————————

[Yaksha King’s Arm Hide] is obviously designed for the main tank, but it’s a piece of equipment that can’t be used many times. Gu Xi just glanced at it and handed it over to Death Incarnation - Death God to handle.

Anyway, after Death Incarnation uses it, it disperses, so there’s no need to worry about the negative effects of [Yaksha King’s Arm Hide].

On the contrary, the two special effects are most suitable for use in battle; one increases power or agility when health decreases, and the other refills health directly when it drops significantly.

For Death Incarnation - Death God, whose combat power is inherently inferior to Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon, this is a significant enhancement.

As for the Yaksha Curse, it’s even better, adding a Yaksha trait every few minutes.

Though it’s unclear which types are available.

But judging from Gu Xi’s previous combat experiences, the Yaksha qualities and combat styles coming from the Earth Demon Cave are quite decent.

This can definitely enhance the combat power of Death Incarnation - Death God.

With such gains, Gu Xi has deeper expectations regarding the underground situation of the Earth Demon Cave.

After all, it’s a primary instinct for every major boss to hide the good stuff around themselves.

Together with Mido, Isabella, and a few core subordinates, they bypassed the empty eggshells and headed towards the spot where the Yaksha Mother was initially located.

From here, Gu Xi could see the traces of the Yaksha Mother climbing upward, as well as the usual way the Yakshas delivered food.

On this ceiling, besides the large hole dug by the Yaksha Mother allowing city lake water to flood in, many small holes were visible.

Yakshas would only need to throw flesh and corpses into the small holes, providing sufficient blood supply to the Yaksha Mother below.

The newly born Yakshas would grow here to a certain size, and then...

No, Gu Xi suddenly realized a problem.

There are so many Yaksha Eggs here, looking like a hatchery, but there are no signs of newly born Yakshas.

That is to say, the Yaksha Eggs here have never hatched.

This situation immediately overturned Gu Xi’s previous assumption.

When they descended, they thought the Yaksha Mother attacked in rage because the Mind Kill had cut off the Yaksha race’s lineage.

Now it seems not to be the case; there are other secrets here.

Thinking of this, Gu Xi extended his hand, and the Main City Gate appeared right behind him.

Then the Ghost Dragon and Bone Titan, along with Gu Xi’s Personal Guards, quickly stood at attention.

Next, the Ghost Squad surged out from the Main City Gate.

”Find out, I want to know what happened here.”

Waving his hand at the Ghost Squad, Gu Xi decisively commanded.

The Ghost Squad’s ghosts swiftly spread out in action, allowing Gu Xi to realize how many Yaksha Eggs there were this time in the Earth Demon Cave.

Each part of the Ghost Squad carrying three broken Yaksha Eggs would need at least seven or eight rounds to clean up all the Yaksha Egg fragments here.

Gu Xi, after examining these eggshells and the half-hatched, deceased Yaksha embryos, found that all these things were of gray quality.

[Broken Eggshell (Gray): A shattered Yaksha Eggshell full of nutrients, can be made into food, and is a favored food of the Dragon Type.]

[Fuzzy Yaksha Egg (Gray): An unborn Yaksha, but already possesses intellect and vitality; considered a life form, and can also serve as food, favored by Dragon Type.]

Looking at this information, Gu Xi even made a snide comment.

Fought so long, is this just to add a treat for the Dragon Race?

However, ultimately Gu Xi did not stop the Ghost Squad from moving these eggshell and fuzzy Yaksha Eggs, as new clues couldn’t be discovered without clearing this place.

Quickly, under the handling of the Ghost Squad, the lake water flooded inside this cave was also redirected, revealing a dry ground.

Regarding the emptied ground, Gu Xi had no particular thoughts, but was amazed at the Ghost Squad’s method of emptying this place.

Initially, Gu Xi assumed the Ghost Squad would just drain the water away.

He never imagined the Ghost Squad would guide the water into the Main City Gate, pouring it into the Evil Wood Lake in the Magic Plant District.

Seeing such a large project done by the Ghost Squad in such a short time, Gu Xi wanted to ask, ”Was it necessary?”

But after the Ghost Squad drained all the water, Gu Xi couldn’t help but comment.

”So fragrant!”

Gu Xi could clearly feel that this lake water carried a trace of life force, which when poured into Evil Wood Lake, could improve the overall water quality of the Evil Wood Lake region.

Most importantly, the trace of life in the water has a certain use for the entire Magic Plant District.

It’s unknown how the Ghost Squad discovered this situation.

If Gu Xi were to transport things, this lake water would be the first to be ruled out.

After the lake water was cleared away, the Ghost Squad quickly found something different.

They discovered what seemed to be embedded in the cave floor: a gigantic corpse.

The corpse stretched nearly two hundred meters in length, with its waist positioned right in the cave’s center, exactly where Gu Xi had determined the Yaksha Mother was.

On discovering this, Gu Xi, with the Ghost Dragon’s help, flew to a higher position for a better view.

Afterward, Gu Xi made a judgment that the corpse lying in the middle of this cave might indeed be the potential Yaksha King, with a level of 19.

Oh, the strength assessment comes from Eldest Princess Anna; she’s seen the aftermath of a level 20 powerhouse’s death.

According to Eldest Princess Anna, once the level 20 Domain Aura is triggered, even after death, the aura persists, though in a different form.

Though this giant corpse doesn’t show signs of an aura, he should be at level 19, just a step away from reaching the level of 20.

For this reason, Gu Xi was intrigued and ordered the Ghost Squad to excavate the body and planned to transport it back to Yalidov City.

Upon digging, the Ghost Squad discovered something amiss.

Underneath the corpse was a thick layer of red crystals, seemingly coagulated blood, imbued with a strong life force.

Particularly at the Yaksha King’s waist, heart, and brain, those crystal blocks were immensely large.

Alarmingly, these life force-laden crystals were highly damaging to the Undead, rendering both Ghost Squad and other Undead incapable of moving them.

As Gu Xi contemplated how to transport everything back to Yalidov City, Eldest Princess Anna suddenly spoke.

”Sir, have you noticed anything unusual about this cave?”
