The passage between the two worlds suddenly opened, and at that moment, the evil aura of the evil spirit world rushed towards them like a surging tide.

The smell was full of decay, death and madness, and it was sickening.

Jiang Che heard all kinds of wanton laughter coming from that side. The laughter was sharp and piercing, as if it could penetrate the soul.

Several evil spirit lords rushed out at an extremely fast speed. Their bodies were twisted and they exuded a terrifying aura.

Jiang Che felt the familiar breath, stood at the entrance of the passage, and resolutely opened his arms.

Ding Ning rushed into Jiang Che's arms immediately.

She leaned her head on Jiang Che's shoulder, greedily feeling the rare warmth.

Behind her, several evil spirit lords followed closely like ghosts.

They are tall and have strange and deformed appearances. Some have bodies twisted like pretzels, some have seriously disproportionate limbs, and some have heads covered with hideous horns.

A terrifying evil aura emanated from his entire body, which was like billowing black smoke, thick and heavy, and seemed to have life, baring fangs and claws, madly distorting the surrounding space.

Their disdainful voices sounded from behind, "Is this the human you like?" The voice was like a sharp ice thorn, piercing straight into Jiang Che and Ding Ning.

The evil spirit lords began to look up and down at Jiang Che's strength with their wolf-like eyes, their eyes were full of arrogance and contempt.

"It's nothing more than that."

One of the lords snorted coldly, with a hint of contempt at the corner of his mouth.

They had only seen Jiang Che through various mirror images before, but this was their first time observing him up close.

Without any deformed or weird appearance, in the eyes of evil spirits, Jiang Che is no different from an ordinary human being.

They thought that this human being who was valued by Ding Ning would have something special, but they found that Jiang Che looked extremely ordinary.

Jiang Che saw several thick octopus tentacles flying towards him like black lightning.

The surface of the tentacle was covered with sticky liquid, flashing a disgusting luster, and each tentacle was covered with densely packed suction cups, like greedy little mouths, eager to suck him tightly.

The tentacles swept through the air, making a creepy whistling sound.

In addition to these hideous tentacles, there are also various strange forces that try to drill into his head and torture his spirit.

It was an invisible oppression, as if countless sharp needles were piercing his brain, and sharp hissing sounds kept echoing in his mind, trying to disturb his mind.

All kinds of horrifying illusions kept flashing before his eyes, including the distorted faces of the dead, bloody killing scenes, and an endless dark abyss that seemed to devour his soul.

However, Jiang Che did not move, and there was no fear in his eyes.

After Xue Tu's training for so long, he can already tell which attack is fatal.

He knew that these seemingly ferocious tentacles were nothing more than a means for the evil spirit lords to bluff.

Jiang Che's eyes remained firm and his face calm as water, as if the actions of these evil spirits before him were nothing more than a boring farce.

Ding Ning leaned against Jiang Che and watched the actions of the lords with a playful look.

You have to know that she had already given Jiang Che many targeted trials, and the original training was to prevent all this from happening.

Although she believed that Jiang Che would not feel fear when encountering these things.

But it is inevitable that these lords will have other bad intentions.

If Jiang Che showed fear at this time, it would be a slap in the face to the evil spirits, especially the lords of the same level as Ding Ning, which would be like a bloody feast. They were looking forward to seeing Jiang Che's fearful expression, so that they could enjoy the pleasure of bullying the weak, but Jiang Che's calmness dashed their expectations.

"Haha, you performed quite well." Seeing Jiang Che calm down, a lord snorted coldly.

"But I'm just playing around. I won't waste my time here with you guys." The lord who spoke looked around, frowning, his eyes eager and anxious, constantly searching for the trace of the Dark Mother Tree.

The passage suddenly opened just now, and they were caught off guard as they were clearing the passage.

The Dark Mother Tree was very difficult to clean up, but if it was cleaned up well, it would be of great benefit to you to devour the seeds of the mother tree.

That is a treasure that can help them reach a higher level of strength, and none of them want to miss this opportunity.

When they reach this stage, it’s not that they don’t want to make progress, it’s just that it’s difficult to make progress.

Most functional props have no effect on them. For ordinary survivors, some items that can leap to the fourth or fifth level are just simple things to them.

Those ordinary treasures and opportunities can no longer satisfy their desire for power.

Some lords set their eyes on Jiang Che. They suspected that Jiang Che had obtained the seeds of the dark mother plant, but they gave up after just one glance.

No matter how important Jiang Che is to Ding Ning, in their eyes he is just a human who cannot be promoted to SSS level.

From ss to sss, only they themselves know the difference.

That is a difficult chasm to cross, which requires not only talent and hard work, but also "position".

There are only ten positions at the SSS level, and they are all occupied.

Those below sss are all ants.

The dark mother plant must have sensed that the passage was about to be opened and evacuated in advance.

Jiang Che is at level 15, which is equivalent to their SS-level strength. Secretly hiding the seeds of the dark mother plant?
Totally impossible!
With his strength, he was unable to hide the scent of the seeds from the dark mother plant.

After figuring all this out, the major lords left one after another.

Ding Ning held Jiang Che's hand and said nothing more, "Let's go, let's go home."

“That dark mother plant…” Jiang Che was interrupted by Ding Ning before he could finish his words, “It ran away. It doesn’t matter. We won’t fight for it. It ran away.”

Jiang Che was just slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted.

He continued, "When I came here just now, I saw a dark shadow running away. Before I could figure out what was going on, you came out."

Ding Ning was stunned after hearing Jiang Che's words.

She simply didn't want to get involved in this matter. There was more than one Dark Mother Tree. For example, Dark Star had found other ways to become stronger, but there were also lords who were eyeing the Dark Mother Tree.

But she knew Jiang Che, and what Jiang Che said meant that he really knew where the dark mother plant was.

Ding Ning pulled Jiang Che towards his territory. She secretly observed Jiang Che along the way, but no matter how she looked, she could not see anything related to the Dark Forest.

There was no trace of the Dark Forest on Jiang Che.

She knew Jiang Che so well, yet she couldn't find any trace of the dark mother plant.

If it weren't for this, those lords wouldn't leave so easily. (End of this chapter)
