Meng Zhi tried to calm her heart and focus on the events happening around her. With Ling Zizhou standing next to him, Meng Zhi monitored the giant trees around them that were originally ordinary.
But from a distance, the spiritual waves mixed with chi propagated rapidly like shock waves.
Everything happened all of a sudden, even Meng Zhi had no time to respond. Tau-tau course, all the magic tools that surrounded them gave off bluish smoke and just died.
Not to mention, the shield that enveloped the residential area looked turbulent. The shield is easy to identify because it now gives off a variety of colors like a rainbow.
But because that phenomenon is what makes everyone know that there is a problem. All those in the residents' hall began to prepare themselves in case their energy was needed.
Led by one of the leaders, many began to split. Some went to residential areas bordering the shield, some were standing guard not far from the residents' hall there were also deployed around the magic cart.
"Hii, what is this? This sticky creature can't get away from me!"
"Life!"
Meng Zhi approached people whose legs or hands were trapped inside the slime-like creature.
The shield disappeared after a moment of being seen fighting against an invisible force. Initially Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou were about to check the state of everything inside the magic wagon but did not have time because serious conditions started popping up everywhere.
Ling Zizhou approached a young man his age. The two looked familiar and Ling Zizhou put all his strength into getting rid of the slime that was attached to the young man's right leg.
"Stupid, don't do that! You are crazy!Your aura can hurt him!" said Meng Zhi immediately stopping Ling Zizhou. Fortunately Meng Zhi stopped at the right time.
Ling Zizhou who was bullied in the middle was about to pull out his nurse, became unfocused and lowered his vigilance on the surroundings, making him unconscious of any slime emerging from the branch under his feet.
"ah! stay away from me disgusting creature!" said Ling Zizhou who suddenly had his left leg stuck also inside the slime.
Ling Zizhou frowned. So this is how it feels. It was only fitting that the people trapped inside the slime shouted like women.
It felt like burning fire, exposed to super cold temperatures to feel like being pierced by thousands of needles simultaneously.
It was fortunate that Ling Zizhou's pain threshold was much higher than most people due to his cultivation using the flow of asura.
When Ling Zizhou was fond of nostalgia when he first trained with Master Yi, the shrill voice of Meng Zhi made Ling Zizhou aware that even Meng Zhi could not even run away from the bluish-colored slime snare.
"Khh, you..are you okay Zhi ge?" ling Zizhou said with worry. Meng Zhi's face was slightly pale.
Ling Zizhou worried about Meng Zhi because Meng Zhi was a cultivator whose development towards his spiritual energy. Usually these cultivators were more sensitive to pain.
"Maybe.." said Meng Zhi who chose not to continue her words, afraid of release shouting like a woman as well.
Meng Zhi was drenched in sweat and started shaking so she went to find a place to sit down to rest.
Yet it seemed that Meng Zhi was weaker towards that tormenting pain, more than she had expected. His body fell forward. With nothing to hold back, Meng Zhi lay helplessly on the branch.
Ling Zizhou could actually still use his extraordinary reflexes to catch Men Zhi but Ling Zizhou was in a dilemma about to catch who because it turned out that the young man he was starting to consider his friend had also fallen.
After the dilemma of determining who to arrest now Ling Zizhou faced the question of which to save first?
Ling Zizhou stared around him, many of whom fell victim to the slimes. Only he is still standing.
"Damn!" ling Zizhou said furiously. Ling Zizhou decided to approach Meng Zhi first because his friend who was now gloating looked very sick.
Ling Zizhou did not dare to move people who were in pain. Moreover, Mu Lian had once advised him not to carelessly move or move someone whose source of pain was unknown.
Ling Zizhou also had no intention of touching Meng Zhi, only coming up to her to ask for an opinion on what it was best to do. At least Meng Zhi had quite a high cultivation.
Thus, although it was more sensitive, Meng Zhi remained the first person Ling Zizhou had in mind for this kind of state.
"Zhi ge's? You hear me?" ling Zizhou said as he patted Meng Zhi's shoulder. Ling Zizhou was not aware that the slime that was on his leg suddenly grabbed the slime that was at Meng Zhi's feet.
"Eh?" ling Zizhou said feeling strange as the pain subsided a little.
"uh? Uh Zhou?" said Meng Zhi weakly. His two unfocused eyes were getting back to normal.
"What's going on? The pain.lumayan.." said Meng Zhi hesitated because for him the pain was still torturing him but at least now the pain was still bearable.
"I don't know either. Look, these slimy creatures are fusing together and locking our legs! Appreciable? What's good, I feel better than ever!" said Ling Zizhou immediately helping Meng Zhi stand up.
"..." - ".(Meng Zhi)
"Now what should we do?" ask Ling Zizhou. His eyes swept around him.
But just walking a few steps, Meng Zhi screamed in pain, her voice slightly higher than usual so that it resembled a female scream.
"Huft," Ling Zizhou was also shocked by the pain that suddenly kicked him hard.
When Ling Zizhou looked down, the two slimes connecting his legs and Meng Zhi's legs were cut off.
"Wait, Zhi ge," said Ling Zizhou hurriedly approaching Meng Zhi who was already out of breath.
"Oh, does this thing have to be connected to a new kind of pain that subsides a little?" said Meng Zhi was interested in the miracle brought by the slime.
Meng Zhi brought up her conjecture to Ling Zizhou and was discussing finding the right pair for her friend Ling Zizhou and the others.
The biggest question is if paired randomly, whether the random partner can relieve pain?
Meng Zhi suggested trying to pair Ling Zizhou with her friend but LIng Zizhou did not want to take the risk.
After a few minutes passed, the young man's condition looked worse. His clothes were soaked with sweat. The young man could only curl up with a trembling body.
"No, please don't try anything weird on him! We don't know what effect this experiment would have if it hadn't worked! Look, now he's this sad!" ling Zizhou said.
"But if we don't"
"-how are you sinners?!! I wish I was alive. Because of my partner's insolence, I was late in sharing information.
The first stage of washing, namely the evolution of the inhabitants of this sacred place. But take it easy, as per my master's request, we are sharing the essence of the celestial dragon with you.
That slimy creature that I'm sure won't let go of you is the essence of the celestial dragon. These essences can help your development so that you can survive in the newly evolved environment.
Unfortunately, the essence of the celestial dragon has its flaws that if left alone the pain is unbearable heh let alone you weak people! Weak but dare to sin"
"quickly tell the point stupid! You want to kill them?!" cut someone.
"Damn it! Why blame me, instead of you making me late? Ahem, so basically look for the right fellow who is able to stabilize the effect of the celestial dragon essence.
You are right, the pain you are feeling right now is caused by the essence of the celestial dragon. The effect alone is too strong for you weaklings!
Be careful not to look for partners wrong, otherwise your lives can be directly floated in place.
The trick is to approach your prospective colleagues slowly, if the essence to change color immediately look for another because it means you do not match," said the keeper of the True Cave explained.
The guard also explained that there are 3 color levels that indicate a mismatch, purplish blue that he said can still be forced to remain paired.
Purplish means that it is very dangerous to destroy one's cultivation and pitch black that can take one's life in place.
The guard also tells the duration of the evolution and how long they should live without being able to separate from their partners.
"Damn.." said Ling Zizhou.
"Well, it seems like I will continue with you for the next week, Ah Zhou," Meng Zhi said with a long sigh.
After making sure the guard had finished giving all the information they were about to give, Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou walked over to Ling Zizhou's friend who was now like an undead.
The young man was still breathing, only able to curl up with a trembling body yet still able to respond to Ling Zizhou.
As Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou approached the young man, the essence turned a purplish blue but Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou ignored him and immediately looked for a suitable partner for the young man.
After the young man successfully paired up safely, with a girl from another group, of course, Meng Zhi explained how to pair someone up and reminded to remain cautious during the pairing process.
Meng Zhi was so focused on explaining step by step to the young man that finally the familiar voice made him stop and turn to the source of the sound, which was a few kilos from him precisely from the direction of the cart.
"O wise owner of the sanctuary, please, please save my precious grandson! I'm willing to exchange your compassion for my own life!" mu haocun said loudly. His voice echoed to as far as the True Cave.
Not only that, Mu Haocun also revealed his existence, exerting his spiritual energy as well as revealing his identity as a universal pearl.
Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou looked at each other. Only one of Mu Haocun's precious grandchildren, Mu Lian. That meant something happened to Mu Lian. Meng Zhi and Ling Zizhou immediately returned to the wagon.
Ling Zizhou was willing to be dragged because it was Meng Zhi who had a higher cultivation level than him, had a higher speed as well than him.
Not yet arrived at the wagon, the voice of the man they had heard before being trapped in the True Cave, the owner of the True Cave itself, answered Mu Haocun's call.
