Chapter 736: Chapter 736: Red Toad!

Tang Zhong, gripping his Tang Sword, walked toward the front.

Swinging the sword wildly, he chopped down.

The Killing Flower that he directly slashed bled crimson blood from the wound, followed by a scream that shockingly resembled a human’s voice.

"Be careful, hurry up!"

Tang Zhong yelled to the people behind him.

At this moment, they felt as if they were racing against death itself.

The members of the White Tiger Team also immediately followed behind. In their minds, they had already begun to view Tang Zhong as the leader of this venture.

As long as they followed Tang Zhong, they would survive—that was everyone’s belief.

But the grass around them was growing more and more rampant, turning into insects that pounced on them like caterpillars, or fierce cheetahs hunting their prey, desperately trying to burrow into their bodies.

There were too many insects, and they were too difficult to avoid. Some bugs had managed to penetrate a person’s body, but that person, without a second thought, promptly sliced off the flesh where the bugs entered. Despite the bloody mess, he kept running forward—after all, losing a piece of flesh was far better than death.

Tang Zhong saw this and felt a profound heartache. The cost of this ordeal was truly too great.

He now had to find the thing that was granting these plants their vitality.

Perhaps that would be the way to stop all this.

At that moment, countless bugs flew towards Tang Zhong, but with a sweep of his sword and a flash of the blade’s light, those bugs shattered into pieces instantly.

"Go!"

At this time, a small broken house appeared in front of them.

Next to the house was a river.

The water was not the usual blue color, but a gruesome red—it was literally a river of blood.

The river flowed downstream.

One could see fish leaping in and out of the water.

These were no ordinary fish; each one had sharp teeth. They were piranhas, even more ferocious than the common kind. From a great distance away, one could hear the clashing of teeth, indicating the fish’s voracious appetite for food.

"My God... I swear, this is definitely the most dangerous place I’ve ever seen!" exclaimed a member of the protection squad.

"Yeah!"

In their past missions in the outside world, they had been to many perilous places, but they had never encountered anywhere as perilous as this—never!

Tang Zhong continued to lead the group forward, his eagerness to uncover what lay within this place growing stronger.

A large group of people dared not get close to the riverbank; if those fish were to leap out of the river, it would be a disaster. They had no doubt that these fish could survive even if flung onto the road.

On the other side, there were sheer cliffs.

They all walked close to the cliff wall.

But soon, a scream echoed through the air.

The fish did not jump out, so whence came the scream?

Tang Zhong turned around and saw countless lizards rushing down from the wall. Giant lizards, with the abilities of chameleons, swallowed a person’s head whole and then rapidly climbed back up the wall, using the human body to leisurely chew. The person whose head was swallowed struggled at first, but soon stopped moving.

"Damn it, kill these bastards!" Seeing their companion eaten, the members of the White Tiger Squad could no longer remain calm. They drew their guns and fired, bang bang bang.

Powerful revolvers struck the lizards in the head, their heads exploding in green liquid.

They were all martial artists, with Blood Power bursting from their arms as they thrust at the lizards.

If the lizards weren’t sneak attacking, they’d be no match for the hands of the White Tiger Squad.

"Kill... kill them all, leave none behind, slaughter them all, don’t leave any alive!"

"Damn it!"

The White Tiger Squad boiled with rage.

"Keep moving, conserve your strength!" Tang Zhong shouted.

They had run out of food, and if they didn’t conserve their strength, it would really be the end of them. Despite the abundance of fish here, no one dared to eat them; the dangers were everywhere. Presently, only getting registered was of the utmost importance.

A large group of people rushed forward, paying no attention to their surroundings. There was a slope ahead, covered with moss that glistened a vibrant green, and it was wet.

Tang Zhong was the first to see it and immediately sat down on it, sliding down like he was on a slide.

"Everyone sit, don’t stand!" Tang Zhong commanded.

Upon hearing Tang Zhong’s words, some people promptly sat down and, like sliding on a slide, swiftly slid down it.

Others failed to react in time and, as they stepped onto the mossy slope, staggered immediately, unable to stand upright, swaying from side to side.

One person, unsteady on their feet, tumbled over and fell right into the river nearby.

They hadn’t even fully entered the river.

In an instant, several man-eating fish emerged, their jaws snapping loudly as they bit and devoured the person’s body. The victim didn’t even have the chance to scream before they were stripped to the bone.

Seeing their comrade die this way, some people sweated profusely out of anger and didn’t hesitate to fire a few shots at the water, "Damn it, I’ll kill you bastards!"

They managed to explode a few fish.

But it was futile; their comrades were dead.

Tang Zhong had seen it all; the loss had been great this time. Looking at the few remaining members of the White Tiger Squad, Tang Zhong resolved that he couldn’t let another person die. He had to ensure these people survived and obtained that thing filled with Blood Power.

They descended the slope.

At that moment,

what appeared before them was a swamp.

A shallow swamp!

With water just covering their ankles!

The group moved through the water, holding their breath for fear of encountering something terrible. Their hearts pounded in their chests. Some grasped revolvers, others held daggers, all of them on high alert for any trouble they might not dodge, that could end their lives there.

But the surroundings were calm.

Clutching his Tang Sword, Tang Zhong’s heightened senses couldn’t pick up any disturbance around them.

It seemed safe here, but they remained on their guard.

Suddenly, a croaking sound echoed around them.

Everyone instantly became vigilant, eyes scanning the surroundings.

At the same time, Tang Zhong’s eyes widened as he felt a powerful surge of Blood Power drawing near, and it was close by.

Looking intently, he saw a red toad hopping in the shallow water up ahead. The toad was unusual in appearance, with blood-red skin and red pupils to match.

After several comparisons, Tang Zhong was certain that this was the massive source of Blood Power!

Incredibly, it was a toad.

The others were also stunned speechless.

Tang Zhong drew his sword immediately. This toad, it had to be captured; the members of the White Tiger Squad had given up so much Life.

But at that moment, the toad seemed to notice them too and turned its head to glance at the crowd. It quickly attempted to hop away, while spitting out blood as it did so.

Seeing the toad was about to flee, Tang Zhong roared, "Quick... grab it, we can’t let it get away!"

The others moved quickly forward.

But to their great surprise, the blood the toad spat out landed on a huge stone.

And in that instant, the stone actually began to shake.

As if it had come to life!
