Chapter 198: Chapter 173: Island (20)

Wisdom Mushroom King was subdued, Thunderous Fierce Horse died, Sunshine Horse died, Grass Healing Thousand Riding Horse died, Blue Lightning Dragon was gravely injured and fell into slumber.

On Bengma Island, those with strength above Gold died, were injured, or were subdued.

Li Cunxu had long seen Bengma Island as his own; naturally, everything on the island, including the Grass Healing Horses, should belong to him.

So many Grass Healing Horses died, and Li Cunxu felt quite distressed.

But there was nothing he could do, even the lord-level power of Xiaoruan could only withstand a few hits, and every hit injured Xiaoruan. Without the guarantee of logistical support from healing pet beasts, how could Li Cunxu dare to let Xiaoruan, his highest combat power, save the horses.

“Take advantage of the fact that the herd has no leader, and quickly subdue them.”

Before subduing the horse herd, Li Cunxu set up his Fertile Pasture here.

Inside the Fertile Pasture, the livestock have a certain affection towards the pasture owner.

This makes it easier for Li Cunxu to subdue the Grass Healing Horses.

Wisdom Mushroom King, fluent in the language of the mind, acted as an interpreter for communication.

This group of Grass Healing Horses were wild and unruly mustangs, full of wildness and not easy to subdue.

Lack of courage, that was only directed at the Blue Lightning Dragon.

Moreover, the herd had previously driven away Li Cunxu, leaving them with the impression that Li Cunxu was not powerful, so they scoffed at his attempts to subdue them.

The leading Grass Healing Horse sneezed a few times and swaggered off.

In fact, it still wanted to imitate the actions of the previous generation’s horse king in driving Li Cunxu away, but it didn’t have time.

A group of dragons cannot be without a leader for a day, and naturally, a group of horses cannot be without a leader for a day either.

Not only were the Grass Healing Horses competing for leadership, but the Radiant Horses were also vying for leadership.

Li Cunxu was not angry, as he had expected this situation.

However, the idea of the Grass Healing Horses electing a leader was impossible.

Because Li Cunxu didn’t allow it.

Li Cunxu said, “Wisdom Mushroom King, what’s going on with you? It’s normal that they don’t respect me since they’ve chased me before, but you are at least a Gold level. Why don’t they respect you either?”

Wisdom Mushroom King awkwardly smiled and said, “Perhaps they don’t see me as a threat.”

“Alright.”

Li Cunxu said, “Since words can’t resolve this, let’s use force. Xiaoruan, go beat them, beat them hard. Just don’t kill them.”

Xiaoruan advanced.

Water balls sent one Grass Healing Horse after another flying.

The Grass Healing Horses were very united; quickly, all the scattered Grass Healing Horses on the grassland gathered to launch an attack on Xiaoruan.

Grass-Healing chains connected, linking all the Grass Healing Horses one by one.

The injured Grass Healing Horses fell and then got up, and once they stood, they fell again.

In terms of endurance, Grass Healing Horses were formidable, but Xiaoruan was even more formidable.

Xiaoruan possessed Gold five-level strength and a vast amount of Spiritual Energy.

One attribute of Spiritual Energy transitioned completely into another attribute of Spiritual Energy, all attributes completing a cycle, and the initially used Spiritual Energy was replenished again.

Moreover, the healing from the Grass-Healing chains had limits, and couldn’t treat fatal wounds.

Xiaoruan’s damage was enough to be lethal in a single blow.

Had Li Cunxu not instructed Xiaoruan to ease up on the damage, within two to three hours, this group of Grass Healing Horses would have all died.

Seeing the blood-stained grassland and rapidly healing wounds of the Grass Healing Horses, Li Cunxu suddenly had an idea.

This idea was not so friendly to the Grass Healing Horses but was very beneficial to Li Cunxu, as it could increase his Holy Blood harvest.

The Blood Lotus Eye lit up, the Burning Lotus Blood Fire clung to the wounds of the Grass Healing Horses, burning their blood while the Grass-Healing chains replenished the lost blood.

“Doesn’t this mean I can harvest Holy Blood indefinitely.”

The battle lasted until evening.

The forty-five hundred Grass Healing Horses were exhausted, nearly out of Spiritual Energy, with many unable to maintain the Grass-Healing chains, thus disconnecting.

Li Cunxu hurriedly retracted the Burning Lotus Blood Fire.

The next day, Li Cunxu and Xiaoruan returned.

Today’s Xiaoruan was gentler than yesterday’s.

The reason being Li Cunxu had instructed that the herd’s Spiritual Energy should be used more for blood restoration so that more Holy Blood could be collected.

On the third day, Li Cunxu and Xiaoruan came back again.

On the fourth day…

On the fifth day…

On the sixth day…

The herd of Grass Healing Horses finally couldn’t resist, bowing their noble heads to Li Cunxu.

The Grass Healing Horses were not afraid of Xiaoruan’s beating or the Burning Lotus Blood Fire’s scalding, but rather Li Cunxu and Xiaoruan’s cheerful attitude.

Li Cunxu was happy because he could harvest Holy Blood daily.

Xiaoruan was happy because there was a punching bag to hit, allowing it to play out its skills.

Seeing the Grass Healing Horses yield, disappointment flashed in Li Cunxu’s eyes, as today he couldn’t harvest Holy Blood from them.

A few leading Grass Healing Horses saw Li Cunxu’s disappointment and shivered, grateful they had submitted.

With the Grass Healing Horses subdued, it was time to subdue the Radiant Horses.

The Radiant Horses must be subdued; otherwise, they would be an unstable factor.

After all, a Radiant Horse with Radiant Desperation is like a walking time bomb; it could strike unexpectedly, and it’s lethal.

Upon arriving at the Radiant Horse herd, the newly appointed leader of the Radiant Horses stepped out and bowed its head before Li Cunxu.

The Radiant Horses had watched the seven-day battle between Li Cunxu and the Grass Healing Horses; realizing they were no match even if they used all their Radiant Horses, they surrendered.

Before coming, Li Cunxu had been worried because using force to subdue the Radiant Horses was ineffective, and during a fight, Radiant Horses were prone to getting worked up, resorting to Radiant Desperation.

No need to fight, they were subdued, and Li Cunxu was naturally pleased.

The Radiant Horse leader bowed to Li Cunxu, followed by the other Radiant Horses, creating an image of a herd of horses bowing to one person, causing an uproar in the live broadcast channel.

“Is this island survival reality show? It feels like two different shows. While other contestants are worried about warmth and food, Li Cunxu has already subdued the two strongest tribes on the island, starting to rule.”

“I totally agree. I just came from the neighboring channel, where the other contestant was chased around by a Gold-level pet beast, failed to jump into the sea to survive, and was eliminated.”

“I think the difference is Li Cunxu is too strong. Other contestants only have Silver-level strength, but he has Gold-level strength, which is too unfair. I think the program team should weaken Li Cunxu to maintain fairness and justice in the show.”

“How shameless of the upstairs comment! How is Li Cunxu unfair? Don’t forget, Li Cunxu is the youngest participant, and at the start of the show, he only just entered Silver rank, while other islands didn’t even have lord level. Li Cunxu’s island actually has lord level. I actually think the difficulty of his island is too high.”

…

The talent of the Fertile Pasture made this fertile land even more fertile, causing the pasture to grow like crazy, quickly shooting from 30~40 centimeters to one meter.

The Grass Healing Horses and Radiant Horses couldn’t eat fast enough.

Li Cunxu harvested some, mixing the grass with seabed mud and seawater to make Slime Nutrient Liquid to feed the Water Slime resurrected from the Land of Rebirth.

Silver Grass contained abundant nutrition and Spiritual Energy, and the Nutrient Liquid made from it could rapidly promote the level of Water Slime, especially since Slimes level up very easily.

Soon, a batch of Black Iron nine-level Water Slimes was nurtured.

Generally, Slimes only reach Black Iron nine before falling short, as the Bronze level is a difficult threshold to surpass for Slimes whose potential is exhausted.

Li Cunxu then sent all the Water Slimes into the sea, allowing them to drift with the waves and develop independently.
