Chapter 63 The Swamp Vine Demon, all the way forward
Everyone was stunned, not expecting this sudden tentacle at all, and even more surprised by its terrifying speed and power.
"Hurry up and save people!" Fang Chihan, who was standing at the front, reacted very quickly. Ice-blue light came out from his body. He waved his hand, and the ice light wrapped with life force and true energy rushed in the direction of the tentacle retraction.
It swept away and spread quickly, freezing the entire surface of the muddy beach.
"Ivy Technique!" At this time, in the crowd, nearly ten mercenaries were glowing with bright green light, carrying a bit of life. Immediately, green vines as thick as an adult's arm emerged from the green light and quickly wrapped around them.
The mercenary's half exposed body was restrained to prevent him from being pulled down again by the monster's tentacles under the mire.
Nearly ten mercenaries used the wood life-binding technique at the same time, and their power was naturally not weaker than that of the tentacles. In addition, the tentacles seemed to be injured by the cold light. Feeling that there was no hope of kidnapping, they let go of the mercenary.
When the mercenary found out that he had been saved, he immediately used all his strength and struggled desperately to crawl to the edge quickly. A look of fear and panic could be seen on his face covered with mud.
Speaking of which, he was lucky. Fang Chihan reacted quickly and froze the swamp, so that most of his body was blocked from the air by this layer of ice, which gave him a glimmer of hope.
If not, once he is completely dragged into this filthy mud, the chance of survival will be slim. You must know that this mud is not very deep, and the space below it may be thousands of meters, as well as its unique pulling force.
The power is like a water fortune master constantly releasing swamp magic, making people trapped in it and making it difficult to escape. Within a few moments, they will suffocate to death, or be killed by monsters lurking in it.
At this time, as the mercenary fled, the quagmire returned to silence, without even a bubble emerging, as if nothing just happened.
In the crowd, Xiao Che watched this scene with frightened eyes, and his heart was full of emotions.
They were just standing on the edge of the Dead Soul Swamp. Before they stepped into it, they were attacked by unknown monsters. If they entered it, they didn't know what kind of thrilling crises would be waiting in this dead gray swamp.
them.
"It's so damn unlucky that I met the Swamp Vine Demon when I first arrived." Chen Yan cursed in a low voice with an unhappy look on his face, but there was no frightened look on his face. Obviously, as an old mercenary,
He is also quite familiar with the types of monsters in this swamp of the dead.
"What is a swamp vine demon?" A younger mercenary asked this question before Xiao Che.
"The swamp vine demon? It's the main body of the tentacle just now. It's a kind of plant-like monster with a lower bloodline. It's not that strong, but this garbage thing is good at using swamps to carry out sneak attacks. Its tentacles are fast and powerful, and they can take advantage of them.
If people are not prepared, they will be dragged into the mire, killed and devoured. Even if the mercenaries in the fifth or sixth realm are careless, they are very likely to die in their hands, especially those with weak cultivation.
Chen Yan said, with a cautious look in his eyes from time to time.
"So dangerous?!" the young mercenary exclaimed in shock. He was not weak in strength and had the Four Marks of Destiny Realm. But at this moment, he had a grimace on his face, as if he was regretting that he had taken the wrong mission this time.
"Boy, where do you think the name of the Swamp of the Dead comes from? As one of the five most dangerous places in the Qingling Mountains, which one doesn't get its name from the accumulation of corpses?" Chen Yan said coldly, disapprovingly.
After listening to his words, whether it was the young mercenary or other old mercenaries,
Bing's face became even more ugly.
Xiao Che was not surprised. Although he had never heard of the Swamp of the Dead and the so-called five dangerous places before, he had heard about the dangers of the Qingling Mountains. The Swamp of the Dead was located in the deeper part of the Qingling Mountains.
The location, if not dangerous, would make people feel abnormal. Although this swamp vine demon is a bit tricky, if you are always on guard, you can avoid the previous scene.
What Xiao Che is worried about now is the Swamp Demon King that Chen Yan mentioned before. If he accidentally encounters such a powerful monster, the casualties may not be changed by human power.
"Okay, everyone, don't be too nervous. As long as you are cautious and careful, you can minimize the danger of the Swamp Vine Demon." Fang Chihan spoke at the right time. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally found a feasible path.
Since the swamps and hard ground of the Undead Swamp often change, things like maps are completely useless. Only veteran mercenaries who are very familiar with the situation in the Qingling Mountains can make correct judgments in this situation.
.
"Everyone adjust your state and take the obstacle removal pill. We will enter the swamp of the dead." Fang Chihan looked into the distance and said.
"Is this the obstacle removal pill?" Xiao Che asked curiously as he looked at the emerald green pill exuding fresh air in the palm of his hand. At this time, Chen Cang had already distributed the pill to everyone in the Red Blood Mercenary Group. As for Feng
Their leader Li Fengyang is responsible for the Falcon mercenaries' share.
It took less than a quarter of an hour to adjust, and everyone was fully prepared.
"In the swamp of the undead, everyone should try to breathe as little as possible, or use true energy to form a protective shield on the body surface. The effect of the Obstacle Eliminator Pill is not completely able to remove these miasma, so as to avoid inhaling a large amount, which can add up to a lot."
Under the leadership of Fang Chihan, the group truly entered the realm of the Undead Swamp.
After entering the Swamp of the Dead, everyone walked forward along the muddy land.
"I'll go! This is like walking into a cesspit!" Xiao Che frowned and covered his nose, and a pale golden light instantly circulated on his body. The unpleasant smell he smelled before was nothing compared to the stench now.
If he hadn't immediately used the power of the red sun to evaporate some of the stinking gas around him, his eyes would have been burned out at this moment.
The other mercenaries also used their true energy to protect themselves, otherwise it would be difficult to continue walking in such a stench.
The road in the swamp is not easy to walk. There is very little hard land. There is only some solidified mud or land where weeds and old trees grow for people to walk. However, other muddy swamps are quite dangerous, because every piece of it has a possibility.
It's a monster's lair, so we have to rely on Fang Chihan's judgment at this time.
Generally speaking, the bubbling swamps are relatively less dangerous. Most of them are weak swamp monsters, such as scavengers. On the contrary, there are some calm and unrippled muddy waters around them.
A fatal attack may occur at any time.
After walking for about half an hour, Fang Chihan and his party walked less than one-tenth of the way to the Swamp of the Dead. They were surrounded by a foggy gray miasma, which always affected everyone's sight. If a battle broke out in a place like this, they would be able to show their full potential.
The strength that comes out will also be greatly reduced.
At this time, everyone stopped. In front of them, the hard land had disappeared, and even some slightly solidified mud land was pitifully rare. However, if they walked directly on the mire, the monsters hidden deep in it would still be visible.
Needless to say, the continuous pull of the swamp at this moment was enough to make everyone difficult to move.
certainly
Regarding this problem, since the leader Fang Chihan has issued this task, how can he not think of a solution?
I saw the cold energy from his body being released, and streams of light blue water appeared at everyone's feet. Suddenly everyone found that the ever-present suction force of the swamp under their feet had disappeared, and everyone felt much more relaxed.
"Brother Li, I'll leave the rest to you." Fang Chihan turned his head and glanced at Li Fengyang who was not far away.
Hearing this, Li Fengyang nodded with a slight smile. Immediately, a green light flashed across his fingertips, and the powerful wind energy turned into wisps of breeze and surrounded everyone. For a moment, everyone felt as light as a swallow.
The feeling of being able to fly in the air.
"Swamp Technique, Wind Control Technique." Xiao Che felt the lightness under his feet and said secretly.
Swamp Technique and Wind Control Technique are both red copper level and are auxiliary fate techniques. They are the fate techniques in the second level skills of "Water Source Sutra" and "Wind Spirit Art". It is generally difficult to master those who are not in the Fate Enlightenment Realm.
There were many water and wind fortune masters among the people present, and there were also a few who knew these two fortune arts. However, the only ones who could bless everyone with these two fortune arts were Fang Chihan and Li Fengyang. Seeing the strength of these two people,
It is indeed very powerful.
Xiao Che was secretly shocked and somewhat yearned for it, but he had practiced the "Thunder Movement Jue" and no matter how envious he was, he could only look at it.
With the bonus of these two life skills, everyone walked lightly and walked on the swamp as if they were walking on flat ground. The only thing they needed to pay attention to was the attack of the monster beasts that might emerge from the silent mire at any time.
Continuing to walk forward, suddenly in the gray fog, everyone vaguely saw the outlines of several strange-shaped objects. Looking closely, they saw several monster beasts that were completely black and stained with mud. Their appearance was extremely ugly.
There are even some deformities, with their arms stretched out long and soaked in the mud, and their hind limbs cannot be seen. They may be submerged in the mud, or they may not be there in the first place.
At this moment, their huge pointed beaks were gnawing something as if no one was watching. When they opened and closed, they revealed uneven black and yellow teeth, which were very disgusting and ugly.
"That's it!" Xiao Che's eyes were quite sharp. Despite the obstruction of the gray fog, he could still clearly see what those monster beasts were eating. They were several human corpses, mixed in the mud, with large torsos.
Most of them have been eaten away, and only some arms and limbs can prove that they were human beings during their lifetime.
"That's the scavenger monster. They like to eat the rotting corpses of monsters or humans. Of course, they won't resist fresh ones." The mercenary next to Xiao Che followed his surprised gaze and found those monsters.
Finally, he spoke with some disgust.
"It's really disgusting." Xiao Che's eyes were slightly cold. If he were not in this swamp of the dead and couldn't cause trouble at will, he would definitely kill these garbage monsters.
"But it's strange to say that although monsters like scavengers are disgusting, they are not ferocious. They have always been cowardly and timid, and they are not very strong. They generally do not attack humans on their own initiative. I don't know where they picked up these things.
Corpse?" the mercenary continued.
When Xiao Che heard this, his eyes rolled. Although he was extremely disgusted, he didn't say anything. But for some reason, something was wrong in his heart.
"Maybe it's because seeing these scavengers eating people makes you a little disgusted!"
At this moment, the sound of fighting could be faintly heard in the gray miasma ahead. As everyone moved forward, they inevitably saw a shocking scene.
