Half a month later, the three finally arrived at their destination.
The bright moon hung high, but there were thick clouds, which prevented the moonlight from falling for a long time, and the earth was dark.
On the ground, there were some rotten branches and leaves and dead bodies on top of the water-soaked mud, exuding a strong stench that made people sick.
This is a swamp rainforest, humid all year round, and the methane in the air is highly toxic.
Chu Cheng looked at it from a high altitude and saw the rotten sand mixed with it, making him uneasy.
He slightly opened his aura shield to resist the miasma. This made him feel much better.
The same is true for He Feng. He came to this place by chance. Even if he is a perfect foundation builder, he cannot sustain the miasma here for long.
Chu Cheng retracted his gaze and when he turned to the man in black, his pupils shrank slightly.
Yang Qing showed no reaction, just looked down quietly without opening the spiritual shield at all.
Chu Cheng knew in his heart how poisonous this miasma was. The poisonous air invaded the body and penetrated deeply into the body and mind. In severe cases, it could lead to poisoning and the regression of cultivation.
But the man in black didn't respond. Either the miasma had no effect on him, or he was just showing off.
When it comes to pretending and pretending, Chu Cheng is said to be second, and no one dares to claim to be first. As a master of pretending in the past, he naturally knows that pretending requires occasion. No one will risk his life to pretend.
"The miasma here is extremely poisonous, so don't worry about the rest." Riverwind landed on the ground first.
Chu Cheng and the man in black also fell down one after another. Their feet landed on the ground, making a crunching sound when they stepped on the dead branches.
Hefeng walked forward and said, "That altar should be the remains of an ancient witch."
After closing his words, the man in black's eyes flashed slightly, and then melted into the darkness under the cloak.
"Ancient witch?" Chu Cheng was stunned and a little confused.
"Yes, that is the altar left behind by the ancient witch." He Feng nodded.
"..." Chu Cheng was speechless and asked again: "What is this ancient witch?"
Hefeng was stunned, turned to look at Chu Cheng, frowned and said: "Brother Chu is joking, how come you don't know about the ancient witch?"
At this moment, the man in black, Yang Qing, spoke: "During the Ancient Immortal Period, the Twelve Ancestral Witches followed the Immortal Emperor and conquered all directions, intimidating the Eight Desolations. Legend has it that when the Ancestral Witches were angry, the heaven and earth would collapse."
The man in black looked a little excited when he said this, but he immediately became addicted again.
"The twelve ancestral witches are Dijiang, Jumang, Liaoshou, Gonggong, Zhurong, Zhuyin, Qiangliang, Shebi, Tianwu, Huizi, Xuanming, and Houtu."
"The God of Fire, Zhu Rong, the God of Water..." Chu Cheng was shocked when he heard this.
In his world, this was recorded in ancient myths and "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
Chu Cheng was horrified. At this time, he had a feeling that the world in his previous life must have something in common with this world.
He clenched his fists and suppressed the excitement in his heart. At the same time, he became more and more eager to become stronger, because only in this way could he have hope of returning.
"As for the ancient witches, they are the descendants of the ancestral witches after the fall of the Immortal Ancient Era. They are born with supernatural powers and can become semi-saint-like existences when they reach adulthood. In the ancient times, they once became the overlord for a while. But after countless years, they finally became
Or disappeared into the long river of history." Riverwind continued what the man in black said.
"At that time, the ancient witch was the master of all realms and enslaved mankind. It was a dark age, and people were used as food. But later, some sages among mankind discovered that they could absorb the essence of the sun and moon to enhance their physique, and even be able to control the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Strength. Later, monks appeared."
"Later on, one sage after another created a cultivation system, allowing those who have the ability to practice to become stronger. After many years of keeping a low profile, they finally have the strength to fight against the ancient wizard."
Hefeng sighed: "Sages from ancient times were all great wise men, and we and other future generations cannot compare with them."
Chu Cheng was still immersed in this story, and when he heard the sound suddenly stopped, he was stunned and said: "The monk won later?"
Hefeng shook his head and said: "No, the monk lost. The ancient witch was born with a golden elixir, and he can reach the level of a semi-saint in adulthood. After the monk lost, human beings were angered by the ancient witch and almost became extinct."
"Then what?" Chu Cheng asked again. From the mainstream of human beings in this world, we can see that there was a turning point later.
Hefeng said again: "Heroes have appeared in troubled times since ancient times. When everyone thought that mankind was about to become extinct, an unparalleled Supreme One appeared and destroyed the entire Wu Clan with the power of one person. No one knew who he was. All they knew was that it was him.
Buried the ancient witch. The world respectfully calls him--Buried!"
"Burial?" Chu Cheng frowned, vaguely feeling that the name was familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"I'm afraid there are treasures in the Ancient Witch Altar. How will we distribute them then?" The man in black suddenly said in a sinister tone.
Chu Cheng frowned and glanced at Yang Qing coldly. These words were somewhat provocative. If there was only one treasure, how would the three people distribute it?
As soon as this sentence came out, there was a gap between the three people.
Hefeng didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "There are exactly three items in the altar."
"That's good, otherwise someone will leave empty-handed." The man in black glanced at Chu Cheng and snorted coldly.
Chu Cheng's face turned stern, and a monstrous murderous intent suddenly swept out, overwhelmingly pressing towards the man in black.
As soon as this murderous intention emerged, the expressions of the man in black and He Feng suddenly changed.
This killing intent was so thick with evil that even the air froze.
"Brother Chu!" Hefeng exclaimed. At this moment, he seemed to be facing thousands of dead bodies!
Chu Cheng snorted coldly, his murderous intention immediately dissipated, and the surrounding area returned to normal.
This man in black has repeatedly targeted him. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't reached the ancient witch altar yet, Chu Cheng would have already taken action.
The man in black took a deep look at Chu Cheng, but this time his eyes were full of fear.
Hefeng sighed, took a step forward and said, "Don't let the two of you hurt your harmony. You two are both friends of me, Mr. He!"
"Please also ask fellow river travelers to lead the way." Chu Cheng said calmly.
River Wind glanced at the man in black again, feeling helpless and had no choice but to step forward and continue walking.
Half an hour later, Hefeng stopped and stood in front of a boulder.
He waved his hand with one hand, and a wave rippled in front of the boulder, and the ripples flashed away, revealing a cave.
There was no light in the cave, it was dark, and the sound of dripping water could be heard inside.
"Where is this?" Chu Cheng looked at the entrance of the cave with some confusion. There is no altar here.
"The ruins are inside." Hefeng took out a luminous pearl and walked in.
With the appearance of the luminous pearl, the entrance of the cave was instantly illuminated with light.
There was a crash, and a group of bats were frightened by the bright light and flew out of the cave one after another.
