Although there were still about two minutes before the effects of the Ice Crystal Fruit wore off, Gu Xi felt that it wouldn't hurt to act now.
Gu Xi stood still, releasing her mental energy. Since everything around her was blue, she couldn't tell how big the forest was with the naked eye. Therefore, to save time, she might as well use her mental energy to find all the fruit.
Soon, her mental energy reached the edge of the Ice Crystal Tree area. She wondered if the scarcity of Ice Crystal Fruits was due to it not being the harvest season. She searched the entire forest, but still only found a few trees bearing fruit.
But this is not bad, since there are few fruits, and it is easy for her to collect them.
After pinpointing the exact location of the ice crystal tree bearing the fruit, Gu Xi withdrew his spiritual energy and then raced towards the tree, stepping on its sharp thorns. It took him about half an hour to loot all the ice crystal fruits he had found.
During this process, although she did not find any other Ice Crystal Birds, she believed that there must be quite a few Ice Crystal Birds in the vicinity.
Gu Xi walked forward and soon emerged from the icy forest into a meadow. Looking down, she noticed the grass was entirely ice-blue, a color that constantly stimulated her brain, making her feel dizzy.
She is now quite certain that she has developed blue phobia.
"Can't there be any other colors!" She closed her eyes in anguish; she was truly fed up with this visual torture.
Otherwise, she could set this meadow on fire and clear it away. Right now, in her eyes, even if the meadow turned a dull, grayish-black, it would be better than it being entirely ice-blue.
But as Mercurians, everyone knows that setting fire to mountains is wrong. Does she really want to do such a despicable thing?
Gu Xi opened her eyes, and the sudden blue light startled her again. She quickly looked up at the sky. Although there were a few white clouds floating in the sky, it did not prevent it from being blue.
She summoned several spikes, and then she directed them all at once to attack the ground.
After a loud bang, she realized what she had done.
The plants on this island have a different texture than those on other islands. Even though they bloom and bear fruit, their texture, both to the touch and to the eye, is that of ice crystals.
Now the entire meadow is attacked by spikes, and the flowers and grass on the ground are instantly shattered. The impact of the spikes colliding with the ground directly breaks them into fragments that scatter in all directions.
After realizing her attack, Gu Xi quickly put a defensive shield on herself.
The moment she activated her skill, the fragments struck the defensive shield with a clang, then fell to the ground in front of it.
Other unobstructed fragments were launched directly into the forest, leaving obvious marks on the ice crystal trees after colliding with them.
Once the fragments stopped bouncing, Gu Xi lowered his hand, which had instinctively made a defensive gesture.
She acted impulsively just now; she was stimulated by all the blue here. Doesn't color theory say that blue is a melancholic color, and seeing too much of it can negatively affect your mood? Yes, that must be it, so her actions just now were an attempt to break free from melancholy.
After finding a plausible excuse for her earlier actions, Gu Xi withdrew her thoughts. Although she had initially considered burning down the patch of grass in front of her, the thorns had achieved a similar effect.
After the damage from the spikes, the blue ice on the ground is now scattered, and the once lush grass has become bare.
Holding a sharp spike, she carefully leaped across the broken blocks of ice. Across the grassland lay the Ice Crystal Forest, and she needed to reach the other side to collect Ice Crystal Fruit.
