"Ka!" Another lightning bolt shot out from the lightning lake. With a twist of his body, Mo Wuji easily dodged the lightning bolt.
Mo Wuji was amazed. In fact, when he started dodging the lightning bolt, he did not even think that he would be able to dodge it.
No wonder people say that cultivators are strong. Mo Wuji had not even started cultivating, but just opening one meridian made him feel much more relaxed. It was like opening the conception and governor meridians. How strong were those who had opened more than 10 meridians and cultivated for many years?
Another few lightning bolts fell. Mo Wuji could not dodge all of them, but he could still move. Half an incense's time later, Mo Wuji was struck by the lightning lake tens of times before he finally charged out.
Mo Wuji, who thought that he was going to die for sure, stood at the edge of the lightning lake and sighed. Who knew if life was a blessing or a curse? If he had not experienced this near-death experience, how would he have been able to open one meridian with the help of his own channel opening solution and lightning from the lightning lake?
Opening one meridian cost him eight bottles of channel opening solution and half his life. This was not a small price to pay. Even though Mo Wuji still had two bottles of channel opening solution, he did not intend to continue being struck by lightning. He wanted to open a second meridian.
Even Mo Wuji knew that even if he continued to use the channel opening solution and the lightning strikes from the lightning lake, he would not be able to open a second meridian. If he was not careful, he might even lose his life.
Mo Wuji was not disappointed. Being able to open one meridian was already a huge surprise. More importantly, it allowed him to grasp a method to open meridians. If meridians were spirit channels, wouldn't it mean that he was a cultivation genius when he opened 99 meridians one day?
Another terrifying roar could be heard. Mo Wuji woke up from his daydream. Only then did he remember that he was still in the Thunder Fog Forest. Before he entered the lightning lake, there were two strong demonic beasts fighting.
Now, the place where the two demonic beasts fought was a mess, and the two demonic beasts were nowhere to be seen. A few more roars could be heard. Mo Wuji decided not to take the risk. It was good to go out at night, but if he got lost in the depths of the Thunder Fog Forest, he would be doomed.
Not far from the lightning lake, Mo Wuji chose a huge tree and climbed it. He found a spot in the middle of the tree and leaned against it. Mo Wuji tore apart his tattered shirt and tied it into a knot. Then, he used this cloth to secure himself in the middle of the tree branch.
In a place like the Thunder Fog Forest, he didn't dare to stay overnight.
…
Leaning against the tree, Mo Wuji did not know when he fell asleep. When he woke up, there was already light shining through the gaps in the trees and falling on his body through the hazy fog.
Mo Wuji surveyed his surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, he quickly untied his clothes and slid down from the tree. He had to get out of the Thunder Fog Forest as soon as possible, and he had to succeed in one go. Otherwise, he might stay here forever.
His luck was good last night, but it didn't mean that his luck would always be good.
Mo Wuji guessed that he would never come back here again, so he carefully observed the location of this lightning lake. If the second meridian needed the lightning arcs here, he might have to take another risk.
There were many lightning lakes in the Thunder Fog Forest. However, it was not easy to find a lightning lake that could help him open his meridians. If he met a lightning lake with a strong lightning bolt, he would be smashed to pieces before he could open his meridians.
Two-leaved Fire Grass? Mo Wuji recognised the Two-leaved Fire Grass at first glance. Because it was already late last night, he didn't pay much attention to it. At this moment, Mo Wuji could clearly see that there were at least three stalks of Two-leaved Fire Grass at the location where he rushed into the lightning lake last night.
The two leaves of the Two-leaved Fire Grass were separated, and there was a flame-shaped grass core in the middle.
Mo Wuji didn't pick the Two-leaved Fire Grass immediately. This grass was very useful to Han Ning, but not to him. The most important thing now was to find a way out of the Thunder Fog Forest.
It was dusk when he escaped into the Thunder Fog Forest last night, but Mo Wuji was still able to identify the direction he came from. He heaved a sigh of relief. According to his calculations, he was still at the edge of the Thunder Fog Forest.
After digging out the three stalks of Two-leaved Fire Grass as fast as he could, Mo Wuji rushed out in the direction he remembered. He believed that the Heart Drilling Snakes would not stay at the same spot, and would have left long ago. There must be a reason for the Heart Drilling Snakes to move out at the same time. Regardless of the reason, he didn't want to stay here any longer than necessary.
Half an hour later, Mo Wuji's sense of direction gradually disappeared, and he started to get anxious. If he couldn't find a way out within 10 minutes, it would mean that he had really lost his way, and he might not be able to find his way out.
"Mo Wuji …" A voice called out from afar.
Mo Wuji thought he heard wrongly. Why would someone call out his name? When the voice called out again, Mo Wuji confirmed that he didn't hear wrongly. Someone was indeed calling out his name. Moreover, the voice that called out his name sounded familiar. It should be Ding Bu'Er.
Mo Wuji was elated that Ding Bu'Er was not killed by the Heart Drilling Snakes, and was still looking for him.
With a voice, he had a direction. Mo Wuji quickened his pace towards the direction where Ding Bu'Er's voice came from. In just a few minutes, Mo Wuji felt his vision brighten up.
Mo Wuji called out excitedly, "Bu'Er, I'm over here."
He finally came out.
After a dozen breaths, five figures appeared from behind a small hill.
"Wuji, you're actually alright. That's great … But how did you end up like this?" Ding Bu'Er didn't expect Mo Wuji to still be alive. To be able to stay alive after spending the night in this place was really a stroke of luck. However, Mo Wuji's hair seemed to have been burnt by something. His upper body was covered with black marks, and one of his arms was tied around his neck with a piece of cloth.
"Bu'Er, thank you so much. I was in a daze and didn't know where to go when I heard your voice, "Mo Wuji said gratefully. He didn't explain why his body was burnt.
Ding Bu'Er hurriedly said, "I just wanted to try my luck. That's why I asked little miss to call out your name. I didn't expect to really find you. There were 12 of us, and now with you, there's only 6 of us. "
Mo Wuji hurriedly went forward to thank her, "Thank you little miss for your concern. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to leave this place."
Not only did Han Ning look exhausted, she was also in a sorry state. Her fiery-red clothes were also tattered. Seeing Mo Wuji thank her, she waved her hand, "Being able to survive is already a huge stroke of luck. Yesterday, a total of six of us died. The bodies of the rest have been found, and only you are missing. Ding Bu'Er asked me to look for you, so I asked everyone to come and look for you. I did my best. "
Mo Wuji looked at Han Ning. Besides the maid Shao Lan, there was also Peng Maohua and Chai Jiu. Including him and Ding Bu'Er, there was only half of them left.
At this moment, everyone's gaze fell on Han Ning. She was the little miss of the Han Residence, so naturally, she was the one in charge.
Han Ning said apologetically, "I didn't expect to meet with the Heart Drilling Snakes the moment we got close to the Thunder Fog Forest. To think that I would be so unlucky to meet with such a thing. Perhaps I'm not destined to get the Two-leaved Fire Grass. "
Peng Maohua asked carefully, "Little miss, are we going back now?"
Han Ning's gaze lingered on Peng Maohua for a while before she sighed and said, "I need to get the Two-leaved Fire Grass. This grass can only be found at the edge of the Thunder Fog Forest. I didn't expect the situation to be so dangerous. I won't force anyone. Those who are willing to come with me to find the Two-leaved Fire Grass can stay. Those who are not can go back first. "
