It didn't matter if you didn't look, but you could see that Lin Tian's eyes were wide open and lifeless, as if they had burned out.
"Xiao Tian! What's wrong?"
Kanroji Mitsuri gently touched Lin Tian.
Meanwhile, Shinobu Kocho was also awakened by her voice and movements.
"Ugh~, what's wrong?"
Shinobu rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Mitsuri Kanroji.
"Hmm? Xiaotian, what's wrong?"
Shinobu Kocho also saw Lin Tian, who was in a daze, and was startled.
"No...it's okay."
Lin Tian's consciousness slowly returned, and seeing the two women's concerned eyes, he forced a smile and said.
"Really? But the way you look in your eyes is like you've been through a lot of torment."
Kanroji Mitsuri looked at Lin Tian suspiciously, and while speaking, she also looked at Nezuko on his body.
You won't be surprised if you don't look!
Nezuko actually pinched Lin Tian's "meat"! It even turned a little blue from pinching it!
Kanroji Mitsuri covered her mouth in disbelief, looking at Lin Tian with a horrified expression.
"Xiao Tian, were you...?"
Shinobu Kocho also noticed the changes in Mitsuri Kanroji, and also noticed the changes in Lin Tian. She never expected that while they were sleeping soundly, Lin Tian was actually enduring such pain!
"Help me move this," Lin Tian said with difficulty.
Upon hearing Lin Tian's words, Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji each pulled Nezuko off Lin Tian.
Lin Tian breathed a heavy sigh of relief, finally feeling relaxed.
However, their movements also woke Nezuko up.
"Ugh~ What are you doing?"
Nezuko opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the two people holding her with a puzzled expression.
After Nezuko was pulled away, Lin Tian got up and walked out of the bedroom.
Before leaving, he said, "You all get some more sleep, I need to wake up."
After saying that, he closed the door, leaving the three people who had just woken up sitting blankly on the bed.
Seeing Lin Tian flee as if he were running away, Nezuko murmured in confusion, "What's wrong with Brother Lin Tian?"
Hearing Nezuko's murmurs, the two women also cast dangerous glances at her.
"What, what's wrong?"
Seeing the two looking at her, Nezuko hugged herself in fear.
.........
Ignoring the three women, Lin Tian went outside and teleported directly to the Undying Totem Farm. Looking at the monsters piled up in front of him, Lin Tian took out the iron sword with the Robbery III enchantment.
After a long while, looking at the box full of Undying Totems, Lin Tian let out a breath, finally feeling relieved!
Lin Tian teleported back into the house. Shinobu and the other two were already sitting at the table preparing breakfast, while Nezuko's face was red, clearly indicating that she had been pinched.
Seeing Lin Tian looking at her, Nezuko blushed slightly. She already knew from the two of them what she had done last night and how much "hurt" she had caused Lin Tian.
The thought that she had not only grabbed it with her own hands last night, but had even unconsciously clamped it between her fingers while she was asleep made her face turn even redder.
"Brother Lin Tian, I'm sorry!"
Nezuko walked to Lin Tian's side, head down, looking as if she was ready to be punished.
Looking at Nezuko, who was as timid as a quail, Lin Tian sighed and patted her head.
"Okay, I know you didn't mean it, but you can't change your body shape so easily anymore, understand?"
Seeing that Lin Tian didn't intend to punish her and was even willing to pat her head, Nezuko smiled again and quickly agreed.
Lin Tian hadn't expected Nezuko to shrink her body. There's a time limit to growing big, so why isn't there one for shrinking?
Lin Tian was puzzled by this question, but it was also possible that shrinking her body would reduce her energy expenditure.
Lin Tian brought Nezuko back to the dining table and saw the food that had been prepared. He was also impressed by Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji's virtuous and domestic qualities.
"Xiao Tian, is there anything we need to do today?"
While they were eating, Shinobu Kocho asked about today's plans. Although an ordinary life was nice, she didn't want to disrupt Lin Tian's plans, as they were related to the opening of the new module.
Upon hearing Shinobu's question, Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, "Today we're going to open a new dimension—the Twilight Forest. Let's first go and see if we can find the Naga's territory."
"Besides that, we need to find more diamonds, after all, our..."
Thinking about diamonds, Lin Tian suddenly remembered a machine that could infinitely generate items in the videos he had seen before.
The three girls exchanged glances, wondering why Lin Tian had suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong? Didn't we say we were going to dig for diamonds?"
Shinobu Kocho looked at Lin Tian and asked him in confusion.
"No, I've thought of a better way, although it may not be as convenient, it's still a good way."
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Shinobu Kocho stopped asking questions.
After the four finished breakfast, the three women followed Lin Tian to the gold-plating machine.
This method of crafting items uses lava and water, and it's actually somewhat similar to the method of building a cobblestone generator, but it uses redstone.
Simply place a clump of tall grass in front of the block stuck to the piston, pull the lever, and once the block pushed out by the piston disappears, you're all set.
At this moment, Lin Tian had reached the final step.
Lin Tian stood by the piston with a pickaxe in his hand and gave Kanroji Mitsuri a look.
Kanroji Mitsuri nodded and pulled the lever, and the machine immediately started operating.
The piston started working, pushing the diamond block forward in one go. The next second, the diamond block shattered, and nothing fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Tian dug up the slime block and sticky piston. The next moment, a diamond block appeared next to the newly spawned cobblestone!
Lin Tian tried to dig away the diamond block, and the next second, a new diamond block was directly placed on the spot!
"It worked!!!" Seeing that a new diamond block had actually appeared, Kanroji Mitsuri jumped up excitedly.
Shinobu and Nezuko watched this scene with joy on their faces; this was truly a treasure!
Lin Tian himself didn't expect it to actually succeed. After all, strictly speaking, this situation should be considered a bug. He didn't expect it could actually be created and work normally!
This means there will never be a shortage of minerals again, and most importantly, it can power Nether Alloy! This stuff is really hard to find! So this is an extremely useful machine!
"Now that we have this, it's time to open up the Twilight Forest."

Chapter 35 As Dusk Falls
"Brother Lin Tian, are you going to open the Twilight Forest?"
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Nezuko asked curiously.
Mitsuri Kanroji and Shinobu Kocho also looked over with some curiosity, wondering what the portal to the Twilight Forest would look like.
After all, they have only seen Nether portals so far, and have never seen an End portal, yet they are now going directly to Twilight.
It wasn't that Lin Tian didn't want to take them, but going to the End now was pointless. The dragons had already been defeated, and unless a module about raising dragons was unlocked later, there was really no need to go.
Moreover, there are hordes of Endermen there; if you accidentally make eye contact with them, be prepared to be ganged up on.
"Yes, let's open the Twilight Portal now, since we'll have to open it eventually anyway."
As Lin Tian spoke, he had Shinobu Kocho bring the Butterfly Mansion members here, since someone had to help them dig for diamonds, right?
Diamonds are still in short supply. Even Lin Tian himself doesn't have a full set of diamond armor, let alone anyone else.
Ultimately, this arduous task was taken on by the Butterfly Mansion trio. Kanao went to the Undying Totem Farm, where they needed people to work, while Kanzaki Aoi ran between the iron and gold refining machines, responsible for collecting them.
After assigning the tasks, Lin Tian led the three women to a new flat area, where they built a foundation and dismantled the lower realm portal, placing it there.
There might be more portals in the future, and it would be more convenient to put them in one place.
After building the foundation, Lin Tian dug up some soil blocks and enclosed a 2x2 space next to the Nether portal. He then casually arranged some flowers around the space and filled the 2x2 pit with water.
After completing these steps, Lin Tian gestured for the three women to step back a bit, then took out a diamond and threw it into the water.
A bolt of lightning struck, hitting the small 2x2 puddle precisely. The next moment, the water in the puddle turned into a dark purple, chaotic state, looking somewhat similar to a Nether portal.
Seeing such a unique way of opening it, the three women found it quite novel, since it cost a diamond to open, which was quite expensive.
Moreover, the area around the opening is filled with flowers before it is opened, which undoubtedly adds a touch of romance.
The final lightning strike from the sky shocked the three women even more.
"Xiao Tian, is this the portal to the Twilight Forest? It feels like..."
Before Kanroji Mitsuri could finish speaking, Kocho Shinobu picked up the conversation: "It feels the same as the Netherworld portal, just placed differently."
Hearing the two women's words, Lin Tian remained noncommittal, but he didn't explain much. After all, it wasn't his design, so how would he know why he would design such a teleportation portal?
"Never mind that, let's go in and take a look. But this time we're just going in to take a look, not to explore the place, understand?" Lin Tian said seriously.
After all, there are a lot of hostile creatures in the Duskwood, and a whole bunch of bosses too, so you have to be careful!
Moreover, due to the realistic lighting and shadows, Lin Tian couldn't imagine what those monsters would look like, especially the first boss—the Naga!
A human-headed snake has materialized, with a vibrant green body...
Lin Tian felt a chill run down his spine at the thought of that scene. To be honest, he really wanted to turn off the light and shadow, but then he remembered that there was already more than one person in this world, and that he would have to go through these things eventually. In particular, there was a time limit for restarting the light and shadow, so he gave up on the idea.
Hearing Lin Tian's warning, the three women nodded in agreement.
With that, Lin Tian jumped in, and the three women followed suit.
The purple liquid rippled briefly before returning to calm.
