Chapter 563: News of the Infinity Stones

【You have resisted the first curse erosion. Current status: Special Infected (1/15)】

【If you successfully resist the erosion within 15 days, you will obtain the Tese: Bone-Chilling Cold.】

Yun Wujiu sat inside the empty shop. This so-called shop was actually just a "rough shell," likely created by some form of Thaumaturgy that directly extracted rock from the underground and shaped it into the form of a building.

Furthermore, tables and chairs were made from the earth and stone, and an inner partition was even separated for rest. Each shop was about 60 square meters; it was not very large, but it was enough for a Reincarnator to live and rest alone.

Yun Wujiu looked at the notification on his panel with a grim expression. After discussing it with the people at the Gathering, he knew this likely came from the Sweet Home world's curse.

The 15-day cycle was very iconic.

Moreover, he was well aware that he indeed had weaknesses in his heart, which was why he was eroded by this kind of curse.

Losing consciousness directly on the first attempt made his situation very dangerous. If not for Tao Baibai's terrifyingly peerless Conqueror's Haki, he feared it would have taken quite some effort to regain his sanity.

Yun Wujiu sensed with his Spirit that Yang Yan had chosen a shop far away from him, so he stopped paying attention. By this time, he had already acknowledged Tao Baibai's strength.

It was indeed no longer on the same level as a Title-level Reincarnator like him. Although he could not confirm what domain Tao Baibai's 【Authority】 was in, based solely on his own meager mastery of elements, he was completely unable to rival the other's thunder.

What's more, as everyone knew, Tao Baibai was a Martial Artist...

Yun Wujiu lay down and began to calm his mind, waiting for the higher-ups of the Gathering to arrive and confer with Tao Baibai.

He vaguely guessed that the Far East Magic Society would likely no longer be able to occupy that mission alone. Given Yang Yan's profit-seeking and cowardly nature, there was a high probability he would hand that thing over to Tao Baibai in exchange for his own Survival.

Yun Wujiu emptied his mind, using meditation to control his Spirit and keep it stable, so that he would not suffer erosion again.

A night passed, and before the sun had risen, Yun Wujiu was startled awake by a biting chill.

He walked out of the shop only to see the sky covered in thick clouds and the temperature plummeting, as if they had instantly entered the autumn and winter seasons.

This celestial phenomenon was, without a doubt, the arrival of the Snow Witch.

The Snow Witch was a famous figure in the Third Tier, even more widely known than the Tree Shepherd; she was almost universally acknowledged as the third-ranking person of the Gathering, and furthermore, she was his team leader.

Frozen Yun Wujiu had joined the Snow Witch's team when she was in the Second Tier during his newcomer phase, and he had grown up under her protection.

Crackle!

In the sky, muffled thunder rolled again. Yun Wujiu was somewhat worried, but fortunately, the Snow Witch was a calm person; she did not clash with Tao Baibai, but instead landed outside the Paradise and walked in on foot.

"Lord Tao Baibai, it has been a long time. I did not expect that the power dynamic between us would have reversed."

The Snow Witch's voice was crisp, and her tone was quite peaceful. She seemed to have no thoughts regarding being surpassed by Tao Baibai.

The next moment, a human voice appeared in the Snow Witch's ear.

"Come up."

The Snow Witch looked up at the pitch-black Tower and her figure floated up.

She wore a long white dress, and her long black hair was thick and straight. Just looking at her appearance, she was quite quiet and demure.

Snow Witch Fu Qinghuan landed on the top floor of the Tower. She saw blue-white electric currents that were incredibly active; just by approaching this place, she felt a constant crackling in her ears, and her hair became slightly disheveled.

Fu Qinghuan looked into the tower. In the empty room, Tao Baibai sat cross-legged in the air, with faint electric currents constantly flashing across his body.

When she looked at Tao Baibai, Tao Baibai also happened to open his eyes.

Crackle!

Blue-white electric light burst forth, striking the black rock beside Fu Qinghuan.
