Volume 1 The Beginning of the Storm Chapter 11 The Fog of Mutation
Jun Mianchen went all the way, and he didn't know how many demon beasts he had killed along the way, and even the demon beasts that had built a foundation in half a step had touched one, and it took a lot of effort to kill them.
At this moment, Jun Mianchen walked to a large open space, where the aura was very rich, and the fog in the air was many times thicker than the periphery, faintly comparable to the location of the outer gate where they practiced.
Jun Mianchen found a place with the thickest fog and meditated cross-legged to restore the loss of aura along the way.
This sitting is a day and a night, Jun Mianchen opened his eyes, felt that his spirit had recovered a lot, and continued to fill his eyes with spiritual energy, looking around.
Further on, there is only a wide road, and you can go forward.
Three hours later, Jun had walked the wide road and came to a larger open space, surrounded by lakes with only a path leading to the clearing in the middle.
There are many small grasses with red veins growing in the clearing, and some grasses even grow under the shallow surface of the lake, like aquatic plants, which look very inconspicuous.
Judging by it, this should be Bai Gao.
Jun Mianchen picked one casually, only to see a sticky juice like lacquer flowing out of the branch, and in a few moments, the branch seemed to be reborn, and a small grass that was exactly the same grew again.
Jun Mianchen opened his eyes wide to look at this incredible scene, this Bai Gao, so magical?
Jun Mianchen stretched out his hand again and plucked the same grass again, and the sticky sap like lacquer reappeared, but it was much less than when he first picked it, and after the sap appeared, the branches appeared again with the meaning of new life, and after a while, an identical white gao plant grew.
Jun Mianchen saw it really this time, the lacquer-like juice contained spiritual power, and I don't know what principle drove this white gao to grow again and again.
But this second time the juice is obviously a lot less, and the spiritual power is even thinner, it seems that if he picks it again, this white gao will be completely depleted and cannot be reborn again.
Jun Mianchen secretly sighed that this world was magical, no longer obsessed with this white gao, waved his hand, and then took another one, and the three white gao were lying in his hands, swaying gently.
Jun Mianchen had a smile on his face.
"The task is completed, I have marked the way back, I can see clearly with my eyes, I will not get lost, count the days, it is now the twentieth day, it will take three days to go back, twenty-three days, the task is completed. ”
Jun Mianchen's right hand flipped over, and the three Bai Gao suddenly disappeared and appeared in his identity token.
This identity token was the first storage space that every outer disciple came into contact with, and when Jun Mianchen first crossed over, he was amazed for several days.
Just as he was about to leave, Jun Mianchen's expression suddenly froze, and as far as his eyes could see, he saw a corpse on the ground near the lake.
It was a half-step foundation-building demon beast corpse, this corpse was in a different place, and the huge blood-colored eyes on the head seemed to have the horror before death.
Jun Mianchen hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, walked to the place where the corpse of the demon beast was, squatted down and looked at the traces of the broken body of the demon beast, and secretly analyzed it.
"The cut marks are very flat, it should have been cut by a sharp weapon, but strangely there is not a trace of blood left on the ground, as if it was cut directly out of thin air...... Who is this...... How can there be such strength...... What kind of spell is this?"
Jun Mianchen was a little shocked in his heart, and once again took a deep look at the corpse of the demon beast, and was about to turn around and leave, but just as he got up and wanted to leave, he found a strange place in the corner of his eye!
"It's ......"
Jun Mianchen was a little unsure, thinking that he had seen it wrong, so he took two more steps against the lake, and his pupils suddenly shrank after seeing it clearly.
"What kind of fog is this!!"
In Jun Mianchen's eyes, he saw that the lake was filled with a trace of strange mist, this mist was weird, the whole body was gray and black, only a trace of it, wandering in the lake, eroding each other with the original aura mist in the lake, and even faintly gaining the upper hand!
There was even a feeling that the mist of the aura was going to be swallowed......
This mist is different from the mist of the aura, and it is also different from the air flow above the spirit tablet, it is something else......
Jun Mianchen is calm on the surface, but there are huge waves in his heart......
Until now, he had discovered three kinds of mist through his eyes, one was the aura, that is, the mist of the aura that usually existed everywhere.
The second is the air flow above the spirit tablet, and according to my own guess, the air flow is the source of the spiritual energy.
So what is this third kind of fog that has been discovered now? Is it a mutated fog? Isn't that a mutated aura?
Jun Mianchen guessed in his heart, but he didn't dare to draw conclusions, out of curiosity, he had been engrossed in observing the mutated mist in the lake.
After careful observation, it was found that there was only this trace of this mist, and after swallowing the surrounding aura mist, it did not become richer, but as if it had really eaten the aura mist, there was still only a trace of it.
Jun Mianchen squinted his eyes, staring at the whereabouts of this mutated mist, which was unconscious, but just drifting with the flow of water, from this point of view, it was somewhat similar to the aura mist.
"Perhaps, there are many kinds of aura in this world, and this thread may really be a mutated aura......"
Jun Mianchen thought so in his heart, but his eyes looked at the movement trajectory of the mutated aura without blinking.
After a while, the mutated mist slowly followed the current towards a white gao rooted in the shallow water area of the lake.
Jun Mianchen immediately became interested, holding his breath and concentrating, wanting to see if this mist would produce some strange changes when it met Bai Gao......
The mutated mist got closer and closer, and at the moment when the mutated mist contaminated Bai Gao, Bai Gao's entire flower branch swayed very strangely and crazily.
It's as if Bai Gao has life, and at this time he has suffered unprecedented pain.
The leaves and branches suddenly oozed the lacquer-like sap, but the sap was no longer the original color, but became a little gray and black, as if it had lost the ability to regenerate, and after swaying for a few breaths, the white gao actually withered and withered like this!
As Bai Gao's flowers and leaves withered and fell to the ground, this was a silent scene, but in Jun Mianchen's heart, it was like a hammer......
Jun Mianchen's face was frightened, he stood up violently, and retreated dozens of steps, like a thunderbolt in his heart......
"This ...... Here it is...... Where the white gao withered!!"
Jun Mianchen's cold sweat flowed down his cheeks, seeing this strange scene, and thinking of Li Xiangling's solemn warning, Jun Mianchen only felt that his confidant had just gone through a journey in front of death, and he had a feeling of the rest of his life.
Fortunately, he didn't rush to conclusions, and didn't try to absorb the mutated mist in the Zhou Tian method, if he did, maybe what he would become now, would he be like Bai Gao, withering?
"White Gao withered...... White Ao withered ...... It turned out that this white gao withered...... It's because of this mutated aura...... Xiangling said that this was what the Great Elder told her, so the Great Elder must know something, and the sect must know something!"
Jun Mianchen's face was cloudy, and the direction of the speculation in his heart was getting bigger and bigger, he faintly felt that the sect must have hidden some secrets, this Yucheng Cave, as Li Xiangling said, is by no means an ordinary C-level mission location!
"The Great Elder warned Xiang Ling not to go to the place where Bai Gao withered, this place must be extremely dangerous, but he allowed so many outer disciples to come here to practice...... What is the purpose of this sect, and why is there such a strange mutated aura here...... If this mutated aura flows outward with the flow of water......"
Speaking of the word water flow, Jun Mianchen suddenly stopped, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, as if he had suddenly grasped something.
"Water flows...... This is a dead end, there is only this shore in the middle, there are mountains and rocks on all sides, I don't feel the presence of wind here, so this lake should be stagnant water, why is there any sign of flow...... Unless ......"
Jun Mianchen's brain was shocked, and his eyes suddenly looked at the seemingly calm lake!
"Under the lake, there is another passage! It is connected to another place! It is possible to form a current!"
Jun Mianchen's expression was cloudy, and he stood in place as if he was sluggish.
"This mutated mist...... I'm afraid, it's from the other side of the lake!"
