"How are we supposed to get across?"
Li Luo asked quizzically, looking at the twisted forest ahead.
"Follow me."
Zhou Chao walked ahead of Li Luo and stepped onto a large, fallen tree.
The moment he stepped on the tree, its roots began to twist violently, as if trying to attack Zhou Chao.
However, the roots' movements were sluggish and they weren't long enough. Aside from looking incredibly bizarre, they posed no threat.
"Don't touch the ground. Just jump across using these trees," Zhou Chao said, turning his head to Li Luo.
Li Luo nodded and followed Zhou Chao's lead, leaping onto a fallen tree.
"Remember to stay away from the roots," Zhou Chao reminded him.
"Got it…"
And so, the two of them used the fallen trees to press deeper into the forest.
Meanwhile, Mo Ling sat on his bed, warily guarding against his surroundings.
