The Secret of the Temple
The Soul-melting Essence lasted for more than two hours before it gradually dissipated.
The entire temple was still very quiet …
"Let's go out," Luo Zheng said.
"But …" Ling Shuang felt a lingering fear when she thought of the black eyeball.
"Don't worry. That thing itself isn't powerful. It can kill people because of the Soul-melting Essence. Even if it doesn't die, it's not scary," Luo Zheng said.
If the Eye Demon was really powerful, they wouldn't be able to fight back while hiding in the depression.
Luo Zheng walked out of the depression first. Ling Shuang cautiously poked her head out and looked around.
There was a black mark on the wall. Luo Zheng followed the mark.
On the balcony on the other side of the thirteenth floor, there was a pale gold object.
Luo Zheng flipped around the corridor and jumped to the other side. When he reached the balcony, his pupils shrank. "A spider?"
Ling Shuang followed him. When she saw the object, her face lit up. "It's the Sky Weaver Spider! I understand now. The Sky Weaver Spider on the second floor must have been left behind by this thing! "
Ling Shuang had seen and heard of the Sky Weaver Spider before, so she could recognize it at a glance.
"Could it be that the thing that attacked us was the Sky Weaver Spider?" Ling Shuang asked.
"But the Sky Weaver Spider is already dead." Luo Zheng reached out and fiddled with it. The Sky Weaver Spider lay motionless on the ground. "What happened just now wasn't that simple …"
He flipped the Sky Weaver Spider over and examined it. There was a small hole between its head and abdomen. There were some faint black marks around the hole.
Just as Luo Zheng extended his hand towards the small hole, the dead spider suddenly retracted its claws, flipped over, and began to climb rapidly along the wall.
Clatter clatter clatter …
The sound of the Sky Weaver Spider climbing up the wall was exactly the same as before!
Ling Shuang shrank back in fright. Luo Zheng's eyes flashed sharply. He reached out and flicked his finger. A small soul arrow shot out.
"Crack!"
The soul arrow instantly nailed the Heavenweaver Spider to the wall.
Then, his hand slowly changed shape into a sharp knife. He peeled the Heavenweaver Spider off the wall and cut along its central axis from its head all the way to its abdomen.
"Zi …"
Black balls the size of pellets gushed out from the incisions.
"Ah! Again! " Seeing these little black balls, Ling Shuang's face changed again. It seemed like this encounter in the temple was something she would remember for the rest of her life.
"Zi …"
Those pellet-sized balls cracked open, revealing extremely small eyes.
These small eyes could also evoke fear, but they were much weaker than before. Luo Zheng didn't even need to close his eyes to resist.
"These are the offspring of those things. They haven't grown up yet, so they aren't dangerous …"
As Luo Zheng spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed at those small eyes. With one finger, the small eyes exploded and turned into a pool of black liquid.
There were still quite a few small eyes that came out of the Heavenweaver Spider's body, and even more of them surged in a certain direction along the wall.
These descendants of the Fear of Eye Demons would be a disaster if left alive, so Luo Zheng naturally didn't intend to let them go.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
In the blink of an eye, Luo Zheng had killed a large number of them.
However, another group of descendants of the Fear of Eye Demons moved along the wall to the back of the largest statue.
"What's behind that statue?"
Luo Zheng followed, flipping over the huge statue in one fell swoop. When he saw what was behind it, he was slightly taken aback.
Behind this statue, there were three small pillars. And on these pillars, there were three spheres enshrined. The first two spheres were demonic red glazed eyeballs, and the last one was a pure white sphere!
Seeing that the small eyes were about to drill into the glazed eyeballs, Luo Zheng made a move and wiped them all out, not leaving a single one behind.
"What's behind the statue …"
Ling Shuang followed him. When she saw the white ball, her body suddenly stiffened.
"The soul aura in this white ball is very strong," Luo Zheng said.
"This should be a soul crystal! What a huge soul crystal! From the looks of it … I'm afraid that countless people died in the Sunflower Temple, and the Sun Souls that were melted by the Soul Melting Light were all concentrated in this ball, "Ling Shuang said after thinking for a while.
"Does this soul crystal have the same effect as a Soul Pill?" Luo Zheng stared at the white ball and asked.
The aura he felt from this white ball was very similar to a Soul Pill. At a glance, it looked like a large Soul Pill.
If this thing had the same effect as a Soul Pill, then its value in Luo Zheng's heart was greatly reduced. Soul Pills could be traded, and they could also be bought with Divine Crystals.
"No …" Ling Shuang shook her head, her entire body becoming excited. "A Soul Pill can only restore the power of the soul and temporarily strengthen the Sun Soul, but a soul crystal can increase the upper limit of the Sun Soul. It can make our Sun Soul even stronger!"
When she said this, Luo Zheng's gaze became sharp.
When one's soul was weak, there were still many methods to strengthen it, but after stepping into the Sun Soul, it became difficult to cultivate the Sun Soul. Other than tempering himself in the Sea of True Intent, he didn't find any other methods to strengthen it.
If he could absorb this soul crystal, it might be able to bring his Sun Soul to a higher level!
"Since soul crystals are so useful, don't other creatures refine them?" Luo Zheng asked.
Some experts could kill other Sun Souls and refine them for their own use. For some ambitious existences, wouldn't it be easy to increase the power of their Sun Soul?
"Someone once did this, but later he went crazy." Ling Shuang shrugged her slender shoulders. "Other than the Soul Melting Light, it's very difficult to purify the Sun Soul with other methods. Forcibly absorbing the Sun Soul of another person will only result in the fusion of countless memories. If the memories of hundreds of people are mixed together, the final result can be imagined …"
"Understood." Luo Zheng nodded.
Although he had figured out the white ball of light, what were those two demonic red glazed eyeballs?
Even the knowledgeable Ling Shuang didn't know, let alone Luo Zheng. In the end, Luo Zheng could only ask 9527.
9527 smiled faintly and said, "Can't you see? It's all because of your good luck that you were able to survive this time. "
"What do you mean?" Luo Zheng asked.
"This is not a Sky Sunflower Temple at all. It's just a name that you humans made up. This temple originally belonged to the Eye Demons of Fear. That's why there are so many statues of Eye Demons on the walls …" 9527 said, "However, the temple has been ruined for so many years. The Eye Demons of Fear should have died out long ago. Perhaps some of the Eye Demons of Fear came back to life and controlled a Sky Weaver Spider that broke in. They then used the Spirit Melting Essence Light in the temple to harvest the Yang Soul so that they could reproduce rapidly and cultivate their offspring …"
The soul crystal was the "food" that the Eye Demons of Fear had painstakingly accumulated. If Luo Zheng and Ling Shuang hadn't come, this race would probably have revived after recuperating!
