Originally, with the ghostly thing's divine sense, Lin Yi did not even need to go to the surface of the Five Poisons Swamp. He could just stay at the bottom and let the ghostly thing scan him. However, the Five Poisons Swamp's divine sense was too powerful. Ordinary people would be completely isolated, and even the ghostly thing would have to spend a lot of effort to go to the surface of the swamp first. Fo — —
Unlike last time, Lin Yi and the spirit bird were both at the Nascent Soul Stage. This time, it was much easier to reach the surface of the swamp. The ghostly thing connected their divine senses to each other, allowing Lin Yi to clearly perceive everything outside.
As expected, there were still two people standing guard on a tree branch not far from the Five Poisons Swamp. However, it was not the bald man and the black-faced man from last time. Instead, it was two other people. After clearly observing the appearance of the two people through the ghostly thing's divine sense, Lin Yi was stunned. This time, it was two familiar faces.
"Brother Yan Ji, those two bastards are too infuriating! There are still ten days before they change shifts, but in the end, they slipped away so early and forced the two of us to take the blame. Originally, it was already bad enough that we had to stay here for two months. Now, we have to stay here for another ten days. This is really infuriating! "One of them said angrily.
"Forget it, Old Guan. We have to lower our heads when we are under someone else's eaves. Who asked us to be new to the Dragon Boat Escort Agency? We are not as well-established as them. It is inevitable that we will suffer some losses. Just bear with it for now." The other person said with a gloomy face.
"Sigh … Thinking back to the time when we were at the Equal Heaven Escort Agency, the two of them were nothing in front of us. If they dared to give me face like this, I will slap them to death!"
"Hmph, if it wasn't for this unlucky Ling Yi, we wouldn't have fallen to such a state today. With no other choice, we could only rely on the Dragon Boat Escort Agency, letting those snobbish bastards ride on our necks and shit on our necks! Therefore, this job is perfect for me. I want to take a good look at the place where Ling Yi's corpse will be destroyed, and I can vent my anger! "
"That's right. It's good that this guy died. With us brothers guarding here, even if he didn't die, we can let Old Master come and deal with him. Once the jade tablet is broken, he can come at any time. Heh heh, at that time, we will have made a great contribution! "
"Contribution my ass. Do you know what kind of place this is? This was the Five Poison Swamp. Even deities would have to report to the King of Hell if they jumped in. How many lives did Ling Yi have? How could he possibly survive after jumping in? This Five Poison Swamp was opened by his family? Hahahaha! "
The two people who were talking were actually old acquaintances that Lin Yi had known since he came to the South Continent. They were old acquaintances who had conflicts with each other — Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan.
After committing such a shameless act of treachery, their reputations were completely ruined. Logically speaking, it would be difficult for them to continue working in the escort agency business. However, what Lin Yi didn't expect was that they actually turned around and joined the Dragon Boat Escort Agency. This Dragon Boat Escort Agency really didn't take the usual path. They would accept any kind of trash.
But thinking about it, they already had an evil cultivator in charge, so they didn't need more trash.
Lin Yi clenched his fists, and he wanted to go up and kill these two bastards. However, when he thought of the sensing jade token in their hands, he immediately retracted his killing intent. As the two said just now, once the jade token was broken, they would come at any time. If the West Mountain Old Sect was really attracted, it would not be a good thing for Lin Yi.
With Lin Yi's current strength in the early Yuanying stage, although he wouldn't be as embarrassed as before when facing the West Mountain Old Sect. But with his current strength, it was obviously too whimsical to face a giant evil cultivator in the opening stage. The final result could only be to escape into the Five Poison Swamp as before. However, in that case, the West Mountain Old Sect would personally guard the Five Poison Swamp and would never give him a chance to escape again.
What's more, Lin Yi had only just advanced to the early Yuanying stage, and his strength had not even been consolidated yet. At this time, it was absolutely stupid to go against the West Mountain Old Sect. After thinking about it, Lin Yi returned to the space below. There were still four words, the future was long.
Lin Yi stood on the high platform again. Because his strength had been qualitatively improved compared to before, the aftermath of the Five Elements Murderous Qi had no effect on him at all. Only when he was in direct contact with the Five Elements Murderous Qi, the effect was relatively obvious.
With the forcible tempering of the Five Elements Murderous Qi, Lin Yi soon completely stabilized his strength. However, even so, this kind of day did not last for a few days, because Lin Yi found that the tempering effect of the Five Elements Murderous Qi was becoming less and less obvious, and the speed of his strength improvement was far less amazing than at the beginning.
Lin Yi carefully observed the swamp above his head. Although he had the opportunity to encounter the Five Elements Murderous Qi standing on the high platform, the density was far less dense than in the middle of the swamp. The probability of encountering it was not very high. It often took more than half an hour to encounter it, and the key was that the strength of the Five Elements Murderous Qi at the bottom of the swamp was much weaker than that of the Five Elements Murderous Qi in the middle. The gap between the two could even reach more than a hundred times.
If he could stand in the middle of the swamp and cultivate, Lin Yi believed that the effect of his cultivation would be as amazing as at the beginning. Unfortunately, this was not realistic. If he wanted to stand in the middle of the swamp, he could only let the Spirit Bird carry him up. However, in that case, he would have to use his True Qi to protect the Spirit Bird, otherwise, the Spirit Bird would definitely die.
With Lin Yi's current strength, it was not a problem for him to protect the Spirit Bird. However, it was pure nonsense to say that he could still protect the Spirit Bird while cultivating. If he really reached the middle of the swamp, even if he went all out, he might not be able to survive for a moment, not to mention that he would have to sacrifice another Spirit Bird.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yi finally dispelled the idea of entering the middle of the swamp to cultivate. It was too dangerous to do so, and he could only wait until his strength had increased in the future.
As for what to do next, Lin Yi had two choices at the moment. One was to continue to use the Five Elements Murderous Qi to cultivate on the high platform. Although the effect was not as exaggerated as before, it was still much better than Lin Yi's simple self-cultivation.
However, in retrospect, since he entered the underground space, he had been in a state of extreme hard work. His strength had also jumped from the peak of the middle stage of the Gold Core Realm to the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Now that his strength had been stabilized, it was not impossible to continue to cultivate. He believed that it would not take too long for him to advance to the next level, but it was not enough to relax. In the long run, it might not be a good thing.
