After the ti it took to boil a cup of tea, the ground had beco much smoother and the miasma was not as thick as before. However, everyone was still very alert. To martial warriors of Golden Core Stage and above, holding their breath for an hour wasn't a problem, so they didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
For so unknown reason, everyone's ears were still as silent as if they could only hear their own footsteps.
Alex subconsciously looked at Eloise, who was beside him. The latter was startled at first, then curiously raised her head and looked him in the eyes.
"What's wrong?" Eloise's impression of Alex was not good because of the previous owner of the body. Her red lips slightly parted as she lightly asked what happened but her voice seed to be filled with coldness.
"Hmm?" Alex was shocked. He was not shocked because Eloise spoke to him but because she dared to speak in the miasma. Furthermore, her chest was moving up and down, obviously, she was not holding her breath like the others.
Eloise then reacted and made a gesture for Alex to keep quiet, "Shh!"
Alex was even more surprised. He used his eyes to ask the other party, "You're not afraid of the miasma?"
At first, Eloise didn't want to talk to Alex, but he has already seen her strangeness so she shook her head and replied softly, "I will tell you the answer in the future."
Alex nodded his head and thought that the other party must have a secret that caused her to breathe in the miasma.
Suddenly, everyone's vision beca clear and their hearing returned. The smoke from the miasma had vanished and was replaced by grass and red flowers that filled the mountains.
"Phuu!" A long breath echoed in the air as everyone greedily took breaths in the fresh air.
"Everyone, don't let down your guard." Ivaan reminded everyone softly at this ti.
Everyone recovered and looked around. At this mont, they were all halfway up a mountain. The surroundings were unusually beautiful as they danced like bees and butterflies. A hundred flowers were competing with each other, and the gentle breeze carried the faint fragrance of flowers.
"What a beautiful place!" Ezra Ivy said.
"Wait." At this ti, Alex frowned as though he had suddenly discovered sothing and his face was filled with suspicions as he looked around.
"What?" Everyone's eyes turned to look at him.
Raymond Smith asked, "Alex, what did you find?"
Alex's frowned his brows as he revealed a serious expression and said, "Where did the people walking in front of us go? They were clearly walking in front of us just a mont ago."
When those words were spoken, everyone imdiately felt that sothing was wrong.
"That's right, this place is halfway up the mountain. It doesn't look like the entrance of the Earth King's Ancient Land." Ivaan squinted his eyes as though he was deep in thought and said.
"How can this be? Where are the people ahead of us?"
"We don't seem to have walked uphill before. We were clearly walking normally as if we were walking on the ground"
"Could these be illusions?"
While speaking, Hugo Finn walked in front of a flower and tentatively picked it up. He held it in his hand and looked at it left and right.
"This is real. It's not fake."
Everyone's hearts were filled with doubt. To them, the mysteriousness of the Earth King's Ancient Land was overshadowed by another layer of the veil at this mont.
With these questions in mind, everyone fell into a short pause. However, at this ti, a few people suddenly appeared in front of them as if they were ghosts. These people were none other than the group of Hundred Poison Sect led by Old Man Song and Aaban. They looked around them with surprised gazes, as if they couldn't believe how they appeared in this place.
They were not alone. They seem to have tead up with a group of disciples from another top power called the Heavenly Gate.
"What happened? We had clearly walked out of miasma and in front of us was a big river. How did the scene change and we appeared here?"
As one of them said this, their gazes fell on the people of Mystical Peak and they revealed ferocious expressions. However, they didn't do anything rushed as this was not the ti. They have to first figure out what was happening.
Ivaan wanted to co-operate with them, for they might encounter so danger here that could be proved extrely difficult to deal with. So, he went forward and told them the situation here and asked for cooperation, only to be rejected by them coldly.
Ivaan didn't say anything and returned to his group without expressing anything. If they doesn't want to cooperate with him, there was nothing he could do.
"Junior brother Aayan, what do you think about this matter?" At this ti, Aaban asked one of the disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect.
As the eldest young master of the Heavenly Gate, Aayan Ahd had the strength at the third level of the Spirit Origin Stage. He could be considered a young genius with quite a bit of fa in Heavenly Gate and the Cities in the surroundings. However, his personality was rather humble and his conduct of affairs was sowhat similar to his father's, Akram Ahd who was famous for his kindness, honesty, and loyalty.
Aayan shook his head as his eyes revealed his confusion, "Normally, I rarely leave the Heavenly Gate and this is my first ti coming to the Earth King's Ancient Land so my knowledge is very limited."
The few of them could not help but frown. They had obviously co from the entrance of the Earth King's Ancient Land and were walking on a plane ground in the miasma, but in less than a few seconds after the miasma disappeared, everyone had mysteriously appeared halfway up the mountain. Furthermore, according to Ivaan of the Mystical Peak, the people who were walking in front had all disappeared without a trace. The situation was undoubtedly very grim.
After thinking for a while, Aayan again said, "In my opinion, teaming up with the group of Mystical Peak will be a good decision in this situation where everything is unknown."
After so talk, Aaban also decided to put away the hostility between the two forces and join hands. So, this ti, even though he was extrely unwilling, he still went to Ivaan and said after so consideration, they decided to join hands for the ti being.
A snort appeared on Ivaan face and he wanted to reject imdiately but after thinking for a few seconds, he sighed and agreed with Aaban.
After the three teams beco one, this allowed everyone to feel slightly more at ease. At the sa ti, Eloise who was in the midst of communicating with Ezra suddenly spoke out softly, "I've thought of a possibility."
In a split second, more than fifty pairs of eyes swept over in unison, especially from the n. A ray of light suddenly lit up in front of them.
"Oh? What do you think, Miss Eloise?" A person from the Hundred Poison Sect imdiately walked over with an elegant deanor and an enchanting smile and asked.
Eloise replied indifferently, "It's very likely that there's a teleportation circle set up at the end of the miasma, teleporting every team to a different location. Among the dozens of forces who entered the Earth King's Ancient Land, we three were teleported here the mont we step into the formation. We were all inside the miasma at that ti so we didn't feel anything. This can also explain how the people walking in front of us have suddenly disappeared.
The crowd could not help but burst into a soft hubbub of discussion. Alex nodded his head secretly and agreed with Eloise's words as this is the only explanation for the current situation.
Old Man Song, who was not far away, snorted lightly and replied in disdain, "I thought it was so sort of astonishing explanation. So it's just a guess of soone's conceit."
Regarding Old Man Song's sarcasm, Eloise did not seem to care. But Kim Min-Oh and Hugo couldn't help but fight back, "What do you an? If you have the ability, why don't you think and give an explanation for the current situation!"
"That's right. His brain is not working well and he still wants to mock others. Are you sure you are an outdoor elder of the Hundred Poison Sect? You are just a stupid old man."
"You?" Old Man Song was so angry that his old face turned red. He looked at the two of them in anger and shouted: "Who are you calling stupid?"
"Are you not convinced? If you are not convinced, then fight with ." Hugo rolled up his sleeves and provoked the old man. From Ivaan, he had already heard what happened with Alex. Although their impression of Alex was not good, instead it was extrely bad, however, in the end, Alex was still soone from the sa sect.
