This talisman was called the body substitute talisman, and could be surrounded by an object to transform into their own appearance, the real body was transferred to another place, so as to completely get out of this trouble. However, the material of this substitution talisman was very difficult to find, the whole Kunlai almost can not find flowers and plants needed for production of the substitution talisman, and finally Lu Ming had to ask someone to go to the herb market for several months before finally waiting for the seller, and almost spend most of his savings just to buy a little bit of material.

And, the chances of success in making this substitution talisman was not very good, those materials were all used up to make only this one, which could be used in order to encounter this situation. He has never fought a battle that he was not sure of, if he was not 100% sure he would be okay, he would not have gone to his death like this.

After Lu Ming used the divine sense to check the direction of the crowd’s escape, he found that everyone had escaped hundreds of meters, then put down his heart, ready to tear the spell to escape.

But at that moment, a snow-white spirit bird suddenly sprang out from behind and flew towards Lu Ming at a very fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the bird flew to Lu Ming’s side and took the talisman out of his hand with one mouthful. It flew around Lu Ming twice, with a very smug expression, deliberately waving around in front of Lu Ming, obviously showing off its abilities.

Lu Ming changed his expression, gritted his teeth and looked at the bad bird in front of him, glared at it indignantly, and looked behind him towards the herd of beasts that kept coming after him.

The group of foreign beasts seems to have never seen a living person, curious about the appearance of new and strange creatures, eyes shining with a bloodthirsty green light, mouths open wide, from time to time there is saliva underground, the ground was immediately burned out a large pit, which gave Lu Ming chills. There were dozens of the foreign beasts, each huge, and with a strongly corrosive saliva, if caught up, it is expected that even his bone wouldn’t survive.

Lu Ming took a deep breath, collected his mind, and ran ahead. 233 seemed to have noticed the current situation, and with a slight anxiety in his voice, he transmitted to him, “Host, with your current power, you can’t solve so many beasts, and the material for the replacement talisman is gone, what should we do now?”

Lu Ming pondered for a moment, and then said, “The only way now is to catch the spirit bird and take back the replacement talisman.”

233 said, “The spirit bird is the most intelligent beast in the Water Swamp Secret Realm, whether you can catch it or not is not to mention, the magic Artifacts for catching the spirit bird will cost a huge amount of aura, besides, if you take back the talisman later, will you have enough aura to use successfully?”

Lu Ming said helplessly, “There is no other way, for the time being, you will direct me to catch the bird.”

The first thing that happened was that Lu Ming took out a net of magic Artifacts from space, and after a few words of mumbling, the net expanded several times.

 If you catch this bird later, you will have to roast it and eat it.

Lu Ming, under the command of 233, pounced on the bird with a huge net. The bird is very smart, dodging, very flexible. Half an hour has passed, Lu Ming panted while running to catch it, but couldn’t even touch a feather, almost completely draining the aura. And the spirit bird apparently took interest in Lu Ming chasing after it, almost looking very much like playing with each other.

Lu Ming looked at the bird with a headache, and glanced behind him at the giant beasts that were still persistently pursuing him, and suddenly shed some tears. It was really better to plan than to change, obviously foolproof things will be halfway through the side, now riding a tiger is difficult, but will be their own whole set in it.

233 hurriedly yelled, “Host, southeast direction, quick!”

Lu Ming heard the words, the body was actually several times faster than the brain, hurriedly threw the hand net out. The spirit bird was tired of playing with Lu Ming and had let its guard down for a while, so it didn’t expect to lose its mind for a while and was caught. It fluttered its wings and chirped a few times, claws scratching desperately at the net trapping it, but it could not break free, could only drop its head and whine, it really looked a bit pitiful.

Lu Ming did not have any sympathy for it, he coldly glanced at the bird, pulled the substitute talisman out of its mouth from the net, and said indifferently, “You are using your life to tell others that if you don’t do it, you won’t die.”

He took a deep breath and tore open the substitute charm.

As the spell was torn open, a huge force suddenly came towards Lu Ming. Before he could react, his body was torn away by the powerful force, and he lost consciousness immediately afterwards, falling into a coma.

When Lu Ming woke up, he found himself in a huge cave.

He opened his dazed eyes and looked around, except for a few boulders scattered not far away, the cave was almost all covered with purple and blue flowers. From a distance, it looked as if it were a sea of purple flowers. What was more peculiar was that from time to time, there are bright yellow spots of light emerging from the flowers, and then slowly rising, floating in various parts of the cave. The light was faint but enough to see clearly the environment inside the cave.

Lu Ming frowned and pondered for a moment, this scene could only appear in a romance novel. How could it be so familiar?

Lu Ming stood up and turned around twice, but his brain was racing, until he walked to the middle of the cave and saw a clear spring emitting a dark luster, Lu Ming only completely reacted. He had inadvertently arrived at the place where Sang Wusheng had detoxified Shen Yanyan from the demon poison.

Lu Ming could not help but stiffen up thinking about it, cautiously looking around, he would not unknowingly spoil the good things of others, right?

Lu Ming willed the divine sense to explore all over the cave, found that there was no one’s breath around, even no one has ever set foot here, then breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Ming gathered his aura in his palm, but found that he had lost so much aura that he could hardly use any more spells, thinking that it was probably due to the excessive consumption of the substitution talisman he had used.

Lu Ming thought about it and simply sat down in the cave, waiting for his aura to recover. If he went out now, he may run into other dangers, so it’s better to wait first. In addition, if there was no accident, Jing Mo should be able to detect his location soon.

Lu Ming closed his eyes and was about to adjust his spiritual energy when he suddenly felt a slight tingling sensation at his fingertips. Lu Ming opened his eyes and saw a small dark red flying insect resting on his finger, and the tingling sensation was immediately conveyed clearly.

The most abundant aura in the Water Swamp Secret Realm, the absorption speed will only increase, not slow down. The company’s main goal was to get the company’s products back to the market. It seemed to be necessary to get out.

Lu Ming did not doubt it, so he stood up and prepared to leave. Lu Ming was shocked and tried to get up, but found that all his strength had been taken away in a moment, and he didn’t have any energy to stand up.

The next thing he knew, a strange and familiar feeling suddenly rushed to his heart, his body inexplicably began to heat up. Lu Ming gasped, forced himself to calm down, but found that it was impossible to restrain the increasingly clear desire inside his body, as if a tiny flame, with the wind blowing more and more vigorous, as if he was in a blaze of fire, almost all his reasoning burned out.

He tugged haphazardly at the lapels of his chest, his body pressed against the ground, and the cool touch made Lu Ming let out a secret moan of relief. But soon he realized that this would only put him in an even more icy dilemma, his white body gradually flushed slightly red, the bit of coldness making him feel more clearly the pain he could hardly relieve, and the constant screaming thirst.

Lu Ming was a little ashamed, biting his lower lip tightly, his face showing an abnormal red color, and turned over with all his strength, his legs propped up on the ground, his head thrown back, and his two hands clenching the dirt on the ground as if this was the only way to relieve some of the pain. Unfortunately the sudden desire came surging making Lu Ming’s heart so panicked that he didn’t know what to do, but his mouth was breathing heavier and heavier, and his heart was beating like a drum.

“Shixiong, what’s wrong with you?” An abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the quiet cave.

After Jing Mo sent the group to a safe place and settled down, he immediately followed Lu Ming’s scent all the way to the cave without stopping. The moment he saw Lu Ming, the anger and rage in his stomach disappeared in a flash.

Jing Mo looked at the youth who was moaning in pain not far away, and his legs suddenly stopped as he tried to get closer to the other side, only to look at the other side somewhat dumbfounded, his eyes not blinking, but his breath suddenly tightened.

Just a few steps ahead, the handsome young man was lying on his back on the ground. The clothes on the body were almost ripped open, the white body was exposed, the smooth shoulders and chest flushed with a slight red, a pair of long and slender legs were helplessly curled up. The other side seems to have sensed someone approaching and slowly looked sideways towards where Jing Mo was.

Lu Ming’s eyes were filled with tears because of the pain, which slowly fell down the corners of his eyes. The cheeks are abnormally flushed, and the lips are bloodied from the teeth, making them appear even redder. When Lu Ming saw clearly that the visitor was his brother, his heart was slightly relieved, and his voice became hoarse with desire, as if he was trying to suppress something, and he whispered to the other side, “Jing Mo.”

Jing Mo’s brain suddenly rumbled loudly, this cry actually provoked all his desires in an instant, making his remaining reason completely collapse. He could no longer hold back his inner urge and walked quickly towards Lu Ming, lowering his head and kissing him hard on his full lips.
