Chapter 648 - 648 648 Shadowless Poison Maggots Fourth Update

648: Chapter 648: Shadowless Poison Maggots (Fourth Update) 648: Chapter 648: Shadowless Poison Maggots (Fourth Update) “Not good, the Resurrection Mark has disappeared.”

At this moment, everyone discovered that the Resurrection Mark had mysteriously disappeared, which was their life-saving symbol.

“Everyone, be careful.

This forbidden area is very tricky.”

Upon entering the forbidden area, the Resurrection Mark mysteriously disappeared, serving as a warning of danger.

In the pursuit of the Emperor Weapon, everyone pressed forward with determination.

As they ventured deeper, the black fog grew denser and the field of vision shrank.

Everyone was tightly wound, proceeding cautiously.

However, after traveling a distance of three to four miles, they did not encounter any danger, and some people gradually lowered their guard.

“Be careful, this fog is poisonous.”

At this moment, Long Yan warned Blood Mad Butcher and the others.

He practiced the Poison God Finger and was extremely sensitive to poison.

Although the black fog appeared normal, it actually contained poison; it was a poisonous fog.

Upon hearing this, the Blood Mad Butcher and his companions became alert and held their breath.

They set up a Protective Gang Qi around their bodies to keep the black fog at bay.

Time passed slowly, and an hour later, everyone went another ten miles deeper but still did not encounter any danger.

The majority of them let down their guard, including some in the Nirvana Realm.

“Brother Long Yan, there’s something on your back.”

At this moment, Jun Wuhui said to Long Yan.

“What?”

Hearing this, Long Yan’s expression instantly became alert, and he had an eerie feeling.

“Look, it’s this.”

Jun Wuhui reached out and wrapped the thing on Long Yan’s back with a force, then presented it in front of Long Yan.

“This is…”

Wrapped in the force, there was something the size of a hair strand, to be precise, it was even thinner and more delicate than a hair strand.

But this tiny thing clearly had a fluctuating life force.

“Shadowless Poison Maggots.”

Long Yan’s gaze shrank as he said in a low voice.

Shadowless Poison Maggots were thinner and finer than hair strands, hardly noticeable if one wasn’t careful.

Moreover, Shadowless Poison Maggots could evade the detection of Divine Sense.

Shadowless Poison Maggots could silently enter a person’s body, devouring their life force, and were extremely terrifying.

Even an Emperor Realm cultivator wouldn’t last long.

Shadowless Poison Maggots could dodge the detection of Divine Sense.

Once they entered the body, it was very difficult to force them out, and it would be troublesome even for an Emperor to deal with.

“This is a Shadowless Poison Maggot, be careful.”

Long Yan warned everyone.

Once a Shadowless Poison Maggot entered the body, it meant almost certain death.

Long Yan did not dare to be negligent, and quickly placed a Protective Gang Qi on the surface of his body.

Shadowless Poison Maggots were not considered poison, and once they entered the body, even the Poison God Finger would be useless.

Shadowless Poison Maggots hid within the black fog, making it difficult to guard against, which was the terrifying aspect of Shadowless Poison Maggots.

“Ah, save me!”

At this moment, a disciple from the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance screamed.

His face was turning black, clearly deeply poisoned.

Within a short while, he fell to the ground and died.

“What’s going on?”

Everyone was startled by this sudden event.

Everything seemed fine, yet how did someone suddenly die?

From the looks of it, it was clearly death by poisoning.

Immediately after, many others experienced the same condition.

In less than a moment, nearly a thousand people had perished.

All seven major forces suffered at least hundreds of losses, and Xumi Continent also lost dozens of people.

“What on Earth is going on?”

Everyone felt horrified by this mysterious situation.

It was utterly imperceptible, no wonder this place was called a forbidden zone.

“It’s the Shadowless Poison Maggots.”

Long Yan said, “These Shadowless Poison Maggots are hiding in the black fog.

These people let down their guard, allowing the Shadowless Poison Maggots to enter their bodies.”

Shadowless Poison Maggots were not very strong.

With Protective Gang Qi in place, they could be blocked on the outside.

“Shadowless Poison Maggots.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s gaze shrank, as they naturally knew the terror of Shadowless Poison Maggots.

At this moment, everyone hastily set up a Protective Gang Qi barrier.

The Shadowless Poison Maggots had not yet entered their bodies, which was fortunate for them, but if they continued like this, they might not be so lucky.

Everyone then carefully inspected the area and indeed found that Shadowless Poison Maggots were present in the black fog, causing them to shudder in fear.

“Shadowless Poison Maggots aren’t very strong.

With Protective Gang Qi, we should be fine.

Let’s continue.”

Following this, everyone continued to move forward.

Knowing that Shadowless Poison Maggots were the cause, things were much easier to deal with.

“Those who entered here before probably died from these Shadowless Poison Maggots.”

Those who had entered here before must have been unaware of these Shadowless Poison Maggots, resulting in their unknowingly dying here.

As expected, they soon found several white bones not far ahead, which should have been from the people who fell here, leaving behind these remains.

These remains had corroded for thousands of years and had decayed.

“With so many Shadowless Poison Maggots here, there must be a mother maggot.

I wonder where the nest of these Shadowless Poison Maggots is.”

In secret, Long Yan was contemplating the location of the Shadowless Poison Maggots’ nest.

The mother maggot of the Shadowless Poison Maggots carried Origin Poison Element, which would help him cultivate the Poison God Finger and allow him to reach Mahayana in the mastery of this technique.

At present, although the Poison God Finger could threaten the average Emperor Realm cultivator, it was not very effective.

If he could cultivate the Poison God Finger to Mahayana, it would become one of his trump cards.

As they moved forward, Long Yan carefully observed the movements of the Shadowless Poison Maggots.

“It should be in this direction.”

After a while, Long Yan had locked in a direction.

“Old Blood, I have something to do for a moment.”

After informing Blood Mad Butcher, Long Yan quietly left the main force.

Aside from Jun Wuhui and a few others, no one noticed him.

“Hopefully, I won’t encounter any other dangers.”

Long Yan prayed inwardly that he wouldn’t encounter any other threats.

Shadowless Poison Maggots didn’t pose much danger to him, but if he faced other hazards, things would be uncertain.

Long Yan’s speed was fast, and an hour later, he arrived outside a concealed underground cave entrance.

“This must be the lair of the Shadowless Poison Maggots.”

Swarms of Shadowless Poison Maggots surrounded the cave entrance, indicating that the underground cave absolutely housed the lair of the Shadowless Poison Maggots.

“Innate Five Elements True Fire.”

Long Yan waved his hand, and the Innate Five Elements True Fire surged out, enveloping the poison maggots at the entrance of the cave.

Thick black smoke emerged, and within a moment, the Shadowless Poison Maggots were burned to ashes.

“Let’s go in.”

Afterward, Long Yan entered the underground cave.

Inside the cave was a long passage filled with innumerable Shadowless Poison Maggots, causing one’s scalp to tingle.

Long Yan didn’t hesitate and continued to release the Innate Five Elements True Fire to burn the Shadowless Poison Maggots.

Shadowless Poison Maggots had no resistance to the Innate Five Elements True Fire, and as soon as they came into contact, they inevitably died.

Long Yan delved deeper into the cave, and hundreds of thousands of Shadowless Poison Maggots fell prey to him.
