Lung Perforation

The Elven Pilgrimage has always been a perplexing topic for the creatures of the Red Soil Continent. No one has figured out why these darlings of the Elemental Tide set out from the rainforest, pass through the Rhine Grassland and the Great Wasteland, and enter the Despair Forest.

These tender, juicy pieces of meat could make a Slave-Catching Group instantly rich with just a single bite.

But wealth and danger go hand in hand; the vast and mighty migrating army will annihilate everything in its path.

At this moment, the endless army of Elves was advancing rapidly. The constant running made them groan with exhaustion, as the scorching Tide of the Wasteland were constantly squeezing the moisture from beneath their delicate skin.

The Hippogriff had to lower their flight altitude, the massive Chimera contracted their scales, and even the Unicorn began rubbing their paws together to try and reduce their body heat.

But none of them slowed down; Despair Forest.

You must arrive at the moment the Despair Forest comes to a standstill.

The Elves will try to minimize their emotional fluctuations, as any emotion will cause them to lose control and absorb too much of the dry Tide currents from the Wasteland, which will tear away the little moisture in their bodies.

But now, nearly 30,000 Elves had to open their eyes wide, their faces filled with astonishment.

A Frog.

A Giant Frog, engulfed in flames and constantly vomiting light, was tumbling in the air, croaking incoherently as it unleashed beams of intense heat.

Boom!

The Giant Frog, shaped like a small mountain, crashed directly into the ground with a deafening roar, like a comet landing. The dust it kicked up was like a hurricane, throwing the pilgrim group to their knees.

The Elves had to waste their Magic Power and start running, even the strongest Chimera were desperately flapping their wings.

This Frog is so big, it's like a mountain hopping around.

But with each landing, some unfortunate Elves turned into meat patties, especially their vomit, which resembled clumps of Neon.

Quack! Quack! Quack!

The croaking Giant Frog suddenly froze, its large mouth facing the sky.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the Frog appeared to have truly become a mountain.

But this momentary illusion deceived the Elves. Suddenly, its wide-open mouth spewed out Neon beam of light, shooting straight into the sky and forming Neon cloud, resembling a giant fiery cloud.

As the clouds gathered to their fullest extent, a single Neon raindrop fell.

Thud! Thud!

In an instant, the entire Wasteland was submerged in Neon- colored rain. This rain, like sulfuric acid, instantly corroded the Elves' skin, easily taking their lives.

Disaster!

A disaster that lasted only a quarter of an hour!

The Giant Frog leaped over my head and hopped away towards the Despair Forest.

What remained were countless corpses and pools of decay resembling stagnant water.

"My God, what kind of species is this?"

No Elves felt fortunate; the damage caused by this Giant Frog was the most terrifying since the Elven Pilgrimage, including that of Magic Power Magister. Even though the Giant Frog had completely disappeared, the horror in their eyes could not be dispelled.

They all sensed that the Frog they couldn't fight was suffering.

Bang!

The rapidly rolling airflow carried Li Ziran and slammed him hard against the Flesh Wall. A violent force seemed to tear him apart and force him back into his trachea.

This is the seventeenth time. Every time Nicole's Forbidden Wind Blade create a wound, each wound triggers a reversal hurricane.

This hurricane seemed to be trying to expel everything from my lungs.

Jon is coughing!

Li Ziran could sense it, but unfortunately, he would never cough them out. Every time a hurricane struck, it would deliberately bypass the location where Li Ziran was.

The inner lining of the lungs is a dead zone for airflow, and phlegm can form there, especially in the mucous membrane, where it also has a special adhesive force.

To make Li Ziran cough it out, you'd have to cough out your own lungs.

That's completely impossible.

"Quack quack!"

Li Ziran could clearly hear the screams of agony. He had no choice but to do this. Of all diseases, lung diseases are the most difficult to treat, the most painful, and the most torturous.

Although Nicole's Forbidden Wind Blade couldn't pierce the magic lungs, it was precisely this lack of pain or discomfort that made it all the more unbearable.

Bang!

Forbidden Wind Blade shot out, stirring up layers of sparks.

The dark spots on the lung mucosa became increasingly faint; only a few dozen more bombardments were needed to penetrate the lung.

Lung perforation!

Enough to drag any living being into hell.

As a unique organ that absorbs the Elemental Tide, the lungs are filled with countless air currents, making the entire lungs resemble an inflated balloon.

A small hole suddenly appeared inside the balloon, and the result was...

Hehe!

Those unprocessed elemental streams would instantly rush into the skeleton.

Pain is secondary.

Li Ziran once conducted an experiment in which a Frog with a perforated lung hopped around in place for three days before finally dying.

"Croak!"

Another scream rang out as a reverse, powerful wind surged through his lungs once more. Li Ziran bumped and jostled inside the mucous membrane, but no matter how strong the wind was, it couldn't pull him out.

Within the mucous membrane, there are hundreds of blind spots.

"One more time!"

After regaining his balance, Li Ziran gave Nicole an encouraging smile.

This is a protracted war; if they persevere, they will be the ultimate victors.

Not only can they escape, but they might even gain a Giant Frog with the title of Title Magister.

This corpse was enough to make those Necromancer kneel down and beg Li Ziran to learn magic.

Bang!

The Forbidden Wind Blade went astray.

Li Ziran's brow twitched; Nicole had missed.

This was the first time, and he knew Nicole's techniques; this woman's professional skills guaranteed 100% accuracy.

"Let's try again!" Li Ziran gave him an encouraging smile.

Bang!

The Wind Blade struck the inner mucosa with a large arc, but this time it not only missed but completely deviated from its direction.

"What happened?"

Li Ziran was somewhat angry. This was a mistake that should never have happened. Jon's lungs were so strong that all the Wind Blade had to strike the same point. If they couldn't penetrate it, he wouldn't be able to escape. But at this moment, Nicole was staring blankly with her eyes open, as if she was lost in thought.

Eccentric!

Li Ziran didn't have an editor in charge, and he sensed something was wrong.

The unusual cough is disappearing, and it feels like my lungs are inhaling.

"It's out of control," Nicole finally replied to Li Ziran after a long pause.

"Wrong!"

Li Ziran sensed something was amiss; something must have happened, as if Jon was absorbing something.

It should be some kind of anti-inflammatory mist spray.

He sensed something was wrong; the best way to treat lung disease wasn't coughing, but rather constantly infusing his lungs with a disinfectant spray.

Only by truly killing the virus can the lungs possibly heal.

"What on earth is this Giant Frog doing?"

Where's Jon?

At this moment, it leaped high into the air and plunged headfirst into the misty Despair Forest.

The first thing he did upon entering the Despair Forest was to open his mouth wide and take a deep breath.

Ah! That feels so good!

He didn't feel any constraint; the moment the Despair Mist passed through his lungs, all the pain vanished.

He is right.

The Despair Mist could help alleviate his pain.

But he didn't know that this was a poisonous gas. It could indeed alleviate pain, but at the same time, it would numb nerve sensation and could even enter the bloodstream, numbing the whole body.

One bite is so satisfying, two bites and you're hooked.

Before long, a vortex of air began to form in front of the Giant Frog.

"This feels so good!" Jon couldn't help but exclaim again.

Li Ziran had no idea that Jon was frantically absorbing the Despair Mist, and now his entire lungs seemed to be filled with a thick fog, making the mucous membrane at the top of his lungs completely invisible.

More importantly, the thick fog was gradually making him confused.

This is terrifying; it feels even worse than when Annie petrified him last time.

Leave!

We must leave immediately!

Li Ziran looked ahead and saw only faint specks of light, which were moving rapidly forward, propelled by the mist.

Heart!

That should be where the airflow from the lungs mixes with the blood and enters the heart.

Now, we must go to the heart.

Once this place is completely enveloped by dense fog, this precious entrance will be lost forever.

"Nicole, teleport!" Li Ziran pointed directly at the faint light ahead. Nicole reacted even faster than him, and before he finished speaking, she had already appeared on the edge of what looked like a cliff.

Countless points of light slanted down, while below, all was silent.

Dark as a deep pool, the unknown inspires fear.

"Are you scared?" Li Ziran asked, looking at Nicole.

Nicole shook her head, about to say no, but Li Ziran grabbed her and pulled her down.

He was scared!

He'd never been inside a heart before, but the more afraid he was, the more determined he became.

The wind whistled past my ears, and my body was being pulled downwards at breakneck speed, faster and faster, as if my soul was about to detach from my body.

Suddenly, Li Ziran felt as if he had passed through a thin membrane.

Puff!

We've finally landed.

The viscous substance instantly seeped into his ears, nose, eyes, and mouth, as if he had fallen into paste. Before he could react, the torrent carried him away into the distance.

Li Ziran subconsciously glanced at the sky above, where a beautiful waterfall of shimmering light appeared. However, at the top of the waterfall, a hazy, gray mist seeped in, like a ferocious beast eyeing this untouched territory.

"Walk!"

Li Ziran said impatiently that this thing was spreading faster than he had imagined.

With his current thick blood, he should be located in the vein connecting his lungs and heart.

Blood could carry him to all his organs, but Li Ziran had his own plans.

The only way to escape is through the weakest blood vessel.

He needs to hurry.

Blood can merge with Elemental Tide, and it can also merge with that strange mist.

Just then, a tremendous rumble came from the front. Looking up, one could see an enormous round basin, its rim inlaid with dense, golden patterns.

Bang bang bang!

Strange throbbing could be heard all around my ears; with each throbbing, my mucous membranes vibrated. In the far distance, I could vaguely see a dark hole, into which blood was being pumped.

The blood was dark and lifeless.

As soon as the withered black blood entered the round basin, it bounced and throbbed as if boiling, quickly turning golden and flowing into another channel.

Is this the heart center?

Is it currently being compressed?

Li Ziran didn't expect to arrive at Jon's heart center so quickly, nor did he expect the center point to be a basin. Unfortunately, before he could examine the heart's shape closely, he and Nicole were thrown into the basin.

Instantly, countless blasts of cold air surged towards the body's surface, seemingly attempting to completely assimilate it.

Just as they were about to freeze completely, the raging blood propelled them into another passage.

Before he could even process what was happening, he found himself inside a giant, constantly writhing, circular honeycomb.

This should be inside the blood vessels of the stomach muscle.

The violent torrent just now must have been from an artery; only a major artery that has just separated from the heart could have such a rapid blood flow.

This is the first organ that leaves his heart, Jon's stomach, then his liver, gallbladder, and kidneys, constantly flowing through his blood vessels.

"Nicole, get ready, we have to get out of here."

While assessing the situation, Li Ziran reminded Nicole.

The blood flow is so fast that it can carry him to other organs in just a few seconds.

The inside of blood vessels is not a good place; after just three to five cycles, the entire bloodstream will be contaminated with that highly numbing gas.

Once they become completely numb, they probably won't even have the will to escape.

Frog have some of the best blood circulation among all species, except when they hibernate.

Clearly, this Giant Frog didn't know what hibernation meant.

Brain!

This is Li Ziran's goal.

The blood vessel walls in Frog's brain are the thinnest and finest. Moreover, after the arteries enter the brain, hundreds of branches appear. Sometimes, even a slight touch to one of these blood vessels can cause a brain hemorrhage.

Even the thinnest blood vessel can be breached with just a single Wind Blade.
