Two days later, Chi Xiao finally appeared at this place. His arrival meant that all the main characters looking for "Tianmen" had arrived.
The Dead Swamp is full of swamps of different sizes. These swamps have existed for thousands of years. Once anyone enters them by mistake, they may fall into them and be unable to extricate themselves, or even be swallowed by the swamps.
When we got here, the carriage could no longer move forward, and the carriages and horses of the Zuo family and Chen family could only stay at the entrance of the Dead Swamp. The group had no choice but to walk into this eerie swamp.
After entering the Dead Swamp, Chen Fan became taciturn, always alert to possible dangers. There are green swamps everywhere in the Dead Swamp, and colorful miasma floats above many swamps. These miasmas contain highly toxic and highly toxic substances. Once inhaled, they will quickly cause the whole body to rot and die.
In addition, the Dead Swamp is similar to the Dark Forest, and is also a place where monsters are rampant. The monsters here have already adapted to this swamp. They are good at hiding in the mud, waiting for warriors to suddenly attack when they pass by. A group of people must work hard to find clues to the "Tianmen" in this terrifying swamp.
Chi Xiao and Xia Xinyan were exploring the road ahead alone. Whenever they encountered a swamp, they would carefully choose their route and try to avoid dangerous areas.
As a strong man in the realm of melting the sky, Chi Xiao has extraordinary control ability, which is enough to deal with the mud in the swamp. However, even though he himself is fearless, he cannot ignore the needs of his companions. Although Xia Xinyan was able to reach the realm of merging with the sky after using the "Samsara Martial Spirit", she also paid a huge price for it. Every time she used the "Reincarnation Martial Spirit", it caused unbearable damage to her body.
Therefore, during the expedition, Xia Xinyan did not dare to use the "Samsara Martial Spirit" unless absolutely necessary. Therefore, she carefully followed Chi Xiao along the way, trusting him full of confidence.
In comparison, Chen Fan's cultivation level is the lowest among the team, and his understanding of the world is not deep. After entering the Dead Swamp, he became even more taciturn, always alert to the dangers around him, silently observing how Chi Xiao and others dealt with various dangers.
Not long after, Chi Xiao suddenly stopped and stood on a muddy wetland. He said seriously: "There is a three-mile-long green swamp ahead. We can't avoid it this time." He pointed to the distribution of the surrounding wetlands. He continued: "This swamp is the safest area, but everyone still needs to be careful. We have to take risks."
When Chen Fan heard this, his face became solemn and he began to carefully observe the swamp ahead. I saw that there was green mud everywhere, but there were some small patches of dry land in the central area. Although the area was not large, it was enough for several people to stand. Facing such terrain, they must proceed with caution to ensure safe passage.
"Those seemingly dry places may not actually be able to bear the weight of people, and may even make people sink deeper. Many such dry places are actually just floating on the swamp. Once someone steps on them, they will sink immediately. "
Chen Fan's heart tightened and his expression became more serious, but he didn't say much.
"Don't worry, I will test the place ahead first and find a really reliable dry land for you." Chi Xiao seemed to see everyone's worries, and said with a faint smile: "Just follow my footsteps and observe where I am. If you stay there, there won't be any problems. But some dry areas are small and may only be able to bear the weight of me alone, and may not be able to bear the weight of more people, so you need to proceed with caution."
“Ms.
There was obvious hesitation in Xia Xinyan's clear eyes. She was silent for a moment and then slowly said: "Mr. Chixiao, if you can deal with this difficulty alone, then everyone is naturally willing to let you help us overcome this difficulty alone. . But if I use the power of Melting Heaven, I will become weak afterwards. I prefer to use all my energy to deal with Yamata no Orochi instead of wasting it here."
After saying this, everyone felt that she seemed unwilling to contribute and did not regard them as companions. This made everyone feel a little dissatisfied, but they could not express it directly.
However, Chi Xiao didn't care and nodded: "Okay, let me do the hard work this time. But without Miss Xia's help, you must be more careful. Don't blindly settle down without my guidance, otherwise Once you get stuck in the mud, it will be quite difficult even if I want to save you."
Everyone nodded solemnly together.
"Okay, follow me." Chi Xiao took a deep breath, and his body as light as a floating leaf flew out first, firmly stepping on the nearest piece of dry ground.
However, as soon as his foot landed, the dry ground suddenly became as slippery as a loach and sank suddenly into the mud.
Chen Fan's face changed slightly and his eyes were serious. He suddenly realized that this exploration was difficult and he had to be more cautious.
Chi Xiao was not worried. He watched the piece of dry land sinking into the mud and said calmly: "Everyone has seen that this piece of dry land cannot bear the weight of a person. If you jump on it suddenly, you will only follow." The dry land sank into the mud together.”
As he spoke, his body rose into the air again and landed on a dry ground nearby. This time, the dry land was as stable as a rock, showing no signs of sinking.
"This area is safe." Chi Xiao said, kicking hard. However, his feet trembled, and the dry ground began to sink slowly.
"This piece can bear the weight of three people. When passing by, be careful not to have more than three people standing on it at the same time."
While explaining, Chi Xiao took off again and used the same method to detect the way forward for everyone.
When he flew a hundred meters away, Xia Xinyan slowly said, "You can go."
After Xia Xinyan finished speaking, her light figure landed on the dry ground that could bear the weight of three people as lightly as a falling leaf. She stopped and set off again, moving towards another safe dry land ahead, following Chi Xiao.
The two giant men following her rushed out without hesitation, stepping on the dry ground and following closely behind her.
Upon seeing this, Zuo Shi, Wu Yunlian and Chu Ping quickly followed and followed the route of Xia Xinyan and others.
"Master, please go first." Han Feng bent down and said to Chen Fan, "Please be careful."
Chen Fan nodded in response, followed closely behind Zuo Shi, and moved forward cautiously.
As they stepped onto the swamp, a faint sour smell filled the air.
After traveling for a mile through the swamp, Chen Fan discovered that green bubbles were constantly emerging from the swamp. Whenever these bubbles burst, green smoke will float out.
"Please be careful, everyone, this green gas is poisonous, do not inhale it." Chi Xiao reminded from the front, "Everyone has a high level of cultivation. It shouldn't be a problem to hold your breath for a short time. I will open a path as soon as possible. Please hurry up Follow me."
Chi Xiao explained as he walked, with a steady figure and sharp eyes: "This area is dangerous, that area can be temporarily settled, but please note that it can only bear the weight of two people, everyone should be careful..."
Chen Fan followed closely behind, his eyes never leaving Chi Xiao, remembering every inch of land he walked through, and not daring to slack off in the slightest.
At this time, he felt envious of the warriors of the Rongtian Realm. If he had the ability to fly through the air, crossing this swamp would no longer be so cumbersome and he could just jump across.
Chen Fan's desire for stronger power has become stronger, and he has become more and more yearning for higher realms of cultivation.
Under the leadership of Chi Xiao, everyone passed smoothly. Except for Chi Xiao, everyone else was relatively relaxed.
In this swamp where countless warriors had been buried, everyone had a safe journey without encountering any accidents.
However, just as they were about to walk out of the swamp, Chi Xiao suddenly changed his color and exclaimed: "Be careful! There is something strange in the mud!"
Before he finished speaking, three monster beasts covered in mud suddenly sprang out of the mud and headed straight for the dry land where Chen Fan and Xia Xinyan were.
This monster resembles a loach, with a row of sharp spines on its back, its head resembles a fish, and its teeth are densely packed like steel needles.
Three monsters emerged from the ground, two of them attacked Xia Xinyan, and the other one pointed directly at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan's expression remained unchanged. When the monster was about to touch him, he suddenly stretched out his right hand. The arm instantly turned into metal, and the Finger Spear Technique was quietly used, stabbing straight at the monster.
"Chi!"
The monster bit Chen Fan's arm, but was unable to penetrate his iron martial spirit. Instead, Chen Fan's five fingers penetrated his head, causing green blood to splash everywhere, and he eventually fell into the swamp.
"Puff!"
At the same time, two explosions came from Xia Xinyan's side. Chen Fan looked back and found that when the two monsters were still far away from Xia Xinyan, they suddenly exploded and fell into the swamp.
A sore and numb feeling came from Chen Fan's right palm. He frowned slightly, took out a soft cloth from his backpack, and wiped the green blood clean.
At this time, one after another monster beasts emerged from the swamp with green bubbles. There were about a hundred of them in total.
These monsters stared at Chen Fan and his group with hatred, as if they wanted to choose people to devour.
"Chen Fan, have you encountered the green blood of the green loach beast?" Suddenly, Chi Xiao in front of the team exclaimed.
Chen Fan gently wiped the green blood off his hands, turned to look at Chi Xiao, and responded calmly: "Is there any problem?"
"These green loach beasts have absorbed too much poisonous miasma, and their blood contains highly toxic substances that can corrode human skin!" Chi Xiao said angrily: "I originally planned to tell you after crossing this swamp, because There are very few green loaches in this area, and I thought they wouldn’t appear here.”
At this moment, an ugly, hairless man covered in mud slowly emerged from the mud. Half of his body was still hidden in the mud, and half of his body was exposed. He stared at Chi Xiao coldly and shouted angrily: "Chixiao, what are you doing here again?"
