Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

The somewhat flat official dirt road welcomed an unprecedented luxurious lineup today, with nearly a hundred people at the Ru Jin level and even the Si Jin level, fully armed, walking on it.

The power revealed by this team was so great that not only the merchants and travellers who happened to encounter it were shocked to the point of almost falling to the ground. Even the evil spirits and monsters that often attacked passers-by in the past retreated deeply into the wilderness today and dared not approach this place at all.

As a result, along the way, the crowd had almost no other activities except hurrying on their way.

"I wanted to hunt some game on the way to satisfy my craving, but I never thought you would make such a big noise that you scared away all the game I wanted."

The Fifth Sword complained unhappily.

Li Qingzhi on the side replied with a smile:

"There's nothing we can do about it. The weakest of the warriors present are all at the state of entering the state of strength. Even if they try their best to exert their might, the Qi will inevitably leak out when they move. With so much might interweaving and radiating in all directions, those evil spirits and monsters, as long as they have their brains intact, won't they be able to run as far as they can?"

"Of course I understand all this, but I just feel a little depressed."

The Fifth Sword said as he looked at Ning Yan on the other side and shouted:

"Brother Ning, remember to treat me to a good meal when you get back. I'll remember this meal on your head."

"It's covered."

Ning Yan agreed with a smile.

Everyone chatted for a while, and soon, the destination of this trip was in sight.
Seeing the huge fog in the distance, Ji Dinghuang, who was dressed in white, narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:

“Is this Yin Jue Lin?”

Ning Yan nodded solemnly and said:

"Exactly."

Beside him, He Qianyan of Qianyan Sect stroked his long beard and asked curiously:

"I remember that Yin Jue Forest wasn't this big before? Wasn't it just a small forest? How did it become like this now?"

"That's right."

Qi Ruyue, who was covered in armor, also nodded and said:

"More than ten years ago, I passed by this area while chasing an evil spirit. At that time, this forest was only a small area, probably less than one percent of its current size. Why is it like this now?"

"It's the Qiongqi Divine Envoy."

Zhu Kexin suddenly replied:
“Even on the day we left, Yin Jue Forest had not grown to its current size. Now it seems that the Netherworld Black Mist inside has been expanding outwards for days, and now it has exceeded the coverage of the entire Yin Jue Forest, and even the large area outside Yin Jue Forest has been completely covered by it.

If we don’t stop them, they may spread to the trade routes here, or even to nearby cities in a while!”

Thinking of the scene of black fog rolling and covering endless area, everyone's faces became solemn.

Before this, they agreed to take action, partly because of the magic sword provided by Ning Yan, and partly because of course they wanted to eliminate the Qiongqi God's Messenger to prevent future troubles.

But now, seeing the abnormal situation of the black fog spreading wildly, everyone can feel the horror here.

If Ning Yan and others hadn't provided the information, I'm afraid that once they learned about the situation here, it would be too late to stop it.

And if it is allowed to continue expanding, who knows how many cities will be destroyed.

At least, none of the four cities close to Yin Jue Lin can escape.

And how many residents of the city will die tragically in such a horrific disaster?

Just thinking about that tragic scene, everyone felt heavy in their hearts.

"Anyway, now that we are here, let's try to achieve some results."

Ji Ding Huang Ning said:
“Back then, the founders of Daxia also fought against those evil spirits and strange things in the boundless black region, and only then did they establish the cities and human gathering places we have today.

Now, we are just dealing with a sleeping evil cultivator, which is much better than their original situation.

If we all work together, there is no chance of failure!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the field was boosted.

Everyone stepped forward and soon arrived in front of Yin Jue Lin.

Looking around, the thick black fog seemed like a living evil creature, filled with a rhythmic sense of breathing.

Every time it "inhaled", it would retreat a large area, and there were almost no living things in those areas, no insects, birds or animals. Even the grass growing on the ground was either completely dead or transformed into various strange and twisted postures.

However, when the huge fog ball "exhales", the exhaled black fog will exceed the original boundaries and further erode the outside.

With every breath, the entire fog group was constantly expanding outward.

It is inevitable that the Yin Jue Forest that everyone sees is such a huge sight now.

I'm afraid that in a while, it will really spread to the roads.

Ning Yan, Zhu Kexin and others looked at each other and couldn't help feeling very fortunate.

Fortunately, they did not listen to the words of the two-year boundary and recruited so many helpers in time.

If we really have to wait two years, it would be useless to find these people now.

"Let's go in and take a look at what's so special about this dark fog."

He Qianyan rubbed his wrist and strode forward.

Everyone in the group took obstacle-avoiding pills and body-stabilizing pills and followed them inside.

They were extremely well prepared for this operation.

Not to mention ordinary elixirs like the Obstacle Avoidance Pill, even precious elixirs that can intensify temporary bursts and restore strength were also prepared in large quantities.

The treasures of all major sects, including the Tianxia Association and some drug stores, were almost all cleared out.

In order to deal with the Qiongqi God's envoy, it is no exaggeration to say that everyone present has put in all their efforts.

When you step into the black fog, the first thing that is affected is your vision.

The original field of vision limit of several hundred feet was immediately compressed to a few dozen feet.

But this distance is much better than before.

Next was breathing. Even though they had held their breath, the black mist still seemed to have consciousness and eroded into their bodies through the pores or other places on their bodies.

However, with Ru Jin's strength, resisting the erosion of the black fog is no problem at all.

But if he gets seriously injured in the subsequent battle, this black fog might become a big trouble.

Everyone secretly assessed the impact of the black fog on themselves and the subsequent responses they would take.

Ning Yan noticed that the black fog was much weaker than before.

It may be because it spread too far and caused the concentration to drop, or it may be because he is now much stronger than before.

All in all, the feeling that this black fog gave Ning Yan was nothing like the terrifying and oppressive feeling that he remembered.

I think the people around him probably feel the same way.

Ning Yan thought as he led the way.

After walking about two or three kilometers, we finally saw the hidden Yin Jue Forest.

The outer area of ​​Yin Jue Lin looked no different from the past, except that the soil on the ground had become darker and the surrounding environment had become more dead silent.

There is no doubt that all the monsters that once lived here have disappeared at this moment.

Either escape or become blood food for the black-winged borer.

Until they crossed the entire outer land, the group did not encounter any of the attacks that they had imagined in advance.

This dead silence made everyone feel even more depressed.

But this oppression will eventually break.

Wait until you cross the boundary of the outer domain and enter the inner domain.

At first glance, I saw a group of black-winged borers buzzing towards us in the distance.

In an instant, more than a dozen figures jumped out:

"I come!"

"let me!"

"I love killing insects the most!"

"I've been killing insects since I was a kid!"

……

As they spoke, everyone attacked one after another, and violent forces emerged one after another.

The group of black-winged borers barely had time to react before they were blasted to pieces by several powerful attacks. Even the remaining pieces were brutally mauled by subsequent attacks.

Seeing the debris falling down, Ning Yan and others were speechless.

Perhaps those black-winged borers never thought that one day they would have such a grand funeral.

Perhaps it was the noise caused by this wave of battle, as other black-winged borers began to buzz towards this side, occasionally mixed with a mess of Wanglang and corpse puppets.

When the warriors saw these enemies, they were like they had taken stimulants. They rushed forward yelling and killing indiscriminately, being extremely brutal.

They pushed forward like this all the way, and soon they arrived at the vine wall deep in the inner area.

The nearly endless vine wall has now undergone new changes.

Not only did the vines grow taller and covered with sharp barbs, they also grew to a height of twenty or thirty feet.

Standing in front of this vine wall, everyone was just like ants.

"Strong attack?"

The Fifth Sword asked excitedly.

The Sword Masters held their swords tightly.

They really love chopping wood.

Especially when it comes to cutting those tall exotic plants, it feels particularly fulfilling.

The more you cut, the more fun it is, and the more you cut, the more you gain.

Seeing this, Zhu Kexin quickly stopped him and said:
"Everyone, don't be anxious for now. This vine wall should be related to the Qiongqi God Envoy inside. If we cut it down and damage it now, it will probably attract the attention of the Qiongqi God Envoy and stimulate him to wake up early."

"Well, I just said that, to satisfy my desire to talk, let's just follow what we agreed on beforehand."

The fifth sword waved his hand in disinterest.

At this time, more than a dozen warriors from Qianyan Sect had already stepped forward and poured the dead plant liquid they had bought in advance around the vine wall.

This plant-drying liquid will not take effect immediately. Instead, it will greatly stimulate the growth of various plants after being absorbed by them. However, when it grows to a certain size, the toxicity inside will penetrate deeply into every part of the plant body and explode completely. At that time, it can easily cause the plant to wither and die.

"Looking at the scale, it will probably take three hours to take effect."

He Qianyan glanced at the vine wall above his head and said.

"Three hours is very tight. We can't waste time on the road. Let's continue inside."

After Ji Dinghuang finished speaking, everyone stopped hesitating and quickened their pace.

Of course, they encountered some enemies such as heart-eating insects, corpse puppets, Wanglang, etc. along the way. Both their levels and strengths were stronger than those they had encountered before, but under the response of a group of strong people, they were almost crushed one-sidedly.

Entering the power is indeed much stronger than entering the power.

The group went deeper and deeper, and finally when they were about to step into the deep area, they encountered an enemy that could be considered a match.

……

In the inner domain.

A group of people were going deeper into the interior along a vaguely visible path on the ground.

Leading the group were four young warriors with different appearances.

The only thing that is similar is that they all have branch-like dragon horns on their foreheads, but they vary in size and complexity.

At this moment, Zhao Yuntan, who was wearing a black robe, looked at the ground and said:
"The soil on the ground seems to have a restorative effect. After the group from Fulong City had been gone for a while, the traces on the ground were almost invisible."

"Fifth brother is really worried."

The young man on the other side, with his hands behind his head, said nonchalantly:
“Even if the traces on the ground completely disappear, there will be no problem with the dragon tail incense we asked people to apply on them.

We can't lose their trail by following the scent all the way inside."

"Seventh brother, you are wrong."

The young man in white holding a folding fan said with a smile:

"We must prepare a few more methods for everything. Since Yin Jue Forest is the sleeping place of the Qiongqi God Envoy, it is better to be careful."

"Sixth brother is right!"

The honest young man in gray shorts said in a buzzing voice:
"If something unexpected happens in this forest and can cover up their scent, we must have other means to determine their location."

"Do not worry."

Zhao Yun, who ranked fifth, said calmly:

"Even if the Dragon Tail Incense dissipates, I will still be able to catch up with them. Right now, the mission is more important."

Soon, everyone came to the wide and tall vine wall.

Looking at the huge vine wall, even Zhao Yun and the other dragon descendants were stunned for a moment.

"Is this the great power of a third-level expert?"

Xu Yuxing, holding a folding fan, murmured.

"To be precise, it should be the mighty power of the Qiongqi God."

Zhao Yuntan sighed and said:

"The Qiongqi Divine Envoy is not an ordinary third-level expert. Even among the twenty-four Divine Envoys of the Blood God Cult, he is one of the top experts."

"Those guys in Fulong City actually want to deal with a strong man like the Qiongqi Divine Envoy. I think even if we don't use any tricks, they will definitely not win."

The honest young man Wu Yue said with a gloating look.

“Don’t underestimate the enemy.”

Zhao Yuntan said with a serious expression:

"No matter what, we have to strive for the highest success rate. It would be best if all these people died in this forest."

"Then do it quickly."

Xu Yuxing looked at the tall vine wall that was growing continuously and smiled:
"I smell the scent of dead plant liquid. It's obvious that they intend to completely destroy this vine wall. Based on the principle that we must do our best to destroy what the enemy wants to do, we might as well add some ingredients to this medicine."

As he spoke, he poured deep red liquid into the base of the vine wall.

The tall vine that was originally growing slowly suddenly began to tremble violently.

The slight vibration spread rapidly in all directions.

……

“Is the ground shaking?”

At the border between the outer domain and the inner domain, Wei Daoqi asked with a look of surprise on his face.

"I guess there was a fight going on inside."

Zhang Xiuhua said lazily:

"It's just right to let Fu Long's group take the lead and weaken the Qiongqi God Envoy as much as possible. Then we can pick up the loose ends and perhaps get unexpected gains."

"That being said, don't forget how terrifying the Qiongqi Divine Envoy is. If Fulong and his gang wake it up in advance, then all the methods we have prepared will be useless."

Wu Xuanzong reminded.

"Guan Ruoyu hasn't even arrived yet, why are you so anxious?"

Zhang Xiuhua was speechless.

"But Guan Ruoyu is not afraid of mission failure."

Wei Daoqi said with a sneer.

Zhang Xiuhua’s face suddenly froze.

"Okay, stop hesitating and hurry up and go inside."

Li Kezhao rolled up his sleeves and gritted his teeth and said:
"No matter what, this operation must not fail!"

As he spoke, he rushed forward first.

Wu Xuanzong and the others did not hesitate either, and all turned into streams of light and rushed forward. (End of this chapter)
