Without spiritual power, it is impossible to activate the talisman. It is like having explosives in hand but no fire. It is so tragic.
"There is soul-restoring liquid in the purple purse around my waist. Take out a bottle and drink it." Xue Huan said in a somewhat unstable voice while defending against the tentacles' attack.
Soul-restoring liquid? Could it be a magical medicine that can bring spiritual power to the dantian after drinking it?
Just as Zong Quan was about to take off the purse from Xue Huan's waist, a piercing gaze shot over at him. It was "Nan Tang". His hand suddenly froze in mid-air.
He thought that Brother Nan's possessiveness towards Miss Mo was extremely strong. He was just trying to free her purse and had no intention of taking advantage of Miss Mo.
Pei Ji threw him a bottle of soul-restoring liquid, without looking at him again, continued to kill the tentacles, and steadily advanced towards the meat ball.
Zong Quan picked up the soul-restoring liquid, just pulled out the cork, and before he could drink it, a tentacle suddenly appeared from nowhere, wrapped around him and dragged him away.
The worst thing was that the vines wrapped around his waist were corroded and dissolved by the tentacles at some point.
"Save me--" he shouted subconsciously.
"Hold on, I'll go save him!" Xue Huan said to Pei Ji without turning her head. A vine shot out from her fingertips, wrapped around Zong Quan's feet, and accelerated towards him.
The bright blade flashed by, and the tentacles that were entangled with Zong Quan were cut off by her with one knife.
She grabbed the vines and pulled him back, but Zongquan was already unconscious. She slapped a Vajra Talisman on him and put him aside.
Pei Ji rushed over and stood back to back with her to deal with the tentacles that could not be cut off.
This won't work. Sooner or later, they will run out of spiritual power/vital energy and physical strength. However, the tentacles of the meat ball seem to be endless and can regenerate even if they are cut off.
Pei Ji said, "Huanhuan, I'm going to deal with its main body, be careful."
"You too." Xue Huan said in a deep voice, tightening her grip on the Snowflake Knife.
The meatball seemed to have seen through Pei Ji's purpose and mobilized more tentacles to attack him. They were so dense that there was no place for him to step.
If there was no road, Pei Ji would use his sword to forcibly create a path!
Although those tentacles can regenerate after being cut off, it still takes some time to regenerate, and the longer it takes, the longer it takes to regenerate the tentacles. It is estimated that it was injured after being cut off so many times, and its ability to recover blood was reduced, which gave Pei Ji an opportunity.
He had already rushed through before the tentacles regenerated.
Pei Ji walked all the way to the meat ball. His eyes were cold and the murderous intent around him seemed to be tangible. The sword in his hand seemed to be slowly but actually swung towards the meat ball very quickly, leaving a trail of afterimage.
A very thin blood mark appeared on the meat ball, and then the whole meat ball split open. However, before Pei Ji could breathe a sigh of relief, the two halves of the meat ball actually healed and grew into a new meat ball.
"Hmm..." The two balls of flesh made a duet that sounded like crying but not crying, which made people feel sick.
Pei Ji originally thought that the meat ball was the main body of this thing and that splitting it in half would kill it, but he didn't expect that it could also regenerate!
If I chop it with another sword, will the two meat balls become three?
Thinking of this, Pei Ji couldn't help but feel that the situation was tricky.
More tentacles surrounded him from all directions, trapping him inside. Even if he cut off the tentacles in front, another batch of tentacles would quickly come up from the back, making it impossible to kill them all!
On the other side, Xue Huan had to take care of the unconscious Zong Quan and kill the tentacles. Her physical strength had been greatly depleted. Seeing Pei Ji being completely submerged by the tentacles, her heart sank.
This damn disgusting thing!
She quickly drank a bottle of soul-restoring liquid, and the spiritual power in her body was output crazily, all poured into the blade. Her pair of cold, fire-quenched eyes stared fiercely at the waving tentacles in front of her, and she slashed it down with one blow!
The flames on the blade became intense, and in an instant, everything in sight was reduced to ashes.
The remaining tentacles shrunk back and hovered around her from a distance, watching her intently, but not daring to get close.
Xue Huan held a knife and strode towards the place where Pei Ji was submerged. Wherever she passed, the tentacles retreated, but they were unwilling to give up and surrounded her again after she passed.
Suddenly, the huge sphere wrapped in tentacles suddenly burst into an ice-blue cold light, and then the tentacles were quickly frozen. With a click, the entire sphere shattered.
Pei Ji walked out holding a sword.
Xue Huan breathed a sigh of relief and ran forward, "Are you okay?"
Looking at her, Pei Ji's stern brows melted away instantly, becoming as gentle as a spring breeze. He held her in his arms with one hand and sniffed deeply at her hair. "It's okay, Huanhuan, don't worry."
Xue Huan was about to ask if the lump of flesh had been resolved when she suddenly felt a chill on her forehead. It was Pei Ji's lips falling down.
However, for some reason, her body suddenly felt an extremely strong sense of rejection, and a voice in her heart told her to push him away!
But she moved her hands, but couldn't lift them up, as if they were filled with lead.
"Hanhuan!"
Pei Ji's voice came from behind, revealing endless worry in his shock and anger.
Why was Pei Ji behind her? Who was holding her now?
A creepy shudder came over Xue Huan. She looked up and her pupils suddenly shrank. The one holding her was not Pei Ji, but a tentacle!
At this moment, the suction cup at the top of the tentacle was attached to her forehead.
Then, everything went dark before her eyes and she knew nothing.
*
Xue Huan suddenly opened her eyes, but a sense of horror still lingered in her mind, as if she had just had a terrible nightmare.
However, she could not remember the content of the dream at all, only a vague impression remained.
She sat up in bed and was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her.
Where is this?
She wasn't—
In...? Wait, why can't she remember?
This palace-like bedroom in front of me, sparkling with gold and glitter, is it where she lives?
Why does it feel so strange?
Xue Huan walked out of bed barefoot, but she didn't feel cold at all, because the floor under her feet was covered with fire crystal glass jade. There was flaming chalcedony flowing inside the jade, emitting warm heat all the time.
Huh? How did she know this was called Fire Crystal Glaze Jade?
The lighting above the head is provided by large night-shining pearls that are arranged like stars.
In the corner, there are piles of gold, silver, jewelry, and various shiny magical instruments, all of which exude a gorgeous atmosphere of "I am very expensive".
The luxury of this bedroom is obvious at a glance. Anyone who walks in will sigh and wonder how many treasures are used to build it!
But something was wrong. Xue Huan looked at everything in front of her and felt a strong sense of disharmony.
There is also an inexplicable sense of anxiety and urgency.
What's going on?
She walked to the mirror and saw a beautiful and familiar face reflected in it. Yes, it was her own face, there was no doubt about it.
Seeing this face, Xue Huan felt relieved, and then a wave of memories suddenly flooded into her mind.
