Chapter 194

As they went deeper, more and more soul birds gathered around. Li Ran attacked crazily, and Guo Shier followed behind to collect them crazily. The two of them cooperated well and soon came to the ground.

Below them was an open space covering an area of more than 100,000 square kilometers. No one knew how it was formed, but it was densely packed with soul beasts. This time, even Li Ran was a little scared. He said, "Damn it, there are too many of them... We can't fight them at all!"

Guo Shi 'er couldn't help but shiver at the sight of it. He said, "There are at least a million... millions of soul beasts. Let's leave!"

Zhen Wuji rushed to the side of the two of them and looked down. He said in horror, "We can't go down... there are too many! It's too scary! "

Li Ran frowned. The feeling of not being able to eat them was really bad. At a glance, he found dozens of high-level soul beasts, all of which were sacrifices he needed.

Guo Shier said, "As long as the soul beasts can't fly, we can selectively collect them, provided that... we can smash them."

Zhen Wuji said, "The soul birds above are coming down!"

The overwhelming number of soul birds swooped down from above. Li Ran's expression changed slightly. He said, "Get on my altar!" Guo Shier immediately put the altar on his head and flew to Li Ran's altar. Zhen Wuji also flew up without hesitation.

Li Ran said, "Let's destroy the soul birds above first!"

There was still space in the sky to teleport, but there were no gaps on the ground. It was densely packed with soul beasts, all lying on the ground and rarely moving. However, Guo Shier knew that as long as one of the soul beasts was touched, all the soul beasts would riot.

Li Ran went toward the soul birds. Guo Shier looked back and saw a huge bulge on the ground. He couldn't help but ask, "What is that?"

Zhen Wuji asked, "What is that?"

Guo Shier asked, "What kind of stone is that? Why is it green … "Under the illumination of the runes on Li Ran's altar, that huge protruding rock emitted a trace of enchanting green.

Li Ran lowered his head to take a look, and couldn't help but cry out involuntarily, "Eh, Soul Nurturing Stone? It's actually a Soul Nurturing Stone! "

Guo Shier asked, "What does it have to do with the Soul Wood?"

Zhen Wuji also reacted and said in surprise, "Soul Wood is good for professionals, but Soul Stone is good for offerings. This thing is extremely rare …" Before he could finish, Li Ran had already collided with the bird.

There was a long howl. That was Guo Shier's roar. Instantly, the entire flock of spirit birds slowed down. Li Ran also took the opportunity to attack. "Heaven's Burial!"

Countless soul birds were turned into balls of soul under this move, and the soul birds that were too close to the ball of soul directly vanished into thin air. Even their souls couldn't be preserved, and they were completely turned into nothingness. Guo Shier's heart ached, "What a pity …" He immediately flew out of Li Ran's altar, released Gusirius's tentacles, and began another round of collection.

After several consecutive Heaven's Burial, Guo Shier and Li Ran cooperated and collected hundreds of thousands of Soul Beads. The entire flock of spirit birds became sparse. The nearby spirit birds had all been swept clean. As for the spirit birds in the distance, neither Li Ran nor Guo Shier wanted to provoke them.

There were more than a million spirit birds in the sky, and Li Ran's group definitely couldn't clean them all. After using Heaven's Burial several times in a row, Li Ran also felt exhausted. He swallowed a large number of Soul Beads to recover his soul force.

Zhen Wuji surrounded Li Ran, guarding him. At this time, the flying spirit beasts were afraid of Li Ran, and very few of them dared to continue attacking.

The sky temporarily quieted down. Guo Shier came to Li Ran's altar and began to count the spoils.

In such a short time, Guo Shier collected hundreds of thousands of Soul Beads. The number was so large that he was a little numb. He directly took out a large talisman bag and threw one bag to Li Ran and Zhen Wuji. He smiled and said, "Here's your bonus …"

Li Ran knew that Guo Shier's harvest this time was huge. Zhen Wuji looked at the talisman bag and couldn't help showing a shocked expression. It wasn't that he had never seen Soul Beads before, but this was the first time he received such a large number of Soul Beads. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Amazing!" He took out thousands of Soul Beads and immediately turned them into sacrificial Soul Beasts. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of sacrificial items were used to repair the altar and sacrificial treasures.

Guo Shier smiled and said, "The Soul Beasts on the ground are the real treasures. I saw countless high level Aberration Talisman Beasts' souls. Those things are very rare."

Li Ran said, "The Soul Nurturing Stone I saw just now was very big. I wonder how many there are. Hehe, this time's harvest is really good. Not only did we find Soul Nurturing Wood, we even found Soul Nurturing Stone … we'll go collect them in a bit, I hope we can get a little more."

Guo Shier silently looked through his inherited memories and quickly found the records about Soul Nurturing Stone.

Soul Nurturing Stone was not as helpful to Professionists as Soul Nurturing Wood, but it was very helpful to Soul Beasts. It could condense a soul and promote it to take form. If it was collected by a Professionist, it could be refined into a Soul Nurturing Card and the soul could be stored in it. It was an extremely rare precious jade stone, a top grade Beast Spirit Talisman.

Guo Shier thought for a while and quietly discussed with A Handsome Old Man, "If we can collect enough Soul Nurturing Stone and combine it with Soul Nurturing Wood, we should be able to refine a Cauldron."

A Handsome Old Man asked curiously, "Cauldron? What is that? " Although this world was similar to his previous world, even the language was not much different, there was no concept of a cauldron.

Guo Shier explained in detail, and A Handsome Old Man immediately understood. He said, "I understand, it's similar to Gumelion. Hmm, this shape … is very unique. Let me think about how to start refining it."

Li Ran had already recovered, he said, "Okay, let's go down and clear the Soul Beasts around the Soul Nurturing Stone first."

Guo Shier gradually understood why Li Ran's strength was so powerful here. It was because the Soul Beasts here were different from the mutated Rune Beasts that had a body. With Li Ran's strength that surpassed the ninth layer Sacrificial Altar, his soul force was vast and boundless. No matter how many Soul Beasts there were, they could not pose any real threat to him. No wonder he was hesitant at the beginning, but once he started killing, he quickly became full of confidence.

Li Ran cleared the Soul Beasts around the Soul Nurturing Stone in just a moment. This was also thanks to Gusirius's crazy collection speed. Otherwise, even if the Soul Beasts were destroyed, they would quickly reform.

Collecting the Soul Nurturing Stone was also Guo Shier's task. He was the weakest and could not kill the Soul Beasts, but whether it was collecting Soul Beasts or excavating the Soul Nurturing Stone, he was a top notch expert. Li Ran was full of praise for this. Bringing Guo Shier along was not a burden at all, he was a great help.

Soon, Guo Shier discovered a secret. He said in pleasant surprise, "This is a Soul Nurturing Stone mine! There are more below! "

Li Ran looked at the Soul Beasts that were surging over, he smiled and said, "Dig down!"

Guo Shier said, "A Handsome Old Man, it's up to you now!"

A Handsome Old Man did not decline and immediately commanded Gusirius to dig down. Gusirius's tentacles could be soft or hard. At this time, Gusirius's tentacles were like countless digging drills, frantically digging into the ground. In the blink of an eye, a very big hole was dug. Guo Shier said, "Big brother Li Ran, you guys guard the hole, I will go down and excavate the Soul Nurturing Stone."

This mine was very big. Soon, A Handsome Old Man said, "There is not enough space to store talismans. Boy, I will use a large talisman bag to store the Soul Nurturing Stone …" Fortunately, Guo Shier had swept through many ancient clans and plundered a lot of materials and resources. Among them, there were countless talisman bags.

Guo Shier said, "First collect the ore, then slowly refine it later. I want to refine a sacrificial artifact, so I need a lot of Soul Nurturing Stone. Hehe, this sacrificial artifact … should be very powerful."

A Handsome Old Man asked, "What sacrificial artifact?"

Guo Shier said, "It is the cauldron that I mentioned. It can raise a lot of Soul Beasts. Hehe, once we fight, I will directly release the Soul Beasts. One or two of them might not be afraid, but releasing hundreds or thousands of Soul Beasts in one breath, I think any expert would have a headache."

A Handsome Old Man agreed, "Not bad, not bad, this idea is not bad. After you advance, we will start refining … the cauldron you mentioned." Although he had a little idea in his heart, he did not know how to start. Presumably, Guo Shier already had a mature idea, so he did not ask any more questions.

He commanded Gusirius to continue digging. A large amount of ore was collected into the altar. A Handsome Old Man was very busy. One after another, the talisman bags were filled. Fortunately, there were a lot of talisman bags, enough for him to use.

Li Ran and Zhen Wuji also entered the mine. They guarded the passage and killed every Soul Beast that came. The outer layer of the mine was gradually enlarged by the Soul Beasts. The two slowly retreated. At this time, they did not need to fight with their lives on the line. They only needed to protect the mine from collapsing. The two casually chatted, and from time to time, they would kill a Soul Beast that squeezed into the mine.

Li Ran laughed, "Zhen Wuji, have you collected enough sacrificial artifacts?"

Zhen Wuji sighed, "Enough sacrificial artifacts for me to advance beyond the ninth layer. Unfortunately … I still cannot grasp how to advance beyond the ninth layer. There is no inheritance for this." He really wanted to get pointers from Li Ran, but in his heart, he also understood that no one would be willing to pass on this kind of precious experience to others.

Li Ran seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you how to advance. It's just that advancing from the ninth layer of the altar depends more on luck and opportunities. It cannot be forced."

Zhen Wuji had already guessed it. He smiled bitterly, "This barrier is very hard to pass. I once spent dozens of years wandering outside but did not obtain anything. After this, I will try again." He was clearly not confident. This barrier was not something that could be reached through inheritance and cultivation.

Li Ran said, "You should focus on the soul aspect … whether it is useful or not depends on each person's luck."

Zhen Wuji shook his head, "It is already very difficult for me to increase my soul force. Hehe, it is too difficult. There is no way to solve it."

Li Ran suddenly realized, but he did not say anything. He thought of the two soul scriptures. Zhen Wuji did not have such scriptures, so it was to be expected that his soul could not increase. If he wanted to continue advancing, it would indeed be very difficult.

While the two were chatting and collecting some soul beasts, Guo Shier found something good. It was a ten-meter-wide, two-meter-tall crystal of the Soul Nurturing Stone. Because it was extremely hard, Gusirius's tentacles had to grab all the ores in the surroundings before it was revealed. This made Guo Shier and A Handsome Old Man very happy.

The two stopped next to the crystal of the Soul Nurturing Stone. Guo Shier said, "This … this is definitely a good thing …"

A Handsome Old Man said, "Let the altar come closer, let me take a look!"

Guo Shier leaned the altar against the crystal of the Soul Nurturing Stone. A Handsome Old Man poked his head out and carefully looked at it. After a while, he said, "This thing can be used directly after being purified. This is the best crystal of the Soul Nurturing Stone. It can be used to refine the cauldron's basic form … it can't be better."

Guo Shier said, "But … there is no space to hide the talismans …"

The handsome old man chuckled and said, "I have a good idea!"
