The calm Wan Haiyuan hides unknown turmoil, and the humid air is filled with fishy and unknown smells.

"pat-"

The dead branches on the ground were trampled to pieces.

Bai Jiu shuttled through the darkness, her soul power surged, and she had already broken through the sixth level.

After she was sucked into the mysterious space, she hibernated for half a year before killing those two people. Afterwards, she obtained the inheritance of the Soulless Emperor and successfully broke through from the fourth level to the sixth level of the Soul Realm.

She has been looking for more than a month since she came out, but she still hasn't found Bai Jin.

Wan Haiyuan... Cocklebur...

The knocking sound from the dark place on the left made Bai Jiu clenched her dagger tightly and approached softly.

One step, two steps...

In the darkness, he opened a pair of piercingly red eyes.

It's just a soul bird that eats carrion.

Bai Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, and pushed aside the green vegetation to reveal the whole picture.

There were some white bones scattered in front of the swamp, with rotten flesh still stained on them, and two or three soul birds were eating.

There are also some small objects on the ground half buried in the green swamp.

Bai Jiu, who was always calm, covered her mouth and nose, looked around while holding back the stench with a heavy face, and left quickly without seeing any changes.

The swamp once again returned to its lifeless appearance, and two or three soul birds uttered sharp and mournful calls, echoing in the empty land of sin.

Bubbles suddenly appeared in the middle of the swamp, a cocklebur plant broke through the mud, and the three leaf fans glowed with a faint green light, emitting a strange and inexplicable fragrance in the dark.

Bai Jiu searched for another half a month, and finally left Wan Haiyuan with a cold face.

Shazhen - the nearest town to Wan Haiyuan.

No matter how small a town is, there may be no auctions, but there must be pubs and teahouses.

"Guest officer, what would you like to drink?"

Xiao Er served the drink to the people next to him and greeted the new girl.

"Soul tea."

"Okay, this way please—"

Bai Jiu glanced around from the corner of her eye and sat alone at a table.

"Wan Haiyuan is really not a good place, that ghostly place is very gloomy, once you go there, you will lose ten years of your life."

"If it's not because of the high price? Which of the things in it doesn't start at a price of [-]? Pearl cotton, wood flower plants, cocklebur, the whole soul is just Wan Haiyuan."

"You say it's really strange. Most of these are women's jewelry or something. They grow in such a dark place. Do those delicate ladies dare to wear them?"

Bai Jiu's body paused.

Make jewelry?

Recalling the dress and face of the woman in my mind, it seems that I really like these things.

"Hey, we don't care about this anymore. People from big families are self-willed. I heard that those first-rate and second-rate families have to customize a batch every year."

"It's only a matter of cocklebur. If you don't raise it for three or four years, I'm afraid it won't be able to recover."

"Hey, brother, is this your first time doing a mission? You don't want to go with your clean appearance."

Many newcomers around were attracted to the attention and moved over one after another.

Bai Jiu, who had heard the previous conversation clearly, frowned tightly, lowered her head to think about something, and didn't even respond when Xiao Er put the tea on the table.

"Guest officer? Guest officer?"

Bai Jiu woke up with a start.

"Sorry, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, there are ten soul stones in total."

Bai Jiu took out the soul stone and handed it over, and Xiao Er said, "Please take it easy, guest officer" and turned to leave.

"Wait, ask me something." Bai Jiu stood up and grabbed Xiao Er who had only walked two steps, raised his hand and handed five more soul stones.

The man took the soul stone with a smile on his face.

"I'm looking for cocklebur, do you know where they can be found?"

"Xanzi, it is usually found in the swamps in Wanhaiyuan."

Xiao Erzai took a close look at the woman's face, and said mysteriously: "Seeing that you have closed eyes, I will give you a reminder. For someone like you, it's best not to go in person."

Bai Jiu pretended to be puzzled and continued to ask.

"Why?"

"If you are an outsider, you definitely don't know that this Xanthium exudes a strange fragrance, which is easy to attract demons."

Bai Jiu was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't know this time.

Although she is only in her 40s, she has experienced strong winds and waves, and she has never heard of any monsters.

He quickly handed over another five soul stones.

"Demon? What demon?"

In the depths of Wan Haiyuan, a figure leaped across.

Bai Jiu's face was full of panic, eyes sparkled, and Xiao Er's words lingered in her mind.

"The sand demon, because it likes the smell of cocklebur, lives with it all year round."

"Do you know why we are called Sand Town?"

"Thousands of years ago, our place was still a sand field, and there was a magical and powerful monster in it, which could live under the sand, and anyone who passed by would be attacked."

"Later, after changes, the sand sea became a forest. I thought it was dead, but it reappeared a hundred years ago, and we discovered that the sand demon is still alive and well."

"This sand demon loves beauty the most. If an ugly person provokes it, he will die at most. Regardless of whether he is a man or a woman, anyone with a little bit of beauty will be tortured to death by it."

"It is rumored that this monster first has sex with people, and then slowly sucks it dry."

"The monster likes the guest officer so white and clean, so generally anyone who dares to look for Xanthium is an extremely ugly person."

Looking for the route in memory, I found the swamp again.

The soul bird was still there, swallowing the carrion in its mouth mouthful.

Bai Jiu frightened away all the soul birds like crazy, and turned over a pile of bones with her hands.

Tears dripped on the bones, and then dripped into the black soil.

"You... Bai Jin... Bai..."

Bai Jiu knelt on the ground, moving little by little, his fingernails were full of mud mixed with carrion.

There was no trace of calm on the icy little face, only boundless collapse and fear remained.

"what--"

"Bai... Jin..."

Sadness filled the whole body, and the syllables were indistinct, only whimpering and whimpering.

Between the trees, there was silence.

In front of the swamp where cocklebur grew, a woman was kneeling, holding a bone in her hand.

Sobbing, weak and helpless.

"There are monsters in the sea... there are monsters..."

There are monsters in the sea, with a lustful temperament, handsome and beautiful, and cruel by nature.
