God of Pets-Chapter 448: Nether

Fujimura Reiko went to the gambling game of the Eight Kings, hoping to restore her face.

Unfortunately, she lost and didn’t achieve her wish.

Later, the Eight Kings told her that the poison she used was called "Bone-Eroding Grass," which had an incredibly strange and unique toxicity. Even if she had won, and the Eight Kings helped her restore her appearance, it couldn’t completely eradicate the toxicity of the Bone-Eroding Grass, and over time she would gradually revert to this state.

Since then, Fujimura Reiko had given up and stayed with the Eight Kings.

She didn’t believe Chen Guan could cure the poison of the Bone-Eroding Grass, but she still held onto that glimmer of hope.

If Chen Guan could truly cure her face, even if he wanted her to do something against her will, she could accept it now.

Moreover, besides facing societal setbacks that had worn down her edges, the main reason was that, in her eyes, Chen Guan’s figure and appearance made it hard for her to dislike him.

That masculine physique, paired with a chiseled face, even without the detoxification issue, Fujimura Reiko felt she could actually accept it.

But just now, her face might not be acceptable to others.

Chen Guan thought for a moment and said, "I can’t guarantee that I can definitely cure your face; I can only try."

With that, Chen Guan summoned Mao Mao.

Seeing the brightly colored, large caterpillar, Fujimura Reiko didn’t have much reaction.

Before the Secret Spirit era, many women might have feared caterpillars, but people like Fujimura Reiko, who were accustomed to various Secret Spirits, wouldn’t fear a mere caterpillar.

"My pet has the ability to absorb poison. I’ll have it extract the poison from your face. As long as the toxicity can be removed, the wounds aren’t really the problem," Chen Guan said.

Fujimura Reiko nodded, indicating she was willing to cooperate.

Even knowing the chance of completely removing the toxicity was small, she was willing to try. Even if it was just a temporary restoration, she was willing.

Chen Guan had Fujimura Reiko lie down, then ordered Mao Mao to suck the toxins from her face.

The more than one-meter-long big caterpillar crawled to Fujimura Reiko’s face, leaving a scorched black trail on the ground due to its toxic secretion.

The caterpillar crawled on Fujimura Reiko’s face, and immediately there was a sizzle, resembling the sound of red-hot charcoal entering water.

Mao Mao’s own toxicity burned Fujimura Reiko’s face.

Fujimura Reiko endured painfully without a sound, allowing Mao Mao to crawl on her face and suck out the toxins.

The toxins on Fujimura Reiko’s face were more potent than Chen Guan had imagined; Mao Mao took quite a while and still hadn’t finished.

When it sucked the toxins from the poison frog earlier, it wasn’t this difficult.

Chen Guan wasn’t quite accustomed to this scene, so he stepped out of the cabin and went to the deck, admiring the scenery of the Nether Sea.

The Nether Sea was vast and boundless, but on the sea, there were no ordinary Secret Spirits, only Nether and Underworld.

Chen Guan had seen Nether before, but on this journey he hadn’t seen Underworld.

Nether was a special Secret Spirit without a physical form, while Underworld was also a special Secret Spirit, but Underworld had a body.

Actually, Underworld was also a Nether, but a Nether with a body.

Nether invades a living being’s body and takes it over. After many Nethe entities combine into a new consciousness within the living being, the body gradually transforms into Underworld, creating the Underworld.

The consciousness of Underworld is the collective consciousness of Nether and can be considered a type of living dead.

Underworld’s abilities are generally stronger than Nether, as Nether can only invade bodies, while Underworld has more combat abilities and has immortality-like abilities after transforming.

Underworld Secret Spirits come in many forms, depending on what kind of body is occupied.

The scenery of the Nether Sea was overly monotonous; Chen Guan got tired of it after watching for a while.

Not only the Nether Sea, even a normal sea isn’t very interesting after a while.

The fun of the sea is beneath the waves, not in the scenery on the surface.

Chen Guan stood at the ship’s bow, glanced down, and his hairs stood on end.

He saw pale faces plastered against the wooden boards of the Spirit King Ship, with skeletal remains seemingly flickering in the sea.

Surprisingly, the surroundings of the Spirit King Ship were filled with skeletons and dead bodies.

These skeletal remains and dead bodies came from various Secret Spirits, and now they were all facing up, stuck to the side of the ship, their bodies bobbing in the water like floating corpses.

"These are Underworlds..." Chen Guan realized the Underworld wasn’t absent; it had been here all along, he just hadn’t seen it.

Chen Guan observed for a while and actually saw one with a human-like appearance.

But Chen Guan didn’t think it was truly human; it might have been a Secret Spirit that looked human prior to dying.

He judged this because the Underworld appeared as a seven or eight-year-old girl wearing gothic dark clothing.

Humans of that age can’t enter the Secret Realm, naturally they can’t become Underworld.

Chen Guan scrutinized the pale-faced Underworld girl, bobbing in the sea, and suddenly, the girl opened her eyes, its deep purple gaze fixed on Chen Guan, a wicked smile on its face.

Chen Guan was unfazed, meeting the gaze of the girl.

He had seen far too many terrifying things; a mere Underworld couldn’t scare him, especially since he had the Great Emperor’s Round Stool and Paperman; these Underworlds couldn’t do anything to him. Otherwise, they would have attacked instead of clinging to the side of the ship, so what was there to fear?

After staring at each other for a while, the Underworld girl’s face slowly sank into the sea and then disappeared.

"I wonder if killing these Underworlds will petify them..." Chen Guan pondered, though he didn’t dare try.

The Nether Sea was so vast, he wasn’t sure if he could escape using Pure Yang Sword Immortal. If he couldn’t escape, angering these Underworlds would be problematic.

He decided to patiently reach the Pingdu Mountain Secret Realm first. When he returned to the cabin, he saw Mao Mao had already come off Fujimura Reiko’s face.

Fujimura Reiko’s entire face had turned scorched black, and she was enduring the pain while applying medicine.

Mao Mao’s body stood up, emitting strands of light gradually wrapping around its body.

"Is it undergoing Second Awakening?" Chen Guan was somewhat surprised, not expecting such an unexpected delight.

Soon, those strands of light completely enveloped Mao Mao’s body, resembling a giant cocoon.

"How does it feel?" Seeing that Mao Mao wouldn’t complete its awakening anytime soon, Chen Guan walked over to Fujimura Reiko and studied her face, asking.

Her face was originally covered with centipede-like scars, but now had turned entirely scorched black. After applying medicine, the scorched area became dry, some parts were already cracking, with the edges slightly lifting.

"It feels... a bit itchy..." Fujimura Reiko felt countless ants crawling on her face, wanting to scratch but fearing she’d ruin something, so she held back, her body trembling.

"Bear with it, it should have an effect." Chen Guan said.

Fujimura Reiko nodded, sat there without speaking, fearing if she opened her mouth she couldn’t resist the urge to groan, her face was unbearably itchy, penetratingly itchy.

Fujimura Reiko’s knuckles turned white from grasping tightly, yet she didn’t dare reach out to scratch it.
