Charging Straight into the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest

Inside the secret room of Exchange Tower, the lighting was dim.

Ren stood in front of the stone table, gazing silently at the flickering thunderous sound mark on the core array plate.

The mark's light flickered, then dimmed, and was about to go out completely in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Chen stood to the side, his forehead covered in cold sweat, his face full of anxiety.

"OP, the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest is definitely not a safe place!"

Zhao Chen pointed to the blood-red mark on the map, his voice trembling.

That forbidden zone of life is perpetually shrouded in the Immortal-Corroding Bone-Devouring Miasma.

"Since ancient times, any cultivator who has stepped into it has never returned!"

"That poisonous miasma is extremely domineering, specifically targeting the physical body and the Divine Soul."

"Let alone a high-level Soul Sage, even Quasi-Transcendent expert who rashly steps in will find it difficult to escape the calamity of having their bones turned to dust!"

Lu Ping stood to the side, his face pale upon hearing this, his hands gripping the hem of his clothes tightly.

Kaguya Otsutsuki on the other side of the array plate, her long, snow-white hair falling slightly.

Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, the veins at the corners of her eyes bulged slightly, and her pure white eyes subtly shifted.

The primordial eye power that could see through the void instantly enveloped the map Projection in mid-air.

Following the faint trajectory of the thunderous sound mark, her gaze pierced through layers of void barriers.

A moment later, Kaguya slowly withdrew her gaze, her cool voice echoing in the secret room.

"Deepest within the poisonous forest lies a chaotic spatial fault."

"That wasn't a naturally formed forbidden zone, but rather a spatial distortion emanating from the ruins of ancient gods."

"The ruins are gradually becoming visible as the underground veins erupt."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Chen and Lu Ping both gasped.

It truly is a relic of ancient gods!

In the shadows of the corner, Madara Uchiha crossed his arms and let out a cold sneer.

"Hmph, making it sound so scary."

Ban raised his chin.

"A mere human plague, not worth mentioning."

"As long as I unleash my Susanoo, I'll be no match for the Immortal-Corroding Bone-Devouring Miasma; I'll just sweep through them all!"

In his view, there was no impassable terrain that Susanoo not cleave.

Upon hearing Obito Uchiha nearby, immediately shook his head and retorted in a deep voice.

"It's not as simple as you think."

Obito pointed to his right eye, his expression grave.

"The spatial barriers of the Profound Desolate World are inherently sturdy, and in those perilous places where spatial faults intersect, they are extremely difficult to tear."

"Once trapped deep in the poisonous forest, even Kamui might not be able to lead everyone to safety in time. We must not recklessly force our way in."

Ban raised an eyebrow, about to speak, when Ren had already raised his hand.

The argument inside the sealed room abruptly ceased.

Everyone turned to look at Ren.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ren turned around and issued the rescue order.

"Lu Ping, Zhao Chen."

"This old servant is here!"

The two quickly bowed and obeyed the order.

"The two of you will remain in Chaotic Star City, fully responsible for overseeing the Exchange Tower headquarters and maintaining daily trade operations."

Immediately afterwards, Ren looked at Fugaku Uchiha was standing to the side.

"Fugaku, you will lead fifty Profound Wilderness Guard Army to defend the newly constructed interdimensional anchor point underground."

"While I am away, I will take strict precautions to prevent the City Lord's Estate and other villains from taking advantage of the situation."

Fugaku, with a solemn expression, immediately placed his hand on his chest and bowed.

"Yes, Clan Leader!"

After arranging the rear defenses, Ren surveyed the group of top experts in the arena.

"I will personally lead this expedition into the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest."

"Madara, Obito, Kaguya, Sasuke, Itachi, Shisui, the six of you will come with me."

Ren's tone was calm, yet it revealed his decisive and swift action.

"Zhong Zizai has kept Exchange Tower's secret for ten years; we absolutely cannot let him die there."

"This time, we'll tear apart the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest and bring the person back unharmed!"

"Yes!"

Sasuke, Itachi, and Shisui responded simultaneously, their eyes gleaming with fighting spirit.

On the eve of their departure, everyone gathered in the backyard to prepare.

Ren flipped his hand and directly retrieved the Void Cloak, his most treasured Void Cloak, from the Temple's treasury.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a purple-gold gourd and several jade bottles.

Inside were a large quantity of top-grade Poison-Warding Pill and Yin-Yang Origin-Restoring Liquid that he had personally refined using the Super System.

Ren distributed the Pill and spiritual liquids to everyone one by one.

"The environment of the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest is harsh. Everyone should take Poison-Warding Pill in advance to ensure that their combat strength is not diminished in the slightest."

Everyone took the Pill and swallowed them; the cooling medicinal power instantly flowed through their limbs and bones.

In the dead of night, all was quiet.

Ren stood in the center of the backyard of Exchange Tower and tossed the Void Cloak into the air.

Buzz--!

A mighty black light shot into the sky from beneath Exchange Tower, illuminating half the night sky in the blink of an eye.

The Void Cloak, billowing in the wind, transformed in the blink of an eye into a black flying carpet ten thousand feet in size.

Ren was the first to leap onto the flying carpet, followed closely by the six powerful figures including Madara and Kaguya.

Boom!

The flying carpet, carrying everyone, pierced through the deep night, transforming into a black streak of light as it hurtled towards the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest, thousands of miles to the southwest.

The wind howled in my ears, and the earth and mountains rushed past beneath my feet.

At dawn, the sky was just beginning to lighten with the first hint of white.

After speeding all night, the Void Cloak finally arrived at the outer edge of the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest.

Standing on the edge of the flying carpet and looking down, even those accustomed to mountains of corpses and seas of blood couldn't help but frown slightly.

All that could be seen ahead was a dense, impenetrable cloud of dark green poisonous clouds pressing down on the entire landscape.

The desolate forests stretch for tens of thousands of miles, devoid of any greenery, with barren, Kurotsuchi everywhere.

The forest clearing was littered with countless skeletons, including the massive skeletons of Desolate Beast and many human remains still in a struggling posture.

The air was filled with an extremely pungent, sour, and putrid stench that made people want to vomit.

At that very moment, in the safe zone on the outskirts of the Poison Forest, several elite mercenary groups from various kingdoms were stationed.

A mercenary captain on lookout duty had just taken a bite of his rations when he casually glanced up at the sky.

Snap!

The dry rations in his hand fell to the ground, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"What... what's that in the sky?!"

The piercing screams instantly alerted all the camps.

Hundreds of mercenaries emerged from their tents and looked up at the sky.

A gigantic black flying carpet descended from the sky with a terrifying whooshing sound!

Without pausing for a moment, the flying carpet headed straight for that dark green sea of poison where death was certain!

All the mercenaries were dumbfounded, their scalps tingling, and gasps of shock echoed throughout the room.

"My God, is that a flying soul tool or some ancient treasure?!"

"They're not slowing down at all; are they going to charge straight into the Myriad Tribulations Poison Forest?!"

"Are you crazy?! That's a ninth-grade Immortal-Corroding Bone-Devouring Miasma! Even a tiny bit of it from Quasi-Transcendent will rot into bone dust!"

"Where on earth did this reclusive old monster come from, daring to trespass into this Asura place!"

Under the horrified gazes of countless mercenaries, the Void Cloak slowly descended to the low sky at the edge of the poisonous forest.

Perhaps it sensed the presence of a stranger.

The thick, poisonous miasma that had been dormant below suddenly began to churn wildly.

The dark green, highly toxic mist continued to compress and condense, instantly transforming into thousands of ferocious, sky-covering, miasma beasts!

Each of the miasma beasts exuded a chilling stench, and its intense corrosiveness could melt even low-level Soul Artifact into molten iron in an instant.

"Roar--!"

Thousands of highly venomous beasts roared in unison, unleashing a storm of blood and carnage as they swarmed towards the people on the flying carpet.

The mercenaries watching from the perimeter turned pale upon seeing this scene.

"It's over! We've triggered a horde of poisonous beasts; these people are doomed!"
