Chapter 51: The Land of the Miasma
A black-gray mist filled the sky and the sky, making it look like a gray ocean within a radius of several miles, revealing a strange and dangerous aura.
"Bang~"
In the gray mist, a dazzling spiritual light suddenly flashed, penetrating the gray-black mist, and then there was a collision, as if something had fallen to the ground.
Xue Qinghan withdrew his palm, looked at the corpse of a strange big bird that fell to the ground not far away, and frowned. This big bird's whole body is the same gray-black as this mist, as if it is completely integrated into this mist, the body length is several zhang, a pair of wings are more than three zhang wide, the bird's beak is like a dagger, revealing a black luster, with a mouthful of sharp teeth, and fierce eyes.
At this time, in the center of the head of this strange bird, a sword mark directly penetrated, leaving a transparent hole on its skull, and blood mixed with white objects flowed out, making it die in an instant, and there was still a strong kendo aura left in the wound.
Xue Qinghan and the others shuttled through this gray-black ocean, but even with their cultivation strength, they still couldn't penetrate these strange gray-black mist, here, the range they could see with their eyesight was only a few tens of zhang. Moreover, in this area, their divine soul perception was also extremely severely suppressed, and when they spread out, they constantly received these strange mist from the bottom of it, and they couldn't explore too far away.
In addition, the spiritual power of the talisman around their bodies is also constantly corroded, and the spiritual power they consume is not to be replenished by the spiritual energy in this area, and it is also a consumption that cannot be ignored for a long time.
What made Xue Qinghan and the others a little uncomfortable was that there were a lot of demon beasts living in this area, and Xue Qinghan and the others had only been in this area for half a day, but they had encountered hundreds of attacks. These demon beasts are completely accustomed to these strange mist, and they can hide in them perfectly, as if they are integrated with the mist, silently and abruptly. Fortunately, the strength of the attacking demon beasts encountered by Xue Qinghan and the others so far is not very strong, and with their strength, they can still easily deal with it without being at a loss, but who knows if there is an existence hidden in that invisible gray that can really threaten them?
Xue Qinghan stepped out, spanning a distance of several zhang in an instant, landing on top of a bare dead tree, took out the compass and looked at the flickering pointers on it, and then looked at the gray and black that filled the entire field of vision, and sighed helplessly. They couldn't even make out the direction in it, and the speed of their movement was extremely slow, and they didn't know where they were now for half a day.
It would have saved a lot of effort if they could fly over it, but now it's not that they don't want to, it's that they can't. When they were on the periphery, they looked at this area from afar, and they could vaguely see an ancient tree in the central area, with a dense canopy, like a canopy shrouded in the sky, and Manyan went out for several miles. From here, the white catkins spread out to the whole small world, drifting into the distance.
But when Xue Qinghan and the others wanted to approach from above, they found that no matter how they moved forward, when they turned around, they found that they were still outside, never approaching the slightest. There, it seems that someone has directly sealed the entire void with great mana, close at hand, but far away from the end of the world. It is precisely because of the existence of this ban that Xue Qinghan and the others could not see this ancient tree that went straight into the sky at all in the distance, otherwise with such a striking attitude, in this small world, no matter where they are, they can see this towering tree that pierces the sky at a glance.
"This poisonous miasma is so powerful, even metal can corrode quickly, and I don't know how long this poison pill can last, the situation is a bit bad. Lu Li landed beside Xue Qinghan, looking at the rusty and almost rotten metal dagger in his hand and sighed. He just removed the dagger and extended the spiritual power into the poisonous miasma for a short time, and he became like this, you can imagine what kind of miserable situation it would be if it was human flesh and blood.
"It's too late to quit now, let's save some spiritual power, let's go ahead and have a look. Xue Qinghan turned his head and commanded, and then his figure flashed and walked towards the poisonous miasma in front of him.
After about half an hour, Xue Qinghan, who was walking in front, suddenly paused, and then retreated backwards without warning. At the same time, the long sword in Xue Qinghan's hand glowed with an incomparable light, and the endless sword qi around his body swirled, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the front.
Lu Li and the others in the rear saw Xue Qinghan's figure retreating violently, and they knew what was going on without asking. I saw that in front of Xue Qinghan's route just now, a behemoth suddenly jumped out of the ground, and a huge mouth directly enveloped the place where Xue Qinghan was standing like a demon's mouth.
The violent fluctuations set off a frenzied storm with a pungent stench that spread, causing the gray and black color to dissipate for a moment, revealing the true body of the behemoth in the thin mist.
It was an ancient crocodile that was a hundred feet long, crawling in the mire below, and at first it didn't feel the slightest breath, and its figure was not visible. At this moment, the huge body was revealed, towering there like a small mountain, exuding a terrifying coercion.
The ancient crocodile opened and closed with a bloody mouth, revealing fangs several feet long, the cold light flickered, and a pair of eyes exuded coldness, staring coldly at Xue Qinghan and the others.
"The demon beasts of the Dao God Realm seem to have a lot of spiritual intelligence. Xue Qinghan felt the breath on the ancient crocodile's body, looked at the pair of fierce pupils, and said secretly in his heart, and then his brows moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked a faint arc.
"You say, do the demon beasts in this area know the location of the Pu Demon Tree?" Xue Qinghan chuckled.
"What do you mean...... yes, we can't find the direction, but these guys are completely used to this area, and it's perfect to let them lead the way. Lu Li was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed excitement.
"What do you think of this guy? It's hard to find monsters that aren't controlled. Xue Qinghan said. Many of the demon beasts they had encountered before had a small sapling rooted in them, and it was obvious that the puppet controlled by the Pu Demon Tree was there.
The blood demon nodded, stepped out, his figure rose sharply, and then a blood-colored sword light seemed to cut through the space and shrouded towards the ancient crocodile without any pretense, and as soon as he made a move, it was an extremely powerful attack. Bloody and fighting people, it seems that there is never a temptation, every move, the pursuit is always the greatest killing enemy, the attack is fierce and domineering.
"Roar~"
The blood-colored sword light crossed the sky, and when the head was cut off, the ancient crocodile let out a manic roar, the blood basin opened its mouth, and the sound turned into tangible ripples and spread, colliding with the knife light, and both of them were annihilated in mid-air.
"Hey, I'll try it too. Seeing this, Lu Li also stepped out, and the wild power flowed around him, and a huge thunder and lightning unicorn condensed behind him, and the purple electric light was entangled, making Lu Li look like the thunder god who held the thunder, and raised his hand to blast out with a punch.
"Bell~"
The fist light broke through the air and smashed down, and the ancient crocodile naturally noticed Lu Li, and when he shook his body, he swept over, stirring up the mud in the sky, carrying terrifying power and directly colliding with Lu Li's fist, making a sound of metal clashing, and that hard armor seemed to be made of steel.
Under the blow, the tail of the ancient crocodile was blasted out, but Lu Li was also swept back by the tail of the ancient crocodile. Lu Li rubbed his fists, clenched his fists vigorously, and grinned, he was worthy of being a demon beast, and this physical strength was really not covered. However, this is better, Lu Li's body rose with a strong fighting intent, and with a step on his feet, he rushed forward again, directly engaging in the most direct and violent confrontation with the ancient crocodile, and the loud noises continued.
At the same time, the bloody demon did not stop, and the side of the body avoided a giant claw that the ancient crocodile slapped down, and the snow knife swirled, approaching the front paws of the ancient crocodile, and slashed directly at the head of the ancient crocodile.
For a while, the two of them and one beast fought together violently, and Lu Li and the Blood Demon firmly suppressed the ancient crocodile, but the terrifying defense of the ancient crocodile made it impossible for the two to completely take it down.
"Without further ado, let's do it together, we can't delay. Xue Qinghan spoke, and then his figure flashed, and the endless sword qi surged out, and the sword light was fierce, stabbing directly towards the ancient crocodile.
A pitch-black arrow instantly appeared in front of the ancient crocodile's pupil, stabbing at the ancient crocodile eye with an incomparable aura. However, it was closed by the eyes of the ancient crocodile, and it was directly blocked, although it let out a miserable howl.
At the same time, a mighty sword power shrouded down, and above the ancient crocodile's head, endless sword qi swam and outlined In an instant, it turned into a brilliant sword diagram, swallowing the extreme edge, dozens of giant long swords dozens of zhang long swords condensed and born, and when the head stabbed down, the ancient crocodile was directly imprisoned there, and let out a roar, but the sword qi cut a bloody hole on the thick leather armor
"Forehead......" Xue Qinghan and the others stopped their hands stupidly, looking at Luo Shuang, who had imprisoned the ancient crocodile to the ground with an understatement, and even Xue Qinghan was a little speechless.
As Xue Qinghan expected, these local creatures can really find the location of the Pu Demon Tree, which is much more efficient than Xue Qinghan and a few people who are blind and wandering around, and a few hours later, Xue Qinghan and a few people stood on top of the ancient crocodile's body, looking at the giant tree that reached the sky in the mist, and their faces also became solemn.
And during the more than ten days that Xue Qinghan and the others stayed in this small world, what they didn't know was that some huge changes were happening in the team that entered this sealed land.
In a crimson world, a figure broke through the air, but when it landed, it was a stumbling and almost falling, a noble and delicate face was pale at this time, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth, but she didn't care about the injury, and quickly fled into the distance.
After a while, there was another sound of breaking the air, and several black figures appeared in the place where the woman stayed, her eyes looked around, and then locked in a direction, and said coldly: "Chase, you must not let her run away, the thing is still on her." ”
Immediately, several black figures chased in one direction.
