Chapter 420: The Source of the Miasma
This seemingly endless miasma seems to have its own consciousness, slowly flowing through the entire area, revealing a hazy and mysterious horror.
Looking at these miasma, Ye Dong should definitely have a way to enter it, because the medicine picker who provided the news to Danyangzi was not very high, but he could come and go here freely and unharmed.
It's just that I don't know if Lu Dao is his negligence or Danyangzi's negligence, so he didn't ask in detail about the way to enter.
Ye Dong frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly walked in front of the corpse of the Qihaimen disciple and whispered, "Offended!"
With a slight kick from his feet, the corpse immediately rose directly off the ground, rushed into the miasma, and fell to the ground.
Take the corpse to test the toxicity of the miasma, although this practice is extremely disrespectful to the deceased, but now Ye Dong has no other way.
The corpse fell into the miasma, and after about half a stick of incense, the body began to decay at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon turned into a few white bones, until it completely disappeared, and there was really not even a slag left.
This situation is almost exactly the same as the situation just now when Wu Tiande's fire succubus mist devoured Bian Kai's corpse.
The two people and the wolf who witnessed this scene couldn't help but gasp in their hearts, although they thought that the miasma must be highly poisonous, but they didn't expect the poison to be so violent.
However, no matter how fierce the poison is, for the sake of the golden scale centipede, Ye Dong must also enter, just when he was about to let Mo Linglong and the red wolf stay outside and try it himself, those miasma suddenly began to slowly retreat.
The speed is not fast, it is not slow, it is extremely smooth, and as the miasma disappears, the appearance of this area is gradually revealed.
The sudden change made Ye Dong and the others completely inexplicable, and no one dared to act rashly, and their six eyes stared at the miasma that was getting farther and farther away from them and the others.
In just a quarter of an hour, the miasma had retreated nearly a thousand meters away, and it was still continuing to retreat, and this was the limit of what Ye Dong's eyes could see.
The place where the miasma was exposed was completely a dead place with no grass, all kinds of strange shapes, but completely dead trees stood in it, like the situation of the Dead Soul Mountain, but this did not mean that there was really no life here, because even Mo Linglong heard a faint roar, which came from the cries of some demon beasts.
Demon beasts that can survive in such miasma are either not afraid of poison by nature, or they have adapted to miasma, but no matter what the situation is, it is definitely not easy to deal with.
As far as Ye Dong's eyes could see, there was no longer a shadow of the miasma, and after hesitating for a moment, he said to Mo Linglong and the red wolf: "I don't know what is going on with the Dao, but it should be an opportunity, I'll go and see it first, you guys are waiting for me here, don't worry, with my speed, even if the miasma reappears, I should be able to escape." ”
However, Mo Linglong grabbed him and said: "Wait, I heard Uncle Xiang say that the appearance of miasma in some places is regular, for example, if the miasma appears during the day, it will disappear at night, maybe the same is true here, and now that it is getting late, it is better for us to wait a day and see if this is the case, although it takes a little time, but it is much better than you taking risks." ”
Ye Dong understood that Mo Linglong was worried about himself, so he smiled slightly, nodded and agreed.
So the two of them sat down here, paying attention to the situation in the unknown area in front of them.
The time of the day and two nights passed quickly, and it turned out that Mo Linglong's inference was correct, the miasma here would quickly recede at night, but in the early hours of the morning, it would refill the area at an extremely fast speed, with an interval of about three hours.
This result made Ye Dong also understand why the herb collector could enter and exit this area safely, as long as he could enter and exit this area within these three hours, the danger of miasma was negligible.
As night fell on the third day, these multicolored miasma slowly moved, and as they had done the previous two days, they receded into the depths.
"Let's go!"
Ye Dong took Mo Linglong's hand, followed the red wolf, and rushed into this area like lightning.
The shadows of the huge dead trees with teeth and claws swayed past them, and the two wolves galloped desperately towards the depths of the area.
In this way, after running fast for nearly half an hour, Ye Dong and the red wolf suddenly stopped their bodies almost at the same time.
Because in front of them appeared a swamp with a radius of five meters, on which some dead trees were silently floating, and on top of one of the dead trees, a two-headed python was entangled!
The python's four green eyes were spinning around, as if searching for its own food, and in front of it, a toad larger than a basin was also glaring at it with fierce eyes.
It is not difficult to see that these two are demon beasts, and because they have lived in a miasma environment for many years, their skin and flesh have evolved into solid armor that is invulnerable, and this alternative growth can even divide them into the range of mutation.
Now, these two demon beasts are eyeing each other, and they are bound to have a fierce battle, and although Ye Dong and the red wolf are not afraid of them, in order to avoid trouble, they still decide to just watch from the wall and not disturb them, so as not to burn themselves.
The battle started and ended quickly, and the process was extremely bloody and hot, and in the end, the toad paralyzed the two-headed python by relying on the poisonous slurry that continued to spew out of its body, and when it slowed down, a big mouth swallowed it whole.
After a few moments, the toad opened its mouth and spat out a few pieces of broken bones and a thin piece of python skin that had become as thin as paper.
The toad, who had eaten and drunk enough, raised its head to the sky and let out a loud frog chirp, and then slowly dived into the mud of this swamp with satisfaction.
Ye Dong and the red wolf couldn't help but look at each other, this toad actually lived under the mud!
Originally, Ye Dong had also moved the idea of hunting toads, but now he has put this idea behind him, the demon beasts that grow in such a strange environment, it is better not to provoke them casually!
With Mo Linglong, Ye Dong and the red wolf directly jumped over this swamp and continued to rush forward.
Along the way, they encountered several strange-looking monsters, and Ye Dong and the red wolf didn't bother them, just buried their heads and hurried away.
After running for nearly half an hour, they finally stopped again, and their faces showed solemnity and surprise at the same time, because they saw the miasma again!
The colorful miasma covers a pool of water that cannot be seen at all, and the black pool water is bubbling with blisters, and after the blisters burst, they will emit the same brightly colored miasma!
Here, obviously, is the source of the miasma!
