In an instant, each bone-piercing nail emitted a dazzling light, revealing the shape of the shadow lizard in the middle.

Soul-guided hidden weapon, the glowing bone-piercing nail.

After sacrificing countless soul guide lamps, Gu You and Tang San finally succeeded in separating the magic array that converts soul power into light from a group of magic arrays, and successfully replicated it on the hidden weapon Bone Piercing Nail.

Although there are many problems such as it has no power supply and therefore cannot be used alone, and the characteristics of luminous and hidden weapons do not match, it gives the bone-piercing nail a completely new job, which is to open a path.

All of Tang San's hidden weapon techniques will make the hidden weapons carry soul power, which means that the bone-piercing nails will glow slightly due to the residual soul power when thrown out.

In addition, Tang San can generate blue silver grass at will in a large area, and his first soul skill, taking root, can convert vitality into soul power. In the pitch-black environment, he can use bone-piercing nails to open a path, and then use his first soul skill to input soul power.

The result is the street lights.

Of course, this sudden light can also reveal things hidden in the darkness. Unfortunately, the shadow lizard is the first life form to experience this use.

Gu You quickly glanced at all the shadow lizards. Because they were suddenly exposed to the strong light and there was no shadow to sneak into, all the shadow lizards were stunned and did not move.

"The one in the front left. Ranta, limbs!"

"Yes, big brother." Ranta quickly pulled the bow four times, and four arrows of light accurately hit the shadow lizard's limbs.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing didn't wait for Gu You to say anything. She directly possessed the body with her martial spirit and sent the shadow lizard away with a Netherworld stab.

There was not even a trace of blood on the sharp claws. Zhu Zhuqing brushed her hair back and turned to ask, "Is this the one?"

Gu You answered stupidly: "...Yes, that's it."

After receiving a definite answer, Zhu Zhuqing did not ask any more questions, but sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the spirit ring. Gu You was left dumbfounded and said, "Hey, wait a minute, I haven't introduced it yet."

An hour later, Zhu Zhuqing opened her eyes.

Before everyone gathered around, Zhu Zhuqing shouted, "Netherworld Spirit Cat, possess me."

Normally, after the Nether Spirit Cat spirit possesses a person, the eyes will change to different colors, with the left eye dark green and the right eye clear blue. But now, Zhu Zhuqing's left eye remained dark green, but the right eye changed from the original clear blue to black.

Unlike the black pupils without martial spirits, the black pupils with martial spirits completely lost their luster. Even if someone looked at the pupils, there would be no reflection of the eye. It was like a black hole that swallowed up all the light.

The cat's spiked claws turned completely black, and an ominous black mist lingered on its body. Even though Zhu Zhuqing just stood there quietly, she felt a hazy sense of illusion.

Tang San couldn't help but use the Purple Demon Pupil, so that he could confirm that what he saw was real.

"Level 22 soul power, is this the true power of the Netherworld?" Zhu Zhuqing looked at her hands in disbelief. Darkness enveloped her body, and the profound power made her addicted. Zhu Zhuqing had the illusion of being one with the darkness.

"How does it feel?"

Following the sound, Gu You appeared in front of Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing felt goosebumps all over her body and jumped into the shadow of the forest.

"???"

Gu You looked at his body and found no blood or other strange things. Why did Zhu Zhuqing behave like this?

Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks flushed as she reacted. She quickly walked out of the forest and said a little embarrassedly, "Well, I just absorbed the spirit ring and I'm not used to it for a while."

"...It's okay, I don't mind." Gu You was skeptical, but now was not the time to worry about it, "The effect of your second soul skill..."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled and said, "As you said, the netherworld power of my martial soul has awakened."

Looking at the black mist wrapped around his hands, Zhu Zhuqing said confidently: "My second soul skill allows me to lurk in the shadows, and I can shuttle between the shadows by consuming a certain amount of soul power. It also greatly enhances my movement speed and perception ability."

"The second soul skill is called Netherworld..."

"Let's call it Shadow Attack." Gu You didn't give Zhu Zhuqing a chance to finish her words and directly snatched away the naming rights for the soul skill.

ps1: The soul guide has an anti-theft function. If you disassemble it and use it once, the entire magic circle will be scrapped. If you have ideas about how to transform your soul guide into a hidden weapon, please submit them here.

ps2: Some friends scolded me for saying that Zhu Zhuqing's portrayal is not like a normal person. Let me clarify that this is the fact.

She is the second daughter of the Zhu family of the Xingluo Empire and the prince's fiancée. How could she be a normal person? It's good enough that she didn't become one of the people you can see everywhere on the Internet.

Those are fake, but she is real. According to her class status and education, these behaviors are normal.

People's favorable impression of Zhu Zhuqing mainly comes from her hard work and attitude of traveling thousands of miles to find her husband, and the other part comes from the contrast with Dai Mubai. (At least that's how I feel about her)

In the original novel, she is one of those “mediocrities who don’t dare to cause trouble”. As for how normal she is after receiving education in the Xing Luo Empire…you can judge for yourself.

Considering the effects and characteristics of the Shadow Lizard, the final design turned into a Pokémon. Zhu Zhuqing is certainly not a pure reconnaissance spirit master. If the first spirit ring is based on the protagonist's idea, it will become a spirit skill like "weakness perception", and the third spirit ring will provide output. Lurking, perception, burst, take it away in one set. I have to work overtime again tomorrow, how can I write a book? ! ! ! Please recommend and monthly votes~~~

Chapter 144 This Shouldn't Have Happened

"........."

Tang San held his forehead helplessly. This guy Gu You came again and even wanted to snatch the naming rights of the spirit skills of someone he had only known for a few days.

A huge crack appeared in Zhu Zhuqing's image of Gu You's tall stature, and she felt disillusioned.

At the beginning, Zhu Zhuqing thought Gu You was very powerful and could kill a hundred-year-old crocodile cat in an instant.

Then, Gu You’s image became sharp and intelligent, able to quickly analyze his true identity and point out the solution to the current dilemma.

Then, the label of "erudite" was added. He understood the characteristics of the Nether Spirit Cat Martial Spirit and gave a new direction for strengthening the Martial Spirit.

But now, the fantasy was shattered. Seeing Gu You nodding proudly, as if he was very satisfied with the name he had given, Zhu Zhuqing felt that "this Gu You ≠ that Gu You".

Please, you are the one who can kill a hundred-year-old soul beast with one whip of your tail, why would you do such a thing?

…Although “Shadow Attack” sounds pretty good, it’s better than the “Netherworld Hidden” that I prepared…

Just some.

After confirming that Zhu Zhuqing successfully obtained the spirit ring and awakened the power of the netherworld as Gu You expected, everyone prepared to say goodbye to Zhu Zhuqing and complete Brother Jie's commission.

After Zhu Zhuqing knew the whole story, she strongly asked for help.

She and her sister Zhu Zhuyun had a very good sister relationship before she had a martial soul resonance with Xingluo Prince Dai Mubai.

Recalling what the guard assigned by the family said to her before entering the Soul Beast Forest, Zhu Zhuqing now had no ill feelings towards her sister.

The brotherhood between Zhao Jie and Zhao Wei reminded Zhu Zhuqing of the deep sisterly love she had with Zhu Zhuyun in the past.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was determined to have a good talk with Zhu Zhuyun and get rid of Dai Mubai who ran away alone, decided to help and assist Gu You in finding clues about Zhao Wei.

On the other hand, it was also to repay Gu You's kindness.

Gu You only needed to help her find a hooked-claw cat of the right age to complete the task. Zhu Zhuqing didn't expect them to provide her with much help in hunting souls, as long as they helped her find a hooked-claw cat of the right age.

As a result, he did not find a hooked cat of the right age, but his inner attachment to power was seen through. He was also persuaded to find a shadow lizard as his second soul ring.

The Shadow Lizard not only provided a very powerful soul skill, but also allowed the Nether Spirit Cat to truly gain the power of the Netherworld.

Zhu Zhuqing thought that she must repay Gu You for this kindness. So now, helping them find clues about Zhao Jie is naturally one of them.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's expression that said "I have made my decision, stop trying to persuade me", everyone looked at each other and had to agree to take Zhu Zhuqing along.

.........

"I don't know how my little brother is doing now."

Outside the Soul Beast Forest, Zhao Jie and Li Tong looked at the dark place from afar. Zhao Jie couldn't help but ask Li Tong beside him: "It's been a few days now, why haven't they come out yet?"

Li Tong was also helpless: "Brother Jie, you have asked this question three times, and I don't know."

Gah-gah-gah

Everyone looked up and saw a flock of birds suddenly taking off from the forest. This was a scene that had never appeared in the Dark Land in all these years.

You know, the soul beasts in the dark land are mainly dark in nature, which means there will be almost no big battles. Even if there are, it is most likely caused by the soul masters inside.

"Ok?"

Even though there was a checkpoint set up by the Spirit Hall and a distance between them, Zhao Jie always felt that there seemed to be some movement inside.

Zhao Jie involuntarily used his soul power to enhance his hearing and heard the hurried footsteps of people coming from inside the checkpoint.

"…Suspected soul beast riot, may develop into a beast tide!"

"Quick, send someone to notify the nearby Spirit Hall, we need reinforcements!"

"Where are the people inside? Why didn't anyone come out to inform us!?"

"All the personnel have been sent in, and we have no one now!"

"Where are the auxiliary spirit masters? Hurry up and call back the food and healing spirit masters who are on vacation!"

"Soul beast riot?!" Zhao Jie was shocked when he heard the key words. Under the Spirit Hall's management for many years, it was almost impossible for soul beast riots to occur in these small soul beast forests scattered everywhere.

Not to mention the dark land, how could there be soul beasts triggering a beast tide here where even thousand-year soul beasts are not allowed to appear?

But thinking back to the scenery he just saw, Zhao Jie couldn't guarantee that this was just a misunderstanding. He sternly ordered Li Tong: "A Tong, go back to town and inform all the brothers over 40 years old in the Taixun Group to come here for support."

"Other members are responsible for organizing the evacuation of civilians. The farther away the better."

Li Tong, who also heard the voice in the level, nodded. The younger brother behind them didn't know what was going on and was still looking up at the flock of birds flying in the sky.

Zhao Jie turned around and said to everyone: "Brothers, this is a critical moment. There may be a beast tide here."

Hearing Zhao Jie's words, everyone was shocked. Ordinary soul hunting was already full of dangers, and when the soul beasts rushed out of the forest during the beast tide, wouldn't that be even more terrifying?

"Everyone, be quiet!" Zhao Jie looked around and saw the frightened faces of his younger brothers. His expression was no longer so serious.

"Everyone, all members of our Taixun Group are born in this small town. This town is our home."

“And now, if those damned soul beasts break through the checkpoints, they will rush into the town, kill our families, destroy our land, and damage our houses.”

"All the people from the Spirit Hall are in the Spirit Beast Forest, and their whereabouts are unknown. Now, it is our turn to protect our town and our home!"

Brother Jie's words made everyone feel ashamed, ashamed that they had thought of abandoning the town and running away. This shame quickly turned into anger towards the soul beasts. Why did the soul beasts suddenly launch a beast tide when they could just live peacefully in the forest?

Zhao Jie pointed to his two youngest brothers and said, "You two, follow Atong back to the town, organize people to come to support, and let everyone take shelter quickly."

"Brother Jie, I want to stay and fight too!" "Me too!"

"Stop making trouble!" Zhao Jie stopped them, "If you stay, what will happen to everyone in the town? If we fail, will everyone be buried with us in the town?!"

"Hurry back and organize the people. We will hold out until the brothers come." After saying that, Zhao Jie looked at Li Tong and said, "A Tong, don't come over. Stay in the town. If we fail, you will be our last hope."

"If the town is gone, then it's gone. As long as people are still there, the town will eventually be rebuilt and more prosperous."

The others also pushed the three people towards the town, "Get lost, brat, now is the time for the old slickers."

"Young man, you are still a long way from here. Just watch us kill all the soul beasts."

"After we go back, ask the brothers who came to help to bring a few bottles of wine. Killing soul beasts without drinking doesn't feel exciting enough."

Listening to the various words coming from behind, the three people who left did not dare to look back, for fear that if they looked back, they would be unable to control their tears and stay. Li Tong ran towards the town without looking back, shouting: "Brother Jie, wait for the support of the brothers!"
