Chapter 85

(Second update of 3,000 words! First, I want to thank the reader Leng Ying Yue for the tip! Phew, I've been typing non-stop all day, and I'm exhausted! Sob! It's really hard to reach the 12,000-word update request from the reader Phantom Assassin! I'll keep typing, and I hope the readers will support me with recommendations and favorites! I'm trying my best!)

Children need praise, and the little mermaid is no exception!

Faced with such a significant achievement, Er Dongsheng couldn't help but give the proud little thing a good scolding, along with a bunch of promises of rewards, like delicious food and drinks! It was just a few types of requests, but you should know that all the little one's demands were about food!

Foodies are the easiest to deal with!

After clearing away the other vines, Er Dongsheng and Xilie, holding the kudzu vine, braved the fierce storm and snow to reach the fairy camp!

"Phew!" Looking at the cave entrance, everyone let out a long sigh of relief! Béi also poked her little head out from Er Dongsheng's leather coat, curiously looking at the cave! This was her first time visiting the fairies' cave!

Although she had Lulu, she still liked to stick close to Er Dongsheng, which made the little succubus a bit jealous!

"Nanan! If only Lulu were this small too!" The little succubus gestured with her body and looked at the comfortable Béi in Er Dongsheng's arms, looking dejected!

No matter how you look at it, the size difference was too big!

The fairies' cave was only a few hundred meters from Er Dongsheng's residence, but in such a fierce blizzard, it felt like they had traveled an endless distance!

The cold winter blizzard was beyond imagination, with no limit to its intensity!

Coming out of the warm cave, the huge temperature difference made Er Dongsheng very uncomfortable! So he quickly took refuge in the fairies' cave!

After a while, the cave had changed a lot. The fairies, following Er Dongsheng's method, each made a sand pit, filling one side of the cave with various sizes! They also made a large fire pit in the center of the cave, just like Er Dongsheng's, which not only preserved the fire but also made the cave look very clean!

The walls were hung with all kinds of handmade items, from small bamboo baskets to bone knives made from animal bones! Er Dongsheng had also given them some metal, but he didn't know what the fairies had used it for!

Speaking of metal, the piece of lapis lazuli magic stone he had stolen was still in the cave. It wasn't that he didn't want to use it, but it was something he couldn't handle at his current level!

It was too hard, and even moving it a little hurt his claws! How could he use it!

Something you can only look at but not eat, what a pain!

The Destroyer Spear seemed to like that thing. Whenever he summoned it, it would stick to the lapis lazuli magic stone without doing anything! He didn't know why. When he asked, with its limited intelligence, it couldn't explain!

Now, whenever he had nothing to do, he would summon the Destroyer Spear. Although it was very tiring, it was also a form of exercise!

The arrival of Er Dongsheng and his group made the fairies extremely excited. The great lord hadn't come for a long time!

"Alright, I'm here to assign tasks, listen up!" He looked at everyone with a blank expression, and the faint pressure made all the fairies tremble with fear!

"You need to... "

He instructed all the fairies to set aside a small area in the cave to try planting the seeds of this vine! There weren't many seeds on the vine, only about ten or so, which was just enough for experimental planting!

There was no need to plant too many; they would see the results first!

"Remember, take good care of these vine seedlings; they will be your future food source!" Looking at the seedlings that had already sprouted, Er Dongsheng nodded in satisfaction. This was enough; just sprouting the seedlings didn't consume much energy!

"Xilie, from now on, this will be your responsibility. Take good care of it, and contact me if there are any problems! Understand! If anything goes wrong, you won't be able to bear my anger!" He turned and said to the sisters on the side!

"Yes!"

...

After a busy day, although the workload wasn't heavy, it was very mentally draining. After returning to his cave for a while, Er Dongsheng began to deal with this troublesome thing!

Not figuring this out left him with a faint sense of unease!

Looking at the bucket of strange substance and the black-blue glowing vine beside it, Er Dongsheng hesitated, unsure of what to do! This beautiful vine wasn't something they had picked; it was a relic of Chixiao! Xilie and her sister only knew that it seemed to be one of Chixiao's most precious treasures, so they brought it back! Unfortunately, Er Dongsheng had studied it for a long time but found nothing!

This time, in the spirit of not missing any opportunity, Er Dongsheng included this strange plant in the vine experiment, but it caused a big problem!

It actually attracted the long-disappeared evil spirits! What should he do now?

This was a tricky situation, and Er Dongsheng seemed at a loss!

What was this strange vine?

"System, search for information related to this thing and see if there's anything similar!" The system's database was growing larger, and perhaps he could find some clues there!

"Also, give me information on the evil spirits!"

A few minutes later, Er Dongsheng got the information he wanted!

"So, I understand!"

The information was incomplete, mostly legends from the inheritance, but it was enough for Er Dongsheng to understand!

According to the legend, in ancient times, during the reign of the Demon Lord Lilith over the Abyss, a great war swept through the entire Abyss! The main parties in this war were the evil spirit lord Asmodeus Orpheus, who led the evil spirits, and the Demon Lord, the supreme succubus queen, Lilith Servia, who led the endless demons.

In the legend, both Asmodeus and Lilith were among the thirteen strongest lords of ancient times!

One was an evil and greedy evil spirit lord, and the other was a seductive and equally passionate succubus queen! To vie for supreme power, they fought endlessly, reaching for the stars and covering the sky with their hands! The endless war almost destroyed the Abyss, and all demons believed that the ancient era ended in the hands of these two lords!

However, it seemed that the succubus queen Lilith ultimately won, while the evil spirit lord Asmodeus left the Abyss, disappearing without a trace! Even the once famous evil spirits vanished!

This was strange! Er Dongsheng tilted his head, flipping through the inheritance information. He couldn't understand why these two powerful demon lords clashed in that era!

There was an ironclad rule in the Abyss: a demon lord represented a period in the Abyss, favored by the greatest will of the Abyss, wielding supreme power! Since it was the era of the succubus queen Lilith's rule, other demon lords should have kept a low profile!

But why did the war happen?

What were the evil spirits? Where did Asmodeus come from? There was no such figure in ancient times! The title of the thirteen strongest lords was given by later generations!

What happened in the Middle and Recent Ages of the Abyss? Why did all the demon lords disappear? For millions of years since the Recent Age, no demon lord has appeared again, why?

And from the ancient, middle, to the present, after hundreds of millions of years, the long-disappeared evil spirits reappeared. Could another cycle of the Abyss be approaching?

Faced with the evil and greedy evil spirits, who has the ability to turn the tide?

"Truly a time of many troubles!" Er Dongsheng sighed, but he still needed to focus on how to deal with the current situation!

The system judged that this thing was similar to the soul-attracting grass of ancient legends! The soul-attracting grass, as its name suggests, can attract the souls of living beings! As long as there are souls around, they will be drawn to it! Especially for soul-based demons like evil spirits, without the restriction of physical bodies, they can instantly cross vast distances and be attracted by this strange soul-attracting grass!

This thing is more attractive to them than the flesh and blood of living beings!

"So, I've been targeted by those evil spirits? What bad luck!"

"But this thing came from the trading camp, and I don't know what the situation there is like!"

"Whatever, I'll deal with it as it comes. I want to see how powerful these legendary old fossils are!" With the Ink Spirit Fire in hand, he wasn't just a pushover!

"However, I need to prepare in advance. Not only me, but also... "

He stroked the sleeping Béi in his arms. The little one seemed to be dreaming, mumbling something with her mouth and drooling!

Er Dongsheng watched quietly and suddenly smiled for no reason!

"Evil spirits, come! I'll give you a surprise!"

...

Time passed, and it was already deep into the night. The wind and snow howled outside, and the bonfire crackled and burned brightly.

Xilie and the others had already left and returned to the fairy community. Lulu and Béi were both sound asleep, and the little girls had no idea that a great danger was approaching!

Youth knows no sorrow, and Er Dongsheng didn't plan to tell them or make them leave. If he failed, they would face death too!

He added more wood to the fire, and Er Dongsheng sat in a meditative posture, seemingly beginning to practice!

Everything is ready, don't disappoint me!

Gradually, a strange drowsiness crept over him. He tried to stay alert, but he couldn't hold on any longer. His eyes blinked a few times and slowly closed!

"Still... came..."

"Indeed... a spiritual attack..."

"Let's see what happens!"
