Chapter 2125 Miasma Frog
Chapter 2125 Miasma Frog
As the whole village was shaken slightly, Liu Jun had quietly set up the formation. He used a full 10 million spirit stones to set up the formation, which was so generous that it was shocking.
This formation can not only protect Sui Yang's family from external harm, but also conceal their whereabouts to a certain extent, ensuring that they are safe during the time Sui Yang is away.
Standing at the edge of the formation, Sui Yang looked back and took a deep look at his home. There were his elderly parents and his young child Xuan Xuan, who were the most important people in his life. He then took a deep breath, walked to the child, and gently hugged the child. The little guy seemed to feel his father's reluctance, and his little hands tightly hugged Sui Yang's neck.
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving. You must take good care of Xuanxuan and wait for me to come back." Sui Yang's voice was choked with sobs, but he still tried hard not to let the tears fall. He bowed deeply, then turned around and strode away, leaving behind only a determined back.
After Sui Yang came out of the yard, Liu Jun and his companions set out on their journey to the Blackwater Swamp again.
The Blackwater Swamp was not very far from their village. The group walked at a fast pace and after about two hours, they could vaguely see the gloomy periphery of the Blackwater Swamp. As the distance got closer, a heavy and oppressive atmosphere gradually enveloped their hearts.
The Blackwater Swamp is no different from other swamps, and the air is also filled with suffocating miasma. However, the miasma here is different, showing a strange blue color, which flashes strangely under the sunlight, making people feel that it is somewhat beautiful. However, this beautiful appearance hides deadly dangers.
"My lords, please be careful." Sui Yang suddenly stopped and took out a cloth bag from his waist, which contained a handful of peanut-shaped fruits. "This blue miasma is poisonous. You'd better eat this fruit first. It can temporarily resist the erosion of the miasma."
Xu Baoer had sharp eyes. With just a quick glance, she recognized the origin of the fruit: "Miasma-avoiding fruit? I didn't expect you to have such a rare fruit here."
As the name suggests, the miasma-avoiding fruit is naturally used to resist miasma. Upon hearing this, Amo, who had the worst resistance, immediately took the fruit from Sui Yang and swallowed it without hesitation.
The fruit tasted a bit bitter, but soon after eating it, she felt her breathing became much smoother, and the dizzying blue miasma seemed to have lost its power.
Liu Jun didn't react at all. His body wouldn't be harmed by any poison, but this miasma definitely couldn't invade his body.
With the protection of the miasma-proof fruit, the group continued to go deeper into the swamp. The mud under their feet made it difficult for them to walk, and the silence around them made them feel terrified.
Fortunately, with Sui Yang, who was familiar with the route, leading the way, the group did not encounter any accidents.
"Something's wrong!" Sui Yang suddenly made a stop gesture, his eyes were sharp, as if they could penetrate every leaf in the swamp forest.
Since entering this swamp, Sui Yang, who was originally weak and listless and looked sick, seemed like a different person, just like a fish that was about to die of thirst and jumped into the river, and became unusually energetic.
The group of people stopped in their tracks, as if they were held in place by an invisible force, without making any sound. They looked around vigilantly, ready to respond to any possible danger.
"What's wrong?" Liu Jun asked in a low voice, his brows slightly furrowed, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Sui Yang glanced around and said in a deep voice, "There was a group of miasma frogs here before, but they are gone now."
Liu Jun frowned even more tightly, with a hint of confusion on his face. This miasma frog is a living creature with long legs, isn't it normal for it to be in different places? He was about to ask this question, but Xu Baoer next to him got there first.
"Brother, this season is the egg-laying season for miasma frogs. They usually don't leave the breeding ground." Although Xu Baoer's voice was also low, there was an unquestionable firmness in her tone. "Moreover, miasma frogs will become extremely ferocious during the egg-laying season and will desperately attack other creatures that enter their territory."
After hearing Xu Baoer's explanation, Liu Jun couldn't help but nodded. Xu Baoer was a doctor and knew much more about these things than he did.
Everyone's expressions became more solemn. There must be something wrong with this abnormal situation. This group of miasma frogs left their habitat, and it was very likely that something happened here.
Sui Yang took out a delicate bamboo tube from his waist, shook it gently a few times, and then poured out a thing similar to a cricket. As soon as the little guy came out of the bamboo tube, he immediately became active and jumped forward.
"Follow it." Sui Yang briefly signaled everyone, and then took the lead, followed by Liu Jun, Amo and Xu Baoer. They walked through the dense forest carefully, trying not to make any noise to avoid disturbing the guys who might be hiding in the dark.
Following the guidance of the little cricket, they came to a hidden swamp. It was surrounded by lush vegetation, forming a natural barrier. In this swamp, they finally found the missing miasma frogs - they were densely gathered together to guard their eggs.
"Have these miasma frogs moved?" Liu Jun asked in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the area in front of him where the miasma frogs were originally scattered but now densely packed like a mountain. The miasma frogs were stacked up in layers, close to each other, as if they were carrying out an unprecedented large-scale migration, or performing some ancient and mysterious ritual.
"Yes, they moved, but it seems that they discovered something extremely dangerous, so they concentrated the eggs for protection." Xu Baoer stroked her chin with one hand, with an analytical look in her eyes. She carefully observed the abnormal behavior of the miasma frog in the distance, trying to interpret more information from it.
Sui Yang, who was standing by, nodded slightly upon hearing this, his eyes also showing his approval of Xu Baoer's judgment. Although he didn't say anything, his body language was enough to explain everything.
"Danger? What kind of danger could make these miasma frogs so nervous?" Liu Jun frowned, his tone filled with confusion and worry. He looked around, trying to use his senses to detect any abnormality, but the thick miasma in the swamp was like an invisible barrier, greatly weakening his perception.
At this moment, a young figure appeared silently beside Liu Jun - it was the ghost doll. It was holding the ferocious ancient demon baby in one hand, and its expression was more solemn than ever before.
"Liu Jun, be careful, there are the auras of other ancient demons from outside the domain around." The ghost doll's voice was low and rapid.
Hearing this, Liu Jun's heart suddenly tightened, and an ominous premonition spread along his spine like ice. He realized that although he had been vigilant, his vigilance had been greatly reduced due to the interference of the miasma unique to this swamp.
At this moment, not only did he not notice anything unusual, but he was overwhelmed by an inexplicable uneasiness, which made him feel uncomfortable.
"The ancient demon from outside the domain has appeared again?" Liu Jun muttered to himself.
He came here to find the lair of the ancient demon from outside the domain and the queen in that lair.
It’s just that these ancient demons from outside the domain appeared too early, which made him a little uneasy.
As the night deepened, the miasma in the swamp seemed to grow thicker, and a depressing and dreary atmosphere enveloped the area.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh", a series of sharp sounds of breaking through the air like a sharp whistle suddenly sounded in the silent air, as if countless sharp arrows were shooting towards everyone at an extremely fast speed.
In an instant, cold light appeared, and the cold light was like icy lightning, blowing towards him with a deadly breath.
With the reminder from the ghost doll, Liu Jun was prepared and reacted extremely quickly. A sharp light flashed in his eyes for a moment, and he attacked instantly like an agile cheetah.
His hands danced quickly in front of him like nimble butterflies, and he accurately blocked the cold light in a few moves. Every time he blocked, there was a crisp sound like metal colliding, which showed how fierce the cold light was.
At this moment, Xu Baoer's eyes revealed determination. She rushed to Amo and Sui Yang and opened her arms, like a solid wall.
Amo and Sui Yang both showed nervous and panicked expressions on their faces. It must be said that these two could not be said to be weak in combat power. To be exact, they had no combat power at all and had no ability to protect themselves. In this dangerous moment, they could only rely on Xu Baoer to stand in front of them to protect them from the wind and rain.
After blocking this sudden attack, the air around him seemed to begin to distort, and hundreds of figures slowly emerged like ghosts.
These figures were of different shapes and gave off a creepy aura. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be ancient demons from outside the domain.
Liu Jun frowned slightly. He had killed many ancient demons from outside the domain before, but the ancient demons from outside the domain in front of him were different from the ones he had seen before.
Although they also had different shapes and were covered with hard black scales, the scales shone with a strange luster under the moonlight, as if they were a layer of natural armor. However, the air surrounding these ancient demons was not the black air he was familiar with, but a strange green air. The green air was like misty smoke, lingering around their bodies, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura.
Liu Jun became secretly alert in his heart. He knew that the ancient demon he was facing this time might be more difficult to deal with than the ones he had encountered before.
Xu Baoer did not dare to relax at all. She stared at the ancient demons closely, clenched her fists slightly, and was ready to protect Amo and Sui Yang behind her at any time.
Ah Mo and Sui Yang hid behind Xu Baoer, not daring to breathe, nervously watching everything in front of them, their hearts filled with fear and anxiety. A fierce battle seemed to be about to break out...
"Quack, quack", a series of rapid and loud frog croaking broke the originally silent night. What everyone present did not expect was that the first to launch the attack was not the ancient demon from outside the domain, but the miasma frogs that were originally gathered nearby and seemed to be in a defensive formation.
The attack methods of these miasma frogs completely overturned Liu Jun's previous cognition. In his impression, creatures like miasma frogs should rely on secreting highly toxic substances to hunt or defend themselves, rather than taking such direct and violent means.
However, the scene before him completely overturned his imagination - the miasma frogs that pounced on him opened their bloody mouths, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth flashing with cold light, obviously intending to bite people in hand-to-hand combat.
"Oh my god, aren't they said that these guys mainly rely on poison attacks?" Liu Jun was shocked and took a few steps back involuntarily, his eyes full of astonishment and confusion.
"Yes, their teeth are indeed poisonous." Xu Baoer responded quickly, with an expression of disbelief on her face. Although she knew something about miasma frogs, she had never seen them attack so fiercely.
