“Come on, let’s get out of here! we need to keep going.” Qingfeng Li waved his hand as he, Xue Lin, Mengyao Xu, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the others continued onwards.
After entering the Sun Monarchs Tomb, Qingfeng Li and the others had faced many challenges and danger. However, each time Qingfeng Li kept them safe by killing their enemies.
During this process, Qingfeng Li also obtained many Dharma treasures – not only did he level up his spirit energy, Xue Xin obtained the Eye of the Phoenix, and Sky-Devouring Snake leveled up. Even Black Puppy, Mengyao Xu, and the others gained powers to some extent.
Qingfeng Li and the others came across many self-cultivators along the way, but they all retreated when they saw it was him.
They were all extremely terrified of him; he wasn’t someone who they could mess around with.
Many of the self-cultivators saw for their own eyes how Qingfeng Li killed those powerful enemies. Even Monarch Xie Ming of the Supreme Dynasty had no chance against this man. Qingfeng Li’s powers left them all in horror.
Xue Lin looked at Qingfeng Li. “Honey, why are they all so afraid of you? They’re looking at you like you’re the devil.”
Qingfeng Li smiled faintly, “That’s the point. If they think I’m the devil, they’ll be afraid of us and steer clear.”
Qingfeng Li and the others passed through easily, as all the self-cultivators made way for them.
Soon, they left the canyon and arrived at a swamp.
It was a large swamp, probably a few thousand square kilometers in size. Black mud and water seeped out of it, along with a foul smell.
Gathered by the swamp were hundreds of self-cultivators. They were all talking amongst themselves by the swamp, no one seemed to want to cross it.
“This swamp is terrifying, just now a powerful Monarch-realm self-cultivator tried to fly across it, but the swamp swallowed him right up.”
“Right, he was a well-known cultivator on the Spirit Monarch List, but once he flew up in the air, the swamp sucked him right in, spitting out nothing but his bones.”
“I feel bad for him, and now I don’t want to cross it!”
The self-cultivators all pointed at the pile of white bones in the middle of the swamp as they continued to discuss amongst themselves.
They all sounded terrified, as if they just saw something terrible.
Qingfeng Li looked at where they were all pointing at – the pile of bones in the middle of the swamp was indeed bones of a human.
However, all that was left was the bones, flesh, hair and blood here and there.
Qingfeng Li took one look at the bones and recognized that this person was a self-cultivator of Level 3 Monarch realm; he saw three Monarch’s Laws exuding from the bones.
The bones floated atop the swamp, making the black darker, like a demon ready to swallow anyone up.
As the others saw Qingfeng Li head towards them, they retreated and made way, unwilling to block his.
Xue Lin walked up to Qingfeng Li, her beautiful brows furrowed, “Honey, should we take a detour?”
Qingfeng Li shook his head. “Not yet, I need to see what’s hiding within this swamp.”
He reached out to pick up a giant rock with his right hand. Then, he threw the rock at the swamp with lightning speed.
However, one second later, some sort of gravitational powers formed from within the swamp, and sucked the rock right in.
Then, the rock was broken into a million pieces, vanishing into thin air.
Surprised, Qingfeng Li said, “This swamp has both gravitational and attractive forces. It’s a gravity swamp.”
Qingfeng Li was well learned in gravity and had in hand the monarch level Two Thousand Times Gravity Technique. Therefore, he immediately recognized the swamp for what it was.
Qingfeng Li looked at Xue Lin and said, “Sweetie, just stand here, don’t go near it. If we want to pass through this swamp, we must break through its gravity. Or else, we will all just be sucked into the vortex.”
Then, Qingfeng Li transformed himself into a sharp arrow and flew towards the swamp.
Xue Lin opened her mouth to call out to him, but she stopped herself; she didn’t want to distract him.
Qingfeng Li employed wind-type wings, transforming him into a steak of blue wind as fast as lightning. He floated up into the air in a split second.
As Qingfeng Li landed above the swamp, he felt an enormous gravitational force that was pulling him into the swamp.
Circulating the vital essence in his body, he employed great power in an attempt to protect himself from the gravity. Yet, he couldn’t.
With a loud bang and to everyone’s surprise, Qingfeng Li was immediately sucked into the swamp.
Glug Glug Glug Glug…
The mud and black water inside the Gravity Swamp began surrounding Qingfeng Li.
Xue Lin’s expression changed as she saw what happened in shock – she thought that her husband was powerful enough to resist the gravity.
Xue Lin shifted forward, wanting to go save Qingfeng Li. Just then, Mengyao Xu walked up to her and grabbed Xue Lin by the arm with her right hand.
Xue Lin frowned, “What are you doing? I need to go help him!”
Mengyao Xu shook her head, “Have you forgotten? Qingfeng Li knows gravity techniques. He probably wanted to be sucked into the bottom of the swamp, because then he’ll know what’s hidden under it. Neither one of us knows any gravity techniques, we’re of no help to him.”
Xue Lin thought about what Mengyao Xu said for a moment – she was right, worrying about him might have distracted her from thinking logically.
She stood there, but her face was still filled with worry. She felt the horrific powers of the Gravity Swamp.
However, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake didn’t seem to worry at all about Qingfeng Li. They were so confident that a “small” Gravity Swamp was no match for him.
