Just when she checked the seventh mustard seed space, Xu Chunniang suddenly felt a hint of unusual movement.
She stopped moving, turned her head and looked towards the sea, slightly startled.
The calm sea water suddenly surged up inexplicably, and it looked like the tide was about to rise.
Xu Chunniang recalled the hours she spent at the seaside.
Except for the two monks who went into the sea and caused huge waves, the sea water was calm most of the time.
But now, why are there signs of a rising tide again
The temple keeper once said that the island would shrink by half its size every day.
And at this moment, it is midnight.
Zi hour is the last hour of the day and the earliest hour of the next day. It is when the old and new days intersect.
The sea tide is about to rise and will submerge at least half of the land on the island!
This thought flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind. She did not stay where she was. She quickly emerged from the trees and performed the Nine Steps of Freedom, moving towards the center of the island as quickly as possible.
After she left, the sea water followed silently and submerged every inch of land.
Wherever the sea water passed, the trees were silently dissolved, and finally disappeared, leaving only a vast sea.
In order to reach the maximum speed, Xu Chunniang no longer concealed her figure. After running a short distance, she quickly attracted the attention of others.
"If we rush like this, we will easily be attacked. That person is simply courting death!"
"But... she is very fast and can leave most monks behind. Or maybe she is deliberately using this method to attract other people's attacks."
But while the two were discussing, one of them discovered something was wrong and finally realized why the human female cultivator was running away at full speed.
"Oh no, the tide is rising, run away!"
The other person turned around to look, and Tong Kong shrank suddenly.
Wherever the sea passed, all the trees disappeared, leaving nothing.
The two of them no longer had the leisurely mood they had just now, and they hurriedly ran for their lives.
The expansion of the sea water is silent, fast and rapid, and it seems to sweep away everything.
A monk with good luck can discover these changes in advance and escape before the tide catches up.
Those who are unlucky or go too slowly will be swallowed up by the tide as soon as a wave comes down.
Moreover, during the escape, someone soon discovered that it was impossible to leave the island by teleportation when the tide was high.
This discovery made many people feel awe-inspiring.
The sea tide rises at midnight and will submerge half of the island.
In order to escape, the monks on the island will choose to flee towards the center of the island, where they will inevitably encounter other monks and fierce battles will break out.
But at this moment, even if one has enough spirit cores, one cannot leave the island.
So these two hours are particularly difficult to endure.
After running for a while, Xu Chunniang soon ran into trouble.
Three Bone Clan monks, each as tall as a mountain, stood in front of her.
The Bone Clan monks have no flesh and blood, only bones, but their bones have been polished to be extremely hard and have extremely strong regenerative abilities.
The bone tribe in the middle is a bone dragon.
He looked Xu Chunniang up and down, and there seemed to be something different hidden in his empty eyes.
"Hand over your spiritual core, or... be swallowed by the sea!"
The three Bone Tribe members were fearless. As long as they delayed for a moment, the sea water would catch up and swallow the people in front of them.
Their position is further back, so they can quickly withdraw after the other side is swallowed by the sea.
The Bone Tribe member on the left was a tiger. He glanced at the sea not far away and spoke with a somewhat impatient tone.
“I advise you to hurry up. If you are late, even if we agree, the sea water will not agree.
I advise you not to harbor unrealistic fantasies and think you can escape at any time. When the tide is high, even if you have collected three spirit cores, you will not be able to leave the island through teleportation!"
It turns out that when the tide is high, there are only three spirit cores, so they can't leave
She originally had ten spirit cores on her body. When she was running away just now, a blind man blocked her way. She killed him and got two spirit cores from him.
She now had twelve spirit cores in her body, and it was not like what the other party said, that she could not leave when the tide rose.
Even if she wants to leave, she can leave now.
Perhaps, the second day would begin from midnight, and one would have to meet new conditions and obtain ten spirit cores before being able to leave.
Xu Chunniang took note of the news and took a step forward without paying any attention to the three Bone Clan members who were blocking her way.
The sea water is expanding very quickly. They want to stay here and die, but she won't let them!
Seeing this, the bone dragon in the middle moved slightly and was about to stop Xu Chunniang.
But the moment he touched her, her body turned into nothingness and passed through the empty skeleton.
Only after leaving the three Bone Clan monks far behind did Xu Chunniang's body become solid again.
She looked back and saw that the sea water had indeed spread to the place where she had been previously.
There were three Bone Tribe members just now, but in the blink of an eye, only two were left!
She withdrew her gaze and continued to move towards the center of the island. The farther away from the sea, the safer she was!
But on the other hand, the closer to the center of the island, the greater the number of monks, and the more frequent the fights between them.
Staying alive has become everyone's common goal.
After the three Bone Clan members, Xu Chunniang once again encountered two blockers.
This time, she didn't even bother to wait for the other party to speak, and directly used the Law of Void to break through the barrier set up by the other party.
I don't know how many miles I escaped, but midnight finally passed and the surging sea water slowly calmed down.
The sky was still dark, and the chaotic fighting on the island showed no signs of stopping. Instead, it became more and more intense.
Spirit cores, they want more spirit cores!
Xu Chunniang quietly activated the Wood Release Technique and continued to move between the trees, looking for an enemy suitable for attack.
It's the second day, and she must obtain thirty spirit cores within today.
She only had twelve on her, eighteen more needed!
After the first day of fighting, the surviving monks were generally stronger.
The reason is very simple. Those with weaker strength have been killed and may not even live to the next day.
Of course, there are a few lucky ones, or monks who have found people of the same tribe and have the protection of their own tribe.
Xu Chunniang's target was still the lone monks and the two parties who were fighting.
Only by accumulating strength and obtaining the most spirit cores at the lowest cost can you go further in this battle.
If she encounters a tough opponent, or one with terrifying defensive power like the Stone Jade Man, or one who can hide his body like the Void Beast, and she cannot defeat the opponent in a short time, she will even take the initiative to withdraw and give up these tough challenges.
The wood escape technique allows her to move freely among the grass and trees.
