Chapter 405

Under the scorching sun and without any cover, those without any cultivation abilities were drenched in sweat. Fortunately, they had finally conquered the steep mountain. After a brief rest, they continued for another half-hour before arriving at the terrifying Swamp Valley.

Swamp Valley was a dry riverbed with barren mountains cradling it on either side. It was filled with withered yellow grass, black soil, and emitted a foul odor of decaying vegetation and bodies.

Nico looked at Swamp Valley stretching endlessly before him with an expression of despair.

Bradley shook his head and said, “If we go over the mountain, it’ll probably take us seven or eight hours. There’s a cave in front of Swamp Valley. We can reach Soul-Splitting Ridge in just an hour by going through it.”

With that, Bradley took off his shoes, tied the laces together, and hung them around his neck. He then stepped into the muck confidently and led the way. “It’s safe to walk along the edge. Don’t worry, just follow along!”

The rest of the group followed suit after taking off their shoes.
