Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse-Chapter 440

With Abu's warning, Qu Xiaobei immediately abandoned the idea of picking one to eat.

Nothing is more important than life!

The group didn’t stop and continued their journey.

But after walking some distance, Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly furrowed her brows.

"Something's approaching!"

No sooner had she spoken than the group heard a rustling sound, as if something was rapidly moving through the sand.

"Such huge, long leaves!" Liu Xiaohui exclaimed in shock.

Everyone's alarms went off, and they quickly climbed out of their vehicles, scrambling onto the roofs.

At this point, staying inside the cars would be a death sentence!

"To the east!" Yun Xiaoxiao said sternly.

Immediately, everyone turned to face the direction.

Their eyes scanned the area warily.

The next moment, several broad, elongated leaves burst through the yellow sand, shooting straight toward them.

The leathery, ribbon-like leaves moved with terrifying speed, carrying an overwhelming force.

Yun Xiaoxiao swiftly drew Lord Slasher and slashed at an oncoming leaf.

But even as a section was severed, the leaf rapidly regrew, as if endless.

Panic set in as everyone struggled to defend themselves.

Though the group was strong, if these things kept coming, exhaustion would claim them eventually.

So, with a dark glint in her eyes, Yun Xiaoxiao stared ahead.

To defeat the enemy, capture their leader—they had to uproot this thing to end the threat once and for all.

Many shared her thoughts.

Lu Chen, Ling Jing, and Bai Hongting had the same idea.

Only then did the four set off.

They followed the direction of the leaves, pressing forward.

Along the way, two leaves suddenly changed course, shooting straight up toward them.

But they were swiftly cut down.

After a while, they finally saw the source of the leaves.

It was a stretch of dry sand, covered in a dense patch of vegetation.

From a distance, it looked like giant octopuses sprawled across a beach.

"Is that... Welwitschia?"

Staring at the plants, Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly recalled a desert plant Abu had mentioned.

Welwitschia, also known as the "hundred-year plant," could survive for long periods in the water-scarce desert, earning it the title of a living fossil in the plant kingdom.

It had only two leaves, but these leaves never shed.

Clearly, the Welwitschia here had mutated.

Four of them were waving their massive leaves menacingly.

Their leaves had not only grown longer and wider, sprouting sharp spikes, but their numbers had multiplied—completely defying natural growth laws.

As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao and the others appeared, two of the Welwitschia seemed to sense danger and gathered their leaves before launching a fierce assault.

But Yun Xiaoxiao and her companions, already prepared, dodged effortlessly.

Instead, after evading, the four concentrated their firepower, attacking the Welwitschia's main bodies.

Mutated plants were formidable, but they had one fatal flaw—they couldn’t move.

Against ordinary opponents, they posed a deadly threat.

But against Yun Xiaoxiao and her team, their weaknesses were glaring.

After a relentless barrage of targeted attacks, the mutated Welwitschia finally lost all signs of life.

Their broad leaves slumped lifelessly onto the sand.

Seeing no further anomalies, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others returned.

After a quick cleanup, the group resumed their journey.

"Still, I can't help but wonder," Nie Yizhou suddenly mused, bored. "How did Uncle Tu'er survive alone in this desert, where danger lurks everywhere?"

"Didn’t Abu say? Uncle Tu'er was the most skilled guide in their town, with unmatched knowledge of the desert. Even if he's mentally unstable now, his instincts for danger would help him avoid fatal threats," Han Bing reasoned.

"But the desert isn’t just full of poisonous insects and plants—many are mutated now," Liu Xiaohui chimed in.

The implication was clear: even with their large, highly skilled group of supernaturals, keeping everyone alive required tremendous effort.

So how could Uncle Tu'er alone evade these terrifying mutated creatures and plants?

Yun Xiaoxiao: "Uncle Tu'er is also a supernatural, but his ability is... unique."

"How unique?"

"To put it simply, his body is a massive poison reservoir. If any mutated creatures or plants try to harm him, they’d be the ones poisoned first."

Everyone: !!!

"There’s an ability like that?!"

"Indeed, it’s bizarre, but the world is full of wonders."

"In that case, I can see why Uncle Tu'er didn’t starve or die of thirst despite having no food or water," Qu Xiaobei mused, stroking her chin.

"Probably because when he’s hungry, he just... eats the poisonous insects and plants."

"...Probably... yeah."

Only then did the group suddenly remember.

On the first night, when venomous spiders attacked the camp, Uncle Tu'er grabbed a small spider with his bare hands—and at that moment, he even opened his mouth.

However, Abu quickly killed the spider and tossed it away.

Had he not done so...

Judging by Uncle Tu'er's movements at the time, it wasn’t hard to guess that he might have been about to... put the spider into his mouth!

No one realized it then, but looking back now, that was clearly the case.

Everyone’s faces paled at the thought.

Truly... a chilling realization!

Even the poisonous creatures probably never expected this.

They were deadly, but someone was even deadlier than them!

As they continued their journey, they encountered strikingly beautiful yet lethal plants like wolfbane and desert roses.

Though alluring in appearance, these plants concealed deadly toxins within.

A single careless touch could lead to a fatal poisoning—making them extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, Abu was well-versed in the ways of the desert.

Without him, even the most capable individuals who recklessly wandered into this place, tempted by curiosity, would have met a swift and certain death.

Of course, the journey was fraught with other dangers as well.

There were rattlesnakes sneaking onto their vehicles and mutated lizards bursting suddenly from the sand.

Thankfully, Yun Xiaoxiao possessed keen senses and a unique ability.

Any living creature that entered her detection range manifested as a tiny dot in her mind’s eye.

This allowed her to pinpoint the exact locations of these threats and eliminate them before they could strike.

Coupled with Liu Xiaohui’s X-ray vision, the group managed to keep most dangers under control.

Aside from Tang Yanchi, who suffered an unfortunate injury due to an earlier mishap, everyone else remained unharmed.

Apart from the sweltering heat, which was unbearable at times, the journey was otherwise manageable.

Still, their understanding of the Death Desert deepened with each passing day.

After four days of relentless travel, however, something unexpected happened.

One afternoon, Uncle Tu'er suddenly lost his mind, screaming and raving wildly.
