"This spider venom is quite potent!"

Zhang Xuezhou had anticipated that Badun would come seeking help, and even considered that the other party was urging him to set off immediately, but he did not expect that Badun had been poisoned.

At this point, Badun's body was reacting slowly, and he had lost nearly half of his strength.

Ever since becoming acquainted with Badun, Zhang Xuezhou had never seen the other man in good spirits.

Of course, Zhang Xuezhou had to admit that he didn't know anything about Badun before, and was unaware that the other party was not in good condition.

There is no doubt that Badun will be relatively weak for some time.

"I want to lie down in the Sinkhole No. 2, but I'm a bit too weak; I'm afraid I'll be twisted and crushed!"

The hanging bottles and jars weren't very useful; they contained nutrient solutions. Badun relied more on his body's self-healing abilities to resist the spider venom.

By the time a potent antitoxin is produced, Badun's body will likely be nearly healed.

He quite missed the environment of the sinkhole world.

"The environment in Dongshan isn't bad either," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"No, no, no!" Badun shook his head repeatedly, "No matter how well you set up your place, it can't withstand so many people using it. That Qin Meng Secret Stone is almost used up!"

What a pity!

Zhang Xuezhou sighed.

The Qin Meng Secret Stone obtained from the Snake Cave enabled Ren Anran to break through to the Divine Ability Realm, helped the Yang Soul take shape, and involved many people in cultivating Realm Technique. It also promoted Mental Strengthening and trained the fighting techniques of the Gene Sequence. Furthermore, it allowed the seriously ill Badun to enter the cave and helped him step into the Ninth Sequence.

To be honest, the effect of this Qin Meng Secret Stone has exceeded expectations.

With the improved Tiankeng microcosm, Zhang Xuezhou no longer had any particular interest in the Qin Meng Secret Stone, nor did he pay much attention to the arrangement of Dongshan.

"Would you be interested in taking a look over there? The Qin Meng Secret Stone in that cave is huge; bringing back a piece would be incredibly useful," Badun said.

"You know I don't need it!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to the direction of the distortion, and Badun couldn't help but sigh.

Showing off your farmland in front of the landlord makes it very difficult to get the landlord to help you for free.

Without sufficient incentives, Badun would have had a hard time persuading Zhang Xuezhou and others.

The most critical issue is that the high- Sequence Holder of the Scarlet Alliance State are extremely wary of Badun, and very few would accept his invitation to join a suicide Badun.

Arthur and Clark's serious injuries served as a warning, reminding everyone that even those who greedily sought to gain advantages should consider whether they were capable enough.

The root of the problem indeed lies with Zhang Xuezhou, as he is currently the only one in the Zhang Xuezhou Scarlet Alliance State capable of contacting many people for cooperation.

The precedent of orchestrating numerous Sequence Holder to fight in the Sinkhole No. 2 is a case in point. Badun, who had been with the group for a long time, noticed that even when they were in a near-desperate situation, no one blamed Zhang Xuezhou.

Compared to Ren Yisheng and Li Yingbo, Zhang Xuezhou held a very special position in the Scarlet Alliance State.

This special status was not due to the influence of the highest order or power, but rather to a kind of leader. Many Sequence Holder who had received favors were willing to contribute their time and effort, and few people doubted Zhang Xuezhou.

As long as Zhang Xuezhou can ensure that many people benefit and move upwards, they will not feel that they have repaid their debts of gratitude, but will continue to cooperate with him.

Given that Badun wanted to leverage Zhang Xuezhou's influence, he would indeed have to offer substantial benefits; it would be difficult to persuade Zhang Xuezhou to invite others to help without any effort on his part.

"If you're not interested in the Qin Meng Secret Stone, I think you should be interested in the treasures of the Fire Meteor Creature," Badun said again.

"No interest," Zhang Xuezhou shook his head repeatedly. "I don't have the Ninth Sequence, nor have I ever cultivated the nurturing method. I can't use the good treasures, and I can't use the bad ones!"

"You can practice it; the cultivation method is quite easy to learn," Badun advised.

"Did you use Dingkui this time?" Zhang Xuezhou suddenly asked.

"That treasure requires the tiger clan's bloodline to activate it, so I can't use it... But if I did, Ding Kui's protective power would be very strong; even without active activation, it would still be quite effective!"

After offering an explanation, Badun finally admitted it.

He's not stupid. If he couldn't gamble on a future, he wouldn't have taken the top spot on Zhang Xuezhou's small boat back then, and he wouldn't have gone through all that trouble, becoming paralyzed and almost dying.

As it turns out, Badun won his gamble.

He is currently able to maintain the Dingkui stance without suffering any backlash, but he cannot actively use the Dingkui stance.

Although it cannot exert a powerful domain effect, Dingkui can still exert an irreplaceable influence if used properly.

His ability to lead the heavily injured Arthur and the others to safety this time was indeed inseparable from Ding Kui's role.

"Did Dingkui lose it over there?" Zhang Xuezhou asked curiously.

"If I leave it there, it'll harm the spiders. Even if I don't, it won't escape!"

Badun looked helpless and nodded in agreement with Zhang Xuezhou's guess.

With their strength at that level, and their physical injuries being seen, many things can be judged simply by guessing.

After repeated preparations and the use of potions to induce the birth of two more Seventh Sequence individuals, Badun's adventure was a complete disaster, and even the newly Lineage Seventh Sequence could not be saved.

He not only failed to quell the spider infestation, but also lost manpower.

Of course, he also gained some insights, at least clarifying the relevant details further.

For example, the Qinmeng Secret Stone existing in the cave, or the treasures of the fire meteor creature.

Badun even figured out why the gods were continuously pouring divine power into him.

"You mean that fire meteor creature might be a traitor to its clan, or a second-generation god who brought a treasure no less powerful than Ding Kui into Qin Meng, and whose death triggered the gods' attempt to reclaim the treasure?"

Badun continued to explain, and the situation he described surprised Zhang Xuezhou somewhat.

Zhang Xuezhou had known for a long time that the strength of higher-dimensional beings relied more on treasures. These deities had a natural concept of using treasures, just as humans believed that using tools was what made them Homo sapiens, while relying solely on physical cultivation was like that of an unevolved monkey.

Based on this understanding, all sorts of powerful treasures emerge endlessly.

Having experienced the power of the Spirit Wood Staff, Zhang Xuezhou had to admit that having such a treasure was truly beneficial, and Zhang Xuezhou was not opposed to utilizing its power.

"Can you believe that the injuries on my body were caused by simply touching that treasure?" Badun raised his bluish-black right hand and said, "I'm not afraid of the treasure being taken back; I'm afraid that this kind of treasure will break after being constantly infused with divine power and stretched, or that it will be used by other spiders to achieve racial evolution. If that happens, the risks we face in the future will be immeasurable!"

A tiny, transparent spider can be crushed by an ordinary person's finger. If such a spider carries a deadly toxin, everyone will be afraid to approach it, not even those Sequence Holder. And the source spider is even less likely to solve the problem.

Badun could hardly imagine the consequences.

He clearly disliked these spider-like creatures encroaching on the world's living space, and even less did he want the Aomeijia Alliance to become a region overrun by poisonous spiders.
