Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

Chapter 238 Because they painted it

A breeze blows and the waves surge.

There is a wide river in front of me.

Even now at low tide, the narrowest part is still more than ten feet wide.

The widest part is more than a hundred feet wide.

This is one of the most horrifyingly dangerous places in the Shinra ruins, Huangquan.

The water of Huangquan River is quite corrosive and toxic, and the deeper it goes, the more toxic it is.

Rumor has it that this is a medicinal liquid specially formulated by the Shenluo Wanxiang Sect to be used for irrigating spiritual plants and feeding pets.

There are also rumors that the Yellow Spring is actually composed of the excrement of various pets. Even the bodies of those pets that died are thrown directly into the water and buried, which makes it extremely turbid.

But no matter what, there is no doubt that Huangquan itself is very dangerous.

For the many warriors exploring the Shinra ruins, the toxicity and corrosiveness of the river water are of secondary importance, because there are even more terrifying dangers in the river.

For example, there are dark whirlpools that even powerful warriors find difficult to escape from, various aquatic beasts living in the water, some traps set up in the water by the Shenluo Wanxiang Sect, and various strange changes that occurred in the water after the destruction of the Shenluo Wanxiang Sect.

More than one person was possessed by the strange red tide that appeared in the river and stepped into it, drowning themselves.

To date, many people still don’t understand what the red tide is, and it is just one of many strange phenomena.

Because of the terrible danger contained in Huangquan, explorers stayed away from it for a long time.

However, there are many caves in the Shinra ruins that are located near the Yellow Spring. As time goes by, the river course changes, and some caves are submerged by the Yellow Spring or surrounded by river water.

Therefore, if one wants to explore those caves, Huangquan is always an unavoidable hurdle.

After years of exploration and summary, warriors gradually found a safer path.

This is the Yellow Springs Road.

Through the Yellow Springs Road, one can explore those ruined caves to the greatest extent. Many treasures, skills, secret collections, etc. that flow into the market are basically related to those caves.

However, as time goes by, news of treasures being discovered in caves has become increasingly rare in recent years. This is not only because those shallow caves have been difficult to produce after multiple rounds of excavation, but also because the deeper caves are full of dangers and difficult to explore.

In addition, the most obvious factor cannot be ignored.

That is the law of the rising and falling tides of Huangquan.

The so-called rules actually have no rules at all, because the high tide or low tide of Huangquan is very random, and even the months of each year are different. Since no one has ever walked to the source of Huangquan, no one knows what the reason is.

However, the warriors have probably summed up a rule, that is, the Yellow Springs' low tide can last at least half a month. Compared with the past, this is the safest time, and it is also the time when the cave is most exposed.

Some caves that were originally difficult to explore can now be entered smoothly.

Therefore, whenever the tide of Huangquan recedes, there are always many warriors coming to explore.

The same is true this time.

In the muddy brown and yellow mud, Zhu Kexin walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, his face faintly showing a terrifying light purple color.

At the side, Wei Daoqi pulled his legs out of the mud, making a crisp sound.

He raised his slightly purple face and asked impatiently:

"How long will it take to get there?"

"It's almost there. It's nearby."

Zhu Kexin took a breath and replied.

On the other side, Pei Burgeng asked with great concern:

"Brother Zhu, do you want to take a break before continuing to explore?"

Zhu Kexin shook his head decisively.

After separating from Wu Xuantian, he and Wei Daoqi unfortunately lost their way in the ruins. After wandering around for a while, they not only failed to reunite with Wu Xuantian, but also lost the trace of Ning Yan.

Finally, the two of them chose a direction and decided to look for other warriors first. If they could meet others, they might be able to collect more information, or at least find out where they are.

However, things turned out to be much worse than they had imagined. On the way thereafter, they encountered a large number of disaster beasts. They finally managed to escape from the disaster beasts, but were accidentally caught in the five-colored miasma near Huangquan.

The five-colored miasma is an extremely difficult toxin. Its toxicity is not as fierce as other poisons. Once you are infected, it will take effect quickly and cause death on the spot in minutes.

This is a chronic toxin that continues to eat away at the body over time.

It takes a total of five days from poisoning to complete onset. During these five days, the skin will appear a different color every day, which is also the origin of the name of the five-color miasma.

The five-colored miasma seems to take effect very slowly, but once it breaks out, it is very ferocious.

I won’t mention anything below the level of entering the power. There is almost no chance of survival after being hit. Even if it is entering the power, it will definitely cause great damage to your vitality.

Of course, there are also several medicines for treating the five-color miasma, but it is often difficult to completely eradicate it. The medicines that can completely cure it are usually extremely expensive, and even the experts will feel pained by the price.

And the most critical thing is the timing of treatment. It is best to take the medicine on the first day. Once the best treatment time is missed and the toxins have eroded too much, even the precious medicine will be powerless to save the patient.

Fortunately, the cave map that Zhu Kexin had obtained before contained a precious elixir that could remove toxins, the Body Cleansing Pill.

In order to detoxify and recover as quickly as possible, Zhu Kexin didn't care about anything else and immediately headed towards the cave according to the instructions on the map.

During this period, they accidentally ran into Pei Burang who was exploring near Huangquan.

Pei Bürang had often come to visit Zijing Hutong before, so he couldn't be said to be a stranger.

With the idea that one more person means more safety, Zhu Kexin asked if the other party was willing to go along, and the other party readily agreed.

At this moment, walking in the mud with shallow water, Zhu Kexin simply threw away his shoes and continued walking barefoot.

As a result, he had only taken a few steps when his body suddenly shook and a pair of arms immediately stretched out from the side and held his body tightly.

"Brother Zhu, can you still walk?"

Pei Burang asked with a worried look on his face.

"Don't worry, I'm in good health."

Zhu Kexin smiled slightly, and the purple on his face looked even brighter.

Pei Burgeng hesitated for a moment, then took out a pill and said to Zhu Kexin:

"Brother Zhu, this place may still be some distance away from the cave you mentioned. Why don't you take this Huanling Pill first? Although the Huanling Pill cannot cure the five-color miasma, it can at least alleviate the toxicity and allow you to successfully complete this journey."

When Zhu Kexin heard this, he was very surprised.

The Soul Summoning Pill is also a rare precious medicine. Although it may not be very effective for the Five-Colored Miasma, it has a wide range of uses. In terms of value, it is almost comparable to the Body Cleansing Pill.

Zhu Kexin took a deep breath and replied slowly:

"Brother Pei, this Soul Summoning Pill is exactly what I need, so I won't be pretentious. If I can gain something from this, I will definitely reward you generously!"

Pei Bu Rang handed over the pill.

Watching Zhu Kexin take the pill, Pei Burang's heart was bleeding.

The Soul Summoning Pill was a precious medicine he prepared for himself, so that he could have a new one in case of any unexpected events. He only had this one pill on his body.

But in order to seize the secret treasure in the cave, he now had to save Zhu Kexin's life. Originally, he planned to directly hold him hostage and use secret methods to torture him to find out the way to the cave.

Who would have thought that this guy actually had a powerful warrior with him? Although he seemed to have suffered a lot of injuries, he still had no confidence of winning when facing this guy.

To be on the safe side, he had to give up the idea of ​​robbing. Fortunately, Zhu Kexin was planning to go to that cave in order to save his life, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After that, as long as he got into the cave, he would be fully prepared and take ruthless action in secret, and there might be a chance to catch the two of them in one fell swoop and take over the entire secret treasure.

When he thought of the huge harvest hidden in the secret treasure and saw him taking the Soul Summoning Pill, Pei Burang's mood couldn't help but become much better.

Not long after Zhu Kexin took the Soul Summoning Pill, he opened his mouth and spat out a pool of purple mucus. As the mucus came out, the purple color on his face obviously became lighter, and his breathing became steady.

Zhu Kexin took a deep breath and turned to look at the two of them:

"Let's speed it up."

Everyone walked in a hurry.

Following the direction indicated by Zhu Kexin, they continued to move deeper into the Yellow Springs Road.

From time to time along the way, you will meet other warriors who come here to explore.

But most of the warriors here are very wary of each other, fearing that others will covet the treasures or information in their hands.

Occasionally, there were warriors who wanted to come forward to explore together, but they were quickly sent away by Pei Burang and others.

As time went by, the path indicated by Zhu Kexin became narrower and more difficult, gradually moving away from the surrounding warriors. During this period, they encountered many dangers, some of which were even unexpected. Fortunately, they were eventually dealt with by Pei Burang and Wei Daoqi.

From this we can see that the road here is extremely dangerous.

The message on the map that you have to work hard to get here does make some sense.

Finally, the three of them staggered all the way to a tilted stone tablet.

The whole stone tablet is dark green in color and looks very rough, as if it was installed with a piece of stone picked up at random. The words on the surface have become very blurred after being exposed to wind and sun, and are now completely unrecognizable.

On the top of the stone tablet, there is a faint dark mark, which looks like it was left by someone who often sat here.

No matter how hard the warriors tried to think, they could never have imagined that this thing was actually related to a hidden cave.

Wei Daoqi stood in front of the stone tablet with a slightly solemn expression. Although he was somewhat skeptical about exploring the ruins, the dangers he had faced along the way had invisibly increased his attention to this cave.

As for Pei Burge, he stared at the stone tablet with his whole body trembling slightly. His excitement was obvious. If the occasion was not inappropriate, he would even have wanted to pull the stone tablet out on the spot.

"The following records are relatively simple. It says that by pressing the stone tablet according to certain rules, one can enter the cave."

As Zhu Kexin spoke, he continued to pat the stone tablet. When he stopped, the ground began to tremble slightly.

The next second, Zhu Kexin didn't even have time to react, his feet suddenly went empty and he fell in with a dazed look on his face.

Wei Daoqi stretched out his hand and swung it violently, but caught nothing.

Pei Burang, who was standing next to him, rushed in, but he bumped into the gray-black rock, making a loud noise.

"The cave is made of obsidian. This is a really big deal."

Wei Daoqi said, stroking his chin.

Pei Burang punched the obsidian hard, but it only made a dull sound and did not leave any trace.

"It's useless. This thing is just hard. If you want to break it, you must have at least the strength of Hua Jin."

Wei Daoqi said lazily.

"Don't you want to go in?"

Pei Burang asked angrily.

"It might not be a bad thing that I can't get in. Who knows if there are other dangers in there? If an enemy of the Silk Power level appears, I won't be able to stop him."

Wei Daoqi chuckled and looked very free and easy.

Pei Bourang walked up to the stone tablet with a sullen face.

Following Zhu Kexin's method, he also patted the stone tablet, but the surroundings were cold and deserted, with no movement at all.

Pei Burang tried dozens of times, using different strengths, different time intervals, and even different positions and postures, but in the end the obsidian still did not open.

He was like a clown, doing useless work on the side.

Finally, Pei Bu Rang, who was furious to the extreme, suddenly slapped the stone tablet with his palm.

As a result, he was shocked so much that he took several steps back.

"I forgot to mention that this stele is also made of obsidian."

"Then why is it blue?!"

Pei Burang asked in disbelief, touching his swollen palm.

“Because they painted it.”

Pei Burang was stunned.

Wei Daoqi glanced at the stone tablet, then at the obsidian on the ground. After a while, he slapped his thigh and said in annoyance:
"How could I have forgotten? The information I saw before mentioned that the Shenluo Wanxiang Sect purchased a large amount of obsidian to create various inheritance sites. This is not a cave at all, it's a legacy! No wonder only one person can go in!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Burang's face suddenly turned ashen.

After waiting for a while, the ground suddenly began to tremble slightly again.

A huge stone chamber suddenly emerged from the ground, and then it collapsed and turned into countless sand and dust.

Amidst the dust, a sitting figure quickly emerged.

It was Zhu Kexin.

Sensing the aura emanating from him, Pei Burang was filled with disbelief:

“Is this… Entering the Strength?!”

"How is this possible?! How long has he been in there?!"

Wei Daoqi replied calmly:
"Nothing is impossible. He has just taken Dao Yun, so it is normal for him to be able to advance into the realm of strength.

Rather, it is strange that this place would choose warriors below the Ru Jin level as the successor. "

Hearing this, Pei Bu Rang was bewildered, his eyes turned completely red.

That'smine!

That should all be mine!!

Looking at Zhu Kexin who suddenly opened his eyes, Pei Burang felt murderous intent surging in his heart like a raging tide.

At this moment, a faint roar suddenly came from the depths of the Yellow Springs:

"If you dare to kill Xiao Shiyi, I want you all to be buried with him!!!" (End of this chapter)
