Chapter 1175: Toxic Mist
most urgent task wasn't the remaining three long dragons, but the inscribed gold pillar. As long as he remained trapped inside, the pressure within the barrier would continue to increase. It wouldn't...Chapter 1175: Swamp Gas
Chapter 1,175: Malaria
After hanging up the phone, the women rushed to the location mentioned in the call.
When they saw the scene before them, they all gasped in shock.
"How did a chasm appear here"
"Luckily, it's emitting poisonous gas outwards!"
"This big How deep is it down there"
They all gasped.
Look, there's a pit in front of us with a diameter of a hundred meters. Looking down into the pit, it's pitch black and bottomless. What's most terrifying is that this area was originally emitting deep red miasma from the cracks in the earth.
Though the cause was unclear previously, by gathering the collective energy of numerous warriors, it could be barely contained.
However, the miasma is no longer seeping out through cracks in the ground. It is now constantly surging outward from the depths of the abyss. Both its concentration and scale are far beyond anything we have seen before.
That is to say, warriors, if ordinary people were here, as long as they inhaled a breath of miasma, they would immediately die.
Huang Fuqing's face was icy cold. After all, she was the leader of the Long Group, responsible for all the strange events in Daxia, and this was the key point she was in charge of during this earthquake.
Things are not getting better, they're getting worse! This is a huge deal!
“First, we need to gather everyone's strength and seal the entrance. We can discuss the rest later!”
She quickly issued the command.
If it is not blocked in time, and the miasma continues to erupt and spread outward, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Over a dozen members of the Lung Clan surrounding the abyss nodded rapidly, dispersing around the chasm while their inner energy surged outward. Their energies mingled above the opening, forming a thin membrane.
Just a few dozen seconds completely covered.
However.
The membrane quickly began to expand, like a balloon constantly getting bigger.
"This..."
Everyone was astonished once again. Their qi, which had been perfectly able to block everything before, now couldn't. It seemed that if this continued, the membrane would burst apart.
"I'm coming!"
Shangguan Rou's hand rose, and spiritual energy swiftly leaked out. Although she hadn't reached the peak of the Great Ascension realm, her cultivation was still at the highest level among cultivators. The released spiritual energy was simply incomparable to that of the Long Group martial artists.
Just a moment.
The membrane stretched downward, completely covering the abyss above. The membrane was transparent, allowing a clear view of the crimson miasma churning beneath.
"This... why is there such a huge abyss here Does the Long Zu have any records about this place" Yin Chuchu asked solemnly.
Just find the root cause and it'll be fine.
Huangfu Qing shook her head: “I went through the Long Group’s files a few days ago, there is no mention of it here. I’ve had people look for any clues in all the records, but so far we haven’t found anything.”
A heavy silence fell upon the crowd. There were no findings, meaning they had absolutely no leads!
Difficult
Just then.
"Look!" Yin Susu pointed towards the abyss.
Everyone looked over and was instantly chilled to the bone. They saw that the membrane, formed by Shangguan Ruo's escaping spiritual energy, was also beginning to expand outwards!
"This... how is this possible" Shangguan Rou was incredulous. She was a great cultivator, even the most powerful miasma shouldn't be able to break through her spiritual energy!
However, the fact remains that it is about to break through.
Whoosh!
YúnLíng'er and Tó'ěr, who had been silent for a long time, also quickly made their move. They didn't hold back on their spiritual energy and poured it into the wound.
The miasma was once again sealed away.
"This isn't a solution. If we just block it, we can stop it for a while, but not forever. We need to come up with a strategy to solve this completely!" Qin Mulan said solemnly.
Huangfu Qing also understood this point. Currently, the three of them were relying on Shangguan Rou to block it. Even if they could block it, it meant that the three of them would have to stay here all the time, not to mention that their spiritual energy would eventually run out!
Zheng Se said, "The miasma here is constantly emanating. There must be a source of miasma below. Therefore, the fundamental solution is to block its source."
As soon as the words were spoken.
"Team leader, I'm willing to go and check it out!"
"Team leader, I'm also willing to go take a look!"
"All of you, stop arguing! My cultivation is the highest, I'll go!"
The members of the Dragon Group spoke up one after another. Even though the depths below were unfathomable, they were not afraid.
Huangfu Qing thought for a moment, finally nodded her head, and looked at a team leader, instructing: "You go check it out, be sure to pay attention to safety, if you find something is wrong, come back immediately, safety first."
The team leader solemnly said: "Team leader, rest assured, I only know my limits!"
OK, finished.
The team leader leaped into the air and arrived above the abyss.
Shangguan Rou and the three women looked at each other, then quickly retracted their spiritual energy.
It was just a moment.
The miasma that had accumulated below erupted simultaneously, no longer a deep crimson but with a hint of blackness!
"Pffft..."
The squad leader, stepping onto the platform, was immediately hit by the miasma and had blood spurting from his nostrils. He offered no resistance as he was overwhelmed by the noxious fumes, blood streaming from all seven orifices before collapsing in mid-air.
It wasn't just him, members with lower cultivation standing around the abyss also felt dizzy, shortness of breath.
"No, retreat quickly!" Huangfu Qing cried in alarm.
The lethality of the miasma far exceeded her expectations.
Qin Mulan was quick-witted and agile. Seeing the squad leader about to fall into the abyss, she leaped swiftly into the air, catching him just before he fell.
Shangguan Rou and the three women once again leaked spiritual energy, sealing it tightly.
"Pfft…"
"Ugh..."
Members of the Zhou Wei gang began to bleed and vomit, some even falling into a coma.
"This... how could this be The miasma is actually so strong"
He Yuting was full of astonishment. Although her cultivation level was low, she stood beside Yun Ling'er and the other three women without inhaling the miasma.
"This miasma is very unusual, its toxicity is too great, I've never heard of anything like it before!" Yin Chuchu was also shaken, luckily everyone reacted quickly. If they had waited another ten or so seconds, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Huang Fuqing's forehead was covered in sweat. She didn't have time to be nervous and immediately ordered: "All members who can stand up, immediately take the poisoned members away from the rescue area, and simultaneously contact headquarters. Leave only the necessary personnel, and everyone else come here immediately!"
"Yes!"
"Xiao Rou, Ling'er, Tuo'er, I'll have to trouble you to continue the blockade. With Dragon Group's current strength, we can't hold out."
Three women naturally wouldn't refuse, nodding at the same time.
Yin Chuchu and Yin Susu also quickly released their qi, helping to share the pressure.
"I had someone bring me spirit stones!"
"I contacted Danzong to send qi-replenishing pills..."
Gu Ziqi and He Yuting said solemnly.
Qin Mulan said gravely, "I'll also send some masters from the War Department to help out. For now, just leave it to you guys!"
She finished speaking and immediately turned around.
This is not an escape, but a retreat to evacuate the crowd. At this moment, we must make the worst-case plan.
Once the organization was complete, all the women united as one.
……..
At the foot of Changshan Mountain, in a guesthouse.
Ye Fusheng and Nan Qianhua are having a meal.
Ye Fusheng habitually added dishes for Nan Qianhua, and Nan Qianhua no longer refused.
The two of them looked like a loving couple who truly lived by the saying "food doesn't speak".
Finished eating.
Ye Fu Sheng got up and cleared the dishes. Although the past two days had been mechanical, they were also very fulfilling. He felt a long-lost sense of tranquility.
"I'll do it."
Nán Qiān Huà slowly opened her mouth.
Ye Fu Sheng was stunned. "What did you say"
It wasn't that I hadn't heard, but that I didn't believe it. Nankichi hadn't spoken to me proactively these past two days.
Nán Qiān snatched the bowl from his hand and turned to walk toward the kitchen, saying as she went, “Later, you and I will go somewhere!”a dense throng of footsteps outside, and two figures floated forward in the air.They were clearly lost."Where did it go""The spot where it just disappeared is right in this area.""It must be within a...
