The trees were twisted and grotesque, and the light was dim beneath their dense canopies.
Chen Qing followed behind the others, heading deeper into the Ten Thousand Poison Swamp.
They hadn't gone far when four or five shadowy figures appeared in a sparse grove of strange trees up ahead and to their side.
Their clothes were all different, and they carried various weapons and packs.
"Let's move!"
Upon seeing Chen Qing's party, the figures clearly grew tense. After exchanging a glance, they quickly changed direction, gave them a wide berth, and vanished into the dense forest on the other side, moving as swiftly as startled animals.
Chen Qing was not surprised by this.
Before coming here, he had researched a lot about the Ten Thousand Poison Swamp and had also gotten a good deal of information from Li Wang.
In this treacherous swamp, strangers were the greatest source of danger.
'Avoid contact at all costs!'
