Chapter 343 Soul Channel (Asking for Monthly Tickets and Recommendation Tickets)
"It doesn't matter. We have plenty of time and can discuss it in the long run. I don't believe it won't show up." Leiter comforted the other party.
The shadow monster fell silent and said after a moment: "To be honest, my time to stay here is very limited. I forgot to tell you that the special thing about us shadow monsters is that to go anywhere, we don't need to be physically present, we only need to shadow you. A clone is enough."
Lei Te looked stunned and pointed at the other party: "You mean... you are just a clone now?"
"That's right, our Shadow Demon clan is like this. We always have clones when walking outside, and the main body will be hidden in a very safe place. The clone is not weaker than the main body, and it will not affect our lives even if we die. After a while, It will recover automatically," the shadow monster said.
"In other words, as long as you don't die, your clone will always exist?" Leiter asked.
"That's right, so I'm never afraid of death. But one day my energy will be exhausted, and I will have to automatically return to my body to replenish it."
"Is there no other way?" Leiter frowned.
"Of course there are. In the underworld, there are several materials that can replenish the consumption of our shadow clones and extend the duration of the clones. Even if they are willing to spend the money, they can exist for a long, long time. Some shadow demons who are wealthy and have abundant resources have never even existed. Return to the main body..." The shadow monster said: "But unfortunately, I am not among them. Although I received a reward from the shadow demon ancestors when I came, I can extend it for a certain period of time, but only a small part is left today. I can only hold on for a few more months before I have to leave, otherwise I won’t be eager to cooperate with you humans..."
It’s a bit interesting... After Leiter understood the ability of the Shadow Demon species, he touched his chin and asked: "In that case, leave the next thing to me, I will try my best to find the traces of the Blood Demon clone and solve it! But I want to ask, does the Blood Demon clone have a fatal weakness? Is there a way to defeat it quickly?"
"Hasn't it been beaten away by you?" The shadow monster said in surprise: "The current Blood Demon clone is at the level of the Holy Domain, but its abilities are rather weird, especially now that it is seriously injured, and it is no match for you. Master its weaknesses. , is it still important to you?”
Leiter pondered for a moment and said: "Well... I'm just curious. If the Blood Demon clone has evolved successfully for thousands of years and has the ability to briefly open space gaps, how can it be quickly eliminated?"
"A blood demon clone that has evolved for thousands of years? That's a bit tricky..." The shadow monster followed Leite's question and said thoughtfully: "The blood demon clone in this state has the original power of condensed blood core, and its strength is stronger than when it first arrived. In this world, it is several times stronger. It should also have strong resistance to various sources of power in your world. If the only way to deal with it is your mysterious light system - purification, it can fight against the blood demon. There is strong restraint, and if it can hit, it can cause considerable damage. However, I have already observed that no one in the light system in this world has understood the mystery of purification. One of the mysteries of light is the most difficult to understand, but this is too coincidental..."
After saying this, the shadow monster shook his head regretfully.
"Purify the mysteries..." Leiter muttered silently, wrote it down, and planned to go back to the future to find other strong men in the light system. If he can cooperate with his own gravity space and disintegrate the mysteries, he should be fully confident!
Then, he moved in his heart and asked: "How do you know that the mysteries of purification are the most difficult to comprehend the mysteries of the light system?"
The shadow monster glanced at Leiter, looked at Yunhai below and said:
"I also learned about the basic situation of your world after listening to the introduction of the shadow demon ancestor. The shadow demon ancestor learned from another powerful existence in the underworld that your world contains extremely pure elemental origin power, although the quantity is very small. It is small, but it also has many wonderful powers. Well, in your words, it is mysterious. Naturally, whichever element has the most amount will have a stronger effect."
Lei Te's eyes flashed with surprise. The other party's introduction was similar to what he had guessed. After experiencing the simulation at the beginning of creation and absorbing the mysterious flow of fire, he had an intuitive understanding of the origin of the world. There are varying degrees of origin power. If a certain type of element has more origin power, it will naturally be stronger...
"What about your world? What's the situation like?" Leiter pretended to be casual, "There has always been a legend in our world that the soul of a person after death will take the initiative to enter the underworld. Is it true or not?"
"Hahaha." The shadow monster laughed twice and asked: "What do you think? Even a character like the Blood Demon cannot guarantee the success of time travel at a huge cost. Why do you think that a weak human soul can Come to the underworld?"
Hearing these words, Leiter clenched his fists and his heart sank - he still hoped to find Nicole's resurrection in the underworld, could it be cut off like this...
The shadow monster seemed to have insight into people's hearts. Seeing Leiter's silence, he let out a weird laugh: "Oh? Could it be that you still want to come to the underworld to look for your dead friend?"
Leiter glanced at the other party coldly, thinking that the other party was mocking, but suddenly heard the other party's tone change, and said meaningfully in a high-pitched voice:
"I just said that the souls here cannot enter the underworld on their own initiative, but that does not mean that they cannot enter the underworld through other means..."
"Huh? In what way, how many souls have been to the underworld in the past?" Leiter's eyes flashed with a glimmer of hope, and he asked without giving up.
"I mentioned just now that we Shadow Demons learned the basic information about your world from a certain powerful being, and that existence has always been connected with your world, and even made some kind of contract a long time ago. "The shadow monster said: "There are rumors throughout the underworld that it has used the top original wonders in the underworld to open up a soul channel. The souls who died in your world will most likely be absorbed and come to the Undead Continent through the soul channel. …”
"The Continent of the Dead?"
"Hehe, it is the exclusive territory of that powerful being. It occupies roughly one-third of the underworld. No one dares to provoke him..."
"Will all souls be drawn there?"
"That's not the case." The shadow monster said: "Although that being is very powerful, it is already the limit to open a soul channel from such a long distance and absorb the souls of some weak extraordinary beings. The souls of ordinary humans are too powerful after death. If you are weak, you will be easily dissipated. And the soul channel of a too powerful person is usually attracted to the person who is very important to you. "
"First-level transcendent..." Leiter's chest rose and fell slightly, his breathing quickened, and he murmured: "Is she really in the underworld..."
"First-level transcendent? The probability is quite high!" The shadow monster said: "Souls at this level are relatively easy to absorb through the soul channel, and most of them can be sent to the Undead Continent."
"Can you send me there too?" Leiter took a deep breath, focused his eyes on the shadow monster, and said extremely seriously.
"Are you kidding!" The shadow monster suddenly raised his voice, "The soul channel can only carry souls, and cannot transmit living creatures! Even if you die, the soul of a strong man in the sanctuary cannot be transmitted, and you will still die. Let’s get this idea..."
"Then what kind of strength can one force into the underworld?" Leiter said extremely seriously.
The shadow monster blinked, looked at Lei Te's serious face, and couldn't bear to strike: "I advise you... forget it. We will capture a lot of the saintly people here."
"Please tell me, thank you!" Leiter said, "I can agree to all your requests!"
"Alas...why bother..." The shadow monster looked at the persistent Leiter and sighed, "If the origin of your world were to grow several times stronger, you would realize all the mysteries of a certain series to perfection and be able to be born. It is not impossible for a rare object to come to the underworld, but without countless years, it is impossible for your world to grow to that point, and no one can even guarantee whether it can grow smoothly during this process..."
"Then...is there any other way?" Leiter asked relentlessly.
"Well, there is indeed a way, but for anyone in your world, it cannot be done in a short time. Even if it takes tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years, it is difficult to see hope..." The shadow monster said: "I learned about this method from the Shadow Demon ancestor. He once said that if someone can achieve the fusion of the original power, there will be infinite possibilities. But this path is just the ancestor's idea. No one knows how to go. Whether it is. There’s no guarantee it will work.”
"The fusion of the original power..." Lei Te muttered softly, imprinting it in his mind, and continued to ask: "How to integrate the original power?"
"I said this is just an idea, and no one knows what will follow." The shadow monster said: "The underworld's understanding of you is also very limited, only superficial. The characters in your native world actually know your story better than we do. strength."
Leiter pursed his lips, exhaled lightly and said, "Thank you..."
Then, he asked again: "It sounds like the power of the underworld is different from ours. Can you give us a general introduction?"
"Haha, I can't tell you this!" The shadow monster shook its two tentacles and said: "The underworld's foundation is beyond your imagination. It is much stronger than you. In the future... if you have the opportunity to enter the underworld, you will naturally be able to feel it. Got it. Of course, I don’t think you have such a chance..."
"Thank you..." Through this exchange, Leiter once again gained a lot of knowledge. He paused and said, "I still don't know your name or code name. Can you tell me?"
"Haha, it's all right. My full name is Deidara Shadow. For the sake of us being so destined, tell me the name of your deceased friend. If you have the opportunity to go to the Continent of the Dead in the future, if you can find her, no matter what, Mind taking care of it for you," Deidara said easily.
"Does she... have memories of her life?" Leiter asked anxiously, fearing that the soul after death would not remember the past at all. Wouldn't that mean he would become a stranger?
"Well...it's hard to say. In short, weak souls are generally chaotic, wandering in the undead continent in a daze. If there is a chance to strengthen the power of the soul, it is possible to awaken the memory..." Deidara said: "Just Just like your human babies, when they are born, they are mentally weak and cannot remember anything. The same is true for their souls.”
"Her name is Nicole Feng..." Even though he knew it was a simulation, Leiter still said it nervously, "If she encounters difficulties, I hope I can help."
"Nico? I understand." Deidara pondered and said: "If you can solve the Blood Demon clone within a few months. When I return to the underworld, we will meet you as soon as possible, and the time will be much freer. If you are willing Go to the Undead Continent and find someone for you. If I can’t... Hehe, you will be punished when you go back. When you go to the Undead Continent depends on your luck!”
Leite took a deep breath and gathered his complicated thoughts, "Leave it to me..."
One month later.
On the top floor of the Golden Blood Palace, in the alchemy laboratory where Gunas died, Lei Te closed his eyes, sat cross-legged on the carpet, and immersed himself in the mysterious perception. He was surrounded by the earth element world. Endless earth element particles gathered around him, interpreting the mysterious trajectories, sometimes scattered like quicksand, sometimes condensed like a barrier...
The five mysteries are unpredictable, but they can't be fused together anyway. Since the last communication with Deidara, Lei Te has been exploring the path of mysterious fusion except for looking for the traces of the blood demon clone, but in just one month, he has not achieved any results.
"Alas... It's too difficult..."
Leite felt the unchanging earth element world and sighed in his heart-mysterious fusion? What kind of fusion is it? What is the fusion method? This is indeed a road with no future, and he can only grope in the dark. The end of the road is uncertain, it may be light, but it is more likely to be endless darkness. But no matter what, he must persist!
Rhett opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the alchemy table deep in the room. At this time, Manu returned to his human form and sat on a chair, holding the alchemy book in front of him in a trance, staring at it, completely immersed in it.
The news of Dean Gunas's death a month ago did not spread, because after discussing with Rhett and Hades, they decided to temporarily control the news among the top leaders of the Golden Blood Academy, and only announced to the outside that Gunas had been in seclusion for a long time.
Even in the communication with the top leaders of the Golden Blood Academy, Rhett and Hades were willing to help preserve the power of the Golden Blood Academy until the next Sanctuary Alchemist appeared, without taking any annexation actions.
Of course, as a bargaining chip for the transaction, the Ring Tower is also eligible to obtain all the alchemy information and data of the Golden Blood Academy in the past two thousand years...
This price can be said to have shaken the fundamental interests of the Golden Blood Academy, and it is difficult to describe it as a heavy bleeding. But if this is not done, a force without a sanctuary, but with alchemical treasures accumulated over thousands of years, will be like a fat lamb falling into a pack of wolves, and its fate will inevitably be ruthlessly eaten...
