If people from other sects participating in the Battle for Supremacy knew that Baili Hongzhuang and the others had reached the marshes in just over ten days, they would surely find it unbelievable.
In their view, the teams that had taken this path in previous years couldn't even pass the first obstacle. Once they entered the Magic Mist Forest, they could only wait for the Battle for Supremacy to end before someone came to rescue them.
Baili Hongzhuang and the others were currently dissatisfied with their progress. They believed that those who had failed in this place in previous years would want to teach them a lesson.
If this speed was considered slow, then what were they?
Were they being tortured to death?
However, Baili Hongzhuang and the others were completely unaware of this.
Baili Hongzhuang even felt that she had underestimated the participants in the Battle for Supremacy. The journey had been so difficult, yet the other party had managed to reach the center of the Battle for Supremacy early, which showed their strength.
With her ink-black phoenix eyes, Baili Hongzhuang surveyed the vast marshes, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
In her opinion, the marshes were not an insurmountable problem.
However, she had a feeling that things were not so peaceful beneath the marshes.
"Master, there are turbulent undercurrents beneath the marshes, indicating the presence of demonic beasts."
The White Lion's timely reminder rang in Baili Hongzhuang's ears. It was most sensitive to the existence of demonic beasts.
Even though the fluctuations were very subtle, it could still detect them.
Hearing this, a glimmer of understanding flashed in Baili Hongzhuang's eyes. "It seems that the reason for all this is right here."
The crowd looked at Baili Hongzhuang in confusion, not understanding the meaning behind her sudden and inexplicable statement.
"We didn't encounter any demonic beasts while advancing earlier. I deduce that there must be formidable demonic beasts lurking beneath this marsh."
The expressions of the crowd gradually changed as they looked at the seemingly calm marshes that showed no signs of life.
They were all intelligent people and knew that the marshes were definitely not just meant to deal with them. There must be other tests as well.
"Young Master, it's getting late now. We should rest in the vicinity and wait for dawn before taking action. What do you think?" Long Xuanjing's face was solemn and wise. The tests here were not simple, and if they acted rashly, they could suffer heavy losses.
"I think the same." Baili Hongzhuang nodded. The marshes were already a pitch-black expanse of mud. If they moved at night, they would be no different from blind people, while the demonic beasts would be unaffected.
The crowd retreated a distance and found a suitable place to rest.
After a day of deciphering the formation and ambushing the disciples of the Hengshan Sect, everyone was extremely exhausted.
Baili Hongzhuang assigned the task of keeping watch to three spirit beasts and began practicing her cultivation technique. Tomorrow, they might face a fierce battle, and she needed to adjust her state to its peak.
Not only Baili Hongzhuang but also the other disciples realized that the upcoming challenge would not be easy. Everyone focused on recuperating and restoring themselves to their peak condition.
...
Di Beichen looked at the gradually descending nightfall, his slender and handsome eyes slightly narrowed, filled with a mixture of worry and longing.
They had been in the Battle for Supremacy for quite some time, but so far, he hadn't received any news about Hongzhuang. He couldn't help but feel worried.
