"Don't tell me this is bone ash …" Xu Heti smiled bitterly.
The jar looked too much like an urn of bone ash.
"No … it's pure bone ash. It's just that there's some undead monster's bone ash in it …" Lin Xinrui answered calmly. She opened the lid of the jar and took out a handful of gray powder. She smeared it on the outside of her combat uniform, including the back of her hands and face.
Xu Heti's face twitched. He smeared the bone ash all over his body. Even though it wasn't human bone ash, it still made him feel uncomfortable.
But in the end, he still smeared the bone ash all over his body.
Then, they smeared a layer of the gray powder on the familiars. Fortunately, the familiars weren't too big. After they were done, Lin Xinrui used up the two jars of gray powder in her backpack.
"Hurry up. This doesn't have a long shelf life. It's only four hours. After four hours, it'll gradually lose its effect. "
The three people and five familiars quickly walked forward. The land around them gradually became desolate.
The vegetation on the ground also became sparse.
The soil on the ground seemed to have been dyed red by blood. Even the soil was dark red.
A blood-red stalk of grass grew out of the ground. Even its roots were blood-red. There were some black hairs on the top of its head.
"Blood Sword Grass. You can sell it for more than ten credits in the market." Lin Xinrui bent down and carefully picked up the stalk of grass and put it in her backpack.
The high-level combat personnel who had followed along were envious. That was hundreds of thousands of credits. They had just entered and already found hundreds of thousands of credits. This place was a treasure trove.
Lin Xinrui didn't look happy about finding a stalk of Blood Sword Grass. Instead, she looked serious. "The danger here might be higher than we thought."
"How do you know?" The high-level combat personnel was stunned.
"There's treasure here. Why hasn't anyone come here? No one is a fool. It only means that this place is very dangerous." Lin Xinrui glanced at him, then carefully observed their surroundings.
That was indeed the case. The locals of Gaoping City rarely came to Changping Village unless they had nowhere else to go. Only then would they try their luck.
When she was a World Hunter, the most profound habit that had been left in her was to always be vigilant of her surroundings and never let her guard down. Fatal threats could be lurking in an ordinary environment. An ordinary plant on the side of the road could be a poisonous plant type familiar.
This place was not an endless plain. Instead, there were small hills and hills. On the hillsides and in the wilderness, there were withered old trees. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws, like the claws of ghosts. Black crows hung on the branches. These crows had three legs and blood-red eyes. They stood motionless on the branches like statues.
A gust of wind blew, and the branches swayed like ghosts.
"Squawk —"
A chill ran down their spines. They turned around and saw a crow spreading its wings. With a twist of its body, it flew up to the top of the withered tree and circled around.
After a while, it landed on the branch again and stopped moving.
Strange scenes played out in this area from time to time.
There was a slope in front of them, and a stone tablet was stuck crookedly into the ground. There were three words written on it: Everlasting Village.
"We're almost there." Xu Heti's voice was very soft. He looked around cautiously.
"Your ashes are really useful. The previous two teams encountered many attacks on their way here, but we actually made it here," Xu Heti sighed.
They walked up the slope and looked ahead. In front of them, they could vaguely see houses hidden in a forest.
The trees there were all tall and dense locust trees with dark green leaves stacked on top of each other.
Suddenly, a pale bone claw reached out from the soil and grabbed Xu Heti's ankle.
The Golden Dazzling Light Boxing Champion Kangaroo's eyes narrowed. It raised its right leg and kicked.
Bang!
The bone claw was instantly shattered.
The kangaroo's leg sank half a meter into the soil.
Then, there was a muffled explosion.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The battle was over in less than a breath.
"Be careful. We're only covering our scent. If we're too close, the monster will still be able to sense that something's wrong."
"Go home, go home …" Low chants came from the distance, echoing across the plains.
The leaves rustled, and gusts of wind blew across the land.
The wind howled, bringing with it the scent of war and war. Rows of translucent blue soldiers wearing leather armor and holding spears passed through the forest from west to east.
"This is the path of the Yin Soldiers." Lin Xinrui frowned. Then, she told everyone to be careful. This was her second encounter with the Yin Soldiers, and she didn't know what they were capable of.
It was better to be careful. More importantly, there were too many of them. At a glance, they were all densely packed with Yin Soldiers. There were at least a thousand of them.
"Thousand-year Yin Heart, General's Bone, and Dark Yin Flame." Lin Xinrui silently counted the treasures and characteristics they had to collect.
She didn't know where her junior had heard about these treasures. She hadn't even heard of many of them, including the strange collection methods.
"General's Bone and Thousand-year Yin Heart are both in the central area, but the Dark Yin Flame is randomly born. Sometimes, it can be found in the periphery. Let's look around first. We have an hour. After that, we'll have to try to break into the central area."
Forty minutes later, the three of them were pleasantly surprised to see the Dark Yin Flame floating quietly in a pit not far away. The blue flame floated in the air like a fire without a root.
The center of the flame was dark blue, and the periphery was light blue. The color was fainter with each layer.
There were three withered trees surrounding the flame in a triangular formation. If one wanted to get to the flame, they would have to go through these three withered trees.
"Gold, let's finish this quickly," Xu Heming said. He was a man, after all. How could he let a woman's familiar go first?
The Golden Dazzling Light Boxing Champion Kangaroo squinted its eyes and glanced at the three trees and the black crows rooted in the branches.
A hint of disdain flashed across its eyes. Then, it hopped forward.
It stepped on the ground with the tip of its foot, and its body became more agile. It swayed faster and faster. Suddenly, it shook its head, and its body turned into a ray of golden light and rushed forward!
Its thick and slender tail swayed wildly behind it, constantly stabilizing its body.
Its legs and tail were the three points of support. The most stable shape was a triangle.
His left leg shot forward, his muscles expanding crazily. His tail, which was raised high, drooped down, forming a straight line with his right leg. His body leaned forward, and the tip of his left foot stomped on the ground, causing dirt to fly everywhere!
It stood up and took root. Its left leg was like a nail that was deeply embedded in the ground. The strong inertia pulled its right leg and its entire body 180 degrees!
Boom!!!
