Chapter 32 32, Sky Poison Swamp
"I see, no wonder..." After hearing Xiao Yan's story, Yao Lao also suddenly realized why Xiao Yan was out of control before, "I said this place is obviously a forest area, there is not half a swamp, but why is there a sky? The name Poison Swamp turns out to be because of this neurotoxin.”
Indeed, people who are infected by this kind of neurotoxin and indulge in hallucinations are not like falling into a swamp by mistake, sinking deeper and deeper, and finally being completely swallowed by it. Even Xiao Yan, although he broke free from the poison produced by the neurotoxin, It's an illusion, but if it weren't for Yao Lao's help, I'm afraid I would have almost fallen here.
Strange fire can isolate most toxins in the world, but this neurotoxin alone cannot do this, because it will not cause any harm to the poisoned person, but will only make people addicted to it. Therefore, strange fire The function of autonomous body protection cannot react to this neurotoxin. Of course, this is also the reason why Xiao Yan's current strength is too weak. If his strength can be stronger or prepared in advance, this so-called neurotoxin It won't do anything to him either.
"Teacher, how are you doing now?" Xiao Yan continued to ask.
"In this forest, there seems to be a huge restriction on soul power. My soul power consumption here is more than a hundred times that of the outside world. You were trapped by those black vines for two hours. During this period, you were trapped by those black vines. It is my soul power that is protecting you, and now I have very little soul power left." Yao Lao sighed, with an unconcealable weakness in his voice, "I'm afraid that soon, I will be like I fell into a deep sleep like that before.”
"I will find a way to help you restore your soul power as soon as possible." Xiao Yan was silent for a while, and finally said slowly.
"Haha... I don't doubt this. After all, your performance has always satisfied me, but in the next period of time, I'm afraid you will have to go alone." Yao Lao's voice became weaker and weaker.
Just when the voice was about to fall silent, Yao Lao seemed to remember something again, and the rapid and weak voice sounded again.
"By the way, you can also use my ring after I fall asleep. The Baijie Pill I refined before is inside. If you really find the Nether Poison Fire, use it to devour the Nether Poison Fire. The Naling needed to swallow the strange fire is also in the ring. In addition, I also stored some bone spirit cold fire in the ring. If you encounter any danger, you can also use it..."
After saying the last words, Yao Lao's voice never sounded again, and it seemed that he had completely fallen into a deep sleep.
Yao Lao's deep sleep did not make Xiao Yan panic. After all, he was helpless in his previous life. He came here alone. He had long been accustomed to this kind of life, but he lacked someone who could help him carry out the work. Just a tool man.
Moreover, although Yao Lao's sleep also means that he has one less trump card, it also means that Xiao Yan has a higher degree of freedom. He can use many methods or practicing fighting skills that cannot be used in front of Yao Lao. It can be taken out and used, so this matter is not without any benefit to him.
Xiao Yan did not pause for a moment because of Yao Lao's deep sleep. He took out a few Qi Recovery Pills from the Najie and threw them into his mouth. While recovering his fighting spirit, he walked towards the depths of the Sky Poison Swamp. It is clear that this kind of neurotoxin cannot appear in an area like this. There must be something hidden inside the Sky Poison Swamp. Even if it is not the Nether Poison Fire, it must be some kind of rare treasure.
Going deep into the Sky Poison Swamp is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing, and the map he bought outside cannot clearly mark all the routes in the Sky Poison Swamp. The same is true for the other two forbidden areas, but he is there When he was in two places, he could use his soul power to detect the surrounding environment, but in the Sky Poison Swamp, his soul power was greatly restricted. Naturally, he couldn't scan the surroundings at will like before.
However, Xiao Yan also has a special ability that can help him find a way out of the Sky Poison Swamp. More than ten million bloody fights in his previous life, and countless experiences of wandering on the edge of life and death, have given him a kind of ability. Instinct, the ability to sense danger in advance, is not something you are born with, but something you develop over time.
With the help of this instinct, Xiao Yan could easily determine which direction was the most dangerous in the Sky Poison Swamp, and that should be the source of these neurotoxins.
As Xiao Yan continued to go deeper, the surrounding woods gradually became sparse. What finally caught Xiao Yan's eyes was a towering giant tree that was dozens of times larger than the others. That size could even It can match the ancient Bodhi tree that Xiao Yan saw in his previous life.
But what makes him feel a little strange is that such a huge tree can be seen even from a hundred miles away, but before entering the Sky Poison Swamp, he couldn't see this giant tree at all. The tree exists, and there is no sign associated with it on that map.
"It's right here..." After approaching this big tree, Xiao Yan felt that the sense of danger lingering in his heart was extremely strong. In other words, the source of everything was within this big tree. At this moment, Xiao Yan no longer cared about saving his soul power, and immediately mobilized his soul power to scan the big tree.
However, his soul power did not detect any abnormalities, but that strong intuition will not lie. Xiao Yan stood under the big tree, looked at the big black tree, and suddenly thought of something. Possibly, he then opened his palm and summoned the Nine Nether Fire again, throwing it directly towards the black tree.
When the Nine Nether Fire enveloped the big tree, the big tree actually let out a shrill wail. Then, its body began to shrink violently. What finally appeared in front of Xiao Yan was a gray body. A black humanoid skeleton, with a purple flame dancing in its eye sockets, which looked quite strange.
"Kacha!" The skeleton straightened up slowly, and a cloud of gray-black air spread out from its body. Xiao Yan immediately swallowed an antidote pill into his mouth, and then pulled out the Xuan Zhong Ruler. He assumed a fighting stance.
A skeleton that has been dead for who knows how many years is naturally impossible to have the ability to move. Maybe a fighting saint level existence can do this, but naturally there is no fighting saint in this small Izumo Empire, and if it really is As for the bones of the Dou Sheng, just the residual power after death has a strong sense of oppression, but Xiao Yan does not feel any sense of oppression now.
The skeleton cannot move, just as the big tree cannot howl. The only explanation is that they are all parasitized by something, and this thing is the source of the neurotoxin. Maybe the owner of this skeleton It is also an unlucky guy like Xiao Yan, but now Xiao Yan is not interested in caring about its origin. He only knows that the best way to deal with the skeleton is to directly turn it into ashes.
