[Third Update]
Salin destroyed the three artifact spirits without hesitation because he wanted to use the Moon of Thunder and Lightning to refine a real artifact spirit. This artifact spirit must have no memories of the past and no hatred towards him.
Otherwise, with the power of the Moon of Thunder and Lightning, he, as its master, would not be able to withstand the attacks for long.
Myers saw that Salin was very greedy, but she did not expect that after the three artifact spirits advanced to demigod, Salin would be willing to destroy them. Staying by Salin's side was just a trap set by Myers.
The longer Salin interacted with the ancient humans, the more he understood a principle. Perhaps he had the same ideals as these people, but it did not prevent them from killing him as cannon fodder.
It was useless for him to be so careful. Myers had arranged three artifact spirits by his side, and the Supreme General had added twenty-four contracts on him. If he did not handle it well, he could lose his life at any time.
Salin wanted to get rid of them in one fell swoop in the Giant's Graveyard, because here, even if Myers went outside, she would not be able to observe what was happening inside. As for the twenty-four Hero Spirits, Salin had already used the Thunder and Lightning magic pattern to protect the contracts. Even if they died, the contracts on his souls would not disappear.
The important thing was to wash away the memories of these souls and re-sign the contracts with him.
Others might not have this method, but Salin had high-level star puppets in his hands, which could prevent the souls of these Hero Spirits from completely dissipating.
Gifting him twenty-four Hero Spirits? This was not a small amount. If Salin wasted them all, he would be letting down the Supreme General.
Salin was willing to step into this double trap because his soul power was strong enough to suppress the twenty-four Hero Spirits and prevent them from sending any messages back.
By the time the Hero Spirits realized his goal, this place was already an independent space, even safer than the Abyss King City.
Salin was ruthless. If it were any other mage, they would not be as decisive as him in destroying the three demigod subordinates. This was something Salin had learned from his teacher. No matter how good a demigod was, it would be useless if they were disobedient.
These three guys had disguised themselves into three different personalities and never dealt with each other. They were too cunning. These three artifact spirits did not even use soul power to communicate. When they had to communicate, they used the stupidest method, which was writing in the air.
If it wasn't for the fact that his soul would fluctuate when he wrote, Salin wouldn't have known the background of these three fellows.
Within the Moon of Thunder and Lightning, countless lightning runes gently changed. The three Artifact Spirits' faces were ashen. The defenses they had barely managed to put up were being melted by these lightning runes. The three Artifact Spirits could only move closer to each other, each defending a side, hoping that they could withstand this attack.
After all, the exterior of the Moon of Thunder and Lightning was covered with lightning. If the restraints were broken, the three artifact spirits could still find a chance to escape. After all, he was a Demigod, and it wasn't impossible for him to escape even if he sacrificed the Divine Fragment.
Just as they were thinking about this, the three pieces of jade in their skulls underwent a miraculous change. Under the frequency of the thunder and lightning, the three pieces of broken jade moved closer to each other.
Salin was aghast. He heard a voice from the Moon of Thunder and Lightning. "Not bad, someone has successfully cultivated lightning magic!"
Salin retreated hastily. The Water Pattern Shield on the surface of his body was instantly covered with a dozen layers of lightning patterns.
"It's a pity that my level is too low. I can't even get interested in giving pointers. Forget it, this thing can only be used once. You're lucky. When you're free, come … find me! " The voice said a complicated set of coordinates. Salin's expression became much calmer. These coordinates seemed to be the coordinates of the crystal sphere.
In other words, the voice in the Moon of Thunder and Lightning didn't belong to anyone at all. It was just a bit of soul power left behind … a bit of what? Salin couldn't describe it. If a voice was left behind, it couldn't have said those words based on his own strength.
This method of controlling power far surpassed that of a God.
Who said that Gods could create life, but humans couldn't? In fact, this voice itself was made by a life.
The voice didn't say anything else and directly disappeared. Within the Moon of Thunder and Lightning, the three Artifact Spirits were horrified to find that they were being forcefully pulled together by the three pieces of broken jade. It wasn't over yet. The three Artifact Spirits were merging with each other.
The substance within the Moon of Thunder and Lightning was almost transparent energy. There was enough space in this energy. The lightning runes looked like huge crystallized pillars inside.
Rather than saying they were pillars, they were more like sculptures of the runes.
These crystallized runes were incomparably thick. Even the Tree of God that Salin had seen previously couldn't compare to them. Within the space, the lightning suddenly went berserk. The three Artifact Spirits were smashed into pieces by this sudden attack. The three pieces of broken jade in their bodies fused together and gathered the fragments of the three Artifact Spirits, allowing the lightning to attack them.
The lightning attacks became more and more berserk. At the core of the Moon of Thunder and Lightning was a small metal ball. This metal ball had simple runes on it, as well as the pattern of two eyes, one positive and the other negative.
The energy of the Moon of Thunder and Lightning was rapidly consumed. The Gods on the ground who were about to recover their vitality were suddenly forcefully absorbed by the Moon of Thunder and Lightning. Most of them went limp. A small number of Gods stood up and joined the ranks of attacking the twenty-four Hero Spirits.
The Universe Ring in Salin's hand suddenly exploded with a powerful force that Salin couldn't control. The two layers of the ring rotated, and the symbols on the top and bottom became the same. One of the combined spaces of the symbols opened. It was the space that contained the water of thunder.
The powerful suction sucked in the Moon of Thunder and Stars of Thunder and Lightning, including Salin's family badge.
Salin turned pale with fright, but no matter what, he couldn't take these three things out of the Universe Ring.
Another combined space of the symbols opened. The Gods who were fighting the Hero Spirits, those who had not awakened, flew into the air one by one and were sucked into this space.
Another space was opened. The crystallized Giants' bones and the Giants' heads all flew into this space.
Salin was stupefied. What was this Universe Ring!
In the area covered by the Moon of Thunder and Lightning, under the mountains of crystallized Giants' bones, something that surprised Salin appeared. It was the Elemental Lake.
If not for the Universe Ring's powerful absorption of power, these Elemental Lakes would not have appeared.
Salin finally understood the Glory King's design. Judging from the size of these Elemental Lakes, they should have been artificially arranged. Among the six major elements, only the Earth Elemental Lake did not exist. This was because those mountains were equivalent to the Earth Elemental Lakes.
Salin broke out in cold sweat. If not for the Universe Ring's power, absorbing even these Elemental Lakes, the balance of the entire space would have been broken after he collected the Moon of Thunder and Lightning. Then, the Elemental Lakes would have exploded, and the entire space would have been torn apart, turning into a huge space turbulence. Even if he had the God Sieve Ring, he would have died here.
This Giant's Graveyard did not seem like a place to resurrect friends, but a trap prepared for enemies!
Salin thought of the Moon of Thunder and Lightning in the sky. He had not heard that the Glory King had any lightning skills. This Moon of Thunder and Lightning did not match the layout of the entire Giant's Graveyard.
Salin was at a loss, but the twenty-four Hero Spirits were furious. They were forcibly brought in by Salin, and they were attacked by the Gods. Although Salin was also attacked, these Hero Spirits knew what Salin wanted to do.
Killing with a borrowed knife, this trick was very common in ancient times.
Salin silently released the Electric Serpent Dance. The twenty-four Hero Spirits were stunned, and they were enveloped in it. The weapons in the hands of each Hero Spirit were either shattered or had their attributes erased by the lightning.
Salin laughed. "The General is really generous, forcing me to sign these contracts. If not for the contracts, tell me, would I still be your opponent?"
If the twenty-four Hero Spirits were alive, they would have vomited blood by now. They were bound by the soul contract. Even if Salin wanted to kill them, they would not be able to fight back.
"I'll give you a way out." Salin took out the twenty-four puppets. These puppets were only level fourteen, but it did not matter. Salin had other uses for puppets above level fifteen. No matter how high the levels of these Hero Spirits were, Salin did not care.
Since he did not have to subdue them, he could give them extremely low conditions. If these Hero Spirits did not know what was good for them, he did not mind killing them all.
"Sorry." At this time, a leader appeared among the twenty-four Hero Spirits. This was the General's arrangement. This person was also a powerful martial arts master.
"What a pity." Salin pointed a finger at the martial arts master's head. Affected by the contract, the martial arts master's speed was much slower. No matter how fast he was, he could not compare to the Comet Flash.
His head exploded like a living person. Brain matter splattered everywhere.
The expressions of the other twenty-three Hero Spirits changed drastically. Salin's skill had killed their leader instantly. There was no chance of revival. The martial arts master's soul was destroyed by some unknown power, and it was very thorough.
Salin withdrew his Star Puppet. "I'm also sorry. I've changed my mind. You are no longer the warriors I need." As Salin spoke, the thunder dragon in the center of the magic booster appeared and shot out lightning and ice spikes.
The twenty-three Hero Spirits died unjustly. They did not understand why Salin suddenly changed his mind.
For the General, they had already given up hope of revival. Now they could not even be Hero Spirits. Why?
The reason was simple. Salin really did not need them anymore. Salin wanted powerful subordinates, not people who could betray him at any time. He had long wanted to kill them. Because he was worried that the General and the others would find out, he had left a way out.
It was just that the Divine Race captured by the Cosmos Ring had their memories erased by an unknown force after entering a space, turning them into puppets. However, the Cosmos Ring didn't take their bodies. Salin could use the bodies of these Divine Race to refine more powerful puppets at any time.
Level-15 puppets were Salin's current limit. But what if he advanced in the future? These Protoss corpses were enough for him to refine to Level-18.
Why would he still need these Hero Spirits? Salin thought of the General's methods. He was afraid that the Hero Spirits' bodies contained a method to perish together, so he killed their leader.
