Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 187 Dream of the Mortal World's Straightforward
Xia Die was afraid that she would hurt Lu Jingming if she used too much force, and for a moment she was powerless to resist. She was extremely ashamed and dared not look at Meng Hongchen. She could only close her eyes tightly again and let Lu Jingming take what he wanted.

A few minutes later, under Meng Hongchen's resentful gaze, a strand of silver hair fell from their lips and quietly transformed into nutrients for the sea of ​​flowers beneath their feet.

Lu Jingming gently released Xia Die, who was breathing heavily, with a hint of lingering satisfaction in his eyes.

But he also knew when to stop. Xia Die's pampering of him was already enough. If it were Ke Qing or San Yue Qi, they would probably have pushed him away without hesitation the moment Meng Hong Chen appeared.

Despite her shyness, Xia Die's gentleness made Lu Jingming love her even more.

"Meng, what delicious food did you make today?"

Lu Jingming calmly accepted the lunchbox from Meng Hongchen with an indifferent expression.

Since he returned to Haiyuan City, Meng Hongchen has pursued him actively and passionately, often cooking various delicacies herself and sending them to him to taste.

Although Lu Jingming did not directly respond to these feelings, as time quietly passed, their relationship naturally became more and more familiar.

The change in how the two parties address each other is clearly visible. The initial somewhat awkward "classmate" has now become a more intimate form of address.

"It's your favorite golden shrimp balls. I specially went to that restaurant's head chef to learn how to make them."

Meng Hongchen was still somewhat dazed, not yet recovered from the scene she had just witnessed. When Lu Jingming asked her a question, she answered instinctively.

Xia Die hid behind Lu Jingming, her pretty face as red as a ripe apple, not daring to look at Meng Hongchen at all.

"Let's eat together."

Lu Jingming calmly led Xia Die and Meng Hongchen to an exquisite pavilion, where he then took out the food from the lunchbox one by one.

Lu Jingming sat in the middle, subtly separating Xia Die and Meng Hongchen.

After all, Meng Hongchen cannot get too close to Xia Die, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Meng Hongchen finally recovered from her shock. Her gaze lingered on Lu Jingming and Xia Die's lips for a long time, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Xia Die felt Meng Hongchen's burning gaze and was so shy that she wished she could disappear into the ground. She quickly lowered her head, her cheeks as red as the sunset.

Lu Jingming, however, remained calm. He casually picked up a tempting golden shrimp ball and gently fed it to Xia Die.

"Well, actually, I can do it too!"

A blush rose on Meng Hongchen's cheeks. She tilted her head slightly and pointed to her luscious red lips towards Lu Jingming, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Cough cough!"

This sudden and bold move made even the usually composed Lu Jingming lose his composure, and he almost choked on his saliva.

Xia Die was so surprised that she stared at Meng Hongchen in disbelief, never expecting that the girl would be so bold and straightforward.

Whose general is this? So brave!

"We'll talk about dreams later!"

Although Lu Jingming already knew that Meng Hongchen had a "giving away" personality, he really didn't expect her to be so undisguised, especially saying such things in front of Xia Die.

He was speechless. Did she really not care about this kind of occasion at all? That's incredibly brave of hers! No wonder she's Miss Meng!

“Okay, okay!”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Meng Hongchen's eyes, but at the same time, there was also a faint sense of relief. Her mood was like a tangled mess, extremely contradictory.

She was actually quite shy, but ever since she made up her mind to pursue Lu Jingming, she had long since put her shame behind her.

After all, how could a girl be so proactive if she hadn't mustered up her courage?
It was precisely Meng Hongchen's frank, straightforward, and unpretentious pursuit that led to a rapid improvement in her relationship with Lu Jingming in just a few months.

Given Meng Hongchen's straightforward and direct approach, coupled with the fact that she herself is a beautiful white-haired girl who is extremely attractive to Lu Jingming, it is quite remarkable that Lu Jingming has been able to restrain himself until now.

However, after today's scene, things will likely be very different from now on. Meng Hongchen may become bolder and more direct, and their interactions in the future will probably be even more interesting.

In the parallel world of Douluo Continent, strange changes have occurred once again since the emergence of the simulated universe.

Since when, in various corners of the Douluo Continent, strange entities formed from negative emotions and energy—the Filthy Spots—have quietly appeared. These Filthy Spots, like malignant tumors, exude a repulsive aura and possess a powerful ability to pollute.

They can not only silently erode the surrounding environment, making it desolate and dilapidated, but also give rise to terrifying monsters formed from negative energy.

As a powerful and influential force on the Douluo Continent, the Spirit Hall keenly sensed the existence of these filthy spots and became the first organization to discover them.

After sending several powerful individuals to investigate, the Spirit Hall was shocked to discover that if these filthy spots were left unchecked, they would continue to expand like wildfire, constantly polluting the surrounding environment, and the negative energy monsters born from them would become increasingly powerful over time.

However, the Spirit Hall also discovered a crucial piece of information: as long as all the negative energy monsters born from the filth point are cleaned up, the filth point will naturally dissipate.

Even more miraculously, the negative energy can be reversed and transformed into vibrant positive energy, and it can also condense into all sorts of coveted treasures.

The Spirit Hall acted decisively, dispatching a Title Douluo to clean up the filthy spot where a Soul Douluo-level monster had been born.

After a fierce battle, the Spirit Hall successfully cleaned up the filth, and the harvest was astonishing—a spirit bone with an age of 50,000 years was found!
This is a top-tier treasure that countless Soul Masters dream of, and its preciousness is self-evident.

Moreover, in addition to this rare soul bone, during the process of cleaning up the filth, soul power crystals that can rapidly enhance soul power cultivation were also found, as well as various uniquely shaped and powerful soul guide weapons and other rare and precious materials.

It can be said that monsters born from filth of different sizes are all unique. Sometimes, monsters that look no different from humans will appear. Even more extreme, powerful figures from the history of Douluo Continent who have long since passed away will appear.

For example, the tainted spot that the Spirit Hall was attacking, where a monster at the level of a Soul Douluo was born, turned out to be a Title Douluo from the history of the Spirit Hall.

Fortunately, the Spirit Hall discovered it in time and successfully killed the monster before it fully grew into a Title Douluo, thus averting a potential catastrophe.

It is worth mentioning that these monsters, formed from negative energy, seem to be restricted by some mysterious force, unable to stray too far from the filth.

Once they exceed a certain range, the energy within them will continuously leak out like sand in an hourglass, eventually dissipating automatically.

However, these automatically disappearing monsters do not drop any treasures.

In just a few months, news of the Filth Point spread like wildfire throughout the entire Douluo Continent.

Everyone now knows this amazing secret: by removing the filth, one can obtain all sorts of incredibly precious treasures.

Among them, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School unexpectedly obtained a powerful level-seven soul tool after cleaning up a filthy spot near their own sect.

After testing, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was pleasantly surprised to find that this soul tool was extremely special. Even support-type soul masters could use it easily and unleash powerful combat strength comparable to that of a Soul Saint in battle.

How could the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School possibly remain calm after learning this news?
It should be noted that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School possesses a large number of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters. While these Soul Masters have exceptional abilities in support roles, their own combat power is almost nonexistent.

If they could possess a large number of these soul tools suitable for support-type soul masters, the overall strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would surely increase exponentially.

With such an enticing prospect, how could they not be driven crazy?

It can be said that in these short few months, the Douluo Continent has been in turmoil, with all major forces taking action and doing their utmost to find the tainted spots, hoping to obtain those tempting treasures by cleaning up the taint.

Without exception, all forces, including the Spirit Hall, the Seven Great Sects, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire, issued numerous bounties, offering hefty sums for information on the tainted points.

Because the appearance of filth spots is completely unpredictable, many lucky people have encountered them by chance.

As long as they are not unlucky enough to be killed on the spot by the negative energy monsters, they can receive a generous reward by reporting the information about the tainted points to the major powers.

In an instant, many ordinary people on the Douluo Continent became rich overnight, and the entire continent was immersed in a complex atmosphere of both fear and anticipation towards the filth.

The reason why people feel fear is because the polluting power of these filthy spots is truly terrifying.

For ordinary people, even getting slightly close to a filthy spot can cause a strong sense of discomfort.

This discomfort is by no means an ordinary physical reaction. Once exposed, one will at least fall seriously ill afterward, and suffer great physical torment.

The negative energy monsters born from the filth are even more terrifying. They are pure malice and will attack and kill any living being that gets close without mercy, showing extreme ferocity and brutality.

However, despite the terrible threat posed by the filth and the negative energy monsters, people still have high hopes.

This is because they also bring many irresistible benefits.
