Chapter 317 - 315: Your Mission Is Complete
Watching Jiang Che and Ding Ning walk away, the Rabbit-man finally entered the passage.
She looked in the direction where Jiang Che and Ding Ning were headed, and only after confirming that they were walking towards her Dungeon did she withdraw her gaze.
As soon as she entered the passage, she realized that Jiang Che wasn’t lying.
An eerie aura pervaded the passage, and the darkness seemed tangible, tightly pressing against her body and mind.
The passage blocked many auras, but upon entering, one could sense the flavors associated with two worlds.
She no longer had the mood to watch what Jiang Che and the others were doing.
At this moment, her mind was filled solely with that fresh smell of decay, like a sharp thorn constantly stimulating her nerves.
Upon entering the passage, she smelled numerous fresh odors of decay.
The smell emanated from the other end of the passage in the Human Realm.
The scent was strong and pungent, it was fresh slaughter!
The death of an evil spirit doesn’t have a bloody scent but emits a decaying odor that floats into the air, assimilated by the world.
But this particular decay smell made her realize that something unusual must have happened at the other end of the Human Realm.
She quickened her pace, her figure rapidly darting through the darkness, her unease growing stronger.
Just as she ran out of the passage, she saw the ground strewn with evil spirit corpses.
In the gray air, the evil spirits that were supposed to guard here lay scattered on the ground, their vitality plundered and bodies already decayed.
The ruined bodies, twisted postures, seemed to narrate the pain and despair before death.
Dark Star!
Looking at those corpses on the ground, she immediately knew who was responsible.
Anger and excitement intertwined in her heart.
With just a glance, she got up, checked the surrounding traces, and went in pursuit of Dark Star’s direction.
She didn’t notify the other Lords but secretly followed; Dark Star was a valuable target, and she happened to want to devour him too.
Who would shun having more power?
Although in her frenzied state, she could rival several Lords, but only in that frenzied state.
After the frenzy subsides, she would fall into weakness.
Just like Dark Star now, with everyone eager to attack him, everyone wanting to devour him.
If possible, she too wanted to advance further during this major reshuffle.
These Lords have always said they want to kill Dark Star because he breaks the existing power balance.
But everyone knows if given the opportunity, they would find a way to break the shackles of power themselves.
The position of Evil Spirit Lord is one everyone wants to try sitting in.
At this moment, Dark Star took a deep breath.
His location was dark and damp, suffused with the scent of decay.
He had been hiding for a long time and finally came out of the Evil Spirit Realm. When the Evil Spirit Lords were rushing out, he wasn’t in a hurry to come out first.
He was waiting, waiting for an opportune moment.
On the Human Realm’s side, besides Leng Feng, he naturally could control some other seeds to keep informed.
Moreover, in his perception now, his sense and control of Leng Feng were very weak.
This indicated that after being gravely injured and hiding away, Leng Feng was always seeking to rise and grow stronger.
Dark Star’s eyes flickered with gloom, secretly planning his next steps.
He knew he must be cautious, a slight misstep could lead to an utter downfall.
Leng Feng was the strongest piece he controlled, besides Leng Feng, he naturally also controlled some other seeds for cultivation.
He didn’t put all his chips in one basket.
Previously when Leng Feng would deliberately bring people over, he accepted them altogether but also cultivated some seeds that accidentally entered his territory.
In his eyes, those weak seeds were merely spare pieces, ready to be discarded at any time.
Small seeds can’t stir any storm.
He sneered, filled with disdain for these feeble lives.
Humans believed all humans above the thirteenth tier had opened their own lands, their own dungeons.
But under his control, some seeds haven’t thrown themselves into their own land and Dungeon.
Besides gaining information from Leng Feng, he also controls a fully submissive pawn.
He didn’t control Leng Feng this way because the stronger a person is, the more independent their thoughts.
Only thus can the seed’s value maximize, and upon retrieval, it better demonstrates its value.
The seed he currently controls to monitor them is only up to the thirteenth tier at most.
No further forward progress was possible.
That humble strength seemed insignificant, but at a critical moment, it might wield unexpected effects.
He’s always instructed this seed to monitor Jiang Che and Leng Feng’s actions within the Dark Forest.
When he saw Ding Ning bringing Jiang Che back to the Evil Spirit Realm, he knew his opportunity had arrived.
"Well done, your mission is complete, meld with the darkness!" He placed his hand on the seed before him.
His voice was cold and emotionless, like a judgment from Hell.
With his words, a dark power instantly engulfed the human, leaving no time for a scream.
After absorbing the seed into his body, Dark Star finally felt some recovery in his weakened body.
Considering his current situation, he wished to shred Ding Ning to pieces.
Because at the time, he truly hadn’t expected Ding Ning to act without hesitation, without a moment’s pause.
Had he been more guarded, he wouldn’t have allowed Ding Ning to annihilate his clone, drain energy, and give it to her so-called human husband.
After recovering a bit, he got up and headed towards Leng Feng’s domain.
Over there, he sensed many life forces.
Countless lives.
The seeds planted secretly had just transmitted much information, revealing that most humans are gathered at Leng Feng’s place now.
That place seemed like a natural life station, ready to be devoured.
For a moment, he couldn’t be sure.
His sporadic loss of control over Leng Feng might be deliberate or accidental.
So many lives gathered, it was obviously executing his orders perfectly.
The Rabbit-man followed faint traces left by Dark Star without hesitation, pursuing him.
The surroundings grew increasingly sinister; the trees in the Dark Forest resembled gigantic ghosts, spreading twisted limbs as if trying to block her.
On the way, she cautiously tracked Dark Star’s trail.
After arriving in the Human Realm, he no longer bothered concealing his traces.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the Rabbit-man finally emerged from the Dark Forest.
However, the scene before her made her frown deeply.
Because the place Dark Star arrived at was that densely populated human city.
A layer of gray mist hovered above the city, the streets were deserted, broken only by the occasional breeze.
