"The Wisdom Mushroom King is a terrifying creature. Once you inhale its mushroom spores, you will be parasitized by its wisdom mushrooms, and the host is completely controlled by it."

Li Cunxu recalled the memory of the Wisdom Mushroom King that was mentioned by the rampaging bull in his mind.

With such a vast God Realm and so many pet beasts, it's normal that Li Cunxu hasn't seen some of them.

Li Cunxu looked at the green mushroom on top of the rampaging bull's head, "So, does that mean you are also parasitized?"

The rampaging bull shook the mushroom on its head, saying, "Indeed, I am parasitized, but I managed to break free with my strong willpower."

This was a lie.

Li Cunxu saw in its status bar that it was still under parasite control.

That is to say, the Wisdom Mushroom King controlled the rampaging bull and used its mouth to warn Li Cunxu not to proceed further.

"Since wisdom mushrooms can parasitize with mushroom spores, why doesn't it wait for me to enter its territory and parasitize me then?" Li Cunxu thought.

"Or perhaps, its mushroom spores have no effect on me?"

Li Cunxu remembered an incident that happened a few days after landing on the island when his Spiritual Power mysteriously decreased by half overnight, and he still hasn't found the reason why.

Could it be because he inhaled the mushroom spores and they were countered by his Spiritual Power?

The parasitizing ability of the Wisdom Mushroom King's mushroom spores couldn't be too overpowering, as a King had inspected this island. If the Wisdom Mushroom King's mushroom spores could parasitize with a hundred percent success rate, the King wouldn't have left it alive.

Because pet beasts of this parasitic type pose a significant threat to humans and must be eradicated.

Tongdu's second city can be left unbuilt, but such overly threatening pet beasts must be destroyed.

Regardless of whether the mushroom spores have any effect on him, he would first put on an empty water balloon.

The water balloon could isolate potential mushroom spores in the air, although it might not be effective. In any case, there would be no harm in putting on a layer of a water balloon.

Li Cunxu asked, "Can you pull out the mushroom on your head?"

The rampaging bull replied, "I can remove it, but once it's removed, my vitality will be severely damaged, and soon, the mushroom will grow back."

"Is that so? I don't believe it."

Li Cunxu manipulated the water flow, instantly gathering it on the rampaging bull's head, and forcefully pulled off the Wisdom Mushroom with the drag of the water balloon.

The rampaging bull, being only Silver nine, couldn't resist the water balloon shared by Xiaoruan.

When the mushroom was pulled off, sure enough, the rampaging bull's spirit instantly wilted significantly.

Furious and frightened, the rampaging bull exclaimed, "What are you doing? I kindly reminded you, yet you hurt me, what sense does that make?"

Li Cunxu remained expressionless, saying, "Alright, stop pretending. It's the Wisdom Mushroom King, right? Why don't you want me to proceed?"

The Wisdom Mushroom King, controlling the rampaging bull from behind, was terrified.

As expected, the man who made it feel danger with his innate ability [Premonition of Danger (Blue)] just saw through its trick so easily.

[Premonition of Danger], a blue rare grade, allows one to foresee future danger episodes regarding oneself.

From the moment Li Cunxu landed on the island, the Wisdom Mushroom King foresaw an image of itself being beaten and crawling at Li Cunxu's feet.

Initially, it was furious; it controlled the rampaging bull, dispersing mushroom spores towards the beach cabin, yet the parasitizing failed. Just as Li Cunxu speculated, its mushroom spore parasitizing is restricted and Spiritual Power can resist it.

Since Li Cunxu's Spiritual Power is ten times that of an ordinary person, the mushroom spores failed to parasitize even after an entire night.

With a blank expression, the rampaging bull said, "I don't understand what you're saying."

Li Cuncun folded his arms, "Keep pretending then."

Seeing it couldn't deceive Li Cunxu, the Wisdom Mushroom King let out a ruthless threat.

"If you go any further, I will kill you."

After saying that, the parasitized rampaging bull died suddenly.

Despite the Wisdom Mushroom King's fierce words, it was panicking inside, silently praying.

"Listen and heed the warning, don't come, don't come."

...

Why doesn't the Wisdom Mushroom King relocate?

It can't relocate; its mobility is limited. Its race's peculiar trait makes it unable to leave the ground for more than five minutes.

Leaving the ground for four minutes, it must rest for four hours.

If it really wanted to relocate, it still could; though its speed is slow at Gold three level, it can leap a few hundred meters each time.

However, relocation would be troublesome, encountering new dangers, as it has no refuge on the island. The diffusion of its mushroom spores, which it can't control, also leads to wherever it goes, the pet beasts there end up parasitized by it.

Even without wanting to parasitize, it ends up parasitizing due to its own nature.

Its combat strength at Gold three is weak, forcing it to remain curled up in this place when facing the island's Gold-level threats.

Li Cunxu wasn't in a hurry to enter the Wisdom Mushroom King's territory, opting instead to rest in the forest.

"Xiaoyi, go study this mushroom, be wary that the spores can parasitize. Let your avatar do it."

The Xiaobai Spider avatar crafted a mask made of spider silk and started studying the Wisdom Mushroom pulled off from the rampaging bull's head. After researching all night, it seemed to make a major discovery, excitedly shutting off the Mechanical Celestial Eye.

The Xiaobai Spider avatar said, "Master-kun, we must capture this Wisdom Mushroom King."

Li Cunxu asked curiously, "Why is that?"

"A major discovery, I've found that the Wisdom Mushroom, aside from the parasitizing effect, also has a wisdom enlightenment effect."

The Xiaobai Spider avatar pointed to a group of Slimes with small green mushrooms on their heads and said.

Perplexed, Li Cunxu replied, "Enlightening wisdom is good, but you'll also be parasitized!"

While enlightening wisdom is great, compared to being parasitized and losing autonomy, the enlightenment of wisdom seemed trivial.

"Then remove the parasitism, leaving only the wisdom enlightenment effect."

"A genius idea."

Li Cunxu's eyes sparkled as if seeing a gleaming mountain of gold.

The resource of enlightening wisdom is a highly valuable resource.

After all, no Beast Master wouldn't want their pet beast to become a bit smarter.

If Xiaobai Spider's idea is feasible, then the value of the Wisdom Mushroom King is immeasurable.

The value of one Wisdom Mushroom King equals dozens of mechanical demolition secret realms and dozens of White Jade secret realms, truly ensuring a life without worries of food and drink.

"Let's go, let's go, capture it, we absolutely cannot let it escape."

Li Cunxu eagerly rushed into the territory of the Wisdom Mushroom King.

Such recklessness? Aren't you afraid of danger?

Of course, danger is fearsome.

But Li Cunxu had a life-saving jade.

Using the life-saving jade meant failing the island survival challenge.

However, even in failure, capturing the Wisdom Mushroom King is a must.

Even if Xiaobai Spider's idea doesn't succeed, the value of the Wisdom Mushroom King exceeds that of Bengma Island.

If Xiaobai Spider fails, it can be sold to scholars and doctors at research institutes, who would be very willing to buy the Wisdom Mushroom King's mushroom spores.

After running more than a thousand meters, Li Cunxu immediately recognized he had entered the territory of the Wisdom Mushroom King.

Because there was a Mushroom Forest full of green mushrooms here, and the air was filled with the spores of green mushrooms.

The mist composed of mushroom spores drifted with the wind, constantly congregating.

Li Cunxu found that the method of using a water balloon to isolate the mushroom spores was indeed effective.

One after another, pet beasts with mushrooms on their heads emerged, surrounding Li Cunxu in a circle, repeatedly using telepathy to convey a single phrase.

"This is not a place you should come to, leave! Leave!"

Leave? I haven't found my mountain of gold yet, so I won't be leaving.

Li Cunxu flashed a smile, and to the Wisdom Mushroom King, that smile seemed too wicked.
