Zhang Ping followed the King of Mist and kept walking forward.
Because he had no reference, he didn't know how far he had traveled.
The sky is always gray, with a faint mist surging, and further away it is pitch black.
There is obviously no light source here, but it is not dark.
At least.
Zhang Ping's Night Walker is never triggered here.
When will this happen?
Can I still return to Pearl City?
I wonder what happened to Pearl City. Did the Beast Control Zhu family’s offensive stop or continue?
Are they okay, Fatty?
Zhang Ping is very worried about the situation in Pearl City, but now he has no way to leave here, and he doesn't know where the King of Mist is going to take him.
To be honest, it had been a long time since he had experienced this feeling of being unable to control everything and having to just go with the flow.
The soil is dry and feels a bit hard when you step on it.
Zhang Ping had heard in his previous life that black soil represents rich soil fertility, so this place should be very suitable for growing vegetables.
Suddenly, Zhang Ping wanted to laugh. Did he trigger the passive skill of the flower grower?
Next, keep going forward.
After walking for about another day and night, Zhang Ping finally saw something new.
To be honest, if he hadn't kept having random thoughts in his mind, he really didn't know if he would have a mental problem if he continued like this.
This place is too empty.
We are obviously moving forward, but we feel like we are standing still.
And now a tree appeared in front of him, a withered, black strange tree.
It's strange because it's covered with spiral-shaped branches that twist and turn like goat horns.
"What kind of tree is that?" Zhang Ping looked up at the King of Mist and asked cautiously.
The King of Mist replied: "I don't know."
It doesn't care what kind of tree it is.
I never thought about giving the tree a name.
perhaps……
It should give that tree a name.
If a child asks it in the future, will it be easy to answer?
But it couldn't name it, because it didn't have a name itself, so it fell into deep thought, how should it name it?
Just call it a tree, right?
The King of Mist continued to move forward in silence, while Zhang Ping watched the tree getting closer and closer.
Finally they passed the tree and left it behind.
Zhang Ping turned around and watched the tree walking backwards. Suddenly, the King of Mist behind him said: "Child, what do you think of calling it Black Tree?"
"ah?"
Zhang Ping was stunned and did not confront the King of Dark Mist.
The King of Mist thought that Zhang Ping was not satisfied with the name, so he continued to think about what name to give to the tree.
The two parties moved one behind the other, slowly moving in the black earth. Looking down from the sky, they looked like two dots, one large and one small. Compared to the black earth, they were darker and darker.
About twelve more hours passed.
Zhang Ping's eyes lit up slightly, and he saw a large number of mountain peaks appearing in front of him.
These mountain peaks are all black, and one mountain is constantly emitting black smoke.
When Zhang Ping and the King of Mist came to the middle of the mountains, the King of Mist said: "My child, your body is too weak. You will die if you go out. You must drink the black water."
As it spoke, it controlled black smoke to cut across the earth.
When the ground cracked, a large amount of black liquid spewed out from the ground, gradually forming a small pool of black water.
Zhang Ping swallowed his saliva and asked, "What will happen if I drink it?"
It's not that he doesn't dare to drink. After all, he has the ability of a glutton. Even if it's super poisonous, he dares to do it directly.
The problem is that the black water looks a bit disgusting, a bit like an unknown liquid emerging from a pile of corpses.
"Drink the black water and sublimate your fog!" the King of Dark Mist replied.
Zhang Ping looked at the black water again and asked: "Where did this black water come from?"
"I don't know." The King of Dark Mist replied.
It only needs to know whether the thing is good or bad, and it doesn't care how it came about.
Maybe……
Should it be concerned?
An idea came to the King of Dark Mist's mind. Looking at the black water, he suddenly felt like he knew where they came from.
"I drink!"
Zhang Ping was very worried about the situation in Pearl City, so even if the black water was water from the cesspit, he accepted it.
He squatted down and looked at the black water that kept emerging. He gritted his teeth and used his mind power to collect the black water and drank it in big gulps.
The King of Mist looked at Zhang Ping intently, and then he realized that he couldn't drink so much!
It was distracted by Zhang Ping's question. It was only thinking about where the black water came from and whether it should be concerned about this problem. It forgot to tell Zhang Ping that drinking too much black water would cause trouble.
After Zhang Ping drank the black water, the next moment he felt as if there were countless monsters roaring in his stomach.
The next moment, he covered his abdomen and curled up into a ball. All the blood vessels gradually bulged and turned black.
"It seems like something went wrong?"
Zhang Ping gritted his teeth and thought uncertainly.
Although a glutton is very strong, it is not without limits. If he eats something that a glutton cannot digest, then he must use his body to resist.
He also thought about transforming into a body of pure water, but the King of Mist was watching eagerly beside him, so he felt a little worried.
What if his body transforms into a body of pure water and the King of Mist reacts and realizes that he is a fake?
pain!
pill!
Zhang Ping was in so much pain that he almost wanted to roll on the ground, but if he really moved, he felt so much pain that he might as well not roll.
At this time, Zhang Ping suddenly felt that his stomach was absorbing some kind of power crazily, and then his skin naturally emitted billowing black smoke. Compared to the dark fog, this black smoke was more domineering.
What's even more amazing is that the dark mist and black smoke can perfectly blend together, so the dark fog and black smoke merge with each other to form a more illusory power.
The black smoke is real, while the dark mist is illusory.
The two seem to have a division of labor, the black smoke is like a flame, and the dark mist is like flowing water.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Ping was covered by the mist and turned into a big cocoon.
Zhang Ping felt much better in the cocoon of dark mist. He slowly relaxed his brows and tried to open his eyes but found that he couldn't. After a moment, his mind power spread out and he directly understood his situation.
His body was invaded by black water. Fortunately, Gluttony still played a role at the critical moment, so the Mist was updated from version 1.0 to version 2.0. The black water that was eroding his body was now being absorbed by the Mist.
At the same time, he also knew the nature of black water.
It is the power of materialized emotions, aggregated from endless creatures, possessing huge and terrifying power.
What exactly is there underground?
The more Zhang Ping thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. The existence of these black waters meant that there was something underground.
Corpse?
No, it's impossible for a corpse to have emotions.
Is it a living thing?
Zhang Ping's scalp felt numb and he couldn't help but want to ask the King of Mist.
But now he has to wait for all the black water he swallowed to be transformed before he can leave the cocoon.
