The female lead thought she had a "proud and arrogant" character script.

Sure enough, all fortune tellers are riddle tellers.

Luo Qingcheng didn't pay much attention.

Since we haven't encountered anyone else, it means the safe zone hasn't shrunk yet.

It's also possible that others haven't yet grasped the meaning of "drug circle".

But once the circle starts to shrink, they become like sheep being herded by a sheepdog, only able to move in the direction the dog is herding.

Think so.

The first round of shrinking the circle began without any warning.

The demonic energy that had calmed down began to surge wildly, layer upon layer, like sandstorms swept by a storm, instantly engulfing a large part of the sky in the direction the wind was blowing.

Unfortunately, it seems that the circle started shrinking from her side this time.

Luo Qingcheng: ...

Unexpected, but expected.

Sure enough, she knew she had always been unlucky.

But it's hard to say for sure, though not quite.

After all, she is immune to demonic energy.

Luo Qingcheng looked at the six little girls with pity.

The youngest, Bu Ruoxue, blinked her eyes, seemingly deep in thought.

Luo Qingcheng warned, "If you don't run now, it will be too late."

Yueyue's face was heavy. She was unwilling to be eliminated like this, so she quickly called to her four younger sisters to prepare to run.

He even asked, "Real person, aren't you going to run away?"

If Luo Qingcheng could be with them, their safety would be guaranteed.

However, Luo Qingcheng had no such intention. She said, "You guys run as fast as you can, and then find a place to hide."

As long as they hide well and don't need to compete with others, the demonic energy will naturally eliminate most of them.

Yueyue nodded.

Although he couldn't stay until the end, Luo Qingcheng had been with them for so long and searched for so long, which was more than enough.

After the five sisters left, Luo Qingcheng looked at Little Potato and asked curiously, "Aren't you going to run away?"

She didn't run away because she had immunity, so what trump card does this little potato have?

Bu Ruoxue shook her head and followed Luo Qingcheng's footsteps. The ground was a little wet, and she played happily, step by step, leaving her own footprints.

Luo Qingcheng didn't have time to persuade him.

The next second, the rapidly expanding demonic energy enveloped the two of them.

My vision turned completely black and red, as if a thick fog had enveloped my eyes.

"hiss--"

He should have been immune, but Luo Qingcheng was injured by this demonic aura in a single encounter.

The exposed skin was instantly scalded with cracks, and streaks of blood slid down the skin.

At the same time, a sharp pain came from my mouth to my internal organs, as if I was being corroded by something.

"Isn't it?"

Luo Qingcheng was shocked.

She was lucky; anyone else would have been eliminated long ago.

Luo Qingcheng looked at Bu Ruoxue with concern.

Bu Ruoxue remained calm and composed, but when the demonic energy passed by her, it seemed to encounter some kind of obstacle, leaving a vacuum zone around her.

She looked at Luo Qingcheng with a mischievous grin on her face.

"A bloody disaster! Hehe."

Luo Qingcheng wiped the blood from his face: ? ? ?

It really is!

Luo Qingcheng asked, "Little Potato, what method did you use to avoid being disturbed?"

Bu Ruoxue would never tell this bad guy who wanted to destroy her sect.

Luo Qingcheng was helpless; her health bar was finite, and even if she lost 1 HP per second, she couldn't withstand it.

No, wait, she seems to be able to handle it?

The pseudo-spiritual root within the body diligently absorbed the demonic energy and transformed it into its own nourishment. Subsequently, a healing power circulated throughout the body via the meridians.

Given that HP decreases by 1 HP per second and increases by 10 HP per second, we can conclude that HP increases by 1 HP per second.

Seeing that Luo Qingcheng was indeed alright, Bu Ruoxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced guiltily at Luo Qingcheng's back.

A talisman was firmly affixed to it.

Luo Qingcheng was completely unaware.

At the same time, she suddenly began to rapidly absorb demonic energy, which was attracted by the powerful suction and gradually gathered into a vortex.

Luo Qingcheng is at the center of the vortex.

She had to stop.

She was puzzled. Since she could still absorb the demonic energy, why did the corrosion of her skin continue?

But she soon had no time to think about such things.

The pseudo-spiritual root was like a long-awaited rain after a drought, or like a starving ghost being reincarnated. After tentatively absorbing some demonic energy, it suddenly discovered that the abundance of demonic energy around it was something it had never seen before in its life!

If spiritual roots could speak.

It must be yelling right now, "So much food! So much delicious food! Come into my bowl!"

Gradually, the demonic energy formed a large, black-red sphere, enveloping Luo Qingcheng in its center.

Bu Ruoxue had no choice but to move a little further away.

With such a high concentration of damaging corrosive substances, she was afraid that Luo Qingcheng, who had been given a substitute talisman by her, would become unbalanced due to healing injuries and die.

It's fine if she dies, but don't let her blood splatter on her.

Luo Qingcheng did not notice that Bu Ruoxue had run far away.

She felt like she had eaten too much, but the pseudo-spiritual root continued to absorb demonic energy frantically, as if it were a meal with no next one in sight.

She could even feel the pseudo-spiritual root, which had become one with her bones and blood, burning and swelling.

Almost bursting at the seams, Luo Qingcheng couldn't bear the unbearable heat in her heart and couldn't help but shout. The demonic energy around her was shaken off by an inch, and vortexes of energy spread out from her body.

The wind and waves whipped Luo Qingcheng's robes into a fluttering motion, causing his long hair to dance in the breeze.

Before Luo Qingcheng noticed, a talisman was blown away by the wind and waves.

Bu Ruoxue, who had not yet completely escaped the area where the poison had spread, immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Despite her childlike chubby face, she showed no fear, only complaining somewhat about how quickly the talisman fell off.

It's unclear whether Luo Qingcheng discovered it or if it was accidentally rubbed off.

She twirled her hands, revealing a small, exquisite white compass in each. The compass emitted a soft, ethereal light, helping Bu Ruoxue withstand most of the damage.

Only with her low cultivation level could Bu Ruoxue barely manage to stand.

She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, feeling a pang of heartache; it was such a waste. She carefully smeared the blood onto the compass.

The blood droplets immediately seeped into the compass, as if they had been swallowed up.

Bu Ruoxue then smiled.

Clutching its precious compass, it swiftly darted away on its two short legs.

-

On the other side of the poison circle.

The gray stains followed my restless mind.

He looked up and saw that the dark red mist in the sky opposite the abyss was rapidly expanding and pressing down on their location.

"Eldest brother?"

Li Buchao noticed that Hui Yinsui was in a daze, so he walked over and called out to him.

Huiyin's expression turned solemn. "Bu Chao, look, doesn't that black and red mist look like a monster chasing people?"

Li Buchao was puzzled. He looked up and saw that the fog covered the entire forest, but strangely, when it spread to the center of the abyss, it seemed to be blocked by something. The boundary was too clear, which was really strange.

But it doesn't quite look like a monster, does it?

Li Buchao didn't understand. "Senior Brother, Junior Brother doesn't understand where the similarity lies."

Huiyin said, "Demonic beasts are instinctively inclined not to eat their prey immediately after catching it, but to tease it by grabbing and releasing it until they get tired of playing with it before swallowing it whole."

"It may seem like there's a glimmer of hope, but the prey is already doomed."

The description of Li Buchao being covered in gray marks was chilling.

The eldest brother's meaning was clearly that they were prey being toyed with by the demonic beasts.

Seeing his expression, Huiyin suddenly laughed and said, "Scared? Don't worry, there are always tall people to hold up the sky. No matter what happens, I will protect you."

This is his duty as the senior disciple.
