This fog was actually unkillable and could even gather on its own. For a moment, Jian Ning was at a loss as to what to do with it. She turned to Xiao Wuyu and asked:
"Brother Xiao, they must have something they fear. Over the years, haven't you found their weakness?"
Since Jian Ning couldn't solve the problem, she decided not to confront them directly and instead sought help from Xiao Wuyu.
“Thunder, based on my experience dealing with them many times, only this can completely annihilate them, but there is no way to attract lightning here.”
Xiao Wuyu was quite helpless about this; he knew how to eliminate them, but had no way to implement it. It was truly frustrating.
However, Xiao Wuyu was troubled.
But to Jian Ning's surprise, this was no problem at all. As long as she knew how to eliminate them, that was all that mattered. It was just lightning, she had plenty of that.
With a flick of her slender hand, a stack of talismans, all of them lightning-based, appeared in her palm.
She has quite a lot of storage bracelets in there. She'll go back and collect some more spirit wolf blood later. She can draw as much as she needs without any effort.
With a wave of his hand, he first threw out a stack of Five Thunder Spells.
Then came the Thunderfire Talisman, and finally, the Heavenly Thunder Talisman. She only had five of these, but their effects were absolutely amazing.
Behind Jian Ning, Xiao Wuyu heard one thunderous boom after another, and the thick fog in front of him was blasted open by these thunder talismans, creating a large clearing.
Not to mention these densely packed mist beasts. Almost the instant the lightning struck them, they were blasted away without a trace.
After more than ten minutes, the thunder gradually subsided. Jian Ning looked up and saw a bright moon hanging high in the sky after the fog dissipated. She felt particularly cheerful.
“Brother Xiao, I need to go back and collect some spirit beast blood. This talisman is so effective against mist beasts, I need to draw more Heavenly Thunder Talismans to keep on hand, as it has the greatest destructive power.”
"Okay, together."
Having already made enough progress today, Xiao Wuyu didn't insist on going any further. Instead, she turned her wheelchair around and headed back the way she came.
The journey back wasn't smooth sailing either. The stench of blood attracted a large number of ferocious beasts from the thick fog, which charged towards the area wave after wave, large and small.
However, their combat strength wasn't very high; Jian Ning practically killed them all with a single sword strike. Even the higher-ranking ones...
After killing it, take as much blood as possible.
Of course, the blood from the wolf pack you encountered at the beginning is the most valuable to collect.
At this moment, Jian Ning was starting to regret how violent she had been when she killed the Wolf King, wasting so much of her health. Why hadn't she thought to hold back?
You should know that its blood is the most effective material for drawing talismans.
But it's too late to regret it now.
The first thing to do upon returning to the treehouse is not to check today's harvest, but to eat.
Yes, it's about eating.
Jian Ning was starving after a whole morning of fighting; she had been constantly wielding her sword and killing, which had greatly depleted her spiritual energy.
We need to eat more good food to replenish our bodies, so today we're serving Western food.
The knife and fork were all laid out together, creating a very ceremonial atmosphere. Looking at the still-bloody steak on the plate, Xiao Wuyu found it hard to swallow.
"This meat isn't cooked yet, how about I grill it over a fire again?" As he spoke, bright yellow flames appeared at his fingertips.
"Brother Xiao, you don't understand, this is bovine myoglobin."
Only medium-rare steak is the most tender, juicy, and delicious. If the beef is cooked well-done, it will become tough and lose its delicious flavor.
"If you eat it like this, savoring it slowly, isn't it completely different from the meat you've eaten before?"
As Jian Ning spoke, she picked up her knife and fork, cut off a small piece of beef, put it in her mouth, and chewed slowly, her face full of enjoyment.
This puzzled Xiao Wuyu somewhat. However, he still followed suit and started eating as well. He'd eaten raw meat before when there was no other food, so this was nothing new.
However, just as Jian Ning said, the texture of this meat was different from any meat he had ever eaten before. It seems that she lives in a world full of delicious food.
Having eaten her fill, Jian Ning didn't want to move, so she threw all the plates and bowls back into her spatial storage.
"Brother Xiao, I'll go back and get some sleep first. We can continue exploring further tomorrow. Or I can go out for a stroll during the day and see how far we've gotten in the last few nights."
"You won't see anything even if you go. Actually, I suspect it's a formation. It's just that we're in the middle of it, so we can't find the center."
In the past, after I killed a wild beast, I would go back to look for it the next day, but no matter which direction I went out of the village, there was never a trace. All the beast corpses would disappear that night along with the thick fog. Without a trace.
"Is it really that weird?"
Jian Ning scratched her head. It was indeed a bit troublesome, but she still didn't quite believe it just because she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, so she decided not to go back to sleep.
After leaving the treehouse, I found the direction I had taken with Xiao Wuyu when we left the village yesterday and followed it. The road seemed to be the same one, but strangely, all those wolf corpses had vanished into thin air.
Moreover, there wasn't a trace of blood on the ground, as if the battle that took place last night had never happened.
Unable to find the body, Jian Ning had no choice but to return the way she came.
The villagers were all working in the fields. When they saw Jian Ning walk by, they curiously looked up and secretly peeked at her, but none of them dared to come forward.
They probably knew that Jian Ning was Xiao Wuyu's guest. Although they were extremely curious, no one came over to talk to her until Jian Ning walked into the village, when suddenly an incredulous exclamation came from behind her.
"Young lady, is that you?"
Jian Ning turned around and saw that it was Wu Er. She smiled.
"It's me. Long time no see. You've gotten quite a bit stronger. Is this your child?"
Jian Ning saw that Wu Er was holding a little girl who was only a little over a year old. She was fair-skinned and quite pretty.
"It's mine, your name is Daya. I thought you were dead that year, and I called out to you for a long time."
You didn't answer me. It's not that I didn't want to save you, but I really couldn't get there.
Even now, Wu Er still feels a little sad. He cried back then, truly believing that Jian Ning would never come back.
He was in a bad mood after he came back, and later his mother arranged for him to get married.
He gave birth to this daughter the following year, but Jian Ning's image remained in his heart. When he suddenly saw her today, he could hardly believe his eyes.
"It's alright, I know. Is this Da Ya? She's so pretty. Here, this is a gift from your aunt."
Jian Ning pretended to reach into her pocket and took out a longevity lock that a child could wear. It was pure gold, and she had quite a few of these in her spatial storage, all of which she had bought for free at a jewelry store.
