The Firebird and the others secretly swallowed their saliva. They didn't believe that the miasma was as easy to deal with as Liu Qingrui said. One must know that the corrosive nature of the miasma wasn't something that an ordinary miasma could have. Although these people weren't disciples of big sects, they were still members of the Gold Spirit Trading Company. They were experienced and knowledgeable. Moreover, they had been doing assassination missions for many years. Therefore, they were very clear that this colorless and odorless but highly corrosive miasma was very powerful. Even a Qi Refining Realm cultivator would die in front of this miasma.
Now, they had a higher opinion of Liu Qingrui. Being able to discover the miasma itself wasn't an easy thing. If he wanted to use the miasma, it would be even more difficult. Therefore, they had a higher opinion of Liu Qingrui. Those who didn't trust Liu Qingrui before now had a change in attitude towards him. They no longer looked at Liu Qingrui with contempt like before.
The Firebird looked at Liu Qingrui and said, "Viper, how about you take the lead this time? If we encounter any poisonous creatures, you'll be able to find them as soon as possible. It'll be dangerous for us to take the lead. "
Liu Qingrui nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll take the lead. But let's make it clear, I haven't been to the Five Ghost Mountain before. In the past, I wasn't strong enough so I didn't dare to come here. Later on, when I was strong enough, I didn't have the opportunity to come here. Therefore, I'm not familiar with this place. You have to show me the way."
The Firebird quickly replied, "No problem, this isn't difficult at all. I'll tell you where to go." Liu Qingrui nodded and then walked to the front of the group. Under the guidance of the Firebird and the others, the group moved forward.
The afternoon passed by just like that. What surprised Liu Qingrui was that they didn't encounter any beasts. This made him feel very strange.
At night, the Firebird found a place and then took out a formation to set up a simple camp for them to rest at night. Liu Qingrui noticed that the formation that the Firebird took out was a pretty good one. It had both defensive and illusory abilities. Not only did it have a certain amount of defensive ability, it could also create illusions so that others wouldn't be able to discover them. Even if they made a fire inside the artifact, no one would be able to see it from the outside. On the contrary, it would perfectly blend in with the surrounding environment. It was very good.
After the camp was set up, the group made a fire and then sat by it and chatted. They didn't eat anything. Obviously, they were eating fasting pills.
Liu Qingrui sat by the fire and looked at the Firebird. Then he said, "Firebird, how come we didn't encounter any beasts in the afternoon? Are there very few beasts in the Five Ghost Mountain? "
The Firebird shook her head and said, "No, there are a lot of beasts in the Five Ghost Mountain. It's just that the beasts in the Five Ghost Mountain are used to living in an environment filled with Yin Qi. They don't like to be active during the day. Because of this, you rarely see them during the day. But during the night, those beasts would come out. If you're active during the night, you'll be in a lot more danger than during the day."
When Liu Qingrui heard the Firebird, he couldn't help but stare. Then he nodded and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder we don't see any beasts during the day. But it's also no wonder. The Yin Qi in the Five Ghost Mountain is too dense. If a person with low cultivation comes here, they would be in danger."
The Firebird nodded and said, "That's right. Because of this, cultivators who come here would bring some Yang attribute pills along with Yang attribute artifacts. However, there aren't a lot of people who use Yang attribute artifacts. This is because the beasts of the Five Ghost Mountains are used to living in a place filled with yin qi. However, they have a natural desire for Yang attribute artifacts. If a cultivator were to bring a Yang attribute artifact with them, then they would be attacked by the beasts." The Firebird nodded and said, "That's right. Because of this, cultivators who come here would bring Yang attribute artifacts with them.
When Liu Qingrui heard this, he nodded and said, "I think it's because the beasts have too much Yin Qi. They also need Yang Qi to integrate the Yin Qi in their bodies. Because of this, they would be very interested in Yang Artifacts."
The Firebird replied, "Perhaps. Nobody knows what's going on. However, there's a legend about the Five Ghost Mountain. It's said that the Five Ghost Mountain is connected to a place where the Devils live. This was because the Five Ghost Mountain wasn't like this in the beginning. Then one day, it became like this. Everyone said that it's because the Five Ghost Mountain is connected to a place where the Devils live."
When he heard the Firebird, Liu Qingrui's eyes lit up. He suddenly thought of a possibility. Could the Five Ghost Mountain really be connected to a place where the Devils live? If that's the case, then the Five Ghost Mountain might be a path that leads to a different realm. If that's the case, then wouldn't it be better for the army to go through the Five Ghost Mountain and kill their way to the other realm?
The Sea Exploring Sect has always been looking for a path that leads to the other realm because they want to conquer it. If the Five Ghost Mountain really was a path that leads to the other realm, then the situation would be completely different. They can kill their way to the other realm, and those who find this path would be rewarded with a lot of rewards.
However, he didn't show it, he just firmly memorized the information he received. He didn't say anything. The Firebird looked at Liu Qingrui and said, "Viper, I know that you're good at using poison. But in the future, you should come to the Five Ghost Mountain less. I heard that a Supreme Elder level ghost appeared in the Five Ghost Mountain before. Later on, it was besieged and destroyed by the Supreme Elders of the Blazing Flame Sect. Because of this, although a lot of people come here every day to adventure, there are very few disciples of the Great Sects. If the Deep Earth Sect didn't need the Ghost Ginseng, then they wouldn't have sent people here."
Liu Qingrui nodded and said, "Rest assured, we'll be a team in the future. Naturally, I'll go wherever you go. There's no need for me to come here alone. I'm good at using poison, so I need a lot of materials to concoct new poisons. But we're in the Merchant City, where all the items in the world are gathered. As long as we earn enough contribution points, we'll have everything we need. There's no need for me to personally come here."
"Hahaha, it's good that you think this way. You're right, from now on, you'll be part of our team. Naturally, you'll go wherever we go. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's take a good rest today and continue our journey tomorrow." Everyone nodded and then casually looked for a place to rest. Everyone often spent their nights in the wilderness. Because of this, each of them brought a wild animal with them to rest in the wilderness.
The next day, Liu Qingrui and the others got up early and packed up their things. They also put away the magic formation. Then they continued to walk towards the mountain. On this day, Liu Qingrui saw a lot of herbs. He wasn't polite and directly collected all of them. These herbs would be very useful to him if he were to bring them back.
After walking for an entire day, when night fell, they found a place to rest. The Firebird looked at everyone and said, "We'll arrive at the Yin Ghost Cave at noon tomorrow. We don't know how deep the cave is, and there are countless forks in it. It won't be easy to find the Deep Earth Sect. What do you think?"
A cultivator said in a deep voice, "I don't think the Deep Earth Sect will stay in the Yin Ghost Cave for too long. The Yin Ghost Cave is one of the places with the densest Yin Qi in the entire Five Ghosts Mountain. They won't be able to stand it if they stay there for too long. So I don't think we need to be in a hurry. Let's just wait for them outside. After all, there's only one entrance to the Yin Ghost Cave. They'll come out sooner or later, and we'll just kill them then."
When we get there, we'll kill them. "Upon hearing the Cultivator, the Firebird couldn't help but nod and said," Spirit Fox is right. Instead of going inside the cave to look for them, we might as well wait for them at the entrance. In any case, the information didn't say anything. Since they left, it means that they're still in the Yin Ghost Cave. As long as they're still there, we'll be able to wait for them. "
Liu Qingrui knit his brows and said, "What if the Intelligence Department made a mistake? Could it be that those fellows are following the Deep Earth Sect? "
The Firebird smiled faintly and said, "That's very possible. Viper, you've just arrived at the City, so you don't know much about the business. You don't know how powerful the Intelligence Department is. It's possible that some of the Deep Earth Sect's members are from the Intelligence Department. Therefore, their information can't be wrong. Even if there's a change in the information, they would immediately inform us. Therefore, you don't need to worry about the information being wrong."
When Liu Qingrui heard this, he nodded and said, "Alright, then let's do that. We'll wait for them at the entrance of the cave. However, when they come out of the cave, that's when they'll be most careful. If that's the case, then we'll have to be careful."
The Firebird said, "Spirit Fox, you're good at hiding your tracks. When we arrive at the entrance of the cave, you'll hide there. When you discover the Deep Earth Sect, you'll immediately come back and tell us. We'll ambush them on their path. That way, there shouldn't be any problems."
Spirit Fox nodded and said, "Alright, leave it to me. However, the Deep Earth Sect's members are all defensive. Moreover, their Earth-attribute Magic Techniques are very powerful. They have a large area to attack. If we're not careful, then we might let them escape. We need to think of a way to deal with them."
Everyone nodded. In the end, everyone's eyes turned towards Liu Qingrui. Liu Qingrui looked at everyone, then he smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry about this. Leave the ambush to me. If everything goes well, then we won't even need to do anything. We can just deal with them directly."
Everyone nodded and didn't say anything. However, those who didn't act with Liu Qingrui wanted to see how powerful Liu Qingrui's poison was. They were still worried about Liu Qingrui.
