Chapter 84 - The Dead Swamp

Chi Xiao arrived two days later, and thus the team to explore the Gate of Heaven was complete

The Dead Sas comprised of thousands of swamps of all different sizes

These had existed for centuries Whoever stepped into these would most likely be unable to escape and eventually drown

It was hard to travel in the swae and horses were left at the entrance, and the tea into the Dead Swamp

Once they stepped into it, Shi Yan was on alert so as to avoid any dangers

There were endless green swa a green colored air

In some places, the air was so poisonous that people would rot to death as soon as they inhaled it

Apart from the swamps and poisonous air, there were also demon beats

The demon beasts had adapted to the environment They would usually hide in the swamps and jump out to attack whenever people passed by

Chi Xiao and Xia Xin Yan were taking the lead and avoiding all the small sized swamps

Chi Xiao was a Sky Real in the air

Though he didn’t feel fear, the others did Even Xia Xin Yan could only reach Sky Realm when she operated her Incarnation Martial Spirit Only then could she fly

However, every time Xia Xin Yan used her Incarnation Martial Spirit, her vitality would be daed

Therefore, Xia Xin Yan rarely used it unless it was an e Chi Xiao’s lead

Shi Yan’s reale about this world

Thus, after they entered the Dead Swaers in the swamp as well as Chi Xiao and other people’s reactions

“There is a three- swamp in front of us which we can’t avoid” Chi Xiao paused, standing on a wet area and frowned, “This swamp should be the safest one around this area Be careful, we need to take the risk this tiid face, Shi Yan observed the swamp in front of hi and filled with green mud At the center of which there were pieces of dry land, enough for two or three people to stand on

Some of those dry lands were dozens of meters ahile some were only two or three meters apart It would only be safe to pass this swa on the dry areas

However, Chi Xiao’s next statement crashed his plans

“Don’t even hope that the dry areas could hold people It will sink even faster once you step on some of them Many of those dry patches just float on the swaht Once you step on it, it will quickly sink”

Shi Yan turned serious in surprise, not saying anything

“Don’t worry, I will test every dry area so that you can walk on the solid ones” Chi Xiao saw through their worries and suys just need to follow me It will be fine But soht, but not three or four people So we still need to be careful”

Everybody nodded with a rigid face Even Zuo Shi, as quite relaxed before, got a little nervous and observed the dry lands before her cautiously

“Miss Xia, there er Could you help y?” Chi Xiao hesitated, and looked to Xia Xin Yan

Xia Xin Yan’s crystal eyes showed hesitation behind her veil After a thought, she said, “Mr Chi Xiao, if you can handle it by yourself, please do so I will be quite weak for a while after using y for the Nine-headed Sky Snake, but not these swa that, Zuo Shi and Wu Yun Lian secretly frowned

They assuard them as her friends Therefore, they were a little disappointed, though they didn’t show it

Chi Xiao didn’t h, as he nodded, “Well then, let me do it But you have to be more careful since Miss Xia isn’t able to help Don’t step anywhere randoh even for roup nodded together seriously

“Hht breath and flew over and landed on a dry patch

He placed one foot on it and it sank ihtly with sole his eyes He suddenly realized that this journey ined, thus he had to bethe earth sink, he remarked, “You see, this piece can't even hold one person If you ju, he flew up again and landed on another piece of dry land That piece was quite solid, not sinking at all

“This is ok But still be careful It erous if more people land on it” Chi Xiao stamped as he reain
