Chapter 62: The Swamp of Death

Wei Shaotian and his party have been in the mountains for several days, but they have always lingered. As soon as the treasure hunting team entered the mountain, they were trapped in a dense forest. In the dense forest, the shrubs are towering, the mist is pervasive, and there are snakes, ants, and poisonous insects. None of the disciples had reached the level of Dao Leader in cultivation, and they could not fly with imperial weapons, nor could they use the flying demon beasts in the secret realm, so everyone could only walk cautiously on the ground. For several days, they were unable to get out of the dense forest. After trying various methods to no avail, he could only let all the disciples who knew the fire attribute Dao technique use the fireball technique together, and the dense forest was burned with a fire, and then he walked out.

After walking out of the dense forest, a vast swamp appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The swamp was covered with a poisonous miasma, yellow reeds and weeds were intertwined, and the ground was covered with the rotten corpses of monsters and huge pits of silt. A gust of wind blew, and the miasma moved, and there was a rustling sound between the reed leaves, accompanied by the hissing of various poisonous insects from the depths of the swamp. Under the dim sky, the entire swamp waited for everyone to approach like beasts with their mouths open and ready to devour people.

It's a swamp of death, and everyone who enters it pays the price. The miasma in the swamp obscured most of the light, and the dim environment affected their vision, and everyone moved forward cautiously, and all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts rushed out to attack them unguarded" A yellow-green poisonous snake with flowers and colors hidden in a reed, the color of its body was completely consistent with the surrounding environment, a disciple passed by the grass, this poisonous snake suddenly spat out a letter and flew out, this poisonous snake is a third-order demon beast, it looks like it is about to bite this person's leg, if this bite goes down, this person will not die and be crippled. The disciple hurriedly dodged desperately, but he didn't expect that there was a slippery and soft mud pit where he landed. It was too late for him to jump up, he was directly swallowed up by the silt, and the others had the intention to rescue, but they were blocked by poisonous snakes, and the silt in this swamp seemed to have a strong corrosive effect, and in the blink of an eye, the person's skin made a sound of being corroded by the poison, and after a while, the disciple was corroded to death by the poisonous sludge in the scream.

There is a disciple, who is more astute, in order to avoid the silt, he picks the roots of the vegetation, and it was relatively smooth at first, which made him go ahead of everyone, just when he was complacent, a huge dry tree trunk beside him suddenly came to life, and countless tentacles stretched out from the depths of the root of the trunk to tie him up, and then a bloody mouth actually opened in the middle of the trunk, and the disciple swallowed it directly. A disciple couldn't bear it anymore when he saw the scene, and howled and wanted to exit the swamp, but in the process of retreating, he accidentally inhaled a few breaths of miasma, only to see him covering his neck with his hands in pain, distorting his face, widening his eyes and wanting to say something but unable to make a sound, and finally died unwillingly after struggling a few times.

Seeing that the treasure hunting team was losing more and more people, Wei Shaotian could no longer hold his breath, although it was not very difficult to walk through the swamp with his strength, but before he saw the treasure, the more people lost in the team, the more unfavorable it would be to the treasure hunt, and he had to reduce the casualties as much as possible. Therefore, he immediately stopped the pace of the team's advance, and he said to everyone: "Fellow Daoists, this swamp is a dead place, I have a suggestion to help you pass through the swamp more safely, I wonder if you can obey my command?" He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Jin Wuyan, obviously only Jin Wuyan was the only one who could make him jealous here, so Jin Wuyan's attitude was particularly important, Jin Wuyan said lightly: " Wei Shaotian, this swamp implies the technique of the five elements, if you want to use the power of the five elements to overcome each other, Jin can naturally help you, but in the distribution of treasures, the Shining Spirit Sect will naturally get as much as possible. Wei Shaotian was a little surprised when he saw that Jin Wuyan just made a fair request and agreed to help, but now he couldn't think about it too much, so he could only agree to it, and other people's opinions were directly ignored by him. Wei Shaotian said to the others: "According to Wei's observation, this swamp implies the technique of the five elements, and it must be broken with the power of the five elements, so it is necessary to cheer Wei to work together to overcome the difficulties. He arranged, "First of all, I will activate the Blazing Light Technique to provide everyone with a wide field of vision. Mu Ketu, first of all, all the Daoists who know the Wood Attribute Dao Art need to use the Tree Realm Regeneration Method to lay a wooden bridge on the swamp that can be walked on, so as to prevent everyone from being swallowed by the silt. Jin Kemu, on both sides of this wooden bridge, Brother Jin needs to use the metal technique to restrain all kinds of plant spirits attacking on both sides. Fire overcomes poisonous insects, and people with fire attribute exercises are required to cast fire spells on both sides to drive away or prevent the sneak attack of demon beasts. To overcome the miasma, it is necessary for the ancient junior disciple to launch the wind attribute exercise to blow away the miasma around him, and do not approach the safe area within the wooden bridge. The rest of the people are used as mobile troops, slaying the monsters that come in at any time, and at the same time are responsible for protecting the Taoist friends who provide the wooden bridge from being disturbed by the monsters. ”

Everyone saw that Wei Shaotian was thoughtful and didn't know everything, so they naturally had no opinion on his arrangement. With the cooperation of everyone, a safety zone was formed around a man-made solid wooden bridge, which temporarily protected the safety of the group, and under the guidance of Wei Shaotian's Blazing Light Technique, they slowly extended the wooden bridge while gradually walking along the wooden bridge to the edge of the Death Swamp.

During this period, Ye Luoxue took advantage of Gu Qingqiu's dispelling miasma to sneak attack him several times, but he was blocked back by Wei Shaotian, it seems that if he wants to kill Gu Qingqiu, he must have a chance when Wei Shaotian has no time to clone himself. Therefore, after failing a few times, Ye Luoxue temporarily shelved her revenge plan, and she decided to find a perfect opportunity to strike again, and strive to kill Gu Qingqiu.

After walking forward for several days and dying a few more disciples, the group finally walked out of the death swamp. Standing in front of them was a gray-brown volcano, and from the crater it emitted a multicolored light, and it seemed that this was the place where the treasure was located. Seeing that the treasure was in front of them, some people were already excited and eager to try, if it weren't for the strength of Wei Shaotian, Jin Wuyan and others, I am afraid that they would have already rushed into the mountain pass to seize the treasure.

Jin Wuyan frowned, looking at this seemingly ordinary volcano with a solemn face. Bai Feiyang originally looked like he was going to rush up to grab the treasure first, but after seeing Jin Wuyan's expression, he resisted his impulse, and he said, "Brother Jin, what's so special about this volcano?" Jin Wuyan didn't answer his words, but closed his eyes, as if he was feeling something, and after about a cup of tea, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at the volcano in front of him with surprise, and transmitted the voice to Bai Feiyang: " Feiyang, because I am a metallic spirit root, so I have a special sense of magnetism and gravity, and the volcano in front of me, if I guessed correctly, it should be a gravitational volcano. ”
