My place is on fire

Chapter 1132 Let’s go!

After testing the effect of the lotus silk walking shoes.

Zhao Rui returned to Luo Xuning's residence with a happy look on her face.

At this moment, the secret realm has fallen into darkness, and lights are flickering in thousands of houses.

Luo Xuning's residence was brightly lit by several football-sized luminous pearls.

"Zhao Rui, the issues with the Ice and Snow City and the Ice Vein Clan have basically been resolved. It's time for us to leave."

"What do you think? Is there anything else to do?"

Luo Xuning looked at Zhao Rui who was sitting opposite him and asked for her opinion.

Zhao Rui didn't even ask where Luo Xuning was going, and said without hesitation:

"I can go anytime! Wherever the master goes, I will go!"

Looking at Zhao Rui's determined eyes, Luo Xuning felt a warm feeling in his heart.

He knew that Zhao Rui's trust and loyalty to him were unconditional.

This made him more determined to lead her to grow together.

"Okay, now that you're ready, let's set off early tomorrow morning."

Luo Xuning nodded, and there was a barely perceptible tenderness in his tone.

"Rest well tonight and get enough rest. Tomorrow we will head south to the Ape Forest."

"Okay master!"

Zhao Rui nodded, her eyes flashing with excitement and anticipation.

Luo Xuning waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. We'll set off tomorrow morning after we say goodbye to Bingbing and the others."

"Yeah! Good night, Master! I'm leaving now."

Zhao Rui smiled and waved to Luo Xuning, then walked towards her residence happily.

While walking, I would look down at the lotus silk shoes on my feet from time to time, and I loved them so much in my heart!
After watching Zhao Rui walk away, Luo Xuning turned back to his residence and looked at the night sky outside through the window of the wooden house.

Although there is no sun or moon in this secret realm of the Ice Vein Clan, there is an alternation of day and night according to the change of time.

Moreover, plants growing in secret places do not need sunlight to grow.

As for the principle behind this, Luo Xuning couldn't understand it and was too lazy to study it in detail.

Since coming to this ape planet, Luo Xuning has witnessed too many things that cannot be explained by the physics on Earth, and this one is no exception.

"According to Patriarch Bing Xiuwen, their family tree records that this Arctic ice field is 10081 kilometers long and wide, and its area is very huge."

"This place is about tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Ape Forest in the center of the Ape Planet."

"If Zhao Rui and I move at full speed, it will probably take about a week."

"I wonder how Kolina's tribe is doing now. After I left, did any other tribes look for trouble?"

Looking at the night sky, Luo Xuning thought of the time when he first came to the Planet of the Apes and met Kolina for the first time.

The two went from being strangers to meeting each other, getting to know each other, and falling in love. Everything seemed to have been predestined by fate.

When he thought about reuniting with Corina and the others soon, Luo Xuning couldn't help but feel a little excited.

The next morning, Luo Xuning and Zhao Rui said goodbye to Patriarch Bing Xiuwen and some generals from the Ice and Snow City who came with Zhao Rui, and then set off directly.

Heading south, we head towards the Yuanshi Forest at high speed!
Luo Xuning and Zhao Rui are extremely fast, especially after Zhao Rui put on the lotus silk cloud-buying shoes, her speed increased by 300%, and the fine obsidian gun increased her basic movement speed by 300%.

She was almost able to keep up with Luo Xuning's flying speed.

The two of them were like two flashes of lightning, crossing the land of the secret realm, leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

but……

Luo Xuning's physical strength is almost unlimited, but Zhao Rui's physical strength is limited. She can only fly about 2000 kilometers a day at most, and then she is exhausted and needs to rest.

"Master, what kind of place is the Ape Forest?"

During the evening rest period, Zhao Rui and Luo Xuning sat in front of a campfire, eating and chatting.

Luo Xunning smiled and answered: "The Ape Forest is the central area of ​​the Ape Planet. There are dense primeval forests and various strange creatures living there.

The forest is rich in resources, but also full of unknown dangers. There are also thousands of tribes, large and small, living there. It is much more lively than the Arctic Icefield. "

"It sounds interesting and exciting!"

When Zhao Rui heard Luo Xuning's description of the Ape Forest, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Full of anticipation for the upcoming adventure.

"It's really exciting. It feels like the ancient times when heroes fought for supremacy among thousands of people."

"The Ape Forest is also the most mysterious and complex place on the entire Ape Planet."

Luo Shuning's voice sounded particularly steady amid the crackling of the campfire:

“The forest here covers the center of the planet, and is so large that it occupies almost one-third of the planet’s surface.

The central area of ​​the forest is impenetrable even to the most advanced detection equipment and hides countless secrets and dangers."

Zhao Rui listened attentively, her eyes sparkling with curiosity in the light of the fire.

"The climate of the Ape Forest is varied, from frozen snow-capped mountains to hot rainforests, from dry deserts to deep lakes, all kinds of climate types can be found here."

Luo Shuning continued: "This diverse climate has created a rich ecosystem in the primitive forest.

In the Yuanshi Forest, you can see towering trees that are hundreds of meters high, as well as mysterious caves hidden underground.

There are also many strange creatures that have never appeared on Earth.”

"Master, how do the creatures there compare in strength to the monsters on the Arctic ice field?" Zhao Rui asked.

Luo Xuning said: "Most of the creatures in the Ape Forest are extremely ferocious, and many of them have great strength and special abilities.

For example, there is a creature called "Shadow Leopard". They can be almost completely invisible in the forest and are extremely fast. They are the top hunters in the forest.

There is also a creature called "Rock Armored Beast". Its skin is as hard as rock and it has great strength. It is a heavy tank in the forest.

Then there are the giant apes that flooded into our Earth from the secret realm before."

"Wow, that sounds so cool!" Zhao Rui said excitedly.

Luo Xuning smiled and continued, "In addition to these creatures, there are many strange plants in the Ape Forest.

Some plants can capture and digest animals, while others can release hallucinogenic gases.

Some plants can glow at night, lighting up a corner of the forest.”

"What about the tribes in the Ape Forest? How do they live?"

Zhao Rui asked curiously.

Luo Xunning's expression turned serious: "There are many tribes in the Ape Forest, and their lifestyles are different.

Some tribes made a living by hunting, some by gathering, and some tribes mastered simple agricultural techniques.

There was both cooperation and competition among these tribes, and sometimes even war.”

"War?" Zhao Rui frowned.

"Yes, war." Luo Xuning sighed, "Although the resources in the Ape Forest are abundant, they are not evenly distributed.

Some tribes controlled fertile land and abundant water sources, while others lived in barren areas.

In order to compete for resources, conflicts between tribes are inevitable.

Before, Kolina and her "Leaf Clan" were almost wiped out by the Qing Clan. The Arctic Icefield is a battle between humans and nature, and between humans and strange beasts.

In the Ape Forest, in addition to fighting with strange beasts, we also have to fight with humans, and the situation is even more cruel. "

"Oh……"

Zhao Rui nodded and looked at Luo Xuning with burning eyes.

Although the road ahead is not peaceful, she has absolute trust in her master!
As long as I am with the Master, wherever I go, I will feel at peace!
"Okay, now that we've had enough, let's go practice."

"Uh-huh."

Luo Xuning's mind moved, and the two of them instantly disappeared from the ground and came to an underground space more than 1000 meters underground.

In the underground space, it is spring all year round, and there is no need to worry about being disturbed by wild beasts on the Arctic ice fields.

Luo Xuning used the art of distraction to bring a strand of Zhao Rui's mind into his own relic ring to help her practice.

Another week has passed in a flash...

During this period, the two traveled during the day and ate and practiced at night.

After flying southward for tens of thousands of kilometers, we finally crossed the border of the Arctic ice field and entered a new area.

As the two continued to move forward, the surrounding environment began to change.

The severe cold of the ice sheet was gradually replaced by a temperate climate, and the vegetation on the ground changed from being covered in ice and snow to being covered in green grass.

A few days later, they had left the secret territory of the Ice Vein Clan and entered an unknown area.

The terrain here is varied, sometimes it is a vast plain, sometimes it is a dense forest, and sometimes it is a rugged mountainous area.

Although they were moving fast, Luo Xuning remained vigilant and paid attention to the surrounding environment at all times.

"Master, how long will it take us to reach the Ape Forest?"

Zhao Rui asked, she had gradually adapted to the rhythm of the long journey.

Luo Xunning estimated the distance and replied: "According to our speed, it will probably take another three or four days.

However, we cannot just pursue speed, we must maintain our physical strength and be ready to deal with possible dangers at any time."

Zhao Rui nodded to show her understanding. She knew that Luo Xuning had much more experience than her, and she would follow his pace.

As the journey continued, they encountered attacks from some wild beasts and monsters, but they were all easily dealt with by Luo Xuning and Zhao Rui.

These small battles also gave Zhao Rui some training, and her strength was improved in actual combat.

Finally, on the evening of the seventh day, a dense forest appeared before their eyes.

At the edge of the forest, huge trees stand tall, and the dense treetops block out the sun, giving people a mysterious and profound feeling.

"Master, is that the Monkey Forest?"

Zhao Rui looked at the forest in front of her and felt an inexplicable awe in her heart.

"Yes, that is the Monkey Forest. We are finally there."

The moment Luo Xuning and Zhao Rui stepped into the Yuanshi Forest, it was as if they had entered another world.

The forest was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. The branches and leaves of the towering trees blocked the sky, leaving only mottled sunlight shining through the gaps.

The air in the forest is filled with the fresh smell of soil and vegetation, and occasionally you can hear strange birds singing in the distance.

The two of them walked carefully through the forest. Relying on his past memories, Luo Xuning led Zhao Rui towards the direction of the Kolina tribe.

Their steps were light and quick, and despite the complex terrain in the forest, they did not slow down.

"Master, the trees here are so tall!"

Zhao Rui couldn't help but sigh that she had never seen such a spectacular forest.

Luo Xuning smiled slightly and said, "The Ape Forest is the oldest forest on this planet.

Every tree here is probably thousands of years old.”

They continued walking until the sun began to set and the light in the forest grew dimmer.

Luo Xuning stopped and said to Zhao Rui, "Let's take a rest here first and continue on tomorrow morning.

At night, there are not only elusive ferocious beasts in the Yuanshi Forest, but also some poisonous miasma that is invisible to the naked eye.

If you don't pay attention, you might get hit, so it's not suitable to travel."

"Yes, I will listen to Master."

Zhao Rui nodded obediently. It had become her habit to listen to Luo Ning's words along the way.

Luo Xuning had an idea and took Zhao Rui into the underground space created by the earth escape technique.

Resting here at night is not only more comfortable but also safer.

Zhao Rui skillfully used some dry branches collected on the ground to make a bonfire in the underground space.

The underground space appears to be a closed environment, but the air is well circulated and there will be no suffocation due to fire.

It didn't take long for Zhao Rui to roast a few fawns that she had hunted during the day until they were golden brown and juicy.

The master and his disciple sat around the campfire, eating venison with a knife while talking and laughing.

Luo Xuning told Zhao Rui the story of how he met Corina and their adventures in the secret realm of the mother tree.

"Master, Kolina must be very beautiful, right?"

Zhao Rui asked curiously.

"really……"

When he thought of Corina, a gentle light flashed in Luo Xuning's eyes.

When they parted before, Luo Xuning not only left the Thunder Wing Tiger to Kolina, but also protected her safety.

She was also given a top-grade plant spirit to enhance her own strength.

The spirit of the best plants and trees not only obviously improves one's personal strength.

The changes to a person's appearance are also extremely obvious, and will optimize various genes in the body!

All those who have taken the finest herbal spirits seem to have undergone a complete transformation.

After Luo Xuning took the spirit of top-grade plants, his height grew by more than ten centimeters, reaching 1 meters.

His already handsome facial features became even more three-dimensional and stylish, just like a deity.

When Zhao Rui met Luo Xuning before, she didn't recognize that he was the master she had been dreaming of meeting!

"Then have Master and Corina already..."

Zhao Rui looked at Luo Xuning with a gossipy expression, her eyes full of curiosity.

According to Luo Xuning, the two of them were alone in the underground space of the mother tree secret realm for several months.

A man and a woman alone, and they are both handsome and beautiful, it would be strange if they could control themselves!

"Ahem...I really didn't grasp it at that time."

Luo Xuning smiled awkwardly and admitted frankly that this kind of thing could not be concealed.

Instead of hiding it, it is better to admit it openly.

Zhao Rui whispered in a voice that only she could hear: "I really envy Corina..."

"What?" Luo Xuning asked as he didn't hear clearly what Zhao Rui said.

Zhao Rui blushed and quickly changed her words: "Ahem, it's nothing. I said that Kelina is really lucky to meet such a good man like Master."
