C1165 Swamp Tour
"Let's go, we need to hurry. No matter what, we need to hurry to the place before Nocturnal Group." Haotian nearly bellowed.
"Senior brother Haotian, why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you say that there is a Spiritual Array outside the ancient monument? Even if Nocturnal Group were to truly find the place, they would still not be able to break through that spirit formation. "
Mu Lee looked at the anxious Hao Tian and said.
Hei Yu and Mo Tong also had the same serious faces: "The Nocturnal Group is different. Although they are also a mercenary group, within their mercenary group, there is one Fifth Grade Spiritual Array Master."
"Fifth Grade Spiritual Array Master."
Gu Feng's and Mu Lee's expression couldn't help but change. Logically speaking, Fifth Grade Spiritual Array Master was already shoulder to shoulder with an expert of Nirvana Stage. As long as he was given enough time to set up the Spiritual Array, his strength would definitely not be weaker than a Nirvana Stage practitioner.
Amongst the many disciples in the Celestial Dragon Sect, only Yuan Ge could barely arrange a fifth grade spirit array.
"If he really finds the ancient monument, I'm afraid he might be able to break through it."
Gu Feng's eyes slightly squinted and couldn't help but to ask. If that was the case, wouldn't the Beast Spirit that he was about to get would fly away again?
"Senior Apprentice Brother Haotian, what should we do now?" Hei Yu and Mo Tong looked at Haotian with a trace of hesitation in their eyes.
The members of the mercenary group were the Demonic Beast and poisonous bugs that stayed in the Black Demon Abyss all year round to fight. They were all ruthless and definitely would not be afraid of them just because they were Celestial Dragon Sect's disciples. If they were to be discovered, they would definitely kill them at all costs.
If it was only the three of them, they would have been fine. Even if they couldn't beat them, they had the confidence to escape. But now, with Gu Feng and Mu Lee, it won't be that easy anymore.
Gu Feng and Mu Lee were silent because this time, the leading figure was Haotian. If he didn't want to go, it would be useless even if the two of them wanted to.
"Let's go take a look. Maybe they just happened to pass by. If we can't, then we'll leave." Haotian was silent for a moment before he spoke with a cold expression. However, a cold glint flashed across his eyes. He clearly did not plan to let go of that ancient monument so easily.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Let's hurry on our way. "
Gu Feng said with a happy expression.
"Let's go."
Haotian waved his hand and led the way. However, this time, they moved even more carefully. He no longer swaggered over like he did before.
In the dark space, it was hard to see far, but the air was filled with the thick smell of blood and the low growls of Demonic Beast. After walking for about five kilometers, they discovered the corpses of dozens of Demonic Beast. Of course, there were human corpses as well. There were hundreds of them, and most of them were from the Night Travelling Mercenaries.
"This is the symbol of South Sky City's Lei and Xie Families. Even they came?"
Haotian stopped in front of the two corpses. Looking at the family badges on their bodies, he frowned. South Sky City was not very far from the Black Demon Abyss, just a hundred miles away. The Night Travelling Mercenaries encampment was in South Sky City. However, what surprised him was that both the Lei and Xie Families from South Sky City had come.
These two clans had a lot of power in South Sky City. Although South Sky City was a relatively remote city, the Lei and Xie Families were not weak. At the very least, with their current cultivation, they could not threaten such a strong family.
"Nocturnal Group, Lei Family, and Xie Family. Looks like the ancient monument has indeed been discovered." Haotian's face turned ugly. He didn't think that even the Lei and Xie Families would be alerted. The strength of these two families was even more tyrannical than Nocturnal Group.
"That's good as well. Since the three clans have appeared at the same time, there will definitely be a war for the ancient monument. We can just take advantage of the situation." Gu Feng had a faint smile on his face. This kind of thing like picking up a bargain was his favorite thing to do. Of course, the prerequisite for this was that both sides had to suffer heavy injuries in the end of the fight. Otherwise, if there was a Nirvana Stage expert amongst them, they would be completely annihilated.
"No, this is too dangerous. The Lei and Xie Families, and Nocturnal Group are not something we can contend against." Mu Lee shook her head.
"That might not be the case. I don't think they can be too sure about the matters regarding the historical ruins, so they definitely won't be too strong this time. It's not like we have no chance." Furthermore, Senior Brother Haotian and the other two are all experts in Ninth Level of Soul Condensation Stage. If the three of them join hands, they might not be able to defeat Nirvana Stage Practitioner. " Gu Feng smiled and said.
"That's right. Moreover, the three clans are together. They will definitely have some worries as well." Haotian nodded and agreed with Gu Feng's view.
"You guys, this is too risky." Mu Lee was still trying to persuade the four of them.
"Wealth comes from danger." Gu Feng said softly, but he was very determined. He was definitely going to get the Beast Spirit in Haotian's hands. No matter what, he was going to get it.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. There's still a long way to go until we reach the ancient monument. Let's head there first." Haotian didn't wait for anyone's response. He waved his hand and led everyone towards the direction of the ancient monument.
Mu Lee had no choice but to follow behind them.1
After walking for a short distance, they arrived at a swamp area. The poisonous miasma was dense and the black miasma could corrode even spiritual energy. Moreover, there were many Demonic Beast in the swamp.
"Let's go. This is a shortcut. We can only pass through here and try our best to arrive before them." Haotian took out a few Barrier Pill and gave it to Gu Feng and the others.
This Soul Barrier Pill was a Grade 4 Elixir. Although its level wasn't high, it was able to form a protective screen on the surface of the human body and block the poisonous black miasma in the swamp.
whoosh *
The five of them quickly rushed through the swamp.
"Bang!"
Not long after they flew out, the swamp began to stir up. Following which, a black stream of water shot towards the five of them. It was like a sharp arrow that was about to pierce through their bodies.
"Hmph!"
Haotian let out a cold snort. With a slap, an extremely murderous aura filled the air.
"Boom!"
The swamp trembled, and then blood spurted out. A corpse of a Demonic Beast that was more than a hundred feet tall appeared.
The five of them continued to travel through the swamp, and there were also many Demonic Beast hiding in the swamp, constantly attacking the five of them. However, under their attacks, all the Demonic Beast that attacked them were killed. When they passed through the swamp, the air above was filled with the thick smell of blood.
"Why is the Demonic Beast in the poisonous marsh attacking us so recklessly?" Hei Yu frowned and asked. The last time they had walked past this place, they had only encountered two or three Demonic Beast's attacks. But this time, there were more than forty to fifty of them, and each of them were extremely powerful. The weakest of them was also at the peak of the sixth level of the Soul Condensation.
