Chapter 193 The Black Stone

Inside the ability space.

Hai Ji stroked the soft jade that resembled a black stone, a stone that gave her a very strange feeling.

It was as if they were destined to meet; Hai Ji took a liking to it at first glance. It looked ordinary, but Hai Ji liked it.

As Hai Ji continued to stroke it, the black stone seemed to be constantly reviving.

Hai Ji stood up with a look of suspicion. She always felt that something inside her was calling out to her, guiding her direction.

This was her brother's ability space, so what could be here?

Unable to resist her curiosity, Hai Ji stood up and walked in one direction.

Nan Nan said, "Sister Hai Ji, if you need anything, you can tell us."

Hai Ji waved her hand, "No need."

After Chen Luo's improvements, the ability space was very complex. However, Hai Ji followed the call in her heart and arrived at a room.

Inside were several corpses.

Stored here were the corpses of Ismene, Malmö, Black Spirit, Red Lotus Matriarch, and others—god-level corpses.

At the time, Chen Luo didn't know what use they would be, but what if they became useful someday?

So he collected them and placed them in a corner of the ability space, isolated from everyone else.

Hai Ji wondered, how did she get here?

At this moment, the black stone in Hai Ji's hand suddenly emitted a black, intimidating light. It was extremely solid, and then split into several strands, each aimed at one of the corpses.

Hai Ji was shocked. What was going on?

Ismene and the others hadn't been dead for long, especially the Red Lotus Matriarch, who had only been dead for a few days. Plus, being god-level, they looked like people who had simply fallen asleep.

But as they connected with the black light, the corpses visibly shriveled up.

Was it absorbing their power?

Hai Ji wasn't exactly a good person, but she felt this was too evil and might lead to some unforeseen disaster.

Hai Ji instinctively wanted to stop it, to get away from here, to prevent the black stone from absorbing the corpses' power.

But a force transmitted from the hand holding the black stone into her body.

Hai Ji was stunned. Was she indirectly absorbing the remaining power of these corpses through this stone?

This power had the same origin as her dark ability, but it was a completely different level of power.

Hai Ji felt that this power was far above her own dark ability. Perhaps, it was like the difference in power between a demigod and a god-level being.

The power of death was absorbed by Hai Ji, and it actually allowed her to break through the Emperor-level limit very quickly, reaching the demigod level.

Hai Ji was in a daze. She, who originally needed about two months, had advanced to demigod just like that?

This improvement in strength was too fast.

And the power was still increasing steadily.

After a few seconds of shock, Hai Ji resolutely left the place, not allowing the black stone to continue absorbing.

If her strength didn't improve so quickly, if it was a little slower, Hai Ji would be very happy.

But it was too fast.

Hai Ji's rapid growth in the early days on Blue Star was entirely due to Aubin's flesh, advancing to the King level in a short period of time.

But the price was a bloodthirsty heart, and the advancement was very painful.

Now that her strength was improving too quickly, she would inevitably pay some kind of price.

Hai Ji wasn't afraid of this price, but she didn't want her brother to worry.

She just needed to be a quiet and gentle older sister.

On the way back, Hai Ji was walking alone when a dog cub rushed straight towards her.

Originally, the dog cubs fought each other in the ability space. Since they had wives, they fought in pairs, sparring with each other.

Hai Ji was expressionless and casually slapped away the dog cub that was rushing towards her.

The dog cub cried out in pain, "Who hit me?"

Looking up, he saw Hai Ji looking at him calmly, and immediately cowered.

"It's Aunt Hai Ji, then it's okay."

After Hai Ji walked away, the dog cub scratched his head. "Did you guys notice that Aunt Hai Ji seems more terrifying than before? My heart is trembling."

Hai Ji wouldn't hide anything from Chen Luo. Chen Luo didn't go looking for Yun Chuyang after fighting with Dana.

If he didn't show up, there was no need to look for him.

Chen Luo noticed Hai Ji's different aura and said in surprise, "Sister, you've advanced to demigod? So fast?"

Hai Ji smiled and told him what had just happened, taking out the black stone and saying with suspicion.

"This stone can actually absorb the power of corpses and then transmit it to me."

This stone was obtained from Leisayin's ring. When it was taken out, Mifan seemed a little afraid of it.

Hai Ji liked it, and Mifan said it was fine as long as she didn't keep it close to her body.

Chen Luo was stunned. What the hell was this thing? It allowed Hai Ji, who originally needed two months to advance by absorbing demigod crystals, to advance now.

Chen Luo took the black stone, but didn't feel anything.

Was it dangerous for her to advance so quickly?

It was too strange.

Chen Luo immediately asked Mifan, "What is this thing, a good thing or a bad thing?"

Mifan said, "I said at the beginning that this thing wasn't good and should be thrown away, but Sister Hai Ji liked it, so we kept it."

Chen Luo asked, "What about now?"

Mifan supported her chin with one hand and thought for a while. "For Sister Hai Ji, it might be a good thing. I don't know why, but I just feel that way."

It was a good thing for Hai Ji?

Hai Ji said, "Give it to me, I just won't let it absorb those corpses."

Chen Luo didn't know how to refuse Sister Hai Ji at all. After thinking about it, he still gave it to Hai Ji.

At least, there was nothing wrong with Hai Ji reaching the demigod level at the moment. It seemed that it was really a good thing for Hai Ji.

……

Yun Chuyang went back, but he didn't bring back Dana. Did that seem to indicate whether things had been successful or not?

Leisayin asked in a deep voice, "Did things fail? Where's Dana?"

Yun Chuyang told the story in detail, "Chen Luo didn't fall for the trick. He directly fought with Dana. He used Void Walk to take Dana away, and I couldn't catch up. I don't know what happened after that, but Dana is probably..."

Adolf took a deep breath and said in confusion, "How could Chen Luo not fall for the trick? Did Dana give herself away?"

"But even if Chen Luo guessed that Dana was doing it on purpose, he probably couldn't resist, unless he knew in advance that Dana was a poison-type, but Dana has always been secluded."

Leisayin shook his head. "Could it be that we misjudged? Is this Chen Luo not lustful?"

Sighing slightly, Adolf dismissed Yun Chuyang and said, "We can't send anyone else. Let's directly use my trump card and let Chen Luo come over himself."

Leisayin asked with a smile, "What trump card does Old Bro have?"

Adolf snorted softly, "Didn't you tell me when you came that Shi Su originally wanted to kill Chen Luo with his people, but Chen Luo ran away? Shi Su couldn't do anything to Chen Luo and was afraid of being retaliated against, so he wanted to use Leisayin's hand to kill Chen Luo."

Leisayin's expression turned cold, and then Leisayin was also crippled by Chen Luo.

Adolf sneered, "It just so happens that Shi Su is here with me. I'll pretend to show goodwill and send Shi Su to him to kill."

Shi Su: I***********.
