Chapter 135 Evil Spirit Swamp
The moonlight was blocked by the towering Monster Hunting Wall. It was dark under the wall, with only lights on in the pavilions and courtyards.
Above the main street, a team of seven people was flying along the wide street, passing through the layers of guarded gates of the Great Wall, and flying out of the Great Wall.
A figure in the team looked back, looking at the tall city wall, where figures were watching them below.
Lin Lingqi glanced at Xuan Kun and laughed, "Haha, don't worry, Brother Aikun. With your late foundation building strength, as long as you don't encounter a fifth-level monster or a group of monsters, you will be basically fine."
Xuan Kun smiled when he saw this. He was just observing the cultivators on the high wall. Xuan Kun felt that there must be a Nascent Soul cultivator there.
He replied, "Brother Zero Seven is right. We still need the team's cooperation."
The bald young man in front also laughed after hearing this and said, "Brother Aikun is right. I hope we can gain a lot from this trip out of the city."
The bald man's name is Shan Mingze. He is the leader of this team. His strength is at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage. Including himself, there are three people in the team who are in the late Foundation Establishment stage, two in the middle Foundation Establishment stage, and two in the early Foundation Establishment stage.
His strength is pretty good. If he encounters a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan, he might be able to escape with a few of them...
Outside the Monster Hunting Wall is an empty plain with no trees, not even shrubs, only scattered green grass.
Although it was dark at this time, as long as Xuan Kun cultivator reached the foundation building stage, his night vision ability was basically the same as during the day, not to mention the existence of spiritual consciousness.
A group of seven people crossed the plain grassland and arrived at the forest in the distance. After entering the forest, everyone flew low in order to encounter high-altitude monsters.
From leaving the city gate to entering the forest, there were many monks from other teams, but they disappeared one by one, leaving only Xuan Kun and his seven companions.
Xuan Kun still remembered everyone's plan in the yard house. Shan Mingze had told him everything. This time they went out of the city to enter the evil spirit swamp of the demon clan and work together to hunt down several fourth-level swamp spirit crocodiles.
Take the demon pill so that Shan Mingze can retreat and break through the bottleneck of foundation building, form a golden pill, and become a Jindan cultivator.
In this way, their team will have a Jindan cultivator who can hunt stronger monsters, so that all team members can hunt monsters and obtain pills, refine them into elixirs, break through their respective bottlenecks, and achieve higher levels of cultivation.
The Evil Spirit Swamp is located in the western heartland of the demon clan. Along the way, under the leadership of the experienced Shan Mingze, the group killed any first or second level demon beasts they encountered directly.
When encountering third or fourth level monsters, it was inconvenient to fight, so they just took a detour to avoid them. The most dangerous time was when the seven of them almost broke into the territory of a fifth level monster. Fortunately, everyone avoided it again.
Xuan Kun's spiritual consciousness was always outward, so he naturally knew everything that happened along the way. He also had to admire the experience of the bald man who led the way.
I couldn't help but think, "This person isn't very old, but looks like a young man. Could he be a cultivator from that powerful force who came to the Monster Hunting Great Wall to train?"
After two days of flying and stopping, the group finally arrived at the Evil Spirit Swamp safely. They stayed outside the Evil Spirit Swamp to recover their spiritual power so that they could reach their peak strength to deal with the next task.
Looking at this area of mixed mud and water of varying depths, the spiritual energy is quite rich.
Xuan Kun thought to himself, "The spiritual energy here is quite good. No wonder it has become the habitat of the Swamp Spirit Crocodile. I'm afraid there are other monsters as well, but I think the transformed monsters will take a fancy to this place."
"I just don't know if there are any items needed for the seventh level of the Five Elements Return to Heaven Technique, so that I can prepare in advance for another baby."
Shan Mingze recovered first and glanced at everyone, only to find that Xuan Kun had actually opened his eyes and was now looking in the direction of the Evil Spirit Swamp.
He was also surprised and said, "Brother Aikun, you have recovered your spiritual power so quickly. Have you started observing the Evil Spirit Swamp? I wonder if you have found anything."
Xuan Kun smiled. He didn't consume much energy in the first place, so he recovered naturally. Moreover, everyone had been walking and stopping along the way, always keeping their spiritual power at its peak.
Not to mention that he had a fully automatic Mountain and River Seal, which continuously absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for Xuan Kun. He directly replied, "Brother Mingze, you are joking. What kind of discovery can this make? I still need Brother Mingze to introduce it!"
But Shan Mingze smiled and nodded, "Is that so? Then let's wait for everyone to come together!"
After a while, everyone recovered, and Shan Mingze began to introduce, "We've said almost everything we need to say before we set off, but I still have a few more things to say to everyone."
"The Evil Spirit Swamp is extremely vast, and there are many fifth-level monsters, as well as sixth- and seventh-level monsters. Everyone must be careful to avoid getting into danger."
Having said that, he glanced at Xuan Kun. It was obvious that these words were meant for Xuan Kun. After all, the six of them were teammates who had worked together many times, and only Xuan Kun was joining the team for the first time.
Xuan Kun nodded when he saw this. Although Shan Mingze did not point it out, everyone present understood it. Then, Shan Mingze continued.
"When a Swamp Spirit Crocodile is young, it is a first-level monster. When it grows up, it has the strength of a fourth-level monster. The king among them has the strength of a fifth-level monster."
"Our target this time is the adult Swamp Spirit Crocodile. We will stick to the original plan. The three of us in the late Foundation Establishment stage will be responsible for the kill, and the four of you will be the supporting ones. Jingyi, you will distribute the Miasma Pills."
After saying that, Shan Mingze looked at the ordinary-looking female cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage.
Seeing this, Jingyi, who was straightforward, took out five jade bottles and flew them in front of everyone.
He said bluntly, "There is miasma in the Evil Spirit Swamp. This is the Miasma Pill, which can block the troubles caused by the miasma."
Everyone took it, and Xuan Kun also took a look at the pills. After confirming that they were non-toxic and had no marks, he put them into the storage bag.
Under Shan Mingze's whispered command, everyone headed towards the Evil Spirit Swamp to search for the Swamp Spirit Crocodile.
The Evil Spirit Swamp is not like the forest, where there are trees to serve as cover. There are only a few low shrubs in the water, which have no hiding effect at all.
Everyone flew carefully and after a while they finally found two swamp crocodiles, one with the strength of an adult fourth level and the other with only the strength of a second level.
The seven people worked together to kill it. They thought it would make a lot of noise, but they didn't expect that Shan Mingze had been prepared and set up a formation to block the sound outside.
Everyone also truly witnessed Xuan Kun's strength. He really didn't look like a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building. Instead, he looked like a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, with no strength at all.
This caused Wang Xuanzi, the only female cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building in the team, to start to sneer and mock.
"I didn't realize it before, but I didn't expect it to be just as you said, your strength is so low!"
Wang Xuanzi felt that Xuan Kun's strength was not even comparable to hers. After all, although she was not yet in the late stage of foundation building, she was not far from the late stage.
