Chapter 213: Temptation from Mushrooms

They knew that the Poisoned Water Swamp was dangerous, and that there were countless people who had lost their halberds here.

But they never imagined that the creatures here had evolved to such an extent that they could use this illusion to attract prey.

Lift your foot and implicate a piece of mycelium.

Looking at the soft and harmless mycelium, everyone had no bottom in their hearts.

The only thing to be thankful for is that they have not deviated from the course they are on.

Then the question is, the corpses of demon cultivators can be seen in the sea of flowers and swamps, and where did the corpses of those demon cultivators go in this land that is infested by fungi.

", this thing is growing."

Zeng Jin let out a low snort, and when everyone looked over, they saw that the mycelium under his feet was rapidly elongated, like a soft silk flower, clinging to Zeng Jin's body.

Zeng Jin, who was confused by this weak appearance, was attacked in the next second.

He was stabbed in the calf, leaving no traces.

The mycelium was crushed by Zeng Jin, and then his body was examined, and there was nothing unusual.

Yao Huai walked over, clasped Zeng Jin's arm, and his spiritual power invaded to probe the other party's body, but he also found no change.

"Senior brother, I, I'm fine."

Zeng Jin whispered, obviously everything in his body was as usual, but he always felt a chill in his heart.

"Ahem."

He coughed a few times and felt a little itchy in his throat.

"Senior brother, let's get out of here quickly."

This place was so strange, and if he stayed any longer, he felt like he was going to melt here again.

"Well, let's go."

made a decision immediately, Yao Huai led the team to leave, and this time Yao Huai accepted a careless attitude.

The more you go inside, the more dangerous it becomes, and in this unknown realm, keep in awe and not be careless.

"Ahem."

Zeng Jin, who was in the middle of the team, coughed a few more times, I don't know if it was an illusion, I always felt that there was a foreign body in my throat.

I want to cough, but I can't.

Rubbing his throat, Zeng Jin's eyes stared around vigilantly.

The kind of flesh white, continuous on the surface, the mycelium on the fungus blanket, swaying.

Zeng Jin took a few more looks, and he had an urge to devote himself to it.

It's nice to be a fungus.

He thought.

The pace slowed down.

After coughing a few more times, Zeng Jin touched the corner of his mouth, and a little blood oozed out.

Zeng Jin didn't care about erasing it, and the residual smell of blood in his mouth made Zeng Jin feel a little hungry.

Well......

I'm so hungry.

His nose moved, and the smell of meat was faintly in the air.

Strange, didn't he already go to the valley, how could he be hungry?

Zeng Jin, who was in thought, had fallen at the end of the line.

Zeng Jin, who was plagued by hunger, saw a few beautiful small mushrooms growing under a stone not far away.

The milky white umbrella cover is like milk, and the sweet smell makes Zeng make a gurgling sound in his stomach.

He swallowed, the pain in his throat forcing him to want to absorb a little water.

The mushrooms look delicious.

Zeng Jin's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had found a good way.

This kind of trivial matter, don't bother his teammates, with this thought, he quietly distanced himself from the team and walked to the stone.

He squatted down, looked at the palm-sized milky white mushroom, smelled the perfect smell of milk mixed with meat, Zeng Jin stretched out his hand, and his eyes were full of desire to eat.

"Zeng Jin!"

Just as his palm was about to touch the mushroom, there was a shout.

Zeng Jin remembered that this voice belonged to that Senior Sister Lu, and he also remembered that he should hate that Senior Sister Lu very much.

He turned his head a little impatiently and shook his hand in the direction of Senior Sister Lu.

Zeng Jin saw that a lot of mycelium had grown on his hands, and the slender mycelium looked at it, a little fluffy, like countless small mouths, absorbing nutrients in the air.

Because of Zeng Jin's action, the hyphae shook and precipitated spores.

The spores, which were difficult to see with the naked eye, floated in the direction of Lu Yun, and Zeng Jin showed a wonderful look.

Ah, if Senior Sister Lu can become the same existence as himself, Wang will definitely be very happy.

King?

Hey, who is the king?

I don't understand.

Well, I don't want to, anyway, just listen to the king and find more companions.

But before you can find a companion, you have to make yourself well-fed.

Zeng Jin looked at those mushrooms again, and always felt that the mushrooms were a little bigger and more fragrant.

Because of hunger, something was surging in his throat because of hunger, and it wanted to break through the ground.

"Zeng Jin!"

There was another shout, this time Zeng Jin didn't look at Lu Yun, and went straight to catch the mushroom.

The sword light was everywhere, the spores floating towards Lu Yun were crushed, the spiritual power was drumming, Lu Yun took a step, and the tail needle in his hand was thrown out.

As swift as wind and thunder, he came to Zeng Jin in the blink of an eye, and inserted it between Zeng Jin and those mushrooms.

With the sword intent of killing intent, Zeng Jin was shrouded in the face of an extreme sense of crisis, Zeng Jin blinked in a trance, and saw that the milky white mushrooms in front of him turned into a gray color like dead meat.

At the top of the mushroom umbrella cover, facial features grow, like those living people.

Those facial features roared and seducted.

"Eat, eat."

"The king is waiting for us."

"Listen to the king, and do not disobey the king's commands, and help the king to find more companions."

Voices swirled in his mind, making Zeng Jin instinctively want to follow those whisper-like voices to act.

Well, he's a human, why should he listen to a mushroom?

Wrong!

He is...... Person.

The shocking light exploded in his eyes, and the whole person seemed to suddenly wake up, Zeng Jin's eyes widened, and he saw mycelium emerging from his fingertips.

The mycelium almost came into contact with the mushrooms.

He saw that the organs belonging to the mouth on those mushrooms had opened, and he was waiting for him to throw himself into the net.

His shoulders were pulled out, and he was pulled to his feet.

"Are you awake?"

Lu Yun looked at Zeng Jin's frightened look for the rest of his life, and motioned to everyone not to come over for the time being.

"I, what's wrong with me?"

Zeng Jin spoke with a trill, and when he opened his sleeves, he saw that his arms were covered with mycelium.

These mycelium seem to be living creatures, and if you listen carefully, you can hear those mycelium talking.

They were calling out to his fellow man.

"You're controlled by mycelium."

Lu Yun cut the other party's arm, and as the blood rolled down, streaks of mycelium spread out of his body.

The hyphae covered the wound, but between breaths, the wound healed.

This speed of healing is not possible for those who have entered this kind of cultivation without the assistance of external objects.

Zeng Jin's eyelids jumped.

He knew that it was caused by those hyphae in his body.

If you have these mycelium, if you let yourself be a member of these fungi, will you always have this strong self-healing ability?

Maybe one day I can surpass Senior Sister Lu and Senior Brother Yao.

No, these two people are nothing, one day they will follow the king out of here and into the human world and become the only king.

Joy erupted from Zeng Jin's eyes, and he subconsciously lowered his head, not wanting Lu Yun to see the look in his eyes.

The temptation from the mushroom made him not want to be a human anymore.
