Chapter 1356: Chapter 1356: The Brave Know No Fear
Ye You flew up in pursuit, raising the Sparrow Spirit Scepter to unleash the Vigor Gold Knife magic skill. The black machete’s shadow swept sideways at the legs of the fleeing Redbacked Spiders, severing countless legs simultaneously, leaving their round bodies rolling clumsily on the dry ground.
Now, the ground was littered with severed slender legs and the round bodies of the Redbacked Spiders. With the loss of their eight legs, they also lost the ability to move. The round bodies could only struggle and spin in place, with the red spots on their backs appearing particularly vivid.
Zi Yu was very grateful for Ye You and Qin Sisi’s help and wanted to return the favor by assisting them further. Seeing those round bodies were now immobile, he raised his jade silver rod and rushed forward, intending to kill a few Redbacked Spiders to help Ye You and collect inner cores to enhance their ability to adapt to harsh environnts.
Just as his jade silver rod was about to hit a Redbacked Spider, it suddenly opened its big mouth and sprayed a stream of black venom at Zi Yu.
Because the distance was too close and the Redbacked Spider launched a sudden attack, it caught Zi Yu off guard, and the black venom splattered directly onto his face.
"Ah!" Zi Yu let out a cry of pain, covering his eyes and retreating.
Ye You’s expression changed drastically. He quickly flapped his wings and rushed over, grabbing Zi Yu’s arm and dragging him to a safe area.
"How do you feel?" Qin Sisi asked anxiously.
"My eyes..." Zi Yu’s voice was filled with a hint of despair and panic.
Ye You took out a Jade lting Pill from his portable space and stuffed it into Zi Yu’s mouth.
Qin Sisi placed her palm close to Zi Yu’s face, releasing the Spring Wind and Rain magic skill to heal Zi Yu and expel the poison.
For pure healing, Wood Magic is more effective, but for detoxifying, Water Magic works better.
Taking advantage of the ti Qin Sisi was helping Zi Yu expel the poison, Ye You returned to the battlefield and released the Blaze Prairie Fire fire attribute magic skill, burning all the immobilized Redbacked Spider bodies on the ground to ash, even abandoning the inner cores.
Although the inner core was important, he and Qin Sisi had already ingested many, gaining decent adaptability to the harsh environnt of the Forest of Death. Now, the inner cores were no longer necessary for them.
Since the Redbacked Spiders had lost their ability to move yet remained so aggressively dangerous, causing imnse harm, it was better to eliminate them quickly.
In the fiercely burning purple flas, the round bodies and slender legs of the Redbacked Spiders were reduced to nothingness. On the edges, a few tried to escape, and in a life-or-death struggle, the round bodies without long legs managed to move a small distance.
Ye You snorted coldly, flew forward, and fiercely chopped down with the Sparrow Spirit Scepter, sending several Redbacked Spiders to hell, then extracted their inner cores from their heads and threw their bodies back into the flas.
Soon, nearly a hundred strong and highly venomous Redbacked Spiders disappeared forever.
However, Zi Yu’s body did not recover.
Even though Ye You and Qin Sisi imdiately administered the Jade lting Pill and used Water Magic to heal him, the venom of the Redbacked Spiders was unusually potent. Spray directly contacted the skin and already caused damage before the Jade lting Pill could neutralize it.
Zi Yu’s face, once smooth and fair, was now red and black, bumpy and hideous.
What caused him more anguish was that he could no longer see.
The venom splashed directly into his eyes, and his eyeballs were quickly corroded. The Jade lting Pill could detoxify internally, but it couldn’t restore his vision.
Zi Yu was plunged into darkness, unable to see the colorful world of flowers and greenery anymore.
The venom of the Redbacked Spiders was exceedingly rare in its potency. Even though Zi Yu lost his sight and his appearance was ruined, this outco was still the best under the circumstances.
If not for the tily rescue by Ye You and Qin Sisi, his entire head would have been corroded by the venom, leading to a swift and tragic death.
Ye You and Qin Sisi remained silent for a long ti, seemingly not knowing how to convey this cruel truth to Zi Yu.
At this point, Zi Yu’s mood instead cald down, and he said in a gentle tone, "You two don’t need to worry. I originally planned to disperse my Spiritual Power to restore the Forest of Death. Whether or not I can see is no longer important to . It’s just the path ahead that I must trouble you both with."
After saying this, he bowed slightly in the direction of Ye You and Qin Sisi.
Ye You remained silent for a mont, then walked up to Zi Yu, patted his shoulder, and said boldly, "Don’t worry, we will definitely escort you to the central area to fulfill your wish."
In his heart, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration for Zi Yu, who was willing to sacrifice himself to save this forest. Such benevolence was worthy of a king’s deanor.
The brave are fearless, the benevolent are invincible.
This arduous battle had once again depleted much of their regained magic power. However, they dared not linger here for fear of another wave of Redbacked Spiders, which would delay their journey to the central area of the Forest of Death.
The three of them ingested a few Spirit Revitalizing Pills and Bodhi Pills. Ye You set Qin Sisi on his shoulder, and Qin Sisi gripped one end of the Golden Scale Snake Whip, tying the other end around Zi Yu’s waist. Ye You flapped his magic wings, carrying them both into the sky.
With Zi Yu having lost his eyes and consequently his combat prowess, their situation was dire. They needed to conserve their strength, as unknown dangers awaited them in the central area.
Ye You spread his Divine Sense, lowering the flight altitude upon sensing Ghost Wing Bats approaching, and used the Lightning Shield Dodge magic skill to quickly distance themselves from the Ghost Wing Bats, avoiding direct confrontation.
After several days and nights of flying, evading multiple waves of Ghost Wing Bats, they finally arrived at the central area of the Forest of Death.
Other regions still had many withered trees, the charred trunks, and barren branches presenting a grim sight.
In contrast, the central area had no trees at all, just a vast, yellow, dry land, cracked like scars upon the earth, testifying to the dryness and harshness of the area.
As soon as Qin Sisi and the others entered the central area, they felt the wind’s force had increased considerably, with the howling gale like the roar of a demon, ravaging the empty land.
The air was also drier; with each breath, they could feel the moisture being drawn from their bodies, leaving their lungs feeling as if they were about to ignite.
Ye You rembered he had just acquired a few more inner cores and quickly took them out for Qin Sisi to ingest. Though few in number, they would be beneficial.
After taking the inner cores, Qin Sisi felt slightly better. She was about to speak to Ye You when her gaze suddenly froze, her eyes widened as she looked ahead.
