Inside the Dark Domain, Gu Mingyue and the others were searching for the Dark Domain Lord within the Golden Tower.
"The Lord of the Dark Realm cannot leave the Golden Tower. It must be hidden in one of the golden bricks on a certain floor. Let's search together."
Gu Mingyue didn't waste time arguing with Wu Qian. After saying that, she began to search with Xinghe, mentally probing every nook and cranny of the Golden Tower.
The Lord of the Dark Domain was severely injured by her Bloodsucking Blade and was extremely weak at this moment, making it the best time to kill the monster and obtain the crystal.
Moreover, Xinghe cannot enter the space within the Black Domain. After an hour, his consciousness may dissipate like that of an ordinary person.
Gu Mingyue was extremely anxious as she followed the strange yellow light in her mental exploration.
However, the Lord of the Dark Domain was quite powerful. He sensed a strange energy following him, rapidly traversing the golden wall, attempting to deplete Gu Mingyue's supernatural energy.
Gu Mingyue also felt the energy draining away rapidly, so she could only reduce the number of probes to once every ten seconds.
Lu Qingchen's side was quite active in the search, and the group split into teams to search in different locations.
One of the couples was gossiping lazily: "Those two were able to seriously injure the Lord of the Black Domain, so our Qingchen can definitely do it too."
"I just saw that the man next to that woman seemed to have broken limbs and neck, barely hanging on with iron hooks, and his knees wouldn't bend when he walked."
"Tsk tsk, has he turned into a monster? How can a human survive with his head and limbs cut off?"
After the man finished speaking, he shivered and stood on the escalator looking at Gu Mingyue and the other person who were trying to search for the Lord of the Black Domain. His eyes were filled with fear and disgust.
“I think we should stay away from them. These two are not good people to begin with. Ouch, if you’re going to talk, just talk. Why are you blowing air into my ear?” Another woman felt a breath of cold air blow into her ear, which made her feel itchy all over.
"Why would I blow on your ear? You're not a virgin..."
The man turned to look at his companion and saw a emaciated girl's head emerging from the gold bricks on the stairwell wall. Her long, sharp gold fingernails had pierced through his companion's skull, splattering warm blood all over his face.
With a flick of her bright red tongue, the girl brought his companion's crystal core into her mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it. The girl's skin gradually became fuller, and then she looked at him with a strange and bloodthirsty smile.
"A monster...a monster is here, someone save me." It was the first time he had ever seen a monster suddenly emerge from the wall, and he was quite frightened.
Forgetting to use his special abilities, he shakily came downstairs and ran to Gu Mingyue and the other person.
Hearing his shouts, Gu Mingyue rushed over and asked anxiously, "Where is the monster?"
“Yes…yes…” The handsome man’s lips trembled.
Whoosh!
Gu Mingyue directly raised the knife to his neck: "Take me there, or I'll chop you up."
With his life threatened, the man abandoned any thoughts of hiding or delaying and led the two men up the escalator.
Lu Qingchen and the others gathered around after hearing the shouts.
When Gu Mingyue went up to take a look, she only saw the corpse of a woman whose head had been blown off. There was no trace of the Black Domain Lord's aura. She was immediately furious.
"You're also a level two wood-type ability user, why didn't you hold it off?" Gu Mingyue reprimanded coldly.
"That monster suddenly appeared from the wall, isn't it reasonable for me to be scared?" The man regained his confidence when he saw Lu Qingchen and the others gathering around.
"Useless!" Gu Mingyue glanced at him coldly. "That monster can eat people. If it returns to its peak state, we'll all be dead here today."
"Hmph, I think it's the man next to you who's really going to die. We can just run out of the Black Domain at midnight." The handsome man stood back next to Lu Qingchen, feeling indignant about being scolded by a woman and losing face.
“I see your man seems to be badly injured. Why don’t we check him out? What if he’s been assimilated by a monster? Wouldn’t that mean we’ve gained another enemy?”
As he spoke, he flung out the vines that he had never exposed even when facing monsters, attempting to wrap them around Xinghe's arm, which was barely held in place by a hook, so that everyone could see Xinghe's monstrous body.
Upon seeing this scene, Gu Mingyue raised her amber eyes, her gaze unusually fierce.
Lu Qingchen conjured a wind blade in his hand, severing the man's vines, and stepped forward to quell the anger on both sides. However, Gu Mingyue didn't give him a chance to speak.
She had just reached level four and hadn't had a chance to properly test her abilities yet, so this was a good opportunity to put her powers to the test.
A mental piercing, imperceptible to most, crept up the man's head without his knowledge, throwing his brainwaves into chaos.
The man who had just tried to attack Xinghe suddenly became dazed, his lips wouldn't close, he started drooling, and then he ran downstairs like an idiot.
"Xiaowen, what's wrong?" Everyone around Lu Qingchen was stunned by what they saw.
Gu Mingyue stopped them, saying, "Shh, this guy seems crazy. We can use him as bait."
The people around Lu Qingchen condemned her with righteous indignation: "Xiao Wen is a living, breathing person. How could you use him as bait?"
"How could you be so vicious, woman!"
These curses were nothing to Gu Mingyue. All she wanted to do now was kill the Lord of the Black Domain as soon as possible and let Xinghe enter the space to repair his body. Besides, she was ruthless by nature and had nothing to do with saints!
Lu Qingchen knew that everyone was in the same boat, so he comforted them and apologized to Gu Mingyue. Gu Mingyue ignored him completely and continued to search for the location of the Lord of the Black Domain.
