Chapter 163: Discovering the Spiritual Vein
"Finally, I have reached the half-step demon king. Luo Zhen sighed.
The half-step demon king is the transitional state between the demon pill realm and the demon king realm, in order to allow the demon pill to adapt to the human form first, and lay a solid foundation for the demon pill to completely transform into a demon baby in the future.
Luo Zhen's mind sank, and then he saw the demon pill in his dantian.
At this time, his demon pill was no longer round, but had grown a small head and arms and long legs. However, because he was still at the half-step demon king realm, the demon pill's baby appearance was not very obvious.
It can only be said that there is a little prototype of a baby.
According to the rules of the cultivation world, starting from the demon king realm, one must start to overcome the tribulation.
In other words, when Luo Zhen is about to condense into a real demon baby, he will face If you can survive the obstruction of thunder tribulation, you will become a demon baby and your strength will soar.
If you can't survive, you will die on the spot.
However, Luo Zhen is not worried, because he is a thunder attribute, plus the jade spirit body with strong self-healing ability, the thunder tribulation that ordinary practitioners are extremely afraid of is nothing to fear for him.
After reading the attribute board, Luo Zhen then turned it off.
"Don't worry about the thunder tribulation. The only thing to consider now is the experience value. If you want to condense into a demon baby and become a demon king, you need 5 million experience points," Luo Zhen touched his chin and thought,
"Fortunately, the spiritual water in the spirit pool is also very powerful. Not only did I successfully upgrade, but it also allowed me to accumulate nearly 2.8 million experience points."
"So, the next plan is to find all kinds of natural treasures and elixirs, and strive to break through as soon as possible.
"However, there is still a small problem that is a bit annoying. "
Luo Zhen scratched his head.
The small problem he mentioned is the two useless small skills on the attribute board, namely poison arrows and entanglement.
These two small skills come from when Luo Zhen was very weak. At that time, Luo Zhen had not even condensed into a demonic cyclone.
Now, Luo Zhen has reached the level of a half-step demon king. These two small skills have no effect, but they are still on the attribute board, which seems to be out of tune with other skills.
"Based on my ability to synthesize skills, if I encounter new toxins in the future, I should be able to upgrade the poison arrow technique, and the same goes for entanglement."
"Forget it, let's talk about it in the future. Maybe I will encounter an opportunity someday."
Luo Zhen shook his head and prepared to leave.
At this moment, the system suddenly said, "Host, wait!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Luo Zhen stopped and asked in confusion.
"I seem to have found a treasure just now, at the bottom of the spirit pool!" The system said excitedly, "You go into the spirit pool and take a look. There should be something below!"
"Is there such a good thing?" Luo Zhen raised his eyebrows and then jumped into the spirit pool.
The spirit pool is square, about two meters deep, and the bottom is flat land, which is no different from an ordinary pool.
However, if you feel it carefully, you can clearly sense that there are wisps of spiritual energy coming out from the land under the spirit pool.
"This spirit pool is indeed strange!" At this time, Luo Zhen also noticed something was wrong.
Without the system urging, Luo Zhen turned his wrist and the Thunder Cloud Sword appeared in his hand. Then Luo Zhen held the Thunder Cloud Sword and cut out a knife energy, which hit the bottom of the spirit pool fiercely.
"Boom"!
Under the bombardment of the sharp thunder knife energy, the land under the spirit pool was like tofu dregs, and a huge gap was easily cut out.
After the gap appeared, the spiritual energy emanating from the bottom became more concentrated.
Luo Zhen was overjoyed, and his wrist kept moving, cutting out one knife energy after another.
Half an hour later,
the spirit pool spread into a huge pit with a depth of 100 meters, and in front of Luo Zhen, a white vein appeared.
This vein was completely composed of spiritual stones, and it was constantly emitting extremely rich spiritual energy.
"Spiritual vein! This is a spiritual vein!" The system exclaimed in surprise, "This spiritual vein should be the core of the entire secret realm, and the spiritual pool above is also formed by the spiritual vein."
"That's right!" Luo Zhen swallowed hard, his eyes shining.
If he swallowed this spiritual vein, he didn't know what level he could upgrade to, but he would definitely become a demon king!
"Host, how about I discuss something with you?" The system suddenly said.
"What to discuss?" Luo Zhen could probably guess what the system was thinking, but still asked.
"I need to swallow this spiritual vein to upgrade," the system said, "Can you give it to me, or let me swallow it first?"
Before Luo Zhen could speak, the system said, "If I upgrade, I will definitely be able to recover more memories and open more functions, which will be more helpful to you!"
Luo Zhen did not answer immediately, but bowed his head and pondered.
After a moment, Luo Zhen said, "Okay, I can let you swallow it first, but you have to leave some for me."
"No problem, don't worry, host!" The system said excitedly.
The next moment, a green light gushed out of Luo Zhen's mouth, covering the spirit vein. Under the cover of the green light, the spirit vein quickly melted and turned into the purest energy flowing towards Luo Zhen.
However, the energy disappeared into thin air after entering Luo Zhen's body. Luo Zhen did not get any benefit. The spirit vein energy was directly taken over by the system.
As time passed, the spirit vein became smaller and smaller, but the system was still absorbing a large amount of energy.
Luo Zhen was stunned, and then used his consciousness to talk to the system, "System, haven't you collected all the energy yet?"
"No, no, help me for a while, I'll be fine soon!" The system said excitedly and anxiously.
"Okay." Luo Zhen had no choice but to continue to help the system devour the spirit vein.
Ten minutes later, the entire spirit vein was drained, and Luo Zhen dispersed the green light in his mouth, and at this time, he also heard the voice of the system.
"Host, I'm fine, you can swallow the remaining spirit veins yourself."
Luo Zhen smiled bitterly, "Then what spirit veins are there, all the spirit vein energy is given to you."
"Ah? That's too unfortunate," the system's voice was a bit like drunken, and it said incoherently, "This time I owe you, wait for next time, next time"
Before the words were finished, the system was silent, probably falling asleep again.
"What yours and mine, you wake up first." Luo Zhen shook his head slightly, and then jumped out of the giant pit.
The system sucked all the spirit veins dry. To be honest, Luo Zhen had a little opinion, but if he said how angry he was, it was not that.
He and the system were originally one, helping each other. Without the system, he would not have come this far.
Therefore, Luo Zhen was quite grateful to the system. It was not a big deal to give it the spiritual vein.
Moreover, the stronger the system was, the more it could help him. Luo Zhen had nothing to worry about.
Shaking his head, Luo Zhen looked around, and then randomly chose a direction to go.
The time in the secret realm would last for a whole month. The reason for such a long time was mainly to allow the practitioners who entered the secret realm to have enough time to find medicinal materials and absorb the spiritual water in the spiritual pool.
Now, all the spiritual water in the spiritual pool was drunk by Luo Zhen, and even the spiritual veins underground were dug by Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen couldn't get out for a while, so he could only wander around in the secret realm to see if he could find one or two more natural treasures.
But then again, even the spiritual veins under the spiritual pool were dug by Luo Zhen, which meant that this secret realm was completely ruined, and it would take thousands of years to recover!
