Book 2, Chapter 11 – Entering the Marsh
Ning’s squad, h the borders of the mountain forest
“Look” Uncle Dala pointed in front “Eastmount Marsh is up ahead”
“Eastmount Marsh”
Ning stared off into the distance
An enormous, endless lake stretched far into the distance, flashi+ng with the beautiful light of the spring sun At one glance, one could see flying beasts diving down and snatching up fish, or sost the reeds Occasionally, a massive head would be seen This was the world of monsters!
“East murmured “We’re finally here”
Eastmount Marsh was located between the territory of the Ji clan and the Ironwood clan The Ironwood clan was a hegemonic power on par with the Ji clan, but it was the Ji clan’s enemy!
Eastmount Marsh was over a thousand kilometers wide, and was on par in size with a ‘province’ in his previous life Such an enormous lake…naturally had countless monstrous beasts here The monstrous beasts which the Ji clan knew about numbered up to twelve!
Ever since leaving the Ji clan of the West Prefecture and adventuring ,Ning had wanted to go fight with a few Xiantian level Diremonsters, but Diremonsters were all hidden within the deep lakes and tall mountains How could they be so easily found? In the past, he had spent nearly an entireiht to Eastmount Marsh!+
“There are many monsters in Eastmount Marsh, and many of them are early Xiantian level I refuse to believe I won’t encounter a single one” Ning was like a newborn calf who didn’t know theof fear However, he didn’t dare to be too incautious either, because many clansmen of the Ji clan had died here in Eastrandfather, who had died here at Eastmount Marsh!+

“Mowu Autu leapt off the back of his black ferobeast and instructed, “Easter everywhere In addition, the black ferobeasts are of no use in the water The two of you, take these three black ferobeasts and head to the Metalstone Tribe Wait for me at the Metalstone Tribe!”
Mowu and Autulanced at each other They could only reply respectfully, “Yes, young master”
“Dala” Ning looked at the swarthy, big et used to the general areas around here, and then you can go back and rest at the Metalstone Tribe as well”
“Yes, young master” Uncle Dala said respectfully
“Let’s go”
Ning ireataxe, followed behind Autu h they were nervous, there was nothing they could do One of theexperience Their poas far inferior to Ning’s
The vast lake was filled with myriad beautiful scenes
“Within this great lake, there are places with islands of firhed “In fact, there are even soes But of course, most of the muddy areas, if you step into them, you’ll sink into the marsh…and in addition, there is of course the immeasurably deep lake itself Within the marsh, it is difficult to move about, and if you aren’t careful, you’ll sink into it”
Ning was right next to him
“Our Metalstone Tribe has lived in a village near the marsh for centuries now, and often come here to fish We know exactly where which roads are passable and which aren’t” Uncle Dala was very confident
Pa! Pa!
Striding through the h Eastmount Marsh
“Look” A beastskin parch’s hands “This is the map of Eastmount Lake Lead me to these circled areas”
“Ah!” Uncle Dala was terrified “These…these are all places where Direerous places We don’t dare go near them”
“You don’t need to go near the shook his head “Just lead o”
Uncle Dala’s forehead was covered in sweat He nodded “Alright I’ll lead you, young master”

Eastmount Marsh was simply too vast It was indeed quite slow for thes alone In addition, this was Ning’s first ti pathways stretched for thousands of kilouided hi theate this marsh
In the blink of an eye, over a month passed
Ning had carried food and beverages within his kalestone, and in addition, they could roast the meat of some monstrous beasts Whenever they went to sleep, they would just find a randoo challenge those hidden Diremonsters First, he wanted to locate the on his ‘one with the world’ level of footwork to easily walk atop the surface of the lake water He would be able to traverse a thousand kilole day
“This is the last place” Uncle Dala pointed frorowth of aquatic plants, at least three ht there, where the aquatic plants are growing, is the lair of a Greater Beast Supposedly, this is an extree rhinoceros, an aquatic rhinoceros the size of a small mountain”
“Alright Let’s go back After returning to the Metalstone Tribe, I will definitely reward you heavily” Ning said
“Young h” Uncle Dala said hastily
This seely powerful During their month in Eastmount Marsh, they had been attacked by quite a few le blow of the youngster’s sword! Ning didn’t care about the corpses of the monstrous beasts either, but Uncle Dala’s heart ached every time This was monstrous beast flesh If they sold it, the tribe would be in a much better situation, but he couldn’t carry it all back, so all he could do was to carve out a few choice parts and take them with him
“Hr and Uncle Dala both suddenly stared into the distance
Froures within
Deep in the marsh, there were solid areas, e mountain That mountain was known as the East Mountain, which hy this marsh was known as Eastmount Marsh
