With a heavy heart, Mo Fan quickened his pace.
Heavens knew if the creature was still chasing after them, or if it was right above them. The poisonous miasma might be able to kill all living creatures, but it did not necessarily mean there were no poisonous creatures that could not survive in it!
Mofan felt something was not right not long after they set foot in the place. There was no way the organizer would place the treasure in a place like this. It was clearly a forbidden place where people could lose their lives.
As he thought, something had happened. The team ahead of them was dead. They were still hanging on the ground, letting their blood drip freely. It seemed like the creature lying on the surface of the lake was not fond of blood …
"Where are we now?" Mofan asked Tony after some time.
Tony turned around. His forehead was covered in cold sweat. His eyes were filled with fear.
Mofan immediately realized something when he saw Tony's reaction. He immediately asked Ayleen to use Brilliant Light to illuminate their surroundings.
Irene unleashed her Brilliant Light. Soon enough, the towering walls of the pond were revealed. Ahead of them was a spacious bottom of the pond, with a pitch-black rock in the middle of the pond!
Mofan was covered in goosebumps!
"Are you seriously leading the way!?" Mofan snapped furiously.
"I … I think I took the wrong path because I panicked. There are seven exits here. I must have taken the one beside it, but even if I did, we shouldn't have come back here! "Tony fell to the ground with a pale face.
"Let's go back!" Mofan said decisively.
The four of them immediately went back the way they came. After walking out of the python path, they walked in the direction they had marked before. They tried their best to walk to the southern foot of the mountain range from before. Only there, the poisonous miasma above them would be thinner. Only then could they completely leave this terrifying Dark Ravine!
This time, Mo Fan was the one leading the way. He had to rely on his memory of the path he had taken before. He did not fully trust Tony, so he had memorized the path before coming here. It should not be a problem for them to leave the Seven Pythons Dragon Swamp and return the way they came.
Their hearts were racing as they hurried along the way. After some time, the Brilliant Light once again illuminated the black boulder dripping with blood. The four of them felt like their strings were about to snap!
"We … we're back here again!" Ayleen stared at the black boulder in disbelief. Her voice was filled with fear!
"Keep going, keep going, why can't we get out of here? We have to make it out of here!" Tony said, "Even if we can't make it out of here, I don't want to stay here!"
The corpses of Kelly and the others were hanging on top of it. Their blood had most likely run dry. The blood in the stone basin had overflowed and flowed down the rocks to the ground like a spring. The sight was getting more and more terrifying after witnessing it a few times!
Mofan raised his head slightly. Even though he was unwilling to face the thing above them, Mofan knew it was meaningless no matter how far they went. They would eventually return to the same place. The thing that had killed Kelly and the others would not mind letting them go, as they would eventually return to the same place …
"Ayleen, raise the Brilliant Light slowly, don't go too fast," Mofan said to Ayleen in a deep voice.
Ayleen was panicking too. She bit her lips and followed Mofan's instructions. She used the Brilliant Light to illuminate the terrifying darkness above them …
The orange light slowly tore the darkness apart and shone on the bodies of the people hanging on the boulder. Their bodies were obviously a lot more shriveled than before, obviously due to the loss of their blood.
It was difficult to imagine how the students who were full of vigor not long ago would end up like this in such a short period of time. It was hard to tell what the organizers and the spectators would think when they saw this.
The light continued to shine upwards. At this moment, they could see that behind these corpses, there were many transparent threads that looked like woven silk. These threads hung straight down, and the ends were tied to the corpses …
As the light continued to rise, the strings gradually became denser. However, to their astonishment, there were still more corpses hanging on the boulder!
Most of the corpses had dried up, like Mummy. It was impossible to tell how many years they had been hanging there!
"Are … are they trying to make specimens?" Tony said with his teeth chattering.
Mo Chong didn't say anything. He knew that guy was definitely up there, between the threads that had been fished down.
"Something is moving!" Ayleen said softly when she saw something.
Mofan followed Ayleen's finger and saw a creature with countless legs between the strings. The creature's legs were like scorpions and spiders, scattered on both sides of its body. It was impossible to tell how many of them there were in the blur. The creature's legs were able to grab the strings with ease. If they could not see the strings, they would even think that the creature was crawling in the air!
The creature was crawling down. Its body was surprisingly similar to a human's. It had a sharp head, a muscular torso, and a long tail like a snake …
Most of its body was covered in poisonous scales. The combination of a human, a scorpion, a spider, and a python was a few times scarier than the demon beasts outside. Ayleen's scalp went numb and her limbs turned weak when she saw the creature.
"There … there's another one there!" Tony said, pointing at a spot close to the wall.
The wall was steep and straight. However, at the place where the light had reached its limit, a creature similar to the one that was crawling on the strings was crawling on the wall. Its eyes were dull, yet it was easy to sense the creature's greed and brutality. They could also sense the strong scent of death from its body, as if it had just crawled into the human world from Hell!
"Does … does … does anyone recognize this thing?" Tony asked.
Ayleen and Mu Ningxue had never seen the creature before. They had never read anything about it in the books, either.
However, the creature was able to wipe out the entire team in such a short period of time. It clearly indicated how terrifying it was!
"Mofan, I don't think we can take them on with our strength. I'll have to use the Ice Crystal Bow …" Mu Ningxue said to Mofan softly.
Mofan nodded.
