Chapter 182: Dirty Land
After escaping for dozens of feet along the passage he came from, Duan Qing landed and gasped slightly when he felt that the strange insect was not chasing him.
He looked very ugly at this time, not because he had accidentally inhaled the dirty air before, but because he had lost the mysterious metal!
Mysterious metal is his greatest support for practice. It can be said that without mysterious metal, he would not be what he is today. In his heart, its importance is far higher than the spiritual treasure golden bowl.
What's more important is that without the mysterious metal to open the small stone, he will be unable to move even an inch inside the giant Kun! Escape from this place is a fantasy!
The mysterious metal must be recovered!
He couldn't bear it for a moment, and immediately reached back gently. When he reached the entrance of the passage, he was stunned for a moment. The entrance of the passage that originally led directly to the slime space was actually blocked by small stones!
For a moment, he wondered if he had taken the wrong path, but although the passage was twists and turns, it was the same path for coming and going, and there were no other side roads!
Then this small stone must have been sealed after he escaped back to the passage. No wonder no strange insects came after him just now!
Thinking about it now, he really regretted why he was so frightened by those strange insects and ran away in a hurry! Even if some spiritual liquid is used to activate the spiritual treasure golden bowl, the mysterious metal must be recovered first!
Now that the mysterious metal is out of hand, the small stones cannot be opened. If you want to retrieve the mysterious metal, you have to go through the small stones in front of you and reach the slime area! He seemed to be stuck in a deadlock.
Although he had seen that there were more than a dozen passages in the slime area leading to other areas, he didn't know where they lead. Secondly, even if there were other passages leading to the slime area, there would probably be small rocks blocking them.
The only way now is to wait! Since the passage here was opened before, he would wait until it would open again!
Duan Qing suppressed his temper, sat cross-legged at the entrance of the passage and waited silently. He waited for nearly a day until the majestic tremolo sounded again the next day.
As the tremolo sounded, Duan Qing's body once again involuntarily trembled following the strange rhythm. Just like yesterday, the tremolo lasted for a cup of tea before disappearing.
When the tremolo disappeared, Duan Qing found that the injuries on his body had healed, and his physical strength had also improved slightly!
What surprised Duan Qing even more was that as soon as the tremolo disappeared, the small stones at the entrance of the passage suddenly shrank, opening the passage to the mucus area.
Duan Qing was overjoyed and quickly used his sword skills to rush into the slime area. However, the situation under his feet made him a little dumbfounded. The slime that was still there yesterday disappeared without a trace. Even the strange insects disappeared without a trace. There are large rocks on the ground!
Unwilling to give up, he dropped to the ground to check carefully. Maybe the mysterious metal was stuck in a crack somewhere!
After some searching, he desperately found that the mysterious metal was not here, but where had the mysterious metal gone?
He had carefully inspected the ground. It was all made up of large rocks, and there were no small stones that looked like passages. He glanced at the dozens of passage openings in the dome and the opposite passage leading to the filthy land.
Since the mysterious metal is no longer here, it must have flowed into one of the channels along with the mucus!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing decided to investigate one by one, starting with the most likely passage leading to the dirty land.
At this moment, Duan Qing suddenly felt a pressure coming from his whole body. Before he could react, he saw countless mucus spurting out from dozens of channels in the dome along with thousands of light spots. Almost in the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with liquid. The mucus accumulated one to two feet deep and drowned Duan Qing!
Duan Qing looked carefully in the mucus, and found that those light spots were the same strange insects as yesterday. He was shocked and was about to use sword control to escape from the mucus.
But at this time, he noticed that although countless strange insects were indeed exactly the same as yesterday's strange insects, for some reason these strange insects seemed to be sleeping, either curled up in a circle and motionless in the mucus, or just shaking their limbs instinctively. .
Seeing this, he gave up the idea of escape, put away the giant green, and tried to poke a strange insect in front of him with his finger. The strange insect did not react at all, and still seemed to be sleeping.
His hanging heart suddenly relaxed a lot, and he looked at the countless slimes and strange insects in front of him, wondering whether these slimes might be the slimes that disappeared before. If so, then the mysterious metal is probably among them!
No matter, let's look for it first. He immediately padded through the mucus gently, looking for his mysterious metal.
After a stick of incense passed, he was disappointed that the mysterious metal was not in the mucus. Fortunately, no matter how he moved, the strange insects always regarded him as nothing.
This made him feel a little strange, why were the monster insects so ferocious yesterday but so docile today? Is it because I cast the Suzaku Armor yesterday, or is it because of the turbid energy?
But no matter what, it's always a good thing to be at peace with the monsters!
At some point, the passage he came from had been blocked by small rocks again. With no way out, he could only stay in the slime for the time being.
According to his observation, this mucus seems to contain a lot of spiritual energy. The reason why countless strange insects are sleeping may be because they are absorbing the spiritual energy in it. Other than that, the slime didn't seem to be harmful to him.
Since neither the strange bugs nor the slime posed a threat to him for the time being, Duan Qing decided to stay in the slime. Since the slime disappeared for no reason after the passage was closed yesterday, these slimes and strange bugs must have done the same today.
In this way, as long as he stays in the slime, he should be able to figure out where yesterday's slime went, and maybe even find the mysterious metal in one fell swoop.
This went on for about three hours, and the strange insects in the mucus gradually became active, stretching out their curled bodies and paddling in the mucus.
Fortunately, the strange insects still seemed to have no hostility towards him. Even when they swam past him or even touched him, they had no intention of attacking him.
Duan Qing did not dare to move rashly, nor did he dare to use the Suzaku Armor to protect his body. He was not sure whether the strange insects were so ferocious yesterday because he used the Suzaku Armor. If so, wouldn’t he be courting death if he rashly used the Suzaku Armor!
At this moment, the originally calm surface of the mucus suddenly began to violently agitate, and a strong suction force suddenly descended on Duan Qing.
It’s finally here!
Duan Qing did not resist. He was waiting for this moment, allowing the suction force to suck him and the mucus into the passage leading to the filthy land.
After a few breaths, Duan Qing was sucked into the filthy place that he had caught a glimpse of yesterday. As soon as he entered this place, he once again felt the breath that made him feel nauseous yesterday. Fortunately, he was well prepared this time and had been holding his breath beforehand, so he did not inhale it.
