Qin Chen's gaze suddenly became serious.
There was nothing unusual here, and the actions of the two did not seem like they had been poisoned. How could they suddenly fall? Moreover, they had turned into dried corpses.
But Qin Chen knew that these two definitely did not fall for no reason; there must be some cause.
"Yin Hun Beast!" At that moment, a peak late-stage Fifth Level martial artist shouted in terror.
The expressions of the other martial artists also changed dramatically, each one on high alert, quickly drawing their weapons, and they didn't even dare to move, all staring intently at their surroundings.
Even the black slave beside Qin Chen changed his expression, and the Tianmo Banner instantly appeared in his hand, vigilantly watching around.
Clearly, everyone had heard of this Yin Hun Beast and was extremely fearful of it.
"You know about this Yin Hun Beast?" Qin Chen looked at the black slave with confusion.
The black slave said solemnly, "Young Master Chen, the Yin Hun Beast is a type of blood beast unique to this Black Death Swamp. Some say it is formed from the fusion of the miasma and blood beasts in the Black Death Swamp, while others say it is transformed from the vengeful souls of martial artists who died in this swamp. They can absorb a person's essence blood, turning martial artists into dried corpses, and their most terrifying characteristic is that they are shadowless and traceless, undetectable by the naked eye or spiritual sense."
Having said this, the black slave had already activated the Tianmo Banner, enveloping them in a wave of black mist, clearly to guard against attacks from the void.
After doing all this, the gravity on the black slave's face slightly eased, but he still warned, "It is said that these Yin Hun Beasts are extremely troublesome. Even Sixth Level Martial Venerables can hardly sense them. Ordinary people who encounter them can only wait to die. In this Black Death Swamp, the Yin Hun Beast is one of the most terrifying threats, even more so than the miasma."
"Because no one can sense their presence, when encountering them, they don't even know how to resist."
Not everyone on the scene had been to the Black Death Swamp before; some were here for the first time and had never heard of the Yin Hun Beast, looking at each other in dismay. If there was such a terrifying ghostly creature in the Black Death Swamp, who would still look for treasures?
Qin Chen also had such doubts. If the Yin Hun Beast was so terrifying, then who would dare to come in? Even Sixth Level Martial Venerables wouldn’t dare, right?
As if sensing Qin Chen's doubts, the black slave frowned and said, "Actually, the number of Yin Hun Beasts in the Black Death Swamp is not very high, and they usually only appear in extremely deep areas. Although we have already ventured thousands of miles into the Black Death Swamp, this should only be the outer area for the entire swamp. It was unlikely for Yin Hun Beasts to appear here before. I don't know what the reason is this time for a Yin Hun Beast to appear!"
"What should we do? Has the Yin Hun Beast already left?" a martial artist asked in fear.
"It’s possible. You can try moving a bit. The Yin Hun Beast absorbed the essence blood of those two before; perhaps it is already full and has left," one martial artist said, his eyes flickering.
"Then why don’t you try?" This martial artist clearly was not foolish and retorted.
"Alright, everyone stop arguing. I’ve heard that although the Yin Hun Beast is extremely terrifying, it can be killed; it is simply shadowless and traceless, making it hard to find its tracks. Moreover, the Yin Hun Beast often likes to ambush. As long as we gather together, the Yin Hun Beast may not dare to act," a peak late-stage Fifth Level Martial Venerable said in a deep voice.
After he spoke, many people immediately looked towards Qin Chen and the black slave.
Previously, they hadn’t dared to team up with Qin Chen, but when faced with danger, they thought of him. Because of the events at the Black Swamp Square, everyone knew that the strength of the cloaked figure next to this young man was extremely terrifying, and that black banner was clearly a very powerful true treasure, emitting mist capable of completely enveloping a person.
