Am I a god-tier talent in all my professions?

Chapter 147 The Ruler of the Sixth-Level Nest
I have a feeling that if monsters had even a little bit of intelligence, they might be easier to deal with.

At least they can still fool people.

On the contrary, those monsters that only know how to attack blindly have no room for communication.

It seems that sometimes being extremely stupid isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Being even slightly intelligent is actually not conducive to their survival.

"Heh, it's not like you think you're done just because you've asked all the questions."

Lu Cang smiled and asked, "What is it that you mentioned encountering?"

"Naturally... it is the ruler of this place!"

"The ruler of the sixth-level lair, the great apostle of the source of evil, the Lord of Ten Thousand Bodies True Soul."

Oh ~
From its words... we finally managed to extract some information.

The apostle of evil originating from the source of all evil...

The name of the Lord of the Nest seems to be the source of evil.

The sixth-level lair, that should be this place, the one corresponding to the sixth-tier dungeon.

"Oh, is it very strong?"

"To become an apostle of the source of evil, one must naturally possess unparalleled power."

"It is already the most powerful and perfect being at this level of life."

Even we have to look up to them.

That seems really impressive.

"Iz, let's go back."

Lu Cang looked at Izparut.

Izparut also understands the ancient Ansu language.

However, only Lu Cang and Iz understood what was being said.

"What? Why are you going back already?" Chi Cheng asked, looking puzzled.

Lu Cang said, "According to it, there seems to be a very powerful demon in this underground city. Its strength is unknown, but it should be above the Sunken Continent level."

"I feel it's best not to take any risks for now."

"If we really want to attack it, let's wait until we have a full understanding of the situation before we do so."

Luluwei looked at Lu Cang.

Despite being so much younger than me, she has absolutely no adventurous ideas.

That's a bit too cautious.

Lu Cang's tone carried a hint of urgency.

Izu and Akari exchanged a glance.

Chi Cheng shrugged and said, "Okay."

Lu Cang stretched out his hand, and an exquisite cage appeared.

【The Cage of Souls】

Lu Cang bought all sorts of novel and strange props, but he didn't care when he would use them.

Lu Cang locked this soul in a cage, even though it was pitifully stupid.

But it is still a significant discovery.

This is now confirmed to be the nest... The theory in the book has been verified.

This soul can be kept for future use.

We can extract more information from it, and we can also use it to conduct a lot of research.

In short, we can ask about other information after we leave.

The most important thing right now is to get out of here first.

And just then.

Obades looked up, and Akari also looked up at the sky.

Chi Cheng said, "Brother, I feel a little sorry for you."

"It seems we're too late."

Lu Cang sighed deeply, already understanding what he was talking about.

I didn't originally intend to ask the soul any further questions.

I was thinking of running away as soon as possible, because if I dragged it out too long, I would encounter the final boss it was talking about.

But I didn't expect it.

We had to leave immediately after getting the intelligence; there wasn't enough time.

Izzy shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be a coincidence."

"This aura is the same aura we felt when we first entered this place."

"I thought this place was just like this... I never imagined that something had been watching all along."

"This is my first time in a place like this, so I really don't have much experience."

Izparut's tone was very flat.

Lu Cang: "So, what do we do now?"

Lu Cang looked up and saw a giant human face in the sky, constantly changing various expressions.

In mid-air, there were also many soul entities with faces spiraling like vortexes and bodies resembling human figures.

These spirits floated high in the sky, like people who had once existed.

This must be the so-called Myriad-Body True Soul.

Upon seeing these creatures appear, Lu Cang roughly guessed their fighting style.

To use the spirit form of enemies you have killed to launch an attack?
Since it has no physical form, it cannot be hit by ordinary physical attacks.
Does the soul of the original body reside in a place that is difficult to detect, or exist inside some kind of unknown, solid container?
Furthermore, there should be a large number of methods for attacking the soul.

Without waiting for the opponent to make a move, you can now make many guesses just by looking at the enemy for the first time. This is the benefit of "monster studies" knowledge.

However, Lu Cang sensed that the face in the sky was not the real thing.

and……

I have a feeling that this so-called myriad-body true soul is also a soul life without a physical form?

Lu Cang was still thinking that even if the other party showed up, it didn't necessarily mean they couldn't escape.

Even if they tried to escape, with Obades and Kumironi protecting them, they might still be able to get away.

But after the BOSS appeared.

I feel...

Isn't this boss's health bar a bit short?
Is this thing... something I could kill instantly?

"Hehehe! Hehehehehehe!"

"Ah! Lord True Soul, you have finally revealed yourself! The supreme ruler who commands countless souls and is clad in endless true skin! I revere you!"

"Please tear up these people who have broken their promises and failed to keep their word!"

Ha, who would actually keep such a promise?
"Damn it, am I going to be killed?"

"If I could see the true form of the Myriad True Souls before I am killed, I would definitely bow down to it and deeply regret not keeping my promise to you."

Lu Cang read it aloud.

"Hehehe! Humans! It's too late for you to realize your mistake now!"

"The Myriad Body True Soul is in that direction! If you go there now and beg for mercy, you might still be able to get a whole corpse!"

Lu Cang pointed southwest.

Are you referring to that direction?

"That's right! Are you going to go and beg for mercy now?!"

Lu Cang nodded: "Yes, thank you. I'm on my way there to do my utmost."

"Be afraid, human! I look forward to seeing you beg for mercy."

Lu Cang looked up at Iz.

Iz understood immediately.

Swish!
The surrounding scenery changed in an instant!

In a short while, Lu Cang landed on a hilltop, with Luluwei beside him.

Looking back.

Chi Cheng and the others were now invisible to the naked eye.

It was only through Luluwei's senses that they discovered they were probably tens of thousands of miles away.

call!
The sky exploded with soul light!

Chi Cheng has already started a war against the countless souls!
Luluwei used her senses to explore in the direction her soul pointed.

Are you sure this is the direction?

"Hehehe! There's no mistake!"

"Lord True Soul cannot move. I said it's in this direction, so it's in this direction! You will soon see Lord True Soul's majestic figure!"

What kind of existence is it?

"Hehe... It is the greatest masterpiece in our nest, and the ultimate direction of evolution that we admire. If we can evolve again, we must become beings like it."

Evolutionary direction?

masterpiece?

This guy knows a lot. He's clearly an idiot, yet he knows so much.

Once you get out, you must study it thoroughly.

"Oh? How great is it? What kind of life form is it?"

Swish!
Izzy then led the group to continue in that direction.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at a new place.

"It uses the skin of the strong as its clothes, the bones of the strong as its foundation, and the flesh and blood of the strong to fill its own emptiness!"

"It possesses everything that makes it immune to all magic; it cannot be cut by a knife, nor pierced by a blade. Nothing can harm it! No matter what methods you use, it will all be in vain!"

Swish!
They changed positions once again.

Lu Cang finally saw the location of the so-called Myriad-Body True Soul Master through Luluwei's perception.

It was a twisted tower built from countless skins and bones.

It's crooked and leaning, and doesn't really look like a tower.

The skin on the tower also has many eyes sewn on it.

In addition, there are many messy arms and legs, not only human ones, but also those of many other races, and even monsters.

It is a tower pieced together from different organs.

However, this tower did indeed exude an evil and eerie sense of oppression.

The curses, evil thoughts, and malice emanating from it can drive people mad just by getting close to it.

rather say.

Even from a distance of 20,000 kilometers away, I could feel my soul being constantly pulled toward that direction.

It was like a towering structure that was constantly drawing in one's soul.

If someone has poor control over their soul, it might have already sucked their soul away.

Although it is not large in size.

Based on my current impressions, its level of danger is definitely at least at the level of a submerged monster.

It is even highly likely that it surpasses the Sunken Continent class.

"Lu Cang, can you solve this?"

Lu Cang frowned slightly: "It should be possible."

"But I don't know how to get close to it."

"Is simply getting close enough?"

"Within 200 kilometers, or maybe 50 kilometers if 200 kilometers isn't possible."

Lu Cang thought for a moment.

It summoned void creatures.

A rift in the void opened, and void creatures descended before him.

However, as soon as the Void Pillar Guardian appeared, it immediately knelt heavily on the ground and collapsed lifelessly.

Their souls were directly sucked away.

It's also about absorbing souls...

That's really violent.

Were all the fourth-tier, nation-destroying level monsters instantly killed?

I'm only able to stand here now thanks to Izzy's protection.

Lu Cang also put on a shield to stabilize his mind and a protective shield to safeguard his soul.

Among death spells, there are indeed spells that protect one's own soul.

Lu Cang sacrificed his soul to strengthen these protective spells targeting the soul, thereby enhancing his own protection.

“I’ll bring Obades with me.” “It should be able to perfectly protect you up to that distance.”

Iz stood on the hilltop.

This monster is indeed not simple.

It would definitely be very interesting to actually fight it...

However, since his apprentice had ideas...

Let him give it a try.

Iz was also eager to see just how far Lu Cang could go.
This ability to extract souls can instantly kill so many Tier 6 Sunken-level monsters.

Just seeing Lu Cang use this ability sparks a lot of inspiration in my mind.

To extract a soul from a body that is not suited to it...

Is it possible for me to use soul magic to do something similar?

Messer's skill in soul magic is indeed very high.

What a pity... if he could have used it for good.

If Lu Cang is unable to eliminate this "Ten Thousand True Souls", then Izzy plans to execute Plan B.

Let Obades send Lu Cang away first.

Then, I tried to challenge this thing myself.

What if we can't win...

to be frank.

If we can't win, the consequences won't be borne by us alone.

It's estimated that the entire continent of Ruilen is doomed.

However, if we can't defeat them in the short term, leaving shouldn't be a problem.

Obades and Cumroni protected him.

No matter what, you can always escape, even if you become a corpse.

"wait for me……"

Iz's body vanished instantly.

Lu Cang didn't understand how Iz moved at all.

Is it extremely fast flight?
Or should we use spatial magic?
But does that mean that the magic of teleportation has almost been lost?
There is no longer any long-distance spatial teleportation, but there is a 5th-tier magic spell called Flash.

It was probably less than 50 meters away.

Moreover, the chanting is very long.

I don't know how far this spell can teleport after it's surpassed, but it will definitely be very useful after it's cast without chanting.

I've heard that this is basically the spell that all level 5 mages most want to master without casting.

I need to find an opportunity to ask Iz in detail.

Sigh, my level is too low, but there's so much I want to learn.

There are still so many banned books to read, and theories of destiny, time, and the future to study.

Although I am now highly spiritual, these three major doctrines are still insurmountable mountains.

In addition, Lu Cang is not a fortune teller, which is a corresponding profession.

The theories of these schools of thought cannot be fully understood overnight.

Furthermore, after mastering combat techniques, one must also create their own unique style of combat techniques.

There is also a second source of magic to consider.

Sigh, let's take it slow.

Obardes was soon brought over by Iz, and after learning about the situation, Obardes patted his chest in relief.

"Bag."

Lu Cang nodded: "Then I'll leave it to Brother Shi."

Actually, Lu Cang was still a little worried at first, but after Obades arrived, he felt that unease and concern instantly disappear.

Everything became more reassuring and reassuring.

Iz said, "It still has restrictions on the outside."

"I've broken its seal; you can go in now."

As it spoke, it flashed again.

Iz then led Obardes and Lu Cang to the flat land at the foot of the mountain.

He casually swung his staff!

boom!
The shockwave exploded in mid-air!

Almost simultaneously, countless eyes made of souls enveloped Izparut from all angles.

"Oh!"

"What an interesting use of the soul!"

boom--

Centered on Iz, a divine judgment spread in all directions!

In an instant, it destroyed countless souls rushing towards it!
"Obades! Just run forward!"

"I won't see you off any further!"

"Let me see for myself what kind of pleasure it can bring me!"

Do not……

Why don't you take us somewhere closer?

Why did they start fighting on their own?
Izzy, you're like the kind of villain who just has to court death, you know that?

The kind of person who wouldn't die if they didn't act recklessly.

Lu Cang suddenly regretted it. He should have suggested that he leave first and let them fight if they wanted to.

"Brother Stone, it's all up to you."

Lu Cang sat on the back of the stone, his tone slightly helpless.

The stone, however, raised its large stone finger.

"I'm here."

Okay, I'm relieved to have you here. I hope you can withstand the attack on the soul level.

call--

Countless souls also descended upon Lu Cang!

After taking just a few steps forward, they found themselves in a world filled with countless souls, like sperm swimming in the air.

It was a completely different world from what had just happened.

It looks kind of disgusting...

Obades ran forward quickly, and its speed was actually not slow at all.

Countless souls swooped down towards this place!

At the same time, Lu Cang could feel countless magic spells and combat techniques formed from souls, which were also attacking him!
Lu Cang sensed and looked towards those souls.

"God-level Information Tracing"

Lu Cang instantly obtained the information they once possessed.

These souls were once human beings, and those killed by this monster were people who once existed in a certain region.

This "Ten Thousand True Souls" is not appearing for the first time.

It had already descended upon many places, and many continents were destroyed because of its arrival.

However, it did not descend upon the continent of Ruilen.

There really is a continent that was destroyed because of the arrival of monsters...

Lu Cang raised his hand.

Swish!
All souls within a radius of fifty kilometers vanished instantly.

boom--

From the rear, the aftershocks of Izparut's battle could be heard.

It fought very well.

It seems he has found something that interests him again.

As Obades carried Lu Cang, he kept getting closer to the opponent's main body. The closer he got, the more ferocious the attack became.

The attack on the soul is alright.

Lu Cang can absorb it directly, completely ignoring immunity.

However, as long as the attack is not carried by the soul, Lu Cang's magic and combat skills become almost completely unable to resist.

Sixth-tier magic, sixth-tier combat skills, soul magic, the instinctive attacks of monsters...

Each one is incredibly powerful.

Boom! Boom boom—

These attacks came crashing down, but no matter what, they were all blocked by an invisible shell.

No attack can penetrate it.

Lu Cang's "final sense" was never triggered, and he did not anticipate any sense of crisis.

He had wasted his life by creating a path for himself to die.

A corpse is placed at intervals, so that even if one encounters a life-threatening situation, one can die all the way back.

Like a domino effect on a roller coaster, it all happened in a flash, with each person taking turns dying.

500 kilometers.

400 kilometers.

250 kilometers.

200 km!

Level 6 professionals are indeed incredibly fast. Even the clumsy Obades can easily cover thousands of kilometers at top speed.

When you get close to this distance.

Lu Cang immediately brandished his staff, raising it as if fishing!
A suction force, amplified by wind magic, suddenly erupted!
Amplify the effects of your talent with magic!

"God-level Soul Dominator"!
Between heaven and earth, all souls were in turmoil! The layers of skin and the souls within the white bone tower were pulled out by Lu Cang with a forceful tug, like fishing with a long line!
In this process.

Countless souls that were originally being controlled trembled violently and scattered between heaven and earth!

From within the layers of the towering structure, countless cries of resentment and howls emanated!
Lu Cang effortlessly tore out the monster's soul!

Like a streak of light.

Even amidst countless struggles, resentments, and incomprehensible rage, none could resist this power in the slightest!

In the end, it could only obediently fall into Lu Cang's hands.

It was completely under their control.

The moment it was grasped, the originally heavy and gloomy sky instantly became clear.

The world that was once filled with countless souls suddenly became peaceful and serene.

I sensed this change.

A profound spirituality also brought insights...

This underground city has been shut down.

No, it's not just this dungeon... Perhaps the impact of killing this monster in front of us is far greater than we imagine.

"Can you talk?"

Lu Cang tried to speak to the soul that seemed to be the master of this nest.

However, all that was heard was angry roars, and no rational response was received.

It seems that there are very few intelligent monsters.

Moreover, based on our experience so far, there may not be a correlation between the intelligence and strength of monsters.

such a pity……

We finally managed to clear the dungeon; I was originally planning to keep it and run it repeatedly.

Perhaps ignoring its obstruction and simply walking away would have been the right thing to do?
However, it's hard to say. After they get out, they'll probably try to figure out how to deal with the boss and find a solution. They probably won't sacrifice any more souls until they're sure they can win.

Moreover, if the sacrifices continue...

Where will we go next?
If the monster in front of you is the master of the level 6 lair, is there any way forward?
Or is it that only in this situation will one directly enter the level 7 lair?

The reason why previous dungeon sacrifices did not lead to advancement in tiers was simply because the number of sacrifices was insufficient.

Solving one question only leads to more questions.

Countless possibilities arise from the things we have done in the past.

But in the end, all those thoughts will be withdrawn.

Looking at the enormous corpse before him, a soulless body that was nothing more than empty flesh and blood.

It belongs to the victor; it is pure spoils of war.
