Chapter 2899

The fifth- and sixth-order monster beasts were not taken seriously by a group of Emperor Venerable Realm cultivators. With a wave of their hands, they killed a large number of them. The bodies of the monster beasts burst open and turned into a stream of blood flowing into the swamp. Instead of scaring away the remaining companions, it instead further stimulated their ferocity, and more and more monster beasts pounced from the ground.

The shrill chirping sound never stopped for a moment. At a certain moment, these chaotic chirping sounds suddenly became unified. Tens of thousands of chirping sounds converged into a sound wave, forming a visible shock wave that enveloped the seven people.

The leading Yang Tai was on full alert and shouted loudly, “Hurry up and leave！”

The expressions of Hua Yulu and Wu Kuangyi also became a lot more solemn.

Just when the other people were confused, a strange scene appeared.

After the shrill chirping sounds resonated, the auras on the monster beasts from under the swamp actually began to be closely connected together, rapidly climbing from the fifth- and sixth-order level to the seventh- and eighth-order level or even higher.

Yang Kai casually launched an attack and, taking advantage of his spare time, took a look downward. Immediately, he saw a scene that made him marvel.

I saw that the overwhelming monster beasts were actually gradually merging together, as if they were originally parts disassembled from a huge monster, and now they had obtained a certain opportunity to recombine.

A monster over ten zhang long suddenly appeared in Yang Kai’s field of vision. This monster had two horns on its head, was covered in scales all over its body, and had eight claws. It resembled a flood dragon but was not a flood dragon, and its appearance was extremely strange. At this moment, it was no longer at the level of only five or six ranks, but was exuding the aura of a tenth-rank monster.

More and larger monsters were circling and chasing below.

Yang Kai felt the auras of several twelfth-rank monsters, and there were countless eleventh-rank and tenth-rank ones.

Those five or six-rank monsters that were not taken seriously by the Emperor Venerable Jing cultivators actually had the strange ability to fuse with each other and grow stronger, and the speed of their melting and changing was simply beyond imagination.

To be able to survive in such an environment, these monsters really couldn’t be underestimated.

With a rumbling sound, these huge monsters wander and chased on the ground, their heads raise high Open their mouths and biting at the several people in the sky. A fishy smell came out from their huge mouths. After one unsuccessful strike, they actually sprayed out balls of colorful light from their mouths.

Yang Kai could see clearly that those balls of light were clearly transformed from the poisonous miasma that they had swallowed before. Even if it was a twelfth-rank monster, Yang Kai could face it calmly, but he couldn’t ignore this extremely powerful poisonous miasma.

The expressions of the other six people also changed drastically. They all sacrificed their secret treasures to protect their bodies.

Compared with the others, Yang Kai didn’t have any defensive secret treasures to use. The only thing he had was the Flying Hong Ink Dragon Armor, which was of the Emperor Treasure level, but it was mainly used to cover his body after dragon transformation. Yang Kai had never thought of using it to resist any damage. Helpless, he could only urge his Emperor Yuan to form a layer of protection around his body.

The balls of poison miasma flew over one after another. Most of them were scattered by the joint efforts of everyone, and a few hit everyone’s secret treasures and also dissipated. But the strength of the poison miasma was still scalp-numbing.

Several Emperor Treasures flickered with light after blocking the poison miasma, obviously their spirituality was damaged. And the Emperor Yuan that Yang Kai maintained outside his body was also Youdaoplaceholder0, forcing him to continuously urge his strength to maintain his own protection, looking rather in a sorry state.

Everyone fled, having no intention of entangling with these monsters any more.

It seemed like a long time, and it also seemed like just a moment. When everyone rushed into a dry land, the poison miasma went around them disappeared without a trace, and the monster that had been chasing them suddenly stopped as if there was something in the front of them that made them afraid. They kept wander on the edge of the poison miasma staring at everyone with their huge eyes.

“It’s okay to be here.” Yang Tai said with a smile, obviously relieved, and pointed at those beasts and said, “Those things won’t chase over. I don’t know what the reason is.”

The monsters gathering at the edge of the toxic miasma only remained vigilant for a while before collapsing with a crash. They once again transformed into two-foot-long creatures with only the aura of the fifth or sixth rank, and then walk back along the original path, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was looking around at the place where they were located.

This was a dry piece of land. The appearance of such a place in the Southern Marsh was extremely unusual because the Southern Marsh was full of puddles and swamps everywhere. This piece of land was like an isolated island in the vast ocean.

The area of the small island was not large, only about dozens of miles in circumference, and all around was the kind of toxic miasma that even the Emperor Venerable Realm would shy away from. If everyone had not entered through the path by those monsters, they probably would not have had the opportunity to come here.

Yang Tai’s expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, “That ancient cave mansion is right here.”

Although his expression was serious, there was a hint of fanaticism in his eyes that was difficult to hide.

Wu Kuangyi’s expression was also slightly excited: “Last time, Brother Yang and I, as well as Palace Master Hua, obtained some benefits inside, but were blocked by a prohibition array. This time, we have more people, and with the help of Patriarch Gong, it should not be a problem to break that prohibition array.

Gong Yue smiled modestly： “The old man will do his best.”

“First, I would like to express my gratitude to Patriarch Gong.” Wu Kuangyi bowed towards him and then said, “What I want to remind everyone is that when we enter the ancient cave later, don’t touch things randomly and don’t walk around randomly. We will follow Patriarch Gong. There are still many remaining ban in the cave. Although they are old, they still have great power. If we accidentally touch them, some unnecessary consequences may be triggered.”

When he said these words, he deliberately or unintentionally glanced at Yang Kai, as if he was specifically saying them to him.

Yang Kai had a look of being, which made Wu Kuangyi’s face look a little unpleasant.

“All right, all right. Everyone is not a child and knows what to do. Let’s set off now.” Yang Tai smiled and greeted everyone, leading the team towards the location of the ancient cave.

The arrangement order of the team did not change, and Yang Kai and Hua Yulu were still at the rear.

“Brother Yang, if there are really any treasures, if we can snatch them, we will snatch them. If we can’t snatch them, “we won’t force it. We just come to broaden our horizons.” Hua Yulu secretly.

“Hmm.” Yang Kai subconsciously replied, a little out of state.

This inevitably worried Hua Yulu. No one knew if there was any danger behind the prohibition. If there is really any danger with Yang Kai’s current state, I’m afraid it would be more dangerous. She had the intention to remind him, but it was not easy to speak up, so she could only secretly make up her mind to be careful herself.

Yang Kai was indeed somewhat out of sorts. Ever since setting foot on this landmass, he had a most peculiar feeling, as if there was something somewhere on this landmass that was contacting him. But when he went to investigate, he found nothing. He couldn’t even detect from which direction that connection was coming from.

This left him completely baffled. When Wu Kuangyi, Hua Yulu, and the others were speaking to him, he was busy trying to figure out this situation, so he seemed rather absent-minded.

The landmass wasn’t large. In just a short while, everyone arrived at a stone forest. Here, there were over a dozen stone pillars of different heights standing upright. The surfaces of the stone pillars were mottled, bearing the marks of the erosion of time. They seemed to be arranged chaotically, but if one looked carefully, one would discover that the arrangement of these stone pillars seemed to have great significance.

If one stared at them for a while longer, these stone pillars were even slowly moving, and the speed of their movement was getting faster and faster, gradually becoming dazzling.

Anyone could see that this stone forest was extremely problematic.

Perhaps in the distant past, this place was an extremely hidden entrance. Even if a powerhouse comparable to a Great Emperor Realm passed by here, they would definitely not discover anything. But the outermost restriction here had been in disrepair for a long time, and its effect would always weaken a great deal, which was why many traces had been exposed.

“Follow me!” Yang Tai took the lead. After greeting everyone he directly walked towards the very center of the stone forest without caring about anything else.

And in full view of everyone, he seemed to pass through an invisible wall. After walking through the middle of the stone forest, his entire person disappeared strangely.

“Interesting, interesting！” Gong Yue stroked his long beard, observing with great interest, his eyes bright. Obviously, he had discovered something, but he didn’t go into a detailed explanation. Instead, he stepped forward.

A moment later, Gong Yue also disappeared.

Then it was Fang Zhuo and Wu Kuangyi’s turn.

When it was Hua Yulu’s turn, she turned around and instructed: “Brother Yang, you have to keep up.”

Yang Kai smiled at her and said, “I will follow you closely.”

Hua Yulu then walked forward with confidence.

Finally, it was Yang Kai’s turn. When crossing that invisible boundary, he clearly felt a sense of crossing the void. The prohibition in the middle of the stone forest should have the effect of a teleportation array.

The several people who came in first were all here, and the place where they were located seemed to be a grotto. The grotto was only a dozen feet in circumference, the air was dry, and there was a bit of a bad smell, but it wasn’t too difficult to endure.

There was some dim light coming from the surrounding cave walls, which were strange stones for lighting.

However, the years were too long, and most of these strange stones had already lost their effectiveness. The ones that were still functioning were also like candles in the wind, looking as if they might go out at any time.

There was nothing else in the grotto, it was empty, and no one knew what this grotto was used for in ancient times.

“This wasn’t the place we entered last time.” The leading Yang Tai looked around for a while, scratched his head, and had an embarrassed expression on his face.

Wu Kuangyi and Hua Yulu also nodded. The three of them indeed didn’t enter this grotto when they came in from that stone forest last time.

Gong Yue smiled and said, That stone forest is a restriction that controls the entrance. We don’t have a way to control it. Even if we are lucky to enter we just enter a random place. Anyway, we are all inside the cave. Let’s walk around and take a look. We will always find the right way, and maybe we can also discover something that you didn’t find last time.”

When Yang Tai heard this, his eyes lit up and he nodded and said, “Brother Gong is right. Then let’s go now.”

As he spoke, he walked out first, and the others followed closely behind.

After walking out of the grotto, there was a deep and secluded corridor in front. Like in the grotto, there were some strange stones for lighting and decoration on the surrounding cave walls. Although the light was not good, it was better than nothing.
