Chapter 246 Escape
The white mist that just appeared was wispy and not thick.

In just a dozen or so breaths, the forest, where the light was already dim, was completely covered by the white fog.

Under the cover of the white fog, everything around began to become hazy.

Standing near this strange rock, Jiang Yao's vision showed that the giant trees standing around were all blurry, giving people a very unreal feeling.

What is even more surprising is that both the giant tree and the strange stone behind him have some extremely illusory shadows, as if they are attached to them, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

The double images that appeared in places that were too far away were still a little unclear to Jiang Yao's eyesight.

But the strange rock was only a few inches away from him, and Jiang Yao could tell at a glance that the illusory shadow overlapping with it was the vague shadow of a big tree.

Taking a deep breath, he clasped the uneven parts of the strange rock with both hands, and then pushed off the ground with his feet.

It was just a stone that was only about one person tall. In no time, Jiang Yao had climbed onto the stone.

Looking at the illusory shadow of the big tree in front of him, he thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and grabbed it.

It was just an illusory shadow that looked unreal. He fell into the air and did not actually catch the real object.

Jiang Yao was not discouraged by this.

If it doesn’t work the first time, he will withdraw his hand and try again.

Not far away, the illusory figure carrying a large backpack, or some other blurry and strange creatures, flashed by from time to time and appeared several times in a row.

As for these things, Jiang Yao, who had suffered losses before, acted as if he had never seen them and was too lazy to pay any attention to them.

He grabbed the illusory shadow of the big tree in front of him many times. Finally, the feeling of grabbing empty space disappeared. He clearly felt that his hand had indeed landed on the solid entity.

Now that he had a firm grip, he took a deep breath and climbed directly towards the shadow of the big tree.

Originally it was just an illusory shadow of a big tree, but the higher he climbed, the more real the shadow became.

After only climbing four or five meters, the phantom had actually turned into a big green tree.

However, the strange stone under the big tree had become blurry and completely unreal in Jiang Yao's sight.

He sat down directly on a thick branch at the top of the tree.

The gray-brown bark covering the trunk and the emerald green leaves growing on the surrounding branches made Jiang Yao feel so familiar.

After that, he did not make any unnecessary moves and just waited quietly.

The fog in the mountains and forests became thicker and thicker. In less than half an hour, the surroundings were already filled with rolling white fog.

Apart from the green tree where he was standing, even the strange rock under the tree had been completely covered by thick white fog, so that Jiang Yao could no longer see any trace of it.

An indescribable sleepiness suddenly surged into his heart, but he forced himself to hold on and not let himself fall asleep.

Finally, the extremely thick white fog began to gradually become sparse until all traces of it completely disappeared.

Jiang Yao, who was originally sitting on the thick branch, stood up and pushed aside the dense branches and leaves above his head. The golden light emitted by the scorching sun in the sky was so dazzling.

Jiang Yao, who was in the state of Yin Sha body, was directly exposed to the scorching sun. Although he felt stinging and uncomfortable all over, his heart was full of joy.

Shrinking back into the dense canopy of the tree beneath him, he lowered his head and looked down.

That strange stone had long since disappeared without a trace, not even a trace left.

The surrounding trees and weeds were full of vitality and greenery. The occasional chirping of insects sounded so pleasant to Jiang Yao's ears.

"I'm back, away from that strange area, I have really returned to the jungle of Saigon..." His words were filled with deep joy, and Jiang Yao jumped down from the big tree.

For an ordinary person, falling directly from a tree that is nearly ten meters high could very likely result in being nearly killed.

But apart from the slightly louder noise of falling, Jiang Yao acted as if nothing had happened.

After standing firmly, he immediately released himself from the Yin Sha body state without saying anything else.

After returning to his normal state, he couldn't even wear the only pair of underwear on his body, and it seemed like it was about to fall off.

His current appearance was such that there was hardly any flesh or blood left, only a little skin and bones. He looked no different from a dried corpse that had just been dug out of the ground.

If he appeared on the mountain trail outside the jungle in this state, he wouldn't need to do anything extra. The climbers he met would most likely be scared to death by him.

In addition, there was an indescribable feeling of hunger that surged into Jiang Yao's heart.

Looking at the fallen leaves and rotten wood on the ground, he had a horrible urge to stuff them directly into his mouth.

On the light curtain panel, the original lifespan of thirty-two years dropped five points in a row like a roller coaster, and dropped to twenty-seven years before it finally stopped and did not continue to fall.

"Fuck your grandma..." Jiang Yao, who was originally full of joy, was a little scared after noticing the drastic drop in his lifespan on the panel. His face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't control himself at all, and started to curse.

He took out all the remaining food in the storage space and piled them on the ground.

He was extremely hungry, his whole being was dominated by appetite. He sat on the ground, and without saying a word, he didn't even bother to look closely at anything edible and just stuffed it into his mouth.

He didn't know what was in the food he just ate.

Suddenly, he felt a horrible hot current surging out of his stomach and rushing out to every part of his body.

Just like a long drought finally ending in a downpour, his dry flesh and blood, stimulated by the heat, began to become plump at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His whole body was burning hot, as if he was in a furnace. The horrible heat was rushing through his body and there was no way to vent it out.

"I just swallowed that unknown wild fruit with three purple stripes..."

In an instant, Jiang Yao reacted.

This wild fruit was stored in the storage space. Originally, he planned to test it after escaping. Only after making sure that it was non-toxic and edible would he try to eat some.

Just now, he was dominated by hunger and stuffed anything edible into his mouth.

If this terrifying heat flow had not appeared, he would never have remembered the existence of this wild fruit in his storage space.

In just a moment, the shriveled body that originally looked like a mummy had become much fuller.

That horrible feeling of hunger had long disappeared, as if he had eaten too much, and heat seemed to be surging in every part of his body.

Jiang Yao has a lot of experience in how to digest a big meal.

He jumped up from the ground and began to practice the Wild Dragon Fist.

Once, twice, three times...

Suddenly, he seemed to have understood something. Although he continued to punch and kick, many insights into the practice of the Wild Dragon Fist flooded into his mind.

The same moves, when performed by him, seemed to have more charm than before.

Finally, the surging heat in his body was completely exhausted. Jiang Yao stood up with his fists clenched, and focused his attention on the light screen on his panel.

……

"My life span has reached thirty-five again? It was clearly twenty-seven just now. Is it because of that fruit that I have increased my life span by eight years?"

The more you lack something, the more you care about it. Among all the information presented on the panel, what Jiang Yao values ​​most is undoubtedly his own lifespan.

At this moment, seeing that his life span had returned to thirty-five, he, who had been cursing just now, now had a look of surprise on his face.

"In addition to the increase in lifespan, the progress of cultivation in the Skin Refining Realm has also increased by ten points, reaching a figure of 79 percent."

"Also, my Wild Dragon Fist has gone from entry-level to proficient."

"No wonder all sorts of insights from practicing the Wilderness Dragon Fist suddenly emerged in my mind. It turns out that this is the result of the advanced practice of the technique."

"Compared to when I first started, the proficiency level of Wild Dragon Fist should be able to improve my training efficiency and increase my progress in the Skin Refining Realm!"

After checking his own lifespan, Jiang Yao browsed through the other types of information on the panel.

From the time he accidentally ate the wild fruit until now when all the heat flow was consumed, only one or two hours had passed.

But even such a short period of time brought him enormous benefits.

"Not only did it greatly improve my progress in practicing the Wild Dragon Fist, but that wild fruit also directly increased my lifespan by eight years."

"This thing is definitely a well-deserved treasure."

"There must be a lot of good things like this in that strange forest. Unfortunately, my knowledge is limited, and I can't tell which things are beneficial to me."

"If I hadn't been an ordinary person at the time and happened to smell the strange fragrance, I would have missed that wild fruit."

"I have been searching in that strange forest for so long. I might have come across a lot of good things, but I missed them all."

……

With a bit of helplessness, Jiang Yao's face was full of pain and he sighed deeply.
