The sky in the Drowning Swamp was always gloomy, making it impossible to see far away.
After Young Master Ye and his wife took the Ghost King Pill, the others gathered in a group and chatted in private, trying to guess what the pill's effect was. After chatting for a while, they saw Zhou Qingfeng walking back alone. Fan Wan 'er was delighted and wanted to take this opportunity to ask a few questions, but Zhou Qingfeng shouted first, "Look, there's something approaching us."
Following Zhou Qingfeng's finger, a shadow was moving outside the island, but it was hard to see clearly from afar. It was Fan Wan 'er and the others' first time here, so they all frowned. They asked Second Young Master Ye, and he volunteered to go out and take a look. After a while, he ran back in panic and shouted, "Oh no, the ghosts of the Drowning Swamp are coming for us."
As the shadow on the periphery approached, Zhou Qingfeng could see clearly that they were strange-looking water ghosts and mud monsters. He immediately mounted Dog Meat's back and covered himself in armor. The others also got ready for battle. When Young Master Ye and his wife came back from their discussion, they found that the situation was really not right.
"Don't panic, we'll be fine once we leave this place. The monsters in the different areas of the Onigami won't wander around. "Young Master Ye led his horse to the tunnel of light to leave the Drowning Swamp. Fan Wan 'er walked to his side with some fear and asked, "What's on the other side of the tunnel?"
More and more ghosts gathered from the periphery of the island. Although each of them wasn't powerful, hundreds or thousands of them could easily exhaust Zhou Qingfeng and the others to death. No matter how powerful a cultivator was, his spiritual power, talismans, and artifacts all had their limits.
Everyone gathered around the tunnel of light, but Young Master Ye stared at the light without saying a word. Yue Shusheng, who was his follower, asked angrily, "Brother Ye, what's going on? If we don't act now, we'll be surrounded. "
"The other side seems to be the Frozen Plain, but also the Thousand Corpse Cave," Young Master Ye said uncertainly, "This has never happened before."
No one understood what it meant, but the wall of light that separated the two areas of the Onigami flashed violently in a few seconds. Everyone was shocked. They retreated and asked loudly what was going on. This time, Young Master Ye also understood. He could only say that everyone should be careful.
Even Zhou Qingfeng couldn't help but feel uneasy as the horde of ghosts was closing in on him. He hurriedly cast a few defensive and supportive spells on himself. After a dozen or so breaths, the wall of light and shadow suddenly burst open, and the view in front of them suddenly widened, followed by a bone-chilling wind blowing from the opposite side.
Zhou Qingfeng's armor was made of steel. When the cold wind blew, a thick layer of ice formed on the surface of his armor, freezing him half to death. Fan Wan 'er's clothes fluttered in the wind. She didn't seem to be afraid of the cold, but when the cold wind blew on her, she screamed and shivered in front of everyone.
The others didn't have it any better, and they all used cold resistance spells or talismans to protect themselves. When they were ready, they looked into the tunnel and saw a huge frozen cave on the other side. White tornadoes with ice particles swirled around the cave. Even the Drowning Swamp was frozen into a world of ice and snow. The water ghosts and mud monsters on the periphery were all frozen.
Before Zhou Qingfeng and the others could figure out what was going on, a group of people suddenly ran over from the direction of the frozen cave. They were all covered in ice, and their hair was white. When they saw the dazed Young Master Ye, they laughed and said, "Hahaha … Look! There are a few more here to die. We don't even know what happened. "
The group of people who suddenly appeared shouted and quickly approached Zhou Qingfeng and the others. Young Master Ye wanted to ask what was going on, but when he saw the other party's ferocious gaze and ferocious expression, he hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, be careful. These people don't come with good intentions."
As they got closer, Zhou Qingfeng saw that the group of people in front of them were all injured. The leader had a black scar on his face that was so deep that his bones could be seen. They were slightly fewer in number. When they saw that Young Master Ye and the others were on their guard, they shouted, "Fellow cultivators, please do us a favor. Give us some pills and talismans so that we can fight together."
"Fight? Where is the enemy? " Young Master Ye drew out a sword in his hand and shouted, "Don't deceive me. I'm Ye Xianggao from the Ye family in Liaodong. I've been to this Onigami for more than a dozen times. I'm very familiar with this place."
"Damn it, we're going to die. Who has the mood to deceive you?" The group of people on the opposite side clamored, "So what if you're from the Ye family in Liaodong? You'll be the same as us after entering the Onigami."
During the noise, the confrontation between the two sides became more and more serious. The people on the opposite side were like hungry wolves who were injured in the winter. In order to survive, they dared to attack any powerful opponent. At this time, a lot of people stumbled over from the direction of the frozen cave. Like the previous group, they were all injured, tired, and frightened.
The number of people gathered on this small swamp island immediately rose to more than 20. However, this was not the end. More and more people continued to flee. All kinds of people were in a sorry state, and some were even cursing and cursing. In the end, there were more than 100 cultivators gathered on this foothold the size of a football field.
These cultivators were either in tattered clothes or had bloody wounds; they looked fierce and stamped their feet with swords; or they were dying and fell to the ground. This time, no one cared about Young Master Ye's group of seven. They didn't dare to talk or even ask what happened. They could only listen to the complaints of these escaped cultivators with uneasy expressions.
More than 100 cultivators were divided into more than 20 groups. After they took a little breath and stabilized their position, one person stood up and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Fellow Daoists, please calm down. I'm Jia Gang. I believe many of you know me. Today, we've encountered a great disaster and are trapped in this Onigami. We should let go of the past and work together to survive. If we're still in a state of disunity, none of us will survive. "
Someone in the crowd immediately scolded, "Jia, you're making it sound nice. Who knows if you're in cahoots with the Ice Phoenix? I heard that phoenix greeting you with my own ears and thanking you for saving her. Isn't it because of you that our brothers are trapped here? "
Hearing the name 'Jia Gang', Zhou Qingfeng rode on the wolf's back and looked into the distance. The ghost cultivator standing more than 20 meters away was his old friend. In just two months, Jia Gang's cultivation had leaped to the fourth level of Qi and Blood Realm. His pale face was even more frightening, and behind him was a stupid and black zombie.
Standing on a stone, Jia Gang sneered and said, "Everyone, I know some people hate me. But I didn't force you to come to Onigami to seek opportunities. You came here after hearing the news. Now you're in trouble and blame me? Ice Phoenix didn't need to thank me. She needed to thank another stinking brat. When Ice Phoenix broke the Icebound Plain and integrated the Thousand Corpse Cave, she showed no mercy to me. "
"Then what should we do now?" The man asked again, "Now we can't get out of Onigami. More than a dozen areas in the outer layer will be controlled by Ice Phoenix. This Drowning Swamp is the last safe place. That damn phoenix wants to catch us and turn us into ice ghosts to be her subordinates. Are we just going to sit back and wait for death? "
Jia Gang immediately shouted, "There's only one way now. We can either rely on the Yehe Tribe or the Jianzhou Tribe. Only by relying on those masters can we survive. "
"Surnamed Jia, are you f * cking asking us to die?" The man scolded again, "The people of Yehe and Jianzhou Tribe have entered the second layer of Onigami. Even if we want to go now, we will be blocked in the Thousand Corpse Cave. Just now, we went to fight the ghost king. Look at how badly we are injured and killed now. You still don't want to give up? "
"That's because we were not united just now. We all wanted to see others die and take advantage of them. That ghost king is only at the seventh level of Qi and Blood Realm. With so many of us, we can definitely beat it back. " Jia Gang was also angry and shouted, "You all want others to die, but in the end, you all have to die."
Jia Gang's words caused a burst of discussion. Some people agreed, and some people refuted. Only Young Master Ye's group of seven knew the news. They looked at each other. Especially Young Master Ye and his wife looked at each other for a long time. The little lady unconsciously reached out to touch the porcelain bottle in her pocket and nodded slightly to her husband.
However, in this tense atmosphere, the careful action of the couple was still seen by other people in the team. Even Zhou Qingfeng saw the little lady's seemingly ordinary but conspicuous action. At the moment, Zhou Qingfeng was also in trouble. He even released four wolf pups to lurk everywhere to ensure that he collected enough information.
"Little Brother Zhou, now that the chaos has been formed, can you take care of me?" A voice suddenly came to Zhou Qingfeng's ears. It was Fan Wan'er's secret conversation at close range.
Zhou Qingfeng turned his head slightly and saw that Fairy Fan was talking to Yue Shusheng, who had been sticking to her. He smiled calmly and also secretly transmitted his voice, "Miss Fan, you should find someone else. I am young and weak, so I can't be relied on."
"Pfft …" Fan Wan'er actually laughed, "I said that there is really something wrong with you, little devil. Whose child can be as slippery as you? But now we are in the same boat. Don't tell me you want to break through the difficulties in front of you alone? "
"What do you want to say?"
"I just want to ask, are you willing to join hands with me? I have at least three people here, and Taoist Yue is also willing to help me. I may be able to pull the second young master of the Ye Family over. If you are added … "
"Don't count me in." Zhou Qingfeng immediately refused, "Although Ye Xianggao is a little stupid, he is familiar with Onitsuka, so he is much better than you, who is here for the first time. Besides, I don't like a cunning woman like you. The little lady of the Ye Family is more to my taste. "
After that, Zhou Qingfeng rode the giant wolf and approached Young Master Ye and his wife. Fan Wan'er looked back at him fiercely. The woman whispered to Yue Shusheng in front of her, "This kid is not willing to join us."
Yue Shusheng waved the fan in his hand and said disdainfully, "A silly boy at the second level of Divine Soul who has cultivated the wrong path. It doesn't matter whether he has it or not."
"It's hard to say …" Fan Wan'er shook her head slightly and said, "Others see that I am also at the second level of Qi and blood, but do I really only have this little cultivation?"
"Fairy has a special magic weapon to hide, how can he have it?"
"You can't even figure out his origin, how do you know he doesn't have it? I originally just came to explore the way for Master, but now there is a big change in Onitsuka. All kinds of powerful cultivators have broken in, and Ice Phoenix is making trouble. If we don't take advantage of the situation to enter the second level of Onitsuka, it will be a waste. "
