Whoosh!
Lu An's figure moved forward in the swamp. His body was enveloped by an ice sphere with a diameter of one zhang.
Only with a thickness of more than one zhang could the ice not be destroyed by the pressure of the swamp. Even if it was destroyed, the cracks would appear very slowly, and Lu An could fill them up almost without consuming any energy. If the thickness was less than one zhang, the speed of destruction would become faster and faster. If Lu An chose to cover himself with a thin layer of ice, he would be instantly crushed by the surrounding swamp.
As the light shone and his perception spread out, Lu An arrived in front of one item after another, even if it was trash that he thought had been abandoned. It turned out that these things were indeed abandoned packages and bottles, and there was nothing inside.
After moving forward for about two zhang, Lu An didn't know how many things he had seen along the way, but he still didn't find anything that could be a resentment fruit. This made Lu An very puzzled. Could it be that resentment fruits were so rare in this swamp, or was it that … he was going in the wrong direction?
Lu An's search was maintained within a range of three zhang below the surface. Could it be that he had to go deeper, or even to the bottom of the swamp?
Lu An wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he moved forward for another five zhang. After still not finding anything, he finally decided to go down.
Looking down, Lu An immediately moved forward, and the depth continued to increase.
Three zhang … two zhang …
Whoosh!
Very quickly, Lu An arrived at a depth of three zhang. At this depth, Lu An already felt an enormous pressure, and even his simple movements were greatly affected. His perception was further compressed. Now, Lu An could only perceive a range of about two zhang.
In fact, even at a depth of three zhang, Lu An still hadn't come into contact with the swamp. However, even Lu An didn't dare to continue sinking. He remembered that Su Keming had said that there were living plants in the swamp, and he didn't want to encounter them too early.
Under the situation where his perception and vision were limited, Lu An could only move more frequently to search. During this process, he was very slow and cautious. In fact, he had been especially careful since entering the Death-Stopping Swamp. Su Keming obviously wanted him dead, which meant that there was indeed something in the swamp that could kill him.
Whoosh!
Something entered Lu An's perception. As Lu An moved forward, this thing also followed the flow of the water towards Lu An. This thing was very common, and Lu An did not pay much attention to it at first. But when the distance between them was less than a hundred zhang, Lu An's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he turned to look in the direction of this thing!
Lu An's speed was not fast to begin with, so he left a lot of space for himself. Therefore, he immediately changed direction and moved to the left to widen the distance between them.
Right at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
This thing finally revealed its true form. It was originally floating and surging like a bag of trash, but it suddenly spun rapidly, and in the process of spinning, countless long ribbons shot out in all directions!
This was especially true in the direction of Lu An. These long ribbons were connected to this thing, and they were actually more than a thousand feet long. The speed at which they advanced was even faster than Lu An's retreating speed. When the distance between them was about a thousand and five hundred feet, they caught up with Lu An!
Whoosh!!
The width of each long ribbon was more than two feet, exceeding the diameter of the ice ball. Countless long ribbons enveloped the ice ball, as if they wanted to completely wrap around the ice ball!
Peng!
Success!
The long ribbons really caught hold of the ice ball. Following that, countless long ribbons completely wrapped around the ice ball. The ribbons were three layers thick and three layers thick.
This thing's long ribbons had already wrapped around the ice ball, and were located at the two ends of the ice ball. The strength of these long ribbons was enormous, and in addition to the immense pressure of the swamp, it actually caused cracks to appear on the ice ball, from the outer layer to the inner layer, which was right in front of Lu An.
Peng.
Lu An looked at this crack, but his expression was very calm, without any intention of repairing it.
After a short moment — —
Boom!!
A red light pierced through all the long ribbons, exploding out with a deafening sound! Flames instantly penetrated through all the long ribbons, burning through the long ribbons within the swamp.
Immediately, a sharp pain spread throughout this thing's body. Two hundred feet away, this thing immediately released an extremely ear-piercing shriek! This shriek seemed to have exceeded the limits of hearing, causing Lu An's sea of consciousness to feel uncomfortable.
The speed of the flames spreading was extremely fast, following the two hundred feet long ribbons, it rapidly swept towards the distant thing. This thing naturally wasn't stupid, how could it not realize the power of the flames. It immediately abandoned the rook to save the king, and took the initiative to sever its connection with the front ribbons.
Peng!
In an instant, the long ribbons separated from the thing, releasing a loud noise. At this moment, this thing's entire body was left with less than six hundred feet of ribbons, it was much weaker than before.
The long ribbons were destroyed, breaking into countless fragments and burning in the swamp. This thing obviously didn't want to tangle with Lu An anymore, it immediately turned around and fled. Its small figure was extremely fast, quickly flying out of Lu An's range of perception.
If he wanted to catch up, he could only pursue at full speed. Lu An didn't do that, as long as this thing didn't dare to approach him, he had already succeeded. He didn't come here to train, but to compete.
Lu An continued to search in different directions. In order to find no Resentful Fruits in his direction, he even changed directions to search horizontally, but there were still no signs of any Resentful Fruits. According to Su Keming, Resentful Fruits would emit a dark green light, but other than the white light they emitted, there was no other light.
Could it be in the center of the swamp, or at the bottom of the swamp? Or … the number of Resentful Fruits was pitifully small?
After thinking about it, Lu An finally made a decision and prepared to search in a deeper direction.
Lu An, who was in the ice ball, began to sink, moving towards the bottom. As he moved forward, the ice ball around Lu An became thicker and thicker, otherwise, it would be difficult to withstand the pressure of the swamp outside. Finally, after diving for about six hundred feet, he successfully reached the bottom.
Peng!
The ice ball gently landed on the ground, causing a slight ripple in the sand.
The light of the immortal Qi illuminated the surroundings. Lu An looked at the surrounding scene, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
This place … was so messy.
The ground at the bottom was filled with abandoned junk, such as old metal boxes and barrels, broken pill furnaces and furnaces, as well as all sorts of metals and huge chunks of hard earth. There were even many places where these rubbish were piled up, and there were very few places where the real soil was exposed.
In Lu An's view, this place was no different from a rubbish dump. Could it be that Guang You Sect used this place as a place to gather waste?
But this was very unrealistic. This was clearly the resource territory of Guang You Sect, how could they treat it so recklessly?
Something was fishy.
The ice ball that enveloped Lu An had a diameter of six feet, and it was about five feet above the ground. Lu An sensed the ruins, and he felt that the possibility of Resentful Fruits being buried under the ruins was not high, and he still didn't see any dark green light.
But just in case, Lu An still decided to search. He saw that the ice ball immediately extended outwards, forming two ice arms that were neither big nor small. They pushed the rubbish at the bottom of the sea to the sides, and constantly searched for Resentful Fruits.
Rumble …
A very dull sound was heard, and Lu An's speed was not fast. He pushed the rubbish to the sides until he saw the ground, but he still didn't see any dark green light. After searching a large area, he finally gave up. After all, the possibility of finding Resentful Fruits was too low.
Lu An continued to move forward at the bottom of the sea, but he didn't continue to search. After searching in all directions for a while, he still didn't find anything. He determined that the Resentful Fruits had nothing to do with the depth, and it was very likely to be in the deeper parts of the swamp.
This was a competition of time, and his opponent definitely knew more about the swamp than him, and also knew the location of the Resentful Fruits. Although this was just a competition, and the result didn't matter, Lu An didn't want to lose.
Therefore, Lu An immediately moved towards the central area of the swamp, and quickly increased his speed.
However … before Lu An could fly far, a ray of light suddenly appeared, and instantly illuminated the left side of Lu An!
Lu An's eyes turned cold, and immediately looked to the left, only to see the power of thunder and lightning attacking him, completely blocking all his escape routes!
