Chapter 82

Suddenly, it was announced that Sanjiang had passed the preliminary review. Well, it seems there’s still a re-review. Sixue is very eager for this opportunity, so I hope all the readers can give Sixue your precious recommendation votes and collections. Sixue thanks you all here! Please support Sixue! Thank you.

Everyone started to get busy, even Xiaobei was no exception. She held a small piece of vine in her little hand, tugging on Erdong Sheng’s hair, and made a lot of noise!

"Alright, alright, stop pulling, I’ll do it for you!" Erdong Sheng helplessly pulled the little one off his head. This little thing also wanted to do the experiment, treating it entirely as a game!

Sometimes, Erdong Sheng really doubted whether this little thing was a demon. If it were a demon, how could it be so playful? Although the little succubus was sometimes very playful, she was usually quite sensible and her pursuit of strength was no less than Erdong Sheng’s! Only this little one thought of nothing but playing and eating all day!

Or is it because of the underground isolation?

Following the direction the little one pointed, Erdong Sheng saw a small vine!

"Ha!"

"Ha ha, this is the vine you chose? Its stem is so small, how could it possibly contain starch..." Erdong Sheng looked at the peculiar vine the little one pointed to and couldn’t help but burst out laughing!

If this thing contained starch, it would be a miracle!

"Ya ya ya!" Xiaobei tugged hard! Hmph!

"Alright, alright, I’ll do it for you!" It’s not much trouble anyway, might as well help her!

Picking up the tools, Erdong Sheng got to work. A few minutes later...

"Hey, hey, what are you throwing in there?" At this moment, Xiaobei was struggling to pull the leaves of the small vine and throw them into the wooden bucket!

"Ya ya ya!"

"Alright, alright, do as you please!" He casually crushed the leaves and put them in the wooden bucket, just to play along with the little one!

...

Time passed minute by minute, and Erdong Sheng and the others had almost finished processing all the plants! There were about thirty to forty different types, mostly done by Erdong Sheng and the Xilie sisters. Lulu and Ximi had jointly selected three vines, all of which were relatively good-looking!

Xiaobei, in a fit of pique, guarded her small vine, not letting anyone touch it! The real reason was that she, being so small, had only done that one!

Erdong Sheng didn’t have the time to continue playing with her!

Sitting on the sand bed, he looked at the various wooden buckets on the ground, and everyone showed a look of anticipation! Erdong Sheng took a few pieces of roasted meat from a wooden bowl beside him and put them in Xiaobei’s arms, who was sitting on his shoulder, then he propped his chin and began to think.

Since the last time the Fairy Queen left, he hadn’t received any information about the trading camp, and he didn’t know how the situation had developed!

There were also those mysterious second-level demons, whose origins were so strange, and he couldn’t ignore them!

"What are you planning, Succubus Queen?"

A faint sense of unease crept over him. As the strongest demon in this area, Erdong Sheng didn’t believe the Succubus Queen hadn’t considered him!

He was the most dangerous time bomb on this battlefield, and whoever ignored him would be blown to pieces!

"Then, what are your moves? I’m waiting!"

No matter what, he would face any challenge head-on! Whoever dared to provoke him would have to be prepared for a fight to the death!

"Some things must be accelerated..."

...

"What is this? Starch? Nonsense!" Looking at the brownish-yellow substance in the wooden bucket, a pungent smell hit his nose, making his head spin slightly. The system kept warning him of toxin intrusion!

Damn, how potent was this toxin! A seemingly harmless vine, when soaked in water, emitted such a powerful toxicity! Erdong Sheng’s understanding of these plants deepened once again! The plants in the Abyss were truly bizarre!

"This one isn’t it either!"

"This black one, let’s keep it for now, maybe it has black starch!"

"Okay, this one looks better, it’s white, let’s keep it!"

"Damn, what is this!" Erdong Sheng looked at the next wooden bucket and was suddenly startled!

At this moment, the bucket was filled with a green mist that slowly rose, forming eerie skull-like patterns in the air! At the same time, a faint, ghostly moan continuously came from the illusory skulls!

Gradually, the moans became more melodious, and the eerie skulls seemed to transform into beautiful women, their painful moans turning into seductive groans. Erdong Sheng’s gaze gradually sank into it!

"Slap!"

"Ya ya!" Xiaobei instinctively sensed something was wrong with Erdong Sheng and flicked his face with her little fish tail!

It seemed to have a bit of a retaliatory tone!

Damn! Erdong Sheng suddenly shivered and suddenly felt as if he had woken up!

Looking at the eerie wooden bucket again, the green mist was still floating, but there was no longer that strange feeling. The skulls, the beautiful women, the moans, and the groans were all gone!

What happened?

"What did you see just now?" Erdong Sheng turned to ask the demons beside him!

"Murmur?" No need to ask, judging from the little girl’s reaction, she probably didn’t know anything either!

"What’s wrong, sir? What happened?" Xilie and the others also looked at him with puzzled expressions!

None of them noticed anything! But that’s not right, so...

"Xiaobei, why did you hit me just now?" Erdong Sheng suddenly looked at the little sea monster on his shoulder and asked.

"Ya ya! Yi yi ya ya! (Xiaobei felt dizzy just now, and didn’t feel the big guy’s black fire!)" Xiaobei wouldn’t tell you that she was mainly taking the opportunity to retaliate! This little schemer!

Black Fire!

Touching his chest, the Black Fire in his heart seemed to have just recovered and was slowly pulsing with his heartbeat!

It wasn’t an illusion, so what was it?

The Black Fire was connected to his soul, so was it a soul-related issue?

Erdong Sheng suppressed his doubts, found a large wooden board to cover the bucket, and instructed everyone not to approach! This thing was too eerie, giving him a strong sense of unease! The image of the skull and the beautiful woman in his mind still lingered!

"System, check my state just now, any records?"

"None, the system detected that the host was normal at the time!"

"What about the scene I saw? Pull it up!" Erdong Sheng didn’t believe that the system, which was connected to his soul, hadn’t noticed anything!

Erdong Sheng pulled up the image from earlier and watched it again. Everything was normal: checking the bucket, seeing the green mist, and then asking the others around him!

Nothing, nothing, everything was normal!

But it still felt wrong! What did he see?

"Slow down the scene where I was looking at the bucket by ten times!"

Nothing, everything was still normal!

"Keep slowing it down, one by one, until I say stop!"

Twenty times, nothing found, thirty times still nothing...

Sixty times!

"Wait!" Erdong Sheng seemed to have noticed something, carefully observing the scene in the image, not missing any detail!

"Zoom in on the eyes!"

Instantly, the image was filled with Erdong Sheng’s enlarged pupils!

"Not mine, zoom in on Xiaobei’s eyes!"

The system’s advantage was that it could monitor Erdong Sheng’s surroundings at any time, for the purpose of gathering information! Although the range was limited, he could now clearly see Xiaobei’s eyes!

Everything was normal!

"Keep zooming in, don’t stop!"

The image grew larger, from Xiaobei’s whole body, to her small face, to her big eyes, and finally focused on her pupils!

"Stop, right here, now zoom in bit by bit!"

Slowly, slowly, as the image grew larger, something appeared from nothing!

Erdong Sheng’s face turned ashen! Suddenly, his gaze fixed on the surroundings of the cave!

At the same time, a deep chill crept over him!

"Sure enough!!!"
