Nighttime. The moon rose. In this deathly silent region, the moonlight was deathly white. It was as scary as a dead ray. At the same time, Xiao Chen felt a trace of danger. Without any delay, he quickly rushed out of the swamp.
It was faintly discernible. A faint black mist floated up from the mud and puddles. It began to linger around this swamp woodland. Xiao Chen was startled. He had already guessed that this was the miasma. Furthermore, it was very likely to be the most poisonous undead miasma in the legends.
Standing at the periphery of this region of death. He looked at the ribbon-like mist drifting about inside. Xiao Chen began to ponder. Could he make use of this place? If he could lure Zhao Lin Er and that brown-haired man here … …
"Ka-cha … …"
He heard the sound of the joints moving again!
"Ka-cha, ka-cha … …"
A white shadow swayed in the dusky swamp forest. A human skeleton actually stood up!
Xiao Chen was incomparably shocked. He hid himself at the edge of the swamp. He paid close attention to that skeleton that could move.
At first, the skeleton's movements were a little stiff. However, along with the crackling sound of the joints, the stooped body stood up straight and its movements became a lot more agile. It walked back and forth in the swamp. It seemed to be looking for something.
Xiao Chen held his breath and didn't make a sound. He continued to watch quietly.
The snow-white skeleton. Under the deathly white moonlight, it appeared eerie and terrifying. Especially when it could move freely, it appeared even more frightening! When it turned around to face Xiao Chen's direction. Xiao Chen looked at the skull of the skeleton. There was actually a faint radiance flickering. It was emitted from the sunken eye sockets. It was abnormally demonic and terrifying.
"Ka-cha, ka-cha!"
The sound of the joints moving resounded from the other two directions. Another two skeletons stood up in the forest. They walked past the muddy puddles and converged with the skeletons at the beginning. There was also a faint radiance flickering in their skulls. They seemed to be able to communicate with each other. Every time they looked at each other, the faint radiance in their eye sockets would flicker unceasingly.
Xiao Chen couldn't understand all of this. Were they ghosts? He didn't think so!
In the following two hours. No other similar skeletons appeared.
During this process, Xiao Chen kept hiding and watching. He discovered that the three skeletons were turning over the skeletons in the swamp unceasingly. It seemed like they were looking for something. It was a savage beast skeleton that was several meters long and weighed close to a thousand jin. To be able to be easily flipped over by them, one could imagine how powerful they were! Then, a skeleton rummaged through a pile of bones and found a shiny crystal. Xiao Chen finally understood what they were doing.
The skeleton held the crystal in its hand. It seemed to be very excited. His jaw moved up and down. "Ka Ba Ka Ba." There was a hint of humor in the eerie atmosphere. It attracted the other two skeletons to run over.
The three skeletons stood together under the pale moonlight. It seemed extremely awe-inspiring and terrifying.
"Crack …"
The light blue Earth Crystal was broken by the skeleton and divided into three pieces of roughly the same size. The three skeletons held a petal each and stuffed it into the cranial cavity. Bright radiance emitted from their eyes. Light blue light shone from their heads. It flowed towards their lower body like a stream of water.
The blue radiance made the snow-white skeletons look eerie blue. The gentle radiance quickly wrapped around the three skeletons. Only after a long time did the blue radiance gradually recede. The white bones seemed to be a little more sparkling and translucent than before.
Xiao Chen was very shocked. The skeletons were actually able to absorb the energy of the crystal. Was this a kind of unconventional evolution? It was just that he didn't know how they were produced in the beginning.
Under the pale moonlight. The miasma drifted in the swamp, the three skeletons were moving freely. All of this was so strange and evil!
Suddenly. One of the skeletons that walked to the edge of the swamp seemed to have discovered something. It suspiciously walked towards the huge tree where Xiao Chen was hiding. Xiao Chen was moved. He didn't retreat at this point, instead, he came out from behind the big tree. Facing that skeleton.
The skeleton seemed to be very perplexed. It turned its head around to look at the two companions behind it, then looked at Xiao Chen again. The weak radiance flickering in its eye sockets was flickering indeterminately, as if it was thinking about something. The other two skeletons also walked over. They looked at Xiao Chen with the same puzzled expression, as if they felt that this guy brimming with vitality was very "unconventional". Xiao Chen wanted to observe them from a closer distance, he wanted to see what kind of peculiarity they had. However, other than discovering that there was a mysterious power in the skull that provided the energy for the whole skeleton to move, he didn't discover anything special.
Suddenly, he had a bright idea. He took out a brown crystal he obtained from the beast's corpse. He held it in his palm. The eye sockets of the three skeletons. Immediately it emitted indeterminating radiance. At the same time, they stretched out their bony claws towards that crystal.
Xiao Chen took a step back. The three skeletons followed closely behind. They stepped out of the swamp.
They didn't feel any killing intent from the skeletons. Xiao Chen handed the crystal to them. The brown crystal was easily torn apart by them. It separated into three parts. After that, they stuffed it into their eye sockets. The brown radiance flickered. The radiance extended from their skulls to their lower body.
A burst of "Splat Splat Splat Splat" sound came from their joints. Looking at it from a close distance. The radiance was circulating on the skeleton. The three skeletons were as bright as jade. Along with the crystal's energy being completely absorbed, this kind of abnormality disappeared. However, their skeletons seemed to have a hint of luster compared to before!
One of the skeletons stretched out its bony claws and attacked the big tree at the side. With a light "Puff" sound, the snow-white bony claws were deeply inserted into the tree trunk. Even a small part of the arm bone was inserted into the tree trunk.
Just an ordinary attack was already so powerful. It could be seen how terrifying the skeletons were! Xiao Chen was very shocked, the strength of the skeletons was a lot more powerful than what he had imagined!
The radiance in the eye sockets of the three skeletons flickered, they stood in front of Xiao Chen and looked at him quietly. Only after a long time did their jaws open and close a few times. They emitted a "Crack! Crack!" sound. It seemed like they were saying something. After that, they walked towards the depths of the swamp together and slowly disappeared into the gloomy forest.
The skeletons were powerful and possessed spiritual wisdom!
Regarding everything. Xiao Chen felt a little inconceivable. He circled around this deathly swamp to observe. After walking for more than an hour, he discovered that it had an area of more than ten square kilometers. The gloomy atmosphere was dense and dense.
At midnight. The undead miasma was the thickest in the swamp. The heavy black fog actually blocked the deathly pale moonlight.
Only until the latter half of the night did the undead miasma gradually recede. It became thinner and thinner.
At the latter half of the night. Xiao Chen was at the periphery of the deathly swamp when he suddenly heard a violent crashing sound. It seemed like … … someone was fighting in the swamp! He ran around the swamp. He rushed towards the direction where the sound came from. After a short moment, he saw an astonishing scene!
