Chapter 225 It was their own carelessness.
"Oh, right, those leeches..."

After the initial joy subsided, everyone finally remembered the leeches that had been chasing them earlier.

They didn't think that Nan Ran would wipe out the mountain leeches completely.

After all, they could all see and had heard about Nan Ran's cultivation level.

Nanran's greatest reliance was that Fiery Lion.

But at this moment, the Flame Lion was still asleep.

Frostbeast does have the ability to fight, but Frostbeast focuses more on defense.

Stopping those leeches shouldn't be a problem.

Kill them all...

That's not very realistic.

Nan Ran said calmly, "Those leeches all died by accident."

Meng Duanyue and the others were all stunned: "What?!"

"died?!"

"How can this be?"

"Leech-like monsters are the hardest to kill, so how come..."

All dead?
To date, no one on the entire Beast Continent has been able to successfully kill these swarms of leech-like monsters.

In particular, these leeches, whether they live on dry land or in deep or shallow water, all share a chilling characteristic...

That is, even if you split it in two, this thing can still find a way to sneak into your body, attach itself to your skin, and suck your blood and vital essence until it drains you into a dried-up corpse.

Nan Ran sensed something was off and said in surprise, "Leechs can be killed with salt, lots and lots of salt!"

Then, she noticed the shock on Meng Duanyue's face: "You guys don't know, do you?" Of course!

If they had known, they wouldn't have found it so difficult to deal with the leech-like monsters that came with the annual beast tides. They would have been forced to watch helplessly as their companions were devoured and sucked dry, eventually turning into unrecognizable mummies!
"Since the Great Anomaly, people have still not found a better way to eliminate leech-like monsters. As a result, many places on the Beast Continent have been plagued by them for many years, with no way to deal with them and only able to fight back desperately."

Meng Duanyue said in a heavy tone: "Whenever we encounter swarms of leeches, especially the mountain leeches that are most common in dry land, they not only often appear in forests, but also frequently attack cities where people live, so many people lose their lives every year as a result."

“Even our disciples from various sects often perish while defending against the beast tides.”

She looked at Nanran with a very serious expression: "Junior Sister, are you really sure that all those leeches are dead?"

Killed with salt?

Nan Ran: ...

Let her sort this out—wait a minute! No matter how you look at it, leeches can be killed by salt!

Even if her memory is faulty, and the knowledge has passed through her mind without leaving a trace, the deaths of those leeches are the best proof of that!
The reason those leeches died was because she could utilize certain traits of the contracted beasts.

For example, the Frostbeast's freezing power, and the salt extracted from the Stone Beast's body.

The two mixed together, forming a thick layer of frozen salt frost... and sure enough, all those mountain leeches were killed.

Nan Ran simply pointed to a spot not far away, where the ground was covered with a dense layer of dark, dead leeches.

"They're all there."

Only then did Meng Duanyue and the others notice that the dark layer covering the distance was not a black dirt road, but—the corpses of mountain leeches!
hiss! !

Everyone felt their hair stand on end.

"These...these are all dead leeches?!"

Yao Ran's voice trembled slightly, unsure whether to feel fear or disgust.
