The Phoenix Fire shot out, instantly reaching the unicorn's body. A sizzling sound arose as the pus on the unicorn's body actually blocked the Phoenix Fire from the outside.
Seeing the person before it launch an attack, the unicorn also let out a roar and charged toward Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life, its contorted horn seemingly intent on killing him.
With a light step, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life immediately dodged and used Wood Escape's wooden strips to trap the unicorn within their confines.
This demonic creature before me is very strange, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life thought. The pus on its body can even block flames, and its only attack method seems to be its horn. Could the pus be merely a protective mechanism?
Just then, the wooden strips binding the unicorn started melting away, dissolving along with the pus and flowing onto the ground.
This instantly put Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life on alert.
Sure enough, I was correct, he realized. The unicorn's pus isn't just for protection; it can also be used offensively. Close combat is not an option! Since wood doesn't work, I'll try stone!
Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life shouted in a deep voice, "Earth Escape, Earth Array Wall!"
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
Beneath the unicorn, four segments of the Earth Array Wall soared into the sky, instantly joining together and confining the unicorn within.
Sensing the danger, the unicorn immediately began attacking the surrounding stone walls. The pus on its body flowed swiftly, and as the unicorn rubbed against the walls, the pus smeared all over them. Unlike with the wooden strips, the stone walls were immune to corrosion by the pus.
Large swathes of pus flowed down and began pooling on the ground, and the unicorn started panicking at that moment.
Climbing atop the stone wall, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life stared at the trapped unicorn and coldly commanded, "Wood Escape, Grafting Technique!"
HISS! HISS! HISS!—
Sharp wooden spikes erupted from the ground, piercing into the unicorn's body and then constantly splitting within, aiming for other flesh.
In just the blink of an eye, the unicorn had become a porcupine, struggling helplessly amidst the confining wooden spikes.
Although he knew Wood Escape was useless against the pus, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life had never intended to resolve the situation with it alone.
"Li Character, Crimson Chains!"
Vast flames fell into the enclosure, and with the wood starting to burn incessantly, towering infernos erupted within the entire Earth Array Wall.
Inside the Wooden House, Iron-blooded War Hero and Half-Leaf leaned on each other, both sporting wry smiles. Who could have expected this Dungeon to be so difficult? They had almost been killed right from the start. Keep in mind they only had one chance now; dying would only allow them to resurrect at the Profound Yellow Sect, and getting back to the Central Domain after resurrection would be difficult.
"What do we do now?" Half-Leaf said with a headache. "Only three of us have gathered, and two are seriously injured. It will take some time to recover. I wonder how the others are doing; let's hope they're not as bad off as we are."
"Don't worry, I already contacted the others when I arrived," Iron-blooded War Hero explained. "Old Mo is trapped in a stone cave filled with spider-like creatures. He's gone into a frenzy and said he'll soon come out to meet us. Extra Large Chili Pepper is by the seaside. Fortunately, he teamed up with people from the Demon Race to fight the demonic creatures there. Wanwan and Da Lang Doesn't Drink Medicine also ran into each other. They were close by, so they quickly joined forces. Junlin is by a volcano. When I contacted him, he seemed to be running for his life. King Pen Duanchang found a spot and started playing Plants vs. Zombies, taking down a whole region by himself. As for Dung Beetle, he's also running for his life, but he said he's going to find King Pen Duanchang. Now, the three of us need to head toward King Pen Duanchang quickly. It's safer over there, and with his plants, we'll be much more secure."
Upon hearing this, Half-Leaf instantly grew envious. Good grief, the person ranked tenth on the Combat Power List had already secured a region for himself, and now we have to rely on him. Are all summoner players this fierce?
Half a Moment later, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life walked in and said with a smile, "Mission accomplished; I used Earth Magic to control and deal with the unicorn."
He didn't elaborate on the process, and Half-Leaf and Iron-blooded War Hero weren't concerned.
The two of them let out a long breath, supporting each other as they got up and said, "We have to go find Sprayer first; his current location is the safest right now."
Upon hearing this, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life slightly furrowed his brows, speaking gravely, "It wouldn't be a problem to head there, but with both of your conditions..."
"Don't worry, I've already recovered, and you don't have to concern yourself with my injuries." Iron-blooded War Hero had brought his own recovery Elixir and had taken it immediately, so the wound just needed time to heal slowly.
As for Half-Leaf, his condition was a bit more serious. Even though he had taken an Elixir, that big hole in his stomach was not something that could be healed in a short while.
"Da Lang Doesn't Drink Medicine must have brought plenty of Elixirs. Once we meet up with him, your injury can be addressed," Iron-blooded War Hero said in a deep voice. "I've run out of the Elixirs I was carrying, otherwise I could have helped you recover even faster."
Now, the three of them were probably the most pitiable. The road ahead was likely to depend on Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life alone, and he also had to constantly pay attention to their conditions.
Tough times.
"Let's set off then. I'm fairly confident in my power from my Five-Element Cultivation." Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life also signaled for the two to relax and then led them straight toward King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang.
「...」
Currently, King Pen Duanchang was in a wilderness area, surrounded by all kinds of plants, even Peashooters. It was unclear how many plant seeds he had brought with him this time. He completely adopted a summoning approach; one man was a Legion. The demonic creatures in this wilderness had been almost entirely cleared out by his plant army. Now, he could truly be called the King of the Wilderness.
King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang lay on a water lily, leisurely basking in the sunshine, very comfortable.
Now I should be able to make the top ten just by lying down, huh? Damn, I'm really smart; this place is just meant for me, King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang mumbled to himself. I brought too few Nut Wall seeds; otherwise, I could've claimed this land and crowned myself king right here.
While he reigned supreme here, the others were struggling for survival, creating two completely different scenes.
Beside him, Seaweed held up a Communication Ring, live streaming his blissful life here.
"Damn, he doesn't seem like he's here for a trial at all."
"Could your trials be like this? He's totally here on vacation, okay? And damn, that century-old little squirty mushroom looks so cute."
"I just checked out Dung Beetle's situation. He's live streaming while trying to escape; it must be tough on him."
"It seems like only Dung Beetle and this Sprayer are live streaming right now. One is escaping for his life, while Sprayer is enjoying himself here; it's damn infuriating."
...
King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang glanced at the comments, his lips twitching before he cursed, "Jealous of what? If you've got the guts, come and fight me. If I frown even once, I'm your Dad!"
His arrogance naturally drew plenty of discontent from the players. This kid was full of himself, having not been smacked by society yet, clueless about how to live a splendid life. The last one to be this cocky was Dung Beetle, who didn't dare to act so brazenly anymore. You think you, a Sprayer, can strut around in the Sect?
"Keep going? I've never been beaten up since I was big enough to remember. If you dare, come and hit me!" King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang stared at the live stream and said, "Not to brag, but against all of you, I could take on ten at a time!"
Then, a comment slowly floated across the screen.
"Xu Nian: ???"
Those three question marks instantly made King Pen Duanchang calm down.
You could offend anyone in this game, but you couldn't offend their Sect Leader; he was the one who would truly fight back.
"Brother Xu, no offense, it wasn't targeted at you; it was aimed at those morons!" King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang said with a smile. "Brother Xu, have you eaten? I've conquered a region here. After a nap, I'm going to expand my territory!"
