God of Pets

Chapter 71 Obtaining the Dark Lotus
Duan Shulin was straightforward. He didn't bargain, nor did he ask Chen Guan whether he would let him go after he got the pet back. He just returned the tomb owner directly, which surprised Chen Guan a little.

"Are you not afraid that I will kill you after taking your pet?" Chen Guan asked Duan Shulin after looking at him.

"My life is in your hands now. If you want to kill me, I will not survive. I can only trust you and take a chance." Duan Shulin took out a bottle of medicine from his arms with one hand, poured out a few pills with difficulty and swallowed them.

Almost all the finger bones of one of his hands were broken, and he was now unable to exert any strength. The bloody handprint on his chest had injured his internal organs. This was because he was wearing inner armor, otherwise this palm would have taken his life.

The bloody handprint combines both hardness and softness, and the palm force has a certain penetrating effect, and the inner armor cannot completely block the palm force.

Chen Guan ignored Duan Shulin and summoned the Tomb Master, asking him to walk into the cave where the Xuanming Yin Fire was burning and pick the Nether Lotus first.

Treasures that can increase the growth rate of pets are priceless. Even if they can only increase the growth rate by 0.1, they can be sold at a sky-high price.

Chen Guan naturally would not sell it. He was considering who to give the Nether Lotus to.

It would be better to use this kind of thing directly, otherwise if people knew that he had a treasure like the Nether Lotus, it would probably cause trouble.

After using it, even if others knew that he had owned the Nether Lotus, they would be unable to do anything about it.

Among Chen Guan’s pets now, the most valuable ones are Yanzhi and Mingfei, so the tomb owner can be directly excluded.

For a moment, Chen Guan thought of Zhan Guo, but then he thought that Zhan Guo's potential was too poor, and its growth rate was so low. It would not be of much use to feed it the Nether Lotus. Increasing its growth rate by 0.1 would not have much impact.

Zhan Guo was raised by Chen Guan since he was a child, and now he has become his first spiritual pet. It is not just a simple pet. Chen Guan plans to train him all the time. Even if his combat effectiveness is not good, his level must be improved. It doesn't take too much effort anyway. Pets like Zhan Guo are relatively easy to upgrade.

After much thought, it would be better to give it to Yanzhi or Mingfei. A pet that has broken through the 2.0 growth limit will be of immeasurable value if you want to sell it in the future.

Duan Shulin leaned against the stone wall and applied medicine to his injured parts. He was helpless when he saw the tomb owner walk into the cave.

If his hand didn't hurt, he really wanted to slap himself twice to stop it from doing such a shameful thing again.

If he hadn't been too proud of himself, he wouldn't have let Chen Guan know about the existence of the Minglian, and the Minglian would have been in his pocket.

"You can't blame me for being mean. If I don't have fun at this age, it will be a pity when I'm old and can't do it anymore." Duan Shulin comforted himself and was very open-minded.

Under Chen Guan's command, the tomb owner walked into the cave, and soon his body came into contact with the Xuanming Yin Fire, and was immediately wrapped in blue Yin Fire.

The tomb master did not stop and walked quickly towards the Nether Lotus. His whole body was wrapped in Yin Fire. There were no signs of burns on his body, but a layer of white frost. The white frost gradually increased, making the tomb master's body movements become much stiffer, as if he was frozen.

Fortunately, the tomb owner's Yin-Yang Bliss Body and Yin-Yang Harmony Method can effectively resist this Yin Fire, and the Yin Fire was unable to really hurt him.

Walking up to the Nether Lotus, the Tomb Master reached out and grabbed the stem, pulling the Nether Lotus up by the roots.

"Very good, come back soon." Seeing that the tomb owner succeeded, Chen Guan was overjoyed and quickly ordered him to come back quickly.

The tomb master had just turned when a sudden plume of black smoke erupted from the spot where the Nether Lotus had been plucked. The smoke, as thick as ink, instantly filled the cave like a volcanic eruption, submerging the tomb master's figure in the black smoke. Fortunately, Chen Guan reacted extremely quickly. The moment he noticed the black smoke rising from the ground, he had the tomb master throw the Nether Lotus out.

Chen Guan grabbed Minglian and turned to run. The black smoke was coming with great force. He didn't know what it was, and he didn't dare to let himself be trapped in the black smoke.

Duan Shulin endured the pain and followed Chen Guan. Fortunately, there was a bend in the cave ahead, and the black smoke was blocked when it hit the cave, and was unable to swallow them directly.

The two men crawled into the narrow crack passage like a goat intestine and climbed out desperately, fearing that they would be caught up by the black smoke coming from behind.

Chen Guan now dared not touch any black smoke, because the information of the tomb owner had disappeared from his pet. This could only happen in one situation, that is, the tomb owner was dead.

Only a few seconds had passed, and Chen Guan didn't even hear any sound. The owner of the tomb died just like that. It can be seen how terrifying the black smoke was.

The two struggled to climb out of the narrow crack, and the black smoke could not catch up with them, but they suddenly felt the earth shaking, and the entire Xuanyin Cave was shaking violently, as if it was about to collapse.

Black smoke emerged from the cracks and rolled towards Minglian like black snakes.
Chen Guan didn't have the heart to care about Duan Shulin anymore. He summoned Yanzhi and gave her the Dark Lotus, asking her to swallow it first. However, Yanzhi just sniffed it and didn't swallow it.

"The Dark Lotus is a treasure of extreme yin, and can only be eaten by pets with yin attributes." Duan Shulin saw black smoke coming from everywhere, leaving them with nowhere to run. Rocks kept falling from the cave, and it seemed like it was about to collapse. He seemed to have thought of something and shouted to Chen Guan.

Chen Guan didn't hesitate to summon Ming Fei, who was wearing the Kong Miao Sha armor. He asked Yan Zhi to hide her figure so that Duan Shulin couldn't see Ming Fei's appearance. At the same time, he gave her the Ming Lian and said, "Eat it."

Since Yanzhi doesn't want to eat it, then Mingfei will have to eat it.

Ming Fei took a look at the Nether Lotus in her hand, and seemed to recognize what it was. A sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she directly picked the flower of the Nether Lotus, casually broke it into petals and sucked them into her mouth, while throwing the remaining roots into the black fog.

The black fog actually wrapped around the roots of the Nether Lotus like a living thing, paused for a moment, and stopped expanding towards them.

After Ming Fei swallowed all the petals, the black mist actually rolled up the roots of the Ming Lotus and shrank back into the gap.

The cave was crumbling, and Chen Guan did not dare to delay. He took Mingfei back and ran out desperately, covering his head. Stones fell from time to time and almost hit him on the head several times.

After Chen Guan ran out of Xuanyin Cave, he found that there were many practitioners outside Xuanyin Cave who were gasping for breath, and many of them were injured. They must have just run out of the cave.

The nearby mountains and the earth were still shaking, especially the mountain where Xuanyin Cave was located, which was shaking even more violently.

From time to time, practitioners rushed out of the Xuanyin Cave. After a while, Duan Shulin also ran out with his seriously injured body and did not die in the cave.

Chen Guan was marveling at Duan Shulin's tenacious vitality when he suddenly heard a loud explosion. The peak of the mountain where Xuanyin Cave was located exploded, and black smoke rose into the sky like erupting magma.

The black smoke covered the sky and the sun. A huge creature was looming in the black smoke, puffing out smoke from its mouth. The smoke covered the blue sky and the bright day, turning the originally sunny day into a pitch-black night in an instant.

Instead, the giant creature in the black smoke was emitting a bright glow, which was indescribably strange and bizarre.
