I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 370

“Break!”

In the miasma, Yin Jianghong suddenly pushed out a palm, and dark red Celestial Chi blasted out like waves.

Under the violent impact, although the extremely dense miasma was blown away a little, it quickly returned to its original state.

“This miasma is indeed very evil.” Yin Jianghong let out a long breath and retracted her palm force.

“This miasma is probably augmented by a rather advanced formation.”Jiang Beiran, who was standing beside Yin Jianghong, said in a deep voice.

!!
“How do you know?” Yin Jianghong turned around and asked.

“This miasma gathers but does not disperse. Even your palm force is unable to disperse it. This is not something that can be done just by having a high concentration.”

“Indeed. What kind of formation do you think is causing trouble?”

Jiang Beiran pondered for a moment before answering,””The person who set up the formation is very brilliant. Before coming into contact with the formation eye, I can’t deduce what kind of formation this place is.”

“If you find the formation core, can you destroy this formation?”Without waiting for Jiang Beiran to reply, she shook her head and said,””Forget it, let’s not talk nonsense. Let’s start looking for these.”

Yin Jianghong grabbed Jiang Beiran’s shoulder.” If we move too fast, will it hinder you from finding the relic?”

“I won’t.”

“Very good, you’re confident.” Yin Jianghong curled her lips and flew toward the southwest like lightning.

The miasma had spread twice and now covered almost six counties. The area was not small. Even with the ability of Yinjiang Red Mystic Sect, it was impossible to find it in a short time.

‘Who exactly is the person who set up this array…’

Jiang Beiran, who had been dragged hundreds of miles away by Yin Jianghong, couldn’t help but frown.

First of all, he hadn’t sensed any formations in operation. The reason why he was sure that there was a formation here was entirely because the miasma was too powerful.

This was the first time Jiang Beiran had encountered someone who could conceal the formation to such an extent.

After flying over another peak, Yin Jianghong turned around and said to Jiang Beiran,””This miasma is something that even this venerable self’s spiritual sense cannot easily penetrate. If it were those at the Xuan Ling realm…”

“Boom!”

Yin Jianghong was halfway through her sentence when a purple shockwave suddenly blasted over and hit Yin Jianghong, who was flying at high speed.

The huge impact blasted the two of them apart. Yin Jianghong reached out to grab Jiang Beiran, but a figure followed closely behind the shockwave and threw a punch at Yin Jianghong.

The power of this punch was so great that even someone as strong as Yin Jianghong had to use all her strength to deal with it.

“Mystic Sect?”

With a loud bang, Jiang Beiran crashed heavily onto the ground. He couldn’t help but shout,””Cult Master Yin!”

This roar of ” Intense Fire ” was heart-wrenching and filled with extreme panic.

Jiang Beiran was truly afraid! Of course, he wasn’t afraid of the miasma. He was just afraid of how he would explain to others if he could get out of here alive after being separated from Yin Jianghong!?

However, Jiang Beiran only heard a series of rumbling sounds in the air.

‘Those who can fight with Old Man Yin will fight back!?There really is a mighty figure in this miasma.

Jiang Beiran had originally been hoping that the miasma was so strong because of the superior formation and the King Venomous Worm.

But now, the answer had been revealed. The reason why the miasma was so powerful was because the person who created it was a mysterious sect level expert!

“What a scam!”

Jiang Beiran crawled out of the hole he had created and waited for Yin Jianghong to come to his aid. However, Yin Jianghong did not appear even after the dark red Body-protection Celestial Chi around him had completely dissipated.

‘Damn it…Is this forcing me to show my talent?

Without Yin Jianghong’s mystical Qi, Jiang Beiran would not have been able to survive a second in such a miasma with his cultivation base.

Just as Jiang Beiran was analyzing what kind of ” talent ” he had to reveal to show that he wasn’t dead yet, four options suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Option 1: Stay where you are and wait for help. [Completion Reward: True Manual of Ten Absolutes (Earth Grade Mid-Rank)]

[Option 2: Go southeast. [Completion Reward: Big Dipper Record (Earth Grade Low-Rank)]

[Option 3: Go northwest. [Completion Reward: Purple Lotus Xuan Axis (Xuan Grade High Rank)]

[Option 4: Walk southeast. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

‘Several groups… Danger lurks everywhere.

This was the first time since the Masked Moon Sect incident that Jiang Beiran had encountered a situation where choosing a direction would trigger an option. It was enough to show how dangerous the miasma was.

“I’ve underestimated this miasma…”

Jiang Beiran had thought that the battle would be foolproof since even the Xuanzong Faction had joined the battle, but he had not expected the miasma to be so dangerous.

After choosing the fourth option, Jiang Beiran put on his clothes and turned to head southeast.
[Mission completed. Reward: Spirit +1]

Having lost Yin Jianghong’s body fortification technique that could block out the miasma, Jiang Beiran could now clearly sense the composition of the miasma.

Taking a deep breath of the miasma, Jiang Beiran began to analyze the situation with his keen sense of smell.

‘It’s not just Gu…Black-horned Dragon, Yama Poison, Jade Poison Dew…This miasma was refined from hundreds of rare poisonous herbs. No wonder it was so poisonous. But what was the effect of these poisons combined?’
