Chapter 82 Underground Palace Training
Xie Yu pulled Jin Jiaren over and said, "Are you trying to kill yourself? Can't you see that the fog is poisonous?"
"Ahem." Jin Jiaren felt guilty and his eyes darted around.
"I'll settle the score with you later! Do you have a potion that can treat it?"
"I just observed, and it will take at least two hours." The implication is that there is a reason why I rushed forward.
"Well," Xie Yu curled his lips, "This guy has obviously been poisoned, Youyou, put away the talisman." Yun wanted to put away the defensive talisman, and Xie Yu went to meet him again.
He didn't speed up this time, intending to slowly wear the centipede to death. Although high-intensity concentrated mental attacks could accelerate the toxins in the centipede's body and cause it to die early, his energy was limited after all. Continuing to speed up would easily trigger a superpower riot. Moreover, his level was high, so his strength would also be affected. Who knows what kind of trouble would happen then.
Xie Yu made room for Tengchong, who immediately stepped forward. The two of them worked together to grind the other centipede to death, taking nearly thirty minutes. Zeng Li was poisoned, and to prevent any accidents, everyone decided to wait for Jin Jiaren to develop an antidote before continuing to search for a way out.
Yun Xiang took advantage of this time to further refine the mother-child defensive talisman. If he could control one child talisman, he could control the second, the third... Yun Xiang kept connecting with Xie Yu, who stood guard beside him.
An hour later, she asked Jin Jiaren for help again. Jin Jiaren kept his word, and two hours later, Zeng Li successfully detoxified. Yun Xiang saw everyone packing up, hesitated, and looked at Xie Yu, who gave her an encouraging look.
Yun Xiang took a deep breath and said, "I have a suggestion!"
"What?" Everyone stopped what they were doing out of courtesy.
"Now that we've found a way to deal with the centipedes, there's no need to rush to kill them. Firstly, we can prevent them from destroying the burrows, and secondly, we can use them to increase our combat power."
"This is a good suggestion. Supplies can be collected at any time. Such a good opportunity for training must not be missed." Zeng Liju agreed with both hands. The battle with the mutant centipede completely aroused his desire for combat power.
"Tell me more specifically."
"I just tried it and I can control three defensive sub-talismans at the same time, which means I can take down three mutant centipedes at once. Two strong ones will deal with one, while three average ones will deal with one. For the really weak ones, one strong one and one weak one will be paired. Each group is tentatively set at 20 minutes. Regardless of life or death, we can switch to another group. After the combat power increases, we can adjust the practice time.
There are three types of defensive talismans. One is a defensive talisman with poisonous mist, which is the mist rising from the water shield when Jin Jiaren's fire ability collides with it. The other is a new poison mutated from the poison of a mutant giant lizard and a giant centipede. Jin Jiaren named it "Three Changes". The last one is a normal defensive talisman.
I suggest starting with the one with mist. After all, the more powerful the defensive charm is, the more the Giant Centipede will be weakened."
"Great! But can you handle it alone?" Lin Ziyu asked with good intentions. Xie Yu took over and said, "The four of us will take turns to control it." Trust is not built in a day or two, and everyone expressed their understanding.
Everyone quickly formed into groups. Yun Xiang and Xie Yu would continue to explore the path, followed by Lin Ziyu and Zeng Li. After that, the Lucky and Beast-Calling Physiques would take turns. Since they had decided to stay and train, it didn't matter which path they took. Yun Xiang chose one at random, and soon encountered two giant mutant centipedes.
As planned, Yun Xiang activated the defensive talisman immediately. Zeng Li and Lin Ziyu were assigned to one group, while Teng Chong and Chu Xu were assigned to another. Twenty minutes later, Bie Nao and Tong You were replaced by Yun Ting, Jin Die, and Huang Shanshan. ... They were lucky, managing to keep the number of centipedes down to two or three for several days.
Everyone switched from the foggy defensive charms to the "Three Transformations" defensive charms. Strong fighters like Xie Yu and Teng Chong had already switched to normal defensive charms. A few days later, the number of mutated giant centipedes had grown to five.
"Looking at the trend, it's going to increase. Do you want to continue?" "Of course we should continue. I'm planning to go out and increase our combat power." Tengchong has completely become a warmonger.
"What about the others?" Xie Yu looked at everyone, "The minority obeys the majority." After this period of training, everyone has accumulated a lot of experience. Whether it is speed, reaction, physical fitness, or strength, there has been a significant improvement. Even the weakest Yun Yunyang has become more resolute and less squeamish. Naturally, no one wants to miss such a good opportunity.
"Let's continue. If we can't handle it, we can just switch back to the foggy defensive charm."
Half a month later, they encountered 10 mutant centipedes, and at most 12 at one time. Minor injuries turned into major ones. If they didn't stop, they were afraid of losses, and their stored water was exhausted, so everyone decided to leave.
After running wild in someone else's territory for so long, even the most temperamental beast would explode, let alone a ferocious mutant giant centipede. Seeing dozens of mutant centipedes rushing towards them, the crowd quickly turned around and fled.
They had already figured out the underground maze's routes and found several exits. Yun Xiang and the other three immediately led the charge towards the four exits. The mutated giant centipedes pursued them in four groups, each numbering less than thirty. They suddenly felt they could still fight back, so they stopped and counterattacked.
The leader of the mutant centipedes watched as the number of his men kept decreasing, and suddenly he roared in anger, each roar becoming more shrill than the last. The other centipedes also roared one after another.
Then, the centipedes gave up attacking Yun Xiang and the others and attacked the underground palace together, clearly intending to perish with them. Everyone immediately gave up the attack and looked for the cave entrance to escape.
The mutant centipede is a master of digging among beasts. Without any interference, it can move at an incredibly fast speed. In less than a minute, the underground palace began to collapse, and sand flowed down like sea water. Everyone stumbled and ran out.
However, the underground palace was collapsing at an extremely fast rate. They blocked one path after another, and when they were about to reach the entrance, they couldn't get out, so they kept changing routes. In the end, the four groups miraculously collided with each other, and the last path was completely blocked. It was only when Yun Xiang activated the defensive talisman in time that he avoided being buried by the quicksand.
Everyone paused for a moment, and saw Teng Chong suddenly take out several dragonfly aircraft and handed them to everyone. Time is running out, don't make trouble. A few people couldn't help but tease Teng Zhong and urged Xie Yu to quickly take out his tornado.
After some fiddling, the Tornado's circular mouth was aimed at the top of the protective shield, and it was adjusted to the highest speed, starting its daily sand-blowing work. Fortunately, their position was not far from the ground, and the sand layer was not too thick. The Tornado consumed several high-level energy stones to barely blow a crack.
"It's time to show your power!" Tengchong patted his dragonfly aircraft and then taught everyone how to operate it.
You Hao was really worried and asked everyone's question, "Are you sure you won't be blown away by the tornado?" He had not forgotten about the Executive Office.
"I was driving in the lowest gear then. Plus, with a dozen of you on one aircraft, it couldn't fly even if it wanted to. Just as Tengchong said, the Dragonfly aircraft had surprisingly high horsepower. Even with a dozen of you on board and the road ahead, it climbed steadily without a single jolt. But that was tough on the last one, as it also had a big problem: a tornado.
