Chapter 246: Escape
The white mist that just appeared was wisps and not dense.
Just in the past dozen breaths, the mountain forest, which was not very bright, has been completely covered by this white mist.
Under the cover of the white mist, everything around him began to become hazy.
Standing near this strange rock, in Jiang Yao's sight, the giant trees standing around were all blurry, giving people a very unreal feeling.
What's even more surprising is that whether it's the giant tree or the strange stone behind him, there are some illusory-looking ghosts that seem to be attached to them, appearing and disappearing.
With Jiang Yao's eyesight, the double images that appeared in places that were too far away were still somewhat unclear.
But the strange rock was only a short distance away from him, and the illusory shadow overlapping it, Jiang Yao could already determine at a glance that it should be the vague shadow of a big tree.
Taking a deep breath, he grasped some of the uneven spots on the strange rock with both hands, and then kicked off the ground with his feet.
It was just a stone that was no more than one person tall. Within three seconds, Jiang Yao had already climbed onto the stone.
Looking at the illusory silhouette of the big tree in front of him, he thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
It was just an illusory shadow that looked unreal. This time, he fell into the void and did not really catch the real thing.
In this regard, Jiang Yao is not discouraged.
If it doesn’t work once, he takes back his palm and does it again.
Not far away, the illusory figure carrying a large backpack, or some other vague-looking strange objects, flashed away from time to time and appeared several times in a row.
Regarding these things, Jiang Yao, who had suffered losses before, acted as if he had never seen them before and was too lazy to pay attention to them.
He scratched at the illusory shadow of the big tree in front of him many times. Finally, the feeling of catching an empty spot disappeared. He clearly felt that the strength of his hand It does indeed fall on the entity.
Now that he had a solid grasp, he took a deep breath and climbed directly towards the shadow of the big tree.
It was originally just an illusory shadow of a big tree. The more he climbed up, the more real the shadow became.
Only after climbing four or five meters, this shadow has truly turned into a big green tree.
The strange stone under the big tree, in Jiang Yao's sight, had become blurry and completely unreal.
He sat down directly on a thick branch on the top of the big tree.
The gray-brown bark covering the trunk and the emerald green leaves growing on the surrounding branches made Jiang Yao feel so friendly.
Next, he didn’t do anything extra, he just waited quietly.
The fog in the mountain forest is getting thicker and thicker. In less than half an hour, white mist is already rolling around.
Except for the green tree where he was, even the strange rocks under the tree had been completely covered by the thick white mist, so that Jiang Yao could no longer see the slightest shadow.
A kind of indescribable sleepiness suddenly came to his heart. He forced himself to support himself and did not let himself fall asleep.
Finally, the extremely dense white mist began to gradually become thinner, until all traces were completely lost.
Jiang Yao, who was originally sitting on the thick branch, stood up directly and pushed aside the dense branches and leaves above his head. The golden light emanating from the scorching sun in the sky was so dazzling, so eye-catching. Dazzling.
Jiang Yao, who was in the evil body state, was directly illuminated by the rays of the scorching sun. Although he felt tingling pain all over his body and was extremely uncomfortable, his heart was full of joy.
Retreating into the dense canopy of the big tree beneath him, he lowered his head and looked down.
That strange stone has long since disappeared without any trace or shadow.
The surrounding trees and grass were full of vitality and greenery, and the chirping sounds of insects fell into Jiang Yao's ears, making him feel so pleasant.
“I’m back. After leaving that weird area, I’ve really returned to the jungle of Saigon...” His words were filled with deep joy, and Jiang Yao jumped down from the big tree. .
For ordinary people, falling directly from a tree of nearly ten meters is very likely to fall to half death.
But except for the falling movement, which was slightly louder, Jiang Yao acted as if nothing had happened.
After standing firm, he immediately released the Yin Sha body state without saying a word.
After he returned to his ordinary state, he could no longer even wear the only pair of underwear on his body, as if it was about to fall off on its own.
The way he looks now, there is not much flesh and blood left, just a little bit of skin and bones, which is really no different from the mummy that was just dug out of the ground.
If he looked like this on a mountain trail outside the jungle, there would be no need for him to do anything more. The climbers he encountered would most likely be fainted by him.
In addition, there was an indescribable feeling of hunger that surged into Jiang Yao's heart.
Looking at the fallen leaves and rotten wood on the ground, he had the terrifying thought of stuffing it directly into his mouth.
Above the light curtain panel, the original life span of thirty-two years was like a roller coaster. It dropped five points in a row. It dropped to twenty-seven years old before it finally stopped and did not continue going down. fall.
“Fuck you, grandma...” Jiang Yao, who was still full of joy, was a little frightened when he noticed that his lifespan had dropped significantly on the panel. His expression was extremely ugly, and he couldn't control himself at all, so he started swearing.
He took out all the remaining food in the storage space and piled it on the ground.
He was extremely hungry, and his whole body was dominated by appetite. As soon as he sat on the ground, he didn't bother to look at anything edible, and stuffed it into his mouth without saying a word.
I don’t know what was in the food he just ate.
Suddenly, he felt a terrifying heat surge from his stomach, gushing out everywhere in his body.
Like a long drought, his dry flesh and blood began to plump up at a speed visible to the naked eye under the stimulation of the heat.
His whole body was burning hot, as if he was in a furnace. The terrifying heat was rushing through his body, unable to be vented out at all.
"That unknown wild fruit with three purple stripes was just swallowed by me..."
In an instant, Jiang Yao had already reacted.
This wild fruit was stored in the storage space. Originally, he planned to test it after getting out of trouble, and only after confirming that it was non-toxic and edible, he would try to eat some.
Just now, his hunger took over and he stuffed everything he could eat into his mouth.
If it hadn't been for this terrifying heat, he would never have thought that this wild fruit existed in his storage space.
In just this moment, the shriveled body that originally looked like a mummy has become much plumper.
The horrible feeling of hunger had long since disappeared, as if he was full. There seemed to be heat surging in every part of his body.
Jiang Yao is very experienced in how to digest after eating.
He jumped up from the ground and began to practice the Wild Dragon Fist.
Once, twice, three times...
Suddenly, he seemed to have some realization. Although his fists and kicks did not stop, a lot of spiritual insights related to the Manghuang Dragon Fist poured into him. in mind.
The same move, performed in his hands, seemed to contain a little more charm than before.
Finally, the raging heat in his body was completely exhausted. Jiang Yao stood up with his fists closed and focused on his panel light screen.

...
"My life span has reached thirty-five again? It was clearly twenty-seven just now. Is it because of that fruit that my life span has increased by eight years?"
What is missing more and more? , the more he cares about it. Among the various information displayed on the panel, what Jiang Yao values most is definitely his own lifespan.
At this moment, after seeing that his life span had returned to thirty-five, he, who had been cursing just now, now had a face full of surprises.
“In addition to the increase in lifespan, the progress of cultivation in the Skin Refining Realm has also increased by a full ten points, reaching the figure of seventy-nine percent.”
"In addition, the Manghuang Dragon Fist has also changed from a novice to a proficient one."
"No wonder, all kinds of insights about practicing Manghuang Dragon Fist suddenly appeared in my mind. It turns out that this is the practice of Kung Fu. The results of the advancement. "
"Compared with when I first started, the proficiency level of Manghuang Dragon Fist should improve the efficiency of my practice and increase my progress in the Skin Refining Realm. Let’s go!”
After checking his lifespan, Jiang Yao browsed through the other various information on the panel.
From the time he accidentally ate the wild fruit until he has consumed all the heat flow, it has only been an hour or two in the past.
But just such a small amount of time brought him huge benefits.
“Not only did my practice of Manghuang Dragon Fist improve a lot, that wild fruit also directly increased my life span by eight years.”
“This This thing is definitely a well-deserved treasure.”
“There are probably a lot of similar good things in that strange mountain forest. Unfortunately, my knowledge is limited. I don’t know what things are good for me. I can’t tell the difference.”
“If I hadn’t been in an ordinary state at that time and smelled the strange fragrance, I would have passed by it.”
"I have been searching in that weird mountain forest for so long. I have encountered many good things, but I have missed them all."
...
With a few points Helpless, Jiang Yao's face was full of pain and he sighed.
