Part 3.
Salin still did not retreat. He pointed his magic staff, and a four-meter-tall ice wall instantly rose from the ground. In the Ice Purgatory, Salin's water magic was very powerful. The level-8 spell directly blocked the ancient martialist's footsteps. The ancient martialist's punch at Nelis bombarded the ice wall, only creating a small hole. His arm was embedded in the ice wall.
Ice Strike!
Six huge blocks of ice appeared and smashed toward the ancient martialist from all directions. The ancient martialist's head was hit by the ice. The spear in his helmet trembled and crushed the skull of the ancient martialist.
The ancient martialist was sealed in ice. The blood armor on his body trembled violently again. In Salin's hand, the huge ice bomb had condensed and quickly vaporized. When the ice bomb flew out, the surface of the vaporized ice bomb was already burning with orange flames.
The ancient martialist's head twisted habitually and looked in Salin's direction. However, Nelis's spear was still stuck in his helmet. The spear was frozen by Ice Strike. The ancient martialist's neck could be twisted, but the spear could not.
With this twist, the neck bone of the ancient martialist broke with a crack.
After tens of thousands of years of waiting, the physique of these ancient martialists had deteriorated too much when they woke up again. Their physical strength was far inferior to the Gold Sword Sages, and even worse than the Silver Sword Sages. The powerful force broke the ancient martialist's neck bone all the way down, and cracks appeared on his entire spine.
Salin suddenly retreated. He had discovered the secret of the ancient martialist, which was the trace of life in the bones.
Bone Forging was a type of elemental alchemy. It was also the most common method in Life Alchemy.
Life Alchemy was a forbidden magic. Salin had only seen it on Inpos. He had never met any other Elemental Mage who dared to try it.
Mage Yun Liu used Life Alchemy to seize control of the ancient martialist's body. However, this Life Alchemy completely dissipated the soul of the ancient martialist. It was impossible to even refine it into an Undead.
When a martial artist reached Level Nine, their battle memories were not only stored in the brain, but also in the body. Most of the time, a Level Nine martial artist could fight the enemy without thinking.
Magicians understood this phenomenon very well, so they wouldn't stop attacking just because a Rank Nine powerhouse's vital points were injured, and they wouldn't use the same methods they used to deal with ordinary warriors to deal with a Rank Nine warrior.
Since Salin knew that these level-9 ancient martialists were controlled by the Bone Refining Technique, there was no need to continue experimenting. Next, he would focus on researching the Tainted Blood Armor.
The souls of the ancient warriors sealed in the cabins of the desolate ancient battleships had not dissipated yet. Otherwise, the Bone Refining Technique would not have allowed these ancient warriors to maintain their combat strength. Their souls had already melted into the bones of the ancient warriors, and they could no longer reform. They could not even refine their soul flames and turn them into departed spirits.
The ancient martialist was completely dead. If it was in the past, Salin would have admired Wizard Yun Liu's wonderful idea, but now that he had grasped the Rule of Eternal Control, he was furious at Wizard Yun Liu's misuse of natural resources.
If he didn't use the Bone Refining Technique to destroy the remnant souls of the ancient warriors, these ancient soldiers would be able to maintain a stronger combat strength, and they would be worthy of being Rank Nine powerhouses.
Because of their low intelligence, these ancient warriors' combat strength was similar to that of Rank Nine magic beasts.
In many cabins of the desolate ancient battleships, there were soldiers in deep sleep. As long as Salin had the time, he could use Eternal Control to refine their souls one by one, preserving a trace of the Rule of Control and Thunder and Lightning Rule in the depths of the ancient warriors' souls. These ancient warriors would then truly reach the strength of a Rank Nine powerhouse.
Apart from the degradation of the bones in these warriors' bodies due to the passage of time, which weakened their physical strength, the power of the ancient warriors could be reproduced almost perfectly.
This was a force that could sweep across the Myers Continent. Alchemy City, Holy Rock City, they would all end up in tragedy under the attack of tens of thousands of Rank Nine powerhouses.
Although Salin had this idea, he was still very calm. The Rule of Eternal Control was also related to his own level. He was currently at Rank Eight, and there was a limit to the number of Rank Nine powerhouses he could control.
Because only Nelis still had two pieces of broken jade, if Salin wanted to control more powerhouses, he could only refine this kind of equipment that could be integrated into the soul.
He could not replicate a perfect broken jade, and could only imitate one percent of its power. In this case, the number of Rank Nine powerhouses he could control was very limited.
Who was the one controlling the Three Sovereigns? To be able to refine such equipment that he could not replicate, he was probably much stronger than Joey.
"Master!" Nelis saw Salin easily make a Rank Nine ancient warrior lose its ability to fight and break its bones. She was extremely impressed by Salin.
Master's wisdom was much stronger than those magical beasts.
A bad analogy popped up in Nelis's mind, but her analysis was reasonable. The wisdom of human beings could narrow the gap between levels. Salin was a genuine level-eight Magic Shooter, and he was controlling a warrior with level-nine strength. The battle this time relied on Salin's powerful calculation and observation skills.
"Alright, let's get rid of it." Salin sighed. The souls of these five ancient warriors had been scattered by the Bone Refining Technique, and there was no possibility of resurrection. If he controlled these ancient warriors, they would at least have a chance to become undead.
The solid ice shattered, and the Rank Six Ice Strike was broken by the ancient warrior, turning into broken ice on the ground. The ancient warrior's neck and spine were also cracked, and he could no longer fight.
Nelis went up and pulled out the spear from the ancient warrior's head. She threw the spear on the ground, and Nelis's hands flew up and down, peeling off the Filthy Blood Armor. The Filthy Blood Armor had been destroyed, but Nelis did not want to waste the corpse. She tore the ancient warrior's corpse into pieces and let the Ice Purgatory absorb it.
As for the Filthy Blood Armor, Nelis threw it into the Blood Purgatory that was being repaired.
Now, in Nelis's second movement of Purgatory, five purgatories were already being repaired. The Darkness Purgatory was about to be repaired, and the Ice Purgatory was nearly one-third repaired. As for the Flame Purgatory, the Blood Purgatory, and the Storm Purgatory, they were all about one percent repaired.
Nelis dealt with the ancient warrior's corpse and brought Sarlin out of the 12 movements of Purgatory.
Sarlin suddenly said, "Nelis, there's a piece of broken jade in the soul fire of Banchagana and Diabinus. Give it to me."
"Ah! Master … "
"You don't have it? Then forget it. "
"Yes, yes!" Nelis helplessly took out two pieces of broken jade and handed them to Sarlin. She did not understand this thing, but she knew that it was very powerful. Sarlin wanted it, but she could not lie and say that she did not have it. This was because of the soul contract. If she lied to Sarlin, Sarlin would know.
Nelis did not want to lose Sarlin's trust.
Sarlin laughed heartily and said, "Nelis, these little things are useless to you. I'll study them for a while, and I can control the ancient warriors on the Desolate Ancient Battleship."
"Really? Master! "
"Of course, would I lie to you?"
"Yes!"
"Then, not this time." Sarlin expressed helplessness at Nelis's straightforwardness. In the beginning, signing a soul contract with Nelis was a lie. Back then, Sarlin's level was pitifully low, and Nelis could turn him into food with just a few punches and kicks. But Sarlin very cunningly tricked Nelis and made her sign a soul contract.
"Master, even if you still lie to me, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm yours." Nelis blinked her eyes and looked at Sarlin with a charming expression.
"I think you … Go, go with the Winged Skeleton and get rid of the remaining ancient warriors!" Sarlin could not scold Nelis for acting coquettishly. Of course, he could not accept it. Nelis's form was very scary. Besides, it was a joke for a Mage to have feelings for their own contracted creature.
"Alright, I'll go find that dead skeleton. Master, do what you need to do." Nelis giggled and walked out of her cabin.
Salin was not in the mood to talk to Neris about these messy things. He simply took out a huge black crystal from Neris' room, cut it into jade-sized cubes with water, and began to forge Eternal Control equipment.
Outside the cabin, the five mechanical undead followed Nelis. Nelis stopped and turned back, saying, "If you continue to follow me, I'll …"
"What can you do? We are all Master's contracted creatures, don't think that I … "The mechanical undead's words came out of the doppelganger's mouth, but before it could finish, Neris punched the mechanical undead doppelganger's chest. Neris's nails bounced off, and she grabbed the mechanical undead doppelganger's soul fire, pulling it out of its body.
The pale golden Soul Fire was very thin, so Nelis opened her mouth and swallowed it into her stomach. The mechanical undead clone beside her was furious. Four clones pounced forward and were about to besiege Nelis.
"Preposterous!" Sarlin's voice came from the cabin. In the depths of the soul fire of the four mechanical undead clones, blue electric currents flickered, and the mechanical undead clones fell to the ground with a loud bang. The soul fire dissipated.
"Huan Ya, if you have any more ideas about Nelis, I'll make your soul fire completely dissipate. At most, I'll leave the Ancient Desolate Battleship here and summon 100,000 demons to control it. Don't think that I can't leave you! "
"Thank you, Master." Nelis stretched out her hand and threw the five clones into the 12 Movements of Purgatory, using the undead metal materials to repair her equipment.
The mechanical undead was so angry that its soul fire trembled, but it did not dare to say anything disrespectful. It did not expect Sarlin to protect Nelis so much that he killed its four clones without asking who was right or wrong.
If one day …
The mechanical undead stopped its bad thoughts in time, because in the middle of the soul fire, the broken jade was spinning violently, and blue electric currents appeared again.
"God of Light, I'll f * ck you!" The mechanical undead cursed out a curse from an unknown dimension. It angrily ordered all the clones on the Dragon Skeleton Battleship to return to the Wing Skeleton and wait for orders.
