Chapter 78

" Hmm? Do you know this place? " Su Shier quickly asked.

Jiang Feixue nodded, "Ezang Pit is a place of utmost yin and evil in the Yunmeng Marsh! It is always shrouded in toxic miasma and evil qi. Normally, cultivators would unconsciously detour when they get close, and no one dares to venture deep inside."

" I see, I was a bit skeptical at first, but now I believe it!" Su Shier squinted his eyes and said calmly.

His thoughts immediately became more active.

" Ah? How so? " Jiang Feixue was taken aback, looking at Su Shier with a puzzled expression, not understanding how Su Shier had come to this conclusion.

Su Shier smiled and said calmly, "The Daoist scripture says: purity arises from filth, and light is born from darkness. The Golden Holy Spring, being the most sacred, can only be born in a place of utmost filth."

As he spoke, he had already made up his mind.

He knew very well that with his spiritual root and talent, it would take an eternity to improve his cultivation through hard practice.

But a bowl of the Golden Holy Spring could replace sixty years of hard practice. Such a treasure is rare in the world.

Without much thought, he knew that the Ezang Pit must be fraught with danger!

If he could, he would prefer to prioritize safety and cultivate slowly.

But the grudge against his grandfather and the villagers still needed to be avenged, and the Great Elder was watching him closely. Even Ye Liangchuan from Tianhua Peak wanted him dead!

He had no choice.

If he couldn't quickly improve his cultivation, he would be dead.

" Yes, the principle of extremes leading to their opposites, why didn't I think of that! Brother Zhu, let's go quickly and take a look."

" If we can really find the Golden Holy Spring, we'll be rich! A bowl can replace sixty years of hard practice, enough to boost my cultivation by several levels!"

" At that time, I'll see who in my family dares to say I don't work hard in cultivation! Hehe..."

Jiang Feixue immediately showed an excited smile, grabbed Su Shier's arm, and walked out of the market.

" Hmm? You're going too? That place might be quite dangerous!"

" If you trust me, let me go alone. If I can find the Golden Holy Spring by chance, I will bring back a portion for you."

Su Shier raised an eyebrow and quickly said to Jiang Feixue.

Although he hadn't known Jiang Feixue for long, he already considered him a friend.

With his cultivation at the Seventh Level of Qi Refinement, going alone would be safer. Taking Jiang Feixue along would undoubtedly be a burden.

" Don't worry, Brother Zhu, I have a treasure of utmost yang. I can't guarantee safety elsewhere, but in the Ezang Pit, protecting you will be no problem!" Jiang Feixue looked around, patted his chest, and whispered to Su Shier.

" Alright! Since that's the case, let's go!" Hearing this, and seeing that she had a means to protect herself, Su Shier didn't say anything more.

Taking a deep breath, the two walked side by side, rushing towards the direction of the Yunmeng Marsh.

Meanwhile, inside the market.

The lecherous old man with shifty eyes walked to a secluded corner, making sure no one was around, and quickly changed into a Daoist robe.

He then disguised himself as a destitute Daoist, and his cultivation level changed from the First Level of Qi Refinement to the Second Level.

His shifty eyes quickly scanned the area, and he walked to another corner where a Fifth Level Qi Refinement young woman was standing.

" Fellow Daoist, I have a treasure. Do you want it?"

...

North of Qianshan Market, about a hundred miles away, there was a dense forest shrouded in thick fog all year round.

The forest was filled with swamps, beasts, and naturally growing heavenly and earthly lingzhi, as well as other spiritual minerals.

For this reason, many cultivators often冒险进入云梦泽，收集各种灵材。

而在云梦泽深处，坐落着一个巨大的盆地地形。

这个盆地常年被墨绿色的浓雾笼罩，雾气中混杂着浊气，散发着惊人的恶臭。

盆地内，一片片山包起伏，宛如一处小型的表里山河。

这就是令无数修士闻之色变的污浊之地，恶脏坑！

恶脏坑内一条羊肠小道上，三个身穿灰色长袍，全身被灰色斗篷罩住的灰衣人，正凑在一起。

在他们周围，横七竖八地躺着几具刚死不久的修士尸体。

旁边，一个身材略胖的灰衣人不屑地说：“这几个家伙倒是机灵，竟然想抄近道过去。”

另一边，一个瘦子淡淡地说：“那又怎么样，不过是早点送死罢了！”

“行了！赶紧把这些尸体处理掉。这次来了不少肥羊，炼了他们的魂，老夫的万魂幡就能彻底祭炼成下品灵器！”中间一个身材矮小的灰衣人不耐烦地说。

旁边，胖子立刻就要走向地上这几具尸体。

瘦子却突然喊道：“别急，让我把他们炼成炼尸，到时候再有人过来，保证让他们有来无回。”

说着，瘦子眼中闪过一抹狠光，张口喷出一粒灰绿色、蚕豆般大小的珠子。

一口真元喷在珠子上，那珠子顿时化作一团灰绿色的诡异雾气，丝丝缕缕从地上那几具尸体的鼻孔钻入。

“嘶……这好不容易炼成的尸珠，你就这么都给用了？”灰衣胖子惊呼一声。

瘦子撇撇嘴淡淡地说：“慌什么！那万骨窟中多的是尸气，等大哥的万魂幡炼成，再去凝练一颗尸珠不就好了！”

“嗯！老三，你做得很好！我们走吧，这盘大菜终于到了收场的时候了！”

矮子修士点点头，赞赏一句，转身消失在墨绿色的浓雾之中。

一胖一瘦两个灰衣人，相视一眼，也忙跟了上去。

一天后。

苏十二和江飞雪来到恶脏坑外便停下脚步，凝望着眼前被墨绿色浓雾笼罩的盆地，两人并未着急进入。

在他们的视线中，不时会有修士三五成群，忍着恶臭踏入其中。

“嗯？怎么会有这么多人过来？”

江飞雪先是一愣，随即一脸气愤地攥紧拳头，露出两颗小虎牙，

“那个该死的老头，果然没安好心。竟然把地图卖给这么多人，简直是狡诈至极！要是再让我遇到他，我一定一拳一拳，打爆他的狗头！”

“无妨，有了那眼睛法器，我们已经不亏了。若真是运气好，再找到金圣灵泉，更是血赚！”苏十二面带微笑淡淡地说。

对于这种情况，他一点也不意外。

如果真的只有他们两人过来，他反而要小心一些了。

这么多的修士，在他看来，真有什么危险，浑水摸鱼，也更好跑路。
