C147 Abyssal Mountain (2/2)

The trees inside seemed to have been around for a very long time. They were over a hundred feet tall and covered the entire sky with their leaves.

Perhaps the depressing atmosphere was related to this environment.

However, after they carefully walked forward for a few minutes, they realized that the Abyssal Mountain was terrifyingly quiet. This kind of silence was not simply silence, but a kind of silence that was akin to death, a silence without any signs of life. Other than the crunching of fallen leaves and withered branches under their feet, there was no other sound. There wasn't even the chirping of birds and insects that they had heard before.

”So many warriors had come here, why is it that there's not even the slightest trace of their presence? Why can't I find any trace of their presence?”

After all, Liu Mubai was only a fifteen or sixteen year old teenager. He wasn't the only one who thought about what he said. Even the others had noticed the abnormality.

The place they had chosen to enter was the place where the most martial artists had entered. However, once they entered, they discovered that there was nothing here. This caused them to feel extremely anxious and impatient.

Could it be that the Abyssal Mountain was really as unlucky as the rumors said? Everyone looked at each other. They could sense traces of fear from each other's eyes. Although they had experienced life and death and had long since seen through it, everything in front of them made them feel fear that came from the bottom of their hearts.

”It's the fog here. Everyone be careful, this Abyssal Mountain is definitely not simple.”

With Qin Shaojie's level of experience, even though it was rather strange at the start, after looking around, he finally opened his mouth and spoke in a low voice.

The greyness was not only due to the light being blocked, but it was also due to the fog!

Everyone could see through the mist at a glance, but other than Qin Shaojie, the other five people did not have a single sense for the mist, which showed just how powerful it was. This kind of fog was even thicker than the gas in the air. However, it was far from the normal density of the fog. Therefore, it was impossible to truly see it with one's naked eyes.

However, Qin Shaojie's consciousness was far stronger than that of ordinary people's, so when he quietly released his mind consciousness, he naturally felt the difference.

He had encountered this fog before in his previous life, but most of the time, it existed during the battle between the two armies. a technique used especially to confuse the enemy.

This was because even though the fog seemed colorless, tasteless, and didn't have any poison, it was extremely easy to lose one's vigilance. However, there was one of the most special functions of the mist, which was to be able to completely absorb and remove the smell that permeated the air.

Not to mention people, even if a magical beast pooped here, it would not be able to smell any of the stench. This kind of mist was able to absorb a martial artist's aura, and it was enough to show how powerful it was.

However, what made Qin Shaojie think differently was that this method was commonly used in troops, so why would this Abyssal Mountain appear?

Furthermore, according to Qin Shaojie's judgement, this mist was not released exclusively by the Abyssal Mountain, because this mist only lasted for three to five days. After that, this mist would become one with the energy of heaven and earth.

Therefore, a bold guess quietly popped up in Qin Shaojie's mind, which was that the fog must have been deliberately released by someone, and that person might have had a close relationship with the army.

Thinking about it, Qin Shaojie's eyes also squinted, it was obvious that if his guess was correct, then this trip to the Abyssal Mountain would not just be a simple gathering point, there might be some huge conspiracy behind it.

But Qin Shaojie did not say anything to Wen Ya and the others.

It was just Qin Shaojie's guess, if he said it out loud, it would cause them to worry, and since it was like that, they might as well not tell anyone else.

”Everyone follow me closely, don't go the wrong way!”

With a low and deep voice, Qin Shaojie took a deep breath and walked towards the depths of Abyssal Mountain.

However, the step that he took the lead to walk was a little different this time around. His footsteps were different from ordinary walking, one shallow and one deep.

This fog could only consume Qi, but it could not consume the imprints it left behind.

If anything were to happen inside, Qin Shaojie would be able to quickly find a path based on the footprints he had left behind.
