Forget it, I'll apologize after I get back safely. Lu Ming thought so, and then he took out a sharp knife from the space, gritted his teeth and cut his finger, and the blood quickly filled the air along with the bloody smell.
Sure enough, the beasts smelled the blood and roared more frantically, speeding up and running towards Lu Ming's position. Lu Ming hurriedly used his spiritual energy to run to the fork in the road on the other side, taking out a strangely shaped talisman from his arms while running.
This talisman is called the Substitute Talisman, which can transform an object around into its own appearance, and the real body is transferred to another place, so that it can completely escape from this trouble. However, the materials for the Substitute Talisman are very difficult to find. There are almost no flowers and plants in Kun-Lai that can make the Substitute Talisman. In the end, Lu Ming had to ask someone to go to the medicinal material market and wait for several months before he finally found a seller. This little bit of material almost cost him most of his savings.
Moreover, the chance of success in making this substitute talisman was not high, and all the materials were used up to make only this one, so that it could be used in such a situation. He never fought a battle without confidence, and if he was not 100% sure that he would be fine, he would definitely not go to die like this.
After Lu Ming sent his spiritual consciousness towards the direction where everyone was fleeing, he found that everyone had already run away for hundreds of meters. Only then did he feel relieved and prepared to tear open the talisman and escape.
But at this moment, a snow-white spirit bird suddenly jumped out from behind and flew towards Luming at a very fast speed. In just a blink of an eye, the spirit bird flew to Luming's side and took the talisman in his hand away with its mouth. It flew around Luming twice, with a very proud expression, and deliberately swayed in front of Luming, obviously showing off its ability.
Lu Ming's expression changed drastically. He looked at the bad bird in front of him with gritted teeth, glared at it angrily, and looked at the herd of beasts chasing him from behind.
The beasts seemed to have never seen a living person before. They were very curious about the new creatures. Their eyes were shining with bloodthirsty green light, their mouths were wide open, and saliva was dripping from time to time. A big hole was immediately burned on the ground. Lu Ming was terrified. There were dozens of these beasts, and each of them was extremely huge. Even their saliva was extremely corrosive. If they were caught up, they would probably end up with nothing left.
Lu Ming took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and ran forward. 233 seemed to have noticed the current situation, and with a little anxiety in his voice, he sent a message to him: "Master, with your current strength, you can't deal with so many monsters at all, and the materials for the substitute talisman are gone. What should I do now?"
Lu Ming pondered for a moment, and then said: "The only solution now is to catch the spirit bird and take back the substitute talisman."
233 said: "The Spirit Bird is the smartest beast in the Shuize Secret Realm. Whether or not you can catch it is not important. The spiritual energy consumed by the magic weapon to catch the Spirit Bird is enormous. Moreover, if you take back the talisman later, will you have enough spiritual energy to use it successfully?"
Lu Ming said helplessly: "There is no other way. Let's do this for now. You will direct me to catch the bird."
233 responded, and Lu Ming took out a net-shaped magic weapon from the space. Lu Ming silently recited a few mantras, and the net immediately expanded several times.
The spirit bird seemed to have discovered this strange net. It flapped its wings a few times, cried a few times in disdain, and darted around Lu Ming flexibly, which made Lu Ming furious. He was actually despised by a bird. If he caught this bird later, he would definitely roast it and eat it.
Under the command of 233, Lu Ming took the giant net and rushed towards the spirit bird. The bird was very smart, dodging here and there, very agile. More than half an hour passed, and Lu Ming ran and caught it breathlessly, but he didn't touch even a feather, but he had used up most of his spirit energy. The spirit bird was obviously interested and kept following Lu Ming, looking like it was playing with it.
Lu Ming looked at the spirit bird with a headache, and then glanced at the giant beast that was still persevering in pursuing him. He suddenly felt like crying but had no tears. It was true that plans were not as good as changes. Something that was obviously foolproof turned out to be a problem in the middle of the process. Now he was in a dilemma and had himself trapped in it.
233 shouted hurriedly: "Master, southeast direction, quick!"
Hearing this, Lu Ming's body was several times faster than his brain, and he quickly threw the net in his hand. The spirit bird was tired from playing with Lu Ming just now, so he temporarily relaxed his vigilance. He didn't expect that he would be caught because of his carelessness. It flapped its wings and chirped a few times dejectedly, scratching the net that trapped it with its claws desperately, but it couldn't break free at all. It hung its head and whined softly, looking really pitiful.
Lu Ming had no intention of sympathizing with it. He glanced coldly at the stinky bird, pulled the substitute talisman out of its mouth from the net, and said lightly: "You are using your life to tell others that if you don't commit suicide, you won't die."
The spirit bird seemed to understand Lu Ming's words, and it flapped its wings slowly and called a few times. Lu Ming was afraid that it would summon all the other spirit birds, so he immediately threw it into the space and locked it up. Then he took a deep breath and tore open the substitute spell with force.
As the talisman was torn apart, a huge force suddenly rushed towards Lu Ming. Before he could react, his body was pulled away by the powerful force, and then he lost consciousness and fell into a coma.
★★★
When Lu Ming woke up, he found himself in a huge cave.
He opened his confused eyes and looked around. Except for a few scattered boulders not far away, the cave was almost covered with purple-blue flowers. From a distance, it looked like a sea of purple flowers. What was more peculiar was that from time to time, bright yellow star-shaped lights emerged from the flowers, then slowly rose and floated around the cave. Although the light was weak, it was enough to see the environment inside the cave clearly.
Lu Ming frowned and thought for a moment. Why did this scene that only appeared in romance novels seem more and more familiar the more he looked at it?
Lu Ming stood up and turned around twice, his brain working rapidly, until he walked to the middle of the cave and saw a clear spring emitting a dark luster, Lu Ming finally reacted. He had accidentally come to the place where Sang Wusheng cured Shen Yanyan of the evil spirit poison.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming couldn't help but stiffen all over and looked around cautiously. Could he have ruined someone else's good thing without realizing it?
Lu Ming used his spiritual consciousness to explore various parts of the cave and found that there was no sign of any human being around, and that no one had ever set foot here. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Lu Ming concentrated his spiritual energy in the palm of his hand, but found that his spiritual energy was lost severely and he could hardly use any spells. After thinking about it, he thought it was probably because he had over-consumed it by using the substitute talisman just now.
Lu Ming thought about it and simply sat cross-legged in the cave, waiting for the spiritual energy to recover. If he went out rashly now, he might encounter other dangers, so it would be better to wait and see. Besides, if nothing unexpected happened, Jing Mo should be able to find his location soon.
Lu Ming closed his eyes and was about to regulate his breathing and the circulation of spiritual energy in his body, when he suddenly felt a slight tingling sensation at his fingertips. Lu Ming opened his eyes and saw a small dark red flying insect resting on his finger, and the tingling sensation was immediately and clearly conveyed.
Lu Ming raised his hand, and the flying insect was immediately frightened, leaving his finger and flapping its wings to fly away. Lu Ming held his finger in his mouth and sucked it for a while, and there was no abnormality in his body, so of course he didn't take this little thing to heart.
Time passed by, but Lu Ming's spiritual energy did not enter his body at all. Lu Ming felt a little uneasy, this was not normal. Logically speaking, the spiritual energy in the Shuize Secret Realm was the most abundant, and the absorption speed would only increase and not slow down. Moreover, in order to speed up the return of spiritual energy, Lu Ming even swallowed the pills that he rarely took on weekdays, just to make the spiritual energy return faster, but unfortunately it did not go as he wished. Lu Ming wondered if it was because of this cave that he was sober. It seems that he still has to get out.
Lu Ming did not suspect anything, so he stood up and prepared to leave. But after a few steps, his legs suddenly weakened, and he fell to the ground unexpectedly. Lu Ming was shocked and wanted to get up, but he found that all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away in an instant, and he did not have the strength to stand up at all.
Then, a strange yet familiar feeling suddenly came over him, and his body inexplicably began to heat up. Lu Ming panted and forced himself to calm down, but he found that he could not suppress the increasingly clear desire in his body. It was like a tiny flame, which grew stronger with the continuous wind, making him feel as if he was burning in a raging fire, almost burning all his rationality.
He pulled at the front of his shirt and pressed his body against the ground. The cold touch made Lu Ming moan inwardly. But he soon found that doing so would only put him in a more difficult dilemma. His fair body gradually turned red. The coldness made him feel more clearly his pain that was difficult to relieve and his constant desire.
A suppressed low moan continued to flow out of his mouth, echoing more clearly in the quiet cave. Lu Ming bit his lower lip tightly with some shame, and his face showed an abnormal red. Lu Ming used all his strength to turn over, propped his legs on the ground, tilted his head back, and clasped the soil on the ground with both hands, as if only in this way could he relieve some of the pain. Unfortunately, this sudden desire came so violently that Lu Ming was so flustered that he didn't know what to do. His breathing became heavier and heavier, and his heart was beating like a drum.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" A sudden voice suddenly sounded in the quiet cave.
After Jing Mo sent everyone to a safe place and settled them down, he immediately followed Lu Ming's scent all the way to this cave. The anger and rage in his heart disappeared in an instant when he saw Lu Ming.
Jing Mo looked at the young man who was groaning in pain not far away. His legs, which were about to get closer to him, suddenly stopped. He just stared at him in a daze, without blinking, while his breathing suddenly tightened.
Just a few steps ahead, a handsome young man was lying on his back. His clothes were almost torn off, revealing his fair body. His smooth shoulders and slender chest were slightly red, and his long legs were bent weakly. The other party seemed to have sensed someone approaching, and slowly turned his head to look at where Jing Mo was.
Lu Ming's eyes were filled with tears because of the pain, and they slowly fell from the corners of his eyes. His cheeks were abnormally red, and his lips were bleeding from being bitten by his teeth, making them look even redder. When Lu Ming saw clearly that the person coming was his younger brother, he was slightly relieved. His voice became hoarse because of desire, as if he was trying hard to suppress something, and he whispered to the other party: "Jing Mo..."
Jing Mo's brain suddenly made a loud rumble. This shout aroused all his desires in an instant, and his remaining rationality completely collapsed. He could no longer suppress his inner impulse, walked quickly towards Lu Ming, lowered his head and kissed Lu Ming's plump lips hard.
