That's what Qu Jianlei said, but the scene was already turning into a bit of a competition.
So he took the broken sword and began to dissect the octopus skin slowly.
His dissection speed was not fast, but it was very stable. After three hours, he had dissected more than ten meters.
If you want to roughly cut open the giant octopus, you would have to cut out an opening of more than thirty meters.
Before he could continue, Paranoid came over again and said, "Boss, let me do it. I feel that my spiritual energy is a little more refined."
His spiritual energy was a little out of balance just now, so he went to the spirit gathering array to recover a little, but he made an unexpected discovery.
This is him. Any other Supreme Being might not have such a keen perception.
"Is that so?" The others' eyes lit up when they heard this.
Everyone was originally waiting to see what could be cut open, but after hearing that it had such a miraculous effect, they all rushed to the base.
Being able to extract the essence of spiritual energy within the body is a huge benefit.
Even Mrs. Jia was tempted. Even though she had successfully advanced, her family knew about her affairs.
She didn't think that she was the real Nascent Soul - she felt that it was a bit uninteresting.
She looked at Qu Jianlei, "Is this... useful to me too?"
Qu Jianlei didn't expect that the Broken Sword could be so useful. He thought about it and nodded, "It should be useful."
"Then I'll go and restore my spiritual energy," the old lady said in a blink of an eye and disappeared.
For a moment, apart from the paranoid man who was vigorously dissecting, Qu Jianlei and Nutrients were left staring at him with big eyes.
Nutrients blinked twice, "Actually, I can also use this to extract spiritual energy."
"It's not necessary," Qu Jianlei shook his head, "This is not only physical work, but also a test of micro-management of spiritual energy."
It's not that he doesn't believe in the micro-manipulation capabilities of nutritional supplements, but the consequences are too serious. Once he makes a mistake, his lifespan may be affected.
The point is, according to this logic, there is a more convenient way to extract spiritual energy.
"Don't you have an invisibility cloak? There is also a soul-suppressing bell. You can practice it regularly and use it. It can also refine your spiritual energy."
Work hard to consume the spiritual energy, and then restore it... In this way, you should be able to reach the level of essence.
He had not thought about this aspect before, but the paranoid words opened his mind.
Most of the members of the team now face the problem of impure spiritual energy. Like the new member Mu Guang, his spiritual energy is almost non-existent.
In this case, there is no problem in using the spells of the Awakened System, but it is very difficult to simply drive the spiritual energy.
Magical weapons and weapons like these, which only recognize spiritual energy, can help everyone peel off the impurities in spiritual energy and are the best auxiliary tools.
However, because of the frequent replenishment of spiritual energy, the consumption of energy blocks will increase greatly.
But it’s a good thing after all. “I didn’t expect that dissecting a creature from another space would yield such additional gains.”
The paranoid was painstakingly dissecting it, and when he heard the words, he said aloud, "This thing... is still not big enough."
At first, everyone was a bit worried, thinking that the body was too big, but now he was a little worried because there was only so much available for practice.
You can also use a broken sword to chop other objects, but it will easily lose its durability.
Just dancing the broken sword in the air can achieve a certain effect, but compared to this full-force cutting, the efficiency is definitely much lower.
Moreover, there is only one Broken Sword, which is not enough for so many people.
Qu Jianlei glanced at him after hearing this, "Didn't I say it? If you have a magical weapon, you can try to refine it and use it."
Last time you took a waistcoat from Bubbles, I didn't say anything to Nutraceuticals, right?
However, the paranoid was really a bit shameless, "The waistcoat Babs can also be used, not just the spiritual energy."
"Boss, I know you have a lot of good stuff, so I'll give it to everyone to borrow... I promise it will only be used for practice!"
Qu Jianlei didn't care that he was thinking about his own things. Without a team of people, he wouldn't have been able to develop to this point.
He thought for a moment and said, "I only have one umbrella in my hand. It's a self-defense weapon. You can make do with it."
He also bought an umbrella at an auction, and he also learned the "Instant Flash" movement technique from it.
This umbrella is barely usable, but its durability has dropped a bit. If it's used in battles, it probably won't last many times.
It is precisely because of this that he keeps putting his umbrella in the talisman to collect dust.
Last time Qinghu was seriously injured when he was preparing for the Five Elements Battle Formation, he even considered whether to give her an umbrella.
However, in addition to losing its durability, this umbrella also suffers from the same problem - it only recognizes aura.
Qinghu's aura is obviously not that pure, and is even worse than Paranoid's.
Because he couldn't find a use for it, he didn't distribute the umbrellas. Now he uses them to help everyone extract their spiritual energy. Instead, he makes the best use of them.
As soon as Qu Jianlei finished speaking, a figure flashed in front of him, but it was Mrs. Jia who came back again, "Thank you, boss!"
You peeps... Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly.
But the old lady is already a Nascent Soul, and she is still shouting like a boss. He can't let people down, can he?
He took out the worn-out umbrella, handed it over, and asked casually, "Have you never collected magical weapons?"
"Thank you, boss," Mrs. Jia thanked her again, then took the umbrella and sighed softly, "How many complete divine weapons...are there?"
"There are thousands of supremes in the empire. Including the hidden ones, there may be nearly ten thousand. I am just a small person in the edge star field."
The old lady is indeed an amazing genius, and she has once reached the highest level.
But in front of the huge supreme base, her background in the edge star field is a huge shortcoming.
She also had some wealth at the beginning, but most of it was used to attack the supreme.
Even if she could encounter the auction of a complete magic weapon, she probably wouldn't be able to afford it, and... since there is no source of spiritual energy, why would she buy it?
However, after using the broken umbrella for a while, she still said, "I feel that the effect of the essence of spiritual energy is not as good as that of the broken sword."
Everyone later used them interchangeably and agreed that this was indeed the case.
But Qu Jianlei really didn't have any other magic weapon in his hand - the nutrient had just refined the invisibility cloak, so he couldn't take it out.
As for the soul-suppressing bell, she hasn't even completely refined it yet, let alone taking it out.
There is also Qu Jianlei's sword pill, which he has completely refined, and it is one of his trump cards, so it is not convenient to take it out.
Fortunately, he pulled out another dagger, which was also in tatters, but it was quite powerful.
A dagger is no sharper than a broken sword, and the effect of the essence of spiritual energy is slightly worse than that of a broken sword.
I really don’t know which immortal cultivator left this broken sword, but it turned out to be so useful.
Because everyone was scrambling to practice, it only took less than a day for the big octopus to be cut open.
This guy is really similar to an octopus, except that it has two large bones and a big stomach pouch.
Opening the stomach pouch is very laborious, but the key is to prevent gas from escaping.
When Qu Jianlei was at Blue Star, he had seen the rotting hippopotamus.
Therefore, the task of opening the stomach sac was left to Mrs. Jia.
The old lady received the warning, and immediately after taking action, she flashed forward for nearly a hundred kilometers.
However, the result was not as bad as Qu Jianlei imagined. The punctured stomach sac only spurted out a small stream of air.
"It is indeed an extraordinary creature," Qu Jianlei sighed, "it is different from ordinary things."
However, that air flow also carried an extremely mixed energy aura, and some components felt like they could not be from this universe.
Zijiuxian muttered, "Should these energies... be collected?"
As expected of someone from an academic background, I was still thinking about research at this time.
"Then it would be better not to dry the body in the air," Qu Jianlei shook his head disapprovingly, "We can get more information about different dimensions."
Things in other dimensions are indeed worthy of study, but first we must ensure that they do not bring disaster to this world.
Only when there are enough samples and safety can be ensured can it be appropriate to consider doing some in-depth research.
Qu Jianlei also likes research, but now... isn't it that the conditions are not met?
After waiting for another two days, until the energy had almost dissipated, everyone completely opened the stomach pouch.
There is actually some dust on the body and tentacles of the big octopus that can be studied, but the most valuable part is the stomach.
However, there really wasn't much in its stomach, mainly scattered bones.
These bones also contain some energy.
Obviously, the big octopus that is speculated by paranoiacs to be "Nascent Soul level" also has some extraordinary creatures on its diet.
Most of the bones are not small, and the body should have been relatively large during life.
The reason why no flesh and blood was seen attached to the bones was that they must have been digested.
This extraordinary creature cannot be treated with normal circumstances. It is likely that its stomach still retains a certain digestive function after death.
However, not everyone can do such a thing as checking the stomach pouch.
In addition to having an indescribable weird smell, it also carries a strong corrosive energy.
The broken sword was slightly corroded by this. Fortunately, Qu Jianlei sent in spiritual energy in time to drive away the corrosive energy bit by bit.
The main force in the review, apart from Qu Jianlei, Bentley, Mu Guang and Paranoid, is Qinghu Supreme.
——Other A-class members are not allowed to get close at all.
Mu Guang's performance was the most professional. He actually didn't mind being dirty at all and took the initiative to check Big Octopus's monthly work!
But it’s normal. What kind of scenes have archeology enthusiasts not seen? This is all trivial.
The key is that he really found something different, "Here I go, there's a human head!"
The human head has no flesh and blood, it is just an empty skeleton, even the teeth and lower jaw are missing.
What's rare is that there is still aura left on this skeleton - and it's the aura that everyone is familiar with!
The aura has been completely polluted, but that doesn't stop everyone from sensing it!
"I'm so stupid..." Qu Jianlei's face darkened, "This thing can actually eat people?"
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Jia didn't care about being dirty, and raised her hand to take a picture of the skeleton.
A layer of spiritual energy was released from her palm, holding the skeleton in her hand.
After feeling it carefully, she whispered in a low voice, "Is this... the highest level of cultivation?"
