In polar marsh.
After Xiao Qianhan and the rest entered, they went all the way in without stopping at all. Their target was very clear, and that was the heavenly rejuvenation.
The place was sparsely populated. After walking for three days and three nights, they had only encountered a few waves of people who were hunting magical beasts. He didn't encounter any of the people that came in to search for treasures. Right now, they had already stepped into the true central region of marshland, and there was not a single person around them.
Not only that, but the number of magical beasts here was much lower than in the outer regions.
On the very first day they entered the marshland, a low ranking magical beasts had already begun to appear in the surrounding area, and the amount was extremely large. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he would encounter one with every step he took. At this point, there was no longer any trace of magical beasts. All they could do was use their spiritual energy to sense the surrounding powerful magical beasts. Those magical beasts seemed to have a strong territorial awareness and did not invade each other. If there were people who crossed the border, it would definitely lead to a bloodbath.
Xiao Qianhan and the others walked along the border of the two beast territories, trying their best not to enrage the other beasts. It was not because the beasts were tyrannical to the point that they were afraid, but because Xiao Qianhan did not want to waste her time fighting the beasts.
She had to get the heavenly rejuvenation as soon as possible and then return to participate in the Great Games. As for the last spirit herb Bu Tiandan would concoct, the Yin-Yang Baoqi, he could only plan on doing it after Heavenly Law Congress was done.
In the depths of marshland, there were no longer any towering trees left. What remained were a large amount of shrubs and a few short trees. Here, the surroundings were a hazy fog, and there was also the poison miasma. It was unknown whether this poison miasma was formed naturally or intentionally targeted at cultivators. Once it was inhaled, it would affect the circulation of the spiritual energy in the body. For those who absorbed it, their strength would drop, and at the same time, their cultivation would go berserk, losing their sanity. If a normal person took it in, they would immediately turn into a zombie.
This strange poison miasma mixed with fog was everywhere. As long as he breathed, he would be unable to avoid absorbing the poisonous miasma.
Regarding this, Xiao Qianhan was already prepared, she then took out a few detoxification pills and gave each of them to eat. This detoxification pill was not the normal detoxification pill on the market, but it was Qian Zi's stock and its effects were strong. At least she could cure the poison.
Yun Mojin and the others took it.
"Hey, Smothering Gourd, how many swamps have you discovered on the way here?" Long Yu swallowed the pill and prodded Yuan Shu a little, asking softly. He had always wondered, wasn't this place supposed to benefit the marshland? Why did it seem like he did not see many swamps along the way?
Yuan Shu did not speak, he looked at Long Yu, then turned back.
The corner of Xiao Qianhan's mouth curled slightly, and she said softly, "The true marshland, can be considered as starting from here."
With these words, she moved and was the first to enter the white mist.
Seeing that, Yun Mojin followed closely behind with a tranquil look in her eyes.
Long Yu was startled. Just now? If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have been so tense.
Just as Yuan Shu was about to follow along, he saw Long Yu staring blankly at him and casually said, "You've gone silly, right?" Then, his figure followed closely behind Xiao Qianhan and her.
Long Yu regained his senses, and glanced at Yuan Shu's back in dissatisfaction. I'm not stupid! I was just surprised for a moment!
Soon after, he also followed.
Xiao Qianhan and the rest passed through the white fog that was mixed with the poison miasma, still following the edges of the territory of the beasts. The difference from before was, the deeper one went, the bigger the territory of a single magical beast became. At the same time, the strength of the magical beast also increased. In order to avoid wasting time fighting, Xiao Qianhan and the rest had to take a detour.
Just as they took a detour, an intense fluctuation of spiritual energy suddenly came from the center of a magical beast territory.
There was a battle!
They stood still and narrowed their eyes at the same time. After glancing at each other in tacit understanding, they held their breath and concentrated, directly heading towards the direction of the Spiritual Energy fluctuations were coming from. As they had the Inhibition Formation on them that Yun Mojin had set up to hide their auras, they did not need to hide their auras.
The battle wasn't too far away from them. In less than an incense stick of time, they had arrived at the scene. However, the situation at the scene surprised them.
It was true that a battle had occurred here, but it was also a battle between a person and a magical beast. However, the party of people was not one person, but a group of people! To be exact, it was a group of people hunting a magical beast.
It was an adult Heaven Swallowing Python, its strength not one bit weaker than the Chen Ancestor from before.
The Heaven Swallowing Python had a cruel, brutal, and cold-blooded nature. It was one of the most ferocious types of magical beasts, and was considered a high level magical beast.
If an adult Heaven Swallowing Python were to meet the Chen Ancestor, the Heaven Swallowing Python would win without any suspense. Most importantly, the Heaven Swallowing Python in front of him was not an ordinary Heaven Swallowing Python, it was a mutated double-headed python! The Emperor of the Heaven Swallowing Python!
Two huge heads, one black and one white, the equivalent of two Heaven Swallowing Pythons cultivating at the same time. However, his strength was not as simple as one plus one. One mature double-headed python was enough to fight against at least five ordinary adult Heaven Swallowing Pythons!
At this time, the double-headed python was sealed in place by some unknown restriction and was unable to move. However, there were no injuries on its body. This was because normal attacks couldn't break through its defenses.
On the other side, the group of people immediately retreated out of the double-headed python's attack range, as they pondered on ways to break through the double-headed python's defense.
"Lord, our attacks are unable to break through the defense of this snake. If this stalemate continues, I'm afraid that the restriction won't be able to hold on for long! " One of his subordinates respectfully said to the person in the middle who wore a light blue robe.
That light blue robed man practiced some kind of unknown cultivation technique, yet his figure was somewhat illusory, making it difficult for people to see him clearly. If such a person was placed in a crowd, it would be extremely easy for them to be overlooked.
"A bunch of trash." That person coldly snorted with an arrogant attitude. After that, he looked at the trapped double-headed python, and his gaze darkened, "Go, bring out the things that you have been instructed to prepare."
"Yes, milord." "Yes sir!" the underling replied respectfully, waving for his men to follow suit.
In the distance, Xiao Qianhan looked at the restrictions that trapped the double-headed python, and the color in her eyes slightly condensed. She only saw that the restriction looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't identify it. She could only feel a faint evil energy from the restriction.
There was no difference between positive and negative restrictions, just based on what restrictions were used to activate them. However, there was a type of restriction that was completely different. To be exact, that thing couldn't be called a restriction. This was because one kind of person had specially changed the restriction into something else, something else that was filled with evil energy.
