"How about this little brother, just talk with me here for a while and wait for Kira to get rid of your companions, or else..." Dongzhi looked at Bai Xi plainly, as if he didn't regard Bai Xi as a person. Bai Xi was less like an opponent, and more like a little brother next door to him.

"You’ll have to overexert your strength to attack me? Only to be defeated by me?"

"Hey, chameleon! Don't think of me as a kid who can't do anything!" Bai Xi jumped up like lightning as if he was greatly insulted by the chameleon's comment! Don't underestimate me. He wasn't wrong that Bai Xi was weak right now, but even if he was defeated and subdued by Dong Zhi, he wouldn’t give in! Even if I couldn't beat him, he could still bite him.

"Don't call me a chameleon! I am the great Lord Dongzhi!" Dongzhi declared, chagrined.

After the mutation, although it no longer had the appearance of an animal, it was still unable to get rid of the green skin.

It didn’t have the arms of a human being, but the forelimbs of the chameleon, like its previous self. The three toes of the forelimbs were all twisted inward, whereas the fourth and fifth toes meandered outward. On the rear feet, the medial group contained two toes, and the lateral group contained three peculiar-looking toes. Dongzhi could barely stand like a normal person. It habitually crawled on the ground while moving at a high speed. Those eerie eyes, with thick and protruding eyelids shaped like a cone, which could focus its pupils separately to look at two different objects at the same time. It also had a curled tail. And it still hated being called a chameleon!!

The two equally angry people confronted each other at lightning speed!

Dong Zhi quickly rushed towards Bai Xi, and its figure gradually disappeared as it moved closer.

Bai Xi's pupils contracted.

The invisibility trick again! No, rather it was the chameleon power, which let it quickly mobilize the pigment cells on the surface of its body to integrate its body in different environments.

"Bang!," Bai Xi was drawn away by a tail that was slowly revealed from his side!

What should he do? How could one fight an invisible enemy?

"Bang!" As soon as Bai Xi got up, he was hit on his face by the tail again.

He got up again, wiped the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. The right side of his face was red and swollen.

This wouldn't work. Was he only going to be beaten unilaterally?!

Bai Xi closed his eyes, recalling what Fanfan had taught him.

------------------------------------------------------

"Today I will teach you about fighting consciousness."

The girl with the ponytail had her hands folded across the chest as she instructed the boy sitting cross-legged in front of her.

"Fighting consciousness is not only used in combat, but also in releasing the qi."

"What is qi?"

"All living things have qi in their bodies. You, me, birds, zombies, as long as they are self-conscious creatures, all have qi." She said while pointing to herself, then to Bai Xi, and finally to the flying bird in the sky.

"Qi symbolizes a person’s energy. In a lifetime, qi dissipates all the time. While eating, running, and even sleeping. The absence of qi means the person is dead. But if someone is willing to transfer their qi to someone who is about to die, then that person's survival would depend upon the quality and amount of the transitioned qi."

"If you want to become stronger, you need to cultivate. In the early stages of cultivation, your complexion will improve. Then you can extend your fighting time and maintain your abilities. Later, you’ll be able to extend your lifespan. At the highest stage, you’ll be able to change the vitality of a piece of land and clear the sky which is about to welcome rain. Of course, it’s still too early for you to be able to do those now."

"Qi is all around your body, like a burning flame. When you add wood to the flame, the flame would become more and more magnificent. On the contrary, if there is no firewood, the flame would slowly dissipate until it disappears. Qi is also like this. "

"The topic is off the track, continue now."

"The fighting consciousness...how to say...it’s like an animal fleeing when it senses a threat. The sensitivity of animals is higher than that of humans and zombies."

"Fighting consciousness means to release one's own qi, let the qi surround the area where you are, one grass, one tree, one flower, one world, and then let your perception fall on everything in the area. It's the same as how blind people explore the road ahead of them according to their own perception and pathfinding abilities. Your hearing, smell, and perception should be infinitely magnified. Everything around you is under your control."

"The rest needs to be understood by yourself in the battle. Everyone has their own understanding. I can't impose my understanding on you."

"The rest is up to you."

The beautiful face of the girl with the ponytail gradually blurred, and the cold voice disappeared.

------------------------------------------------------

Now, it was the time to rely on himself, and finally, there was a serious battle where he could comprehend it.

Bai Xi clenched his fist, and fire slowly rose in his heart.

He created the scene in the mind. A small grass here and a small rock there.

"Thud!" Bai Xi’s imagination was interrupted by the sudden attack.

"Cough..." Supporting himself up with one hand on the ground, he raised the other hand to wipe the mouthful of blood he coughed up with the back of his hand.

A green tail slowly disappeared in the air.

Sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, he quickly imagined the same scene, and then remembered the place where the tail had disappeared. He simulated Dongzhi's figure in his mind.

"Bang!" His head was beaten hard.

The crooked body returned to its original position again, and the interrupted scene was quickly recreated again.

"Bang!" He was hit in the abdomen again.

"Cough!" Bai Xi spit out blood.

"Little brother, are you begging me for mercy now? Regretting the insults that you threw at me previously? Hahahaha!" As Dongzhi ridiculed him, its hidden body emerged slightly and then sank into the environment again every few seconds.

Hurry up... Hurry up... Hurry up! His mind quickly formed a figure of Dongzhi following the voice.

"Boom!" His head was hit hard.

Bai Xi frowned as if he hadn't suffered an attack.

This wasn’t working out! He would die if this continued!

Qi... Qi... Trying to perceive the existence of Qi.

Suddenly! A space in the environment in his brain emitted energy, and Dongzhi's figure flashed vaguely.

On the right! Bai Xi opened his eyes and leaned back.

"Pop!" This time it was not Bai Xi being hit but the sound of wind following the failed attack.
