Chapter 160: Into the Thousand Souls Swamp (Part I)

After less than an hour, the Moyu Light Spirit Boat slowly descended under Qian Ping's control. In this position, everyone could already clearly see the swamp of a thousand souls that was permeating a seven-colored light not far away.

Seeing this, the experienced Qian Ping resolutely ordered: "Let's all go down! We have already reached the ground." From now on, we must always be vigilant and try to restrain our spiritual power fluctuations and trek through the last area on foot. ”

"Brother Qian, don't worry, I'll understand. ”

Lin Quan and the other three nodded solemnly, and each took out a magic weapon and jumped off the spirit boat.

The four figures under the light body jumped to the ground one after another like spirit monkeys, and after Qian Ping took back the Moyu Light Spirit Boat, they quickly dispersed the formation, bent down and walked forward quickly. At this time, not only did they not cast any aura shields, but they also used the "Concealment Spirit" method to converge their spiritual power, doing everything possible to hide their tracks, and silently hurried towards it.

According to Qian Ping's introduction, within a hundred miles from here, it is already an area that belongs to the "Thousand Souls Swamp". Here you will often encounter treasure hunters who enter the Thousand Souls Swamp to hunt demon beasts or search for various spirit grasses, and in order not to attract the attention of other monks or demon beasts, they must hide their tracks as much as possible. Therefore, although the "Hidden Soul Technique" will consume some spiritual power, it is the best choice at this time. After all, everyone's goal was only for the injured armadillo, and the spiritual power could not be consumed on ordinary demon beasts casually. Once the spiritual power is exhausted in this swamp of thousand souls full of demon beasts, then the fall will be an inevitable end.

Under the leadership of Qian Ping, a guide who was familiar with the road conditions, it only took less than half an hour for everyone to successfully reach the edge of the Thousand Souls Swamp. During this time, I did not encounter any monsters or human monks.

"Whew, the time seems to be just right, now let's rest in place first. Qian Ping first looked at the seven-colored miasma not far away, then looked up at the sky again, and then stopped first and casually found a flat place to sit down cross-legged.

Then he turned his head to Lin Quan and the others: "Everyone, please see, the brightly colored and blurry seven-colored light mask in the distance is the most famous 'Thousand Soul Miasma' outside the Thousand Souls Swamp. This 'Thousand Souls Miasma' is different from ordinary swamp miasma, it is not only more toxic, but also has the effect of psychedelic minds. Therefore, even if you take the 'Miasma Avoiding Pill', you should not be careless, and the safest and most labor-saving way is to wait until the sun goes down to quickly pass through. ”

"Oh, it turns out that this is the famous 'Thousand Souls Miasma'. I really didn't expect its coverage to be so large, it looks like it must have enveloped the entire Thousand Souls Swamp. Lin Quan did not sit down to rest, but carefully paced forward a few steps and observed the seven-colored light mask with interest.

As early as when he learned that the target of this trip was a dangerous place like the Thousand Souls Swamp, Lin Quan had already made up for some common sense about this swamp, and this notorious Thousand Souls Miasma had been mentioned in many classics, and now he certainly had to observe it carefully when he saw his true face.

"Yes, but all miasma is a natural poison formed by the mixture of countless poisons in the swamp over a long period of time. The miasma of the Thousand Souls Swamp has a unique and unknown psychedelic poisonous gas, and when they are exposed to the severe exposure of the sun, they will produce a special ecstasy characteristic. It is said that even the predecessors of the condensation stage could not resist this miasma by their own cultivation alone. Qian Ping knew this very well, and explained the characteristics of the Thousand Souls Miasma in just a few simple words. After finishing speaking, he suddenly slapped his forehead, took out a delicate small jade bottle casually, poured out seven fragrant pills, and said to everyone: "By the way, do you have any preparations for 'avoiding miasma pills'? If not, Qian Mou happens to have a bottle of high-quality miasma avoidance pills here, you can take them as you like." ”

"Huh, what is this scent...... Could it be that this is the 'Pure Heart Jade Spiritual Pill' unique to the 'Elixir Mountain'?" Qian Ping took out the elixir and didn't know what kind of treasure it was, as soon as he left the jade bottle, it emitted a burst of tempting fragrance, and Fairy Yin, who was closest to it, sniffed his nose a little and immediately showed a look of surprise.

"Yes, Fairy Yin really deserves to be a person who is proficient in the Dan Dao. Unexpectedly, the origin of this pill can be distinguished by the fragrance alone, Qian is really admired. Qian Ping praised Fairy Yin without a trace, and then took one for himself, and then he spread his palms and said very complacently: "This 'Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pill' is indeed a special elixir made by the 'Spirit Medicine Mountain'. It can not only avoid poison and miasma, but also has the effect of clearing the heart and refreshing the mind, which is the best elixir to deal with this thousand soul miasma. Come, give each of you two pieces. ”

"Great! Originally, the foolish couple was still worried about this thousand soul miasma, but now they don't have to worry about it anymore. Fairy Yin chuckled, stretched out her jade hand and took four pills, and after a little discrimination, she took one without hesitation.

"Thank you, Brother Qian, Qiu is ashamed. Qiu Daoyou also took it with confidence after receiving the vague look from Fairy Yin on behalf of safety.

"It's just a few 'miasma avoidance pills', and you can't help but see too much. Qian Ping didn't care, he put the last two pills into Lin Quan's hand and said, "Senior Brother Lin, you can also take it quickly, this pill can maintain the miasma avoidance effect for twelve hours after taking one pill." When the drug is sufficiently dissolved, we can start work. ”

"Senior Brother Qian, the Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pill is so precious...... Well, thank you, little brother. Lin Quan originally wanted to excuse himself, but when he saw Qian Ping's disgusted eyes, he had to nod and accept it.

In fact, when it came to this Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pill, Lin Quan might be more familiar than everyone present. Three months ago, when he learned about the Thousand Souls Swamp, he deliberately went to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to copy several necessary miasma avoidance and detoxification pills, and one of them happened to record the refining method of this famous pure heart jade spirit pill. In line with the idea of being prepared, Lin Quan immediately refined several bottles by himself.

However, just as Lin Quan was about to take this pill, he faintly noticed that the fragrance emitted by this Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pill seemed to be mixed with a trace of a very subtle fragrance. This kind of strange fragrance is extremely faint and very faint, if it weren't for someone like Lin Quan, who is extremely familiar with the Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pill, he wouldn't be able to notice it at all.

After staring at these two pills for a while, a strange light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then Lin Quan quietly put these two pills into the Taiji space when he turned around, and then quickly took out two self-refining Pure Heart Jade Spirit Pills and swallowed them.

..................

When the sun had completely set, the four figures passed through the seven-colored Thousand Souls Miasma and entered the swamp.

The Thousand Souls Swamp is very weird. Lin Quan and Qiu, who entered this place for the first time, felt particularly profound. Because ordinary swamps are generally silent, gray and black are always the main colors. The Thousand Souls Swamp is the opposite, although there are countless bottomless mud traps on the ground that can swallow everything in an instant, but there are many lush and tall dense forests growing around it, and it feels like a perfect combination of swamp and jungle.

The swamp on the ground was not a difficult task for immortal cultivators like Lin Quan, and they were not afraid of falling into the bottomless mud after using the Wind Resisting Technique, who were as light as a swallow. As for the lone low-level demon beasts that came out to hunt in the peripheral area, they would not be bothered by anything, and the four of them joined forces to bring all the four directions of the front, back, left and right into the maximum exploration range of the spiritual sense. Coupled with the leadership of Qian Ping, an experienced person, the four of them had already gone deep for several miles with little effort, and if they encountered a large number of demon beasts along the way, they chose to try their best to avoid them, and if they were alone, they would quickly kill them. The journey was also very smooth.

But after they had been deep into the swamp for more than an hour, a new trouble arose.

This kind of trouble does not refer to all kinds of powerful demon beasts, but to those ubiquitous poisonous natives. Although these aborigines are just common poisonous insects, there are too many of them. Without the protection of the spiritual power shield, even if they were the monks of the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, it would be very troublesome if they were bitten by it. However, in order to hide their tracks and save the loss of spiritual power, the four of them did not dare to bless the shield. As a result, it took a lot of effort to guard against these highly toxic aborigines. Fortunately, because there were many people, they finally crossed without danger under the care of each other.

Danger always comes with opportunity. Although they suffered a lot along the way, the harvest of the four people was also good. In just over two hours, everyone had captured a lot of spirit grass, ores, and demon beast materials unique to the Thousand Soul Swamp. Lin Quan was even more smiling, because there were many seedlings of the spirit flowers and spirit grasses of the swamp Tehu in his Tai Chi space. It's no wonder that Qian Ping and the three of them are only interested in valuable spiritual objects, and they are not at all interested in the spirit grass seedlings that can't sell a few spirit stones. He roughly counted them, and found that the auxiliary spirit grass that he wanted to refine the "Guardian Yuan Pill" had actually been found, and even the spirit grass that refined the "Condensing Pill" was only one type missing. This huge harvest couldn't help but make him happy.
