I really became a king.

Chapter 244: The Blackwater Swamp of Abundance

At this time, Jiang Yi was only a dozen meters away from the black water pool. The white fleshworm only needed to slightly bend its body to swallow him easily.

Facing this terrifying swamp overlord, Jiang Yi's strength is not worth mentioning at all.

But Jiang Yi did not show any sign of panic. He just stood there motionless, and even though the white flesh worms roared loudly, he remained motionless.

Sure enough, seeing that Jiang Yi didn't react at all, the white flesh worm roared unwillingly and then retracted its huge body, which was more than twenty stories high, into the black water pool.

Jiang Yi had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a familiar big fishy mouth suddenly appear in a wetland not far away and directly swallowed several buffalo-like animals. Then this big mouth flashed from time to time in several black water pools nearby, and each time it appeared, it took the lives of several frightened animals.

Jiang Yi saw it clearly. The various animals that were eaten were all frightened by the breath of the flesh worms that were more than 20 meters tall and fled in panic. In their panic, they accidentally stepped into the flesh worms' hunting area and died.

Jiang Yi was very glad that he had controlled his inner fear and did not run away desperately like those animals. Otherwise, in a panic, he might have stepped into the hunting range of the fleshworms.

He also vaguely guessed that the giant fleshworm's target was actually him, but unfortunately Jiang Yi did not touch the fruit and fled in panic.

"What exactly is that red fruit?" Jiang Yi asked himself curiously.

One thing is certain, the red fruit is very important to the flesh worm, otherwise the animal that looks like a wild boar would have swallowed it in one gulp just as it was about to touch the fruit.

Instead, he just let the fruit be eaten without any care, so as to attract Jiang Yi to take the bait.

Jiang Yi secretly thought of this black water swamp, planning to learn more about it when he had time. Maybe he could think of a way to get the red fruit.

Jiang Yi then did not delay any longer and continued to move forward, following the safe route on the map all the way. Even if he had to take a long detour, he would never step out of the safe route.

If he guessed correctly, the prey range of this swamp overlord was extremely wide. Apart from those black puddles, any place with a trace of black water, including humid areas, was within its prey range.

This even included some places that looked very dry, because Jiang Yi had seen with his own eyes more than one animal staying in dry places being swallowed in one gulp.

"This map is really a treasure!"

Jiang Yi secretly felt fortunate. If he didn't have the map in his hand, he would have died countless times in this black water swamp.

Moreover, without the guidance of a map, even the most powerful humans would not dare to set foot in the black water swamp and could only waste time to bypass it.

"If the Blackwater Swamp is like this, what about the Redwater Lake and the Bone Forest connected to it? Are they also so dangerous?"

Jiang Yi walked and thought, while observing the giant flesh worm's every move.

Jiang Yi couldn't compare to this speed. He had just appeared in the black water pond to hunt in the previous second, and appeared ten miles away in the next second. This was the real teleportation. His "Sky Martial Step" was far inferior to it.

Jiang Yi even suspected that there was more than one flesh worm in the black water swamp, otherwise how could it move so fast, but he knew that there was only one flesh worm. At the same time, he was also curious, could it be that the underground of the black water swamp was interconnected? So the flesh worm could move back and forth freely?
Jiang Yi did not delay along the way and finally reached the edge of the Black Water Swamp, while the huge flesh worm was always lurking around behind him.

"It's a pity to waste so many natural treasures..." Jiang Yi sighed secretly as he looked back at the swamp covered by black mist. Along the way, he truly saw what it meant to have natural treasures!

After getting the gem, he hadn't encountered any natural treasures for several days, and he once suspected that his luck had run out. But this trip to the Blackwater Swamp almost blinded him.

The entire Blackwater Swamp is simply a huge treasure trove. Jiang Yi saw more than a dozen species that he recognized.

For example, on a small hill, there stands a tea tree, exuding a strong martial arts charm. Jiang Yi speculates that it should be a precious tree similar to the legendary enlightenment tea.

There was also the Sumeru Stone that Jiang Yi had been looking for, which was as big as a basketball and was quietly lying in a shallow puddle. Jiang Yi's eyes turned red when he saw it.

He needed this Sumeru Stone very much, because this material was needed to refine a sword box. Jiang Yi had always wanted to refine a sword box that could truly hold ten thousand swords, and such a large piece was enough for him to cast many sword boxes.

These are just the most representative ones he knows, and there are many more that he doesn't know.

Along the way, the gem in Jiang Yi's arms got hot every time he went to a certain distance, making Jiang Yi feel itchy.

But Jiang Yi still held back. The giant fleshworm was too strange and elusive. These natural treasures might be within its hunting range. Jiang Yi didn't want to take any risks.
"I'll come back when I find a way to deal with you."

Jiang Yi glanced at the fishy mouth that flashed by in a pool of water not far away, said something to himself, and walked out of the Black Water Swamp.

Hearing the angry and unwilling sounds of the white flesh worms behind him, Jiang Yi could even feel the ground under his feet shaking slightly.

Just as Jiang Yi was about to step out of the Black Water Swamp, his expression changed, and he retracted the Green Flame into the Mountain and Water Martial Realm, while he himself practiced the "Nine Nines Return to One Art" and leaned over the crown of a tree.

The whole person has no aura, and has completely merged with the surrounding environment.

"There is no information about the masked man and Wind and Thunder Sword Master. Where can we find him?"

A voice was heard outside the Black Water Swamp, and then four or five figures appeared in Jiang Yi's field of vision, all of them had reached the sixth level of martial arts cultivation.

Looking for Fenglei Daojun? Then isn't that looking for me? Seeing the appearance of several people serving, Jiang Yi had a guess in his mind and was overjoyed. Since the other party appeared here, the camp of Li Yuan of the Baiyue Dynasty must be nearby!
"Let us search for him, but the Yinshan Secret Realm is so large, we don't know where he has escaped to..."

"The swamp is right in front of us. Should we go in and try our luck?" Several people said this as they walked to the edge of the Blackwater Swamp, and one of them spoke up.

"I think you are crazy about the treasure. You dare to enter the Blackwater Swamp? Aren't you afraid of getting lost in it?" said another person.

"Haha, I'm just talking. I don't dare to really step into it. It is said that once you step into this swamp, you will get lost inside and it will be difficult to find the way out..."

Lost? Jiang Yi frowned. It was extremely dangerous and full of traps, but it wouldn't be possible to get lost, right?
"When do you think that precious treasure will be revealed?"

At this time, several people changed the topic. Jiang Yi was shocked when he heard it. It was really a case of finding something after searching for a long time. After several days of hard searching, he finally approached the range where [Sumeru Palace] appeared.
