned into scorched earth, and the strange beasts living in it disappeared.

Many people wanted to explore the ruins to see if they could find a loophole.

The current exploration risk is definitely different from before, but suddenly encountering a strong man like Lin Li made these people sober up again.

If they enter the ruins at this moment and meet a strong man like Lin Li, if the other party is full of malice, then they will definitely die.

…………

Under the blue sky, Lin Li flew quickly against the wind.

Through the stories of the passers-by just now, he knew the reason why the misty jungle was turned into scorched earth.

The fire destroyed the misty jungle, and it was in its There are many powerful beasts in the forest.

Lin Li thought it was incredible, the misty jungle was the home of those beasts.

If a fire broke out and it was difficult to put out, those powerful beasts would not sit idly by.

Once they united, it would not be difficult to put out a fire with the strength of those beasts.

However, the reality did not happen as Lin Li thought. The fire destroyed the misty jungle without any scruples, and those powerful beasts disappeared.

The vibrant misty jungle turned into a ruin. From then on, this place that many people regarded as a dangerous place would become history.

After a few decades, no one might know that this scorched earth was once a vibrant jungle.

"Anything can happen in this vast spiritual world, and the fire that destroyed the misty jungle is not simple.

I need to be more cautious in the future. I must not get carried away just because I have broken through to the middle of the third stage and my strength has greatly increased..."

Lin Li sighed in his heart because of the destruction of the misty jungle, and then he warned himself who was a little inflated.

…………

Flying quickly to Dongwu City, after about an hour, a vast plain appeared in front of him.

There is a huge city on this plain, with an extremely majestic momentum.

Lin Li smiled when he saw the city in the distance.

After many days away, he finally came back.

In order not to attract attention, Lin Li did not land at the city gate. Instead, they chose to land in a forest several kilometers away from the city gate.

"Huh..."

A gust of wind blew, and the surrounding trees shook violently.

The birds that were chirping on the branches had to close their mouths and hold on to the branches under their feet because the wind blew the trees.

Lin Li walked out of the woods quickly. When he walked out of the woods, he saw a straight dirt road at a glance.

He was very familiar with this road. When he first came to Dongwu City, he took this road.

The road surface was compacted, so there would be no problems whether people walked on it or vehicles ran on it.

"Go. "

Lin Li was walking on the dirt road when a loud noise suddenly sounded behind him.

He stopped after hearing the sound and turned his head to look into the distance.

He saw a dozen soldiers in black armor riding maroon mounts.

These mounts look similar to horses, with a single horn on their foreheads, some scales on their cheeks, and very strong limbs.

When Lin Li was strolling in the city before, he passed by a shop selling mounts.

At that time, the shop mainly promoted this kind of mount. The shop owner introduced that this kind of mount was the product of exotic beasts and horses.

Its endurance is far better than that of ordinary horses, and it can easily travel hundreds of kilometers a day.

"Go."

The fully armed soldiers urged the mounts to run faster, and this team of cavalry passed by Lin Li at a very fast speed.

"Why are these people so hurried? "

Lin Li looked at the cavalrymen who were leaving, and looked at their backs with some curiosity.

At this time, they were not far from the city gate. When they arrived here, many people slowed down their pace.

Some vehicles on the road saw the cavalrymen running over in a hurry, and they were afraid of getting into trouble, so they decisively made way for them.

A dozen cavalrymen ran all the way and soon reached the city gate, and were then stopped by the soldiers guarding the city gate with long spears.

At this time, the leading cavalrymen immediately showed their tokens, and the soldiers guarding the city gate quickly verified their identities, and then let them pass.

Originally, it was not allowed to gallop in the city, but These cavalrymen obviously have a special mission, so they can temporarily not abide by this rule.

The clear sound of horse hooves stepping on the road paved with bluestone bricks can be heard from far away.

The pedestrians and small vendors on the road knew the situation in advance through the sound of horse hooves, raised their heads and looked, and made way very decisively.

The originally crowded streets became unobstructed for a while.

There were many people coming in and out of the gate of the city lord's mansion, and these people were all here to report official business.

At this moment, a dozen cavalrymen suddenly appeared, which immediately attracted the attention of many officials.

"Why are they so anxious? Did something happen?"

"It seems to be related to the misty jungle."

"A few days ago, the dangerous misty jungle was destroyed by a fire. After the Lord knew about it, he sent them to investigate..."

Some officials whispered and watched the cavalry hurriedly entering the city lord's palace.

Someone familiar with the matter revealed the mission of these dozen cavalrymen, and now they are all curious about the results of the investigation.

…………

The towering city walls are intimidating. There are a few soldiers standing in front of the arched door, watching the people entering the city with burning eyes.

The people present are not as privileged as those few cavalry. There are so many people now, and everyone has to line up to enter the city.

Lin Li stood in the queue, looking at the city gate getting closer and closer, and sighed in his heart, "I haven't been back for a long time. When I enter the city later, I will buy some cakes on the roadside to take back."

After a while.

Many people had entered the city, and Lin Li happened to be among them.

He stood on the roadside and found that the vendor who had previously set up a stall selling cakes nearby was nowhere to be seen.

"Hello, uncle."

"What's the matter?"

"There used to be a small vendor selling pastries here, why is he missing?"

"You're talking about him! Something happened to his family, so he won't set up a stall these days."

"Thank you." Lin Li inquired with the vendor selling bamboo baskets on the roadside, and then he muttered a few words with regret.

"The pastries sold by that vendor are quite delicious, but it's a pity."

Since there is no way to buy cakes on the roadside, you can only find other places.

Lin Li hadn't been back to Dongwu City for a while. Looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the road and the running carriages, he felt a sense of novelty again.

"drive."

An empty carriage ran from a distance and stopped not far from Lin Li.

The driver must have just finished a business. After stopping the car, he took a kettle from his waist and took a sip of water, ready to rest and wait for the next customer.

Lin Li quickly stepped forward and came to the carriage to ask the driver.

"Master, I want to buy some pastries. Can you take me to a nearby place that sells pastries?"

The driver didn't expect that he would be doing business just after taking a few sips of water, and he smiled happily.

"Sir, please get in the car."

Lin Li nodded and got into the carriage.

"We're about to leave, please sit tight."

"Already sit tight."

As the driver shook the reins, the horse responded immediately.

"Da, da, da..."

The sound of horse hooves trampling on the ground is very rhythmic.

Because there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the road, the driver did not drive the carriage very fast.

Lin Li was not in a hurry, sitting on the carriage and looking out the window at the street scene.

Although the road is currently very wide, it has become more congested due to too many vehicles and pedestrians.

Traffic jams occasionally occur on the straight road. Unexpectedly, in this other world, traffic jams are still difficult to avoid.
