Chapter 32: Second Floor and Shadow Scorpion

Miaokong stepped on the ground and his speed increased immediately.

Qiu Yuan and others were startled. The scenery in front of them quickly retreated and their vision was a little blurred. However, their bodies were wrapped by a strong and tough force. They felt no discomfort at all and breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiu Yuan was fine. Quinto and Russell looked at each other with a shocked expression.

He waved his hand to arrest all the people of the three tribes. They were completely unable to react. Shi Mu's magic power was far beyond their imagination.

The area of ​​the second level of the Blood Source Realm seemed to be very large. With the speed of Shi Mu and Miaokong, they flew for half an hour, but there was still no big change around them. There was no sign of reaching the end.

The terrain in the Blood Source Realm was always plains, with few ups and downs, and some moss vegetation grew on the ground.

However, apart from these red mosses, there were no other creatures, and it looked lifeless.

Shi Mu frowned slightly. The scene in front of him was not what he expected.

"The Blood Source Realm is vast and boundless, and it is above the Ten Thousand Spirits Realm. Our three tribes have not been able to fully explore it, but according to our exploration, the entire Blood Source Realm is divided into three layers. We are now in the first layer, which is very desolate." Qiu Yuan saw Shi Mu's doubts, walked over, and said softly.

"Three layers? How is it divided?" Shi Mu was stunned and asked.

"The first layer boundary will soon be reached in front, and Daoist Fellow Shi Mu will know it at a glance." Qiu Yuan opened his mouth to explain, but he didn't know how to use the words for a while. He looked at the surrounding area and smiled.

Shi Mu's eyebrows moved, but he didn't continue to ask, and continued to fly forward.

Rumble!

At this moment, the red mist around suddenly rolled up, making a rumbling sound. At first, it was only a little, but after a few breaths, it became deafening.

Not only the blood mist around, but also the blood clouds in the sky were turbulent, connected with the blood mist below, and pressed towards the group head-on.

The blood mist and blood cloud came only slowly at first, but in a blink of an eye, they formed waves of blood-colored waves, pressing over like a tidal wave.

Before the bloody giant wave arrived, a terrifying force had already come.

Shi Mu and Miao Kong's escape light also paused.

Especially Shi Mu, he brought all the people of the three tribes, which was much more laborious than Miao Kong.

"Oh no, we actually encountered a fog tide! Fellow Daoist Shi Mu, this is a common natural disaster in the first level of the Blood Source Realm, which is quite severe. The first level is so desolate because of this fog tide." Qiu Yuan's face moved and he spoke.

Shi Mu nodded and waved his hand to cast a spell.

The yellow light covering the people of the three tribes thickened, then rolled and condensed into a yellow round shield in the shape of a tortoise shell, covering the people of the three tribes.

Shi Mu had just finished doing this when the bloody fog tide came and submerged Shi Mu and Miao Kong.

Shi Mu's body shook, and huge forces were transmitted from the bloody fog tide. It really seemed as if he was in the raging waves of the sea and was hit by huge waves.

However, a yellow light flashed on his body, condensing into a layer of yellow crystal light, which offset all the huge forces in the flash.

The yellow shield covering the three tribes was also as stable as a mountain. Waves of blood mist hit it, and the yellow shield only vibrated slightly.

The golden light flashed under Miaokong, and it easily resisted the impact of the fog tide.

The group's speed slowed down slightly, and they continued to move forward quickly in the fog tide.

After flying forward for about a quarter of an hour, Shi Mu and his team suddenly stopped.

The fog tide continued to rage, but Shi Mu's eyes ignored the fog tide and looked forward.

In the area in front of him, the ground suddenly disappeared, replaced by a bottomless abyss of unknown depth. It was pitch black below, and the bottom could not be seen at all.

"Is this the boundary of the first layer you mentioned?" Shi Mu turned and looked at Qiu Yuan.

"Yes, the second layer is below." Qiu Yuan said.

Shi Mu nodded, and flew down with Miaokong first.

The fog seemed to be limited to the first layer. After flying into the second layer, the fog was no longer felt and everything returned to calm.

The area ahead seemed pitch black, but after flying down, it was discovered that there were some dim red spots in the air from time to time, like fireflies in the dark night. Although dim, it was enough to illuminate the area ahead.

The group flew down quickly, and soon the first layer behind them disappeared from their sight.

The whirring wind blew past his ears, and Shi Mu was slightly startled.

They had already flown down a long distance, but there was still no sign of reaching the bottom.

However, the further they went, the more red fluorescence in the air, and the brighter the light.

Just as he was considering whether to continue to speed up, his eyebrows suddenly raised, the yellow light on his body became thicker, and his figure immediately sped up.

A moment later, an endless black forest appeared in the field of vision, lush and green, with countless tall and unusual trees growing, each of which was several feet thick.

These trees are pitch black, emitting black mist, making the whole forest look dark and hazy. There are a few strange black monsters hiding in the forest, secretly looking at the people in the air through the gaps between the branches.

These monsters are pitch black, with liquid-like light flowing on their bodies, which looks quite strange.

"This is the second level of the Blood Source Realm. Basically, there are such dark forests everywhere. The monsters in the forest are shadow beasts unique to this place, and they are very powerful. Now it is still the periphery. There are many shadow beasts in the deep of the dark forest, and there are even powerful shadow beasts in the middle and late stages of the God Realm." Qiu Yuan explained.

Shi Mu had a blank expression on his face, and his eyes flashed as he glanced at the strange black monsters in the woods below.

These so-called shadow beasts were just some special monsters that controlled dark attribute power, nothing surprising.

His mind moved, and his consciousness expanded.

Shi Mu's face suddenly changed slightly. In the void of the second layer of the dark forest, an invisible space force appeared, which greatly restricted his consciousness.

With his current consciousness, he could only spread about a thousand miles and could no longer move forward.

"This is a normal situation in the Blood Source Realm. There is a space binding force in the void that affects the power of consciousness. The deeper you go, the stronger the binding force." Qiu Yuan noticed Shi Mu's situation and explained.

Shi Mu's face finally changed slightly. It was indeed a big trouble that his consciousness could not be expanded.

Before, when he was in the first layer, it was a bit difficult for him to expand his consciousness, but he didn't care. He didn't expect that the second layer would have such a big impact.

Shi Mu's eyes moved, and he put away his consciousness, and a layer of golden light appeared in his eyes.

Since his spiritual sense didn't work, he simply used his spiritual eyes.

As soon as he activated his spiritual eyes, his brows furrowed again.

These black mists in the forest actually hindered his spiritual eyes. His spiritual eyes could only see two or three thousand miles, which was not much stronger than his spiritual sense.

He took a deep breath and his mood soon became calm.

He had experienced this kind of situation where his spiritual sense and spiritual eyes were suppressed before.

"Let's go." Shi Mu said, grabbing with his big hand.

The yellow shield covering the three tribes shattered with a bang, and turned into a yellow light again, wrapping all the people of the three tribes, and flew forward at lightning speed.

There was a more cold breath in the surrounding air than the first layer.

After flying for a long time, a layer of black ice crystals condensed on the surface of the body, and the biting cold penetrated into the body.

However, this cold air was not difficult for Shi Mu. His body protection light became thicker and resisted the cold air.

"Roar!" As the crowd was flying, a strange roar was heard. Two mountain cat-like shadow beasts jumped out of the forest below. They were as big as cows, with blood-red eyes. They looked not very intelligent and rushed towards the crowd.

The mountain cat shadow beasts had the strength of the peak of the heavenly position. They were very fast, like two shadows. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the crowd and bit down on the two tribesmen of the ancient barbarians.

Qiu Yuan snorted coldly, and a green light spurted out of his mouth, circling around the bodies of the two mountain cat dark beasts like lightning.

The body of the mountain cat shadow beast was immediately cut into two pieces, blood splashed like rain, and the remains fell to the ground.

Shi Mu took a look at the corpses of the two mountain cat shadow beasts, and then ignored them and looked forward.

The group quickly disappeared in the distance, leaving only a little bit of light afterimage.

Near the roots of a big tree on the ground, a black stone lying horizontally wavered slightly and turned into a gray-robed woman with an extremely flat face. The facial features seemed to be painted on it, and it looked very ugly.

The gray-robed woman looked at Shi Mu and the others, her mouth curled up, revealing an ugly smile, and then her body shook, turning into a black moth the size of a person, and flew forward with her wings spread, but slightly offset from the direction of Shi Mu and the others.

Shi Mu and Miao Kong flew forward, and with their speed, they soon flew more than 100,000 miles, but the black forest below did not end at all.

The Blood Source Realm is indeed very large.

Miao Kong was flying, with the compass floating in front of him, and his hands were pinched.

The needle on the compass trembled slightly, but it always pointed to the lower front.

"It seems that the evil creature should be on the third floor at this moment." Shi Mu glanced at the compass and said.

"Well, let's speed up a little bit, my ominous premonition is getting stronger and stronger." Miao Kong nodded, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Shi Mu nodded solemnly, and he felt the same in his heart, with an ominous premonition.

The two were about to speed up, Shi Mu frowned suddenly, looked forward, and the yellow light on his body was restrained, and his figure slowed down.

A golden light flashed on Miaokong's body, and he also slowed down his escape speed.

There was a rustling sound in front of him, and countless purple light spots suddenly appeared from nowhere and quickly approached.

There were so many of them that they blocked all the ways ahead.

"This is... Shadow Poison Scorpion!" Qiu Yuan exclaimed with a change of expression when he saw these purple spots.

These purple spots were black scorpions with two huge pincers and tails like an iron whip. The tails flashed with cold purple light, which was obviously extremely poisonous.

Those purple lights were emitted by the tail hooks.

Ordinary scorpions only have eight to ten legs, but these scorpions have so many of them that they look very scary.

When other people saw these scorpions, their expressions also changed.
