Chapter 2008 - 2005: I’m So Hot

"Foolish human race, I did not concern myself with you, yet not only did you not show gratitude, you even dared provoke me. You are courting death!"

The Netherworld Beast with a lion’s head and tiger’s body spoke with a human voice, its voice deep and authoritative, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"A Netherworld Beast with awakened intelligence?" Loli’s face turned pale with fright as she looked at Xu Wendong in terror: "Lin Mo, you’ve doomed me!"

As she cried out, she turned and started running towards Xu Wendong, while her longbow trembled continuously, unleashing arrows like raindrops at the Netherworld Beast.

The Netherworld Beast was completely enraged, roaring as its massive wings flapped violently, whipping up a storm.

The dense power in the air instantly condensed, transforming into two huge stones that hurled towards Loli.

Loli was unable to dodge and was trapped by the boulders, unable to move.

"Damn!" Loli was filled with shock, a sense of despair enveloping her heart.

She never expected that instead of successfully diverting the Netherworld Beast’s attention, she trapped herself in a dire situation.

"Lin Mo!" Loli screamed in despair.

At this moment, Xu Wendong’s eyes sharpened and with a swift motion, he threw a Netherworld Talisman.

The Netherworld Talisman traced an arc in the air as it flew towards the Netherworld Beast.

The Netherworld Beast saw this and opened its menacing maw, swallowing the talisman whole, as if mocking humanity’s insignificance and ignorance.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and save me!" Loli was so anxious, tears ran down her face, her voice trembling with a sob.

As she watched the Netherworld Beast coming closer with its abyssal mouth open, terror gripped her heart.

However.

Just as the Netherworld Beast was about to bite Loli, a dazzling light burst forth from within its body.

Immediately after, a powerful wave exploded like a bomb, intertwining Yin energy and Soul Power into surging waves that spread rapidly from the beast as the center.

The Netherworld Beast’s body couldn’t withstand this immense force, flesh splattering as it let out a cry of agony.

Xu Wendong’s lips curled slightly, showing a hint of confident smile.

Indeed, the Fourth Grade Nether Talisman, Gold Chaos, had an unimaginable power; once it fully erupted, even a strong practitioner of the Ghost Control Realm would have trouble resisting, let alone this Netherworld Beast.

"What... what is this?" Loli was stunned, covered with blood splattered from the beast, her eyes filled with shock.

"A Netherworld Talisman, its power must be around Fifth or even Sixth Grade!" Loli muttered to herself, her eyes filled with respect as she looked at Xu Wendong.

Thinking back to the battle in the valley, where Xu Wendong had fiercely driven away his pursuers with hundreds of Thunder Hundred Feet Talismans, somehow, now it didn’t seem surprising.

"I told you, I can handle this Netherworld Beast." Xu Wendong displayed a charming smile.

"You, why didn’t you use this earlier?" Loli shouted at Xu Wendong, both angry and huffy.

Feeling an unbearable heat inside, she instinctively licked the blood at the corner of her mouth.

Instantly, a powerful surge of Soul Power coursed through her body, making her cry out: "The blood of this Netherworld Beast has the ability to enhance Soul Power!"

Xu Wendong smiled faintly and said, "The Netherworld Beast is yours, but the rest of the treasures are mine, okay?"

Loli had risked her life to attract the beast’s attention; he couldn’t be too stingy.

The Netherworld Beast of the Ghost Control Realm, its blood and corpse are rare treasures in the world.

Loli managed to get them, indeed a stroke of luck.

But what Xu Wendong longed for was the mysterious treasure hidden underground.

Loli had no objection to this; she quickly took out an exquisite small jade bottle and carefully began collecting the beast’s blood.

During the collection, she couldn’t help but sip occasionally, as if tasting the most delicious nectar in the world.

In this perilous Nether Ruins, strength is fundamental to survival.

Given Loli’s current cultivation level at the Third Level of Tongyou Realm, the chance of surviving in this dangerous land was minimal.

Since the blood of this Netherworld Beast could enhance her cultivation level, she would certainly not miss this rare opportunity.

However, as the blood consumption increased, Loli gradually felt unbearably hot as if a blaze was raging inside her.

The overwhelmingly dense Yin energy made her consciousness blur, leaving her feeling dizzy and her steps faltering.

Xu Wendong paid no mind to Loli’s unusual state, as he focused intently on searching the spot where the Netherworld Beast had stomped earlier.

"Senior, is the treasure beneath here?" he softly asked the Painting Saint.

Since the Painting Saint had sensed the treasure here, it must be true.

Earlier, the Netherworld Beast relentlessly attacked this spot, seemingly trying to unearth what lay beneath.

Unfortunately, the beast’s mismatched body, with its four sturdy elephant-like legs, wasn’t suited for digging, leaving it helplessly anxious.

"Kid, the Heaven and Earth Treasures can restore Divine Souls are below, but they’re buried quite deep, you probably won’t find them all at once."

The Painting Saint’s voice echoed in Xu Wendong’s mind: "Moreover, you’re about to face trouble, I can’t assist you next, you’ll have to manage on your own!" After this, it fell silent.

Xu Wendong looked puzzled, raising his head in confusion, scanning around.

Trouble?

What trouble?

He looked around, but nothing seemed unusual, except the flushed-faced, blurry-eyed Loli tottering towards him.

"What’s wrong with you?" Xu Wendong asked with a frown, puzzled.

How much beast blood had she consumed to end up like this?

The blood was beneficial to cultivation, but shouldn’t be consumed so indiscriminately.

"Lin Mo, I’m so hot..." Loli’s voice trembled with a sob: "This beast’s blood seems to be poisonous, you... you must help detoxify me."

Saying this, her hands began tearing at her clothes uncontrollably, her fair skin gradually exposed to the air, heat continuously emanating from her as if she might be cooked through.

Xu Wendong was startled, his eyes flickered, quickly he dabbed some Netherworld Beast blood using his finger and sniffed it.

"Hmm? Besides the dense Yin energy, it has no other special effects!" He muttered to himself, observing Loli’s condition that seemed like she was poisoned by aphrodisiac.

But this blood didn’t have any aphrodisiac components!

Suddenly, Xu Wendong slapped his forehead as he realized.

This is the Netherworld!

In the Netherworld, Yin energy is the basis for cultivation, and women are naturally Yin.

Loli had absorbed an enormous amount of Yin energy in a short time, leaving her body unable to cope; problems were inevitable.

"Calm down, I’ll relieve the symptoms for you." Xu Wendong’s face was flushed with embarrassment!

At this moment, Loli’s breathing was rapid, her eyes full of fiery desire, and Xu Wendong in her vision blurred increasingly.

"I’ve done as you asked, you must join my Divine Yin Hall!" she shouted stubbornly, her voice carried a tone of uncompromising firmness.

"No, I refuse." Xu Wendong said as he quickly pulled out a silver needle, intending to treat Loli.

However, Loli seemed to lose her mind, suddenly swinging her hand and knocking Xu Wendong’s silver needle to the ground.

"You... how can you go back on your word?" Her eyes reddened, tears welling as she pleaded: "We agreed, I’d attract the beast’s attention, and you would join the Divine Yin Hall."

"Am I really inferior to Li Jiayin?"

Loli unsteady on her feet, staggered as she lunged at Xu Wendong, finally collapsing into his embrace.
