When the finger touched her head, Mo Shuwan immediately held her breath, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit. But to her surprise, the finger only stayed on her head for a moment before moving towards Qu Dan and the others.

After the four of them had more or less of the monster's rotting flesh on their heads, they were pushed out of the stone door. Behind them came intermittent, muffled voices. They couldn't make out the details, but they could guess that the monster was telling them to come back on time.

After the massive stone door closed, the four men immediately took out tissues and wiped the rotting flesh off their heads.

The Black Spirit Clan members hiding in the distance saw them emerge and immediately jogged over. Seeing that the darkness surrounding them had completely disappeared, they nodded in satisfaction. "You did a good job. Come on, come back with us. There's still more to do."

Mo Shuwan didn't speak. After wiping the rotten flesh off her hair, she bent down and found the stone she had just dropped. She stood up with the stone in her hand and sneered, "We're going to collect the Dark Origin in our own way. You'd better not interfere, or don't blame us for being impolite."

The Black Spirit Clan members were shocked by Mo Shuwan's words; their mouths were agape and their faces were filled with disbelief.

Mo Shuwan smiled. "Aren't you curious why I can still retain my sanity? It has already granted us power and acknowledged our identities. Your little tricks will obviously have no effect on us. I advise you not to do anything to anger us, otherwise, don't blame us for speaking recklessly when we gather the Dark Source to meet it."

Qu Dan and the others, who had already picked up their belongings, looked at Mo Shuwan, who was lying without batting an eye, and couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in their hearts. They had never seen anyone lie so calmly, especially when the person in question was just a stone door away...

The Black Spirit Clan was shaken by Mo Shuwan's words. It was unpredictable that it would suddenly favor a new race, especially since this new race could help it collect the Dark Origin. The Black Spirit Clan cautiously probed Mo Shuwan: "You misunderstand. We didn't use any tricks."

Mo Shuwan sneered: "If you didn't use any tricks, then why are we standing here? Do I have to list out everything you've done?"

Taking in the expressions of the Black Spirit Clan members before her, Mo Shuwan narrowed her eyes and said, "Only our race can help it. If something happens to us and it loses access to the Dark Origin, no one can guarantee what it might do."

These words terrified the Black Spirit Clan members. They wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and said timidly, "We did it for its own good. You were just born, and we were worried that you wouldn't be able to complete the mission well, so we brought your souls here."

Soul?

The four of them stared wide-eyed, astonished by the new word. What made them even more incredulous was the information contained within it.

They brought their souls here... which means... they are just souls now?

Feeling shocked, Mo Shuwan fell silent, while the Black Spirit Clan members thought she was angry and hurriedly apologized with trepidation, "Your bodies should still be alive. I will take you to find your bodies right away."

Holy crap! It really is the kind of soul I imagined!

Qu Dan, who had been quietly waiting for Mo Shuwan to communicate with them, couldn't hold back any longer and said through gritted teeth, "You'd better hurry up!"

They never expected to uncover such a shocking secret so easily. The four of them looked rather grim. Fortunately, the Black Spirit Clan seemed to have a special method to find their bodies and had been heading in one direction since setting off.

It now seems that they didn't help search for Wen Zuo and the others at all before.

While Mo Shuwan and the others were searching for their bodies with the Black Spirit Clan, Zou Zhiqing and his two companions were still holding the black fruit given to them by the boy. How could they completely trust his words? They couldn't guarantee whether the fruit was edible or if there would be any unthinkable side effects.

Wen Zuo, who had picked Mo Shuwan up again, checked her wounds to see if they were getting worse. He was shocked to find that they had spread to her thighs. The only saving grace was that the wounds were only getting worse on the surface and hadn't damaged her internal organs.

“You just need to collect the Dark Essence and give it to me. I’ll handle the rest.” After saying that, the boy looked at Zou Zhiqing, who was holding the fruit and hesitating, with a helpless expression. “I swear on my life that there will be no problem with the three fruits. If you don’t believe me, I can eat them right now to show you.”

"Heh, of course it's fine for you to eat your own food." Zou Zhiqing maintained his disbelief in the boy.

No one noticed that the two sinners sitting on the outermost edge of the crowd were watching what was happening before their eyes. The corners of their mouths were slightly upturned, and the excitement in their eyes was starting to show. Of course, the corners of their mouths suddenly turned down when Yun Chen turned to look at them.

Under Yun Chenjing's icy gaze, the two sinners tensed up. This time, they did not look away, but looked at Yun Chenjing back. However, they quickly looked away, feeling extremely aggrieved.

Although there are all sorts of abnormally strong monsters in the prison, those monsters are far away from these new criminals. They never appear in the same place. Who would have thought that in a mission world of this level, they would actually encounter a guy who could barely be called abnormal.

Seeing the two sinners look away, Yun Chen felt he had glared at them into submission, so he happily looked away and squatted down to stare at Hope and the tail of the stratosphere, completely forgetting why he had turned to look at the two sinners in the first place.
