Chapter 256: After Sui Qi sorted out all the supplies, Xu Hui also found...

After sorting out all the supplies, Xu Hui also found items that were useful for the current situation.

She carefully took out the water spiritual power talisman, activated it with her spiritual power, threw it into the air, and quickly retreated to the corner to hide her figure.

Talismans are completely different from disposable talisman paper. As long as they are kept intact, they can be used unlimited times.

Although the price is high, compared with those talismans that are thrown away after use, talisman treasures are undoubtedly more cost-effective.

Since the genius Jing Zhihe ascended to heaven, the Jing family has been able to produce a few talismans every year, but the quantity is so rare that the price is quite shocking.

But Wei Mubai still exchanged for more than a dozen of the top-grade Qi-replenishing pills and the top-grade rejuvenation pills. One of the sets happened to be the five-element talismans of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which matched her five chaotic spiritual roots, so he gave them all to her.

He gave two to Wei Muyan, kept one for himself, and gave the remaining ones to Wei Muheng.

Xu Hui felt that the talismans were very precious, and that the five elements talismans could form a five elements formation, exerting extraordinary power, which was definitely a powerful weapon.

But she won't be able to use it for a while.

Xu Hui has her own spiritual sword and various magical instruments. She kept these talismans, which are both expensive and powerful, separately and placed them in the system space, occupying a grid. This makes it convenient for her to take them out and use them immediately when needed.

And at present, a water spirit power talisman is enough.

In fact, in another grid, she also collected a batch of high-level talismans.

However, the talisman needs to be activated by one's own spiritual power, although it can exert ten times or even a hundred times the power with the expansion of the talisman array and runes.

However, Xu Hui's spiritual power recovery speed has slowed down and cannot withstand the consumption of the talisman.

In comparison, talismans are much easier to use.

Once activated, it will autonomously absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and continuously launch attacks unless the surrounding spiritual energy is completely exhausted and can no longer be absorbed.

She had just tried it. Although this fire dragon was powerful, it could be extinguished by water with spiritual power. It was not one of those strange fires that could not be extinguished.

But there are too many fire dragons, they are densely packed together, and the area is too large. Only a large-scale spiritual rain can completely extinguish them.

After activating the talisman, Xu Hui immediately set up several defensive formations on the spirit sword to isolate it from everything outside.

The talisman was thrown into the air, bursting out with a strong light, and then spun rapidly, creating a small vortex, madly devouring the surrounding spiritual power.

When the spiritual power formed thick clouds, a heavy rain poured down from the sky. The water droplets formed into a line and hit the wanton fire dragon.

The rich water spiritual power in the raindrops collided with the fire spiritual power of the fire dragon, and immediately a cloud of steaming mist was poured out.

Faintly, Xu Hui heard the low, sharp wailing of insects from the sound of dripping water.

She immediately realized something was wrong, and using her spiritual power to focus her ears and eyes, she listened carefully. Sure enough, it was indeed the cries of dying insects.

Looking closely, I found that there were tiny insects crawling and hiding on the gray-brown ground, as if they were very afraid of the heavy rain falling from the sky.

But the rain was like a waterfall, not only hitting every inch of land, but also quickly gathering into small puddles on the ground.

The moist soil is quite unfriendly to the insects, and they have no way to avoid it, so they can only die wailing under the spiritual rain.

Soon, groups of insect corpses gathered on the ground and in the puddles, densely packed and stacked in layers. They were very small, but their number was astonishing.

Could it be that those fire dragons were emitted by them?

How could such a small body spit out a fire dragon with such incredible power?

Xu Hui was puzzled and used her spiritual power to catch a few of them. She found that they looked a bit like crayfish, but were smaller than mosquitoes. They could not fly, but they moved extremely quickly.

There was no fire spiritual power in his body. Could it be that she guessed wrong?

Xu Hui thought about it and tried it with her spiritual power. The little bug sensed the danger and immediately spewed out fire.

Xu Hui was startled and quickly threw it out. Under the rain, the insects and the fire disappeared together, turning into an undetectable mist.

wrong!

Xu Hui’s eyes widened immediately. How could there be visible mist in such a continuous rainy environment?

Even if there is, we have to wait until the clouds stop and the rain stops, right?

She immediately carefully investigated and found that there was a gray substance hidden in the water mist. It was this gray substance that made the water mist linger after the fire was extinguished, forming a bunch of light and strange things.

Xu Hui had a bad feeling in her heart and she couldn't let these gray balls connect into a line.

He immediately cast a spell to retrieve the talisman, and the heavy rain in the sky stopped immediately. The air was filled with thick water vapor, but it was not a fresh scent, but a smell that made her extremely uncomfortable.

Without the protection of the spiritual rain, this feeling became even stronger.

What made her frown even more was that there was also a problem with the talisman in her hand. Compared with the clear and transparent jade slip before, there was now a layer of light gray substance attached to the surface of the talisman.

In fact, the gray color was very light, and it would be difficult to detect if Xu Hui's physique was not different from that of ordinary people.

And now she has figured out that it is the unknown gray substance attached to the spiritual power of this place.

Unexpectedly, it was not only detrimental to her absorption of spiritual power, but it could also absorb spiritual power along with the talisman and contaminate the objects.

She immediately checked the defensive magic weapons and saw a similar gray layer on the outermost one.

This is trouble!

This gray substance is obviously not a good thing, but it is everywhere in the air and spiritual power, and even in various objects and living things here.

This means that many of her things will become disposable.

Xu Hui frowned and tried to remove the gray substance attached to the talisman, but with little success. This gray substance could dissolve in spiritual energy and obviously had a natural resistance to spiritual attacks.

After pondering for a moment, she decided to try to use the power of vitality to fight these ominous things.

As a half-unicorn, she has an instinctive aversion to ominous things, and such ominous things are often afraid of things that are extremely yang or full of vitality.

Xu Hui closed her eyes and carefully explored the plants farther away, trying to extract a trace of life from them.

During this process, we were extremely cautious, fearing that the gray matter would take the opportunity to get entangled.

Fortunately, she succeeded.

The moment those gray substances came into contact with the force of vitality, it was as if they had encountered their natural enemy. They disappeared without a trace and had no power to resist at all.

But Xu Hui was not happy about this.

She found the vitality here incredibly difficult to extract. The tree before her, tall and lush, was clearly thousands of years old. It stood to reason that extracting a large amount of vitality wouldn't have much of an impact on it.

But when she extracted only a small ball of vitality the size of a fingernail, the big tree quickly withered and then rotted, the speed was so fast that it was jaw-dropping.

What shocked her even more was that more gray matter rose from the rotten wood, the amount even exceeding that produced by the dead insects.

She couldn't help but gaze into the distance. She saw that although the trees all over the mountains looked vigorous and lush, could it be that they had been infected by life and had become "showpieces" that were about to wither and rot?

If this is true, how much gray matter will be produced once all the trees in such a large forest rot?

This thought made Xu Hui feel a little nervous.

This made her dare not to drain the vitality from the plants anymore. The more vitality she drained away, the faster the plants would rot and the thicker the concentration of gray matter in the air would become.

Without plant life, it would be very difficult for her to deal with these gray substances.

This is simply a vicious cycle!

Xu Hui frowned and divided the small ball of vitality into two balls, which were used to disperse the gray matter on the talismans and defensive magic weapons. It was just right, not more and not less.

This is all thanks to the help of the plant spirits, she has become more and more precise in controlling the power of vitality, otherwise she would not be able to do it without wasting even a single bit.

She now has limited equipment and cannot waste any of it. She doesn't know how much danger will come next.

After putting her things away, she quickly left the area, not looking at the pile of insect corpses below, and rushed forward on her sword.

After about a few hours, I could no longer see those annoying things, and I was also away from the gray matter visible to the naked eye.

After finding a safe place, he checked the spirit sword and the formation again and discovered that there was also a layer of light gray on the spirit sword. On the contrary, the formation was made of spiritual power, so when the spiritual power dissipated, the gray fog naturally dissipated as well, and the formation plate was intact.

However, because it requires the use of spiritual power, the defense of the formation cannot block the gray matter. For safety, she must use magic tools inside the formation to add an additional layer of defense.

What is going on?

Xu Hui sighed deeply and decided to find a place to meditate and practice, at least to recover some strength, and it would be even better if he could heal his injuries.

Unfortunately, this dangerous place did not let her get what she wanted. As soon as she stopped, she heard a tiger roar that shook the earth, and the birds in the mountains and forests fled in all directions.

A huge tiger beast rushed out from the depths of the dense forest like a flash of lightning. Its body was huge but agile, and the mottled stripes on its fur flashed a heart-pounding cold light in the sunlight.

Every step he took was accompanied by a heavy tremor on the ground, as if the sky was about to collapse and the earth was about to collapse.

The tiger beast was breathing heavily and rapidly. As it ran quickly, the surrounding trees fell down one after another, branches and leaves flew everywhere, and dust rose up, forming a chaotic storm.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and the huge tiger beast swooped down like a moving mountain with unstoppable momentum.

Xu Hui's eyes narrowed instantly. Without any hesitation, she immediately mobilized the spiritual power in her body and poured it into the spiritual sword. Then she flashed and soared into the sky.

But she ultimately underestimated the tiger's speed and strength.

A tiger paw, covering the entire sky and the sun, descended from the sky like a mountain, and slammed heavily on her head.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, a surge of air came rushing in like a tidal wave, pressing her back to the ground from mid-air.

At this moment, Xu Hui had only one thought in her mind: My life is in danger!

She had already guessed where this place was, and it was precisely because she had guessed it that she felt so desperate.
