461. The Ancient and Modern of the Black Oil Swamp
The task of guarding the Black Oil Swamp is not to assign a certain elder, but to replace it in turns, usually every ten years.
This time is a long time for mortals, but for advanced immortal cultivators, it is just a time for a short retreat.
Actually, the witch has never done this task.
Because, the time for her to become the first seat of Youqiong Peak is too short, less than thirty years, and it has not been her turn.
However, this time, the law enforcement elder who guarded the Black Oil Swamp left for her business, so she naturally took over the town guarding work.
In fact, if the boss really wants to transfer other people over, it is not impossible.
The careful thinking of this... The witch also knew it, and she didn't want to refuse.
As soon as the group arrived, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall greeted them and bowed down.
"Law Enforcement Hall Akiba has seen Uncle Shi."
The witch waved her hand very casually, and then said as she walked up the mountain.
"Little Autumn Leaves... No need to be polite, it's the first time I've guarded the Black Oil Swamp, tell me about the situation here! ”
Faced with such a title, Akiba smiled wryly.
There is probably this unserious uncle in the sect... That's what you call yourself.
You must know that she is the chief disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the disciples of her peers in the sect are a little afraid of herself.
As for those elders, they also looked kind and pleasant when they saw her.
Although the witch didn't call her very formally, it also carried a hint of intimacy, so she didn't mean to be unhappy, she quickly followed the witch's footsteps, and said with a solemn face.
"Uncle Shi, today's black oil swamp is completely different from usual!"
The witch didn't stop and said.
"Oh, tell me about it."
Akiba continued to follow and introduced.
"Uncle Shi should know that when the Black Oil Swamp was not developed, there were many demon beasts in it, which was very dangerous."
The witch nodded, she also knew about this situation, there were records in the history of the sect, although she was addicted to alcohol, but she was also the pride of the sect before, and she knew everything she should know.
"I know this, it was two thousand years ago, the disciples of the sect accidentally discovered the effect of black oil, reported it to the sect, and finally the sect decided to develop the black oil swamp, and united with the Divine Fire Sect, which had the same discovery, and strangled most of the demon beasts together."
Akiba nodded and agreed.
"Yes, Uncle Shi, since then, there have only been scattered demon beasts in the swamp, and the danger is not great, and then the two factions decided to send their respective disciples to search for and mine black oil. In this way, the two factions allowed their disciples to be among them... Compare notes. ”
Then, Akiba talked about the current situation.
"But this situation changed a month ago, the black oil swamp has changed, and there are suddenly a lot of very special demon beasts in it, they are elusive, and their strength spans a lot, from the foundation building period to the tribulation period."
Although the witch knew that the situation here was serious, she didn't expect it to be so serious.
Even the human monsters and beasts that have crossed the tribulation period have come out, this is to break the sky!
"How many are there during the Tribulation?"
Akiba shook her head and replied helplessly.
"Not sure, my master has only seen one."
a.
It's not much better!
The witch continued.
"Well, you said a special monster... What's so special about it? ”
Autumn leaves have a strange look on their faces, and they say.
"They are strange on the outside, but on the inside, they are all composed of black oil, and once they encounter a life and death crisis, they will immediately explode themselves, and their lethality is amazing. At the same time, it will also form a sea of fire in the surrounding area, and once the flame is stained, it will be like a maggot attached to the bone, which is extremely difficult to get rid of. ”
Akiba remembered a self-explosion she had experienced, and the fire burned for three full days before it was extinguished, and the power was terrifying to think about.
If it weren't for her master at the time... With the law enforcement elder by her side, she would definitely be seriously injured, maybe even killed on the spot.
In short, today's black oil swamps are extremely dangerous.
At this time, the group had reached the top of the mountain.
At the bottom of the hill is an endless swamp, with scattered puddles, seemingly flat land, dotted with countless weeds several people tall, and some low shrubs.
On the surface, this is just an ordinary swamp. But there is an endless killing machine hidden inside.
Moreover, there was another special feature of the Black Oil Swamp, which was an extremely headache for cultivators.
That's... Ordinary people's divine consciousness cannot enter the depths of the earth at all.
This means... Special demons hiding underground can attack others with impunity.
The witch's eyes flashed, and she was obviously already probing the swamp.
But the next moment, she dissipated her consciousness with some disappointment and asked.
"What's the reaction over there at the Divine Fire Gate?"
Akiba hurriedly replied.
"Master went to communicate with the town guard elders of the Divine Fire Gate, and they had no choice, so they all withdrew from the swamp like us."
After learning the latest information, the witch was a little blind, she had tried it just now, and she couldn't see the problem on her own.
In fact, this is not a shame, you must know that the law enforcement elder is a veteran master of the catastrophe period, and his experience is much richer than that of his junior.
It's not a shame that even she can't do it, and she can't do it herself.
However, I came here with a professional this time.
Thinking of this, the witch turned her head to look behind her, a young man with a big bone in his arms... Ye Yuan.
In fact, Ye Yuan's appearance had already attracted the attention of the left-behind disciples.
After all, it is really strange that the first seat of Qiongfeng brought a "little white face" with him.
Although there are not many male disciples from the outer sect of the sect, the inner sect is generally not close to the outer sect.
Therefore, Ye Yuan's appearance is very eye-catching.
The witch looked at Ye Yuan's look of cherishing a bone, and couldn't help but wonder if she was right to give it to Ye Yuan.
"When the mission is over and you return to Youqiongfeng, you can gnaw as much as you want, now, it's time to get down to business!"
This woman... Can't speak!
"Oh."
Ye Yuan reluctantly sent the bones into the Sumeru ring, and reluctantly exerted his magical powers.
The next moment, the swamp completely changed in Ye Yuan's eyes.
What a swamp this is, it's just...
At this moment, Ye Yuan's eyes glared at the boss, and his expression was extremely shocked.
"No h..."
Before Ye Yuan finished speaking, a pair of eyes slowly became dull, and his expression was even stiffer in horror.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the witch's powerful divine sense immediately surged out, completely enveloping Ye Yuan in it.
"Hmph..."
The witch snorted lightly, endured a headache similar to hitting a wall, and continued to output, this time with mana.
After a while, Ye Yuan finally came back to his senses.
"What's wrong with me?"
Ye Yuan's expression was a little dazed, as if he had lost his memory.
The witch couldn't feel the attack anymore, so she dispersed her comprehensive protection against Ye Yuan.
However, he still retained a trace of divine sense, and always paid attention to Ye Yuan's situation.
"You..."
As soon as the witch wanted to introduce the situation, Ye Yuan remembered everything that had just happened.
I was careless!
Fortunately, a witch came to the rescue in time.
Thinking about the danger just now, Ye Yuan suddenly had a heart on his face, looked at the direction of the swamp, and even took a small step back "scared".
The witch hurriedly asked.
"What did you just see?"
