Chapter 119: Suspicious
"Isn't there any movement?"
Shang Luo turned around and stared up at the massive scarlet god statue, its drooping face just in front of Shang Luo's.
In the round angry eyes, there were a few small snakes swaying their bodies, not looking closely, as if they were a few weeds growing on the eyeballs.
With a slight shake of his wrist, he immediately slashed out a dark black sword qi, and this time there was no red phosphorus giant snake in front of him.
All I heard was a loud bang.
The idol cut off its waist, and its upper body slid down and smashed to the left, sending a puff of smoke and dust.
The noise and dust cleared, and the two broken idols still did not make a sound, as if this was really just a strange idol.
"Could it be that the god of desire has woken up?"
Shang Luo frowned and muttered to himself.
After slowly retracting the long knife in his hand from the scabbard, he immediately tried to sweep the entire statue with his spiritual power, however, no matter how the spiritual power of the external probe was perceived, he got the same answer: it was just an ordinary statue.
"Too suspicious?"
Shang Luo shook his head, wondering if he was a little suspicious.
The ghost mist poured out, and immediately began to refine the old woman into a white bone puppet.
Maybe she is not good at refining her body, and because of her old age and decrepitude, the old woman's blood and qi have been exhausted and dried up, almost no different from skin and bones, in this case, the white bone puppet refining is very smooth, and the speed is also very fast, and in just a few seconds, the flesh and blood of her whole body have been integrated into the bones.
After looking at these bones steadily, Shang Luo found that the old woman's bones were not the same as the bones of normal humans, and in many places they were similar to the bones of snakes, which he could be sure of, after all, he had killed too many arrows and snakes in the Tianxing Mountain Range, and he had a certain understanding of snake bones.
"Failed?"
Just when Shang Luo was about to plant the soul seal, he found that the soul mark was unexpectedly unsuccessful, although it was submerged in the white bone body, the white bone puppet was still motionless and did not move.
Under normal circumstances, if a living person is directly refined into a white bone puppet, there will be a certain probability of failure, and the probability of failure is not low, which is directly proportional to the cultivation and willpower of the person being refined, that is, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the willpower, and the greater the probability of failure.
But if it was to refine a dead person who had just died into a white bone golem, the chance of success was close to 100%, at least Shang Luo had never encountered a case of failure.
However, at this time, the situation of the old woman was different, in her body, Shang Luo was surprised to find that there was no trace of the existence of the soul, or rather, at least it did not exist now. In a sense, a soulless creature is just a shell, and there is no doubt that it is a puppet on the stage, which also means that from the root, its corpse cannot be refined into a white bone puppet.
Although the name of the white bone golem is the white bone golem, its core is not the bone, but the soul, the most evil part of this spell is that it will trap the soul in the white bone, and this soul also acts as the energy source of the white bone golem, and every action of the white bone golem will actually consume the soul source trapped in the bone.
For those souls, the raising and movement of the bone golem is like cutting flesh with a blunt knife, and it is like the broken white bones being reassembled, and the pain to that soul is no less than being torn apart by five horses during its lifetime.
And the biggest reason why the white bone golem is buried in the tomb is that the ghost mist must be used to nourish the soul, otherwise after a few battles, the soul will be exhausted, and the white bone golem will be completely scrapped.
"That's it. ”
Shang Luo sighed lightly, one more white bone puppet, one less white bone puppet is really nothing to him now.
The disappearance of the old woman's soul is not difficult to guess, it is likely to be related to the god of desire.
Lowered his head and pinched the snake staff, the red beads on the top of the snake staff had completely melted, but the silver thread king snake was lying on the ground softly, lifeless, and the two red-scaled snakes hovering and intertwined on the snake staff were full of gaps and scars, all of which were violently cut by Shang Luo when they turned into giant snakes.
Looking at the scarred Desire's Scepter, Shang Luo shook his head, obviously, it is not a simple matter for this totem weapon to be restored, of course, even if it is restored, without the Silver Thread King Snake, it is impossible for this Desire's Scepter to completely recover its previous power, not to mention that Shang Luo has always disliked this kind of snake.
Put the snake staff in the storage ring, put it together with the Onimori Fork and the Dragon Slasher, and prepare to sell it for money.
With a light footstep, stepping over the gravel, Shang Luo walked in the direction that the old woman had walked out of.
This hall dedicated to the god of desire is not the only one, and there should be four more halls behind it.
According to the parchment records, the god of desire has four phases, and the temple of the god of desire has built a large hall for each aspect of the god of desire.
With the mentality of traveling and visiting, Shang Luo quickly visited the entire Xiangjia Temple.
"Nothing good. ”
Shang Luo muttered to himself, with a slightly disappointed look on his face, but this was not surprising, if there was really something in this Desire Jia Temple that made him feel excited, I am afraid that the old woman would not have taken it out until she died.
Come to think of it, it's already a miracle that a temple where even the gods it worships have been defeated is not completely ancient. You must know that the god of Desire was defeated by the barbarian king Agu with the ancestor totem, although I don't know why the barbarian king Agu let go of the Desire Temple, but the suppression in the open and secret should be indispensable.
"Fortunately, it is not without harvest, in addition to the snake staff, there are nearly a thousand books, animal skins, and stone slabs of all sizes. ”
In the courtyard between the third and fourth halls of the temple, Shang Luo found a large number of books, animal skins, and stone tablets in a room on the left, some of which were recorded in human writing, and many more were recorded in barbarian language.
Shang Luo put all of them into the storage ring, and fortunately there were enough storage rings in his hand, otherwise nearly a thousand books, animal skins, and stone slabs would really not fit, if nothing else, the upgrade hope of [Reading LV1] would be pointing to these things.
......
Three hours after Shang Luo left, in the first hall of the temple, there was a sudden sound of rustling from the broken statue, and cracks suddenly appeared between the eyebrows on the broken skull.
Immediately afterwards, a blood-red snake as thick as an index finger and as long as a baby's arm drilled out of the crack in the center of the eyebrows, this little snake was as scarlet as jade, and its whole body was transparent, as if it was a work of art carved directly from a piece of blood jade.
"Hiss!"
A pair of golden vertical pupils looked at the destroyed hall, and a touch of humanized resentment immediately appeared on the little snake's face.
However, resentment is resentment, and the little snake is also very aware of its current state, not to mention the culprit who destroyed its temple, and now it may not even be able to defeat a large mouse.
