A few miles away from the Dark Marsh, there was a small village where the young White Bone Heavenly Venerate, in order to treat his mother's illness, discussed with a few fellow villagers and decided to venture into the Dark Marsh to pick medicinal herbs.
No one expected that they would never return.
That day, a thick fog arose in the Dark Marsh, so dense that it hardly dispersed, and the group of them got lost within it.
By the time the fog finally lifted, they were completely trapped in the Dark Marsh.
Within, dangers abounded, not to mention the scarcity of food and water; just the deeply hidden marshes and various kinds of poisonous creatures were enough to terrify anyone who heard of them.
The young White Bone Heavenly Venerate and his fellow villagers struggled to survive for seven days in there until they accidentally fell into a swamp.
His companions watched as his body gradually sank into the swamp, believing him to be certainly doomed.
