Dark Immortal Cultivation

After a fierce battle, Zhang Qing was overjoyed.

One of his important purposes in venturing into the ancient ruins was to test the power of the "Mystic Light Technique" in actual combat.

As it turns out, this spell, obtained through powerful enhancement, is not only very reliable in dealing with evil spirits, but also has unexpected effects.

Compared to "Blazing Fire Technique", it is more than one level higher!

Zhang Qing felt it necessary to dedicate more time to cultivating the "Mystic Light Technique" in the days to come.

While he was overjoyed, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If you had more powerful energy before and used it all to enhance the "Spirit Light Technique", would you have obtained an even better "Mystic Light Technique"?

However, the thought flashed through Zhang Qing's mind for a moment before he quickly put it out of his mind.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. What you have is the most real thing. Thinking too much is pointless!

He began cleaning up the battlefield, carefully searching for anything left behind by the two ghouls.

The first ghoul was blasted to smithereens by the blazing fire, leaving black ashes scattered all over the ground; there seemed to be no loot to be gained.

But Zhang Qing soon discovered two dark gray fragments of different sizes.

Although they were inconspicuous mixed in with the ashes, Zhang Qing glanced at them and instantly locked onto them like a phased array radar.

Perhaps it's because he has already come into contact with quite a few fragments of the ruins.

Therefore, their intuition in this area is exceptionally sharp!

The next moment, Zhang Qing waved his hand and unleashed a swirling breeze that swept away the ashes on the ground.

The two pieces that appeared to be fragments of the ruins were immediately and completely presented before his eyes.

Zhang Qing picked it up without hesitation.

[A powerful substance has been discovered. Should it be absorbed?]

what!

His heart immediately filled with joy.

[Powerful +0.4]

[Powerful +0.2]

Cool!

One ghoul contributed two fragments of the Void Item, allowing Zhang Qing to gain 0.6 points of Power Energy in one fell swoop.

He suppressed his excitement and quickly continued the search.

The other ghoul is much more troublesome.

This ghoul had previously lurked underground and ambushed Zhang Qing, but he severed both of its hands with his Qingfeng Sword and then killed it with Xuan Guang Technique.

The corpse demon that had consumed the exorcising light exploded beneath the stone slab, scattering countless fragments of its corpse everywhere.

There are also many remains underground.

What's worse, these bits of bone and flesh not only looked disgusting, but also emitted a strong stench of decay.

This is truly a challenge to Zhang Qing's will!

He had no choice but to hold his breath, break off another dry branch, and search bit by bit.

Unfortunately, although fragments of the ruins have a static electricity effect, they only react when touched. They don't emit light or have any very obvious characteristics, so if they are mixed in with flesh and bones, they are easily overlooked.

For the sake of the precious power, Zhang Qing did not overlook any suspicious piece of corpse demon flesh on the ground.

In addition, some fragments of remains were scattered among the grass and rocks, making the search even more difficult!

But perseverance pays off. After searching for more than half an hour, Zhang Qing finally found a fragment of a relic embedded in the bone.

This bone must be the skull of a ghoul. It was blown to pieces and fell into the weeds. Fortunately, it was quite large, so he found it.

The fragments of the artifact embedded in the skull were dark red and shimmered with a gem-like luster.

It was completely different from the fragments Zhang Qing had obtained before.

But that doesn't matter at all.

The important thing is how much powerful energy it can bring to Zhang Qing!

[A powerful substance has been discovered. Should it be absorbed?]

absorb!

[Powerful +0.7]

What the hell!

The information displayed in the field of vision delighted Zhang Qing!

He wasn't actually greedy.

I was initially hoping to find just one more fragment of the ruins, since not every evil creature leaves behind such precious materials after it's destroyed.

As it turns out, not only was it found, but it also gave Zhang Qing a huge surprise!

Now the accumulated power points on the data panel have reached a staggering 1.3.

Zhang Qing suddenly felt richer than ever before.

But at that moment, a chilling feeling suddenly surged in his heart and instantly seeped into his limbs and bones.

It instantly put him into a state of paralysis!

This sudden surge of joy turned to sorrow almost broke Zhang Qing's will.

Fortunately, his current [divine soul] attribute is very high, and he did not lose his mind at the critical moment, thus preserving a sliver of clarity in his mind.

The next moment, Zhang Qing bit his tongue hard.

The scorching, rusty smell instantly jolted him fully awake, forcibly suppressing the overwhelming fear within him.

Zhang Qing suddenly turned his head to look in the right direction.

His intuition told him that the threat was there!

Amidst the ruins a few dozen steps away, a pale figure came into Zhang Qing's view.

Its form was hazy and indistinct, looking much like a disheveled woman in white, standing quietly on a pile of rubble, her body emanating wisps of twisted, snake-like black mist.

Although Zhang Qing couldn't see the other's facial features, he could clearly feel that it was staring at him.

They saw themselves as prey!

Zhang Qing's heart sank suddenly.

He was so engrossed in searching for loot that he lingered here for too long.

This attracted the evil creature!

Although there was no record or description of any monsters in the "Illustrations of Evil and Strange Things" in Zhang Qing's memory.

Even from such a great distance, it could still put so much pressure on Zhang Qing.

Its eeriness is unimaginable!

The more bizarre and sinister something is, the more powerful and terrifying it is.

At this moment, every cell in Zhang Qing's body was screaming desperately.

Run, run fast!!

His legs trembled slightly involuntarily, and the clarity he had just gained from biting his tongue was beginning to slip away again.

wrong!

Zhang Qing bit his broken tongue again, forcing himself to come back to his senses.

His pupils suddenly contracted!

Because in Zhang Qing's field of vision, the distance between that strange creature and himself suddenly shrank by nearly half.

The problem is that he still can't see the other person's exact appearance.

Not only that, but a sinister aura silently surged in, causing the temperature of the surrounding space to drop sharply.

Frost appeared on the surface of the weeds and rocks!

No!

Intuition told Zhang Qing that he had very little time to react, and he might be attacked by the evil spirit at any moment.

And he was powerless to resist!

Ancient ruins, scattered throughout the wilderness, may conceal countless resources, but to obtain them, one must constantly face such dangers.

Life and death are often separated by only a moment!

But Zhang Qing, facing the terrifying prospect of life and death, became incredibly calm.

He stared intently at the strange creature, his stiff right hand resting on the storage pouch at his waist.

The next moment, a talisman appeared in Zhang Qing's hand.

It's just an ordinary talisman for warding off evil spirits.

Add some points!
