Chapter 54

(Listening, listening (Thank you, book friend dxdiag10, for the two update tickets, hehe. Here's the first 3,000 characters, and thank you to all the friends who have been supporting Sixue!))

"Crack, crack"

Stepping on the piled white bones, Er Dongsheng cautiously explored the depths of the crack! This place was a bit eerie, with countless animal skeletons piled on the ground! Under the faint light reflected by the rocks, the stacks of bones emitted a ghastly white glow, making the place look extremely bizarre!

Stepping on countless bones, Er Dongsheng carefully observed everything he could see.

"This is~"

Er Dongsheng looked at the massive skeleton in front of him, his face showing shock. His fingers touched the cold, bone-chilling bones, and a cold, numbing sensation came over him. This feeling...

His brows gradually furrowed, as if he was thinking about something!

"The bones are so cold, they must belong to an Ice Lightning Beast, but how is that possible?" He muttered to himself, unwilling to believe his own judgment from the bottom of his heart!

"How could such a powerful creature die here!" His doubts grew larger, and so did his unease! This place was too eerie. He had felt an evil and ominous aura when he passed by, and now it seemed there was indeed a problem!

What caused so many creatures' bones to be here!

Actually, speaking of which, this forest was home to many super exotic beasts, the unspoken kings of the forest! Their naturally powerful bodies or elemental abilities made them invincible in this area! Almost no creature would dare to provoke these things! Even demons were no exception!

Of course, although these exotic beasts were powerful, they generally lacked intelligence and were not recognized by the Abyss. So, as long as you didn't deliberately provoke them, you were generally safe!

The Ice Lightning Beast was one of the best among exotic beasts, possessing powerful elemental instincts of ice and lightning! Even among exotic beasts, it was a formidable creature that roamed freely, yet this Ice Lightning Beast had died here mysteriously!

"The flesh, skin, and fur are all gone, and there's not a trace of flesh or fur on these bones!" Er Dongsheng looked around, and all the bones were smooth, as if something had completely sucked the flesh out of these creatures!

What exactly happened? Even if they fell here by accident, there should still be some flesh left!

Er Dongsheng looked around in confusion. The faint light from the surrounding rock walls faintly illuminated the area, and with the demon's abnormal vision, he could clearly see everything here!

This place wasn't very large, and it didn't seem to be an abandoned lava tunnel. The underground area was only about a few hundred square meters. The bones were scattered around, especially in the center, where large piles of white bones were stacked. Er Dongsheng stood on them, looking around.

Looking up, Er Dongsheng suddenly realized that the cave was quite deep, about 40 to 50 meters. The entrance was narrower, resembling an inverted gourd. The entrance was slanted upwards, so he could clearly hear the rain outside getting heavier, but no rainwater was flowing in.

The death rain outside was getting heavier, and although this place was eerie, Er Dongsheng finally put his heart at ease. At least he had escaped the death rain!

"But, what exactly is going on here?"

After thoroughly examining the small cave, he found nothing suspicious except the piled bones. There were no other caves, no demons or beasts, nothing but bones!

The cave was extremely quiet, and the howling rain outside constantly echoed through the entrance, sounding like ghostly wails!

A deep sense of unease spread through his heart!

"Damn, what's wrong here!"

To be honest, Er Dongsheng didn't want to stay here for a moment longer, but he had no choice! Outside was the deadly death rain, and going out meant certain death. Although this place was strange, it was temporarily safe!

Perhaps it was just his imagination!

People often subconsciously choose the seemingly better option in dangerous situations, and demons were no exception. Even though he knew this place was filled with evil and ominous energy, he couldn't help but deceive himself and subconsciously deny it!

Continuing to look around, he still found nothing. Bones, bones, bones! Oh, and a vine~

"It seems, there's really no... problem... huh~~~"

His eyes followed the vine from the ceiling to the bottom of the cave, and then to... his... feet!!!

It seemed there was really no problem?

"No problem, my ass!!"

Boom,

He kicked off the ground and quickly flew up, activating his Flame Demon form and hovering in the air. Er Dongsheng's heart almost jumped out of his chest. Looking down, his face was full of black lines, as if he had swallowed a fly!

At that moment, on the ground,

A huge eyeball was slowly opening, and below it was a row of tiny teeth that hadn't closed. A few teeth were already broken, and that was where he had been standing just now!

This thing had been hiding in the bones with its eyes closed, and Er Dongsheng hadn't noticed it at all! If he hadn't seen the strange vine connected to it, he might have been swallowed by the monster right then!

Seeing that the place where he had just stood was actually the monster's teeth, Er Dongsheng shivered!

Damn, you scared the hell out of me!

What is "dark under the lamp"? Er Dongsheng finally understood what it meant! Damn, he almost became the monster's meal because of it!

Staring at the monster on the ground with a grim face, Er Dongsheng could see its exact appearance in the faint light!

The huge vine hanging from the cliff wall seemed to be the monster's body, and at the end of the vine was a massive eyeball. On top of the eyeball were a bunch of sharp teeth!

Damn, I have trypophobia, this is really... fucking disgusting!

At that moment, the massive eyeball was slowly pulling itself out of the ground, and countless bones fell off it, making Er Dongsheng's eyebrows twitch. How many creatures had it eaten! The vine body behind the monster also began to wriggle and slowly coil up!

The massive vine body, nearly a hundred meters long, made Er Dongsheng feel incredibly small!

"Is it worth all this trouble just for a bit of meat like me? It's not even enough to fill your teeth!" He gestured at his body and then looked at the monster, speechless!

What is this? A plant? A one-eyed snake? A mutated monster? A hybrid of a snake and a vine? Damn, why are there so many strange things in this Abyss! Is there no place for demons to live!

What is this? Out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's lair! Indeed, good things never come in pairs, but bad things do!

Damn, why am I so unlucky!!!

"Roar!!!"

A fierce roar echoed, and the eyeball finally pulled itself completely out of the ground! It coiled its body, slowly raising it, and then...

"Damn, it can transform!" Er Dongsheng quickly retreated a distance, watching as several small vines flew out from behind the large eyeball. He was speechless. Each small vine was connected to the large eyeball, about ten meters long, and each end had a small eyeball! They seemed to be miniature versions of the monster!

Damn! Although I like group fights, I hate being ganged up on!

Countless eyes, big and small, were rampant in this small space, and several small eyes were directly attacking Er Dongsheng!

"Perfect, let's test the strength of this monster!"

Pfft

Er Dongsheng grabbed one of the attacking small vines, dodging the head and accurately grabbing the neck of the small eye.

Hmm, how does this feel a bit strange? Does this monster have a neck? Its body is just a vine behind it!

"Wow, you're pretty strong!" Er Dongsheng almost couldn't hold the small vine with one hand, even in his transformed state.

Would he need both hands if he didn't transform?

His expression gradually became serious! Indeed, a super monster that could kill an Ice Lightning Beast was tough!

"Whoosh!" Another small eye attacked from the side!

"Damn, ganging up is the most immoral thing, you should all go to hell!" Grabbing the vine, he quickly spun his body, and his free claw shot out like a drill, striking the attacking small vine!

Sizzle, sizzle

A loud friction sound, like hitting a hard rock, had no effect at all! It only slightly slowed the small vine, with almost no damage!

"Damn, so tough! How can I fight this?" He had seen many species with strong defenses, even breaking the force field of a second-level demon! But the bizarre defense of this vine was something he had never heard of or seen before!

Switching from striking to grabbing, he quickly clamped another small vine with his other claw!

"Damn, the small ones are so tough, how can I fight the big one? I didn't step on your milk, why are you tormenting me like this!"

"Roar!!" The monster was angry, and another small vine attacked from behind Er Dongsheng!

It looked fierce, and the teeth on the small eye seemed to be grinding! It was charging straight at Er Dongsheng's butt!

"Ah!" Er Dongsheng felt his anus tighten, and his legs went cold!

"Damn, I don't want to pick up soap!"

Holding one vine in each hand, he quickly retreated a few steps! It was hard to get leverage in the air, and the two vines struggled fiercely. Just retreating a few steps, Er Dongsheng felt his energy draining rapidly! His body, already weakened by the death rain, became even weaker!

The situation was becoming more critical, and his position was getting worse!

Looking at the third attacking small vine, Er Dongsheng gritted his teeth and suddenly made a bold move...

"Damn, I'll tie you all in a bow! I'll strangle you, you bastards!"

I haven't stepped on your milk recently, why am I so unlucky!

I've had the worst luck for eight generations!
