Ji Ning and his group rode three black qilin beasts, charging out of the edge of the mountain forest.

  "Look." Dala Shu pointed ahead, "Thats Dongshanze up front."

  "Dongshan Ze."

  Ji Ning looked far into the distance.

  All that can be seen is the endless expanse of the great marsh, a vast and boundless sea, reflecting beautiful colors under the warm sunlight of spring. Even at a glance, one can see some flying birds swooping down to catch fish in their beaks, and amidst the lush aquatic plants, some giant aquatic creatures can be seen swishing their tails, occasionally revealing a huge head, this is the realm of monsters!

  "Dongshanze." Ji Ning muttered, "Finally arrived!"

  Dongshan Ze is located between the Ji and Tie Mu families. The Tie Mu family is a powerful force equal to the Ji family, but they have an antagonistic relationship with the Ji family!

  Dongshan Ze has a vast expanse of thousands of miles, comparable to the territory of an entire province in ancient times. Such a large swamp... naturally gathered many monsters and demons. The number of monsters known to the Ji family alone is as many as twelve!

  Since leaving Xifucheng, Ji Ning has been wanting to fight against the early-stage Daoyao of the Innate Spirit. However, the Daoyaos are hiding in the deep mountains and forests, how can they be found so easily? Previously, he had searched for a place and lay in wait for nearly a month without finding any, in a fit of anger Ji Ning decisively changed his route and headed straight to Dongshanze!

  "There are many monsters in Dongshanze, and most of them are early-stage innate spirits. I dont believe we wont run into one." Ji Ning was a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, but he also didnt dare to be careless, because many of his clan members had died in Dongshanze, including his own grandfather!

  ……

  "Mo Wu, autumn leaves." Ji Ning jumped off the black panther and ordered at the same time, "Dongshan Ze is too dangerous, with crises lurking everywhere. This black panther is useless in Dongshan Ze. You two take these three black panthers to Tieshi tribe. Wait for me at Tieshi tribe!"

  Mo Wu and Autumn Leaf exchanged a glance, and could only respectfully reply: "Yes, young master."

  "Alright." Ji Ning looked at the tall and dark man beside him, "You come with me to explore the Great Marsh, show me around some of the main areas, and then Ill return with you to rest in the Ironstone Tribe."

  "Yes, young master." Dala Shu also respectfully replied.

  "Go."

  Ji Ning walked forward directly, and Dala Uncle, who was carrying a large axe, followed closely behind. Autumn Leaf and Mo Wu sent off their young master towards the distant Dongshan Ze, although they were anxious, there was nothing they could do. The two of them, one serving the young master and the other imparting his rich experience in the mountains to the young master, were far inferior to Ji Ning in terms of strength.

  Vast and beautiful wetlands, lovely and diverse.

  "This vast marsh also has muddy land, water and grass. Dala Shu smiled and said, "There are even small hills, of course, more are bogs that sink in one step... And the widest and deepest lakes that cannot be measured. The roads in this marsh are the most difficult to walk, and if youre not careful, you may step into the bog."

  Ji Ning followed beside him.

  "Our Tie Shi tribe has been living in the mountains and forests beside the big marsh for hundreds of years, often coming to fish. The roads that can be walked and those that cannot be walked inside this big marsh are all very clear." Dala Shu said confidently.

  Bang! Bang!

  Trampling through the muddy water, Ji Ning also followed this tribes Han man into Dongshan Ze.

  "Take a look." Ji Nings hand appeared out of thin air with a beast skin paper and handed it over, "This is the map of Dongshan Ze, take me to these circled places."

  "Ah." Dala Shu took one look and was startled, "These, these are all places where great demons lurk, the most dangerous places, weve never dared to approach them before."

  "Dont get close." Ji Ning shook her head. "Just take me there and tell me from a distance, thats enough."

  Dala Shu touched the sweat beads on his forehead and nodded: "Alright, Ill take you there."

  ******

  Dongshan Marsh is really too big, and its indeed very slow to move forward with only two legs. Adding that Ji Ning went to various places here and there, the route of walking around had thousands of miles, fortunately, there was Dala Uncle who was familiar with a path to guide him, so he could walk easily in this marsh.

  Its been over a month now.

  Eat and drink, Jing Ning carried a portable stove with him, and he could also roast some demon meat to eat. Sleep was also casual, finding a mound or a thicket to settle down. Jing Ning didnt rush to provoke the large demons lurking around, but first confirmed his location. From now on, he would be alone outside, relying on his "Heavenly Unity" movement technique, which allowed him to walk on water, covering thousands of miles in just one day.

  "Thats the last place." Dala pointed to the distance, where the lush water grasses swayed in the wind, "Right in the thickest part of the water grass, a big demon is lurking. I heard its a huge rhinoceros, like a small mountain, a giant water rhinoceros."

  "Alright, lets head back. Once we return to Tie Shi tribe, I will definitely thank you heavily." Ji Ning said from the side.

  "The young master has given me enough." said Uncle Dala.

  This seemingly delicate young man is actually terrifying. In more than a months time in Dongshan Ze, he has been attacked by many demon beasts, but those demon beasts all died with one sword in front of him! Ji Ning didnt care about the corpses of those demon beasts, while Uncle Dala was heartbroken. These are all meat from demon beasts, selling them can make the tribe live a better life, and he alone cannot carry it away, so he can only cut off some key parts to bring back.

  "Huh?" Ji Ning and Uncle Dala suddenly looked into the distance.

  In the distance, on top of a mound, there were faintly visible many human figures.

  In the depths of the great marsh, there is muddy land, swampy land, and even mountainous land, and there is also a high mountain. This high mountain is called Dongshan, so this great marsh is called Dongshan Marsh.

  In the distance, on a hill adjacent to the lake, hundreds of people gathered. Suddenly, ten figures rushed over, rushing towards Chi Ning and Dala Shu.

  "Whats going on?" Ji Ning frowned and looked over.

  "Lets go quickly." But Uncle Dala was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run away.

  Splash!

  Among the ten people who rushed over, one of them wore a green armor and galloped over, his speed was astonishing, directly blocking Dalas escape route.

  "You two." The man in the cyan armor glanced at them indifferently, his eyes lingering slightly on the exquisite beast skin clothes tailored to Ji Nings body before losing interest. "Follow us!"

  "I wonder what you want us to do?" Dala Shu asked respectfully, bowing his head and seeing the armor of the other party.

  The other nine also came over, each wearing armor.

  "Hurry up and follow us! If you dont, youll die here!" These armored guards were all expressionless, holding their weapons with obvious training.

  Dala Shu looked at Ji Ning.

  "Go take a look first." Ji Ning spoke calmly, the armored guards in front of him were not ordinary, but to himself, they were just like local chickens and dogs... But why did these armored guards want to take him away? If it wasnt necessary, Ji Ning wouldnt easily start killing.

  "Go."

  "Hurry up."

  Under the gaze of ten Jia Wei, Ji Ning and Dala Shu walked towards that mound together.

  On the mound, there were some weeds, and at this moment, hundreds of people gathered. Many people were tied up with their hands and feet lying on the ground, and about a hundred armored guards stood around them. In the center was a stone chair, and on the stone chair sat a tall and majestic man. The man was as high as a zhang (about 3 meters), wearing thick armor, with an overbearing gaze.

  Ji Ning was startled and looked at the heavily armored giant sitting in the center, who had a demon stone in his arms that was starting to heat up, apparently sensing the demonic energy. Ji Ning also faintly felt that the tall and heavily armored man surrounded by the armor guards in front of him had an extraordinary aura.

  "There is a great demon." Ji Ning carefully scanned past.

  Surrounded by people, its undoubtedly a great demon that can transform into human form!

  This time, I brought many items with me, and the demon stone is one of them. The demon stone... is a kind of natural special stone that glows and heats up when it senses demonic energy. In some cities larger than Xifucheng, there are demon-revealing mirrors hanging at the city gates. The demon-revealing mirror is made from polished demon stones, and as soon as demons approach, the mirror will emit a glow.

  There is human charm, and demons naturally have demonic charm. The "charm" here actually refers to the breath of life.

  "Arrived!"

  "Uncle Dala!"

  Suddenly several shouts rang out.

  Dala turned his head to look, only to see that the bound people, more than a dozen in number, were all from his own tribe. "Hei Hu, how did you end up being tied up here?" he asked, his face filled with anxiety.

  "Ada, how did you end up here too? That giant is a big monster, it will eat us one by one!" A tribesman who was tied up shouted anxiously.

  "Great demon?" Dala Bo exclaimed in surprise.

  Ji Ning, however, was gazing at a giant heavily armored man sitting in the center, surrounded by a group of Acala guards. Upon closer inspection, one could notice that there were still bloodstains on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to be savoring something with great satisfaction. This stirred up Ji Nings killing intent: "So the powerful demon my demonic stone sensed is him! There are twelve powerful demons in Dongshan Marsh; I wonder which one he is."

  "Shut up." A guard walked over and kicked at the bound people, kicking wildly. "All of you shut up."

  "For the great demons harm to human kin, and yet you silence me?"

  "Youre still the proud Ironwood clans elite guard, but youre truly disgracing the Ironwood clan!"

  "Kick us, kick us to death."

  The people who were kicked went crazy shouting.

  "Halt." The heavily armored giant sitting on the wide stone chair had a thunderous voice, very low and deep, like the sound of a conch shell being blown, "You kick me to death, Ill eat you."

  Jia Wei looked at the heavily armored giant and could only reluctantly retreat.

  "Water Rhinoceros King!" The group of green-armored guards led by the bald-headed guard growled, "Weve helped you catch over 500 people already. Our brothers have scattered to capture more, and weve done our best. Return our young master to us, and the Tie Mu clan will pretend this never happened. Otherwise, things will get ugly, Water Rhinoceros King... You should know that you cant withstand the wrath of the Tie Mu clan."

  Ji Nings eyes lit up as he was being watched by two Green Armor Guards from a distance.

  Water Buffalo King?

  The twelve great demons of Dongshan Daze, only one was born from a water buffalo, and it was a pre-birth spirit demon in its early days!

  "Born with spiritual power from the very beginning?" Ji Nings eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent, "Ive been searching for a powerful demon like you for a long time, and its truly fortunate that I didnt have to exert myself at all!"
