Chapter 76: Fountain of Soul
Some dim caves echoed with the sound of flesh being cut. The giant snake lay paralyzed on the ground, as if its spine had been taken away, but its huge body was still intimidating.
After suffering a heavy blow, the giant snake's body was no longer as tough as before, but it was still very difficult to cut. It was like cutting the hide of a white-maned bison.
He first cut open the head of the Soul Master, where the blood was most likely hiding, but found nothing in the skull except some sticky brain matter.
The expressions on those faces turned into sneers, and their eyes stared at Li Mu.
This silent stare is eerie.
"I advise you to stop this blasphemous behavior."
The faces spoke in unison in sharp voices.
Li Mu ignored it and continued cutting the snake meat like an experienced butcher.
"You are a waste, but you still dare to call yourself a god."
The faces became distorted with anger, becoming more hideous, and they screamed hysterically.
"I am the Lord of Souls, I am Dravidian!"
These faces were murmuring the same words, rising one after another like a flock of crows. Their angry eyes, wide-open mouths, and flapping noses occupied all of Li Mu's field of vision.
If ordinary people had seen this horrific scene, they would have been unable to help but retch. But Li Mu's nerves were strong and he was still cutting the snake's body slowly and methodically.
"Stop deceiving yourself. If you are really the Lord of Souls, the moment you speak, I will have gone crazy."
Li Mu cut open a face without changing his expression. The whole giant snake had been cut into half by him. The ferocious snake body was like an ingredient waiting to be cooked.
"No!"
The angry face poked out of the snake and tried to bite Li Mu.
Li Mu shook his wrist and cut off the face directly.
The severed face fell to the ground like a piece of rotten meat.
The giant snake behaves more and more crazily, indicating that he is very close to the blood of the Lord of Souls.
Li Mu cut open a piece of scaly skin, and suddenly, a flying cicada made entirely of blood jumped out from the flesh and blood.
It is very delicate and crystal clear, as if carved from the purest red crystal.
The blood cicada flew as fast as lightning and shot directly towards Li Mu's forehead.
Li Mu had long been wary of the trapped beast's fight with this drop of blood. He directly held the blade horizontally to block the blood cicada.
"when!"
There was a resounding sound, and the huge force coming along the blade was easily absorbed by the mechanical arm.
The blood cicada fluttered its wings from the blade and drew a line of blood in the air. It continued to think about Li Mu flying.
Li Mu squinted his eyes, staring at the fast-flying creature, and struck out with the light sword in his hand.
A ball of sparks shot out from the air, and the blood cicada was chopped directly to the ground, making a small hole in the ground.
The blood cicada struggled to fly. Li Mu took out an iron pliers from the Exile Realm and clamped it directly.
Even through the mechanical arm, he was unwilling to touch this strange drop of blood rashly.
The blood cicada struggled violently, and the iron pliers were unable to hold it.
"So this is your true body."
Without saying a word, Li Mu took out a crucible of hot molten iron from the Exile Realm and pressed the blood cicada directly into it.
The blood cicada was bathed in the molten iron and did not struggle. It just stared at Li Mu's face with a pair of malicious eyes.
Pulling it out of the molten iron, Li Mu found that it had not changed at all, and the molten iron at nearly 1,800 degrees Celsius could not cause any harm to it.
[Item detected, retrieving...]
A string of worm-like text suddenly appeared at the bottom of the field of vision.
The blood cicada suddenly seemed frightened and struggled violently. The iron pliers could hardly hold it.
[When the target is resisting, do you need to consume the source of essence to force the transformation? 】
Li Mu immediately clicked yes, and then he saw that the number of source materials drawn from the monastery almost plummeted.
The blood cicada seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying and screamed with unprecedented intensity, almost tearing Li Mu's eardrums.
"You...you are!"
When the source matter dropped to single digits, the scream of the blood cicada suddenly stopped and turned into ashes and fell to the ground.
[Soul Spring: A rare treasure, a spring evolved from a drop of blood stripped from Dravidian's body. A handful of soul water is derived every seven days. Warning: Excessive use of the Soul Spring will attract the Lord of Souls.
Watch]
After the blood cicada disappeared, the densely packed faces peeled off the giant snake's body and fell to the ground like fallen leaves. The entire giant snake began to rot at an alarming rate, and even the hard bones began to wither and turn black, turning into
Like rotten wood.
Not long after, the entire giant snake turned into a pool of stinking pus and blood on the ground.
Li Mu took the iron pincers back to the Exile Realm and breathed a sigh of relief. The continuous injuries and recovery did not have any impact on him. Doing so put a heavy load on his body.
He felt as if his body had been hollowed out, and he felt a sense of weakness.
"Next, it's harvest time."
They came to the secret vault in the monastery and violently opened the door to the secret vault.
The first thing I saw were pieces of cursed blood iron ingots, arranged neatly, because cursed blood iron has an extremely high density and is not large in size, but it weighs hundreds of kilograms.
Next to it is a heavy wooden shelf with drawers neatly arranged one after another.
Pulling out the drawer, there are various types of ores inside.
If ordinary metals are in a state of psychic radiation for a long time, their properties will undergo magical changes and mutate into spiritual metals with various extraordinary properties.
Empty copper is the most common spiritual metal, which can produce an anti-gravity field after being energized.
Shen Luoyan identified these metals and read out their names in detail.
"This is ferrotourmaline, which can be processed into electromagnetic guide rails. Through electromagnetic acceleration, it can increase the lethality of firearms."
"These pieces are holy silver and star-sink iron. Combined with the cursed blood iron, they should be able to create a weapon that fits the hand."
"These are air-patterned aluminum, which can be alloyed with other metals. The strength of the alloy is not inferior to the cursed blood iron, but the density is lighter than carbon fiber."
Except for these relatively rare spiritual metals, the rest is all empty copper.
Even so, their value is still amazing.
Li Mu waved his hand and temporarily collected all these metals into the Exile Realm. However, these spiritual metals were not the most precious things in the entire secret vault.
The two sacred deeds were properly stored in metal boxes.
A beast of darkness, a whisper of soul.
