Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 291 The Fire of Dual Cultivation
The fishy smell of humus was steaming in the deep rainforest where vines hung down. The "old shaman" Yaki Toto held the fourth-level sword given by Li Xiang and led the way.

A group of nine people are traveling through the Amazon jungle, trying to "subdue demons and monsters" and restore peace to this place. It has a bit of the flavor of Journey to the West.

Well, this is equivalent to crossing the "Lion Camel Ridge".

They have entered the "Devil's Land", where the ecology has been completely changed and the various dangerous environments are terrifying.

It can be said that: the rotten and fishy wind corrodes the battle robes, and the miasma surges into the sky like a tide; the ghost boa is entangled with its scales and grows blades, and the corpse fireflies corrode the bones and dye the knives green; the withered vines are hidden and the red pupils are flashing, and the turbid swamps are floating with rotten claws and fangs; the poisonous miasma condenses into blades and hangs thousands of feet, and the black river meanders and devours people.

The "old shaman" Yaki Toto was not afraid at all. He swung his sword, and the moment the blade split and strangled the banyan tree's aerial roots, a shrill scream came from afar.

"Watch me." Yao Yao took the first step. Her armor was carefully designed by herself. Li Xiang carefully condensed it to make it fit her body perfectly and outline her graceful figure to the extreme.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

Yao Yao fired a burst of shots with his assault rifle, and the bullets accurately penetrated the eye sockets of the three decayed jaguars.

An anaconda was lying in wait, preparing for a surprise attack. Xu Xuan waved his hand, and a wind blade flew out, easily cutting off its head.

At the same time, Zhao Xueqing, Lei Xiaohui and Lei Jiaming also picked up their rifles and sniped the "zombie animals" in the distance. It can be said that every shot hit the head and they were having a lot of fun.

Luo Feifei pointed her sword at the sky, and the extremely cold air instantly froze the swamp a hundred meters away. Under the ice, twelve parasitic black caimans were ramming frantically. Luo Feifei left a trail of afterimages, strolled over, and returned in an instant.

A hundred meters away, the twelve black caimans lay quietly under the frozen swamp, broken into seven or eight pieces, unable to move. With the blessing of her "sharp" ability, the White Tiger Sword was unmatched, and it was many times sharper than Li Xiang's "Ice Sword Qi".

A group of fluorescent frogs swarmed over, and Lei Xiaohui and Zhang Youyou each released flames. Lei Xiaohui's was a soft flaming whip, which made crackling sounds as it swung, sweeping away a large area of frogs.

Zhang Youyou controlled a sea of fire, which made the fluorescent frogs sizzle and ooze oil. The red color of the flames made everyone's bodies glow red, with a hint of gold.

"Brother Xiang, this area may need to be purified by fire. There are countless of these contaminated or controlled puppets. How can we kill them all? It would be better to just burn them all." Lei Xiaohui suggested.

Zhang Youyou was also excited and said, "Xiaohui and I are good at this, so you can leave it to us. We will ensure that the fire is controlled within a range of 200 to 300 kilometers and will not burn those intact places."

When their fire is burning, even the rainy season cannot stop it, because the fire they release is not ordinary fire.

Li Xiang shook his head and said, "The beast will move away. If we don't eliminate the root cause, it won't work no matter how much forest we burn. The most urgent task is to find the 'mastermind'. Once we eliminate the mastermind, these contaminated animals and humans will immediately lose their ability to move. It won't be too late to burn them then."

"Old Shaman" Yaki Toto: "..." He knew that the warriors summoned by Paya were powerful, but he didn't expect that they were all so powerful.

Li Xiang glanced at Zhang Youyou and Xu Xuan, thinking about something. He noticed something different about Zhang Youyou.

Although Zhang Youyou and Xu Xuan are still at the first level, their strength has improved greatly since the last time they met.

Especially Zhang Youyou's fire, which is very unique.

Lei Xiaohui, Chiba Xuexu, Chiba Chaolu and Zhang Youyou all "play with fire", but the fire of these four people is quite different.

Lei Xiaohui's fire is Taoist fire, full of Taoist charm and spirituality, so she can condense all kinds of flaming swords and even flaming vehicles, which are ever-changing; Chiba Xuexu is an Onmyoji, and her fire is emitted by summoning the shikigami Red Prajna, which is the red lotus karma fire from the underworld hell, full of ghostly aura, and belongs to the ghost fire; Chiba Chaolu's fire is the smoke fire of the underground lava, which is domineering and fierce, with a smell of sulfur and full of poisonous miasma.

Zhang Youyou's was slightly different. Li Xiang hadn't noticed it before, because he had seen few fire-type transcendents at that time, and Zhang Youyou's fire cultivation was still shallow. Now Zhang Youyou's fire characteristics gradually emerged, and hers was "double cultivation fire". She controlled a sea of fire. Compared with before, the fire waves were now mixed with a little light gold in the red, and the shape was like liquid glass, and Xu Xuan's wind-type spiritual power was hidden in it. The energy of the two formed a closed loop in the sea of fire, which was a sea of fire composed of many spiritual energy vortices intertwined with wind and fire. Therefore, when the two joined forces, the wind helped the fire and the fire increased the power of the wind.

"This is a dual cultivation that complements each other. Although the two of them are currently at the first level, they are far superior to ordinary first-level transcendents. After joining forces, their combat power will exceed that of a second-level transcendent. Even if two second-level transcendents fight against them, they may not be able to gain much advantage."

Li Xiang fell into deep thought. He recalled the incident at "Yueio's Inn", where he acted as the yin and yang medium for the twin magatama. At that time, Chiba Yukio also joined in, and the four of them practiced together, which seemed to be similar to the method of "dual cultivation".

But at that time I was simply helping them coordinate the balance of yin and yang energy, and did not incorporate the method of dual cultivation.

"Everything is for cultivation. If I can greatly improve my strength and complete my spiritual body, it seems that being a scumbag is not unacceptable." Once this thought came up, he couldn't help it.

"Since Xiwu's ice spiritual power can make the 'Ice Sword Qi' rune active, if I practice dual cultivation with Luo Feifei, wouldn't it be even better..."

Luo Feifei also has many special abilities, including the "sharp" attribute that can enhance the attack power of sword energy.

In addition, there is also a difference between Chiba Yugiri's ice crystal energy and Luo Feifei's ice power. Chiba Yugiri's ice power comes from deep in the earth veins and is colder and harsher. It only has extreme ice but no water. In addition, it balances energy with the morning dew and blends with the scent of sulfur. When attacking, it will be accompanied by corrosive ice mist formed by volcanic ash, which can corrode alloy armor.

Luo Feifei is an ice-type derived from the water-type, which is softer, more delicate and varied. If Chiba Yugiri is the "ground-veined black ice" with the potential to become a "geological-level strategic weapon" in the future, then Luo Feifei is a "water-derived ice-type", with a focus on being an "environmental control master" in terms of supernatural powers. With the electric light phantom armor, she has also derived a "water and electricity dual cultivation" fighting style.

Li Xiang has a very special physique, and he is generous and tolerant. If he becomes a sea king, "the sea embraces all rivers", it may have extremely magical effects. Of course, this is just Li Xiang's fantasy. Whether this path can be successful and how magical it will be is still unknown.

The mud on the river bank suddenly boiled, and three humanoid puppets broke out of the ground. The "old shaman" Yaki Toto suddenly let out a roar of grief and anger.

Li Xiang was brought back to reality from his reverie by his angry roar.

He understood instantly that the three humanoid puppets were probably the old shaman's tribesmen, or perhaps, people who were relatively close to him.

The "Old Shaman" Yaki Toto roared to the sky, tears of blood flowing from his eyes. The other people looked at each other, not knowing whether they should take action.

In particular, there was a pregnant woman with a swollen belly. She was probably eight or nine months pregnant and was about to give birth.

But it was obvious that at this moment, the fetus had already died in the womb.

Luo Feifei came closer and whispered, "That child... has been transformed into... a beehive in the mother's womb."

She has the ability of clairvoyance, so she can see things that others cannot see. Her ability is better than the most advanced B-ultrasound, CT scan, and MRI.

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked to see that many soldier ants were swarming out from the belly button of the pregnant woman, carrying nerve spores and scattering them all around.

"Kill!" Li Xiang gave an order and everyone attacked together.

A series of rifle bullets, flames, seas of fire, and wind blades swept towards the three humanoid puppets at the same time, submerging them in an instant.

Immediately, Li Xiang manipulated the terrain, causing the ground to collapse, and the surrounding soil rolled towards the center like waves, and soon, all the "filth" was buried deep underground.

The "old shaman" Yaki Toto knelt down, his body trembling and crying silently.
