Chapter 298: The Scenic Landscape Underneath the Lightning
In the sky, the calamitous clouds flashed by.
Lu Heng strutted around in the open without ever concealing his figure.
This was his agreement with Jiu Mie, that in case of any difficult and hard to manage situation, he would flaunt his presence in public and transmit the information to the outside world.
In this way, the other person who was also within the Fire Pass Country area would hurry to come and offer assistance.
However, the speed of flying with calamitous clouds was indeed faster than ordinary fleeing light.
Without spending much time, Lu Heng had already led Xiao Ai and Shen Wuyou across thousands of miles, arriving at the swamp shrouded in a faintly bloody fog.
"Hiss… What a terrifying sensation…"
When Lu Heng pressed down onto the clouds and landed at the edge of the swamp, although he had not yet touched the bloody mist, the little boy\'s face had already changed slightly, feeling the terrifying aura of the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder.
Couldn\'t help murmuring.
Even though the punishment of calamity had dissipated a lot by now, it was still something that the little boy could not resist.
Moreover, it seems that the remaining punishment of calamity here will last for a long time. If there is no external force intervening, it may even last for several decades.
Seeing this situation, Lu Heng directly waved his sleeves and a gust of breeze lifted in the swamp.
The blood-red mist, which many cultivators had tried but failed to handle, when they came to watch, was now gently blown away by Lu Heng\'s sleeve-induced breeze.
The blood mist slowly dissipating above the swamp quickly condensed and rolled towards a direction under the blowing of the wind.
Finally, as the blood mist became denser and the area it covered became smaller and smaller, it transformed into a faint red light and flew silently behind Xiao Ai, where it fell into the Heavenly Thunder Sword on her back.
After taking in the disseminated residual breath of the divine punishment, the swamp shrouded by the blood mist returned to its original appearance and appeared in the sunlight.
The slightly turbid and foul-smelling water, the pitch-black and dirty water grass, and the skeletal remains that occasionally appeared in the water, all testified to the fact that this swamp had swallowed up the lives of many wild creatures.
However, Lu Heng and his companions, walking on water and riding the wind, naturally didn\'t fall into the swamp and get swallowed up by the mud.
Lu Heng walked directly towards the depths of the swamp. The boggy mud, which would trap ordinary creatures and prevent them from crawling out with just one step, didn\'t even leave a footprint under Lu Heng\'s feet.
He and Xiao Ai walked over the swamp as if they were weightless as a goose feather, and didn\'t leave the slightest trace.
Even the young boy Shen Wuyou, who had a low level of cultivation, could barely walk on the silt and prevent himself from sinking.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the center of the swamp, where Lu Heng\'s sword qi had fallen previously.
The swamp here remained unchanged in appearance, as Lu Heng\'s sword strike didn\'t alter the terrain.
However, beneath the silt, there was a strange aura seeping out, causing Lu Heng\'s eyebrows to crease slightly.
"Step back."
He spoke to Shen Wuyou and Xiao Ai in this way, while at the same time, he activated his Earth Control technique with a single thought.
The area in the middle of the swamp, where the water and sludge had been calm, began to violently shake. Controlled by the Earth Control technique, the sludge continuously turned over and exposed the bodies of many wild beasts that had been swallowed up by the sludge.
As more and more sludge churned up from underground and spread outwards, a large and pitch-black pit gradually formed in the center of the swamp.
Inside the pit, a highly eerie atmosphere permeated in all directions.
That aura was neither demonic nor the pure essence of righteousness, nor was it Death Qi.
However, as the aura spread outwards, all three individuals who felt this strange aura felt uncomfortable intuitively.
They felt extremely uneasy.
Lu Heng\'s expression was slightly solemn.
The underground of this swamp is indeed quite peculiar…
And it was just hit by his sword strike… truly…
Lu Heng didn\'t even know how to evaluate his own luck.
As the mud from the center of the swamp kept flying outwards, the pitch-black hole leading underground became deeper and deeper. The strange scent emanating from it also became stronger and stronger.
While Lu Heng, standing next to the pit, was able to remain calm, the young boy Shen Wuyou had long since turned pale. Even when retreating hundreds of feet away, he still couldn\'t bear it.
Similarly, Xiao Ai\'s face was also pale and she couldn\'t bear it. However, she always stood behind Lu Heng without ever retreating far away, enduring the impact of the increasingly strong strange scent head-on.
At some point, the mud that had been constantly surging outward finally came to a stop.
Inside that extremely dark hole, the strange scent emanating from it reached its peak.
The young boy Shen Wuyou had long since turned pale and retreated thousands of feet away, only able to watch from afar.
Lu Heng, on the other hand, looked down at the black hole under his feet and was slightly surprised.
Within this pitch-black hole, it seemed that divine consciousness and sight could be blocked. Even with Lu Heng\'s cultivation, he was unable to see the scene at the bottom of the pit.
Not to mention the bottom of the pit, Lu Heng couldn\'t even see three meters deep underground.
Such a strange situation caused Lu Heng to furrow his brows slightly.
He raised his right hand, in which a blazing white heavenly thunder flickered.
"Ahem, cough cough…"
In front of the pitch-black hole, Lu Heng coughed and said, "Is anyone inside? If there is no one, then I am going to throw heavenly thunder in there."
This childish behavior greatly surprised Xiao Ai, who looked at him with a strange expression.
However, there was naturally no reply to Lu Heng from inside the pitch-black hole.
After considering for a while, Lu Heng ultimately raised his hand and aimed the flickering heavenly thunder in his palm at the hole below.
He said, "I did give a heads-up beforehand, so don\'t blame me if you get hit."
After speaking, Lu Heng directly threw the heavenly thunder in his hand into the pitch-black hole at his feet.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, at the moment when the heavenly thunder appeared, the entire marsh seemed to tremble violently.
In Lu Heng\'s gentle and peaceful hand, the heavenly thunder was as mild as an ordinary lightning, but the moment it left his control, it instantly showed a terrifying aura that could annihilate all living beings.
The aura of the raging thunder penalty raged in the air.
The surging and overwhelming light of the heavenly thunder instantly illuminated the dark hole, making it as white as day.
The cold and gloomy gusts of wind howled and swept across the entire marsh, stirring up countless water plants and sludge.
In an instant, the heavenly thunder shone upon the world.
At the moment when the bright white lightning illuminated the world, everything in the pitch-black hole was revealed in full view.
With the lightning\'s momentary flash, Lu Heng was able to see even more clearly the depths of the pitch-black hole.
The outer level was rusted green, with a simple appearance of three legs and two ears. However, its powerful aura was impossible to ignore, as if it weighed down on the mountains and rivers.
The object in this pitch-black hole was actually a large cauldron?!
And what\'s even more eerie is not the large cauldron itself, but what\'s inside the cauldron.
With the help of the pale lightning, Lu Heng could see that the cauldron wasn\'t empty, but instead held a strange, green liquid filling about half of the cauldron.
And within that eerie and ghastly green liquid, there were faintly visible the bones of a woman floating and sinking…
