Arrival at the Fengdu Poison Sea

Song Wen's mind raced, trying to figure out how to let the matter drop, since it wasn't the right time to break ties with Jiang Wanyue.

Should they fabricate a seemingly plausible explanation? Or should they try to distract Jiang Wanyue?

However, before Song Wen could speak, Jiang Wanyue added.

"I don't care who you associate with. But you broke your promise to me, and you have to make amends. Since you've been with Bai Jinge for over twenty years, I'll do the same for you. You can't favor one over the other!"

Jiang Wanyue immediately summoned a spaceship, grabbed Song Wen by the collar, and flew towards the Ship Pavilion.

The two entered the Ship Pavilion, the door was tightly closed, and the array was activated, so there was no sound from outside.

The spaceship didn't stop there; instead, it soared through the air and headed south.

Three months later.

The spaceship finally came to a stop.

Jiang Wanyue was the first to emerge from the Ship Pavilion, her face rosy and exuding a languid and languid air.

Song Wen then walked out, but his eyes were dark and bluish, as if all his vital energy had been drained away, leaving no trace.

The two stood at the bow of the boat, gazing into the distance.

Ahead, the sky and earth were a lush green expanse, filled with a dark green mist.

The dark green mist surged endlessly, yet remained condensed and unyielding, completely shrouding the earth and obscuring any view within.

This place is the Fengdu Dead Sea.

Song Wen mobilized his Divine Sense to probe into the poisonous miasma.

However, before the Divine Sense had penetrated even a hundred miles, the concentration of miasma suddenly increased, severely distorting the Divine Sense and making it difficult to penetrate further.

However, Song Wen also gained some insight into the interior of the Dead Sea through this.

Because the miasma is extremely toxic, ordinary creatures can hardly survive. Fengdu Poison Sea is lifeless, but it is not entirely devoid of life.

At least Song Wen spotted a few scattered poisonous insects, some biting through rocks and burrowing deep underground, others flashing through the air.

With a fleeting glance, Song Wen roughly judged that these poisonous insects were all above the seventh rank, but he had not yet discovered any poisonous insects above the Immortal Realm.

This glimpse into the dangers of the Fengdu Poison Sea reveals the perilous nature of the area; even in its outermost perimeter, numerous high-level poisonous insects lurk, and in its depths, who knows what other terrifying creatures might be lurking.

However, based on previous information, the Fengdu Poison Sea is different from ordinary forbidden areas. It is not that the deeper you go, the denser the poisonous miasma becomes. Instead, the poisonous miasma is distributed randomly. This area may be so dense that it can kill Profound Immortal Yuxiao, while Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator may be able to move freely nearby.

Furthermore, the concentration of miasma at the same location is not constant, but fluctuates with the time of day.

Jiang Wanyue took off from the spaceship and sped towards the Fengdu Poison Sea.

She stopped at the very edge.

The Fengdu Poison Sea has a very clear dividing line: one step forward is a heavy, dark green poisonous miasma, and one step back is a clear, open world. There is no buffer zone between the two.

Jiang Wanyue stretched out her slender, white hand, her fingertips probing into the poisonous miasma.

Instantly, her fingertips visibly turned black, and the blackening spread up her fingers toward her palm.

Jiang Wanyue frowned slightly, her Immortal Essence surging within her body, and a shimmering white spiritual light emanated from her hands.

The blackness on her fingers quickly dissipated, instantly returning to its original pale white color; surrounded by a shimmering white aura, preventing the miasma from further eroding her fingertips.

"The miasma here is extremely poisonous, enough to threaten even cultivators of the Lingxu Dao Immortal Realm. However, protective spiritual light can dispel the poisonous miasma, but it requires consuming one's own Immortal Essence," Jiang Wanyue said to Song Wen, who had already come to her side.

Song Wen also plunged his hand deep into the miasma.

However, his hands were surrounded by a withered, yellowish aura.

"Huh!" Jiang Wanyue exclaimed in surprise, "What kind of profound energy is this? The miasma has no effect on it at all, and can't even erase it in the slightest!"

Song Wen said, "This aura comes from cultivation Cultivation Method and is remarkably effective in resisting highly poisonous substances. However, if the miasma here were any stronger, it wouldn't be able to remain completely unharmed."

"That's already quite good," Jiang Wanyue said. "This way, we'll have another way to protect ourselves after entering the Fengdu Poison Sea."

Song Wen nodded slightly, acknowledging Jiang Wanyue's statement.

Jiang Wanyue continued, "We arrived ahead of schedule, and there's less than a year left before the miasma weakens. What are your plans for this time?"

Song Wen said, "According to the intelligence I've received, the southern part of the Fengdu Poison Sea has merged with the Source-Qi Death Domain that has spread from the High-Heaven Immortal Domain. I want to go and take a look."

Jiang Wanyue said, "Then let's go."

The two boarded the boat again and continued their journey around the edge of the Fengdu Poison Sea.

"Gu Huang, the Fengdu Poison Sea is vast. Even for us Lingxu Dao Immortal, it would take quite some time to detour to the other side. Rather than idly waiting on this deck, why don't we go to our cabins in the Ship Pavilion to rest for a while?"

As Jiang Wanyue spoke, she took Song Wen's arm.

No, thank you.

Song Wen refused without hesitation, pulled his hand away, and said again.

"This is also a good opportunity to observe the Fengdu Poison Sea up close. Our understanding of the Fengdu Poison Sea comes from intelligence, but it's never as good as seeing it with our own eyes."

Jiang Wanyue pouted, "Fine, I won't go. But the excuse I came up with was certainly plausible."

Song Wen seemed not to hear Jiang Wanyue's complaint, and stopped talking, his eyes fixed on the direction of the poisonous sea.

As the spaceship circled around, the miasma at the edge of the Poison Sea gradually became more and more concentrated—from the dark green that Song Wen and his companion had initially seen, it turned into a deep black.

However, upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to see that the miasma is still green; it is just too concentrated, causing the miasma to pile up and compress in layers, making it appear as thick as a black curtain from a distance.

At this point, Song Wen was convinced that even the Five Decays Yellow Springs Qi could not withstand such a dense miasma.

Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Wanyue lost her previous flirtatious thoughts and murmured something.

"With such miasma, even Profound Immortal Yuxiao wouldn't dare to venture in. Otherwise, he might not survive."

The spaceship continued its journey.

However, after traveling less than ten thousand miles, the concentration of miasma suddenly dropped sharply, changing from a deep black color to a light green. Furthermore, as the spaceship moved forward, the miasma became increasingly thin, until finally only a faint green mist could be seen drifting in the air.

"This..."

Jiang Wanyue spoke again.

"The miasma here is probably no threat even to a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage."

"The changes in the miasma within the Fengdu Poison Sea are truly incomprehensible," Song Wen Wenying replied.
