Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank - Chapter 929
929 Strange Poisonous Fog
The butterflies were extremely large. The smallest ones were the size of a washbasin, while the larger ones had wingspans of more than three meters. They danced in the air, interweaving into a large stream of light. Under the sunlight, they resembled a rainbow bridge.
“These are Seven-colored Neon Butterflies, also known as Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies. They are the most magnificent creatures on earth and among the most beautiful of their species.”
Others may not have known, but Li Xiang was already aware of the origins of these butterflies through his probing skill.
They were the king of butterflies – the Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterfly.
These butterflies naturally radiated seven colors, rendering them dazzling and splendid. A veil of chromatic halo illuminated them like a misty cloud, and from a distance, they looked like a rainbow of light.
!!
People unintentionally likened them to rainbows.
Although the Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterfly was incredibly beautiful, their beauty concealed their extreme danger.
They could secrete a unique powder.
The powder would scatter in the wind and be inhaled with each breath without a trace.
They were the Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies. As their name suggested, these butterflies had the ability to cause hallucinations. Moreover, in the illusion, one would not know what had happened at all. One would be affected unconsciously if one had weak willpower.
These Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies did not approach the Divine City. Instead, they flew towards the edge of the city, arcing the void like a gorgeous rainbow. It was truly breathtaking.
“Fortunately, they did not approach the Divine City. The soldiers of the Vermillion Bird Army might have been able to resist, but within the city, more than ninety percent of the people would have fallen into illusions. It could even lead to bloodshed.”
Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that these Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies did not approach the Divine City. After all, it was better to stay away from such beautiful and dangerous creatures. It was definitely not a good thing.
Needless to say, safety was the most important thing.
“It was strange. These Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies didn’t approach the Divine City. This means that they weren’t startled by the Divine City’s migration, but came from far away. They were migrating. Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies like warm environments. Generally, they can thrive anywhere except for icy areas. It’s not winter now, so why did they suddenly move?”
Li Xiang furrowed his brows, and a hint of confusion crossed his face.
The migration of the Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies was obviously rushed, but their destination was clear. They were heading south in search of a better habitat.
“Keep moving forward!”
Zhao Yun also breathed a sigh of relief after witnessing the Seven Illusion Rainbow Butterflies fly into the distance. After all, he did not want to hastily confront such peculiar creatures without knowing the details.
It was better not to fight if they could avoid it.
The Divine City continued to press forward, but everyone remained vigilant. They knew that the foreign race would not give up so easily. They were bound to take further action, but it remained unknown what exactly they would do.
They advanced for hundreds of miles.
A colorful fog appeared in front of them. This fog was extremely sticky and striking under the sunlight. Even the civilians in the city could see it at a glance. Not only was it eye-catching, but it was also incredibly massive.
It was unclear where this fog came from.
However, the most terrifying thing was that within the area covered by the fog, the flowers and grass on the ground withered instantly. It was as if all vitality had been plundered in a split second. The ground was an abyss of pitch-black, devoid of any vitality. The mere sight of it was enough to make one shudder.
“Poison, this is poisonous fog,” Zhao Yun’s face tightened as he spoke. The fog was highly lethal.
Howl!
A ferocious bird flew through the air and let out a mournful cry as it approached the toxic fog, plummeting to the ground. The silence that followed indicated that it had died on the spot.
To be able to kill a ferocious bird, this poison was undoubtedly fatal.
“The foreign race has set up a third obstacle for us. The crack in the ground couldn’t stop us, nor could the swarm of bees harm us. This time, they used a strong poison. It’s utterly ruthless. After the poison dissipates, this area will not have any vitality for a hundred years,” Zhou Qing said with a serious expression.
“What should we do now? Even if we stay still, the poisonous fog will continue to move toward us. It won’t be long before it covers this entire area,” asked the deputy general.
The poison was indeed quite difficult to deal with.
“This is not a rain of poison, only a fog of poison. We just need to blow it away with the wind. Use the Gale Talisman to blow away the poisonous fog.”
Zhou Qing said after a moment of contemplation.
The Gale Talisman could potentially blow away the fog. However, they were facing a poisonous fog of a large scale, a violent wind triggered by a single Gale Talisman would not be able to shift it. It would take a hurricane generated by thousands of Gale Talismans to blast the fog away.
“All troops, use the Gale Talisman to attack the poison fog!”
Zhao Yun nodded in agreement. It was worth a shot.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
All the soldiers took out their Gale Talismans and launched them toward the poisonous fog. Gusts of wind rose from the ground and pushed towards the fog like a real hurricane, lifting the leaves and even uprooting some trees.
Not only could ordinary people be swept away by the violence of the hurricane, but even skilled cultivators were at risk of being carried away by its force.
The hurricane rushed into the poisonous fog. In theory, even the largest amount of fog would be blown away by such a hurricane and dispersed on the spot.
However, the hurricane simply passed through the poisonous fog as if it were nothing more than a mirage, and the fog continued to creep toward the Divine City.
“I can’t believe the hurricane couldn’t even blow away this poisonous fog. What is this?”
A look of disbelief washed over Zhou Qing’s face.
They did not expect there to be a poisonous fog that was impervious to the force of a hurricane. This was going to be a serious problem.
“How could this be? This is clearly a fog. How can it not be blown away or dispersed by the wind? Is this really a poisonous fog?”
“Something is not right. The power generated by two hundred thousand Gale Talismans would intimidate even the powerhouses of the mythical realm or divine law realm. How could it not even budge this poisonous fog in front of us? It’s too strange!”
“This is a poisonous fog created by the foreign race. It must be extraordinary, otherwise, they could have created a poisonous rain, which cannot be avoided and is even more terrifying. There must be a reason for the poisonous fog to appear. Even the hurricane cannot blow it away. It has strong toxicity and covers a vast area. I wonder how this fog was formed.”
