Infinite Bloodcore

Chapter 474: Section 261: Crossing the River

“Ugh! Ugh!”

Cang Xu gasped with an unprecedented intensity.

His eyes were full of confusion.

“I… I thought I was dead?”

The confusion quickly dissipated as Cang Xu realized something and rapidly checked the spatial bag at his chest.

Inside the bag, he found the death replacement puppet.

It was forcibly purchased by the survivors at the Twin Eyes Island auction.

The death replacement puppet, shaped like a doll made of ghastly green wood, had straw the color of withered yellow as hair. Its eyes and nose were askew, giving off an odd and eerie sense of beauty.

Now, the death replacement puppet had crumbled apart, with limbs detached and its torso shattered. The largest remaining piece was half of its head.

Cang Xu, together with Zi Di, had purchased the death replacement puppet for the Dragon-man youth.

To the survivors, the Dragon-man youth was the most important and critical individual.

But before attending the Undead Gathering, considering the risks of the journey, the Dragon-man youth entrusted the death replacement puppet to Cang Xu.

“It was the death replacement puppet that resurrected me.”

“No, it was the squad leader who saved my life!”

Overwhelmed by intense fear, Cang Xu was once again filled with a warm surge of gratitude.

“Is this water from the Nether River?!” Realizing his situation, he sprang up as if electrified.

Before, just by gazing into the Nether River, he had nearly lost his life. Now, having come into contact with its water, what terrible consequences might occur?

Having suffered once before, Cang Xu was immensely wary of the Nether River. He leapt violently onto the bed, completely distancing himself from the water of the Nether River.

“Eh?” The mysterious figure in black instinctively turned to look in Cang Xu’s direction.

The moment Cang Xu was resurrected, his life breath had leaked out, and the figure in black immediately sensed it.

“He’s actually come back to life?” The figure in black was briefly astounded, then quickly guessed the answer.

“It seems it was that death replacement puppet.” The figure in black was well-informed.
