Chapter 446

~7 min read 1,287 words

Among these three new talismans.

The effect of the Scald Character was similar to the Melt Character, and it also released high temperatures, but the temperature was lower than the Melt Character; however, the Melt Character would cause the surface of the item to melt and could only be used on weapons, while the Scald Character had a much wider range of application.

The Fire-Avoidance Technique could immunize against flame damage caused by oneself, which could also be considered a useful spell talisman in a Fudi where only flame talismans could be used.

As for the Wind-Summoning and Fire-Gathering Technique... this was the spell talisman Wu Xian wanted! With this spell talisman, he could use wind power to expand the burning range, thereby achieving the effect Wu Xian wanted.

Wu Xian raised his hand and was about to reach into the flames, but just as his fingertips were about to touch the talisman, he retracted his hand.

The Inverted Corpse Forest was too large; could just a whirlwind really burn all the coffins and inverted corpses? If the wind direction was uncontrollable, what if the big fire surrounded him? If he didn't want to be implicated by his own ability, it was best to choose the Fire-Avoidance Technique.

However, the Fire-Avoidance Technique and the Wind-Summoning and Fire-Gathering Technique were both dropped by the last statue, and Wu Xian could only choose one of them.

Wu Xian hesitated for a long time, simulated the scene of casting the spell in his heart, and finally completed the choice.

Temperature-Raising Method, Moth-to-Flame Technique, Fire-Avoidance Technique!

This choice might be able to achieve his desired purpose better than just the 'Wind-Summoning and Fire-Gathering Technique'.

The talismans were chosen.

Wu Xian prepared to explore again; it was actually only a few hours since waking up in the morning, and the next story-telling was still more than ten hours away.

He wanted to take advantage of this time to maximize his ability reserves.

Before leaving.

Wu Xian turned to look at Xu Meng and solemnly instructed him: "When I leave, please try not to sleep; if you fall asleep, or hear strange people talking, don't believe them..."

Xu Meng asked curiously: "What will happen if I believe them?"

Gong Xiujuan said for Wu Xian: "The last person who believed that voice had his wife die, was parasitized by insects, and then died himself; his corpse was burned and then transformed into a Yin House, and finally even the Yin House was burned clean, without even a bit of ash left!"

Xu Meng felt Gong Xiujuan was lying.

But Xiong Gang, who looked honest and simple, also nodded seriously, which made Xu Meng couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

Then Wu Xian walked to Fu Ji'an and whispered in his ear.

"He might still look for you; when that time comes, please also keep calm, otherwise you might not have the chance to see the scene of your enemy's death again."

All the things that needed to be explained were explained.

Wu Xian took the white cape just made from Gong Xiujuan's hand.

Wu Xian wearing the white cape didn't look as cool as in movies, just slightly better than a middle-school boy charging with a bed sheet; but although the styling was slightly funny, this warmth could only be felt by himself.

Torch, bag, the last fire-oil ball, mantis arm blade...

After Wu Xian prepared everything, he stepped into the darkness again with Fatty!...

Step, step...

Wu Xian held a torch and walked into the familiar cavern.

Every time the palace lantern is lit, the roads in the cavern change, but the directions of some important locations don't change, so the first half of the road to the Inverted Corpse Forest was still the previous one.

This road was relatively safe, and Wu Xian chatted with Fatty in the darkness.

"Hey, don't you think Xiong Gang and Gong Xiujuan are also a bit ambiguous?"

"Roar!"

"This is also normal; after all, for Xiong Gang, they are the same, and for Gong Xiujuan, her body did indeed kiss Xiong Gang, but this creates a problem... If Xiong Gang and them get married in the future, is it pure love or NTR between them?"

"Roar?"

Fatty could now understand not only commands but even some slightly complex sentences.

The man and tiger chatted, and there was no attack by any malevolent entity on the road, but this road had been cleared twice, so it was normal for there to be no monsters.

The air was filled with a rich stench; some malevolent entities that had died on the road before were rotting and stinking, being absorbed little by little by this eerie cavern.

Soon the man and tiger found the smoky gray rock wall with crystalline bands that Xu Meng had described before.

"You come and lick it; is this stone salty?"

Fatty immediately glanced at Wu Xian sideways, causing Wu Xian to rub the tiger's head angrily.

Just like the poor obedience of Border Collies, Fatty's obedience was even worse after its IQ became higher than during the second Suanni-Tiger-Driving.

So Wu Xian could only taste it himself, rinsed his mouth, and confirmed that this rock wall was really salty and was indeed salt ore.

Then Wu Xian picked up a stone and smashed it fiercely at the rock wall; after a few times, he smashed a pile of debris, and then he collected these debris and further smashed them into powder.

Besides the Labyrinth Will and the Magic Infant.

The monster that gave Wu Xian the most trouble in the underground labyrinth was the Snail-Fear Malevolent.

It's common knowledge that mollusks like snails are afraid of salt, so Wu Xian collected this coarse salt to give the 'Snail-Fear Malevolent' a big surprise when he saw it again.

But after smashing a few times.

Wu Xian's expression became serious, and he sensed that something was wrong.

"The sound... seems to be delayed!"

"After I smashed the stone down, there were other vibrations coming over!"

Wu Xian tried a few more times, and every feedback was slightly different from just smashing stones; those extra sounds sounded somewhat like the footsteps of some kind of thing!

"Something is approaching; the Labyrinth Will really took action against me!"

Wu Xian had an estimate for the current situation; he quickly collected all the powder and then took Fatty to speed up his pace.

Along with the acceleration of their footsteps, various footsteps seemed to sound from behind.

All the footsteps came from malevolent entities!

Before leaving the large cavern, Wu Xian publicly stated to everyone that he was going to do a big thing in order to light that pile of firewood! The Labyrinth Will must have been eavesdropping too.

Although Wu Xian had spoken very vaguely, at this moment in the underground labyrinth, it was at a critical moment before the birth of the Magic Infant; if Wu Xian were the Labyrinth Will, he would definitely clear any unstable factors.

Therefore, Wu Xian, who entered the cavern alone, was targeted without surprise.

The Labyrinth Will dispatched malevolent entities, wanting to surround and kill Wu Xian like Xia Caoqing; for this purpose, he also made targeted arrangements.

Because in previous explorations, Wu Xian had the habit of lying on the ground and judging the footsteps of other things through vibration, so this time the approaching malevolent entities would only approach when Wu Xian was moving.

Because Wu Xian was carrying Fatty, the corpses on the road would collectively rot and stink; those odors were to interfere with Fatty's sense of smell!

Only by doing this could those malevolent entities quietly surround Wu Xian!
