Chapter 444

Wu Xian reached out toward the shrine.

Slap! His arm was bounced away, as if instantly pierced by energy, and every line in his muscles was in pain.

"It feels a bit like being hit by high-voltage electricity; it should be some kind of energy shield."

Don't ask Wu Xian how he knows this feeling.

When he was a child, he took apart the old-fashioned TV at home while no one was home, but he didn't think that even if the power was unplugged, there was still high-voltage electricity in the TV...

If you want to kill the Magic Infant in advance, you have to crack the shield around the shrine; experiencing it yourself is the fastest way to understand it.

When Zhao Zixuan hit the shrine before, he was only bounced away; just touching it shallowly wouldn't cause too much damage.

"It seems that wanting to cheat is not easy."

"In the next offering to the gods, focus on finding the ability to crack the energy shield."

"Hmm, hurry up, it's best to finish it before going to bed tonight, kill the Magic Infant tomorrow; in short, don't drag it to the sixth day; if you drag it too long, even if it's just a Magic Infant, it's not so easy to kill."

"And my strength is not enough for the time being; if I want to kill the Magic Infant in advance, I will inevitably face the counterattack of the Labyrinth Will."

Regarding how to quickly improve strength.

Wu Xian had some certainty.

He pondered for a long time on the spot and turned back to the campfire.

At this time, everyone had rested.

They were busy with their daily routines.

Xiong Gang's hair had fallen out for the most part, scars were everywhere, and he winced slightly in pain even when moving a little bit; he was boiling meat soup in that giant snail shell.

Gong Xiujuan's complexion was weak, her cheeks slightly sunken, and the wound on her leg made her limp when walking; she was holding scissors and cutting the white cloth obtained before into strips.

These strips were very useful and could be used to make torches and bandage wounds.

Wu Xian's use of the Saw-Blade Knife to stop the bleeding just now was only an expedient measure; if the burns couldn't be properly treated, the subsequent infection could also cost a life.

The remaining white cloth was made into capes; there was no way to sew clothes in the mine, and making capes was the simplest and most labor-saving way to use these cloths for warmth.

Fu Liang Liang Jian had no wounds; he had been sitting in the corner, constantly fiddling with the parts dropped from the malevolent entities, trying every means to turn these things into throwing weapons.

Xu Meng had just been rescued and his state of mind was relatively good; he looked at the meat soup expectantly, swallowing his saliva from time to time.

Fatty lay in the corner, its hair disheveled, its state like a stray cat caught in the rain; it was injured, poisoned, and had followed the entire exploration just now; after returning, it lay on the ground to rest and couldn't stand up again.

Liuli had been standing, expressionless, just like a statue, but the wound on her shoulder proved that her state was not very good.

Wu Xian rubbed his face.

Including him, everyone's state was reaching its limit.

"Really can't drag it any longer; if the time drags on any longer, these teammates who were found with such difficulty will all die!"

Soon.

The meat soup was cooked.

Before setting off for exploration, everyone had eaten, so this meat soup was mainly for the newcomers and Wu Xian.

The skull containing meat chunks was placed in front of Liuli; Liuli squatted down and took a deep breath; all the heat of the meat soup disappeared, and the meat chunks inside turned into the texture of bean curd dregs.

She had no physical form, so this counted as eating.

Wu Xian swallowed the meat chunks desperately, wanting to fill his stomach quickly, because only in this way could he accumulate enough Qi and blood to launch the third Suanni-Tiger-Driving.

If he waited until Fatty died to launch the divine ability, then even if he summoned a tiger, it wouldn't be the one Wu Xian wanted.

Xu Meng had long been hungry.

A mouthful of meat soup went down, but he couldn't help but frown. "There's no salt in this meat soup!"

This remark immediately made Xiong Gang frown: "Just make do with it; salt, we haven't touched the taste of salt for several days; it's not bad to have something to eat in this labyrinth."

Xu Meng smiled after hearing this.

"You saved my life, and I was worried about how to repay you; now I have a way."

He stood up and rummaged in his left pocket, searched in his hat, and shook his gloves; before long, he found a small handful of pale pink crystals on his body.

Wu Xian's eyes lit up: "This is..."

"Salt, mineral salt." Xu Meng scratched his hair, "I forgot to tell you, I am a salt mine worker; usually, I will get some of this on my body when I work; after falling into the crack, I kept climbing down, and even more salt was stuck on me."

Wu Xian suddenly realized.

No wonder Xu Meng was so clean; if he was a salt mine worker, it made sense.

Gong Xiujuan and Xiong Gang urged: "Quick, quick, put it in the pot; our mouths are fading to the point of birds."

A handful of mineral salt went into the pot.

Those who had eaten before also had an appetite, and even Fu Liang Liang Jian drank a bowl of soup; he had to replenish salt to have enough strength to take revenge.

After drinking the salty meat soup, everyone's state improved immediately.

Thanks to the salt, Wu Xian ate more meat and had met the conditions for launching Suanni-Tiger-Driving; Wu Xian ran quickly to Fatty, who was on the verge of death.

Suanni-Tiger-Driving!

Launch!

The meat Wu Xian had just eaten was quickly digested, and Fatty, who was about to die, was like dried vegetables soaked in water, suddenly perking up.

Creak, creak...

This change was even more exaggerated than the last time.

Fatty's bones began to grow, its body lengthened, its muscles became more developed, the black in its hair quickly turned white, and a small bump protruded from the top of its head, with smoke spraying from its mouth.

Its appearance no longer looked like a tiger, but more like some kind of strange beast.

"One beast is small, white with horns... With the increase in the number of times Suanni-Tiger-Driving is used, its appearance is already somewhat turning toward Suanni."

After Fatty recovered, it lunged affectionately toward Wu Xian, its big head bumping and bumping.

It helped Wu Xian fight because it was restricted by the divine ability, but every time Wu Xian used Suanni-Tiger-Driving, it was equivalent to saving its life, so its attitude toward Wu Xian also became closer.

This scene of a big tiger changing made the newcomer Xu Meng dumbfounded, and Liuli also widened her eyes.

But the old people were long used to this tiger changing back and forth.

Fatty's recovery put Wu Xian in a great mood.

Wu Xian looked at Xu Meng: "Do you have any more salt on you?"

Xu Meng shook his head: "The little bit of salt just now was just accidentally stuck on my body; there is definitely no more."

Wu Xian asked: "You are a salt mine worker; can't you find salt ore in this underground labyrinth?"

"What do you take a salt mine worker for!" Facing Wu Xian's request, Xu Meng was speechless, "Even if there is salt ore here, it can't be eaten."

"The salt on me comes from the salt mine cave, and the quality is very good; saying that mineral salt can prolong life is nonsense, but high-quality mineral salt is fine to eat directly."

"But in a strange place, salt ore found casually will kill people if eaten!"

Wu Xian's mouth curled up: "No, I don't want to eat it, but have other great uses!"
