Chapter 3321

~8 min read 1,564 words

The trade item brought out by the Lush Madness was truly unexpected. Just as Su Xiao was about to speak, the aura of the Lush Madness disappeared, obviously having already left, leaving behind a piece of tree root nearly half a meter long.

Of the 10 pages of "Tree-Born Leaf" that Su Xiao obtained, 4 remained. Most of the consumption was trading with the Lush Madness. Although they were already "old friends," Su Xiao still maintained appropriate vigilance toward the Lush Madness. The reason is that if he touches the tree roots of the Lush Madness, there is no exemption, and he will still be invaded by these tree roots into his body.

Su Xiao had seen many enemies invaded by these tree roots. These tree roots would spread to every corner of the body. That is not just agony; even the most terrifying torture cannot be compared to it.

Picking up the black pottery shard on the coffee table, Su Xiao found that this thing was different from before. That inexplicable feeling of palpitation disappeared, as if this pottery shard had severed its connection with the main body of the Abyss Jar.

This reminded Su Xiao of his previous trade with Wood, where the reward was a piece of the Lush Madness's tree root. After the Painting Contest ended, Wood likely found a place and threw the Lush Madness's tree root into the Abyss Jar that had just recovered. If prepared properly and not afraid of death, with Wood's personal ability, he could still do this.

Afterward, the Lush Madness and the Abyss Jar launched their second round of confrontation. The result was unclear. Just now, he didn't see any changes in the Lush Madness, even after eating two pages of "Tree-Born Leaf."

Assuming that the connection between this black pottery shard and its main body had been severed, the value of this thing was extraordinary. Given the evil nature of the Abyss Jar, Su Xiao calculated that he should be more cautious.

How to test whether this black pottery shard is dangerous? That goes without saying: of course, use the Ouroboros Slate.

Su Xiao took out the Ouroboros Slate from the team storage space. Just as text appeared on the slate, Su Xiao took out the "Container Shell" obtained in the Dark Star and touched it to the Ouroboros Slate.

The "Container Shell" disappeared immediately. Su Xiao examined the Ouroboros Slate. There was no change; it was still disc-shaped, about 25 cm in diameter, with a circle of black Ouroboros carvings on the edge. The inner plane was thinner and stone-white.

A line of text appeared on the Ouroboros Slate.

"Do not touch the pottery shard."

Su Xiao ignored the handwriting on it, picked up the black pottery shard, and touched it to the Ouroboros Slate. It started writing a small lesson on it.

"Do not let me touch it; it will bring you danger."

"Stop!"

"You will surely suffer the snake's curse."

"My great holder, you need my help."

"You will surely not die well."

"Believe me, I can help you."

Ignoring these, Su Xiao touched the Ouroboros Slate with the black pottery shard.

Click, click, click...

Dense cracks appeared on it. Although the Ouroboros Slate didn't shatter immediately, it was in a half-dead state and kept shaking. Black dark light surged within the cracks, and the black pottery shard that touched it had disappeared, merging into the slate.

Su Xiao was not worried that the Ouroboros Slate would have any mutations that would threaten him. This was in his exclusive room, an absolutely safe environment.

Letting Baha watch the changes in the Ouroboros Slate, Su Xiao walked into the alchemy laboratory. He wanted to use the "Eye Ritual" to cultivate a few Dark Eyes and continue to transplant them onto the Devourer · Black A. Ever since catching Black A in the No. 6 Shelter City on the seabed, Black A hadn't been very honest.

As the first-generation Devourer, Black A is not the best in all aspects, but its growth potential is unrivaled. The second-generation Devourer · Boiling Red was cultivated and modified by extracting samples from Black A.

This time, Su Xiao prepared to continue implanting 5 Dark Eyes into Black A, and then extract samples from Black A to cultivate the third-generation Devourer.

Su Xiao's plan was: if the next world is not the Tree-Born World, see if there is an opportunity to release the Devourer. If the timing is appropriate, release both the second-generation Devourer · Boiling Red and the third-generation Devourer, and let the hosts of these two generations of Devourers fight. This can not only collect data on the Devourers but also see which generation of Devourer is better. The final winning host can be entrusted with important tasks.

The first-generation Devourer · Black A cannot be sent out during this period. With its 6A panel, it needs to have some self-awareness. Counting the 5 newly transplanted Dark Eyes, Black A is a 12-eyed Devourer; it cannot go down to bully the little kids.

Black A, which has transplanted Dark Eyes again, will definitely be able to reach this intensity. It is absolutely uncontrollable and can only be used as a prime body. Using it as a cornerstone, cultivate subsequent generations of Devourers.

A few hours later, through inert anesthesia, Su Xiao implanted the newly cultivated Dark Eyes into Black A. This weakness of Black A must be retained regardless of the method used, otherwise Black A will sooner or later have a day of losing control. At that time, Black A must be killed completely.

Su Xiao can easily do this, but it's a pity. Devourers are being replaced generation by generation. He believes that one day, he will be able to cultivate the ideal Devourer.

"Boss, come and see."

Baha's shout came to the alchemy laboratory. Su Xiao strode out of the laboratory and saw the Ouroboros Slate floating in mid-air, with a line of text appearing on it.

"Hello, my noble master."

Seeing this line of text, Su Xiao smiled and lit a cigarette. This was the most exaggerated acting he had ever seen. Seeing this, Baha on the side said:

"Snake Slate, stop pretending. Recover, I still like your original unruly appearance."

"Hybrid poultry, shut up."

Text appeared on the Ouroboros Slate. Seeing this, Baha's eyes widened, and it was about to spray, but remembering being electrocuted by this slate last time, it calmed down. As a team BB machine, it chose to act cautiously, moving away before spraying.

"Tell me, what new ability have you obtained."

"Refuse to answer."

The Ouroboros Slate could refuse to answer, which means the method of trying to collapse the Reincarnation Paradise by asking the Ouroboros Slate what kind of existence it is has failed.

In this way, is Su Xiao helpless against the Ouroboros Slate? No, he can sell this slate to the Reincarnation Paradise. Anyway, neither this slate nor the black pottery shard is good stuff. Just sell them together.

As for the trade with the Lush Madness being a loss, Su Xiao didn't feel that way. Ever since he obtained the "Alchemy Secret Code" from the Lush Madness, no matter how he traded afterward, he wouldn't lose. The value of the "Alchemy Secret Code" is too high.

Su Xiao of course knew that the black pottery shard had great value, but he knew even better how miserably the Demon Race was cleaned up. He didn't believe that if he actively used this pottery shard to improve himself, the Reincarnation Paradise would interfere. That is absolutely impossible. Using what is a personal choice, and the consequences are also borne by the individual.

Su Xiao began to consult relevant authority on how to sell the Ouroboros Slate for the highest price. Suddenly, he had a better idea: why not temporarily hand over this slate to Caesar, and both sides would share 50% of all proceeds discovered during the period?

This slate seems to often give in, but it is soft and hard to eat, and it may turn against him at any time. Since that's the case, let Caesar arrange it. That guy Caesar even dares to mess with notarization problems.

After receiving Su Xiao's message, Caesar rushed over. 4 minutes and 23 seconds later, he arrived at the door of Su Xiao's exclusive room. After the door opened, he strode in.

"What gift is to be sent to Caesar? Bai Ye, Caesar is so moved. Today is Caesar's birthday."

Hearing this, Baha immediately said: "Give it a rest, this is your sixth birthday this year."

Baha had been fooled by Caesar in this regard. Once Caesar said pitifully that he hadn't had a birthday for a long time. Baha thought that the two sides often cooperated, and Caesar's expression was truly pitiful, so he took Caesar to eat and drink. Since then, Caesar often has birthdays.

"That's not important. I'll take a look at the goods. Is this the thing? Give it to me."

Caesar's eyes seemed to be shining. The next second, the Ouroboros Slate fell to the ground.

Caesar stepped forward to pick it up, spat a sticky phlegm directly on it, and then wiped it with his sleeve, intending to wipe the slate brighter.

Before Caesar left, Su Xiao vaguely saw on the Ouroboros Slate: "Law-Extinguisher, save me quickly!"
