Rumble …
Two humanoid creatures in leather robes with octopus heads quietly landed at the outermost periphery of the lost city. They saw that the thunderclouds above the city not far away had begun to dissipate, and the sound of thunder was slowly becoming sparse.
One of them had eight slippery purple-black tentacles on his face dancing gently as he spoke to his companion through telepathy.
"Hahaha, Musani, our luck today is really good.
Not long after the world changed, we encountered a Transcendent from the material world and … He hasn't completed his exploration and is still in an open beacon anchorage. "
As he spoke, his body under the gray robe twisted in the wind as if it had no bones. It was obvious that he could not suppress the excitement in his heart.
The Transcendent who had just entered the spirit world must have just obtained the corresponding qualifications. Generally, they were level two official professions. The two of them had a high chance of winning if they were caught off guard.
Perhaps the beacon anchorage that could only resonate with certain people was not an opportunity for others. It might even be a fatal risk.
However, for the Transcendent and Wizards who could explore the spirit world, their souls were already the most precious treasures in the eyes of others.
Especially in the spirit world where there was no physical protection, as long as they could capture the other party's soul, wouldn't they be able to get anything they wanted?
Whether it was extortion in exchange for the resources and wealth of the material world, or using the Transcendent's soul origin as a commodity to trade with powerful spirit world creatures, they would be able to obtain generous returns.
The spirit world was the same as the lower realms. The souls of humans, especially powerful Transcendent, were hard currencies like gold in the material world!
This was also the usual practice of the "Creepy Dream Sect" when they met their "fellow countrymen" in the material world in the spirit world.
If they did not open for three years, they would eat for three years!
As new official members, they could only watch the old members of the sect eat meat, and they could not even drink a mouthful of soup.
They did not expect that they would be favored by the great "Source of Nightmares" when they came out to patrol not long after the spirit world had changed again. They easily found high-quality prey.
"Akemen, you're right. However, such a city that has obviously not been fully explored means the same danger to us.
If we go deep into a place where there is a strong spiritual resonance with the other party, it will be equivalent to us fighting in an away game. Even if it's two against one, we can't let our guard down. "
Sorcerers who had the ability to explore the Spirit World, as well as a few Extraordinaires of other professions, should be able to show their most "real" appearance in the Spirit World, a world that could even manifest the essence of the soul.
But now, it was almost impossible to tell the difference between the two just by looking at their appearances. It was as if they were made from the same mold.
However, although their appearances were similar, the octopus named Mousani beside them was obviously calmer than his companion.
"Holy 'Source of Nightmares', please listen to the call of your loyal servant …"
The tentacles surrounding the mouth wriggled rhythmically and extended into the void. The tip of the tentacles gradually disappeared as if it had entered another dimension and gently touched something there.
[Divine Art — Spiritual Divination]
It was much more convenient to perform divination on high-level existences in the Spiritual Realm than in the material world. The space of arbitrary laws was meaningless here, and it could be done easily without the use of the corresponding ritual.
"Got it, follow me!"
A moment later, Mousani, who had received a response, pulled his companion to another direction in the city.
That was the core building complex of the scattered temples, arenas, astronomical observatory, military barracks, Sun Palace, and so on in the outermost periphery of the lost city of Posedia. It was also a dangerous area that Elvin had temporarily abandoned during his initial investigation.
.....
The thunder in the sky gradually disappeared.
The hissing of the black insects in the city had also completely become a thing of the past.
"Huff … Huff …"
Elvin, who was in a slightly sorry state, used his sword to support himself. Even with his body, he couldn't help but squat on the ground and pant.
The last monster that used the "Thunder Drum" clearly represented the ultimate mystery of the Rapid Thunder Swordsmanship. It was also a powerful technique that could only be used by at least Grade 3 and above.
Even though Elvin had used a trick.
But thunder was a power that represented the pinnacle even in the Elemental School, which was known for its offensive power. How could it be easy to deal with?
At the last moment, the monster instinctively released a thunderbolt. If not for the Soul Equipment "Topaz Necklace" passed down from the "Activation School" that blocked Elvin's attack, he would have been half-crippled even if he didn't die.
If his injuries were too severe, it would definitely slow down the exploration of the Spirit World and the construction of the privateer fleet in the material world.
"But, it's all worth it!"
This was because he had already collected all of the [Rapid Thunder Swordsmanship] that belonged to the Three-eyed Man.
After briefly reading the introduction of the swordsmanship, the smile on Elvin's face never faded.
[Profound Meaning — Instant Flash] came from the lightning spear. It represented the ultimate reaction, attack, and movement speed.
[Profound Meaning — Mercury Thunder] came from the black heavy hammer. It represented the destructive power of explosive thunder.
[Profound Meaning — Thunder Breathing] came from the chain scepter. It listened to the pulse of the world, adjusted one's breathing and senses with the world, and swung the longsword in half. It was even more domineering than the "Steel Cutting" realm.
[Profound Meaning — Thunder God's Battle Form] came from the Thunder Drum. The ultimate mystery … Strong, very strong, very strong.
Just from the personal experience just now, Elvin knew that it was much stronger than the [White Sail Swordsmanship] that he was best at.
Just as he stood up and couldn't wait to test out his new swordsmanship …
"Friend, it seems like you're not in a good condition. Hehe …"
Out of the blue.
The voice seemed to come directly from the bottom of his heart. When Elvin heard it, he felt like a sticky and cold slug crawling through his eardrums. It was so disgusting that he wanted to vomit blood.
When he activated [Witchcraft — White Bird], in order to maximize the enhancement, he absorbed almost all of the seagulls that he brought into the Spirit World into his body.
But he didn't realize that there was an intruder in his city in time!
However, the enemy this time was obviously not a brainless monster like the black worm that acted on instinct. He didn't take the initiative to speak so that he could be prepared.
When he spoke to attract his attention, the attack had already followed.
[Divine Spell — Delusional Voice]
Effect: With the Heart of Darkness as the medium and sound as the medium, it ignores physical defense and corrupts and curses the target from its spiritual nature.
Before Elvin could see the enemy's figure or make any effective defense, the strange laughter had already turned into waves of "poison" that poured into the depths of his heart.
"Ugh …"
Sizzle … Sizzle …
On the outside, Elvin's originally transparent and clean white body of light seemed to be corroded. Gradually, black spots appeared, and even quickly transformed into disgusting black and red sarcomas that were constantly squirming.
In the blink of an eye.
Elvin seemed to have exhausted all of his strength in the battle just now. Now, facing the sudden vicious attack, he had no strength to resist at all.
"Huff … Huff …"
He lay on the ground as if he was terminally ill. He gasped desperately like a tuberculosis ghost. After a few breaths, his coughs had become so intense that it sounded like he was going to cough out his heart and lungs.
With every cough, drops of black mucus splashed out. It even covered his mouth and nose. He looked extremely pathetic.
"Ahahaha, as expected of a rookie who has just entered the Spirit World. He was dealt with so easily! In the Spirit World, the most holy 'Source of Nightmares' is indeed invincible! "
Amidst the gooey laughter.
A hundred meters away, ripples spread out in the air. The two humanoid creatures with octopus heads and grayish-white priest robes slowly walked out.
Clearly, after being in the business of robbing for a long time, these Creepy Dream disciples had their own trump cards. They might not be able to deal with the various monsters in the Spirit World, but they were very effective against these "fellow countrymen" from the material world.
Seeing Elvin completely lose his resistance, the two Creepy Dream disciples slowly let down their guard. They commented on him as if they were looking at a piece of fat pork on the chopping board.
"Musani, do you think we should sell him to a Spirit World Lord or give him to the sect in exchange for merit points?"
"This is the first time we're doing this kind of business. It's best to hand him over to the sect. When we have experience in the future, we'll contact the Spirit World Lord ourselves and sell our prey for a high price! "
At this moment, Elvin, who was lying on the ground as if it was difficult for him to even breathe, finally raised his head and saw the intruders who had attacked him.
They did not have their own signature personality. There was only a sticky blackish-purple octopus head and a body that looked like a mollusk in a grayish-white priest robe.
'His appearance can barely be considered human. At least he hasn't completely lost his self-awareness as a human. But he's severely homogenized, ugly and vicious inside, weak self-concept, dependent on the strong … '
With just a glance, Elvin could already see the nature of their hearts from their appearance.
The most likely possibility was that they were all the dependents of a certain high-level mysterious existence. They had been gradually infected by the power of that powerful existence, which was why they were so homogenized.
"A long night means trouble. Let's take the prey away from here first."
"Alright, after we give him to the sect, we'll split the profits equally."
"Sizzle …"
When the tentacles on the two octopus heads' faces, mixed with mucus, extended and enlarged, wanting to wrap around Elvin and wrap him up.
Ah Qiu …
Elvin sneezed, but this time, what he spat out was no longer black juice, but a pitch-black seagull.
Ah Qiu … Another one.
He spat out three seagulls that had long been unrecognizable. In the blink of an eye, the tumors grew and exploded on the spot, turning into a pool of black goo.
Looking at Elvin's body, he had completely recovered his original clear and clean appearance. Even if there was a little residue, it was no longer a hindrance.
Facing the spreading tentacles, he wiped away the black goo at the corner of his mouth, his face expressionless.
"Sixteen tentacles? Let's see who has more tentacles! "
"Pfft —"
As he spoke, his hands pierced through the rock and into the soil beneath his feet.
The "Revitalizing Spirit Light" that had been greatly enhanced in the Spirit World was fully activated.
At the same time as the two octopus heads' expressions changed, the earth rumbled and the mountains shook.
Huge stone palms broke out of the ground.
