Chapter 345: Heart of the Swamp
Jiang Ling looked back countless times along the way, but she never saw the shadow of her brother Jiang Yu, watching her shuttle back and forth in the Yinxue River, but in the end, she did not get out of the Yinxue River but arrived at the frozen swamp known as the forbidden place, her emotions had changed from the previous sadness to fear.
"This is a forbidden place, why are you here?"
Jiang Ling, who rarely spoke along the way, pressed the fear in his heart and asked anxiously.
For this girl, in addition to fulfilling her promise, Ming Qi was just a little curious about the sharp horn on her forehead, and it was obvious that Jiang Yu's brothers and sisters also had an untold story.
Stretching out his hand and pointing to the endless obstacle in front of him, Ming Qi replied quietly, "I have some things there, I have to go and get them back." ”
Ming Qi's answer can be regarded as not lying, he and Lao Wu originally came to hide the Heavenly Witch in the frozen swamp this time, as for meeting Jiang Yu to help him bring Jiang Ling out, it can only be regarded as an accident.
"It's dangerous in there. ”
Jiang Ling didn't ask what to get, just whispered.
Ming Qi spread his hands, saying that he was very clear about the danger, and did not continue to talk.
After a short rest, Ming Qi urged the Divine Diagram Space and penetrated into the frozen swamp.
The long evolution of heaven and earth through ancient times has made this place full of magic, and the clear boundary between the Silver Snow River and the frozen swamp is astonishing.
Behind you is the snowy Yinxue River, and when you step forward, you will find a swamp of jagged rocks and deep cement, a mixture of ice and water mixed with the thick ice layer on the rocks, and you will see a patch of mottled land.
The endless swamp is boundless, and here, if you can't fly in the sky, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch, and if you want to set foot in the frozen swamp, you must have at least four innate strengths.
Thinking of this, Ming Qi couldn't help but think of the origin of this Heavenly Witch Decree, the black-robed man who had obviously gotten some benefits from the Heavenly Witch Secret Treasure that day, indicating that he had taken the risk of coming, but according to his strength, he must have used some side secret method at that time.
In contrast, Ming Qi waited until this time to open the Heavenly Witch Secret Vault, which was not easy.
The swamp was filled with a thick mist, and when it flew out for nearly a hundred miles, Ming Qi discovered the problem.
Although the Heavenly Witch Great Order provided the location of the secret, at the moment, Ming Qi had a feeling that he was going to get lost.
Going to get lost?
Ming Qi was immediately annoyed, watching the light around him get darker and darker, and in the end, it turned out to be as dark as ink.
"I can't tell the way. ”
Ming Qi said helplessly, and at the same time, for the sake of prudence, he pressed the speed of the divine map very low, and advanced slowly.
Lao Wu smiled wryly, the big scene was over, but I didn't expect to be helpless by this little trivial matter in the end.
"It's the swamp eternal night, and if you want to see the light, it will be at least a month away. ”
Jiang Ling, who had been silent, suddenly said.
Eternal Night?
Ming Qi looked at the outside as dark as ink, and he didn't need Jiang Ling to explain it, he understood that the eternal night, that was naturally similar to the polar day and the polar night.
It's not fun to stay in the dark for a long time, not to mention the dangers that come with it.
Back?
Ming Qi didn't want to give up.
Unintentionally, Ming Qi was surprised to find that the sharp horn on Jiang Ling's forehead was constantly flashing.
Regarding the sharp corners on Jiang Ling's forehead, Ming Qi never asked, thinking that this kind of thing is not easy to talk about after all.
"Whatever you're looking for, maybe I'll be able to find it. ”
Without waiting for Ming Qi to ask, Jiang Ling suddenly asked.
"Can you find it?"
Ming Qiyi was overjoyed and said, "I don't know what the name of that place is, but I know that there is a big tree there." ”
There seemed to be a mysterious power on the Heavenly Witch Decree, through which Ming Qi could see some of the environment around the Secret Vault, otherwise he would not be so sure that the Heavenly Witch Secret Vault was in the frozen swamp.
"Big trees?"
Jiang Ling was stunned at first, and then his face changed.
There are basically no large trees in the swamp, and the vegetation is almost all moss-like.
There is only one big tree in the frozen swamp.
"That's the heart of the swamp. ”
Jiang Ling whispered his name.
Heart of the Swamp!
"The Heart of the Swamp is also known as the Frozen Eye, or the Frozen Plague, in short, it is precisely because of its existence that this swamp exists, are you sure what you are looking for is near the Heart of the Swamp?"
Jiang Ling asked a little apprehensively.
Jiang Ling's expression changed obviously, thinking about the swamp heart must be unusual, think about the thing known as the plague, no matter how you say it, it won't be much better.
But despite this, it is not possible to change the facts.
Ming Qi's answer was certain, and he could clearly see the location that marked the secret of the Heavenly Witch, which was under a towering tree.
"Can you determine the location of the Heart of the Swamp?"
Jiang Ling nodded.
Then she stretched out her finger and pointed to the sharp corner on her forehead, smiled unprecedentedly, and said, "Although this thing is not pretty, it is very wonderful." ”
"Good looking. ”
Ming Qi also smiled, and reached out to touch it, but when his hand reached into the air, he put it down again, deciding not to touch it.
Jiang Ling was right, the sharp corners on her forehead seemed to be able to discern the direction all the time, and even determine which direction a big target was.
With Jiang Ling guiding the way, Ming Qi accelerated the speed of the divine map and shuttled through the dark night.
During this time, Ming Qi finally had a general understanding of the origin of the sharp horns on Jiang Ling's forehead.
To put it simply, that sharp horn was equivalent to innateness, but it didn't show up when Jiang Ling was a child, and it didn't suddenly appear until she was fifteen years old and an adult.
It's just that Jiang Ling couldn't cultivate as soon as she was born, and even the simplest and most basic health cultivation mantra couldn't be used, which was why she looked extremely weak.
On the contrary, her elder brother Jiang Yu is a rare racial genius, who has already comprehended the essence of archery at a young age, and a bow and an arrow are really unmatched among the clansmen.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and fifteen-year-old Jiang Ling's forehead suddenly gave birth to sharp horns, and along with the sharp horns, there were many magical powers that made the elders of the clan and even the patriarch fearful.
Of course, the little Jiang Ling didn't know how to use these magical powers, and she could only protect Jiang Ling after her life was in danger.
Therefore, in the end, Jiang Ling was arrested as an alien, and because he could not be executed, he drew up the punishment of being imprisoned in the altar of punishment forever.
After that, Jiang Yu wanted to take his sister out of the altar of punishment at all costs.
Over time, Jiang Yu, along with Jiang Ling, was completely regarded as an outlier of the Ice God Clan.
However, one of the things that has to be mentioned is that Jiang Ling's mother is not from the Ice God clan.
As for his father and mother, Jiang Ling didn't reveal much, maybe it evoked painful memories, and he had become a little tearful person when he said this.
Finally calmed down his emotions, Ming Qi was very careful not to mention anything about Jiang Yu, thinking that now Jiang Yu is dead, his soul is scattered, and he has left no trace in the world.
The mystery of the Divine Diagram was once again manifested, according to Jiang Ling, the mist in this frozen swamp was unusually toxic, and even a monk could hardly resist the pain caused by being immersed in it for a long time.
But now there is a divine map, and naturally everything is not a problem.
Lao Wu pressed the sword and sat quietly, and did not speak, the unphased boy thought about it and fell into a deep sleep again, it is said that the divine map space has been quietly changing for a long time, and as a part of the divine map space, the power of the unphased boy has almost been completely drained.
However, in the meantime, the spirits of the two old men howled a few words from time to time, for no other reason, they were already a little unable to bear the stronger and stronger pressure, if they couldn't find their bodies, it wouldn't be long before they would be completely crushed.
It's a pity that it is more difficult to find a suitable body in this frozen swamp than to ascend to the sky, so Ming Qi simply ignored them.
The appearance of the two divine souls scared the delicate Jiang Ling a lot, but fortunately, Ming Qi directly said that these were his two servants, which made her gradually eliminate her worries.
"It's almost there, less than a thousand miles. ”
Moving forward without the slightest concept of time was really boring, and Ming Qi didn't even have the patience to meditate and comprehend the exercises.
It's as if they've been thrown into a small black room with nothing to lose, and if it goes on like this, no matter how powerful people are, they'll die of depression.
Fortunately, he didn't wait too long, and Jiang Ling finally confirmed that it was almost there.
The two of them cheered up and began to pay attention to the outside of the divine map.
A thousand miles away is not far, and the surrounding environment here is no longer the same as before, the eternal night, which was originally as black as ink, has become gray and dim to the extreme, but you can still see some things clearly.
Deep water, moss, strange rocks, icebergs, and even unknown monsters roaming in it.
In addition, there are even snowflakes floating around, but Ming Qi can be sure that this is definitely not as simple as snowflakes.
The sharp horns on Jiang Ling's forehead were still flickering, and circles of milky white light continued to drift out, merging into the surrounding air.
"Heart of the Swamp, I see it. ”
In the line of sight ahead, a scene that shocked Ming Qi was extremely shocked.
It was indeed a towering tree, if it weren't for the fact that he saw a trunk below that dozens of people couldn't surround, Ming Qi must have thought that this was a forest and not a tree.
What's even more bizarre is that this big tree shows a snow-white color, and the branches, branches and leaves are all snow-white, without a little impurity.
"It is said that anyone who is close to the Frozen Heart will never leave alive! ”
Jiang Ling said faintly, as if he was reminding Ming Qi.
Giant trees in the swamp, heart and soul of the swamp!
Ming Qi was surprised that there was such a magical existence, and at the same time, he was even more surprised by what was placed under the giant tree!
Under the giant tree, there are seven or eight pairs of crystal-white ice coffins arranged irregularly!
