Chapter 222: Shocking Results! (3)
Yun Bai naturally didn't know that there were so many people outside staring at her with all kinds of eyes, such as concern, testing, scrutiny, doubt, disdain, hope for success, curse and embarrassment... At this moment, she was very nervous because she had already activated the magic, but what she got in return was not the usual cheerful welcome from the spiritual plants, but vicious hatred and hostility. There were many complicated messages coming at the same time, which could be summarized in one sentence: You little bastard, get out of here, or I'll make you look good!
After receiving this information, Yun Bai stopped moving forward. Through her spiritual sense, she had sensed that the nearest gathering place of diamond hydrangeas was less than 300 meters away. If she took a few more steps forward, she would probably enter the opponent's attack range, and then she might be stabbed into a big hedgehog in an instant.
Since that was the case, she simply sat cross-legged on the ground, seemingly entering a state of meditation, but in fact using soul power as support to go forward to detect. This was a new detection trick that Yun Bai had recently come up with when she was practicing the soul combination skills with Mu Yun. Using soul power instead of spiritual power as support could well avoid the detection of most spiritual plants that only used spiritual power as nourishment. It was like putting on an invisible cloak for her detection. Even if she used her spiritual consciousness to detect close to the spiritual plants, she would not be discovered by the other party.
Of course, she originally thought that this trick was unlikely to be used, because most of the spiritual plants would open their arms to welcome her after sensing her approach, and she could look at them however she wanted, without any need to hide. However, the world is so interesting, she didn't expect that this trick would come in handy so soon - and it was about to make a great contribution!
Yun Bai wrapped his consciousness with soul power and released it carefully to detect. He soon found the diamond thorn balls. There were about thirty plants of different sizes. The highest grade was a mid-grade seventh grade plant, and the lowest ones were not yet graded. As he got closer, Yun Bai could see the terrifying metal-like spikes on these fire thorn balls. There were dense and tiny barbs on the tips of the thorns. If you were pierced by this thing, you would definitely take out a piece of flesh if you wanted to pull it out. The pain was self-evident.
What was even more terrifying was that these spikes were all flashing with red and black light, and inside them flowed red and black liquid, which was clearly a highly toxic substance. Although a special medicine for this highly toxic substance had long been developed, Yun Bai and his companions each received three bottles of this special medicine before entering here, but the special medicine could only detoxify, but not relieve pain. After being pricked by the diamond thorn ball, the toxin would spread rapidly, and even if the poison was detoxified, the person would still be tortured to death by the severe pain.
During the exploration, Yun Bai saw with his own eyes a mole known for its speed accidentally passing by here. It was instantly pierced by hundreds of sharp thorns and died of poisoning in the blink of an eye. Its body was like being roasted and gave off a burnt smell. This scene made Yun Bai shudder. He was so scared that he withdrew his consciousness almost instantly and couldn't help but use his hands to soothe his throbbing heart.
"I definitely can't force this. I guess my speed isn't as fast as theirs... I turned around and got scared, but in the end I didn't see anything. The key is that they don't want to communicate with me properly. Even if I force a link, I can only receive hostility and intimidation, which is useless... What should I do?" Yun Bai sat there, lost in thought.
After Yun Bai sat down motionless, the other eleven people became more active. The twelve people participating in the competition today are all the best in their respective schools. They naturally understand the nature and characteristics of the diamond thorn balls, and they all know how to successfully bring them back - but there is also the problem. Everyone knows the answer, but most people can't do it. But there is no particularly good way. Everyone can only try to use conventional means, such as giving some sweet dates before trying to pick them, or using hypnosis to try to make the diamond thorn balls confused, and then take action... There are too many such methods to list. However, these methods all have the same result without exception - poisonous stings.
Jiao Yang's approach was more direct, he adopted the method of "force against force, head on", because he was also a person with plant-related talents and could establish a connection with spiritual plants, but his talent was more inclined to make spiritual plants submit. Although his effect on the Vajra Thorn Ball was greatly reduced, it was much better than that of ordinary people - at least he was not like the other ten people, who were greeted by a wave of enthusiastic poisonous thorns as soon as they entered the enemy's shooting range.
After killing more than 30 stubborn diamond thorn balls that would rather break than bend, Jiao Yang finally found the secret to subdue them - each diamond thorn ball has a very small spike, which is thinner than a hair. If you don't check it carefully and repeatedly, you can hardly find it. This spike is connected to the soul of the diamond thorn ball. If you pull it out, it will die immediately and the soul will disappear instantly; but if you break it, it will enter a dormant state, and then you can do whatever you want - of course, there is a risk in doing this, that is, even if you take it to another place for transplantation while it is dormant, once it wakes up again and finds that someone has tampered with it, it will die immediately without hesitation! Before dying, it will shoot all the spikes on its body at you as a gift!
However, this is not a problem that Jiao Yang needs to consider, because the rules of the competition are to successfully tame and bring back a living Vajra Thorn Ball. All he has to do is to use his excellent magical powers to control the Vajra Thorn Ball that is about to run away, and then quickly find the thin thorn and break it according to the soul connection, and then use his magical powers to hypnotize it before it goes into hibernation, so as to achieve the purpose of complete control or taming.
It's easier said than done, but it still takes a lot of effort to do it, because you have to complete the hypnosis and control before the King Kong Hydrangea enters dormancy, which is technically difficult to achieve, not to mention that the higher the level of the thorn ball, the more difficult it is. Therefore, after Jiao Yang failed again and killed 18 King Kong Thorn Balls, he finally succeeded in controlling a sixth-grade mature body and brought it out intact, becoming the first contestant to complete the task and return to the main venue.
Although Jiao Yang's methods were very rough and even cruel if Yun Bai commented, it must be said that his superb talent in controlling spirits was reflected in the process. In terms of the results, he also completed the task perfectly and brought back a complete and living sixth-grade diamond thorn ball. If there were no accidents - at least from the current situation, he would have a very high chance of winning the first place. Therefore, Le Jun could not help but be proud in front of Yuan Wuhen, which made Yuan Wuhen so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He stared at the three students from his school on the big screen with his eyes blazing. The other two were in a miserable state, but Yun Bai made him stamp his feet in anxiety!
