Chapter 270 Is this one month?
"This smoke won't affect us?" Xing asked worriedly.
“Yes, this demonic mist is a trump card specifically designed to deal with the Cloud Cavalry.” Fu Xuan nodded seriously.
"Then why not let the fox-people and the Vidyadharas give it a try?" March 7 asked curiously.
She remembered that when she first introduced the Demonic Body, she was told that neither fox spirits nor the Vidyadharas would fall into the Demonic Body.
“You’ve misunderstood the Demonic Yin Body. It’s not a curse that only works on humans.” Fu Xuan shook his head.
"Fox-people are not easily swayed by demonic possession because, although they are a long-lived species, their lifespan is not infinite; while the Vidyadharas, through 'shedding scales,' shed their old world."
"In terms of demonic yin bodies alone, the immortal race is equal."
"Also, do you remember those two demonic beings transformed by the Abundant Beast in front of the inn? They were fox people." Fu Xuan sighed.
"So that's how it is." March 7th nodded dejectedly.
“However, the people of ‘The Secret Teachings of the Medicine King’ never expected that the general would dare to ask for outside help, and of course they wouldn’t make any preparations to deal with the short-lived species.” A smile finally appeared on Fu Xuan’s lips.
"Is this what General Jingyuan meant by 'surprise attack'?" Walter Yang asked.
"I dare not speak presumptuously, but I can say that the Star Core Hunter's prophecy is more accurate than my divination, and Kafka's desired future is coming true one by one." Fu Xuan's smile disappeared again.
Sometimes, she really hoped that her predictions were wrong.
But Kafka's last nine sentences...
"This is the only way we can go..." Xing said helplessly.
“It’s ‘this is the only path that leads to the best known outcome.’ If given a choice, no one would choose to jump off a cliff,” Fu Xuan sighed.
"Besides, this wasn't just my decision..."
"The duty of a diviner is to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. I don't want my choices to lead Luofu into a terrible future."
At that moment, she remembered the scorched earth from the divination.
“No, there must be some other messenger,” March 7th suddenly said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Walter Yang and Xing turned around sharply to look at March 7.
Fu Xuan was bewildered by the scene and had no idea what was going on.
"Last time in Yalilo, an army of annihilation suddenly appeared, and this time..."
"Mmm..." Before March 7th could finish speaking, Xing covered her mouth.
Walter Young also looked serious.
"W-what's wrong?" Fu Xuan asked, puzzled.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, Tabu, you can continue," Walter Young said guiltily.
Tingyun, standing to the side, squinted and glanced at March 7 almost imperceptibly.
"To get back to the point, only you can extinguish the alchemy furnace without being harmed. What do you think?" Fu Xuan asked.
“No problem,” Walter Young agreed.
Xing nodded in agreement, while only March 7th's mouth was still covered.
"I will come immediately once the smoke clears, and I will never let you fight alone."
"Understood, leave it to us." Xing nodded frantically.
Fu Xuan nodded and immediately retreated back into the great formation to wait for an opportunity.
"Ugh, let me go..." March 7th broke free from Xing's grasp.
"Phew, Xing! You almost suffocated me!" March 7th caught his breath, then put his hands on his hips and looked at Xing angrily.
"Uh...sorry, I used too much force. I'll be more careful next time..." Xing scratched his head sheepishly.
"That's more like it... Wait, there's going to be a next time?" March 7's eyes were filled with shock.
"Ahem, let's finish the divination mission first," Walter Young coughed lightly.
"Fine, I'll settle the score with you later." March 7th puffed out her cheeks, huffed angrily, and walked in front.
Walter Yang and Xing exchanged a glance and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The group walked towards the alchemy furnace.
"Wait, Miss Tingyun, why aren't you going back yet! We're very close to the alchemy furnace here!"
On March 7th, I suddenly noticed that Tingyun was still following behind.
Tingyun squinted and smiled. "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine. The general ordered me to follow you all, so I dare not disobey orders."
"Human life is at stake. Miss Tingyun, please go back. We'll explain to the general." Walter Yang's expression was somewhat serious.
"There's really no need," Tingyun smiled.
"Hehe, I spend a lot of time traveling in space. Don't be fooled by my age, I only have a little over ten years of experience."
"I'm afraid my benefactors will all live longer than me."
"Um... I'm only a month old," Xing said hesitantly, pointing to herself.
"One, a month?" Tingyun asked, somewhat bewildered.
This tall guy, who's 1.7 meters, is telling her it's only been a month?
"Oh well, don't worry about her, she's an exception," March 7 said helplessly.
"We've arrived." Walter Yang looked at the huge alchemy furnace in front of him, which was still emitting mist.
"How do I turn it off?" March 7th looked the alchemy furnace up and down.
"Just press here," Tingyun said, pointing to the button on the alchemy furnace.
On March 7th, following Tingyun's instructions, he pressed down abruptly.
A rumbling sound rang out, the alchemy furnace slowly sank downwards, the furnace body gradually stopped vibrating, and the constantly billowing smoke gradually subsided.
"The fog seems to have thinned a bit..." March 7th felt that the fog around him seemed to have lessened.
"It can't be that fast, we need to speed things up." Walter Yang continued forward, heading towards the next alchemy furnace.
After shutting down the three alchemy furnaces in succession, all the mist finally dissipated.
"Alright, done! Now the smoke is gone." March 7th clapped his hands and wiped the sweat from his brow.
At this moment, news of Fu Xuan arrived.
"Very good...very good, thank you all for your hard work. I will lead my troops to join you now."
