Chapter 78 The Secret of the Swamp 2

Chapter 78 The Secret of the Swamp 2

Just as Xu Zhenfeng was thinking rapidly in his mind, he suddenly felt a faint sense of vibration in the thick fog behind him.

He turned his head and saw that the thick fog that was originally floating slowly suddenly began to surge forward.

Xu Zhenfeng immediately activated the invisibility bracelet on his arm, and his entire figure instantly disappeared in the thick fog.

Less than three breaths after his figure disappeared, a Xiyi team led by a Xiyi general came up the path.

Xu Zhenfeng was very surprised when he saw this. Why was it General Xiyi who was patrolling the periphery of the swamp, but General Xiyi was patrolling inside?

The Xiyi army led by the Xiyi general had as many as seven or eight hundred people.

Fortunately, they moved very quickly and soon disappeared in the thick fog ahead of the path.

Xu Zhenfeng followed the team quietly and walked forward for half a cup of tea.

The scene in front of me suddenly became clear.

In the middle of an open space of about fifty feet in radius, there was a figure named Xiyi, with his eyes closed and an unusually tall figure, floating in the middle of the open space.

The thick gray fog surrounded the open space, as if it was isolated from the outside by some invisible barrier.

The invisibility time of Xu Zhenfeng's bracelet was about to end, so he could only hide in the thick fog and look at Xiyi in the middle of the open space.

Apart from its extremely tall body, there was not a trace of the Great Xiyi's aura on its body. It was just like an ordinary Little Xiyi.

It just floated above the center of the open space. There was a black crystal under its feet, and black gas was constantly emanating from the crystal.

As soon as the black gas was emitted, it floated towards Xiyi's body and was absorbed by it.

The Xiyi general, who had led the Xiyi team into the open space earlier, walked directly to the feet of the Xiyi and looked up at it.

The Xiyi hanging in the air suddenly opened its eyes, and Xu Zhenfeng was shocked to find that this seemingly ordinary Xiyi had a pair of eyes that were so red that they had a hint of purple.

As its eyes opened, its mouth opened too.

At this time, except for the general Xiyi, all the Xiyi people it saw turned into gray smoke and were sucked into its mouth.

Then, it lowered its head slightly and looked down at General Xiyi under its feet. Another stream of black and gray mist gushed out of its mouth and was sucked into the stomach of General Xiyi under its feet.

After General Xiyi inhaled the black and gray mist it sprayed out, he exhaled some gray mist that seemed to have impurities from his mouth.

It was as if it had filtered out the black and gray mist that Xuankong Xiyi had given him.

Then, within a few breaths, the aura of this Xiyi general began to rise.

Just like that, in Xu Zhenfeng's eyes, it broke through like a hot knife through butter and was promoted to a Xiyi general.

Then, the newly promoted Xiyi commander turned around and walked back, stepping onto the path again, obviously heading back to the outskirts of the swamp.

After General Xiyi left, the suspended Xiyi returned to his previous state, with his eyes and mouth tightly closed.

Only the black crystal under its feet was still emitting black gas, which was absorbed by it.

Xu Zhenfeng looked at the black crystal stone, which was about the size of a fist, from afar.

He felt his inner elixir in his lower abdomen begin to beat uncontrollably.

Yes, it was this black crystal. This was the reason why he always felt that there was great temptation in the swamp.

As he got closer to the crystal, his inner elixir couldn't help but beat like his heart.

If the inner elixir could speak, Xu Zhenfeng would have thought that it must be shouting desperately, shouting that it must get this black crystal.

At this time, the validity period of the invisibility bracelet has expired.

Xu Zhenfeng had to take several steps back and completely hide his body in the thick fog.

At this moment, he didn't know who to turn to for answers to the questions in his mind. Even the King of Xiyi had to fight among countless Xiyi leaders before he was born.

What the hell is this Xiyi?

It can actually draw the power of ordinary Xiyi and quickly promote other Xiyi.

He had never heard his masters talk about this kind of weird stuff.

This Xiyi is definitely not the King Xiyi, but its ability to quickly enhance the strength of other Xiyi is even more terrifying than the King Xiyi.

This matter must be told to other demon tribes immediately, otherwise there might really be a major turmoil in Xiyi Realm.

Xu Zhenfeng knew that what he should do most now was to leave quickly, go back outside, and return to the demon team.

But his feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, and he could not move in any direction except forward.

What exactly is that black crystal, and why do I desire it so much?

Xu Zhenfeng was torn between his conscience and his desires, and a voice kept calling out to him to hurry up and leave this strange place.

Another voice was trying to tempt him, saying, "Take away the black crystal. It is yours and it can bring you great benefits."

Xuankong Xiyi remained motionless, with his eyes closed, looking as if he had no consciousness at all.

Xu Zhenfeng took a light step forward.

Then comes the second step...

When one of his legs stepped out of the thick fog and onto the open ground.

The Xiyi hanging in the air seemed to sense something and shook slightly.

Xu Zhenfeng immediately retracted his front foot, but Xiyi did not open his eyes.

Everything was calm again.

Xu Zhenfeng went around behind Xuankong Xiyi in the thick fog and tentatively put one of his front feet on the open ground.

The Xiyi shook again. This time, Xu Zhenfeng did not retract his front legs. His eyes were fixed on Xiyi's body.

As soon as he noticed that it was about to turn around, he would leave immediately.

Seeing Xiyi tremble for a moment and then stop moving, Xu Zhenfeng stepped his other front foot into the open space.

This time, Xuankong Xiyi's body began to turn slowly.

Xu Zhenfeng immediately retreated into the thick fog.

How to do?

Leave? Or try again?

Even if he knew it in his heart, no matter how hard he tried, the result would be the same.

As long as he put his entire body into the open space, Xuankong Xiyi would definitely find him.

It will take another hour for the invisibility bracelet to be activated again. Can he wait here for another hour before trying again?

Various thoughts were in fierce conflict in Xu Zhenfeng's mind.

Finally, he turned around and walked towards the path without hesitation.

Of course he wanted the black crystal, but saving his life was the most important thing.

The most important thing for him right now is to find the fifth master, and the priorities must not be confused.

On the way back, he did not meet any Xiyi again.

When he reached the intersection of the path, he observed for a while in the thick fog, and taking advantage of the interval between the two patrol teams of Xiyi, he flew out of the swamp.

After he ran more than ten miles away, he found a place to hide and looked at this strange place again.

He discovered that the Xiyi troops, which originally numbered tens of thousands, had become much smaller, and the patrolling Xiyi generals now led small teams of only a few hundred Xiyi.

The previous situation where a Xiyi general could lead thousands of Xiyi troops is no longer seen.
