Gritting her teeth and waiting for the impact to subside, Mo Shuwan let out a long breath. She didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the pain coming from all parts of her body seemed to have lessened a lot.

"Hiss, Captain, do you guys have any particular feeling?"

Mo Shuwan's eyes were injured, and Xiwang was resting beside her. Unable to see Chenghua's actions through Xiwang's eyes, she could only listen carefully. She heard a sizzling sound, as if something was being burned, coming from Chenghua's direction.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Chenghua scratched the burned area on his arm with all his might. In the blink of an eye, a piece of flesh was gone from the scratched area. He seemed not to notice and continued to scratch hard. In the end, he scratched away all the flesh on his forearm, leaving only a piece of white bone stained with blood.

"It itches! Damn! Why is it so itchy?!"

As soon as the last word was spoken, Liu Dongcheng, who was sitting next to him, also felt itchy. He saw Chenghua's arm, but he couldn't control his hand and started scratching it. Before long, there was another pile of crumpled flesh on the ground, and the rich smell of blood began to slowly spread in the cave.

Mo Shuwan's expression suddenly changed. "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, it's just itchy."

"Chen Jiaxu?"

Chen Jiaxu seemed to have not expected this situation either. He was stunned for a moment, but when Mo Shuwan called out to him, he came back to his senses. His face turned ugly as he rushed forward and grabbed Cheng Hua and Liu Dongcheng's hands, "Stop scratching!"

"Fuck! Let me go!"

Cheng Hua was so angry that he wanted to fight Chen Jiaxu. Even Liu Dongcheng, who was standing next to him, glared at him with a cold look, as if to say that if he didn't let go, he would take action.

Meanwhile, the others in the cave also began to complain of itching. They could endure the excruciating pain of watching their bodies being corroded, but now they couldn't resist the itch and reached out to scratch. Often, when they scratched, a piece of flesh would be torn off their bodies.

The cave was filled with the stench of blood. Mo Shuwan grew anxious and quickly reached out to shake Hope, who was lying beside her, awake, trying to see through its eyes what had happened.

"grumble?"

"Go and see how Chenghua and the others are doing."

Hope got up from the ground and obediently walked to Chenghua. The scene it saw was also transmitted to Mo Shuwan, but unfortunately Mo Shuwan could only vaguely see black mist moving around on their bodies and could not see the specific situation.

The black mist, needless to say, is definitely dark power, but dark power is everywhere here, so why are they only showing this reaction now?

Why wasn't I affected?

Mo Shuwan frowned, "Wen Zuo?"

"Yes." Wen Zuo responded, and after binding the last person tightly, he walked back to Mo Shuwan's side and whispered, "I've checked, only the four of us haven't been affected."

Mo Shuwan, Wen Zuo, Yun Chen, and even Chen Jiaxu.

"how so……"

Chen Jiaxu quickly tied Chenghua and Liu Dongcheng up, his eyes filled with confusion. "I don't remember this happening before?"

Sitting between Cheng Hua and Liu Dongcheng, Yun Chen disgustedly pushed away the two who were about to rub against him to relieve their itch. Then, he took out a crystal with a trace of dark power from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and started chewing it. The sound was particularly jarring in the cave.

"Think carefully, is there anything about this situation different from anything you've experienced before?"

Chen Jiaxu nodded nervously, trying to recall the details, but the constant crunching sound made it impossible for him to concentrate. He said speechlessly, "Stop chewing! Wait! I've got it!"

"What?"

"I remember you didn't give them any crystals back then!"

Wen Zuo frowned, "You—"

Upon hearing Wen Zuo's voice abruptly stop, Mo Shuwan and Yun Chen instinctively became alert, and even Chen Jiaxu quickly shut his mouth and cautiously looked around. However, nothing happened except for the increasingly strong smell of blood in the cave.

"cough……"

Wen Zuo took out paper and pen from his storage bag, wrote a few words in the dark, and then took out a flashlight to shine on the light.

In fact, just now when Wen Zuo took out paper and pen, the three of them guessed that the voice-restoring medicine had probably failed. And obviously, there was no extra voice-restoring medicine in the storage bag. At this time, Wen Zuo being unable to speak was a very bad piece of news.

—Tell me in detail everything that happened before your 'rebirth'.

Chen Jiaxu considered it carefully for a moment before slowly speaking.

A dozen minutes later, Mo Shuwan said in a low voice, "So, in your memory, not long after we entered this place, people started dying, and eventually, everyone except you died?"

Chen Jiaxu nodded, somewhat helplessly touching the horns on his forehead. "It's probably because of these two horns that I'm not much of a threat here. The reason I died is quite simple: I was killed by the dark beast guarding the herbs when I went to pick them."

As Chen Jiaxu said, the cause of his death was really simple and quite mundane. Mo Shuwan frowned slightly, feeling that something was off.

She vaguely watched Wen Zuo write and communicate with Chen Jiaxu, her mind constantly pondering what exactly was out of place.

"Damn it! You can't keep tying us up like this!"

"Aaaaaaah, it itches so much!!!"

"Let go of me!"

With their hands bound, the group couldn't scratch, and could only scream in frustration. Mo Shuwan's thoughts drifted away, thinking that if given a chance, they would definitely break free without hesitation and scratch her to a skeleton.

The hand that was stroking hope suddenly paused, "An opportunity..."

Yes, but what was the opportunity? Chen Jiaxu said he was reborn, so what was the opportunity that led to his rebirth?
