Otherworldly Mysterious Gate

The trees in the formation also gradually stabilized. The so-called practice makes perfect. It was really strenuous to control these thousands of small cycles at first, and even felt a little messy, but after getting used to it, it was actually not that difficult.Now that Lin Shu can finally spare some energy to observe the degree of material energy accumulation outside the Dragon Nest Formation, seeing that the energy accumulation and diffusion have formed a balanced state, Lin Shu is finally relieved, and things seem to be gradually developing towards a benign side. The question now is when these greedy spirit devouring creatures will be wiped out.

The IQs of these ghost-eating creatures are indeed not good enough. Seeing so many companions disappearing silently in the strange vortex exuding tempting deliciousness, they can't stop their progress at all. They are completely dominated by their own instincts So, instinctively want to become stronger and bigger, but only know to keep devouring, simply assimilating, but after growing up, he has to split into two independent individuals because he can't control his body.

This large group of low-level magical creatures may or may not evolve after many, many years. However, before that, Lin Shu really couldn't tolerate this kind of thing that would cause disasters to existing advanced civilizations. exist.

I don't know how long it took, but Lin Shu found that the spirit-eating creatures around him had gradually thinned out, and his soul connection with Nilaya had finally fully returned to normal. It's so obvious, I guess I'll have to complain a lot after I go back.

Lin Shu passed on the current operation status of the Dragon Nest Formation to Nilaya in time, and sure enough, Nilaya's attention was immediately attracted.The transfer target was successful.

Time passed slowly.Finally, the last spirit-eating creature also entered the range of the dragon's nest.However, this time, Lin Shu carefully protected the last few surviving guys. After trying various formations such as the fixed soul formation, the soul lock formation, and the heavenly trapping spirit formation, Lin Shu found that as long as he used the complex fluctuation The formed formation can effectively control such relatively simple creatures. They keep a distance from the formation barrier because they are afraid of complex fluctuations disturbing the soul energy in their bodies.

Lin Shu temporarily refined a few simple props, locked up the remaining dozen or so spirit-eating creatures, and prepared to go back and study them slowly.Next, Lin Shu repeatedly performed the awakening technique several times, searching as far as possible from near to far, and after repeatedly confirming that no fish slipped through the net, he ordered Xiao Xing to approach, but he still needed to maintain a high level of vigilance.

While waiting for Xiaoxing to arrive, Lin Shu began to dismantle the Dragon Nest Formation. When he put the disassembled parts into his ring, he suddenly found that there were a lot of strange crystals in his ring. ball.

"This... so beautiful! Is this what those devouring creatures turned into?"

Jessie raised the crystal ball in her hand high and looked carefully at the light.When the light passes through the crystal ball, it will be distorted and scattered continuously.The iridescent light is flashing, which means that the things inside the crystal ball are active. According to Lin Shu, it should be a combination of soul power and material energy. Since the soul energy inside is active , then it should emit soul fluctuations, but the strange thing is that there is no soul fluctuations around the crystal ball.

"Jessie, I think this is actually a high-grade soul gem!" Nilaya said with certainty after studying it for a while.

"Soul gems? No, I've seen soul gems. Those gems don't look like this. Is there such a feeling of life in them?"

"That's because the soul energy in the soul gems you've seen has been solidified by the material energy, but this one is different, in which the soul power is dominant, and the amount of material energy is small, so it will not be completely blocked by the material energy, so You’ll feel like there’s life inside.”

"Oh... so this is really a soul gem? Then... those soul gems, I mean the ones I have seen before, are they also formed after the death of these soul-eating creatures?"

Lin Shu shook his head: "Probably not. It's just formed after the death of ordinary powerful creatures. If it's a spirit-eating creature, without an extreme environment, it's difficult to trap and kill them and then compress them into soul gems."

Jessie let out an oh, and continued to admire and play with this beautiful crystal ball in her hand obsessively. Women naturally like shiny things, and dragons also like them, but Nilaya seems to be an exception. She is only interested in this soul gem Is it possible to create a more efficient formation core? If feasible, it is estimated that the efficiency and speed of the data processing core will be greatly improved.

"Lin Shu, can this thing...can be used as a refining material?"

"You mean to use this to refine the formation core?"

"Hmm... is it possible?"

"In principle, it is of course feasible. The active ingredients in it will be restrained by the formation, but the difficulty of refining is very high, and it is easy to be crippled if you are not careful."

"It's good if it can be refined, I think... Are you planning how to raise this kind of spirit-eating creature?"

Lin Shu smiled: "Those who know me..."

"Stop it, if you keep talking, Lin Fu is going to go crazy again. Anyway, did I guess right again?"

"Not bad, hehe..."

Jessie suddenly raised her head: "Feeding? Is this too dangerous? If this thing gets out, it will be a disaster."

Nilaya also nodded: "Jessie is right, this thing is really dangerous, and a careless one will be a catastrophe, although this kind of high-grade soul gem is indeed very precious, but is it worth taking such a big risk? ?”

Lin Shu thought about it very seriously, and said seriously: "I also have this concern. If we only analyze the individual of these spirit-eating creatures, these guys are not very harmful to our Taoist people, unless the number is huge..."

"Isn't it just that the quantity is huge? Could it be that you can extract soul gems by raising a small quantity?"

Before Lin Shu could finish speaking, Nilaya interrupted Lin Shu. Lin Shu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, at least tens of thousands of these creatures are needed to refine a soul gem."

"So what about the influence of tens of thousands of devouring creatures on the disciples of Xuanmen?"

"Things below the end of the exogenous sense cannot resist so many spirit-eating creatures. However, these spirit-eating creatures have weaknesses. As long as you carry a simple magic weapon with you, or learn a simple exorcism, you can easily resist them. Simple guy."

"Exorcism? What is it? Why haven't I heard of it?" Niraya asked curiously.

"Uh, the technique I just came up with is specially designed to deal with this kind of spirit-eating creature."

Nilaya was stunned, and after thinking about it, Nilaya still shook her head and said: "There are two more questions, one is whether it is possible to use magic instead of spells to expel these spirit-eating creatures; Next, can you find traces of these spirit devouring creatures?"

Lin Shu nodded appreciatively and said: "You are very thoughtful, yes, these two issues are very important. First of all, it is feasible to use magic energy to deal with this kind of creature, which requires the development of a magic exorcism technique , but it’s not difficult. As for the second problem, I’m going to use another method to solve it. In fact, this method can also solve your two problems at once, and that is to transform the devouring creature.”

"Remodeling?"

"Yes, transformation! Make the core of the devouring creatures into a special structure, so that they can actively emit soul waves, and this soul wave will be set as the magic wave form of the luminescence. In that case, as long as Once this kind of thing appears, it can be found with the naked eye. Even if it is invisible to the naked eye, it can be detected by the fluctuation of magic energy. Moreover, we can also make this fluctuation component into the main structure of the soul of the devouring creature. Once this component is attacked, It will break up the soul structure of the devouring creatures."

Niraya's eyes lit up. Lin Shu's solution is indeed a good solution to all problems. If such spirit-eating creatures can be observed by the naked eye and destroyed by magic attacks, they will no longer be scary. Come, their value is highlighted.

"But what if someone uses it?"

"You mean the contracted summoned beast?"

"Yes, if someone controls these guys, wouldn't it become a very powerful assassination method?"

"Uh...you're thinking too much. Do people have few assassination methods now? I'm not afraid of one more. Moreover, I don't intend to spread this kind of soul-eating creature to the outside world. endemic species."

"You think, it's just that others will inevitably be jealous when they see it."

Lin Shu spread his hands, this question is really difficult to answer, but Lin Shu is not the kind of person who is afraid of wolves and tigers, since the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, a little harm to Lin Shu is acceptable. In fact, this kind of creature It's not as scary as imagined. Individually speaking, it takes some effort to kill an ordinary person.

Nilaya understands Lin Shu's thoughts very well. Although she still has some reservations, she must be able to find more ways to deal with this creature as she learns more about it.

After all, high-grade soul gems are extremely important to improving the technical level of Xuanmen and even the entire civilization. For this reason, it is understandable for Nilaya to take some risks.

"Okay, but I suggest that you first research ways to restrain them. In addition, if you can transform them, you might as well transform them to be more fragile. Anyway, all you need is their ability to collect scattered soul energy and assimilate them. You don't need them much. powerful."

"Hehe...I understand. Don't worry, leave this matter to me. Before the official start, I will let you review the samples and the whole plan."

"What do you mean? Drive me away?"

"No, aren't you very busy? It's taken up so much of your time!"

Niraya rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Very well, I will tell Lin Dao about this incident in detail."

"Hey...don't..."

Lin Shu's outstretched hand froze in mid-air. Nilaya had teleported away and disappeared. Jessie covered her mouth and smiled secretly. Lin Shu turned her head to look, but she pretended to study the soul gem ball in her hand. (To be continued..)
