Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 317 - 224: Cultivation World 14_3

The water monster’s corpse was collected, and three guards from the City Lord Mansion dove into the lake to see if there was anything valuable in the water monster’s lair.

After retrieving the water monster’s treasure, the group continued onward.

Soon, they arrived at the mysterious miasma forest.

The forest was shrouded in thick miasma, like a heavy curtain that obscured their vision, making everything around them appear blurry and indistinct.

Their footsteps made a rustling sound on the dry leaves and branches, each step feeling like they were treading on unknown fears.

The air was filled with a pungent odor, making it difficult to breathe, as if an invisible hand was gripping their throats.

Cautiously, they advanced, gripping their Magic Treasures tightly, alert to any movement around them.

Suddenly, a deep roar broke the quiet of the forest.

The sound seemed to come from Hell, chilling them to the bone.

Their expressions instantly turned serious; they knew danger was approaching.

Soon, pairs of glowing green eyes appeared in the dim forest, like ghostly flames, nearing from all directions.

Demon Blood Wolves, dangerous predators that fed on cultivators’ bones, had surrounded them.

The Demon Blood Wolves bared their sharp teeth, letting out eerie howls, ready to attack at any moment.

Everyone immediately became vigilant, casting spells and preparing to face the enemy.

Some held out Flying Swords, while others muttered incantations, summoning fire and lightning.

The Demon Blood Wolves were extraordinarily fierce, lunging at them with claws and teeth gleaming ominously. Despite their efforts, the sheer number of wolves began to overwhelm them.

During the fierce battle, a late-stage Nascent Soul Purple-scaled Cold Python emerged from the miasma.

Its scales glistened with a cold luster in the dim light, bloodthirsty glint flashing in its vertical pupils.

The python’s massive body moved like a wall, crushing trees in its path.

It opened its huge mouth and lunged at a cultivator, who was hit by the python’s tail, sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

Seeing this, others cast spells; some hurled Fireballs, others shot Ice Arrows to try and halt the python’s attack, but its tough scales deflected most assaults.

In the heat of the battle, a cultivator’s attention was drawn to a stele partially buried in the ground.

The stele was covered in cracks, yet still emitted a faint golden glow.

Curious, he approached to take a closer look and saw ancient runes carved on it, each rune seemingly flowing with a disquieting power.

Just then, the stele began to tremble violently, with threads of black gas seeping from its cracks.

A chill ran from his feet to his head, as if something terrifying was awakening.

Sensing danger, they all halted their fight and watched the stele warily.

However, it was too late; the black gas from the stele rapidly spread and enveloped them, then they were pulled into another space.

This space was filled with demonic qi and was exceedingly dark.

Si Lingle released her Divine Sense, but the others were nowhere to be found; they had been separated.

With a "crack", Si Lingle stepped on and shattered a skeleton.

Only then did Si Lingle realize she was standing on a land of bones.

Her Divine Sense revealed that this bone-filled land stretched for two kilometers.

How many people must have died here to produce so many bones?

Si Lingle inspected further and found some tattered clothing, recognizing they were likely from people who died over a thousand years ago based on their style.

Some of the clothing was from the Qingxuan Sect, indicating members of that sect had perished here.

After a while, Si Lingle also discovered Heavenly Dao Sect disciples.

Their deaths varied; some fell to spells, some to swords, others to blades.

Si Lingle retrieved an empty Storage Bag, collecting all the bones.

While collecting bones, she found some damaged Storage Bags and broken weapons, which she placed into a separate Storage Bag.

She didn’t know who these people were, but if they were Heavenly Dao Sect predecessors, she could confirm their identities using the blood essence left at the sect.

As for those from other sects, if those sects wished, they could claim them later.

Si Lingle filled four Storage Bags with bones before they were all collected.

Luckily, before setting out on her journey, she had bought many Storage Bags and didn’t have to worry about running out.

After gathering the bones, Si Lingle discovered a stele.

The stele was inscribed with ancient script.

Si Lingle understood it, as she was familiar with ancient texts.

The stele revealed this was the Sealed Demon Land, where a million Heavenly Demons and a Heavenly Demon King were sealed.

Si Lingle immediately realized the issue; demonic qi leakage must mean the Sealing Array was compromised.
