Chapter 566: Chapter 327: Memory and the Supreme Demon

Not long ago.

In the deepest part of the Slumbering Land, Chen Sheng once tried to use Xiao Hei to absorb Zhurong’s soul.

However, he was not successful.

According to Xiao Hei’s description,

On the other end of Zhurong’s soul, there seemed to be connected to an immovable existence.

No matter how hard he tried to tug, it was difficult to move even a hair’s breadth.

Only after Xiao Hei made several attempts and mustered all his strength,

Did he manage to tear off a little bit from the edge of Zhurong’s soul.

It was this tiny bit of residual soul,

That not only increased Chen Sheng’s spiritual power by a few points when converted,

But also allowed Chen Sheng to enter Zhurong’s memories directly from the first-person perspective.

—-

Warmth.

Coldness.

Humidity.

Anxiety.

In the instant when Chen Sheng entered Zhurong’s memory,

Before the darkness in his vision faded away,

Various negative emotions had already rushed in, filling his mind in an instant.

Whoosh—

The first to recover was his hearing.

As the bone-chilling wind swept across his body, Chen Sheng felt bursts of pain, making the feeling of weakness even stronger.

Coldness enveloped most of his body.

Only the palms of his hands and the surface of his feet felt a faint warmth.

After that,

The tide-like darkness faded away.

The flickering firelight was the first thing that caught his eye.

The crackling sound of dry firewood came from his ears.

A pair of hands, covered with old calluses and intertwined with new and old scars, stood upright in front of the fire.

Leaping flames filled Chen Sheng’s vision.

It seemed that at this moment, his eyes could only accommodate the warmth-bringing flames.

The palm of his hand was very close to the fire.

Just a little further, and it would touch the scorching flames.

But still,

Despite this distance,

The coldness filling his body remained as unshakable as maggots gnawing at his bones.

“Father, I’m so cold.”

At this moment,

A young voice reached his ears.

The voice’s owner sounded very young and spoke a language Chen Sheng did not understand.

But strangely enough,

Chen Sheng was able to clearly understand the other party’s meaning.

“Come.”

Chen Sheng realized it was “he” who spoke.

His gaze moved away from the fire.

Only then did he get a clear look at his surroundings.

It seemed to be a cave.

Various weirdly-shaped stalactites hung from the ceiling.

On all sides were damp, rough rock walls.

The dense dripping sound echoed through the cave.

It was the sound of water droplets dripping from the stone tips onto the ground.

Next,

A tender face entered his field of vision.

On the dusty little face, only a pair of bright eyes shone.

The boy squatted on the ground, his hands tightly hugging his body.

Apart from the animal skin he was wearing, he was wrapped in an even larger one.

Seeing this scene,

Chen Sheng had a rough guess as to why he felt so “cold” at this moment.

Based on the surroundings,
