The mountains and rivers stretched for thousands of miles, and the number of magical beasts on the ground was innumerable. This time, Salin and the others had learned their lesson. They chose a magical beast that looked to be around level-10. There shouldn't be any problems with such a weak magical beast, right?
The target was a crocodile-shaped magical beast. It was floating in the water, ready to ambush its prey.
In the sky, Dante cast a huge net that trapped the magical beast. Then, Salin saw a huge flow of energy emerge from the surface of the magical beast's body, mixing with the water element. The magical beast's entire body seemed to melt into the water and break free of the net.
The net itself was extremely sturdy. After many battles, the lightning mageweaths that Salin had refined on the spot had all disappeared.
That nameless net only had one rule: toughness.
Salin had tried many ways to understand the net's toughness, and had damaged many pieces of equipment, but still failed to break it down. Of course, he couldn't bear to use water flames to slowly refine it. If the net was destroyed, it wouldn't be worth it.
That crocodile-like magical beast was only level-10, but it had easily broken free of the net. It could only be said that the magical beasts in this dimension had special abilities. If they really relied on their physical strength, even a level-16 magical beast wouldn't be able to tear the net apart.
Having learned his lesson from last time, Salin prepared his lightning and icicles. He quickly shot them out and froze a section of the river.
After breaking free of the net, the crocodile-like magical beast had wanted to counterattack, but it was instantly frozen. It wanted to break free again, but unexpectedly, lightning flashed in the solid ice, and the magical beast's bones and tendons went limp.
Salin and the others panted. This was what a level-10 magical beast looked like.
The solid ice was cut off and placed on the shore. The magical beast hadn't been frozen to death, and it glared at Salin and the others in the solid ice. Salin looked at this strange creature through the solid ice.
Its three-meter-long tail made cracking sounds, and the feeling of its bones cracking caused the magical beast great pain. Salin gave up on the sealing skill. After all, he wasn't familiar with the rules of this dimension, and many things left him at a loss.
Some basic rules wouldn't change in most dimensions, such as the rules of power.
Salin and the others surrounded the magical beast to observe it, but didn't see anything wrong. As expected of a level-10. This magical beast's origin power was insignificant, but the power it released was quite powerful. Moreover, this magical beast's lifespan was clearly very long.
It was a pity that there were no humans in this world. Otherwise, he could find a way to communicate with them.
"Bing, you do it."
"Yes."
The Winged Skeleton raised its Nether God Scythe and slashed down. The ice and the magical beast were cut in half. It seemed like not all magical beasts had tough skin and bones. Salin was relieved.
The Winged Skeleton cut open the other half of the Magical Beast's corpse and dug out the Magical Core. In the end, there was still an irregular solid lump in the Magical Beast's head. It looked like the shell of half a peanut.
The energy inside this solid block was not boundless, but it was very condensed. Moreover, there were still a lot of runes inside this block. The natural runes were very orderly, emitting seven-colored rays of light.
"Looks like the magical beasts in this world don't have monster cores. I wonder how this thing compares to monster cores." Salin held the second solid object. This time, he didn't dare to casually use his Soul Strength to examine it.
"Master, this doesn't look very precious. Can I have a taste?"
"Hmph!" Neris interrupted Dante and summoned an Evil Demon. It was stronger than the solid object from the magical beast's brain. She threw it to the Evil Demon and said, "Eat it."
The Evil Demon obediently swallowed the dangerous object. The danger that Salin expected did not appear. Instead, the Evil Demon moaned comfortably, and its power increased rapidly.
This was a level-nine Evil Demon. Although it was loyal, its status was too low. So Neris used it as an experiment. In the Demonic Plane, this was a very normal thing. Low-level Evil Demons would not feel that there was anything wrong. Because once it succeeded, the Evil Demon tested would immediately rise in status, and even become a Great Evil Demon.
After this level-nine Evil Demon ate the strange lump, although its transformation speed was not fast enough, it grew into a Great Evil Demon within half a day. Salin and the rest took this opportunity to kill more than thirty magical beasts.
This advanced Great Evil Demon stabilized at level-twelve.
Neris smiled and patted the Great Evil Demon's shoulder. "You will follow me from now on. Wait for me to think about it and give you a new name."
"Thank you, Lord." The Great Evil Demon was overjoyed. In Neris's Evil Demon Army, a level-twelve Great Evil Demon could be a commander, but not a general.
"Don't thank me first. Eat this." Neris took another lump and threw it to the Great Evil Demon.
The Great Evil Demon swallowed the lump without hesitation and began to use its power to digest it.
The second experiment was also successful. After this Great Evil Demon ate the lump, although it did not advance into a Demon God, it grew to level-thirteen. In Neris's Evil Demon Army, a level-thirteen Great Evil Demon could already lead a complete army.
The leader of the Evil Demon Army had to be strong, not to kill enemies, but to suppress his subordinates.
If the leader was weak, the Evil Demons would not be convinced, and soon the army would have serious problems. This Great Evil Demon advanced again. Happy, it knelt at Neris's feet.
Neris thought of some of her subordinates who had died. Looking at this loyal Evil Demon, she still did not give him a third lump.
This thing would have problems sooner or later. This Evil Demon advanced twice in a row. It was quite lucky.
After sending the Evil Demon back to the Demon God Purgatory, Neris summoned the second Evil Demon and continued to use this lump for experiments. Dante watched with envy, but Salin did not allow him to eat it. He could not help it.
Dante cursed in the sky, not at Salin, but at Neris. But he was strong, so he did not dare to do anything to Neris. Nelis's Lightning Protection Skill had already been cultivated to the peak. His lightning attacks were almost ineffective against Neris. His other fighting methods could not compare to Neris.
Damned little Evil Demon, sooner or later, I will swallow you!
Dante's thoughts were cruel, but he had never thought of betraying Salin. His resentment was to compete with Neris for favor. And he was just thinking about it. He knew that Neris had an ability. As long as she ate the enemy, she could obtain the enemy's power.
If Neris took a fancy to him, maybe his master would give him to this Evil Demon. He was extremely fearful of Neris.
The experiment continued, and they killed more than a hundred Evil Beasts. On Neris's side, sixty Evil Demons had advanced into Great Evil Demons, and one of them had even evolved into a Demon God.
Salin felt that it was about time. He was very familiar with hunting these low-level Evil Beasts. When he could deal with high-level Evil Beasts, he let everyone take a break.
This time, the target was a level-16 Evil Beast.
Dante was still casting the net in the sky, and the three on the ground surrounded it. This second level-16 Evil Beast looked like a monkey. This monkey-like Evil Beast was unexpectedly strong. Salin and the others' net did not catch it, and the monkey burrowed out, then released a frenzied attack.
Hundreds of elemental attacks caused Salin and the others to lose their sense of direction. They fled for thousands of miles before the monkey finally gave up the chase.
The monkey left, and Salin and the others looked at each other and smiled bitterly. It was the first time they had encountered such a powerful thing since they had advanced to their current level. It was not that Salin could not kill this Evil Beast, but the price was too high, and it was not worth it. If they were injured here, they would have to spend a lot of time recuperating, and they did not know when they could leave.
But Salin had also calculated a pattern, which was that there was no pattern.
The relationship between Evil Beasts' combat power and level was not very accurate in this space. Some Evil Beasts below level-13 might be difficult to deal with, but level-16 Evil Beasts might be easily killed.
Fortunately, they had many people, so Salin simply sent the Thunder Warriors out to hunt. If they could not deal with it, they would sacrifice a few Thunder Warriors. At most, they would resurrect Dante. If they could deal with it, Salin and the others would attack it.
In a few days, Salin finally collected a large amount of Evil Beast materials, and began to calm down to study the Evil Beast's brain.
This kind of brain was hard, but it could not be cut or polished like a Magic Core. Once it was damaged, it would lose a lot of energy.
Salin simply used water flames to refine it. The runes in the Evil Beast's brain were gradually decomposed, and the energy was lost. Water flames extracted very little energy, so it was better to use the Magic Core in Salin's hands.
Salin did not dare to swallow this kind of Evil Beast's brain himself, but Nelis dared. After she transformed into a human, she began to swallow this strange thing continuously.
Nelis's human incarnation had always been a sloppy and half-baked Mage, but this time, her level increased rapidly. Salin was not worried. Nelis's Lologharo bloodline could absorb and even exceed level-18 power.
The worst result was that Nelis fell into a deep sleep, which was better than everyone being helpless here.
If Nelis's human incarnation could advance to level-18, then she could protect everyone and leave. Salin did not idle, but continued to analyze the use of the Evil Beast's Brain.
Salin was working hard to find a way to escape from the Ring of Heaven and Earth. In Holy Rock City, a sudden battle broke out.
Hundreds of Mages led the army to attack the four gates and began to search for the nobles in the city. These Mages came from the Golden Plains. It was not a big deal if it was just these Mages, but there were also many nobles in the city who colluded with them. They sent out their private troops, defeated the guards in the city, and surrounded the palace.
When the battle started, Prince Sephiroth brought his men to the palace. His palace could not withstand the enemy's attack at all. In Holy Rock City, only the palace was the safest place.
In the Mage Tower in the palace, Uncle Sephiroth sat opposite Rex, and the two of them were chatting leisurely.
"Uncle, this time, the disloyal people in the city should be eliminated, right?"
