Around the pool, there were piles of bones, some human and some of various animals, like a small graveyard.

Directly above the pool, a huge, dark red fleshy growth hangs from the cave ceiling, pulsating slowly like a heart!

Countless thick and thin blood vessel-like tissues extended from the tumor, piercing into the surrounding rock walls and the piles of bones on the ground, as if drawing nutrients!

The surface of the tumor was covered with distorted human faces and phantoms of souls struggling in pain, emitting silent wails. The extremely dense Yin energy and resentment almost formed a tangible black mist that permeated the cave!

"That's it!"

Ling Qingxue's eyes narrowed. "It feeds on the flesh, blood, and souls of living beings, nurturing an evil embryo! The monsters from before were nothing more than its dissipated energy and puppets!"

Upon seeing this hellish scene, Su Lan and her team members gasped in shock, their stomachs churning.

The enormous tumor seemed to sense the intruder, its throbbing speed suddenly increasing, and the faces on its surface becoming even more distorted and painful!

Glug glug—!

The murky pool began to churn violently, with huge bubbles rising and bursting, releasing an even more foul odor.

Immediately afterwards, countless monsters of all shapes and sizes crawled out of the pool and the surrounding piles of bones!

Some were monsters we'd seen before, while others were newer, larger and more ferocious!

Their scarlet eyes were fixed on the intruders, and they roared in a low voice as they swarmed around them like a tide!

"Prepare for battle!" Su Lan roared hoarsely, his voice trembling with tension.

Night Enchantress licked her lips, her eyes gleaming with demonic light: "Finally something decent! My hands have been itching for ages!"

Ling Qingxue's immortal power began to gather, and her icy blue eyes locked onto the throbbing, enormous tumor.

Zhang Shaozhong took a deep breath, feeling the surging chaotic energy within his body. Looking at the monsters surging towards him like a tide, he felt no fear, but instead a strong fighting spirit surged within him!

"Come on! I'll wipe out this den of thieves today!"
