On the other side.
Chu Xuan and Zhou Yu were not far from the exit of the mist.
A cold snort ca from behind them.
"Hmph, trying to escape?"
"Leave your life here for !"
A foul-slling gale attacked without warning.
Zhou Yu couldn't react in ti and was struck hard in the back, sent flying, his life or death unknown.
Behind Chu Xuan, a crimson blood shadow suddenly appeared, blocking the fierce blow for him.
It was the Blood Evil Puppet Shadow!
Chu Xuan grunted, using the force of the recoil to dash out of the mist and escape swiftly.
"Iron Thread Mountain is very dangerous, not sothing I can contend with right now."
"Indeed, it's ti to lay low on Ocean Blue Star for a while."
Chu Xuan looked at the swirling mist, shook his head, and imdiately fled far away.
...
Ocean Blue Star.
Chu Xuan once again sat cross-legged within the grand formation.
He seed like the eye of a storm.
All the Yin Evil Qi within the formation converged towards him.
"Not enough, still not enough."
"Even with such a massive amount of Yin Evil Qi as support, it requires painstaking effort to continue advancing."
"The root cause is still my diocre aptitude."
Chu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.
He had long known that his aptitude wasn't good.
Spirit roots are divided into lower, middle, upper, and supre grades.
Above supre spirit roots are Earth Spirit Roots and Heavenly Spirit Roots.
Those are rare prodigies.
Looking across the entire Yu Kingdom, Chu Xuan had only heard of a supre fire spirit root seedling erging four hundred years ago.
Originally ant to be taken by the Divine Gang Sect, the Southern Yue Kingdom's Burning Heaven Sect intervened halfway and snatched away the supre fire spirit root seedling.
Because of this, the Divine Gang Sect has always been at odds with the Burning Heaven Sect.
Chu Xuan's spirit root was rely a middle-grade wood-biased spirit root, more suitable for cultivating wood attribute techniques.
The reason he could have "astonishing" cultivation speed was entirely due to the significant ti flow difference between the Cangxuan World and Ocean Blue Star.
While others thought he had only cultivated for a month, he had actually been diligently cultivating for ten months!
Chu Xuan suddenly rembered sothing.
"Cultivators have sothing called a spiritual body in addition to spirit roots."
"Both spirit roots and spiritual bodies are innate, but they can be compensated for after birth."
"However, to compensate for a spirit root, one must at least reach the Golden Elixir stage."
"For , cultivating an acquired spiritual body is the best thod."
"So demonic arts and secret techniques can extract soone else's spiritual body and graft it onto oneself."
"Alternatively, one could use so inhumane thods, blood-sacrificing a large number of living beings to recreate an acquired spiritual body."
Chu Xuan pondered.
This was a thod.
The Blood Fiend Demon Refining Manual contained thods to recreate acquired spiritual bodies.
However, the conditions were extrely harsh.
Previously, Chu Xuan hadn't planned to consider it, but now, since he needed to speed up his cultivation, he had to prioritize this matter.
"The Blood Fiend Demon Refining Manual contains thods for recreating three types of acquired spiritual bodies."
"The first is the Ice Drinking Spiritual Body. It requires drinking ice attribute spiritual substances daily, preferably while cultivating in an extrely cold environnt. After three months, the Ice Drinking Spiritual Body can be achieved."
"Once achieved, every move will be accompanied by ice."
"The second is the Red Blood Spiritual Body. It requires soaking in the blood of Foundation Establishnt stage demonic beasts for forty-nine days, changing to a new demonic beast's blood every day."
"Once achieved, blood circulation speeds up, greatly enhancing the power of body cultivation techniques for close combat."
"The third is the Evil Wood Spiritual Body. It requires consuming wood attribute spiritual substances every three days, a total of thirty-three tis, to achieve the Evil Wood Spiritual Body."
"Once achieved, wound healing speed increases significantly, physical defense improves, and there is the ability to control trees."
Chu Xuan pondered repeatedly.
He quickly ruled out the Ice Drinking Spiritual Body and the Red Blood Spiritual Body.
Though the Ice Drinking Spiritual Body was good, its attribute didn't match his, and extrely cold substances were hard to find.
The Red Blood Spiritual Body was even less feasible.
Where could he find forty-nine types of Foundation Establishnt stage demonic beast blood now?
Instead, the Evil Wood Spiritual Body matched his attributes, and the thod wasn't difficult.
He just didn't know if Ocean Blue Star had wood attribute spiritual substances.
"It seems I need to spend so ti searching."
Chu Xuan imdiately stood up, riding the Heavenly Force Flying Sword and disappearing without a trace.
...
On the outskirts of East Lake City.
Three strange mushroom n fell to the ground.
They twitched a few tis before stopping completely.
Wang Gangjian and Tang Jinchuan took several deep breaths, their tense muscles finally relaxing slightly.
Wang Gangjian glanced at the skinny Tang Jinchuan and smiled wryly.
"Old Tang, your body fat isn't enough anymore."
Tang Jinchuan shuddered, "The mushroom n are too resilient. I threw several spears, and they still didn't die."
"This body fat can't even form a few long spears."
Wang Gangjian waved his hand.
The survivors waiting nearby imdiately rushed forward.
They doused the three mushroom n with gasoline and set them on fire.
The flas burned fiercely.
The corpses crackled.
There seed to be faint screams.
Wang Gangjian and Tang Jinchuan watched the corpses turn to charcoal, falling silent.
These three corpses had been three young n from the Black Edge Security Company not long ago.
Reliable and loyal.
In just one day, they had been turned into terrifying mushroom n.
All Wang Gangjian, Tang Jinchuan, and the other Transcendents could do now was burn their bodies to ensure the dreadful "mushroomization" wouldn't spread to others.
At this mont, another figure drove up.
The person who got out was Wang Gangjian's cousin, Wang Yong.
Wang Gangjian's face lit up with joy, and he imdiately asked in a low voice, "Did you make contact?"
Wang Yong shook his head, "No contact, and I got so bad news."
Wang Gangjian's expression turned grim, "Tell ."
Wang Yong lowered his voice to the minimum, "So kind folks from the Boat Gang told about it."
"Longjiang City has been completely mushroomized, Ye Nantian is missing, and only Xiong Xing survived among the four commanders."
"The Linjiang Army... has fallen apart."
Wang Gangjian's face turned ashen.
He couldn't have imagined that in just over a month since the mushrooms appeared, the situation had deteriorated to this extent.
Even the Linjiang Army's base camp, Longjiang City, had turned into a mushroom city.
Linjiang General Ye Nantian, a powerful level-four Transcendent, was also missing!
"I..."
Wang Gangjian wanted to speak but found himself on the verge of collapse.
Wang Yong and Tang Jinchuan quickly supported him.
Wang Yong said in a deep voice, "Brother, we can turn to the Boat Gang. I heard they temporarily repelled a group of mushroom n, maybe they have a solution."
Wang Gangjian smiled bitterly.
The Boat Gang and the Linjiang Army had never gotten along well.
He was a retired veteran of the Linjiang Army, and Black Edge had a strong Linjiang Army influence.
Now, turning to the Boat Gang, would they agree?
"Boss, I suggest we try to find the Immortal again today."
Tang Jinchuan said earnestly, "The Linjiang Army is no longer organized, our only hope is that Immortal."
"If once or twice doesn't work, then three or four tis."
"Sincerity can move mountains!"
"Whatever the Immortal wants, we'll give it to him!"
Wang Gangjian sighed, "I'm just afraid... the Immortal won't care for our offerings."
When you're just trying to make great content at .
"Alright, let's try both the Boat Gang and the Immortal."
"Wang Yong, you go to the Boat Gang."
"Old Tang, let's go to the Haotai Hotel together, we must persuade the Immortal."
