Departure
Although the Quiet Swamp Forest was indeed infamous, it wasn't a place that would cause all races to feel despair.
Moreover, since Lord Mo Sheng had placed the first trial there, he must have taken a fancy to the training effect within. This also meant that even if one had a slim chance of survival in the Quiet Swamp, there would still be a path of survival.
However, there was still a portion of people who were intimidated by the fearsome reputation of the Quiet Swamp Forest. They no longer had any thoughts of trying their luck.
After all, the majority of the youths who came to the Myriad Demon City were outstanding geniuses from various races. There was simply no need for many of them to rashly enter the Quiet Swamp Forest for an almost impossible task. If they weren't careful, they could lose their lives within.
Furthermore, there were at least tens of thousands of people participating in Mo Sheng's disciple recruitment this time.
The Quiet Swamp Forest was already out of the neutral Myriad Demon Territory. Once there, the most dangerous thing wouldn't be the ferocious beasts, but the hidden hands of other races!
After all, every time one was eliminated, it was equivalent to eliminating a competitor. Who knows, they might even be able to make a small fortune.
"The Quiet Swamp Forest?"
After muttering to himself for a while, Qin Yichen's lips curled into an eager smile.
Within the human race, he had already seen all the outstanding youths of the younger generation. In front of him, he naturally wouldn't give up on such a good opportunity to grow.
Not long after Saint Mo Yao left, Qingluan came to the Flyer and invited Qin Yichen to travel with him.
Qin Yichen also directly agreed to Qingluan's invitation.
Currently, his reputation could be considered quite good. However, due to the shocking nature of the pills he took out, who knew how many gazes were secretly eyeing him covetously.
Moreover, the Quiet Swamp Forest didn't belong to the Myriad Demon Territory's neutral zone. Once they arrived, there would definitely be many jealous people who would make a move against him.
After all, if they could snatch the formula from him, it would be an extremely good thing for any race.
Qingluan was a young talent of the Sky-Devouring Cyan Marten Clan. Qingluan's strength was considered top-notch among the Venerables.
If he traveled together with Qin Yichen, coupled with the reputation of the Azure Sky-Swallowing Marten, it would be enough to deter many thieves. In this way, it would also save Qin Yichen a lot of trouble.
…
The next day, when the first rays of the morning sun tore through the sky and shone on the earth, the entire Demon City fell into an uproar.
Countless ear-piercing sounds of wind breaking resounded in the sky.
One figure after another whizzed out from the wide city gates like a swarm of locusts, flying towards the Quiet Swamp Forest.
Not long after, the sky outside Thousand Demon City was already filled with figures that blotted out the sky and covered the earth. From below, more and more figures were still whizzing over and joining this terrifying sea of people.
The great majority of those people were trying their luck by participating in Mo Sheng's first test. There were also many people who failed to meet the requirements and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to join in the fun.
"What a spectacular sight."
At the entrance of Thousand Demon City, Qin Yichen lifted his head to look at the seemingly endless sea of people and involuntarily sighed.
As expected of the Ten Thousand Tribes Continent. In just one corner of the continent, the news of a supreme expert accepting a disciple had already attracted so many powerful individuals.
Moreover, Qin Yichen could detect several obscure yet powerful auras from those figures that blotted out the sky and covered the earth. Evidently, there were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers among them.
"Brother Qin, let's go."
Qingluan softly chuckled and said.
Qin Yichen slightly nodded his head. Soon after, the two of them took a step forward and turned into a ray of light, flying in the same direction as the rest of the figures.
As Qin Yichen left, several figures also rapidly disappeared from the dark corners of the city gates.
Elixirs that could be used by the Ten Thousand Tribes had several other effects. In Thousand Demon City, due to the rules, no one dared to openly attack them.
However, the temptation was so great that even though Qin Yichen was accompanied by Qingluan, many greedy people were still tempted.
…
As Qin Yichen and Qingluan hurried along, they gradually left the locust-like group behind them.
In just half a day, following the sounds of fighting, Qin Yichen knew that they had already walked out of the Thousand Demon Territory.
Among the Ten Thousand Tribes, there were only a few neutral places like the Thousand Demon Territory. Furthermore, they could only guard their own area. Once they walked out of that area, the tacit rules would instantly crumble.
"In another hour, we'll arrive at the Silent Swamp."
Qingluan didn't pay attention to the sounds of fighting that could be heard from time to time as he looked into the distance and said.
To them, killing and seizing treasures was nothing strange. On the contrary, after staying in the Demon City for a period of time, the peaceful atmosphere made them feel slightly uncomfortable.
"Brother Qingluan, is the Quiet Swamp Forest really as terrifying as the others say?"
Qin Yichen also withdrew his thoughts and asked.
"The rumors about the Quiet Swamp Forest are not lies. Even if a Saint level expert enters, he wouldn't dare to say that he has absolute confidence in smoothly passing through."
Qingluan's expression turned slightly serious as he spoke.
"If even a Saint level expert can't escape unscathed, then how are we going to pass through?"
Qin Yichen furrowed his brows and asked doubtfully.
If that was the case, wouldn't this trip be a bloodbath?
Moreover, this wasn't like the sects of the human race that had protective measures when accepting disciples. As a supreme expert, Mo Sheng wouldn't have any compassion to protect every single one of them.
Those who couldn't pass the test didn't have the qualifications to become his disciple. Their life and death had nothing to do with him.
In this place, life wasn't much more valuable than grass. If one died, one died. There wasn't even anyone to collect one's corpse.
"Looks like brother Qin hasn't spent much time on the continent."
Qingluan smiled and said, "Although the Quiet Swamp Forest still has an incomparably fearsome reputation, our ancestors have already explored it countless times."
"The paths that our ancestors have taken have all been recorded and drawn on a map of the city. Therefore, it isn't difficult to find a safe path in the Quiet Swamp Forest."
Hearing this, Qin Yichen also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Indeed, the Quiet Swamp Forest that symbolized death to the small races like the Charm Fox Clan wasn't that frightening in the eyes of the top races like the Azure Sky-Devouring Marten. They had even researched a safe path a long time ago.
