Doupo: Life Simulator System

Chapter 193: The Lizard-People

"No, no matter whether I use the Heavenly Flame to sense it or use my spiritual power to probe inside, I can't sense the Nether Poison Flame's aura."

"It seems that this Nether Poison Flame really has been gone for a long time". Xiao Ming frowned tightly as he uttered these words.

In his perception, although there were many strange flames in the canyon, the auras of those flames were all very weak, and none of them were comparable to that of a Heavenly Flame.

Although he had already expected this result, Xiao Ming still felt a little helpless.

"Then what should we do next, search for the Heavenly Flame? If that's the case, let's extend our search, right? It's more efficient to search that way". Zi Yan suggested.

"Split up and search?" After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ming shook his head and rejected the idea.

"We are now in the depths of the Nether Poison Swamp, which is exceptionally dangerous and full of traps everywhere. I won't feel comfortable if we split up."

"Besides, the Nether Poison Flame is particularly fierce, it might be dangerous if we face it alone, let's move forward together."

In response, Zi Yan and Xiao Yi Xian knew that what Xiao Ming said was true, so they had no opinion.

Xiao Ming looked into the fog-filled canyon and seemed to have found something else, and suddenly said, "However, I still have something to do before I leave here, so wait for me here for a moment."

Without waiting for Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan's reply, he jumped into the canyon.

As soon as he entered the canyon, Xiao Ming felt that the mist around him felt as if it had a mind of its own, desperately trying to penetrate into his body, even though he had taken the Qingxin Pill, his body was still a little affected, and Xiao Ming knew that this was a sign that the toxin was very powerful.

Immediately, his mind moved and an invisible flame surged out of his body, blocking the toxins around him.

Without the influence of the toxins, Xiao Ming was able to concentrate better. The situation inside the canyon was even worse than it looked on the outside, almost impossible to see anything.

Luckily, Xiao Ming's spiritual power was strong enough to easily find the route he wanted to take.

As he was rushing forward, some traces of huge snakes and some strange kinds of footprints strangely appeared in the canyon.

These kinds of footprints did not look human. 'I can't believe I found traces of activity around here, it looks like this canyon has been frequented by some kind of creature.' Xiao Ming thought with a frown.

The environment of the canyon was extremely harsh, and there were no traces of life, so the fact that someone entered here meant that there was something attracting them.

Xiao Ming entered for the same reason, the places where Heavenly Flames were created tended to have their own special characteristics.

It was because of these special characteristics, that they could grow some rare medicinal herbs.

Now that he saw activity from other creatures, Xiao Ming sighed lightly, 'I hope there are some good things left.'

After saying that, Xiao Ming's speed increased a few more points.

Moving along the path, a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Ming finally arrived at an open space.

Unlike other places, there was an open space thirty meters in diameter with no black poisonous fog, and in the center of the space was a small umbrella-shaped tree the height of a person with some purple and green fruits hanging scattered around it.

"This is the Heavenly Poison Fruit". Approaching the fruit tree, Xiao Ming noticed some special patterns on the purple fruit, and immediately pronounced the name of this fruit.

'Heavenly Poison Fruit, this fruit is the main herb of the eighth-tier pill, Heavenly Heart Poison Refining Pill, it is green when unripe and turns purple when ripe, its core contains a poisonous pulp that can cause a Dou Ancestor to die a violent death in an instant. Strangely, there are no magical beasts guarding the surroundings of this herb, and there are only a few fruits on the tree...'

'...Indeed, someone got here first, those with this ability must be from the nearby mysterious tribe'. Xiao Ming thought of the mysterious tribes marked on the Nether Poison Swamp Map, they were the most suspicious.

'This kind of tribe similar to the Snake-People Tribe is not something to mess with, I hope we won't run into them'.

These tribes usually have a strong territorial sense and are very xenophobic, so it's best to avoid trouble.

Although the location of the tribe was marked on the map, Xiao Ming had been avoiding them all these days.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ming did not continue to think about these things, but took out a jade box and picked the purple fruits from the small tree, while the unripe ones were left untouched.

After doing this, Xiao Ming left the place and returned along the original path after a light exploration.

A few moments later, when Xiao Ming came out of the canyon, he found Zi Yan, Xiao Yi Xian, and the Amethyst Winged Lion King confronting a green-skinned lizard man.

Xiao Ming's appearance disturbed the lizard man, who turned his head and seeing that he encountered another human, immediately opened his mouth, revealing a mouth full of black teeth, and uttered words that Xiao Ming did not understand.

After saying this, the lizard man immediately dived into the mud puddle not far away and disappeared, leaving Xiao Ming stunned.

When he arrived next to Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan. And after Xiao Yi Xian's explanation, Xiao Ming understood what had happened.

In fact, it was just that they were waiting for Xiao Ming here in a very normal manner, and then this Lizard Man happened to pass by.

"Just happened to pass by coincidentally?" Xiao Ming brushed against the place where the Lizard Man had just stopped and discovered that the footprints he left behind were exactly the same as the strange footprints in the canyon, so Xiao Ming understood that this Lizard Man wasn't doing something as simple as just passing by coincidentally.

He should be trying to enter the canyon, but it turned out that he was blocked by the Amethyst Winged Lion King and the girls.

However, he did not know what the lizard man had just mumbled, even though Xiao Ming knew many things, it definitely did not include the dialect of the lizard men.

After sighing for a moment, he immediately said to Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan, "We should leave quickly."

No matter what the Lizard Man said, anyway, Xiao Ming felt that what he said was not a good thing, otherwise, why would he run so fast?

It was better to hurry up and leave, so as not to cause trouble and waste their precious time.

Half an hour after Xiao Ming left, several pale old lizard men with majestic auras suddenly appeared outside the canyon.

In the midst of the pale lizard men, the lizard man that Xiao Ming and the girls had seen earlier was clearly among them.

As soon as they appeared, the lizard men chattered for half a day, and one of them entered the canyon and, a moment later, ran back out in an uproar.

Another more intense conversation took place before the lizard men disappeared from where they had been a moment ago.

...

A few more days passed, and Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian had been wandering the forest for a long time.

They still hadn't found the Nether Poison Flame, Xiao Ming had even made a life simulation during this period.

In the Simulator, although it mentioned that the Nether Poison Flame had been found, there was no mention of what specific location it was.

If it wasn't for the beautiful smile that Xiao Yi Xian carried with her at all times, which made his mood improve, Xiao Ming would feel an immense headache.

However, this simulator had not been so useless, at least, according to the simulator, Xiao Ming knew that the Lizard-People in this dark swamp were watching them.
