Name: Unknown Soil
Effect: One of the materials used to form the Dark Stone
Aoki looked at the black soil in his hand in shock. It was soft to the touch and was not much different from ordinary yellow soil. It was just a little moist.
But this soil was actually one of the materials used to form the Dark Stone?
How much of this soil was there in the space under the stone pillar?
Was the soil originally like this, or did it mutate because of the rich ghostly energy's corrosion over a long period of time?
Compared to the soil being like this from the beginning, Aoki was more inclined to believe that the soil became like this after being soaked in ghostly energy for a long period of time.
That would explain why Old Ghost and the others were able to find the Dark Stone in this Ghost Cave.
He clenched his hand tightly and the soil in his hand quickly stuck together.
"If I squeeze this soil tightly and place it on the stone pillar's opening, will it turn into a Dark Stone after a while?" Aoki asked curiously.
He felt that this was not impossible, but he did not know how long it would take.
"The walls of the cave are all covered in this soil. There must be some Dark Stone that has already been condensed, right?"
Thinking of this, Aoki was slightly excited. How much Dark Stone was there?
Did he strike it rich?!
If it wasn't for the fact that the dazed beast needed to recover its energy, Aoki would probably have rushed down immediately.
Forcefully suppressing the excitement in his heart, the dazed beast was still recovering. Aoki looked at Ghost Stone who was absorbing the energy.
He saw that Ghost Stone, who was already a little big, was now even bigger.
Aoki slowly frowned. Sometimes, having more energy was not necessarily a good thing.
How did the Geng Gui absorb the energy back then?
And it did not seem to have much effect.
"Ghost Stone, control your absorption speed and try to compress the energy as much as possible. With your current state, other than increasing your body size, there is no other use." Aoki said to Ghost Stone.
Hearing Aoki's words, Ghost Stone immediately opened his eyes and looked at his current appearance. His body had really become a lot bigger.
Previously, he was completely immersed in the joy of the energy in his body and did not notice the changes in himself.
After being reminded by Aoki, Gui Si no longer deliberately absorbed energy. Instead, he tried his best to compress the energy in his body.
In the beginning, compression was not that easy.
He slowly compressed the ghostly energy in his body, as if he was trying to compress gas into liquid.
It was just that with his current strength, he was still unable to compress the energy into liquid form. However, he could reduce the gaps between the gases.
Gradually, the speed at which Ghoststone's body was growing began to slow down. After another half an hour, its body had stabilized at a certain level. Even if more energy entered it, it would not grow any bigger.
After another half an hour, Ghost Stone's body began to shrink at a very slow rate.
The energy in his body had been gradually compressed by him. Even if he absorbed more energy now, it would not cause any changes to his body shape.
Aoki had been watching Ghost Stone's changes. He found that his body, which was originally a little blurry due to the increase in size, had become solid again. It even had a faint feeling that it was beginning to transform into a physical object.
"If I can maintain this speed of change, in a few months, Ghost Stone will evolve into a Geng Gui." Aoki thought to himself as he looked at Ghost Stone's changes.
That's right, now Ghost Stone's body was slowly becoming solid. There was indeed a trace of Geng Gui change.
However, at the current speed, it would take at least a few months of continuous absorption and compression.
After waiting for an hour, Dazed Beast opened its eyes and woke up from its meditation.
"How is it, Dazed Beast? Have you almost recovered?" Seeing Dazed Beast wake up, Aoki asked.
"Ya Dong!"
"In that case, let's go down and take a look. This time, let's directly teleport to the wall."
Previously, it was the first time he teleported to the bottom, so he could only determine the approximate area. However, this time, he knew the situation below and could directly teleport to the wall.
With a flash of his superpower, Aoki and Dazed Beast disappeared from the stone pillar.
Ghost Stone was busy compressing the energy in his body and watched them leave.
Appearing next to the wall again, Aoki did not explore the side this time. Instead, he took out a military shovel from his ring and directly dug at the wall.
A pile of black soil slowly accumulated by his feet. However, after digging five centimeters deep, the soil wall began to harden. Aoki also had difficulty digging.
Sometimes, he could only dig out some small stones with a shovel.
Aoki was not angry or impatient about this. Instead, he showed a happy expression.
"Sure enough, some of the soil has already solidified. The hard soil below is already solidifying into stone. If I keep digging, I should be able to reach Dark Stone!" Greenwood thought to himself.
However, as the wall became harder and harder, the sound of the shovel getting louder and louder.
Towards the end, it was like shoveling on a stone.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound came from the mouth of the shovel, and Aoki was overjoyed.
I hit a stone!
I hope it's a Dark Stone!
He swung the shovel again and used all his strength to dig down. This time, the shovel really hit a stone and made a sound again.
"Ya Dong!" Dazed Beast suddenly pulled Aoki's pants because he felt that something was wrong.
"Dazed Beast, hold on a little longer. I will try to dig out a Dark Stone. Then, our goal will be completed!" However, Aoki misunderstood Dazed Beast's intention.
Dazed Beast did not use telepathy to conserve the energy in his body. Therefore, it was understandable that Aoki misunderstood.
"Ka Ka!"
With another shovel, a faint spark appeared on the surface of the shovel, and a palm-sized stone fell down.
Aoki, with his sharp eyes and agile hands, caught it with his hands.
The stone was not very smooth and even the broken parts were a little sharp. When Aoki touched it, it felt like he was touching a blade.
"Woo!"
Suddenly, a sound was heard from behind Aoki.
In an instant, Aoki's whole body stiffened because he felt something appear behind him. It seemed to have passed through Dazed Beast's energy shield. It did not cause any changes.
Wait, Dazed Beast pulled my pants just now. Was it because of this thing?
Aoki finally reacted.
After waiting for a few seconds, the expected attack did not appear. Aoki slowly turned around.
He saw two eyes.
They emitted a faint red glow and looked at Aoki curiously.
