Chapter 1167 Ancient Heterogeneity (1/2)
Chapter 1167 - Ancient Mutations
This place was no longer the foot of the Nine Serenities Demon Mountain, but the waist of the mountain. Raising his head to look, he could see that the vast expanse of land was covered by a sea of clouds.
In front of him was a lush and verdant forest. There were dense trees that shot up into the sky. There were tall trees and short ones, the tallest ones were at least a hundred meters tall. These trees had a diameter of more than ten meters.
Under the trees, there were countless fallen leaves covered in a thick layer of roots. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
A sense of strangeness came from this forest.
Long Chen naturally understood that in this Nine Serenities Demon Mountain, there were more than just the strange zither notes that blocked his way. According to Li Xuanji, there were a lot of fierce beasts, some of them were even true Goblin Tribes.
Fortunately, as long as they were living beings, Long Chen would be able to grasp their position in advance.
A hundred thousand Young Fighters s came from all directions. In Long Chen's direction, there were mainly warriors from the areas under the jurisdiction of the Shangguan Family of the nine great families, but there were also naturally some from other families who might have deviated from their original route. And the higher they went, the more the people from the various families would gather together.
All of Nine h.e.l.l Demon Area's warriors had gathered here. This was the most grand disciple test of the entire Nine h.e.l.l Demon Area.
Within one Li of Long Chen, there were still people present. These people were all carefully diving deeper into the forest. Long Chen estimated that about a fifth of the way to the summit had already been traveled by now.
His speed was faster than anyone else's by just turning into a bolt of golden lightning. As expected, in the forest, there were a lot of fierce beasts, and most of the fierce beasts in Nine Serenities Demon Mountain were venomous beast s. Along the way, Long Chen saw spiders, scorpions, venomous snakes, and even large sized ferocious beasts, most of them were suffering from extreme pain. These venomous beast may not be high levelled, but because of their poison, they had a terrifying killing ability.
These Iron Spiders were covered up with a huge tree that was as tall as the sky. The color of the tree was similar to the color, and if a normal person had sharp eyes, it would be difficult to find out that there were so many steel needles on the tree. As long as they got close, those thousands of Iron Spiders would charge forward, but the poison would be able to let all of the warriors on the Sixth Stage of the Divine Martial Stage die.
Long Chen had temporarily made this part of the forest into the venomous beast Forest, he was sure that after going through the forest, a large number of warriors would die, after all, among the fierce beasts, the venomous beast was more terrifying.
Many venomous beast, even experts with Divine Martial Stage were unable to resist the poison.
Because Long Chen's speed was too fast and he could clearly see the arrangement of the venomous beast with the Soul pupil, his path was basically unimpeded. After walking for two hours, he had already travelled a very long distance, and after walking another fifth of the way, he had probably reached half of the Nine Serenities Demon Mountain.
Long Chen still had some lingering fear in his heart as he saw with his own eyes hundreds of millions of thumb-sized ants charge past, turning a small group of pract.i.tioners into bones in an instant.
This was the rule of compet.i.tion.
Only by surviving through countless compet.i.tions would it be possible to reach the peak of martial artists. As long as 50,000 people could survive, then there wouldn't be much of a problem. As long as the real powerhouses appeared among the 50,000 people.
After reaching the position in front of Long Chen, the number of venomous beast had decreased, and his pace had slowed down a bit. According to his estimations, the more he went online, the more terrifying the danger would be, and if the number of venomous beast in this place decreased, then there would definitely be other threats.
Right at this moment, a youngster suddenly rushed into the range of one mile from his Spirit Devouring Demon Pupil. The youngster stumbled as he escaped, his expression miserable, and very quickly, he met Long Chen head on. This youngster's age is not old, his cultivation is far away, just like the current Long Chen.
From this youth's demeanor and actions, Long Chen could see that he had fallen into an extreme state of fear, and it was definitely because of an irresistible and terrifying danger ahead.
”Run!” Upon seeing Long Chen, he immediately shouted, with a mournful voice.
”What's going on?” Long Chen stopped in his tracks.
At this moment, it seemed as if he was just mumbling to himself, as he said in front of Long Chen: ”Too terrifying, I don't know what it is, it's really too terrifying. As long as his spores enter your body, it will immediately absorb all the nutrients in your body, and it will grow out on your body! A lot of people died like that. How many people are trapped in this place? They can't even go up. ”
The first crisis was the enchanting zither music in the mist, and the second crisis was the forest filled with venomous beast. From this youth's words, one could tell that the third crisis was ahead, and many people were trapped in this place.
”What is it?” Long Chen asked.
