The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor

It was a specialised spirit crane used by the Ji Mo Clan for urgent matters.

Sage Cai was startled for a moment and quickly opened the message. It was from Ji Mo Ya!

'Ancestral Uncle, the Demon God Estate has resurfaced…'

A sharp glint flashed through Sage Cai's eyes, the Demon God Estate has resurfaced?

The Demon God Estate has appeared during the great war between the two races!

Sage Cai had an uneasy feeling, as though something big was about to happen.

Moreover, it would not be advantageous to humans…

Sage Cai continued reading the rest of the message. After wiping off the first sentence with spirit energy, he handed the letter to Little Treasure before closing his eyes to perform a divination.

Little Treasure happily received the spirit crane and started reading the words one at a time.

"… Little Treasure, Mother and Father are now fighting for humanity together. Mother misses you very much. My dear Little Treasure, make sure to eat your meals properly and focus on your training. Listen to Ancestral Grandpa and wait for Mother to return~ Kiss!"

After reading the spirit crane, Little Treasure felt exceptionally satisfied.

The group finally left the First Underground Palace and were standing in front of the Second Underground Palace.

Compared to the First Underground Palace, the Second Underground Palace was filled with vibrant life as all sorts of plants were growing…

The grew on the ground, on the walls, and even on the ceilings.

Huan Qing Yan's dimension was currently constantly releasing notifications.

"Ding. Discover Blue Luster Grass, Rare Spirit Plant. Toxic…"

"Ding. Discover Penta-Coloured Flower, Rare Spirit Plant. Toxic…"

"Ding. Discover Poisonous Orchis Root, Unknown Spirit Plant. Toxic…"

Huan Qing Yan sweated. The dimension had released a few dozen notifications and none of them were not about poison. This place was likely a palace of poisonous plants!

……

Everyone exclaimed in shock at the discovery, "Woah, this Second Underground Palace is basically a Spirit Plant heaven. There are so many Rare Spirit Plants, Spirit Flowers, Spirit Fruit…"

Tuoba Yan was currently in Shota Form. His would change irregularly without a pattern between his Uncle and Shota form.

He curiously plucked a red fruit from a nearby shrub and was about to eat it when Ji Mo Ya knocked it off his hands with a bullet of spirit energy.

Shota Tuoba Yan unhappily said, "Elder Brother Young Master Ya, what are you doing!"

Ji Mo Ya calmly replied, "The plants in the Second Underground Palace are all poisonous."

"Ah! Serious?" Min Xie Ran found it hard to believe.

The words had just left his mouth when Tuoba Yan screamed, "So painful, my hand is swelling!"

Everyone looked at his hand, it was the one that he had used to hold the red fruit earlier. It was starting to swell at a visible rate.

Looking like a steamed bun now!

"It is indeed poisonous. Simply touching it resulted in such a reaction, what would happen if it was ingested?"

Just thinking about it made everyone shudder.

Shang Qiu Meng Qian took out a vial of anti-poison and applied it on Tuoba Yan, "Tuoba Yan, this is my Shang Qiu Clan's special anti-poison. Remember to note it down and pay me back when you transform. Each bottle costs ten thousand spirit stones."

"Elder Brother, you are such a miser!"

"Do not use this immature tone to speak with me. We can discuss when you transform back later. Thank you!"

After the incident, no one dared to touch any of those alluring fruits anymore.

They proceed onward.

Everyone was on high alert.

There were traps despite the utterly miserable state of the First Underground Palace. While the Second Underground Palace was covered in grass, likely due to lack of maintenance. Heaven knows what could be awaiting them here.

The ground was covered by various strange and precious looking plants, there was no space for them to step on.

"The grass is also poisonous. My legs have turned numb, I am unable to move." Min Xie Ran said.
