After entering Back Village, the group walked several hundred paces through the deathly silence and oppressive stillness before reaching a bog.
In the bog, stagnant water bubbled through the sludge, foul-smelling, dark crimson, and muddy.
Scattered stone bricks were embedded across the bog, stretching intermittently into the distance.
By stepping on those bricks, they could cross the bog.
Master She said nothing. As though nothing were amiss, he stepped onto the bricks and walked ahead.
Mo Hua followed behind, but his eyelids twitched violently.
To Gu An and the others, this was merely a somewhat disgusting bog.
But Mo Hua could see densely packed, crimson Evil Spirit blood leeches drifting through the air.
If they took even one wrong step upon these stone bricks, who knew how many blood leeches would burrow into their Seas of Consciousness and contaminate their Divine Consciousness.
This was a Blood Leech Pool.
Mo Hua glanced at Master She again.
Master She appeared entirely normal, as if he saw this as nothing more than an ordinary bog. Yet there was a faint venomous cast to his gaze.
That old bastard might not be able to see these blood leeches, but he definitely knows how dangerous this bog is. He wants to use it to trap us...
Mo Hua was very displeased.
As Master She led the way ahead, a Fireball suddenly streaked past his ear, scorching several locks of hair.
Master She jolted, then turned and glared furiously at Mo Hua.
"Brat, what are you doing?"
Mo Hua snorted coldly and declared, "Something's wrong here!"
Master She's heart skipped a beat, but he asked calmly, "What is wrong?"
Mo Hua looked around, his expression puzzled. He could not explain why, yet he stubbornly insisted, "Something is wrong, anyway!"
Master She's gaze darkened.
