35 Testing on ones self (1/2)

That was what she was trying to understand.

Forests were the quite dangerous places, if the forest was large enough, who knew how many predators would be lurking in the darkness and under the cover of trees.

Though it is like an endless maze, where one could lose an attacker, it was also a place where one was likely to get lost. If a person had no wilderness survival skills, it would only be a matter of time before they starved to death, or got eaten by a wild animal.

There were too many possibilities to go over.

Let's not mention, the number of poisonous plants and berries that could be found in the forest. If a person had mistaken a poisonous herb for an edible one, then it would only spell a disaster.

Xue'er felt that if an assassin manages to get someone that has zero wilderness survival skills whatsoever to run into the woods and lose their way, they wouldn't even need to lift a pinky and allow the rule of survival of the fittest to take over.

Of course, one could never underestimate a person's willpower to live.

Xue'er thought as she soared in the air with her lightness skills. There was a cool breeze that passed through her veil, allowing her head to feel refreshed.

[How kind of Gan Tian Chi to make a hat for me.]

Of course, Xue'er didn't believe this for a moment that he would make a veiled bamboo hat for no reason.

[There must be something.]

Before she knew it, she had arrived at the most poisonous and forbidden part of the forest.

The area of that place was quite small, perhaps no larger than a small city, but it was said to be shrouded in miasma all year round that birds dared not fly in and animals dare not take a step further. Inside, the place is filled with hundreds of different types of snakes and insects.

Such places were said to be a poison lover's paradise, but a nightmare to those who have chosen the path of healing...

As there was no known cure.

[I guess I'll see if the rumors live up to reality.]

She entered the thick miasma. It seemed as if her body had been swallowed up by the large ground clouds, that resembled fog, but its color was a gray that was very close to black.

The miasma easily penetrated the veil and floated around her body. But it did absolutely nothing to her, aside from covering her in a fog that had a putrid smell.

Needless to say, she was disappointed.

The miasma was somewhat close to the forest that was on the outskirts of the forbidden ground that she had lived in. Although her body did not have much of a reaction to it, she knew that it was far more potent.

[Maybe it did live up to its name after all.]
