Chi Xiao arrived two days later. As soon as he arrived, the main members of the Gate of Heaven exploration had all gathered.
In the Dead Swamp, there were thousands of swamps of different sizes.
Those swamps had existed for thousands of years. Anyone who stepped on them could be trapped in the swamps and be swallowed by them.
At this point, the carriages couldn't move forward anymore. The carriages and horses of the Zuo family and the Shi family could only be left at the entrance of the Dead Swamp. The group had to walk into the Dead Swamp.
After entering the Dead Swamp, Shi Yan didn't talk much. He was always on guard for any sudden danger.
The Dead Swamp was filled with green swamps. Many of the swamps were surrounded by colorful miasma.
The miasma contained deadly poisons, and many of them were very toxic. Ordinary people would rot and die very soon after smelling it.
Besides the swamps and poisonous miasma, the Dead Swamp was like the Dark Forest, where demon beasts roamed!
The demon beasts that lived here had already adapted to the Dead Swamp. They could often hide in the middle of the mud. When people passed by, they would suddenly drill out of the mud and attack the passing warriors.
Chi Xiao and Xia Xinyan were walking in the front. Whenever they saw a swamp, they would try to avoid it.
As a Sky Realm warrior, Chi Xiao could fly in the air, so he wasn't afraid of the sticky mud in the swamp.
However, it didn't mean that the others weren't. Even Xia Xinyan could only reach the Sky Realm and fly in the air after using the Reincarnation Martial Spirit.
However, every time she used the Reincarnation Martial Spirit, Xia Xinyan would also be hurt.
Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, Xia Xinyan didn't dare to use the Reincarnation Martial Spirit. Therefore, she was very cautious along the way, watching Chi Xiao leading the way.
Shi Yan's cultivation was the lowest in the group. His understanding of this world was also the shallowest.
Therefore, after entering the Dead Swamp, he didn't speak much. He was always secretly observing the dangers of the Dead Swamp and the countermeasures of Chi Xiao and the others.
"There's a three-kilometer-long green swamp up ahead. We can't avoid it." Chi Xiao suddenly stopped and stood on a piece of muddy wetland. He frowned and said, "The surrounding areas are all swamps, but this one is the safest. Be careful, we have to take a risk this time."
Shi Yan's expression was solemn as he observed the swamp in front of him with a frown.
The swamp was three miles long, and the ground was covered with green mud. However, in the center of the swamp, there were protruding pieces of dry land that people could stand on. Those dry lands weren't big, and some of them could only accommodate two or three people.
Between the dry land, some were dozens of meters apart, and some were only two or three meters apart. If they could keep walking on the dry land, it should not be a problem to pass through this swamp.
However, Chi Xiao's next sentence smashed his wishful thinking.
"Don't be fooled by the fact that those dry lands seem to be able to land on. If you really step on them, you might sink even faster. Many of those dry lands are floating above the swamp and can't bear any weight. Once someone stands on them, those dry lands will immediately sink. "
Shi Yan's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became even more solemn, but he didn't say anything.
"Don't worry, I will walk around in front of us and find dry lands that you can really land on." Chi Xiao seemed to have seen through everyone's worries. He smiled and said, "As long as you follow my footsteps and see which dry land I will land on, there should be no problem. However, some dry lands are very small. They may be able to bear my weight alone, but they may not be able to bear the strength of three or four people. So be careful. "
Everyone nodded slowly with a serious face. Even Zuo Shi, who had been relaxed all the way, was a little nervous. She was also paying attention to the dry land in front of them.
"Miss Xia, there may be some danger later. If you can use the power of the Sky Realm, can you help me?" Chi Xiao hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but look at Xia Xinyan.
Xia Xinyan's clear eyes behind the veil clearly had a hint of hesitation. She pondered for a while, then said, "Mr. Chi Xiao, if you can handle it by yourself, then it's best if you can help everyone get through this. If I use the power of the Sky Realm, I will be weak for a while. I want to spend all my energy on the Nine-headed Sky Snake, and not waste it here. "
Hearing this, Zuo Shi and Wu Yun Lian quietly frowned.
Everyone thought that she didn't want to help, and didn't treat them as companions. Thus, they were naturally a little unhappy, but they couldn't show it directly.
However, Chi Xiao didn't care. He nodded and said, "Well, I will work hard this time. But without Miss Xia's help, you have to be more careful. Without my guidance, don't take any risks. Otherwise, if you fall into the mud, even I will have trouble to save you. "
Everyone nodded solemnly.
"Okay, follow me." Chi Xiao gently took a breath. His body suddenly floated out, and he took the lead to step on the nearest piece of dry land.
As soon as he stepped on it, the dry land suddenly shrank and sank into the mud.
Shi Yan's face slightly changed, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He suddenly realized that this exploration wasn't as smooth as he had imagined, and he had to be more careful.
Chi Xiao wasn't worried. Seeing the dry land sinking into the mud, he said, "Everyone can see that this piece of dry land can't bear the power of one person. If I jump up, I am afraid that I will sink into the mud together with the dry land."
While speaking, Chi Xiao's body flew up again, and landed on another piece of dry land. After he landed, that piece of dry land was stable, and there was no sign of sinking.
"This piece is safe, but you have to be careful. It may be fine if I stand alone, but if there are more people, there may be accidents." Chi Xiao said, and then he gently stamped his foot.
As he stamped his foot, the dry land under him suddenly trembled, and then slowly sank again.
"This piece can bear the weight of three people. Be careful, when you pass this piece, don't let more than three people stand on it at the same time. " Chi Xiao explained, and then he flew out again, using the same method to guide the way forward for everyone.
When Chi Xiao flew out for a hundred meters, Xia Xinyan lightly said, "We can go now."
Then, Xia Xinyan's graceful body slightly swayed, and then she lightly landed on that piece of dry land that could bear the weight of three people.
After a short pause, she moved again, and moved to another piece of safe dry land ahead, quickly following Chi Xiao's trail.
The two towering giants that had been following her didn't hesitate either. After she jumped out, they also rushed out, stepping on pieces of dry land, and closely followed her.
Zuo Shi, Wu Yunlian, and Chu Ping also followed, following the route that Xia Xinyan and the other two had taken.
"Young Master, after you." Han Feng bowed, and said to Shi Yan, "Be careful, Young Master."
"Okay." Shi Yan nodded, and also jumped out, following Zuo Shi, and slowly moved forward.
Above the swamp, there was a faint sour smell in the air.
After walking one mile into the swamp, Shi Yan found that there were green bubbles popping up in the swamp. Once those green bubbles burst, wisps of green smoke would fly out.
"Be careful, this green smoke is poisonous, don't breathe it in." Chi Xiao's voice came from the front, "Everyone's realm is not low, so it shouldn't be a problem to hold your breath for a short time. I will clear the road as soon as possible, you all follow closely."
Chi Xiao said, but his body didn't stop. He swayed on the dry land, and said from time to time, "We can't walk on this piece, but we can rest on this piece. But be careful, this piece can only bear the weight of two people, be careful …"
Shi Yan's eyes stared at Chi Xiao without blinking, remembering all the places that Chi Xiao had walked on, and didn't dare to be careless.
At this time, he suddenly envied the Sky Realm warriors. If they had the ability to fly, they wouldn't need to go through so much trouble in this area, they could just fly over directly.
Shi Yan was more and more eager for more power! He was more and more eager for a higher realm!
With Chi Xiao leading the way, everyone was really much more relaxed. Along the way, except for Chi Xiao, who was a little troublesome, everyone was relatively relaxed.
In this swamp where an unknown number of martial artists were buried, everyone had been safe and sound. Nothing had happened.
However, when they were about to walk out of the swamp, Chi Xiao's expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed, "Be careful! There's movement in the mud! "
"Puff! Puff! Puff! "
Three demon beasts covered in mud suddenly drilled out of the mud, and directly rushed towards the dry land where Shi Yan and Xia Xinyan were standing.
This demon beast looked like a loach, with a row of sharp thorns on its back. Its head looked like a fish, and its teeth were as dense as steel needles.
The three demon beasts flew out of the mud, two of them rushed towards Xia Xinyan, and one directly towards Shi Yan.
Shi Yan's expression didn't change. Seeing that the demon beast was about to get close, he suddenly stretched out his right hand, and his right arm immediately petrified. He secretly cast the Finger Spear, and fiercely stabbed towards that demon beast!
"Puff!"
The demon beast bit Shi Yan's right arm, but it couldn't bite through Shi Yan's Petrification Martial Spirit. Instead, its head was penetrated by Shi Yan's five fingers, and green blood splashed out and fell into the swamp.
"Bang bang!"
Two dull explosions came from Xia Xinyan's side.
Shi Yan turned around and found that the two demon beasts on Xia Xinyan's side had suddenly exploded before they could even get close to her, and directly fell into the swamp.
A numbing feeling came from his right hand that was covered in green blood. Shi Yan slightly frowned, and took out a soft cloth from his backpack to wipe the green blood off his hand.
Strange demon beasts suddenly emerged from the green bubbling swamp. Roughly counting, there were actually no less than a hundred of them.
These demon beasts all looked at Shi Yan's group with hatred, as if they were going to eat them up.
"Shi Yan, did you get the green blood of the Green Loach Beasts?" Chi Xiao, who was in front of the group, suddenly exclaimed.
Shi Yan carelessly wiped the green blood off, and turned his head to look at Chi Xiao, and nodded, "What's wrong with it?"
"These Green Loach Beasts have absorbed too much poisonous miasma, and their blood contains a strong poison that can corrode people's bodies!" Chi Xiao regretfully said, "I was going to tell you after this swamp, because there are very few Green Loach Beasts in this area, and I thought they wouldn't appear here."
"Chi Xiao, what are you doing here again?"
An ugly, hairless man covered in mud slowly emerged from the mud. Half of his body was in the mud, and the other half was outside. He coldly looked at Chi Xiao, and angrily said, "Last time you stole my Green Lavender Grass, what do you want this time?"
