Chapter 9 Qingguo
Lu Xiaotian was shivering from the cold on the rock, feeling that the time was extremely difficult. However, a wolf howl still sounded from time to time on the cliff. Lu Xiaotian was not sure if it was still the same group of wolves during the day. Moreover, it was night and the mountain wind was too strong. If he forced his way up, he might be blown away by the wind accidentally. If you go to the bottom of the cliff, then there may really be no chance of survival.
In winter, due to the need to keep out the cold, people always eat much larger meals than in normal seasons. Not long after midnight, Lu Xiaotian's stomach growled again.
Being hungry and cold, with no other place to find food, it was really hard for him. I got up and wanted to pull down a few more dead vines. It would be good to warm them by the fire to drive away the cold.
Fortunately, no one has collected the ivy on the rock wall, and there are still many vines. Enough to handle it for a while.
He lit a small bonfire, feeling the heat from the fire, and the chill in his body was immediately dissipated. However, under the agitation of the wind, sparks swirled in the air and flew out from time to time, and the vines burned quickly.
Lu Xiaotian had to collect some more. After cutting off another vine with his sword, Lu Xiaotian pulled hard and found that it didn't move.
He walked forward curiously and found that there were many stems growing under the vine, extending into the rock wall. Moreover, the hard rock wall is slightly arched and covered with fine cracks. From a crack, Lu Xiaotian used the sporadic firelight and discovered that there was something like a yam growing inside. Because it grows inside, you can't see the size of this thing.
However, this unexpected discovery made him a little overjoyed. He quickly used his dagger to carefully pry the rocks on the surface. The rocks on the surface seemed to be loosened by the fruit inside. Lu Xiaotian didn't use much effort to pry off the slit stone next to it. A light blue fruit with an extremely smooth surface, only the size of a goose egg, was revealed inside.
Compared with the mountain potato, it was much smaller, and Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If it was the size of a mountain potato, it could fill his stomach to some extent, and he would be confident that he could outlast the wolves on the cliff. But I'm afraid this goose egg-sized fruit won't last long, so it can only be said to be better than nothing. Such a big fruit, which was not hard to the touch, could actually push away the hard rock. After being disappointed, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but marvel.
With the experience just now, Lu Xiaotian searched among the vines for a while, but still found nothing. So he went back again. Use a dagger to make a small opening on the green fruit. Under the dancing firelight, a few drops of green juice oozed out from the opened hole. Just by smelling it, he felt a refreshing feeling of relief.
The aroma of the green fruit was pleasant. Lu Xiaotian quickly put down his dagger and licked the juice from it with his tongue without any waste. A sweetness melts from the tip of the tongue. This was the first time he had tasted such delicious fruit. Being hungry and cold, he swallowed the fruit together with the skin and flesh.
It’s good, but I’m not full. Lu Xiaotian licked his lips and was still not satisfied. But just when he was savoring the delicious taste of the green fruit, he didn't notice that the green fruit pulp he swallowed in his stomach melted into a ball of blue light and gathered together. The cyan light group flashes among the gravel, looking atmospheric, mysterious and illusory.
The cyan light group rotates rapidly, and as the cyan light appears, it rapidly expands into a vast, eternal and bizarre space. But this strange, extremely vast space is hidden in Lu Xiaotian’s belly.
There was a sudden boom, and a thunder seemed to sound in his mind, shaking his consciousness for a moment.
Lu Xiaotian felt as if there were tens of millions of huge waves rushing through his body, and the majestic and boundless spiritual power seemed to burst his body at any time. He could even see a cyan halo shining on his body in a daze. The skin even began to develop fine cracks, like a piece of porcelain that had not been completely broken.
The cracks spread like spider webs. Blood seeped out from these cracks from time to time, and in a moment, Lu Xiaotian turned into a bloody man.
What on earth is going on? Is this green fruit poisonous? Lu Xiaotian felt panic in his heart, this poison was too violent.
The collision of airflow in the body still does not stop at all. Is this death?
When Lu Xiaotian was in excruciating pain, the huge flow in his body rushed into the sea of consciousness.
With a buzzing sound, Lu Xiaotian's vision went dark, he lost consciousness and passed out completely.
But this did not stop, the blood on Lu Xiaotian's body still seeped out from time to time. However, these oozing blood stains were not absorbed by the rocks, but spread into a thin blood mist, lingering on the surface of Lu Xiaotian's body, looking extremely weird against the cyan halo. Suddenly, lightning and thunder formed a huge vortex with Lu Xiaotian's body as the center, and the surrounding white mist rushed towards the center of the vortex.
"Why are you here again?" The blood dwarf in black clothes looked extremely ugly when he saw the small hut in front of him.
As soon as the figure flashed, three other people came one after another, it was the old man in black robe, the big beard, and the young woman in green skirt. The young woman in green skirt looked anxious and said, "We have all been around seven or eight times. We still haven’t found the exit. The maze here is really powerful. If this continues, I’m afraid we’ll be trapped here and die.”
"The maze here is so powerful. What can I do? I can only take one step at a time."
The old man in black robe has a gloomy face. He has been trapped in this place for nearly two months. Who can replace him? Everyone would be in a bad mood. If they weren't in this big formation and could find some food from time to time, they would probably starve to death. After all, only the powerful golden elixir can eliminate grains and eliminate the need to eat whole grains.
Hmph
A pig squeaked.
“No, they are demon porcupines, there are so many of them.” Big Beard screamed when he saw the demon porcupines jumping out of the weeds in the mist. Although these demonic porcupines are also first-level demonic beasts, they are only equivalent to the third level of Qi refining. However, it has rough skin and thick flesh, and is more durable than some second-level monsters. First-level monsters are equivalent to the strength of the first to third levels of Qi refining. The second level is the middle stage of Qi refining, which is equivalent to the strength of the fourth to sixth levels of Qi refining. The force of the demonic porcupine's collision is quite a headache.
"Whatever nonsense, just kill him." The blood dwarf was already impatient. He reached into his storage bag and took out two silver roulette wheels. Throwing it hard with both hands, the silver roulette made a low buzzing sound and spun towards the demon porcupine on the opposite side.
A shrill scream sounded, Chi——
The demon porcupine was directly cut in half by the teeth on the silver wheel.
The young woman in the green dress stretched her hands forward, and two long purple silk ribbons flew out from her sleeves, several feet long. At the same time, she entangled the two demon porcupines and tied them tightly. The young woman in the green skirt flicked her wrist, and Zi Ling tied her waist and hit the porcupine hard on the ground. With a bang, two big craters were made. When Zi Ling retracted, the demon porcupine had already fallen to the ground, its nose, mouth, and eyes were bleeding, and it was twitching. After a few clicks, he stopped moving.
Hmph
One was nearly ten feet long, and the two fangs protruding from its mouth were covered with blood. Its eyes jumped out of the mist with fierce eyes. After the giant demon porcupine appeared, all around appeared one after another. Dozens of demonic porcupines of different sizes with black bodies and needle-like hair on their bodies.
