Chapter 85: Half a Master (Seeking Recommendation Tickets!!)

  This ugly monster, its body seems to be able to move freely in the muddy water, and on its face, there are even dark green scales, making it look extremely ferocious and frightening.

  After his angry roar, the poisonous miasma hovering above several nearby swamps actually slowly moved towards this area.

  A thick, noxious miasma suddenly appeared above the heads of the people on the rocky mountain path. The miasma continued to condense and slowly, a mist began to form within it.

  "Whoosh!"

  A drop of green poisonous water suddenly dripped from those toxic vapors.

  At one time, in this piece of swamp land, it suddenly started raining toxic rain.

  Chi Yan's face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Zhu Ji! Don't get out of line!"

  When speaking, Chi Xiao suddenly threw out a silver awning from his bosom. As soon as the awning came out, it instantly expanded and violently covered up the sky above Shi Yan's head.

  A drop of poisonous water fell, dripping onto the silver curtain, sliding down the edge of the silver curtain, and the poisonous water fell into the swamp, from which a thick green poisonous smoke suddenly burst out.

  "Silver Screen!"

  The ugly monster's face was gloomy and he shouted: "You even brought the Silver Silk Curtain! Chi Xiao, this time you are really prepared to deal with me!"

  "Halt!" Chi Ying saw that Paw Ki was about to act, and hastily said: "Paw Ki, this time you've really misunderstood! I came for the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake, absolutely not to make things difficult for you! The Silver Silk Ribbon was brought to prevent the venom of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake, it has nothing to do with you!"

  "I don't believe it!" Zhang Qi sneered, "You alone want to deal with the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake? You think that's possible? Hmph, you and the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake have no grudge, you must be thinking of dealing with me!"

  After a cold hum, he pressed one hand fiercely into the swamp, and strands of strange green light sank into the swamp.

  In the marsh, a mud dragon condensed from the muddy water suddenly jumped out. The mud dragon was as thick as a person's waist and over 10 meters long, fiercely biting towards Shi Yan and his group.

  Kaguya can not only control the poisonous miasma of the Dead Silent Marshes, but also seems to be able to manipulate mud!

  Shi Yan's expression changed slightly, not expecting to encounter such a troublesome guy as soon as he entered the Dead Swamp. He immediately raised his vigilance and secretly mobilized the essence in his body to deal with the mud dragons that were charging at him.

  One by one, the mud dragons flew out of the swamp, shaking their long bodies, and rushed towards the stone rock from all sides, making a spectacular scene.

  The dry land where Shiyan and others were standing also began to soften slowly, looking at this trend, it should be affected by the power of that swamp, and soon sink into the marsh.

  Xia Xinyan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and she had already made up her mind to use the "Reincarnation Martial Soul".

  "Zhuā qí! I really didn't come for you!" Chi Xiao shouted with some urgency.

  Chi Yan was confident that he could handle the paws, but it was difficult to take care of the people above the swamp. If everyone sank into the swamp, with the paws around, except for him and Xia Xinyan, everyone else would surely die!

  "Shi Yan, come here, I'll keep you safe!" Xia Xinyan gave Shi Yan a cold glance, her tone devoid of any emotion.

  Han Feng and Ku Long stared at Xia Xinyan with a look of confusion and slight surprise on their faces.

  Wu Yunlian and Zuo Shimei exchanged a glance, also puzzled, unable to understand why Xia Xinyan wanted to protect Shi Yan, which clearly defied logic.

  At this time, Shi Yan didn't dare to pretend to be a good man, he hurriedly jumped on the dry land and quickly arrived at Xia Xinyan's side.

  "Kagi!"

  The red cloud was shocked and hastily said: "There is a 'Tianmen' in the Absolute Yin Valley! I really came for the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake! You quickly stop!"

  "What?" Zhang Qi was shocked and cried out strangely: "Tianmen?"

  "Hmm, we got a treasure map, and the location of the heavenly gate drawn on it is actually in the Valley of Extreme Yin!" Chi Xiao could only explain the reason.

  Zhuā qí just stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly let out a strange laugh.

  He smiled strangely at the same time, and the green mist in the sky moved quietly again, and actually moved from above everyone's head to another place.

  The green mist dispersed, and those poisonous rainwaters also stopped completely.

  One by one, the mud dragons rushed towards the crowd, but at mid-air, they suddenly turned into muddy water and fell back into the center of the swamp.

  Hundreds of green otters, who had also rushed up earlier, saw that the mud dragons had all disappeared and stopped. At a loud whistle from Claw Ji, these green otters sank into the swamp one after another.

  He stopped in his tracks.

  Chi Yan let out a breath of relief and stretched out his hand towards the sky to grab it, that "Silver Silk Curtain" slowly shrank again, finally falling into his palm.

  The swamp returned to calmness, and even the green bubbles that emerged with a "gurgling" sound disappeared one after another. The originally treacherous swamp suddenly became peaceful.

  "I knew you also wanted to deal with the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake." Chi Xiao snorted, his anger surging as he said: "If you withdraw your hand too slowly, I guarantee you won't be able to leave unscathed!"

  While speaking, Chi Xiao glanced at Xia Xinyan.

  Chi Xiao was already fearless of Claw Ji, and if Xia Xinyan, who had entered the realm of Tian, were to join forces with him, Claw Ji would really be in trouble.

  Zhuā qí followed Chi Xi's gaze towards Xia Xinyan, his eyebrows also slightly furrowed.

  He also felt a terrifying power from Xia Xinyan's body that was slowly fading away.

  Just a glance, and Kaki realized that this woman was not easy to mess with, and she must have just used some kind of secret technique.

  Shi Yan's face was gloomy, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xia Xinyan, vigilantly watching Piao Qi, still not daring to relax.

  Xia Xinyan glanced at Shi Yan beside her, her expression calm and serene, and said lightly: "Mr. Chi Xiao, can you introduce us to the master of this Dead Silence Swamp?"

  "He is just half a master."

  Chi Xiao shook his head and glanced at the ill-tempered Paw Qi, saying: "Paw Qi is active in the outer reaches of the Dead Silence Swamp, where there are swampy areas and toxic miasma. That's considered his territory. However, once you enter the central area of the Dead Silence Swamp, the Absolute Yin Flatland, that's the domain of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake. There, he won't have a turn to be in charge."

  "Chi Xiao! Even the absolute darkness is mine!" Claw Ji suddenly shouted, "My father was cultivating there back then, I will take it back sooner or later!"

  "We'll talk about it when you get it back." Chi Xiao snorted, nodded at Xia Xinyan and said, "Miss Xia, you can go ashore first."

  "Hmm." Xia Xinyan nodded and furrowed her brow, giving Shi Yan a glance before saying lightly, "You go first."

  "Oh."

  Shi Yan casually replied, his body jumping on the dry ground in front of him as he slowly ran towards a large patch of muddy land in the swamp ahead, and soon reached the shore.

  Zhuā qí grunted, and his mud-covered body quickly swept through the swamp, soon reaching the edge of the muddy ground. However, half of his body still hadn't left the swamp, as if he was still somewhat skeptical of Chi Xi's words.

  "Shi Yan, how's your body? The fresh blood of the Green Wolf Beast, has it hurt you? Do you want to let Claw Ji help you deal with it?" Chi Xiao suddenly remembered something and shouted loudly.

  Shi Yan stood there, looked down at his palm, smiled and shook his head, saying "It's nothing."

  The undying martial soul in his body had quietly eliminated all the acid poison.

  As soon as he said this, Chi Xiao and Zhao Qi looked at him with a hint of surprise.

  Only the two of them knew that a warrior who had been stained with the blood of the green wolf would be powerless for at least a day and would have difficulty recovering quickly.

  Han Feng and his group didn't know the ferocity of the Green Scale Beast's blood, hearing Shi Yan say so, they didn't take it to heart, and continued on their way towards the shore.

  Soon, Zuo Shi and Han Feng's group also came up onto the muddy ground one after another, emerging from the marsh.

  "Chi Xiao, have you really come for Jiu Tou Tian She?" asked Pao Qi, half of his body shrinking into the swamp, looking up to ask.

  "Uh-huh, don't mess with the following journey, if you want me to deal with the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake, it's best for you to clear the way ahead." Chi Xiao nodded.

  "Alright! You want to deal with the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake, I'm more than happy to help." Kaki was very cooperative this time. "I'll smoothly send you all to the Absolute Yin Flat Land, but I also need to go there. The Absolute Yin Flat Land used to be my father's cultivation place, and I'm most familiar with it. If you want to find the Heavenly Gate, I can definitely help."

  "You want to deal with the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake and also enter the Heavenly Gate to take a look?" Chi Xiao hummed.

  Zhuā Qí also didn't deny, nodding and smiling strangely, "You also know the abilities of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake. Just relying on you wanting to deal with it is still a bit difficult. I'll help you guys out, let me follow you into the Heavenly Gate together, this is a win-win situation."

  "Miss Xia, what do you think?"

  Chi Xiao didn't respond to Jue Qi's words, but instead looked at Xia Xinyan and explained: "Jue Qi and the Nine-Headed Sky Snake are sworn enemies. The outer perimeter of the Silent Marsh is all within his sphere of influence. With him leading the way, we won't encounter any more trouble from now on. Having him with us also increases our chances of dealing with the Nine-Headed Sky Snake."

  "Hmm." Xia Xinyan nodded lightly after a moment of contemplation.

  "Alright, I'll let you off this once." Chi Xiao finally replied.

  "Heh heh, you guys definitely won't regret this decision." Rakka's expression twisted into a grotesque grin, but then he suddenly froze again and asked: "Akatsuki, didn't you also invite someone?"

  "No." Chi Xiao was stunned for a moment, "It's just us few."

  "Why was there another strong man in the Tianwei realm seven days ago, who brought some masters into the Dead Silence Swamp?" Claw Ji asked: "I killed some of his men and fought a battle with him, only to find out that he had the cultivation of Tianwei Realm. I've never left the Dead Silence Swamp and don't know who he is, but he's very powerful, no worse than you. He should have entered the Absolute Yin Plain by now."

  "A strong man at the level of Tianwei!" Chi Xiao's face changed slightly, and he pondered for a moment before saying: "The number of strong men at the Tianwei level in the Lihuo Empire, the Shenyu Empire, and the Shangmeng can be counted on one hand. Who could that person be? Describe his appearance to me!"

  "Very thin and tall, with a pale complexion, as if he had not seen the sun for years. His eyes were long and narrow like willow leaves, practicing a gloomy martial art..." Claw Ji thought for a moment before answering.

  "I don't know who it is either." Chi Xiao fell into thought for a moment, and found that there was no such person in his memory. He shook his head involuntarily and said, "Forget it, he might just be passing by the Dead Swamp occasionally, maybe he's already leaving. But we'd better be careful anyway."

  "Come on, I'll lead the way and take you into the land of absolute darkness."

  Paul finally got ashore, his lower body's two legs were also covered with green scales, he seemed to be not very good at walking, his two legs moved forward and looked a bit awkward, like a duck coming ashore.

  However, everyone has seen his ability in the silent swamp, although they think his walking posture is a bit ridiculous, but they also dare not show it.

  Zhuo Ji was indeed the master of the desolate swamp's outskirts, and wherever he passed, the poisonous miasma dispersed.

  Many must-visit places have marshes that will suddenly produce flat and dry land, allowing people to pass through unimpeded, no longer worrying about getting stuck in the marsh.

  The shortcut saved everyone a lot of trouble. What was originally supposed to be a month-long journey was completed in just eight days.

  Eight days later, the group finally set foot on the absolute yin flat land.
