Chapter 204 Nascent Soul
Chapter 204 Nascent Soul
clap clap clap...
It's the sound of water dripping from high above and hitting the stone slab.
The sound was so clear that it woke the sleeping person.
Tao Tao groggily opened her eyes, but everything around her was still blurry. She quickly rubbed them, and the scene before her gradually became clear.
Where is this?
She looked around carefully and realized that she seemed to be in a cave. It was dark inside and she couldn't see clearly. She tried to use her spiritual power to explore, but found that she couldn't mobilize her spiritual power. It seemed that the power in her body was sealed and she couldn't use it at all.
What happened? Tao Tao was extremely anxious. She tried to recall the time when she fought with the leader of the Green Bee Hall. In the end, she couldn't beat him and was trapped by him, and then she fainted.
Could this be the Green Bee Hall?
Tao Tao quickly stood up, but found that he was very weak and could only barely stand by leaning against the stone wall.
No matter where she was, she had to leave. The longer she stayed, the more dangerous it would become. As it turned out, she was no match for the old man at all. Escaping from him was a struggle, let alone having the strength to fight back.
The problem is that the cave is so dark that there is no way out and no idea where to go. She can't use her divine sense now, so it's like she's in complete darkness. The key is that she has nothing on her body, and she doesn't even know where her storage bracelet is.
Oh no, could it be that the old man took it away? Wouldn't that put Bai Yan in danger?
The thought of Bai Yan made Tao Tao anxious and impatient. She wished she could go find the old man immediately and take him back even if it cost her her life.
"Little girl, don't be in such a hurry. You're already on my turf, and you're still not behaving yourself. Do you want me to break your legs so you can't walk?"
Upon hearing the voice, Tao Tao immediately became alert. It was an old man, and he was indeed nearby. The problem was that she had no spiritual power at the moment. How could she get her things back?
Tao Tao didn't speak, but looked coldly in the direction from which the sound came. She bit her lip and tried her best to mobilize her spiritual power, but unfortunately, she still couldn't do it.
"Don't waste your time. Your spiritual power has been sealed by me. Forcibly breaking the seal will only make you die a terrible death."
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired old man flashed in front of Tao Tao, grabbed Tao Tao's shoulder, and pulled him up with force, making Tao Tao fly forward.
Not knowing where he was taking her, Tao Tao felt inexplicably worried. But since he hadn't killed her yet, it meant he didn't want her dead for the time being. So Tao Tao tentatively asked, "What do you want with me here?"
“I am very interested in the power within your body. I will not let you die until I have figured it out. However, you injured my primordial spirit before, causing my cultivation to decline. You must pay the price for this.”
The old man let out a chilling laugh, sending shivers down Tao Tao's spine. She didn't know what situation she would face. She couldn't help but swallow hard, her mind racing as she tried to talk to the old man. Unfortunately, the old man didn't give her the chance and simply threw her down.
Tao Tao's body plummeted down. Without spiritual power to protect her and unable to summon any magical artifacts, Tao Tao could only crash hard onto the solid ground, making her head spin. As she rubbed her head and sat up, she heard something wriggling around her.
The sound was extremely eerie, coming in waves, sometimes like wriggling, sometimes like breathing. The sound went straight into the mind, sending chills down one's spine.
What is this place?
Compared to where she had just woken up, this place was much brighter. Looking around, she saw white threads spreading out from the cave in the distance. These threads were dense and everywhere, some even reaching her feet. She stepped on one of them; it was sticky and gooey, a bit like a spider web, but not quite.
For some reason, Tao Tao felt a strong sense of crisis when she saw this thing. She subconsciously got up and took a few steps back, trying to keep her distance from it.
But at that moment, breathing sounds came from deep within the cave, and as the sound grew closer, the white silk threads trembled along with it.
Sensing something was wrong, Tao Tao turned and ran, but the white silk threads suddenly shot towards her at great speed. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't escape. Her hands and feet were instantly entangled by the white silk threads, which forcefully pulled her back.
What exactly is this thing?
Tao Tao tugged hard and found that the thread could be stretched out, was very elastic, and was also sticky. Once it stuck to his body, he couldn't pull it off.
The problem is that she doesn't have the strength to break free yet, and can only be forcefully dragged into the dark cave.
The moment she was pulled into the cave, it suddenly lit up, emitting a faint blue glow everywhere, with faint spots of light floating in the air.
To be honest, this place is quite beautiful, especially the huge blue lotus growing in the very center of the cave. The lotus petals are translucent, and you can clearly see a snow-white baby lying in the middle of the lotus, with its eyes closed as if it were asleep.
It was actually a Nascent Soul that had broken free of the body?
Tao Tao was extremely shocked. This was the first time she had ever seen a Nascent Soul. She could feel the power contained within the infant even from such a distance. The key question was, why was the Nascent Soul placed here? It was extremely dangerous for the Nascent Soul to be separated from the body. If it were captured by a powerful enemy, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just as Tao Tao was surprised, the sleeping baby suddenly opened its eyes. A pair of light blue eyes slowly swept over Tao Tao. Instantly, Tao Tao felt a cold chill enter its body, and its whole body froze on the spot, unable to move.
The baby slowly sat up, beckoned to Tao Tao, and the white silk thread suddenly became active, pulling her directly in front of the baby.
"This is what he meant by nutrients? Tsk, too skinny, not even enough to fill my teeth." The porcelain-like figure in front of him suddenly opened his mouth and said this in a childish voice, making Tao Tao's eyes widen. "You're going to eat me?"
She must have swallowed countless demonic beasts along the way, never imagining that one day she would become someone else's food. It's truly a matter of fate.
"Yeah, are you scared?" The baby let out a cold laugh, suddenly took to the air, floated down in front of Tao Tao, stretched out its chubby little hand and pinched Tao Tao's chin, looked him up and down, then rubbed his chin thoughtfully and said, "How strange, little guy, there's a force in your body that makes me very uncomfortable, what is it?"
"What? I don't know! Let me go! If I don't taste good, then don't eat me!" Tao Tao protested, trying to reason with the baby in front of her and see if she could bargain for him to let her go. However, the baby didn't buy it at all. Not only did the baby not let go, but it also stuck out a finger and touched Tao Tao's forehead.
Suddenly, a chilling spiritual energy rushed into Tao Tao's mind, making her tremble all over.
"Let me see what's inside your body?"
