Chapter 3312 Black Pool

A white cocoon of light floated in the darkness of the tomb.

This cocoon wrapped around Elvinia.

Every a few seconds, the cocoon could be seen beating with the naked eye.

Dong! Dong!

The movement of the cocoon caused tremors to pass through the dark cave.

The blood vessels and the flesh on the wall and the ground bulged as if they were sentient living beings, and gathered around the cocoon.

Dong! Dong!

The cocoon had beaten over a hundred times before some of the blood vessels attached themselves to it, the flesh following close behind. The entire process was long and slow, but they continued to gradually gather together into a shape.

Zen didn't know that such a strange change was taking place in the dark cave.

He waited for a few hours before he began to feel that the light was dimming. The pig-faced monsters that had been near him had gradually fallen into the darkness. The effect of the Darkness Fruit was about to disappear.

"Are you going to use me as bait?" Zen asked the pig-faced monster that was guarding him.

"Right," the pig-faced monster snickered.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappear from the Dark Region before that because the Darkness Fruit is about to lose effect," Zen said.

The pig-faced monster looked surprised.

They had forgotten that Zen was not from the Dark Region. When the effect of the Darkness Fruit wore off, the Dark Region would erase his body.

The pig-faced monster reported this to its superiors. Soon, several pig-faced monsters had left the valley.

Zen felt it getting darker and darker, the voices of the pig-faced monsters becoming fainter by the minute. He felt pain as the Dark Region continued to corrode him.

Fortunately, there were a number of Darkness Fruits in the Dark Region. About an hour later, the pig-faced monsters returned and shoved a Darkness Fruit into Zen's mouth.

As the power of the

into the depths of the pool.

He could see nothing in the black quagmire, and could do nothing but let himself sink.

Minutes later, Zen felt something tug at his back. The rope had tightened and was stopping Zen from sinking even further. He was alone in the black pool, hanging onto the rope and his luck.

Plop! Plop!

Bubbles began to float. Zen frowned, sensing that something was coming his way.

As more bubbles began to appear, he felt a stabbing pain in his feet, as if something was stuck to them. He struggled to escape it but his body was being held down by the bronze iron plates. Thanks to the absence of enough space, he couldn't get rid of it.

The more he struggled, the more things he attracted to himself. It was not long before these things spread out all over his body.

"What the hell?"

Zen couldn't see anything. All he could do was grit his teeth and endure the pain. He finally understood what the pig-faced monster had meant.

The monster had been right when it had said that being put in the black pool and sucked at by these unknown objects was worse than dying.

Dorothy and the others were witnessing something horrifying happen to Zen. Countless tiny holes appeared on Zen's body, ringed with black traces of erosion.
