Chapter 344 - 342: This Is His Responsibility as a Family Member

Jiang Che only felt his consciousness submerged in darkness.

In the distance, there was a familiar small building; it was his home.

Inside, the orange light spilled out through the windows, illuminating the glass, the building, the street...

This was a straight path leading home, the street lamps on both sides also bright orange; beyond this road lay ruins.

Beyond the road, the world was gradually collapsing.

The home before his eyes also rippled like water from time to time.

Each time it rippled, Jiang Che's consciousness would become clearer.

His mental world was breaking down, but he desperately tried to keep the home in his mental world intact.

He saw what looked like a few people standing at the doorstep, the projection of the family photo in the depths of his consciousness seemed to be waving at him.

The photo in Jiang Che's consciousness turned from black and white to color.

He walked step by step toward the position of home, each step grew increasingly heavy; he walked for a long time, yet the distance never shortened.

He seemed to hear the voice of the Dark Mother Plant, yet heard nothing at all.

He had already forgotten what he was supposed to do, he only knew he had to go home, he must go home.

"Jiang Che..."

"Jiang Che..."

Jiang Che only felt a familiar voice calling him, yet he couldn't quite hear it clearly.

At this moment, Ding Ning was making the final choice with the Octopus Lord.

Most humans and evil spirits within the dungeon had already died.

The other group of evil spirits also listened to her, and the Dark Mother Plant which had fused with Hua had been devoured and destroyed.

Next, she would sacrifice herself and then let Hua leave.

Thinking this, she sighed, her only regret was not being able to properly say goodbye to Jiang Che.

She had no regrets.

Humans make choices at different stages of life.

She always treated Hua as her sister, so doing anything for her was only natural.

From the moment Hua sacrificed her life to help her deal with the Dark Mother Plant, she had made her own decision.

At this moment, the octopus's consciousness had already split.

Within its body, two different consciousnesses were vying for dominance.

As the Dark Mother Plant successfully devoured the part of Hua's Dark Mother Plant, it was now able to gain the upper hand in the Octopus Lord's consciousness.

"Don't worry, I will surely keep my promise; I will help you release this little flower," having devoured a weakened Dark Mother Plant, it felt a significant improvement.

As for the octopus, it didn't concern it at all.

If it wasn't still useful, it would have dealt with the Octopus Lord already.

Thinking about the Dark Mother Plant outside, that was madly eroding its consciousness; once it solved the matters here, it would give that opportunist a lesson!

Ding Ning looked at Hua in her palm; her consciousness was slowly waking up, though not to the extent of being fully aware.

Seeing Hua recover, the heavy stone in her heart was set down.

At this time, Jiang Che was still lost wandering in his mental world, looking ahead, never stopping.

But in the next moment, he found the image of Ding Ning by the front of the house was rapidly fading.

Jiang Che paused, then began to run frantically, trying to grasp the quickly fading Ding Ning, but couldn't stop her from disappearing.

Ding Ning was already mentally prepared, calmly facing death.

But she saw the expression of the octopus twist; it seemed the two consciousnesses within its body had a disagreement.

One wanted to leave the dungeon, the other to stay.

During the struggle, ultimately, the Dark Mother Plant prevailed.

It rushed toward the dungeon exit, instantly unlocking the trap confining them.

The octopus's trap was somewhat special; usually, in dungeons, the Lord is not a participant.

But in this dungeon, the Octopus was one of the most important participants.

Now that it left, the entire dungeon dissolved immediately.

Looking at Hua in her hand, Ding Ning was suddenly puzzled.

What happened?

How did they suddenly survive?

The participants from the Octopus Lord's dungeon woke from a dream; seeing the dissolved barrier, all challengers felt a surreal disbelief.

Ding Ning was almost moved to tears, she swiftly rushed back with Hua.

At this moment, Hua needed careful nurturing to recover, not to encounter any more accidents.

At this moment, Jiang Che was attacking crazily, devouring.

When the Dark Mother Plant controlling the Octopus Lord emerged, its first sight was Jiang Che madly devouring them.

It saw two consciousnesses devouring it, at first stunned, then realized that the one devouring it was a human consciousness.

There was also the Dark Mother Plant originally in the Dark Star dungeon.

"?? You've lost your qualification!" At the sight of the other in an instant, it exclaimed in astonishment.

"Lost it, naturally one must find ways,"

When the Octopus Lord glanced at Jiang Che in that instant, it realized that Jiang Che, a human, now had a throne.

"Ridiculous, think a human with a throne will devour me?"

It sneered, ready to reverse the attack, "I just devoured one, didn't plan to act on other mother plants so quickly, you delivering yourself, so impolite."

Jiang Che's Dark Mother Plant didn't speak; now it couldn't control Jiang Che.

Even though it knew Ding Ning had just returned.

But Jiang Che didn't know; if not for the throne holding his spirit from collapsing, Jiang Che's Spiritual Power would have long lost consciousness in this turbulent mental struggle.

It attempted to convey Ding Ning's information to Jiang Che, but he seemed too absorbed in his world, unable to hear outside voices.

Now, he charged forward on the path of uncompromisingly rescuing his family.

The Dark Mother Plant opposite tried to strike Jiang Che, but when its consciousness finally collided with Jiang Che's, it found Jiang Che's mental awareness was already battered, ready to collapse anytime.

"Just this?" It laughed; sending a wrecked body over to it, wasn't this just free food?

But Jiang Che's Dark Mother Plant earnestly watched their clash.

During the entire devouring journey, it thought Jiang Che would be countered.

By this point, the throne's function was already negligible.

If he merely grew and spread his consciousness, the throne could sustain him.

But he attacked another mother plant with a throne and a Lord dungeon; the throne's function seemed trivial.

It also thought Jiang Che's consciousness would shatter, would collapse, but it never did.

Jiang Che's state lasted a long time; long enough each time it thought Jiang Che would shatter and die, he persevered.

The Dark Mother Plant didn't understand human emotions.

But at that moment, it seemed to understand, even if Jiang Che lost consciousness charging so, he believed this was the responsibility he must bear for this home.
