Qin Ran did not put on the bubble film before entering this mushroom space. He put on an extra layer of bubble film from the very beginning, that is, before entering the fog, when he persuaded others to wear bubbles.
After all, if we are worried about the possible microorganisms in the mist entering our mouths and noses, aren’t we also worried about them entering our skin
And here it turns out that the microbes here really do get into the skin…
The mushroom in the middle of the mushroom space is constantly emitting spores. Those spores melt the mist and open up this hemispherical space.
And it is precisely because the air here contains spores, so when Chu Batian popped the bubble on his head and tried to breathe, the spores in the air entered his body through his breath, attached to his internal organs, skin texture, and blood vessels, and then quickly took root and sprouted, with the rhizomes spreading and growing into mushrooms.
The entire body of Chu Batian, including his flesh, blood, and magic power, became nutrients for the growth of the spores.
When the mushrooms completely sucked him dry, he died...
Jian Yuanjie was the first to exit the mushroom space. The remaining four people inside watched Chu Batian's figure slowly retreating into the fog.
Before they retreated into the mist, they saw that Chu Batian had disappeared, and he had turned into a human-shaped mushroom tree!
Standing in the mist, surrounded by a vast expanse of white, the few people actually felt as if they were in another world... Bai Ruoxi sobbed softly, and the four men were silent.
After a long while, Jian Yuanjie said, "Let's go!"
Several people were about to move, but Su Changqing suddenly came in front of Qin Ran and said to him, "Mushroom spores can dissolve with the mist. The spores are such a terrifying thing, but what about the mist? What's so terrifying about the mist?! You have been shrouded in bubbles all the time. Did you know this from the beginning?"
When the others heard this, they realized that the spores could kill a Jindan cultivator in an instant, so what about the fog
They became nervous. Some looked carefully at their exposed skin to see if there was anything abnormal. Some looked inside their bodies to check if there was anything unusual. Some pulled up their long sleeves to try to cover their hands.
As for Jian Yuanjie, he looked at Qin Ran with murderous eyes.
He must have kept it to himself so he could kill himself, he thought to himself.
"I don't know. I'm just being cautious." Qin Ran replied with a normal expression.
Recalling his understanding of Qin Ran, Su Changqing slowly calmed down. He nodded and said, "I am not doubting you. I believe in Brother Qin's character... I was just excited just now. I apologize to you."
“No problem.” Qin Ran replied.
"But since there may be something in the fog, please, Brother Qin, cast a spell and create a bubble for us as well." Su Changqing asked sincerely.
"This is a small matter." Qin Ran said. He raised his hand and summoned several
Then put the remaining four people into it, making the bubbles stick to the skin without any gaps.
“Thank you.” Several people expressed their gratitude to Qin Ran.
Su Changqing and Qin Ran were both rational and smart people. They controlled their emotions very quickly, then adjusted the team, determined the direction, and led a few people to continue walking deeper into the fog.
I don't know if it's because of the lack of people or because of the death. The team of five people seemed much thinner than the team of six. There was always a sense of loneliness and desolation in their hearts. The suffocating feeling shrouded by the fog was even stronger. The pressure that was there and not there was several times more than before.
"despair!"
"despair!"
"Tsk..."
I don't know when their footsteps started to become loud enough to be heard clearly, echoing in the fog.
In fact, slowly, they felt it was noisy and the footsteps were too loud!
At some point…
"Who?!" Su Changqing, who was walking in front, suddenly shouted.
who
Qin Ran's scalp tingled. Is there anyone in this shabby place
He hurriedly activated his pupil technique to its maximum and looked around...
There really is someone!
He saw a figure flash by in the thick fog ahead and run deeper into the fog.
"Is there anyone?!" Jian Yuanjie couldn't see anyone and asked in panic.
"Is that a human?" Qin Ran asked.
Su Changqing looked back at Jian Yuanjie and Qin Ran and said, "Follow me!"
That look
Qin Ran's heart sank. There was a deep meaning in Su Changqing's eyes, but through the mist, he didn't know if he was seeing things. However, it seemed that Su Changqing really looked at him meaningfully.
Why
He was very confused.
But he didn't have time to think about it. Su Changqing in front of him had already sped up and followed the figure in the mist, so he had to follow him. The others didn't think much and just followed them.
“Is it unsafe to pursue them rashly?!” Qin Ran asked in the middle of the team.
"Are we just going to walk in silence like that? Without getting any feedback, with only the unchanging fog around us?! Just keep walking like this?!" Bai Ruoxi asked back.
Qin Ran looked at the others. Although they did not speak, they clearly agreed with Bai Ruoxi's words. After walking in this eternal fog for so long, they did not get any information about the Extreme Devouring Demon Willow...
There were even casualties in the team. If they were not all strong-willed, they would have gone crazy a long time ago. Now that there was a change, they had to catch up and see what happened.
Seeing them all like this, although Qin Ran felt uneasy, he couldn't
There was no need to say anything more, just secretly increase your vigilance and make sure you were in the middle of the team.
They were all Jindan cultivators and were actually very fast. Even though they intentionally slowed down in order to ensure the integrity of the team, it still didn't take long for them to catch up with the figure.
There was still some distance between them, and Qin Ran could only see a human figure. Su Changqing said, "Brother in front, we have no ill intentions. Can we have a conversation?"
The figure in front didn't react and just kept running.
Su Changqing tried to persuade him a few more times, but seeing that it was still useless, he pointed his sword forward and slashed out a silver-grey sword energy. The sword energy was like a silk thread, disappearing in the mist and slashing at the figure.
"Hiss..."
Suddenly, a strange scream that did not sound like a human voice came from the front, and then the figure disappeared out of thin air.
The figure seemed familiar. Qin Ran frowned and asked, "Where did the figure go?"
Su Changqing did not answer, and the others could not see anything at all, so naturally they had no idea what to say.
The team did not stop, following Su Changqing's footsteps, and soon arrived at the place where the figure disappeared. Su Changqing took two steps forward, and suddenly squatted down as if he saw some important clues.
The people behind were interested and rushed over.
Qin Ran came to Su Changqing, saw what was in front of Su Changqing, and his heart skipped a beat.
That is, a piece of...
tentacle?!
That thing looked very much like an octopus tentacle, pitch black, as thick as an adult's arm, covered with slippery mucus, smooth on one side and barbed on the other.
Moreover, this tentacle was still wriggling on the ground, as if it was still alive.
"Isn't it a human?" Qin Ran couldn't help but ask, "How could it be... a tentacle?"
"Is this the thing we are chasing?" Jian Yuanjie also asked.
"It should be..." Su Changqing pointed at the broken part of the tentacle and said, "There is some remnant of my sword intent there, which is what I just cut off."
Qin Ran looked over and saw that the cross section was oozing blue-black blood. The blood was corrosive and was corroding the ground. There was also an inexplicable sharpness on the cross section.
Sword intent
There is a saying among sword practitioners that sword energy is easy to practice, but sword meaning is difficult to understand!
This Su Changqing actually has sword intentions
Qin Ran couldn't help but look at him twice more, he was indeed a genius of Lingnan Immortal Sect.
At this moment, Su Changqing's face suddenly turned horrified and he shouted, "Be careful!!"
Then, Qin Ran also sensed something and stood up to look forward...
"Hoarse..."
In the deep fog ahead, there was a huge, terrifying, and extremely oppressive black shadow coming towards this side.
