Chapter 59 Ch 59: Miasma
The group of people that is standing in the front and were the first ones to arrive here were feeling rather annoyed and anxious. Because arriving first doesn\'t mean exploring the Earth King\'s Ancient Land first. Now, when the restriction will disappear, everyone will enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land together. The difference between them entering will only be a few seconds to a few minutes.
At this time, people in Alex\'s group were chatting happily.
"I\'m really looking forward to entering the Earth King\'s Ancient Land. I wonder what\'s so good about it that made so many people go crazy in order to enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land." One of the disciples of the Mystical Peak named Gu Ling clapped her hands and said as her small face filled with excitement.
"It is said that the Earth King\'s strength was at the Heavenly Completion Stage. The inheritance left behind by a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warrior is already extremely attractive to even Origin Sea Stage martial warriors. So, it is natural for this the opening of this Ancient Land to attract so many people." Ivaan was the one who explained this time.
After obtaining the memories of the previous owner of this body, Alex already knew what Heavenly Completion Stage means. After Golden Core Stage is the Spirit Origin Stage following which is Origin Sea Stage. And after a martial warrior breaks through the limit of the Origin Sea Stage, they\'ll step into the Heavenly Completion Stage.
It is no wonder this Ancient Land has attracted so many people. Even powerhouses like Ivaan, Aaban, and the old man were attracted to this Ancient Land and come here to explore.
As for him, he was sent here by Atticus. He couldn\'t understand what is this trial he is going through. Does he have to just let the things go as they are going or does he has to survive in this world? And if he has to survive here, then the question is for how long?
There were many unanswered questions in Alex\'s mind. He couldn\'t help but return and ask Atticus the content of the trial first. All of this was simply too confusing for him.
Let\'s say, even if he were to enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land and encountered many heavenly treasures, causing his strength to sky-rocket. Could it be that even his true body\'s cultivation will increase?
As far as he knew, it should be impossible. His true body\'s cultivation will definitely not increase. Then what is the meaning of sending him here?
The group of Mystical Peak has a total of seven people including Alex and Ivaan. Among the rest of five people, three were boys and two were girls. The boys were Kim Min-Oh, Raymond Smith, and Hugo Finn.
As for the girls, their names are Ezra Ivy and Eloise Fiore.
From the memories of the previous owner, Alex knew that he has offended quite a lot of people. When it comes to enmity, there are many people who want to kill him. The previous owner of this body was not a good person. He likes to bully others and take advantage of them.
However, there are still a few good points about the previous owner. He likes to be informed about everything. He knew the names and many things about almost all the people of the Mystical Peak.
He knew that the two girls rarely went out, so coming to the Earth King\'s Ancient Land to explore was an exciting journey for them. However, among these two girls, only one girl was stronger than Alex. She is Eloise Fiore. Eloise Fiore is a martial warrior of Level 9 Golden Core Stage. She is a quiet girl but extremely cold. She doesn\'t like it when someone wants to fawn over her or take advantage of her.
The few of them chatted a bit more relaxed than before. Eloise stood at the side and watched everyone chatting quietly. Her shallow eyes were indifferent as she kept observing everything.
Large and small mountain peaks were packed with people and the teams of the major powers were quite conspicuous in the sea of people. Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
BOOM!
Soon after, a beam of purple light shot out and pierced through the layers of clouds in the sky. It was exactly the same as what happened a few hours ago. The layer of purple restrictions at the entrance to the Earth King\'s Ancient Land disappeared and the entrance to the Earth King\'s Ancient Land appeared in front of everyone\'s line of sight.
Crash!
The entire scene fell into an uproar as a huge commotion stirred up among the people present in the Earth King Valley. Some of them could no longer hold themselves back and rushed inside like a black tide.
However, in just a few blinks of an eye, heart-wrenching screams rang out from within the valley. Everyone was shocked. Before they could regain their senses, the people who just entered the Earth King\'s Ancient Land all rushed out as if they had seen a ghost. The people who had been walking in the front were now climbing out of the cave as if their lives depended on it.
"Help! Help!"
"Save, save us!"
Hiss!
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. All they saw was that the people crawling out had dark green hair grown out on their body and their faces has turned as ugly as black charcoal. They couldn\'t see the expression on their faces, but their pale pupils were filled with endless pain and suffering.
"What a bunch of idiots. At least be sure you can withstand the miasma inside before rushing to enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land?" At this time, the old man who wanted to kill Alex shouted loudly.
Miasma?
Everyone\'s face changed as they looked at the 30 odd people crawling out of the ground. Not long after, they lay on the ground without moving.
At this time, a powerful middle-aged man come forward and shouted in a deep voice, "Those whose strength is not even at the Golden Core Stage, it\'s best not to go in. You should know there are three floors inside the Earth King\'s Ancient Land. You guys can\'t even pass the first floor, so if you enter this Earth King\'s Ancient Land, you will die."
Upon hearing these words, sighs echoed in the Earth King Valley. The voice of this middle-aged man directly stopped the footsteps of those below the Golden Core Stage. Looking at the shocking corpses at the entrance of the valley, everyone could only stop in their tracks.
"Hmph." The old man Song coldly glanced at the crowd and waved his hand at the disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect that he has brought, and said, "Enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land."
The team of Hundred Poison Sect was close to the entrance of Earth King\'s Ancient Land so they started to move first. A group of almost fifteen people entered the Earth King\'s Ancient Land under the envious gazes of the crowd.
Soon after, the teams of other powerful forces also entered the Earth King\'s Ancient Land, disappearing from the sight of the crown standing in the Earth King Valley.
Finally, at this time, Ivaan turned around to look at the disciples of Mystical Peak behind him, and said, "Let\'s also enter the Earth King\'s Ancient Land. We can\'t delay any longer."
They also headed towards the entrance. The crowd at the front consciously parted to form a path. There were no martial warriors below Golden Stage in their team so no one left the team.
As soon as they entered the Earth King\'s Ancient Land, they saw smoke drifting in front of them. The smoke rose in spirals, cutting off the crowd\'s line of sight.
"It\'s miasma. Everyone hold your breath, don\'t breathe in this poisonous gas." Ivaan reminded everyone.
With the previous examples of those people, no one dared to underestimate this miasma. Each of them held their breaths and channeled their spirit energy to protect their entire bodies.
No one dared to speak in the smoke. The only things within one\'s line of sight were a few meters of land. In this situation, everyone could only carefully follow the few people in front of them.
The mountain path within the Earth King\'s Ancient Land was very rugged, and from time to time, they would step on a corpse with a jet-black face. These people were all who rushed inside the Earth King\'s Ancient Land the moment the restriction was lifted and had all been killed by the miasma here. Just the first floor had caused so many people to halt in their tracks. It was really a mystery as to what kind of shocking secret was hidden in the depths of the Earth King\'s Ancient Land.
