Chapter 225

I Don’t Want Big Honey Peas Anymore

“What?”

Mu Yu pointed to the dismembered limbs on around them and dark-purple blood decorating the stone walls. Following further along, Qiao Xue saw the blood flowing toward the carving.

“We can use the bloodbats’ blood instead of our own.”

“We need a tactic to catch them and extract their blood, then,” stated Qiao Xue, figuratively slapping herself for being impulsive before.

Mu Yu gave Xiaoshuai a tug. “If I blow up the bloodbats, would you be able to manipulate the spiritual qi here to collect the spraying blood?”

“I can. More importantly, though, how are you planning to blow them up?”

“Treat them to an explosion pill,” Mu Yu answered with a smug grin.

“Don’t go overboard, or you’ll blow them to particles and dry their blood.”

“I’ll try my best.”

Mu Yu slashed his finger to goad the bats. They screamed but maintained distance owing to the flame. He offered his blood to the explosion pill and injected it with his spiritual energy. He left the premise of the stone door. In the best-case scenario, the pill would blow the door up. In the less ideal scenario, he’d have bloodbats’ blood to feed the door. He hurled the explosion pill. The bloodbats blurred through the air.

“Bang!” commanded Mu Yu.

“Is it a treasure or something?”

“We should destroy the screen,” declared Qiao Xue.

“The fishes won’t attack us for that, will they?”

Mu Yu swore to not underestimate anything at Second Heaven after multiple crises. Additionally, he was willing to bet the two, like other fiend beasts, weren’t items on display.

“Any brighter ideas?”

Qiao Xue struck the light screen but only generated a gentle ripple. Mu Yu stabbed it using Shadow Splitter, barely sinking it in before rebounding. Mu Yu released his control on his sword, leading to it impaling the rocky wall. The two experimented again without any results to show.

“The two fishes were the ones who warned trespassers to not enter,” reported Xiaoshuai, swinging his claw around. “The screen works based on the same principle as a spring. Whatever force you impose on it, an equal force will repel you.”

“I don’t get it,” expressed Qiao Xue.

“In other words, you can’t break through using brute force, display hostility or express ill will. Wait, how do I know all this?” Xiaoshuai closed his eyes and pinched his chin. He glided over and pushed up against the screen. As he said, he rebounded straight back.

Mu Yu pulled Xiaoshuai over. “You sure?”

Xiaoshuai addressed the itch on his butt cheek. “My bad, my bad. The big honey pea distracted me. Let me try again. I don’t want to eat a big honey pea. I don’t want to eat a big honey pea. I don’t want to eat a big honey pea. “

Mu Yu watched Xiaoshuai with an elbow tugged up. Xiaoshuai bounced and bounced then plastered himself to the screen. By some magic, he passed through.
