Versatile Mage: I have no intention of dimensional throne

Chapter 165 The soul returns to the deep earth, the mysterious skeleton

The four of them buried the elemental surveyor separately, guarded it for a while, and then took it out.

He handed it over to Sikong Wen to read the information. It didn't take long for Sikong Wen to read out the survey information.

"I found the location of the soul seed. Fortunately, we arrived early, otherwise if we follow this trend, the soul seed will be completely mature and exposed, and I won't be able to get it by then."

"So the Flowing Rock Turtle must have sensed the signs and came here."

Bai Mo turned his head and glanced at the dead Liuyan turtle.

Nodding, Sikong Wen agreed and said at the same time.

"I will absorb it on the spot, and there may be residual soul seeds emitted by then. Please help me protect it."

Ye Xing nodded silently, with a firm expression and no words.

"Don't worry, we'll be watching from the outside for you." Bai Mo nodded gently, then flew up with Ding Yumian and sat on the back of the Liuyan Earth Turtle.

Sikong Wen moved quickly. It didn't take long for him to get through the location of the soul seed and start absorbing it.

Wisps of pure earth elemental energy also slowly rippled out, attracting the demons on the island, all of whom were slaves and generals who only relied on instinct.

Bai Mo flicked his fingers, and an arrow of sound penetrated a hundred meters, easily solving them.

He also used mind control to capture a few and stabbed them to death with a silver hairpin gun. Finally, he discovered that the essence was indeed missing!

Just like those demons who were killed by the silver hairpin gun from time to time, no matter whether they were remnants or essences, they were gone!

All the thoughts in Bai Mo's eyes, he remembered that before he came to this island, he could see the remnants of the killed monsters. First of all, rule out that your soul vessel is broken, because your vessel still contains soul.

Secondly, he remembered what Ding Yumian had said before, so he turned to look at Ding Yumian.

"The discovery you mentioned before meant that the spirits and remnants of these demons will disappear?"

"almost."

Ding Yumian nodded slightly and shook his head, "They have not disappeared. Although I can't see those spirits, I can feel the power of those souls."

"They didn't disappear, so where did they go?"

After Bai Mo said this, he suddenly reacted and stared directly at the ground beneath the two of them.

"I can feel the soul power being absorbed by the ground beneath our feet. There must be something special about this island."

Ding Yumian confirmed his idea, and at the same time, a pale flame ignited in her hand. With a flick of her hand, it burned a bush of grass in the distance to ashes.

"Furthermore, I discovered that the weak soul power of a very common plant like this after death will also be absorbed by the ground."

"Could it be because of that soul seed?"

Bai Mo looked thoughtfully at the deep pit where Sikong Wen absorbed the soul seed, subconsciously asked, and then immediately denied it.

"No, the fluctuations emitted by that soul seed are of the earth type, and they can attract souls and absorb souls under my dead soul vessel. It should be the power of the undead type!"

After finishing speaking, his brows furrowed even more tightly, and another question arose, "How can this island have the power of the undead?"

"When we first arrived on the island, I noticed that the soul power of the monsters killed by you suddenly disappeared. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but as we went deeper and strangled the monsters, I discovered that all the monsters we had destroyed The soul of life is absorbed into the ground.”

Knowing that he might want to explore, Ding Yumian recounted her discovery, "This suspected undead power covers the entire island."

"I want to go underground and have a look." Bai Mo stared at his feet.

Ding Yumian showed an unexpected expression and nodded lightly.

"Wait until Sikong Wen finishes absorbing the soul seed, and I'll join you."

"it is good."

It didn't take long for Sikong Wen to absorb it successfully. Bai Mo talked about his discovery, which immediately attracted the attention of the two.

When he heard that Bai Mo wanted to go underground to explore, Sikong Wen immediately said that they would come together.

"There are no tunnels or anything like that on this island. I'll dig a tunnel for you, faster."

"No need, I can use the ground wave to go down, but I can't bring too many people with me."

Bai Mo refused. At the same time, dark golden earth elements gathered around him. A faint dark golden light spread upward from the soles of his feet to cover his whole body, and then spread to Ding Yumian's body.

"Ground Wave - Patrol!"

The two people covered in dark golden light were seen sinking into the earth like raindrops falling into the water, causing slight fluctuations in the land.

"Holy crap! Level five ground wave!"

Sikong Wen stared dumbfounded at the two men who melted into the ground, surprised by Bai Mo's aura.

The effect of level five ground wave is similar to that of level five wind track.

Patrolling the territory allows the earth mage to blend into the rock and earth and travel freely underground. As long as the magic energy is sufficient, this state will not exit.

It's just that unlike ground wave movement, which can take five or six people at a time, Xinjiang Xinjiang can only take one person at most.

Bai Mo took out an essence from the dead soul vessel and let it fall into the soil, only to find that it was not absorbed.

Instead, it keeps sinking downwards. Xunjiang has its own perception ability called ground vision, which allows it to find the essence that it has released.

So the two of them traveled deeper and deeper under the leadership of this spirit. After reaching a sufficient depth, the tight rock and soil greatly weakened their ability to patrol the border.

Bai Mo could only maintain this state by continuously providing more magic energy, and was not thrown away by the sinking spirit.

Suddenly there was a flash of light, and the spirit in front of him disappeared.

Um? Bai Mo was stunned for a moment, then accelerated and moved forward.

Suddenly, the surroundings were empty, and the two figures suddenly fell to the ground as if they had suddenly fallen into a pit.

Bai Mo hugged Ding Yumian and stood up, but his hand that was not in the right place was swatted away.

He pretended not to know anything, turned around and saw darkness. Nothing was seen, not even the spirit.

"Pong!"

A firelight rose from Ding Yumian's hand, and the bright light illuminated the entire surrounding environment.

This is actually an underground cave!

The overall scope of this underground space is not large, only about ten square meters, and its shape is irregular. The space that can accommodate them walking upright is only five meters.

The surrounding land is black, and on an earth wall, a section of white stone protruding from the wall is particularly conspicuous.

Bai Mo and Ding Yumian looked at each other and walked towards the white stone.

The cave space near the white stone was very low, and the two of them had already squatted down when they passed by. After walking a few more duck steps, I arrived in front of it.

When they got closer, they saw that the white stone was not completely white, but had thin dark red lines on it. When it first fell, neither Bai Mo nor Ding Yumian sensed danger or life, so Bai Mo knocked on the white stone casually.

The stone is shaped like a cone, but the tip is rounded and the overall shape is somewhat flat.

The sound produced by the knocking was carefully detected against the white stone, but there was no gain.

"Do you think this thing is causing trouble?" Ding Yumian looked at Bai Mo.

"I don't know, let's give it a try." Bai Mo shook his head and took out another slave-level essence and let it fall into the air.

As soon as this essence appeared in the air, it seemed to be affected by great gravity and merged into the white stone like lightning.

"The soul was absorbed by it. It seems that this thing did it. But how can such a small stone cover the entire island?"

Bai Mo raised his eyebrows and touched the surface of the stone with some confusion. It felt cold, as if he was touching glass in winter.

Suddenly, an extremely weak stream of light, which looked extremely inconspicuous under the bright pale fireworks held by Ding Yumian, streaked across the stone.

The two people stared at each other at the same time. After making sure that they were not dazzled just now, Ding Yumian said with some doubts.

"I just felt weak spiritual fluctuations on it, which are similar to ordinary plants."

"I found that this doesn't seem to be a stone, and I don't feel any earth element breath on it."

The voices of the two people sounded almost indiscriminately. After hearing each other's words, both of them fell on the white thing, thoughtfully.

"It's not a stone, then..." Bai Mo was about to ask if it could be some strange treasure from heaven and earth, but his eyes were attracted by the light at the tip of Ding Yumian's neck.

"Your totem device is glowing."

Ding Yumian also noticed the trembling of the totem device at this time, as if it was about to make some changes. She immediately remembered the time she took Bai Ze to see the hollow willow.

In a flash of thought, Bai Ze's ability to activate the Hundred Beasts Chart was activated.

Then I saw the Baize totem device slowly flying up, and at the same time, a mysterious white light lit up on the simple lines, and the white light connected to what seemed to be a white stone.

The light lasted for a long time and did not mean to stop, but there was no change at all.

"What kind of creature do you think this might be?" Bai Mo guessed her thoughts and remembered what she said about the effect of Bai Ze's Hundred Beasts Picture - it can represent the scene of a living being before death.

Ding Yumian nodded slightly, looking at the totem device.

After a long time, maybe a stick of incense, maybe two hours, maybe half a day.

The brilliance of the totem device was still connected to the unknown white object, but nothing happened.

Just when Ding Yumian thought that his judgment was wrong and planned to take back the totem device. But I saw the Baize totem device suddenly glowing with light!

The strong stream of light turned the totem device into a two-foot-wide scroll. The light of the scroll continued to connect to the stone while slowly unfolding.

Like a fairy cloud, a faint white light mist spread over the fully unfolded scroll, and the two of them stared at the surface of the scroll attentively.

After the wave-like halo passed by, a somewhat broken picture appeared on the small scroll.

It can be seen that the location should be above the sea. The sky above the sea is blurred, and only the figure of the bird flying in the sky is relatively clear.

It can be seen that this bird is about five meters tall, with a graceful figure, and long feathers flying like long hair on its head whose face cannot be seen clearly.

It was falling downwards, as if it had lost its strength and was about to fall into the sea, or as if it was fighting to the death with the endless ocean.

The scene only appeared on the screen for a few seconds, and then suddenly collapsed. There is no change in perspective like the last time I took a photo of a hollow willow.

The two of them could only know from this that the white thing exposed in the underground space should be the skeleton of the mysterious bird.

And why her bones appear here.

"It seems that it possesses the power of the undead."

Bai Mo's eyes fell on the dark red lines on the white skeleton in front of him. The dark red also represented the undead system. He had not thought about this aspect before, but he had ignored it.

Just listen to him continue:

"Absorbing souls may only be its power after death, but I don't know how long ago it died. The power after death can cover the entire swamp island through a hundred meters of ground. I think it must have been very powerful during its lifetime."

Ding Yumian nodded slowly, his eyes moving slightly as he added.

"There is another possibility that it is not dead. It is using this undead power to restore itself. It is accumulating strength and trying to wake up."

Bai Mo's face froze slightly, but he recovered quickly. Thinking of the scene before the death of this creature, he looked at Ding Yumian.

"Tell me, is it possible that this is a totem beast?"

"I don't know, this bone doesn't emit totem light." Ding Yumian shook his head.

"It may also be that it has been dead for too long and cannot react at all. It can only rely on absorbing soul power to hold its breath. After all, the soul power dropped by natural death on this island is not very much."

"Maybe we can look for it." Bai Mo looked at the skeleton thoughtfully.

"This exposed skeleton is very complete. There should be other body parts in the ground. Let's look for them next to each other. If it is a totem, there should be totem marks or patterns."

"it is good."

So Bai Mo used Xunjiang again, and followed the direction of the protruding bones to escape into the rock and soil. During this period, he found that where these bones existed, his Xunjiang could not escape at all.

This undoubtedly reduced a lot of workload, while gradually exploring along the bones in the rock and soil. The two of them used the images just now to outline in their minds the image of a divine bird that was unable to sink to the bottom of the sea.

Gradually, Bai Mo discovered that the skeleton they originally found should be the wing position of this mysterious bird, and they made a large circle counterclockwise before finally finding the head of this ancient creature.

When looking at the projection of Bai Ze's picture of beasts, the two thought that the bird should be small in size. But after some detection, they found that this ancient creature was almost twenty meters in size.

Although the heads of birds are not large, even if only the skeleton is left on the head of this dead creature, its huge appearance is enough to compare with the small villa where they live.

At the position of this ancient creature's head, a little above the center of its window-like eyes. Bai Mo finally saw an almost invisible pattern.

Bai Mo used his earth ability to open up a small space in front of this pattern and rubbed it.

This pattern is very similar to the long hair-like feathers in the image, not too big or too small, about two meters.

Apart from these lines, the two of them had nothing to gain. So he planned to return to the surface.

Now it is certain that this skeleton should be that of a bird totem.

Just based on the simple and blurry image and the lines, it was difficult for them to determine what this totem was, but it should have something to do with the undead system.

Before leaving, Bai Mo gave it all his remaining five slave-level spirits.

I hope this magical bird can really live another life by absorbing souls.
