Chapter 280: Facing a powerful enemy, we must work together

Xiao Yicai and ten others went ahead and headed into the depths of the Death Swamp, leaving the rest of the righteous people behind to exit the Death Swamp and stand guard outside.

Looking down, the water source under my feet is crystal clear and I can see the bottom. The water plants in the water are slowly floating with the flow. At a glance, it seems endless.

The clear water and blue sky have a unique flavor.

Murong Ji sat on the Tianwen Sword and counted his gains one by one, which was not bad.

Suddenly, a goose yellow purse was taken out. Murong Ji was startled and then he remembered that it was Jin Ping'er's thing.

I counted the silver in it and found it was eighty-three taels, so I was a small rich man.

He took out another bag, which was a slightly larger one. He opened it with some confusion. There was still something light yellow inside, and he couldn't tell what it was.

"A magic weapon made of silk?"

He slowly pulled it out and was stunned for a moment. What was this? A bellyband?! There was also a cloth belt. Murong Ji knew what it was. It was a menstrual belt. He had seen Lu Xueqi use it before.

Murong Ji's mouth twitched, feeling inexplicably embarrassed. If he had known it was this thing, he would not have taken it.

I quickly put it back and was about to put it away, but suddenly I was stunned. Why should I put it away? Was I waiting to be caught by Lu Xueqi? !

He rolled it up into a ball and threw it behind him.

After a long while of not hearing the sound of someone falling into the water, he turned around and his face instantly darkened. It was Jin Ping'er.

Jin Ping'er blushed slightly, put away her underwear, and then said, "What a coincidence."

"Yeah, what a coincidence, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Jin Ping Er smiled charmingly and said, "You wouldn't. If you wanted to kill me, you would have killed me in front of Xiao Huan."

Murong Ji was too lazy to pay attention and flew away on his sword, heading towards the depths of the Death Swamp.

Jin Ping'er quickly caught up, following Murong Ji not too far away.

The two did not speak, and were immersed in the poisonous fog, unable to tell the direction. However, Murong Ji moved forward with a very purposeful mind.

"You have been here before."

Murong Ji glanced at Jin Ping'er, "How did you know?"

"Two years ago, when you were supervising Changsheng Hall, someone from my Hehuan Sect happened to see you."

Murong Ji was startled. He had never noticed this before. "I heard that you are called Master San Miao? Is it because of your master, Madam San Miao?"

"No, it's because of who I am."

Murong Ji retracted his gaze and said slowly: "One of his swords is wonderful. It absorbs Yin and returns to the abyss, and is compatible with one's own Qi and meridians."

"The second one is wonderful." Murong Ji glanced at Jin Ping'er, and then continued: "The goose yellow feather dress sets off her delicate figure, and when she looks back, all things are wonderful. You have mastered the art of charming the heart."

"The third one is a woman with a vicious heart. When it comes to selling out your teammates, you show no mercy at all."

"Hmph~ I don't want to hear you say that. Actually, I have more than just these three skills. If you don't believe me, try it..."

Murong Ji waved his hand, and the invisible energy instantly grabbed her neck again, "Speak properly, your charm has no effect on me."

All these years, his practice of the Sutra of Purity and Tranquility was not in vain.

After Murong Ji let go, Jin Ping'er collapsed to the ground, coughing rapidly a few times. She looked at Murong Ji's back, feeling somewhat unwilling, and chased after him again.

Murong Ji was too lazy to pay attention to her. Soon, he reached the depths of the Death Swamp, found a suitable location, and set up a formation.

He took out a palm-sized emerald green jade tripod and placed it in the center of the formation.

Then he took out another bead, placed it on top of the jade tripod, stood aside, and waited quietly.

Jin Ping'er looked at it with some curiosity. She didn't understand the ins and outs of it, but she could guess what Murong Ji was going to do.

Not long after, rustling sounds could be heard.

Looking around, there were endless poisonous insects crawling towards here.

Jin Ping'er instantly got goose bumps all over her body and her scalp felt numb. She couldn't bear it any more and flew into the air with her magic weapon.

Murong Ji also flew up on his sword and picked and chose among the insect swarm, choosing some that could be used as medicine for making pills.

Suddenly, Jin Ping'er discovered something strange. The venom from the poisonous insects that crawled into the green cauldron was slowly melted out and sank into the white jade beads above.

Not long after, the jade bead turned into an extremely dark poisonous bead, and his expression changed slightly. This method was much more violent than that of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect.

Slowly, the miasma in the air gathered and was absorbed by the bead.

As time went on, the jade box containing the poisonous insects beside Murong Ji grew to more than a person's height.

At this moment, all parties had solemn expressions on their faces, and their scalps tingled as they watched the tide of poisonous insects surging below.

Zhang Xiaofan frowned, thought for a moment, and then headed towards the direction where the poisonous insects were surging.

Qin Wuyan on the other side suddenly laughed, "But has a treasure suitable for our Wan Du Men come into the world?!" He jumped up and chased after him.

Xiao Yicai, Faxiang, and Li Xun frowned as they looked at the insect swarm below. "Brother Faxiang, do you think the miasma is weaker than before?"

The Dharma Image looked up and said, "Amitabha, it is indeed so. I am afraid it is related to this strange image."

"This poisonous miasma is the key to distinguishing the inside and outside of the Death Swamp. Is there some magical treasure that has appeared?"

"Junior Sister Lu! What are you doing?!"

Several people watched Lu Xueqi fly away on her sword. She left the team without saying goodbye and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Yicai suddenly realized that the magic weapons and elixirs contributed by Dazhu Peak over the years were countless. He often interacted with Murong Ji and knew his thoughts. He had even seen him use poisonous insects to refine elixirs.

Coupled with Lu Xueqi's strange behavior, he had some guesses in his mind, [No wonder you have to act alone, you should have told me, I can arrange help for you. ]

"Haha, I'm afraid Junior Brother Li Xun guessed wrong."

"Oh? Senior Brother Xiao, do you have a different opinion?"

"It's not an opinion, but you can't just judge someone by one blow. It's OK for a kind-hearted person to use poison to save others, but there are also many evil-minded people who use magic weapons to commit evil."

Li Xun's face darkened, reminding him of something. "Senior Brother Xiao, this must be a hint!"

"Don't dare!"

"That is……"

"You two, we are facing a powerful enemy. We should work together."

Xiao Yicai stared at the insect swarm below and frowned slightly. He didn't know what Murong Ji had gained. As far as he knew, Murong Ji had been to the Death Swamp once before, so he was probably prepared.

Or, to be bold, he already knew what the treasure was.

"Junior Sister Wenmin, thank you for your hard work in chasing after Junior Sister Lu."

Wen Min was startled for a moment, then reacted, "Okay, everyone go ahead, no need to wait for me."

Li Xun looked gloomy as he watched Wen Min disappear. "Senior Brother Xiao did this so openly and honestly. I really admire you."

"If it weren't for Junior Brother Murong, half of the people in your Fenxiang Valley would have died again!"

"You two!" The Dharma Image was somewhat helpless, "Business matters are more important."

The few of them said no more and headed towards the depths of the miasma.

Murong looked at the insect swarm very carefully. He killed some large poisonous creatures directly and took the medicine. The remaining corpses were eaten by the insect swarm in a few breaths.

He raised his head and glanced at the poisonous miasma. A small vortex had formed with the jade bead as the center, and countless poisonous miasma were swept into the bead.

The vortex was still getting bigger, and the filtered air was discharged from the bottom of the formation.

"You are refining a magic weapon?!"

Jin Ping'er exclaimed, no wonder Murong Ji had so many magic weapons on him.

Murong Ji glanced at her and said slowly, "We will have to fight a few rounds in a while. If you don't want to get into trouble, leave quickly."

"Hehe, you don't want to be tricked by me, do you?"

Murong Ji didn't say anything.

Suddenly, Murong Ji's pupils shrank. He waved his hand, put the jade boxes into the dragon ring, and looked around vigilantly.

In an instant, Murong Ji felt a chill on his spine. He quickly left his place and looked carefully. A dagger appeared there at some point.

At this moment, Qin Wuyan's voice came: "I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Murong even knows the poison skills of my Ten Thousand Poison Sect."

The voice was erratic, coming from all directions, making it difficult to tell where he was.

"Little tricks."

Murong Ji's voice was not loud, but he was searching Qin Wuyan's soul through sound transmission. When he found Qin Wuyan's location, he shot several sword energies at him.

There was a "puff" sound, and then there was no more movement.

Amidst the poisonous miasma, a figure appeared again, and judging from his appearance, it was Zhang Xiaofan.

Jin Ping'er danced in the air and smiled tenderly, "It seems we are really destined to meet. We meet again."

Murong Ji ignored him and turned to look at the formation, estimating the time. It would take a while.

Suddenly, there was a cold and angry shout.

"evildoer!"

In the poisonous miasma, a sword stabbed towards Zhang Xiaofan's back.

Before he finished his words, a sharp blue sword light flashed across, forcing Zhang Xiaofan to dodge hastily. The moment the two men fought, endless poisonous miasma was dispersed by the energy of Qi.

Along with the poisonous miasma tornado that was formed.

Murong Ji turned his head and saw someone standing behind him, Lu Xueqi.

Lu Xueqi glanced at him with a cold expression, and then became wary of the third young master of the Demon Cult.

Murong Ji laughed, "Xueqi, you are here." Then he held her hand, took off the phoenix ring and replaced it with the dragon ring.

Lu Xueqi frowned slightly, and then she saw the full thing in the ring, and she couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the woman in goose yellow clothes standing beside him, looking at Murong Ji with tenderness and affection in her eyes, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

"Xueqi, we..." Murong Ji hadn't finished his words when his heart was shocked and a bad feeling came over him.

He stretched out his hand and took the poison bead and the Divine Wood King Cauldron.

The next moment, he hugged Lu Xueqi and flew towards the sky at an extremely fast speed on his sword. With his free hand, he suddenly pulled back, and a black light blocked his body.

"bump"

There was a silent collision sound. Lu Xueqi and the others looked down and saw a bloody mouth biting the black light shield tightly.

Murong Ji's face turned pale. How could he forget about this beast, the Black Water Snake!
