Bai Xiaowen flipped through the fifth level of the Strengthening Scroll, but he could not find any strengthening options for the Skeleton Warrior and the Evil Ghost. It seemed like he would have to wait until he reached the sixth level before he could strengthen them and devour the souls of Commander-level powerhouses.
"Forget it, there's no need to devour them for now … They're already Elite. Devouring the souls of other Elites won't yield any results. I might as well keep the chance to devour them."
Before the Skeleton Mage was strengthened, it could not devour the souls of Commander-level powerhouses. It had been fighting in its original form. It was only in the Jiajing Dimension that Bai Xiaowen activated the strengthening option for the Skeleton Mage. It devoured the soul of Zhu Zhi, the Great Doctor of the Yellow Turban Army.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the new attributes and skills of the Skeleton Warrior.
[Skeleton Warrior (Elite Level 5)]
[Race: Undead/Bone Race]
[Attributes: STR 34, DEX 15, CON 20, WIL 11] (Bonuses included)
[Skill 1: Whirlwind Slash: The Skeleton Warrior swings its greatsword in one direction and deals moderate physical damage to enemies in its path. Enemies with lower Strength than the Skeleton Warrior will receive additional damage and have a temporary knockback effect.
[Skill 2: Heavy Slash: The Skeleton Warrior raises its greatsword and charges up for a powerful attack. The longer the charging time, the higher the damage.]
[Skill 3: Hollow Skeleton: Race passive ability. The Skeleton Warrior is immune to bleeding and has a 10% evasion rate against small piercing attacks.]
This was a Strength type summoned creature. It was a physical attack type warrior. The most eye-catching skill was the first one, Whirlwind Slash. Charging skills were very important in battle. Moreover, this skill had a knockback effect.
With the Skeleton Warrior's 34 Strength, even some Agility type or Spirit type Bosses would not be able to escape the fate of being knocked back by the Whirlwind Slash. It was a good interrupting skill.
Next was the Evil Ghost's attributes panel.
[Evil Ghost (Elite Level 5)]
[Race: Demon/Ghost Race]
[Attributes: STR 9, DEX 17, CON 19, WIL 36] (Bonuses included)
[Skill 1: Formless Illusion: Racial Passive, Evasion rate against physical attacks is increased to 99%, Damage Resistance against magical attacks is increased by 99%.]
[Skill 2: Grudge: The Evil Ghost will inflict the Grudge effect on the target. The target must resist the Spirit resistance or the Evil Ghost will drain 1 point of Spirit every second for 15 seconds. If the target's Mental Strength falls below 2 points, the target will enter a state of unconsciousness. The duration of the unconsciousness will be the same as the remaining time of Grudge's Mental Strength extraction. This skill has a 120-minute cooldown.]
(For example, if an Evil Ghost's Resentment Test succeeds against a target with low MP, and the target's MP drops below 2 after only 10 seconds, then in the remaining 5 seconds, the target's MP will not continue to be extracted and will be knocked out.)
[Skill 3: Terror: Passive. When the target engages in Spirit Resistance with the Evil Ghost, the target will suffer an additional reduction in Spirit Resistance. The lower the target's Willpower attribute, the higher the reduction in Spirit (0-10).]
"The Black Soul Stone can actually summon creatures from the Ghost Clan?" Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised.
The Ghost Clan belonged to the Demon Clan and generally leaned towards the Eastern background. Their counterpart was the Soul Clan, which belonged to the Undead and leaned towards the Western background.
The Black Soul Stone itself was something from the Aaron Plane and was produced in the Western background. The summoned creatures brought by the Return of the Dead skill were also Undead creatures from the Western background, such as skeleton soldiers, ghosts, zombies, vampires, and so on.
Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of a Demon Clan.
When asked about Delifa, the Banshee could not explain why.
"What is the origin of the Black Soul Stone?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
The Banshee Delifa shook her head repeatedly, "I don't know. In my consciousness, there seems to be a tightly shut door, and there is a long period of memory that has been sealed … "
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes. This was another difficult puzzle to solve. The origin of the Black Soul Stone could only be explored in the Aaron Plane's World.
Thinking of the Aaron Plane, Bai Xiaowen thought of the female knight, Gloria, who had been fooled by him twice. In the face of Gloria, Bai Xiaowen could only flee. But now it was different. After half a year of growth, Bai Xiaowen gradually had the capital to fight against the Senior Leaders.
However, the female knight should also be improving, but it was not clear how fast she was improving.
Logically speaking, in just half a year, Gloria's progress should be limited. However, the flow of time in the Spirit Realm could not be completely equal to the reality of Earth.
Bai Xiaowen learned that when the Awakened entered the Spirit Realm, when the Awakened stayed in the Spirit Realm, the flow of time in the Spirit Realm would be the same as that of Earth. Staying in the Spirit Realm for ten days, ten days would pass on Earth.
However, if there was not even a single Awakened, the evolution of the Spirit Realm would slowly accelerate. Maybe one day on Earth, two days in the Spirit Realm, three days … This accelerated state would get faster and faster, and it could even reach dozens of times faster than Earth's time! Until an Awakened was matched to enter.
When an Awakened was matched to enter a certain Spirit Realm, it was equivalent to stepping on the brakes, slowing down the flow of time in the Spirit Realm and restoring it to the same as that of Earth.
Although there were millions of Awakened on Earth, a considerable number of Awakened were content with the status quo and were unwilling to explore the Spirit Realm frequently. They were considered an inactive group.
Coupled with the scarcity of tickets to the Spirit Realm, there were not many Awakened who entered the Spirit Realm at the same time. Every Awakened regarded entering the Spirit Realm as a major event. They would only enter after a few months or even half a year of preparation.
The Spirit Realm had many Spirit Realms. Until the end of 1996, the humans on Earth did not dare to say that they had explored all the Spirit Realm. Perhaps, there were many Spirit Realms that had not been set foot by the Awakened from the beginning until the natural evolution of the Spirit Realm led to the reunification of the Spirit Realm.
Just like the stars in the night sky, when the humans on Earth looked up at the night sky and marveled at the bright stars, perhaps hundreds of millions of light-years away, there were countless stars that were born, evolved, and destroyed, but no one knew about them.
This was also the reason why the circulation of information in the Spirit Realm was very high, but the price was not high, because the outdated information was eliminated too quickly.
If no Awakened had entered the Aaron Plane in the past six months, a long time should have passed in the Aaron Plane, and Gloria's strength may have improved a lot.
Bai Xiaowen's thoughts wandered for 0.1 seconds, and then his attention returned to the newly added summoned creature, the Evil Ghost.
