Volume 1 Chapter 292 Mysterious Swamp
"What's going on?" Gu Xiao was shocked, and immediately moved towards the edge of the swamp, hid in the grass, and stuck his head out to look out.
I saw the swamp rolling and boiling, setting off huge waves, and the huge monster was also roaring and roaring, the sound was deafening.
Then you can see a black shadow flying out from the depths of the swamp, rushing out of the swamp in the blink of an eye and disappearing into the vast night.
"Damn it! What is that thing? Is it too fast? I can't keep up at all!" Gu Xiao's eyes widened and he stared dumbly at the black figure disappearing in the night sky.
With just one afterimage, his speed is more than hundreds of times faster than Gu Xiao's, and his strength is probably far beyond his level, at least it is innate strength!
"Damn!" Gu Xiao cursed secretly, sat down on the ground, and said breathlessly: "Damn, I'm exhausted!"
"This damn Chaos Dzi Bead, if I had known about it, I wouldn't have snatched it." Gu Xiao cursed angrily, then touched his stomach and muttered: "I'm starving, hurry up and find something to eat."
After coming all the way, Gu Xiao was already hungry.
However, when Gu Xiao turned around to look for food, he suddenly found that the surrounding environment had changed dramatically. Where was the forest? It had completely turned into a dark swamp, without any grass growing.
"Hiss...where is this?" Gu Xiao was startled. He hurriedly took out his communication ring, but found that there was no signal here.
"Damn it, why did I end up in the swamp!" Gu Xiao growled in panic.
When Gu Xiao was surprised, an ethereal figure slowly condensed into shape.
He was shrouded in black robes and his appearance could not be seen.
"It seemed like someone called me just now?" The disembodied voice was filled with a hint of surprise.
"It's me, my name is Gu Xiao! Who are you? Why do you appear here? Why aren't you wearing clothes?" Gu Xiao pointed at the other person and asked, full of doubts in his heart, not understanding why he suddenly appeared.
"Is your real name Gu Xiao?" the man in black robe confirmed again, with a touch of excitement and expectation in his tone.
"Nonsense! Who are you? Why are you pretending to be a ghost?" Gu Xiao curled his lips and was too lazy to talk to him. He only cared about the Chaos Dzi Bead.
"Haha." The man in black robe smiled slightly, gently touched the black simple box in his hand, and said: "This is the Chaos Dzi Bead. It is very powerful and can swallow everything, including all kinds of energy. If you want to get it,
A price must be paid.”
"What exactly do you want to say?" Gu Xiao asked with a frown.
The man in black robe threw the box to Gu Xiao and said: "You only need to shed your blood to recognize the owner. Even if you succeed in gaining its recognition, your fate has been determined. Otherwise, you will never be able to get rid of this treasure."
"Destiny?" Hearing this, Gu Xiao snorted coldly: "My fate is up to me. I don't care what the future holds. I just want to live now!"
Having said that, Gu Xiao did not hesitate to shed blood to admit his master, and in an instant, the Chaos Dzi Bead burst out with a dazzling light.
At the same time, a strange memory came into my mind.
This memory was very huge, as vast as the vast ocean, which gave Gu Xiao a splitting headache and passed out.
...
"Bang!"
Gu Xiao's consciousness regained consciousness, but his consciousness was still in a state of confusion.
Opening his eyes, the first thing Gu Xiao saw was a magnificent palace. The palace was splendid and magnificent, with exquisite and complicated patterns carved on the redwood beams, gorgeous and solemn.
"Where am I? This palace is so luxurious, it should be the palace of the royal family." Gu Xiao looked at it for a moment and finally made a judgment.
"Why did I suddenly appear in the palace? Is this all a dream? But why does it feel so real to me?"
The more Gu Xiao thought about it, the more confused he became. He even doubted whether the world he was in now really existed, or maybe it was some kind of illusion.
However, Gu Xiao soon discovered that this was not an illusion.
Gu Xiao found that his body seemed to be still sealed, and the vitality in his body was still unable to move.
"Am I still unable to escape my fate? No, I won't accept it." Gu Xiao gritted his teeth, his face was pale, and his eyes were flashing with madness and determination.
"Since you can't escape, face it bravely, it's better than waiting to die!" Gu Xiao secretly warned himself, then took a deep breath and adjusted himself.
"Boom!"
At this moment, deep in the swamp, a roar of ferocious beasts suddenly sounded.
"Ouch——!"
The next moment, a ferocious-looking giant python that was more than three meters long opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards Gu Xiao.
Without saying a word, Gu Xiao used the wind control technique to escape. Although the speed was very fast, the speed of the giant python was even more terrifying. In the blink of an eye, it caught up with Gu Xiao and swallowed him up.
"Ah! Help! Help!"
Gu Xiao screamed repeatedly and struggled desperately, but he still couldn't get rid of it.
A few minutes later, Gu Xiao was already dying, covered in blood and dying.
After the giant python swallowed Gu Xiao, it went straight to the depths of the swamp and swam, and finally disappeared under the swamp.
"Holy shit!" Seeing this scene, Gu Xiao almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He thought he was going to die, but he was actually swallowed by a snake.
"It's a good thing I didn't give him the Chaos Dzi Bead, otherwise I would have died unjustly." Gu Xiao patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Xiao carefully checked his body and found that his body was not injured, but his soul was severely damaged.
"It's strange. Was everything I just did a dream?" Gu Xiao scratched his head, his heart full of doubts. He vaguely remembered that he met a strange man on a mountain peak and was taken away by that man.
Gu Xiao searched his memory carefully, but couldn't remember anything. He recalled it twice and found no clues.
"Sigh~ It seems that I can only wait until I succeed in my cultivation before going to him to ask for details." Gu Xiao sighed bitterly, and he was too lazy to dwell on it anymore.
Gu Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, took out the Chaos Dzi Bead, and quietly observed it.
The Chaos Dzi Bead releases a dazzling purple light, illuminating the entire room. It is so dazzling that one cannot help but close one's eyes.
Gu Xiao stared at the Chaos Dzi Bead in the palm of his hand. As soon as he thought about it, he felt a powerful energy flow from the Chaos Dzi Bead into his limbs and bones.
The Chaos Dzi Beads contain the extremely domineering energy of chaos, which is the source of everything in the universe. It is extremely powerful and can be called heaven-defying!
Gu Xiao tried to guide the chaotic energy into the Dantian, causing it to wander in the meridians.
However, Gu Xiao sadly discovered that he could not control the energy of chaos at all, which made him feel powerless and frustrated.
"Nah! The Chaos Dzi Bead has its own will and doesn't obey my call at all. It's such a scam!" Gu Xiao couldn't help but yelled.
