He could clearly feel a stream of power flowing into his body like a clear spring.
This was the dissipated spirit power of the dead demonic beast!
Absorbing and refining spirit power could make one's body stronger.
However, only Awakened ones could absorb Soul Power! This was the key to the hunters' continued evolution and left ordinary people far behind.
But Tang Yu knew his own situation. His aptitude was extremely poor. Not to mention absorbing spirit power, even the awakening device couldn't help him awaken.
At this time, he could clearly feel a stream of power flowing into his body and then converging somewhere in his body.
If this wasn't spirit power, then what was it?
Tang Yu decided to look for the system.
"Ding dong! The Lord's aptitude is indeed extremely low, belonging to E-class. But after the Lord is bound to the system, it has the ability to absorb and refine spirit power without awakening. "
"And the puppet belongs to the territory unit. It can't absorb spirit power by itself. As long as the Lord is within the range of the spirit power dissipation, this part of the spirit power will naturally be absorbed by the Lord."
"In addition, the higher the territory level, the faster the Lord will absorb and refine spirit power."
Tang Yu also heard that the hunters couldn't absorb the spirit power if they killed a demonic beast too far away.
Some people once thought of using powerful firearms to kill demonic beasts, but the consumption was too high. Even the spirit power couldn't be absorbed. Over time, unless it was absolutely necessary, many Awakened were unwilling to use these things.
Tang Yu sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and immersed his mind. In a trance, he felt as if he was in a dark, enclosed environment. Only in the most central place, there was a ball of light, emitting a faint light.
This was the essence of spirit power!
Tang Yu instantly understood. This ball of spirit power was composed of countless tiny light particles, gathered together to form a ball of light, emitting a surging power.
This was the first time he directly felt the spirit power and the first time he was ready to refine it.
Tang Yu's heart was not confused. As if it was his innate instinct, his consciousness controlled the ball of spirit power to rotate and squeeze.
Some light particles separated from the ball of light and flew to the edge of the dark space. They slowly melted into his limbs, torso, and internal organs. In an instant, his body seemed to have become even more powerful.
Tang Yu grasped this feeling and continued to refine the spirit power. As the process became more and more proficient, the refining process became faster and faster. The spirit power light ball gradually became smaller and turned into tiny light particles that were absorbed into every cell in his body.
After a long time, Tang Yu opened his eyes. At this moment, he was full of energy. His eyes were bright and full of spirit. His body had also become strong and powerful. When he clenched his fists slightly, he could feel the surging power from within his body to his palms. Even the wounds on his arms were slowly healing.
Tang Yu was surprised. No wonder he heard that the first time to refine spirit power, the effect was the best. Now it seemed that it was a bit too good. If he were to face that Demonized Steel Rat again, he was confident that he could easily deal with it.
… …
With the crisis resolved, Tang Yu finally had time to take a good look at the newly built Lord's Castle.
From the outside, the Lord's Castle didn't look very big. It was only slightly bigger than the previous villa. It could only be considered a miniature castle. The outer walls were silver-white, with a dark blue pointed roof. Everything looked like a dreamy painting.
The interior of the castle was divided into two floors. The first floor was a complete hall, while the second floor was the lord's resting area. It had a bedroom, a study, and a bathroom. He couldn't tell what the furniture was, but he could feel that they were all of high quality.
Tang Yu's whole body was soaked in the bath. This bath was bigger than his previous bedroom. The bath water was dense and fragrant. Soaking in it, he was so comfortable that he almost moaned.
After the doomsday, he spent most of his time in the wilderness. Occasionally, he lived in simple wooden houses or old tents. This time, the bitterness was over and the sweetness was coming.
The 100 spirit stones were really worth it!
Moreover, there were two loyal and responsible puppets and the crystal ball floating in the air. The 100 spirit stones were even more worth it!
Tang Yu called the crystal ball over. The basketball-sized crystal ball floated in front of him.
The crystal ball was similar to a radar. It could monitor and alert within the territory.
At this time, the territory was in its most basic state. The scope wasn't large, but it also included the villa area and most of the Western District. But in this area, any unusual movements would be displayed on the crystal ball.
From the crystal ball, Tang Yu saw a few red dots. These were the demonic beasts that were still lurking in the Eastern District. He was glad that he hadn't been discovered by the demonic beasts along the way. If he made a mistake just now, he would've been torn to pieces by the demonic beasts.
Of course, it wasn't just the crystal ball. After Tang Yu opened the system panel, he also found a map of the territory. The same red dots could be seen on the map. But in contrast, the crystal ball showed a more detailed picture. It even included the terrain within the territory.
Tang Yu immediately got up, picked up his equipment, and set off with the No. 1 puppet to clear the surrounding demonic beasts. The No. 2 puppet was left to guard the castle.
"The last one, No. 1 will hold the line."
In front of him was a demonic wolf with green eyes and a rotten body. Not to mention its strength, its appearance was enough to scare people.
But Tang Yu wouldn't be scared. The demonic beasts he encountered today, no matter how strong or weak they were, couldn't stop No. 1's shot. He also put aside his previous fear of demonic beasts.
After refining a sufficient amount of spirit power, Tang Yu only had fighting spirit in the face of a demonic beast!
The demonic wolf leaped high, opened its mouth, and a gust of fishy wind blew on his face.
Tang Yu held the short knife in his hand and calmed his mind. At the moment when the demonic wolf pounced on him, his right foot pushed the ground hard and sideways. The short knife penetrated the wolf's internal organs.
He turned around and continued to swing the knife.
Swish!
After a few slashes, the heavily injured Corrupted Demonic Wolf finally died.
Another wave of spirit power was absorbed into his body.
"Huff ~"
Tang Yu gasped for breath. The whole battle lasted less than a minute. Both his strength and mental strength were consumed.
But he felt a sense of accomplishment.
The moment an ordinary Awakened awakened, their body would experience a qualitative improvement. He hadn't experienced this process, but through absorbing and refining soul force, his body's quality was getting higher and higher. At this moment, he was able to cut down this demonic wolf with his saber, which meant that he had reached the standard of an ordinary Awakened.
Maybe even higher.
Tang Yu looked at the curled edge of the knife in his hand and frowned slightly. This knife was relatively small and inconvenient to use against demonic beasts. Maybe when he encountered a stronger demonic beast, the sharpness of this knife wouldn't be able to cut the skin of the demonic beast.
He also needed a more suitable weapon.
The sky was slightly dark. In the distant mountain forest, the roar of demonic beasts rose and fell one after another.
The periphery was beyond the detection range of the crystal ball. Tang Yu didn't plan to continue cleaning. He was very tired today. If his physical fitness hadn't improved, he would've been lying on the bed.
Tang Yu returned to the City Lord's Hall with the loot. No. 2 was still standing by the side of the gate.
There were a lot of loot. Especially this time, he searched around without any scruples. Many items hidden by hunters were found by him.
For example, a Desert Eagle.
The Desert Eagle was a very famous pistol with great power. But it wasn't practical. Firstly, the gun was too heavy, and secondly, the recoil was too strong. It was probably a private collection of a big boss before the doomsday.
But now, it was different. He already had a hunter's physique. The Desert Eagle was difficult for ordinary people to use before the doomsday. For him, the recoil was nothing. On the contrary, the lethality of the Desert Eagle was just right to deal with demonic beasts.
He also found a lot of food, especially the rare tobacco and alcohol in the doomsday. But most of the food had been destroyed in the battle. Tang Yu was really distressed. He immediately grabbed a handful of snacks and stuffed them into his mouth.
These previously inconspicuous snacks were something that only the big boss could afford to eat in the doomsday. Tang Yu suddenly felt grateful to those demonic beasts. Without the demonic wave, where could he get 100 units of spirit stones to build the Lord's Castle? He couldn't get the things in the shelter at will.
… …
It was night, the stars were bright.
Tang Yu always felt that the air after the doomsday was much better than before. Even at night, he could see the stars that he rarely saw before.
He suddenly remembered his parents in the distance. He didn't know if they were safe at this time. At the beginning of the doomsday, when mobile phones could barely communicate, Tang Yu called his parents who were thousands of kilometers away and learned that their location was relatively safe. It was said that the military was planning to build a shelter there.
Tang Yu was a little worried now that he thought about it. He didn't know if the shelter was built smoothly or if everything was safe.
Originally, he was just an ordinary survivor who struggled to survive. He couldn't cross thousands of kilometers of dangerous wilderness in his life. At most, he could only pray for his parents' safety in his heart.
But now it's different. With the system, Tang Yu felt there was hope. Maybe not now. But as long as the territory was developed, as long as he improved his strength, he believed that one day in the future, he would be able to cross thousands of kilometers to the distant city.
That day would not be too far away!
