Now he saw that his second young lady couldn't even maintain the state of being possessed by the martial spirit, her body was shaking as if she was about to fall down at any time, but she was still urging herself with her eyes.
The guard said no more, gathered his soul power in his hand, and punched the human skin book. Cracks appeared on the face on the cover, as if it really exploded into pieces after wailing.
"No!!!!!"
With the help of the rock monster, he quickly broke free from Gu You, but he could only watch his precious "Book of Awakening" being smashed by a punch.
Gu You was held in midair by the rock monster's telekinesis, his body was tainted with malice, and black spots appeared. Three balls of ghost fire surrounded him, and the scorching temperature caused Gu You's exoskeleton to change color and crack.
But as the human skin book broke, the keystone that was originally emitting red light turned back into green light, the blood color in the rock monster's eyes dissipated, and it let out a shrill scream.
"Ha, the operation was successful."
The rock monster's telekinesis was released, and Gu You fell heavily to the ground. Although his whole body was in excruciating pain, he still had a bright smile on his face.
Gu You's current state is indeed a bit miserable. Although the curse on his body has faded after something happened to the rock monster, the pain from being squeezed by the telekinesis is very strong. Gu You even feels like being cast into a cement pile.
Most of the exoskeleton on his body was cracked, and the spikes on his back were broken off by the rock monster and stuck into his body. If it weren't for his strong defense and self-healing abilities, Gu You even suspected that he would die from the comminuted fractures and excessive bleeding all over his body.
It was a heavy price to pay, but it was all worth it. Looking at the distraught Klein, if Gu You hadn't been unable to move, he would have been ready to sneak attack him.
A small piece of blue silver grass was wrapped around Gu You's ankle, and vitality continued to flow into Gu You's body.
"What are you doing! My greatest work!"
Klein's legs went limp and he knelt on the ground. He had gone through so much trouble to find a century-old rock monster. He spent a year pretending to be the master of the Spirit Hall and pretending to be a disgusting "good guy" just to have time to slowly cultivate the rock monster.
Klein watched the rock monster screaming, but he could do nothing about it. He stood up shakily, holding onto the keystone with one hand.
The black spots instantly spread upwards along his hands. Without the human skin book as a buffer, the rock monster's curse would not give him face just because he was a fallen one.
Klein didn't care about the curse. He said to the rock monster with gritted teeth, "Now, listen to me!"
The black ten thousand year soul ring lit up, and Klein spewed dark yellow smoke from his mouth, all of which poured into the rock monster's body.
The fifth soul skill controls poison gas. Unlike the previous soul skills, this is a soul skill that can only be effective on one target at a time.
Paraside parasites are a type of soul beast that can parasitize a living being and manipulate it. This type of soul beast is not accepted by any soul beast because of its own bad abilities, and it is impossible for it to reach the ten thousand year level.
But in the great Holy Spirit Church, Klein accidentally obtained a ten-thousand-year soul bone during a massacre. He did not take it for granted, but chose to hand it over and received a reward from the higher-ups.
Among various rewards, the one chosen is the ten thousand year old Paraside parasite cultivated by a soul master who cultivates various insects in the Holy Spirit Church.
The effect of controlling poison gas is extremely simple, which is to control an individual. As one of the few people in the Holy Spirit Church who uses his brain, Klein found that the effect of this soul skill is far more restrictive than he imagined.
The most fundamental thing is the confrontation of mental power. If your mental power cannot overwhelm the target, not only will you be unable to control it, but you will also be killed by the mental power that is pursuing you.
Moreover, this domination is not permanent. After the domination effect fades, the dominated object will develop resistance, making it more difficult to dominate next time.
Logically speaking, Klein's mental power could not be a match for the ten thousand year old rock monster. But the rock monster was in a very bad state right now. Moreover, as a soul beast that had been accelerated to maturity, its mental power was not as good as that of other ten thousand year old rock monsters that had grown normally.
If Klein, a control-type soul master, wants to escape safely, he needs teammates.
He can't escape the pursuit of the agile attack soul master who is also a soul king by himself, so he needs the rock monster to buy time to escape.
Under the influence of the "Dominant Poison Gas", the rock monster slowly straightened and swayed, the green light on the keystone pattern turned yellow, and an uncomfortable laugh came out of its mouth again.
“Hehehe, just prepare to die here.” After saying these harsh words, Klein was ready to throw the keystone in his hand away and escape under the cover of the poison gas.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Klein discovered that the keystone in his hand no longer emitted yellow light, but turned into white light.
Klein slowly raised his head. The yellow-green facial features in the purple flames disappeared, and were replaced by human faces. Without exception, all of them glared at Klein.
Yunyan broke free from the wedgestone and crashed directly into Klein's head. Instantly, Klein screamed ten times louder than when his toes hit the cabinet. The spirit rings behind him flickered alternately, and all kinds of poisonous gas were spraying out as if they didn't need spirit power. Xiao Wu, who had rushed up to attack, had to help Gu You retreat.
"Ah Wei, it's Ah Wei!"
Others may not be able to recognize the faces in Yunyan, but Zhao Jie, who lives with Zhao Wei day and night, can see Zhao Wei's face among the many faces at a glance.
Looking at the figure dancing in the smoke, Zhao Jie took a deep breath, forced his body to start recovering its mobility in the fragrance, mobilized the last of his soul power, and activated his third soul skill "Slam" again.
This time, Klein was unable to mobilize his soul power to block the attack, and Zhao Jie's fangs pierced directly through Klein's chest.
With an incredible expression, Klein took his last breath.
-----------------
"Thanks for your hard work, little brother. Cheers!"
Zhao Jie laughed heartily, raised his glass and poured the wine into his mouth.
Gu You and others also raised their juice, and everyone enjoyed the delicious food amid laughter.
After paying a heavy price, everyone successfully stopped the beast tide.
Klein's death was not peaceful. Zhao Jie threw his body to the ground, and he died with his eyes open. All the surviving members of the Taixun Group stepped on his body.
But he shouldn't mind. Since he didn't say anything, I guess he agreed.
Under the leadership of Gu You and others, the remaining Spirit Hall spirit masters found all the missing spirit masters in the cave, and even mixed in with many ordinary people who were not spirit masters.
In this regard, Gu You speculated that Klein might have originally planned to use the souls of ordinary people as nutrients to ripen the rock monsters, but found that the effect was not as good as the souls of soul masters, so he finally chose the soul masters.
Judging from the rock monster's behavior after losing the human skin book, even if Klein was not stopped by himself in the end and successfully killed everyone's souls to feed the rock monster, his dream would probably not last long.
The rock monster itself was only a hundred-year-old soul beast, but it was forced to reach the level of ten thousand years by being fed with a large amount of painful and desperate souls.
This is no different from taking drugs to level up in the immortal cultivation world. The rock monster simply cannot digest and absorb so many souls in a short period of time. When there are too many human souls, it will eventually break free from the constraints of the human skin book and kill Klein.
However, these are all Gu You's speculations. After all, Gu You is not going to... at least not now, he is not going to read the human skin book, and he does not intend to play with souls. So whether it is true or false, there is no way to verify it.
After hearing Gu You say that it was the information left by Zhao Wei that gave them the opportunity to defeat Klein, and Gu You speculated on how Zhao Wei left the information under such conditions, everyone paid high tribute to this ordinary soul master.
After burying everyone, support from other places arrived, and Gu You and others breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, at Zhao Jie's invitation, they attended the dinner to celebrate everyone's survival.
"Speaking of which," Zhao Jie wiped his mouth and asked, "Where is the young lady in black? Why didn't she come with you guys?"
Seeing Zhao Jie asking about Zhu Zhuqing, Gu You said helplessly: "Brother Jie, she left a long time ago."
After killing Klein, Zhu Zhuqing's guards took her away, and Gu You and others were unable to say goodbye.
"That's such a pity." Zhao Jie shook his head. Actually, it wasn't that much of a pity. He and Zhu Zhuqing were not familiar with each other. He only asked this question for Gu You's sake.
After having a good meal and a drink, Zhao Jie took Gu You and his party to the reception room of the base. In addition to Li Tong, Rogers, whom he had only met once, was also there.
"Hello, my name is Rogers. I was sent by the Spirit Hall to discuss the issue of compensation. The acting hall master was supposed to come, but he is too busy now, so he specially arranged for me to come."
"?" Didn't I accept the mission of the Taixun Group? What does it have to do with the Spirit Hall?
Seeing the doubt on Gu You's face, Li Tong explained: "We and Spirit Hall both believe that we can win this time. A big reason for this is the contribution made by your team."
"Otherwise, with just the few of us, there's really no way we can defeat that Fallen Soul King." Rogers said with a wry smile. He was still troubled by the fact that his hall master was a Fallen. When he saw someone he didn't know, he would doubt whether the face was fake.
Shaking his head to get rid of the strange thoughts in his mind, Rogers said: "Based on your great contribution, we have decided that as long as we have and can do something, you can propose it. We will do our best to satisfy you."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally everyone's eyes stopped on Gu You.
"........."
Gu You thought for a moment and said, "We want that keystone, is that ok?"
"Keystone?" Zhao Jie and Rogers looked at each other. Rogers said, "Little brother, are you sure?"
After confirming that the rock monster was dead, the keystone was recovered by the Spirit Hall and sealed tightly. After other Spirit Halls came to support, they conducted a careful inspection. Finally, the conclusion was drawn:
"This is just a stone with veins. Its only characteristic is that it is hard. There is nothing inside it."
Rogers didn't want Guyou to use the reward on a nice-looking stone, and it wasn't very pretty.
He told Gu You the results of the examination and suggested: "Even if you choose gold soul coins or gold and silver treasures, it's fine, or you can ask us to help all of you hunt for a soul ring. This wish is also fine."
Gu You was somewhat tempted. The money he spent on soul guides was more than he had imagined. If he chose gold soul coins, he would be able to alleviate the financial pressure greatly.
If you choose a keystone, your research on it may yield some unexpected results, but the probability of such results is not 100%, and it is more likely that you will not find anything.
Should he choose the gold soul coin which has a 100% return, or the keystone which can make him rich or bankrupt? This made Gu You hesitate.
Snapped
Gu You turned around and saw that it was Tang San who patted him on the back.
Tang San said: "Don't think about it, we just want the keystone."
Seeing Gu You hesitate, Tang San knew that he was blinded by money. Tang San himself was a practical operator, and he knew very well how many gold soul coins were burned in order to separate a small magic circle that converted soul power into light.
Tang San swore that if Gu You's hesitation was not because he had too much money, he would smash the Clear Sky Hammer on his head. So he chose the keystone instead of Gu You.
He believed that since Gu You wanted to choose this thing, he must have his reasons. He also had no reason to let Gu You pay for his dream.
"…Thanks, Xiaosan."
"You're welcome, Xiaoyou."
Late at night, everyone who got the keystone returned to the inn.
Seeing Gu You taking out the stone and looking it over since returning to the room, Tang San couldn't help but express his curiosity and asked, "Xiao You, what is the use of this stone you want?"
Gu You threw the stone to Tang San, "Xiao San, look at the pattern on this stone, what do you think it is used for?"
Tang San was somewhat speechless. Among all the people he knew, only Gu You would ask such a question. For others, they didn't need to know the use of this at all. They just needed to know that this was the keystone of the rock monster.
Being able to analyze the possible power of a martial spirit from its name, and later proving it to be true. Tang San didn't know how to describe Gu You's brain.
Since he asked this, Tang San had no choice but to observe carefully.
No matter how he looked at it, Tang San felt that the patterns on the stone were just decorations, just for the sake of beauty. Even when he used the Purple Demon Eye to observe, he could not find anything special on the stone.
Gu You also knew that Tang San was unlikely to be able to analyze anything, so he took the stone and gently touched the pattern on it. He said calmly:
"Xiao San, don't you think that the pattern on it looks like some kind of magic array similar to a soul guide?"
-----------------
ps: This plot is finally over. I wanted to introduce Zhu Zhuqing, show the Holy Spirit Church, and depict the life of the supporting characters.
Don't take on a job that's not yours. If you don't have the skills, don't be so ambitious. Next time, I won't do such a thankless job.
It was in the outline that the final blow would be delivered by a supporting character, and after giving it some thought, I decided to just leave it that way.
Klein's control was successful. He controlled the rock monster's consciousness, but without the rock monster's consciousness to suppress it, the remaining human consciousness just ran out.
Finally I have points to exchange for a leave note. I will find a good day to take leave to play in the store competition. Please recommend and monthly votes~~~
