Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 272: Essence of the Snowfall Fungus!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the spiritual herb in front of him, Gu Xi’s breathing gradually became rapid.

This spiritual herb was rooted in the soil, and it was almost entirely light blue. What was even more strange was that with it as the center, everything within a few feet of it had turned into ice sculptures. If one approached it, even the temperature between Heaven and Earth seemed to have dropped by a few degrees.

After a long silence, Gu Xi muttered in disbelief, “Snowfall Fungus?”

Previously in the Medicine King Valley, Wu Nanshan had shown him the appearance of Snowfall Fungus.

After observing it for a moment, Gu Xi was almost certain. This spirit herb in front of him was the one he was looking for!

He had never thought that he would be so lucky to encounter a Snowfall Fungus here!

If this matter were to spread out, it would definitely attract the attention of everyone!

After confirming the identity of the spirit herb, Gu Xi subconsciously spread out his spiritual sense and quickly spread out in all directions.

There were no traces of human activity, and there were also no traces of demon beast activity.

Gu Xi frowned and could not help but feel a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, such a precious spirit herb should be guarded by powerful demon beasts nearby. How come there were none here?

Could it be that this spirit herb was fake?

After carefully inspecting the spirit herb, it was indeed real.

......

Very soon, Gu Xi suddenly thought of something.

Who said there were no demon beasts nearby? He just killed hundreds of Ancient Netherworld Lizards, right?

Moreover, he was currently in the Netherworld Lizards’ territory. If that was the case, then those Netherworld Lizards were probably the guardian demon beasts of the Snowfall Fungus mushroom.

Thinking of this, Gu Xi could not help but come to a sudden realization.

This was simply a big pie falling from the sky!

Gu Xi could not wait to approach the Snowfall Fungus. However, he did not pick it because he knew that a spirit herb like this must have a unique picking method. Otherwise, if he were to blindly pick it, it was very likely to cause the spirit herb to be destroyed or greatly reduce its medicinal properties.

If it was an ordinary cultivator, even if they were extremely lucky and encountered the Snowfall Fungus, they would also be worried about picking it. However, Gu Xi, who had the System, obviously did not have such concerns.

“Extract the essence.”

Gu Xi rubbed his hands and said in a deep voice while enduring the cold around him.

[Ding! The spirit herb Snowfall Fungus has been detected!]

[Extraction in progress!]

The System quickly replied.

As the System’s voice sounded, a mysterious aura wrapped around the entire Snowfall Fungus. Immediately, the Snowfall Fungus began to gradually melt and shrink rapidly.

Time passed little by little. The cold around them also slowly disappeared. The temperature between heaven and earth once again returned to normal.

[Extraction successful!]

After about 15 minutes, the original Snowfall Fungus had disappeared, replaced by a drop of dark blue viscous liquid.

This was the essence of the Snowfall Fungus!

However, Gu Xi was not in a hurry to absorb it. Instead, he carefully put it away in a jade bottle. Then, he got up and left the cave, heading deeper into the mountain range.

He had killed hundreds of Netherworld Lizards here previously, which caused a huge commotion that would attract the other contestants. The safest way now was to leave this place and find another secret place to absorb it.

As Gu Xi went deeper into the mountain range, he could clearly sense that the aura of the surrounding demon beasts was decreasing, but the quality of the demon beasts was gradually increasing.

At a certain moment, Gu Xi stopped. After looking around, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

This place was surrounded by mountains, and the terrain was extremely steep. If one wanted to enter this place, the only way was through this inconspicuous small path that he took.

Gu Xi snapped his fingers, and Little Jin responded.

“Guard this place, don’t let anyone in without my orders.” Gu Xi spoke with a serious expression.

Little Jin blinked its eyes and disappeared from its original spot.

With a genuine divine beast guarding this place, Gu Xi felt much more at ease.

In the entire competition, there was probably no one who could defeat Little Jin alone.

Even the ancient demon beasts on this plane battlefield were not willing to provoke Little Jin.

After preparing all of this, Gu Xi walked toward the valley.

Very quickly, he found a suitable place to sit cross-legged.

With a flip of his wrist, an emerald jade bottle appeared in front of him.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Xi opened the jade bottle, and the essence of the Snowfall Fungus slowly rushed out.

Without the slightest hesitation, he guided the essence from between his brows into his body.

In the next moment, Gu Xi’s entire body suddenly froze. He could feel a large amount of pure spiritual energy flowing into his Dantian along with the essence.

Not only that, boundless spiritual energy also filled his limbs and bones. It could be said that Gu Xi’s body was now filled with an excessive amount of spiritual energy!

The excessive spiritual energy made Gu Xi feel unprecedented pain in his meridians. Even his body had begun to gradually swell up, like an inflating rubber ball.

At this moment, he had no time to think. He could only try his best to absorb the spiritual power, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.

If he was a little careless, this excessive amount of spiritual power was enough to burst his body!

Even though Gu Xi tried his best to absorb the spiritual power in his body, his body continued to swell up. Even the surface of his skin had small cracks, and there was even dead blood flowing out of it.

In just a moment, Gu Xi had turned into a bloody man.

At this moment, most of Gu Xi’s clothes had been destroyed by the spiritual power that was flowing all over his body, and his consciousness began to gradually become hazy.

The sleepiness came. Gu Xi’s body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.

“I can’t sleep!”

Gu Xi suddenly bit the tip of his tongue. The pain caused him to be awake for a moment. He knew that once he fell asleep, he would never wake up again.

This thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before exhaustion once again surged into his heart. The thick sleepiness returned and instantly drowned him.

At the same time, the space in front of Gu Xi squirmed and Little Jin’s figure appeared.

Sensing Gu Xi’s current state, Little Jin’s eyes were filled with anxiety and worry.

However, even so, all it could do was anxiously stand by the side.

[Detected that the Host’s life is in too much danger!]

[Activating self-defense!]

Just as Gu Xi was about to fall into a deep sleep, the System’s voice suddenly sounded.

What followed was a refreshing feeling that seeped into his heart.

The sleepiness in Gu Xi’s mind was swept away in an instant, and his originally swollen body began to shrink at an extremely slow speed.
