Chapter 198: Poisonous Mist Land

~7 min read 1,349 words

On the way, Lv Fang walked beside Jiang Yuan and asked: "Listening to what you said just now, that unknown Lower Upper Realm seems quite hidden. May I ask how you discovered it?"

Jiang Yuan glanced at Lv Fang and chuckled:

"I also entered that place by accident. After many attempts, I discovered it was because of an item I had obtained previously."

"Holding this item, I can find the place, as if there is guidance from the dark."

"Conversely, without holding the item, even if I remembered the original place, I could never find it. However, rest assured, if we go together, we will be able to find that place."

Lv Fang nodded: "What does that unknown Lower Upper Realm look like?"

To his surprise, Jiang Yuan shook her head and said: "It is shrouded in mist, and one can faintly see a barrier emitting spiritual light. One cannot see what is inside. Once one wants to approach, it is like encountering a mirage, and one can never approach the barrier."

Lv Fang realized upon hearing this; it turned out that Jiang Yuan had only found an unknown Lower Upper Realm and had been to the periphery of this place, but had not entered inside.

She didn't know exactly what was in the Lower Upper Realm either.

Jiang Yuan looked back at the thoughtful Lv Fang and comforted him:

"Entering the Lower Upper Realm is too dangerous, and the entrance cannot be found. I have already given up. This time we are going there mainly to help each other collect the heavenly treasures there. There are many heavenly treasures there, but the only bad thing is that the exotic beasts are too strong."

Talking, the four of them walked very fast, and the further they went, the more remote it became. Everywhere was wilderness, and they didn't encounter a single person all day.

Unknowingly, night fell.

Before the campfire.

"Brother Fang, you said you are a scholar from Great Zhou. Is the night sky there as long as it is here?" The martial artist Beitian turned the roasted meat on the branch and asked casually.

Lv Fang ate the exotic beast jerky he brought and replied: "The night sky in Great Zhou has many stars, but it is not as long as it is here."

Jiang Yuan, who was drinking water on the side, interjected: "I heard people say that the night in the Scorched Earth Region is the longest night in the world."

After a pause, she looked at Lv Fang curiously: "Great Zhou is so prosperous, why did you come here? Is it to cultivate and improve your realm?"

Lv Fang prevaricated: "Yes, the Scorched Earth Region is full of opportunities. Cultivating here might allow me to break through my realm and advance another level."

Outside, for someone like Jiang Yuan in her twenties, Fifth Rank, Third Stage could already be considered gifted. It was probably because of the special nature of this place that she could break through so quickly.

Jiang Yuan showed an 'I understand' expression and said: "You guys eat some dry rations quickly and rest for a while. I will go replace Wu Jie to keep watch. The road is very long, so everyone should try to keep their energy in a full state to prevent encountering danger."

The martial artist Beitian nodded: "Fine, then you go replace the watch first. I'll take a nap and then go replace you. This way, we can take turns resting before setting off at full speed."

Lv Fang didn't fight for it; anyway, it would be his turn sooner or later.

After taking out the sound-transmission talisman to confirm that the 'Invincible Army' side hadn't encountered any difficulties, he breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes to rest.

Because the night in the Scorched Earth Region was too long, after resting for a short half-day, they continued to move forward under the cover of night.

At night, there would be ordinary vision, but they didn't have this concern.

As long as they didn't happen to encounter powerful exotic beasts or malicious villains, they were basically smooth sailing all the way.

After traveling for three days like this, they finally arrived at the place.

It looked like an ordinary wilderness mountain, but when Jiang Yuan walked over slowly, a road composed of mist appeared in front.

"Is this the entrance? Hahaha, too magical."

The martial artist Beitian followed quickly with joy.

Monk Wu Jie and Lv Fang also walked quickly onto the mist road. The moment they stepped on it, they felt as if it were a real road; it was too real.

"Everyone be careful. Once you enter that place, you will encounter poisonous mist. If you have detox pills, you can take them in advance."

Jiang Yuan reminded without looking back.

The martial artist Beitian and the ascetic monk Wu Jie looked at each other and took out pills from their storage bags to take. Obviously, they had prepared in advance.

Lv Fang also took a detox pill. Because he often consumed Book Fragrance Qi, his physique was very strong, especially having a resistance to toxins, so he was not worried.

Even if he really encountered some powerful poison, he would have the conditions to consume Book Fragrance Qi to detoxify.

He walked at the very back of the mist road. After walking for about the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, the scene before his eyes changed suddenly.

The wilderness mountain disappeared, replaced by a vibrant mountain valley, with various towering trees whose names he couldn't name, piercing into the clouds.

Directly in front, in the distance, was a barrier wrapped in mist.

Lv Fang felt that as long as he flew at full speed, he could reach the barrier in a dozen breaths. That should be what Jiang Yuan said, the Lower Upper Realm that was like a mirage, which could not be approached at all.

Yet someone didn't believe it.

The moment the martial artist Beitian saw the Lower Upper Realm, he turned into a stream of light and flew toward the barrier without a word.

"Don't run around, there is poisonous mist with strong toxicity there."

Jiang Yuan reminded.

Along the way, Lv Fang had noticed the personalities of the three. This martial artist Beitian was obviously more reckless.

As soon as he entered here, he sensed that there was poison in the air.

Unless he didn't breathe, he couldn't avoid it.

It was conceivable that Jiang Yuan's reminder that there was very strong poisonous mist in that direction was definitely not an exaggeration.

Just as Lv Fang was observing the surroundings, Beitian, who had run toward the barrier in the mist first, suddenly screamed and retreated quickly.

"Ah... my face! My hands!"

Beitian hurriedly took out detox pills and stuffed them into his mouth as if they were free.

Only to see that the skin he had exposed began to develop pustules and ulcerate. His body seemed to be very itchy, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and scratch. This scratching made the situation even worse.

"Don't scratch!"

Jiang Yuan walked over quickly. She grabbed a handful of large-leaf grass in the surroundings, rubbed it into a ball, and handed it to Beitian: "Take it quickly, it can alleviate your situation. If you feel very itchy on your body, you can apply the juice of this grass."

Beitian swallowed the large-leaf grass ball in one gulp, and the toxicity was obviously alleviated a lot. Afterward, he desperately grabbed large-leaf grass and dripped its juice onto his body.

At this time, Lv Fang and Monk Wu Jie also walked over.

Only to see that the mist barrier that should have been here had disappeared, replaced by an open space filled with green poisonous mist.

And the mist barrier was behind the poisonous mist land, looking not far away.

"The toxicity of this poisonous mist land is so powerful, how do we get past it?"

Monk Wu Jie frowned. ===== CHAPTER 199 =====
