Lin Tian directly led the four girls to the area below the Cloud Cottage. Because the Troll Caves were generally located beneath it, he could go straight up after getting the Magic Beans.
The rest went very smoothly. The five of them easily took care of the guards in the Troll Caves, then came to two very conspicuous obsidian blocks.
If all went as expected, there would definitely be Magic Beans inside the small obsidian block, and a chance for an Ash Lamp inside the large one.
Unfortunately, the large obsidian could only be mined with a Giant's Pickaxe. Normal pickaxes wouldn't work, not even a Netherite one.
Lin Tian quickly mined the obsidian enclosing the chest, opened it, and sure enough, a strangely shaped bean was lying quietly inside.
"Let's go, it's time to head to the Cloud Cottage."
.....
Arriving on land, Lin Tian found a patch of fertile soil and threw the Magic Bean down directly.
The ground began to tremble violently. A very thick plant started to grow upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye. Before long, it connected to the cloud where the Cloud Cottage was located.
Even more magically, the plant that grew from the magic bean automatically formed the shape of a staircase, making it convenient for them to go up.
"Wandering the Mortal Realm: A very magical bean, it can even be compared to the abilities of the Dendro Archon."
"Mad Love for Hashirama: Sky-reaching vine, magic bean, divine tree..."
"Silly Girl: Lord Madara is starting to have regrets again. It's not that serious."
"Her Highness Ai: After all, it was his lifelong wish, only to find out it was someone else's conspiracy. Anyone would feel bad."
"Sister Looking for Her Brother: If you ask me, he's just too comfortable! Throw him on the moon with that Toneri for a few days and he'll feel better. Or he could seal his own chakra, be an ordinary person, and move bricks for a day. See if he still wants any ideals then!"
"Mad Love for Hashirama: Are you done yet!"
"Sister Looking for Her Brother: I'm telling the truth. For a real ordinary person who has a family to support, who has the heart to think about what their dream is? Isn't it all just about survival!"
"God's Tongue: Are you really Lumine? How are you so eloquent! It feels so reasonable!"
"Silly Girl: That's right! Lumine, you've suddenly become smart! Did you eat some mushrooms?"
"Sister Looking for Her Brother: What are you talking about? Huh! What are you talking about?! I've always been very smart, okay?"
....
Ignoring the commotion in the live-stream room, Lin Tian looked at the two unusually large giants in front of him. He was also a little dazed. He hadn't expected them to be this big in person!
And the two giants had the skins of Steve and Alex! Especially that Alex, she was really big!
But the two giants only looked big; their actual combat power was really not that great.
Although their attack range was a bit far, they were all wearing full sets of enchanted Netherite armor. They weren't afraid at all!
The five of them directly surrounded them. It was unknown if Lin Tian looked like their father's killer or for some other reason, but the two giants only chased after him, not even glancing at the other four girls.
Being so hated by the two giants, although Lin Tian was annoyed, there was nothing he could do. He could only fight on the move and had to take a bite of an Enchanted Golden Apple during the openings.
He was already used to getting hit now and didn't feel much pain, but he could still feel his condition declining, which was why he ate a few Enchanted Golden Apples. Otherwise, he wouldn't have eaten them at all!
If getting hit could make him stronger, he would have been fighting those monsters every day long ago.
After all, the more he got hit, the less it hurt. Maybe then he would really not be afraid of death.
Before long, the two giants were defeated by the five's attacks. A super-large Giant's Sword and a super-large Giant's Pickaxe were left on the ground.
And with this Giant's Pickaxe, he could now mine the 4x4x4 obsidian in the Troll Caves. After getting the Lamp of Cinders, he could go to the Final Castle.
At that time, he would have to send Shinobu and the others back first...
"With this pickaxe, we can now mine that giant obsidian below."
Hearing Lin Tian's words, the girls also braced themselves. They were about to fight the final boss! It would be a lie to say they weren't nervous!
But they didn't back down, because they also wanted to help Lin Tian. They didn't want to be just pretty faces!
The group arrived at the Troll Caves. Lin Tian, with some effort, picked up the Giant's Pickaxe and began to mine the giant obsidian.
Before long, the obsidian was broken, revealing the chest inside.
Lin Tian stood in front of the chest and opened it. With quick eyes and hands, he put something from inside into his inventory.
As for what it was, even the people in the live-stream room didn't know, because he had turned off the screen display the moment he opened it, and then instantly turned it back on. This left everyone in the live-stream room confused, not understanding why the screen had suddenly gone black.
And at this moment, Lin Tian's voice came, "What a pity, it's not here."
As he spoke, he even had a bitter look on his face.
Seeing him like this, even the slightly suspicious Shinobu began to comfort him. Although she had also been watching the live stream, she would never have thought that Lin Tian was planning to face the Final King alone!
"It's okay, you can always look for it later!"
"That's right, it's just bad luck this time. It will definitely drop next time!"
....
The group comforted Lin Tian one after another, and he also seemed to be encouraged by everyone and recovered.
"That's right! It was just bad luck this time. I'll just find it next time! Well then, everyone, let's go back first!"
Hearing his words, the four girls, who had thought he would continue searching, looked at him with confusion. Why wasn't he looking for it now?
Lin Tian obviously also noticed their confused gazes and immediately explained, "After we get the Lamp of Cinders, we have to fight the final boss. We should go back and prepare first, shouldn't we?"
Hearing his words, the four girls also understood. They all nodded, agreeing with his idea.
Seeing the four girls agree, Lin Tian also used teleportation directly and took them back to the portal.
Returning to the Overworld, it was already night again. It seemed they would have to prepare tomorrow.
(The protagonist has already closed the live-stream room.)
....
Late at night, after his great battle with Mitsuri Kanroji was over, Lin Tian looked at the two sleeping girls and gently touched their faces.
For the past few days, he didn't know what kind of deal Shinobu and Mitsuri had made, but Shinobu had been sleeping in the Butterfly Mansion.
"Forgive me, Mitsuri. I can't let you go and fight an enemy you can't possibly win against."
As he spoke, Lin Tian took out a golden, teapot-like item.
It was the Lamp of Cinders!
