Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Chapter 177: The First Step of the Exploration - Misty Jungle

After getting the scroll of the Spirit Snake Cave, Qin Feng and Chu Tian made some preparations and decided to set off immediately. Although it was an adventure, there were still many unexpected surprises and jokes along the way, which added a lot of fun to the journey.

In the morning, Qin Feng and Chu Tian were ready to go and stood at the gate of Douluo Academy. Qin Feng looked at the scroll in his hand, full of expectations: "Chu Tian, ​​our destination this time is the Spirit Snake Cave, which is full of unknowns and dangers. We must be alert."

Chu Tian was carrying a large bag of snacks, stuffing them into his mouth while mumbling, "Don't worry, I'm the future star of Douluo Academy, nothing will go wrong."

Qin Feng shook his head helplessly: "You brought so many snacks, are you here for an adventure or a picnic?"

Chu Tian grinned: "You have to eat enough when exploring! You don't want me to fail at the critical moment because of hunger, right?"

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, then sighed: "Okay, let's go, don't keep Ye Li and the others waiting for too long."

They walked all the way to the back mountain of the academy, where there was a dense jungle. The legendary Spirit Snake Cave was hidden deep in the jungle. Ye Li and Zhang Meng had already been waiting at the agreed location. Seeing Qin Feng and Chu Tian, ​​Ye Li smiled slightly: "You are finally here, are you ready?"

"Of course!" Chu Tian excitedly waved the map in his hand, "We have been prepared for a long time!"

Zhang Meng nodded and said in a deep voice: "The jungle is full of fog and dangers are lurking everywhere. We must stay vigilant."

Qin Feng looked at the dense trees around him and frowned slightly: "This jungle looks more complicated than I imagined, everyone be careful."

As soon as they entered the jungle, the light around them immediately became dim and the air was filled with a damp smell, as if every step they took might lead to stepping on something dangerous.

"This place is really eerie." Chu Tian looked around, with a hint of nervousness in his tone, "It feels like something will jump out of the bushes at any time."

Ye Li walked in front with a focused look on her face: "This jungle is called the Misty Jungle. It is said that there are many ancient mechanisms and illusions in it. If you are not careful, you will get lost. We must follow the instructions on the map closely."

Qin Feng nodded: "Everyone, be careful, there are not only traps here, but also soul beasts."

After walking for a while, the fog gradually enveloped the entire jungle, the vision became increasingly blurred, and the surrounding scene became hazy and mysterious. Chu Tian's steps were a little hesitant: "Why do I feel like we have been walking for a long time, but are still going in circles?"

"This is the scary thing about the foggy forest." Ye Li explained while looking at the map, "The fog here can cause illusions and make people lose their way easily."

"Then what should we do?" Chu Tian asked worriedly.

Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "We can try to use soul power to explore the way, maybe we can find the path hidden in the fog."

Zhang Meng nodded in agreement: "Let me try."

As he spoke, Zhang Meng closed his eyes and used his soul power to sense the surrounding environment. After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and pointed to the right: "There is a hidden path over there, we can try it."

"Okay, let's go!" Qin Feng immediately took the lead and walked in the direction Zhang Meng pointed.

After walking along the path for a while, they finally walked out of the foggy area, and the view ahead became wider. The four of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh: "Finally we got out, I thought we would be trapped in that damn fog forever!"

Ye Li smiled slightly: "The misty jungle is indeed a big test, but we haven't reached the Spirit Snake Cave yet, the real challenge is still to come."

"I'm not afraid of challenges, but I'm afraid of having no food." Chu Tian joked, and took out a piece of snack from his backpack and started to eat it.

Qin Feng looked at him helplessly: "Can't you be serious? We are in a dangerous situation now."

Chu Tian grinned: "It is precisely because we are in danger that we need to maintain our physical strength!"

Qin Feng couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, and continued to lead everyone forward. Although Chu Tian kept making jokes, it also eased the originally tense atmosphere a little.

As they walked, they suddenly heard the sound of flowing water in front of them. Qin Feng waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, listened carefully, and confirmed: "There should be a river ahead, which may be the 'Liusha River' marked on the map."

Ye Li nodded: "The Quicksand River is very dangerous. The bottom of the river is flowing sand. Once you fall in, it is very difficult to climb out."

Chu Tian looked puzzled: "Then how do we cross the river? Do we have to fly over?"

Qin Feng looked at the river surface, thought for a moment and said: "We can use soul power to create a temporary bridge, but we need everyone's cooperation."

Zhang Meng immediately said: "I can use the power of the giant rock bear to build a stone bridge across the river."

Ye Li agreed: "I will be responsible for protection to prevent other dangers."

"Okay, let's act." Qin Feng gave the order decisively.

Zhang Meng summoned a giant rock bear, which waved its huge paws and slapped the ground. Suddenly, several huge stones rose from the ground and were placed on both sides of the river, forming a simple stone bridge.

"Everyone, cross the river quickly!" Qin Feng shouted, while paying attention to the movements around him.

Chu Tian was the first to rush up, shouting as he ran: "Hurry up, I don't want to take a bath in this quicksand!"

Ye Li and Zhang Meng followed closely behind, while Qin Feng stayed behind to ensure that everyone crossed the river safely. Just as they were about to reach the other side, suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the bushes on the other side of the river.

"There's something!" Ye Li shouted alertly, and immediately released a cold air, freezing the area on the other side of the river.

Immediately afterwards, a huge quicksand python emerged from the grass, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced towards them on the bridge.

"Run!" Qin Feng shouted, and led everyone to rush to the other side.

The quicksand python chased after him relentlessly, its huge body weighing down the stone bridge. Chu Tian was the last one to jump onto the other side. Looking back, he saw that the stone bridge had begun to collapse. He couldn't help but pat his chest and said, "Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been soaked in the quicksand with that giant snake."

Qin Feng looked at the Quicksand Python on the other side and frowned: "It seems that this river is not only a trap, but also has a guardian."

Ye Li put away her coldness, nodded and said, "There may be more monsters near the Spirit Snake Cave than these. We have to be more careful."

After crossing the Quicksand River, everyone finally arrived at a relatively flat area. Chu Tian looked at the sky and said, "It's getting dark. How about we find a place to camp and continue our journey tomorrow?"

Qin Feng looked around and nodded in agreement: "This area is relatively safe, we can rest for a night."

They found an open space and lit a bonfire. Chu Tian immediately took out his snacks to share, and Ye Li began to prepare dinner. Everyone sat around the bonfire, enjoying a rare relaxing time.

"Today was really thrilling, but at least it was safe." Chu Tian sighed while chewing on dry food.

Ye Li smiled and said, "This is just the beginning. The road ahead may be even more difficult."

Qin Feng nodded: "But no matter how difficult it is, we must persevere. The secrets and treasures of the Spirit Snake Cave are just ahead, we must be prepared."

Zhang Meng smiled slightly: "With you here, I believe we will succeed."

As night fell, the light of the campfire illuminated the faces of the four people. They knew that the next journey was full of unknowns and challenges, but with the support and trust of each other, they were fearless.
