Chapter 120 Good News

Although it was difficult to discern directions in the gray fog, with the upgraded spirit plant Xianxian and the demon beast Long Batian, Achen and his companions hardly took any detours.

When passing through the territory of the Holy Witch Clan, Achen told the others to return to Five Elements City first, while he decided to send the little cypress to his sister.

The Holy Witch Clan's territory is now not far from the area ravaged by the gray fog. Ah Chen estimated the distance between the two sides and was filled with worry.

Upon seeing her son, Yu Shan was somewhat surprised.

"Ah Chen, what brings you here? I heard that Shifang Academy had already closed its entrances and exits and activated its defensive array?"

"Yes, but this time, we asked the dean to approve our leave before we came out."

"Because I have important information, I paused for a moment. Once I've explained things clearly, I'll return to the academy immediately," said Achen.

After telling his mother all the information he had gained from entering the gray fog, he took out a small selaginella plant that he had temporarily planted in a flowerpot from his miniature spiritual plant garden.

Xiao Bai brought her precious daughter to see her son, and A Chen specially carried a flowerpot with a small juniper planted in it and waved it in front of Xi'er.

Unfortunately, neither Xi'er nor her two iridescent butterflies showed the slightest interest in the little cypress.

The clone of the Demon Plant Emperor Lan Ruo even showed strong dissatisfaction with it.

Although Achen couldn't understand the language of plants, the dark blue bead with two small colorful butterflies suddenly floated out when Chu Liuyun approached Xi'er with the flowerpot in his arms, and ruthlessly smashed the flowerpot.

Xi'er clapped her hands and giggled. Two iridescent butterflies flew out and circled around her. Of the three, neither of them bothered to pay attention to the little cypress that had fallen to the ground.

The poor little cypress shivered and curled up into a ball.

Helpless, Ah Chen had no choice but to take another flowerpot, plant it, and place it in his portable miniature spiritual plant garden.

Seeing this, Yu Shan couldn't help but chuckle: "This demonic plant king clone next to Xi'er is really domineering. It seems that with it around, no other plant can get close to Xi'er."

Your aunt Lele also had a hard time balancing the two mutated plants in her body; she is not suitable for contracting with demonic plants.

I also have this Sacred Moon Lotus here, so it's impossible for me to contract with any other plants.

This little juniper should be at least a clone of a seventh-level juniper, something that others would beg for but can't even get their hands on, yet now it's fallen to the point where it can't even be given away.

"Alright, alright, Ah Chen, you take it with you."

Helpless, Ah Chen could only, with the help of the feather fan, make a contract with the little juniper. Since he had decided to take it away from that desolate place, he would take care of it from then on.

Ah Chen named the little cypress "Ah Heng," meaning "eternal," because the cypress has such a strong vitality.

Actually, he would have preferred to call it "Immortal," but the name "Immortal" was too grand and would easily attract covetousness.

Achen made a contract with Little Selaginella Aheng, and Aheng was overjoyed, as it still liked Achen the most.

When Ah Chen and his group found it, it was already on the verge of collapse.

There were several people in the group, but none of them were willing to take it in. Only Ah Chen took pity on it and transplanted it into a flowerpot to take it out.

A small juniper branched off and wrapped around his wrist, disguised as a bracelet.

It looks like it's made of ordinary gray-green jade beads, and it's not particularly eye-catching.

Ah Chen didn't mind its appearance and poked it with his finger, saying, "Ah Heng, from now on we're partners. Let's work together to drive away the Little Demon Clan!"

The gray-green beads twitched a few times, conveying their agreement to him.

Aheng also deeply resented the Ximo Clan. If they hadn't created the gray mist to devour the spiritual energy of the Qiyan Mountains, its main body wouldn't have died, and its companions, whom it had watched grow up, wouldn't have died either.

"Mom, Dad, please be careful!" Achen said goodbye with reluctance.

"Don't worry, your godmother, Madam Xuan, is trying to use the most corrosion-resistant rock dragon skin and the silk of the Five Poisonous Demon Spider to refine an outer robe that can resist the erosion of the gray fog."

If the experiment is successful, one of these robes will be distributed to every member of the tribe.

"She will also reveal the refining method to the public at that time, and I believe that more people in the Misty Heaven Realm will join the fight against the Gray Mist and the Fine Demon Clan," Feather Fan comforted him.

This news was indeed very exciting for Achen, as he had limited experience with the Gray Mist and the Fine Demon Clan in the past.

Based on the information available to everyone, they are believed to be without weaknesses and invincible.

However, after this trip through the gray fog, Achen has discovered some weaknesses of the Fine Demon Clan.

Even if they activate their invincible state, as long as their attack speed is fast enough and their attack power is strong enough, the Demon Clan will not have the energy to devour the cultivator's spiritual power.

Furthermore, the Fine Demons are symbiotic beings of plants and animals. Their plant-like nature slows down their movement speed, while their animal-like nature gives them controllable parts.

Furthermore, as long as you use ropes or weapons that do not contain spiritual power to deal with them, they will not be able to absorb the spiritual power of the other party for their own use.

Achen casually drew a short-distance teleportation array and returned to the academy.

With a leave slip specially approved by the dean, he successfully entered the academy.

As soon as the dean heard the news of his return, he immediately had someone take him to the dean's office.

At this moment, the department heads of the academy were all in the office.

"Ah Chen, you're here. We've compiled the information Meng Hanhai and Nie Xiaoxiao brought back. Take a look and see if there's anything else you can add?" The dean beckoned to him kindly.

Ah Chen looked at it and, finding nothing to add, asked, "Dean, are you planning to release all this information?"

“Yes, this is a battle that requires the participation of all residents of the Misty Heaven Realm. No one can stand idly by unless they have the ability to escape this realm and cross star fields to find a new interface to survive,” the Dean said.

"Oh, right, I have one more piece of information to add." Ah Chen quickly informed the dean about the outer robe his mother had mentioned.

Although this matter has not yet been successful, he believes the world needs some encouraging good news to boost morale.

Sure enough, everyone in the office was excited. Zhan Tiangong, the head of the weapon crafting department, said:

"Ah Chen, could you introduce me to this Madam Xuan? Perhaps I can offer her some assistance in weapon crafting?"

"Really? With your help, Master Battle Instructor, I believe the crafting speed of this anti-fog battle robe will be much faster!" Achen said excitedly.

He immediately sent a telepathic message to Madam Xuan, who, upon hearing the news, decided to come to the academy in person.

After all, the academy's weapon crafting department has a complete range of weapon crafting materials, and all kinds of auxiliary material recipes are readily available.

With the assistance of the mentor, the experiment will be much more convenient.

However, Madam Xuan had already communicated with Instructor Zhan before coming. After the experiment on the anti-gray fog battle robe was successful, it could be shared with him, and even with all the weapon refiners in the Misty Heaven Realm.

However, there is a prerequisite: the distribution of resources to the Holy Witch Clan must be prioritized.

She got along very well with the Holy Witch Clan during this time, and the battle robe was inspired by them. Thanks to the experimental materials they provided free of charge, she made some progress.

The battle instructor naturally had no objection to this condition, since as long as he could obtain the formula, he could refine more anti-fog battle robes.

He even had a bold idea: if the material could be replaced with something else that was relatively cheap, then he could even wrap the entire academy in this material.

While the weapon crafting department was working day and night to experiment with anti-gray fog battle robes, Achen and his team gathered some relatively strong students and entered the gray fog once again.

They want to capture as many yellow and green demons as possible before the blue and purple demons invade in large numbers.

To gain more useful information and improve one's ability to deal with subtle demons.
