"Alright, then how about this: tell me the specific feeling and location of this field, and I can find the kitchen through that description."

Wu Feng actually felt a bit urgent now. After all, Wu was likely working in that kitchen, and there had been no movement from him so far; perhaps something had gone wrong.

Now Wu Feng and Wu were essentially two sides of the same coin; if something happened to Wu, Wu Feng, as Wu's clone, would certainly have problems too.

Therefore, Wu Feng was somewhat anxious.

But the head just shook his head at Wu Feng's anxious appearance and said faintly: "Don't talk to me about that. Whatever I say now has no meaning. Since you entered this 'Strange' land, there's no way to get out. Accept your fate."

"Accept my fate? Do you accept yours? As a cultivator with a deep cultivation base, you ended up as a scarecrow in someone's field. Do you accept that? I don't believe it. No normal person would accept their fate in this situation."

Wu Feng said to this guy in a low, lingering tone.

And the head didn't reply for a long time after hearing this.

Wu Feng had no choice but to continue: "I know you are very uncomfortable now, and you have suffered a lot of hardship. But you must know that no matter what kind of hardship it is, as a cultivator, you have to endure it. If it must be endured, it must be endured; this is part of cultivation."

"What kind of bullshit 'part of cultivation' is that? If you're so capable, why don't you come and cultivate it yourself?"

Seeing Wu Feng speaking without thinking, the head was burning with rage.

However, Wu Feng still looked at the guy faintly and said: "No matter what, this is your fate. But a person's fate can change. Right now, you are a scarecrow guarding a field for the 'Stranges', but what about later? Have you thought about your future?"

"Perhaps my appearance is the opportunity to lead you out of the sea of suffering? You should seize it. After all, there isn't just this one field in the entire backyard, you know."

After Wu Feng said this, the head looked around, and only after seeing that the other fields had no movement did he feel relieved. He said to Wu Feng, feeling depressed: "What do you want?"

"I don't want anything. I just want to know all the information about this inn from you. You've been here for a long time, probably several thousand years, right? You still maintain your sanity, which means one thing: you should still want to live, and you still have some longing for the future, right?"

Hearing this, the head said depressedly: "I want to die too. Ten thousand years of torture... but I have seen with my own eyes that even after a cultivator dies, their soul will combine with this place and become a 'Strange'. I don't want to be like them, which is why I've persisted until now."

As he spoke, the guy even started crying. It was obvious that these ten thousand years of time had caused him a lot of suffering.

"Sigh, forget it. I'll tell you the situation of this inn. As long as you can destroy this inn, you and your friend will be able to escape."

"Really?"

Although Wu Feng had inferred as much before, now that he heard it from an insider like the head, he felt somewhat excited.

Chapter 2067: Mass Grave

Chapter 2067: Mass Grave

"Don't be happy too soon."

The head squinted at Wu Feng and said leisurely: "This inn was previously located on a mass grave, which was filled with many wandering souls. Even before the 'Stranges' came, this place was already considered one of the biggest forbidden areas in the city."

According to the head, this mass grave forbidden area already had many problems when the city was still normal, and after the 'Stranges' arrived, it became even more terrifying.

With the arrival of an indescribable 'Strange' entity, the entire mass grave turned into a cloud of black mist.

This cloud of black mist condensed for at least three months, and three months later, this inn stood upon the mass grave.

This inn, like many buildings around it, was born along with the 'Stranges'.

Currently, there are over a hundred humanoid 'Stranges' in the inn. Besides the dozen or so waiters, there are also chefs, butchers, and so on.

Of course, the biggest group is those guests who look like they have very low cultivation bases.

The combat power of these guests appears very weak under normal circumstances, but once they erupt, even Wu Feng would find it very difficult to deal with them.

"So, fighting head-on is definitely not going to work. You must find the core area of this inn and destroy it to have a chance of winning."

Finally, the head summarized.

After thinking for a while, Wu Feng said: "So, you are certain that the kitchen is the core area, right?"

The head nodded and said: "Yes, that's it. I will pass on some information I have about the kitchen to you; you can experience it yourself."

As he spoke, the head opened his mouth, and a pitch-black aura shot out from it.

Wu Feng instinctively wanted to dodge, but he held back.

This pitch-black aura entered Wu Feng's mind, and immediately, he saw a gloomy scene.

In this scene, several 'Stranges' were processing food inside, and strands of black mist were rising from the food and entering a boiler nearby.

From the boiler came waves of an aura that made Wu Feng feel like vomiting after smelling it.

There was almost no light in the kitchen, but all the 'Stranges' were doing their work in an orderly manner.

The other 'Stranges' had weak auras, or rather, to Wu Feng, they didn't pose much of a threat.

However, sitting by the boiler was a 'Strange' who looked tall overall, standing at least ten meters high, holding a very, very long spoon in his hand.

The spoon was stirring in the boiler, and waves of light emerged from it, filling the entire kitchen with a scent that made Wu Feng want to vomit.

But those 'Stranges' were actually yearning for and very fond of this aura, constantly absorbing it, and the indescribable aura on their bodies began to thicken.

Upon seeing this, Wu Feng suddenly felt his own body begin to convulse, and a very massive power was transmitted from within. This power was surging frantically, giving Wu Feng a very comfortable feeling from the bottom of his heart.

However, immediately after, his body began to show signs of disintegration.

Wu Feng returned to reality and saw the head shouting at him constantly, his face full of anxiety.

Chapter 2068: Strange

"What are you panicking about?"

Wu Feng asked the head somewhat strangely.

The head carefully checked Wu Feng's expression, and only after seeming to confirm something did his face relax. He said irritably: "Just now, your body actually had a tendency to change towards a 'Strange'. I was shouting to wake you up, okay?"

Regarding the head's words, Wu Feng furrowed his brows. He thought of certain things, thought of a certain possibility.

"Could it be because I ate that kind of food before?"

The head's face also changed, and he said: "Yes, that should be it. Strictly speaking, that food isn't something humans can eat; it's food for 'Stranges'. After you ate it, changing towards a 'Strange' should be inevitable."

Wu Feng felt absolutely no pressure about his body changing towards a 'Strange'. After all, he was already a 'Strange' long ago, and later he would just need to have Wu evolve a new clone for him, and he would be fine.

However, Wu Feng was still a bit strange, because in his perception, 'Stranges' shouldn't need to eat at all.

Although 'Stranges' seem to have a desire to swallow, that is generally a desire for human cultivators.

'Stranges' wouldn't want to eat real food.

Wu Feng had been a 'Strange' for a while, so he was very clear about this point.

Therefore, Wu Feng asked about it, and the head shook his head and said irritably: "That's just the normal situation. But this inn is different. The food we guard is itself a part of the 'Stranges'. If it is eaten by a 'Strange', it can increase the 'Strange's' strength."

"This inn has been here for over ten thousand years. Do you know how much 'Strange' food these 'Stranges' have eaten? Their strength has reached a terrifying level. You... are completely no match for them."

As he spoke, the head began to droop and muttered to himself: "It seems my idea of wanting to be liberated is just a pipe dream. The final result will definitely be very terrifying."

Regarding this guy's statement, Wu Feng could only shake his head and say: "Since you've said so, what else can I say? But don't worry, as long as I'm still alive, I will definitely fight these 'Stranges'."

After all, the more powerful the 'Strange', the more powerful the opportunity they guard must be. Dying at the hands of a 'Strange' or dying at the hands of 'Wu' actually made no difference to Wu Feng.

Seeing Wu Feng's determined look, the head finally nodded and said: "Alright, anyway, I'm already like this. No matter what the end is, can it be any worse than now?"

"Come, let me give you a hand to find that kitchen."

As he spoke, the head suddenly let out a wail, and then the skin on his head began to crack, and one piece of skin after another floated out from the head and landed on Wu Feng's hand.

There were a total of ten skin fragments.

The head stopped wailing, and his skin gradually recovered, but it seemed his complexion was even worse.

The head said weakly: "This was my previous life-bound magic treasure. After combining with the 'Stranges' here, it has more 'Strange' means. Take it. I've already given you the aura of the kitchen; I think you should be able to find it."

Chapter 2069: Efficacy

Wu Feng looked at the fragments and asked: "What is the efficacy of these fragments?"

The head said weakly: "I can't explain the efficacy of these fragments clearly. Anyway, if you feel you've encountered a difficulty you can't solve yourself, just scatter them at the enemy. It should be able to save you once."

As he spoke, the head gradually closed his eyes and began to fall into a deep sleep.

Wu Feng put the fragments into his storage bag and then bowed to the sleeping head.

After all, the person had given him a lot of help.

"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to liberate you."

Wu Feng said in a low voice.

The head had no reaction, as if this offering of treasure had consumed a great deal of his energy.

Wu Feng turned around and walked towards the back door in front.

As he walked, Wu Feng discovered that for some reason, the distance between him and the back door remained unchanged. ===== CHAPTER 3184 =====
