Chapter 397: Each with Their Own Sinister Designs

Right then, the system's voice echoed in his ears. [Ding, congratulations host. Your Danger Critical Strike underwent an evolution and was upgraded to Danger Critical Extinguisher.]

After hearing it, Li Yunmu sobered up and returned to his normal state.

"Extinguisher?"

Li Yunmu, who had already returned to his normal state, was greatly surprised.

He hadn't expected that the trip would surprisingly yield such an enormous harvest. The original Danger Critical Strike was already considered as domineering since it condensed all of his strength into one wave of blade energy.

When he was an ordinary crystal flux disciple, he could injure a gold crystal flux disciple using this attack. And when it had underwent an evolution and was upgraded to Danger Critical Extinguisher, it became the weapon of a death god to harvest lives.

Li Yunmu wanted to understand what was going, but he was in extreme danger at that moment.

After the extinguisher attack had fallen, all the ants in an area of a hundred meters radius with him acting as the center had been massacred. But the several hundred dead ants couldn't force the insect monsters to retreat.

Given the mental capabilities of the ants, they only knew how to act on instinct and couldn't understand fear or retreat.

After the extinguisher had killed several hundred of them, they simply went even more crazy. It was as if Li Yunmu's previous actions had completely enraged the ants, to the point that all of them had blown their bugle horns in succession.

Instantly, even more ants appeared.

"Minor Reversal."

Seeing that, Li Yunmu didn't hesitate in using the vitality stored in his body to use a Minor Reversal on himself. Instantly, the strength he had lost by using Danger Critical Strike began to quickly return to him.

The next instant, Li Yunmu's body which was restoring its strength flashed. He divided into two and then those two divided into four and four to eight.

"Kill them all for me."

Li Yunmu had finally summoned his shadows from the mid sea region on western coast of distant Blue Moon Island.

He only left behind ninth and tenth shadows in the mid sea region while Li Yun, Li Feng, Li Tian, Li De, Li Mei, Li Lan, Li Zhu, and Li Zi had returned to his side.

The instant the shadows combined hands, the situation changed in the blink of an eye. They formed a circle to protect Li Yunmu, and then each of them began to fight with the densely packed and inexhaustible giant ants in front of them.

"You all, protect me and hold on for the time being."

Li Yunmu, who was at the center, sat down crossed-legged.

Although Minor Reversal had restored some of his strength, he had used Danger Critical Extinguisher which had used up all his strength in one strike. So how could his condition have been restored to its peak in such a short time?

Truthfully, Li Yunmu's present condition was only a bit better compared to that of physical flux experts. He could use physical strength of twenty-something oxen at most, which was far inferior from his peak strength of thirty-five oxen.

As for flux energy, he had exhausted all of it.

After overdrawing the flux energy, regardless if it was Violent Blade, Wind God Tornado Kick, Insect Step, or any other flux battle skill, all of their effects were greatly reduced.

Without the assistance of flux energy, even if they were still pretty good physical skills, their threat and effects were naturally greatly weakened.

For example, Insect Step. If Li Yunmu used this skill without the assistance of flux energy and only relied on physical strength, then not only would his movement speed not go as high, but he would also be less agile.

The true Insect Step which was unleashed with the help of flux energy had countless variables in every step and allowed him to shift his body at all times, instead of just bursting forth with brute force.

All the other flux skills were the same. Fortunately, Li Yunmu's eight shadows weren't influenced by his weak state.

Otherwise, it would've been a disaster!

The eight shadows could protect him. It was equivalent to eight Li Yunmus in their peak state, fighting a united battle.

That sort of collective fighting greatly increased their strength, making one plus one equal to eleven and not two.

The situation had changed within a split second.

Regardless of from where the ants were coming, all of them were killed by the eight shadows battling together, thus creating a vacuum of ants behind their backs. Li Yunmu used that time to quickly restore his condition.

He first took out a batch of extreme grade power grain and swallowed it without any hesitation. After eating more than a hundred extreme grade power grains, he could sense his strength returning.

From the previously barely over then, it quickly rose to twenty oxen. Before long, it rose to twenty-five oxen, and after all the power grains were digested, it had risen to thirty oxen.

After that, he took out a flux binding pill.

Flux binding pill? Yes, it was a flux binding pill. But what was he doing with it at that time?

The answer could be quickly seen.

Li Yunmu began to rotate the flux energy in his body according to a fixed path to absorb more flux energy and began to draw the energy from the flux binding pill. That was right. It was the biggest difference between the flux binding pills of the Origin World and flux energy crystals of Earth.

The flux binding pills came from gathering the flux energy from the dimensional space and refining it while the flux energy crystal was a notch inferior to it. It was created after the dimensional monsters absorbed flux energy and condensed it.

Thus, the formed could not only be used to open the flux points, but it could also be consumed to quickly replenish the flux energy during battle.

As for the latter, the flux energy crystal could only be used to open the flux points to increase one's cultivation and couldn't be absorbed directly to replenish flux energy.

This was the reason why the prices of flux binding pills were so high.

It could quickly restore one's strength at the most crucial time, which was equivalent to granting them another life. But the flux energy crystals were different. They were the reason why the humans thought of the dimensional monsters as natural concocting furnaces.

Within the Origin World, as long as any flux expert had some extra contribution points, they would purchase flux binding pills. Li Yunmu naturally also did the same.

Although he was a newcomer, but he was more wealthy compared to what others imagined. He quickly used a flux binding pill.

At that moment, after crazily running for roughly half an hour, three people returned back to the beach. They informed the others about what had happened in the jungle. When Wang Yan heard it, she almost collapsed.
