Countless of Leech Pods crawled up through the cracks in the ground and went through the cracks on the ground of the Xia Temple. They then spread towards the entire Xiaoxia City through the south gate of the Xiagong ruins.
A large number of Leech Pods floated in the air and looked like purple clouds under the light.
Many people outside the Xiagong ruins noticed this but no one was alerted as they thought it was just a strange scene. Many of them opened the recording page on their Emperor's Heart Ring and took pictures of the scene.
Soon, something strange happened. The Leech Pods started to infect the people as soon as they noticed them.
In just a minute or two, thousands of tourists outside the Xiagong ruins were infected.
As long as a few of them noticed it, they would run away and hide.
The Life Light in the tourists that were infected was absorbed by the Leech Pods. As their Life Light disappeared, they fell to the ground and could not get up.
However, it was not over yet. More Leech Pods floated out of the south gate of the Xiagong ruins and spread to a larger area …
The battle between Charcoal and the blood-colored vine was getting more intense.
Noticing that the blood-colored vine's aura was increasing, Charcoal decided to give up on its long-range Dragon Flame attack and began to fight the blood-colored vine at a close distance.
Its claws were extremely sharp and each of its attacks could tear a part of the blood-colored vine apart.
Its Dragon Flame at a close distance was even more powerful than before.
The blood-colored vine shrieked in pain as Charcoal attacked continuously. Its attacks were useless against Charcoal's powerful defense.
Charcoal finally demonstrated the terrifying close-range combat ability of the dragonkin.
Its claws were like pliers made of steel. Each time it clawed, there would be a few scars on the blood-colored vine's body. The sharp teeth in its mouth were also terrifyingly sharp. With every bite, the blood-colored vine's body would be torn into pieces.
Charcoal's body was like a natural-born battle machine. Even the pair of wings on its back had the ability to cut through things like a sharp blade.
In close combat, the blood-colored vine was defeated. Its attacks on Charcoal were almost negligible. There were a few times when it tried to tie Charcoal up but Charcoal managed to break free with its immense strength.
However, its recovery ability was amazing. Even when it was bitten by Charcoal, it would heal itself.
As its aura increased, the blood-colored vine began to glow with a faint silver glow.
"This is bad, it's leveling up to silver-level …"
Lin Huang, who was watching the battle, panicked. Once the blood-red vine leveled up to silver-level, its ability would increase tremendously. By then, Charcoal might not be able to suppress it.
"Xiao Hei, is there any way to get rid of this parasite?" Lin Huang had no idea what he could do. The parasite's recovery ability was too strong. Unless he had a skill that was more powerful than Charcoal's, he would not be able to kill it.
"The cards that you have are unable to solve this problem."
"Card Card Mall? Is there anything that can handle such a situation? "Lin Huang asked again.
"The most suitable card to solve the current problem is the Beginner Ultimate Kill Card. It can completely wipe out any creature that is below transcendent-level."
"The first exchange requires one million card pieces. The host does not have enough card pieces."
"Other than the Card, are there any other solutions?"
'The Basic Kill Card is already the best solution. The other solutions require more card pieces and you can't use them either. "
Lin Huang frowned when he heard Xiao Hei's answer.
"Do I have to retreat for now and come back when Charcoal and I are stronger?"
Xiao Hei heard Lin Huang's mumbling and gave him a new hint.
"Now is the best time to kill this parasite. If you miss this chance, you won't have another chance to kill it."
"That can't be. My leveling speed is very fast. It's possible for me to become a transcendent within a year. Charcoal might even be able to level up again …"
Before Lin Huang could finish his sentence, Xiao Hei interrupted him.
"With the support of the strange energy, this parasite's growth speed is faster than any other living thing in this world. Based on my life detection, it only took less than 20 days for it to grow from a seed to its current state. Based on its growth speed, it would take less than two months to level up to a transcendent. Moreover, it might go through a third mutation when it leveled up to a transcendent. "
"In less than 20 days, it's already bronze-level rank-3 and it's already mutated twice …" Lin Huang thought that the parasite had been underground for many years. He did not expect Xiao Hei to report such a result.
"The strange energy is so powerful. Is it because Xia Hao's Goldfinger is more powerful than yours?" Lin Huang was confused. Theoretically, Xiao Hei was a complete Goldfinger, so it should be more powerful than the strange energy.
"All the functions of the Goldfinger are restricted by the rules. You have to follow the rules. However, this strange energy is independent from the Goldfinger. It's not restricted by the rules anymore. That's why it can support the parasite's growth. "
"I'm so jealous of this parasite …" Lin Huang sighed.
"An unlimited growth of power will only lead to destruction. This is the first sentence that has been engraved on my mind ever since I gained my own will. "
Lin Huang was stunned by Xiao Hei's words. However, he soon regained his senses and started to think of a solution.
"The most troublesome thing about this parasite is that it can heal itself indefinitely. If I can suppress its recovery ability, Charcoal should be able to defeat it soon." Lin Huang changed his train of thought and asked, "Xiao Hei, is there any card that can suppress its recovery ability?"
"No, its recovery ability doesn't come from itself. It comes from the support of the strange energy. If I want to make it lose its recovery ability, I'll have to devour the strange energy first. "
"How do you do that? How long will it take? "Lin Huang asked immediately when he heard that.
"You'll need to place your hand on the strange energy for at least three minutes."
"Three minutes is enough for it to kill me dozens of times …" Lin Huang was speechless. He looked down at his body. Although he was in the form of a specter, the physical defense of his body was not much stronger than his own. He would still die if he was hit by a Life Power attack.
Lin Huang sighed helplessly and looked in the direction of the mutated energy form. His eyes lit up when he caught a glimpse of it.
The bottom of the strange energy was in contact with the ground. It looked like the sun that had just risen from the ground.
"Can this energy be moved?" Lin Huang asked Xiao Hei.
"No, there are only two ways to make it move. The first is to hit it with a force that's strong enough to shake it. The second is to use a new Goldfinger to absorb it and bring it away. "
Xiao Hei's reply made Lin Huang happy. "I've thought of an idea. I'll hide underground and reach its bottom when I reach out."
Lin Huang did as he said. His body sank into the ground quickly, approaching the direction of the energy form.
Just when he was a distance away, Xiao Hei's voice was heard again.
"I'm too close, it found me."
"So be it!" Lin Huang ignored it and continued to move closer.
However, the bloody vine above him was getting more and more agitated. It could sense the message from the will of the energy and knew that Lin Huang and Xiao Hei were underground.
Its gigantic body began to hit the ground crazily.
Lin Huang could feel the ground shaking. However, he ignored it and continued to move closer to the bottom of the energy.
Even if the ground collapsed due to the attack of the bloody vine, it would not affect him. As long as he was not hit by a Life Power attack, he would not be hurt in the form of a specter.
Ignoring the attack of the bloody vine, Lin Huang soon arrived at the bottom of the energy. He floated up and touched the energy with his palm.
Only when his palm touched something warm did Little Black's voice suddenly come over.
"Host, you must stay in it for at least three minutes."
"Understood." Lin Huang nodded.
The bloody vine seemed to know what Lin Huang was trying to do. It gave up on Charcoal and attacked the ground.
However, as Lin Huang was hiding below the energy and the diameter of the energy was close to 10 meters, its attack could not reach Lin Huang.
Although Lin Huang was safe, his situation did not improve.
Under the influence of extreme emotions, the silver glow on the bloody vine suddenly exploded and its aura changed rapidly.
Lin Huang's action of taking the energy had stimulated it to level up to silver-level.
After reaching silver-level, the bloody vine's ability was a few times stronger than before. The ground began to collapse due to its attack.
Even its strength was enough to contend against Charcoal head-on.
Since it had achieved silver-level, the number of purple flowers on its body had increased. It seemed to realize that it was losing its mutated energy, so it released all the new flowers and absorbed the Life Light from the outside world at an even faster rate.
In Xiaoxia City, tens of thousands of people were infected by the leech pods. The Life Light in their bodies was declining rapidly. More and more people were being infected, one after another. The entire foothold was in a state of panic.
At the same time, under the Xiagong Ruins, the bloody vine did not stop absorbing Life Light after becoming a silver-level rank-1 parasite. Its aura was increasing rapidly and it seemed to be leveling up to silver-level rank-2 …
Lin Huang was underground and his vision was blocked by the energy. He could not see what was happening outside.
