Potent Grain Avoidance Pills
A thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by an ant hole.
The formation is incredibly complex; the destruction of even one key element can trigger a complete rout.
The secret place of Shanglin Garden in Zhongnan Mountain had already developed loopholes after being constantly attacked by internal and external formations. It was like a raging fire that was just one step away from colliding.
Zhang Xuezhou's digging a hundred meters into the ground, penetrating the four gates of the encircling formation, undoubtedly ignited this raging fire ahead of time.
A constant rumbling sound filled the sky above the secret place, and a fiery cloud appeared. Zhang Xuezhou felt somewhat dizzy when he looked at it, while Huo Qubing, after drinking the water, thought he had turned into a seedling and could only lie on the ground muttering to himself.
Even though they were standing in the palace area of the master of the secret place, they were not immune to the hallucinogenic effects.
But what's even more serious is the reversal of fortune in the Four Gates Encirclement Formation. As it keeps changing, Zhang Xuezhou feels that the groundwater suppressing Zhongnan Mountain is reacting too quickly.
A stream of water began to spray out murky waves from the deep pit he had dug.
This is completely different from what Zhang Xuezhou felt when he drew water. It is highly likely that a large amount of groundwater seeped into the secret place through other areas, which is why the groundwater was able to gush upwards so quickly.
The Shanglin Garden covers more than 300 li and contains eight rivers. Zhang Xuezhou did not know how large the Four Gates Encirclement Formation could actually cover, or whether it would cause the river water to back up and be pumped back.
He considered building a simple boat as a precaution to avoid being flooded like Fangzhang Island, but at another moment he wanted to climb to the top of the secret mountain to see the situation before making a decision. After all, the power required for the water level to rise needed to be continuously increased, and the Four Gates Encircling Formation was drawing water resources from the underground above the secret land, so the power during the backflow was likely to be limited.
"This is practically a double kill from two formations!"
The illusion array in this secret realm is in disarray, bringing hallucinogenic factors, while the four-gate encircling array suddenly entering the secret realm causes the extracted water flow to sweep back.
If he didn't have the secret artifact, the yu, belonging to the master of the secret place, Zhang Xuezhou felt he would have to lie down and wait to be drowned.
He muttered to himself, and could only continue to observe and wait for the situation to change before making a decision, finding it difficult to make a decisive decision at the moment.
"Croak, great! This is the hottest desert ever!"
Amidst the gushing water, a toad demon half the height of a person let out an excited croak, then landed on the muddy water, rolling back and forth in the muddy water.
Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Jin Wanliang's body, which was almost deformed from being crushed, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Although the secret place is now connected to the outside world, the width of the underground tunnels is obviously limited, and the dark and winding underground tunnels are not a good way to escape.
Zhang Xuezhou was unable to dig another passage outwards amidst the suppression of the Four Gates Encirclement Formation; he could only wait for the Law Power to subside.
He glanced at the continuous roaring in the fiery clouds, and for a moment he didn't dare to fly high. Instead, he ran on the ground and pulled Jin Wanliang, who was rolling in the mud, back to safety.
"It feels so good to have the sun on my skin!"
Jin Wanliang murmured until a sharp pain shot through his head, which brought him back to his senses. He opened his eyes and looked at the secret place where thunder roared incessantly.
"Godfather, I'm so glad I've finally met you!"
Jin Wanliang wasn't stupid. The desert he had been imagining for half a month vanished from his mind, and Zhang Xuezhou's face came into view. He immediately distinguished between reality and illusion, and realized that it was Zhang Xuezhou who had pulled him out of the illusory desert scene.
Jin Wanliang jumped halfway up the hill to show his loyalty, but he couldn't help but stumble. He then glanced at Huo Qubing, who was lying on the ground behind him, asking for water.
"Godfather, can this little thing be eaten?"
A bloodthirsty, predatory urge surfaced in Jin Wanliang's eyes. He spat out a mouthful of water, and as the tongue-shaped arrow in his mouth was about to curl up and devour someone, he suddenly remembered the saying that even when beating a dog, one must consider its owner. This made him quickly disperse the little bit of Demon Power in his mouth and turn to ask Zhang Xuezhou.
"Um?"
A sharp glint flashed in Zhang Xuezhou's eyes.
Demons are indeed different. Demons like Pilan and Lu Baibai have extremely high levels of knowledge, while Jin Wanliang sees only the law of the jungle. He eats anyone he can defeat, and humans are on his list of prey.
Just like when they traveled and ate their way through the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Jin Wanliang was clearly still the same person.
At this point, being so hungry, the fact that he still asked Zhang Xuezhou was already one of the few acts of courtesy Jin Wanliang showed.
Zhang Xuezhou wasn't thinking about how to teach them; he knew very well that demons were like that and wouldn't change just because of a few words.
Even when he returns to the real world and loses consciousness, Zhang Xuezhou may face Jin Wanliang's covetousness for food, causing the latter to waver between eating and not eating.
His intimidating gaze caused Jin Wanliang to stagger backward, eventually losing control of his bladder and urinating on the ground.
"Father... father, I've been drinking water for so many years," Jin Wanliang stammered. "I'm so hungry, I want to eat something!"
"It hasn't been many years. You've been trapped underground by the formation for less than a month, but it's felt like an eternity!"
Zhang Xuezhou shook his head; when he reached out, he already had three Grain Avoidance Pill in his fingers.
One pill would be enough for an ordinary person, but Zhang Xuezhou tripled the potency of the medicine for Jin Wanliang.
"These pills are Grain Avoidance Pill. One pill can keep a human full for half a month and replenish the body's essence. You should not feel hungry after eating three pills," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"This is great stuff!"
Jin Wanliang overjoyed, and excitedly rubbed his two forelimbs back and forth for a while.
He was just a lowly demon who had never seen much good stuff. Even when he lived with the Golden Toad Dharma King, he was often hungry, sometimes going three days without a meal, and being able to eat any live food was already considered a blessing.
For Jin Wanliang, things involving sorcery and elixirs were profound and complex, things he had only heard of but rarely encountered.
Looking at the three pills in Zhang Xuezhou's hand, the strong medicinal aroma wafted over, and his hands and feet couldn't help but tremble for a while.
After spitting out several mouthfuls of water, Jin Wanliang finally put the Grain Avoidance Pill that Zhang Xuezhou handed him into his mouth.
His demonic body's mouth didn't look big, but his throat was indeed very large.
Before Jin Wanliang Grain Avoidance Pill pills, they had already slipped down his throat and into his stomach.
Still hungry... sss
The three Grain Avoidance Pill were only the size of dates, and from a food perspective, they couldn't possibly make one feel full, but Jin Wanliang soon felt his stomach become full.
He even felt his stomach was very full.
His round belly was full of water he had drunk over the past few days, but in a short time, Jin Wanliang felt that everything had turned into food.
The power he had lost due to hunger was rapidly returning, and his Demon Power surged forth like a spring.
In just a short period of time, Jin Wanliang felt that he had returned to his peak condition.
He could even see the ulcerated area of his genitals, which had been cut and festered, starting to bleed, and it seemed as if it had been stimulated to grow new flesh in a short period of time.
"An elixir! Godfather, the one you gave me was an elixir!"
Jin Wanliang trembled for a while, and when he pointed at himself, Demon Power flowed through his body, and he transformed into human form in an instant.
The transformation technique did not deplete the Demon Power within his body; on the contrary, it rapidly replenished itself after being used up.
Jin Wanliang's senses had never been so powerful before; he even felt that he was about to undergo a metamorphosis into a demonic form and ascend to higher realms.
He looked around at the scenery above and wondered for a moment if he was hallucinating again.
