Chapter 19: Lighting up the star slot

Soul crystals are also hard currency, and each soul crystal can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones, which can be used as coins with spirit stones.

When it comes to coins, the more the merrier, of course.

Xia Yuan was holding a hoe in his hand, which he grabbed when he passed by a farmer's house.

Without weapons, entering the immortal land is only for the sake of being beaten.

Time was pressing, and Xia Yuan had no time to build his own weapon, so he could only make do with it.

Of course, Xia Yuan is now an LV.3 level evolver in the Stardust Stage, and it is more than enough to deal with ordinary demon beasts, so he is not too worried.

Suddenly, Xia Yuan's eyes flickered, and he sensed that a demon beast was slowly approaching in front of him on his left.

The other party's body was hidden in the grass, and it was difficult to detect the other party with the naked eye alone, if it weren't for Xia Yuan's strong spiritual sense, the other party might have been able to sneak attack successfully.

Judging by the breath, this should be a LV.1 demon beast in the Stardust Period.

In this peripheral area, it is impossible for there to be too strong demon beasts.

Xia Yuan pretended not to notice the other party, and only turned sideways slightly to facilitate the next attack.

The spiritual intelligence of the Level 1 Demon Beast is very low, and there is not much difference except that its strength is stronger than that of ordinary beasts.

"Whew!"

There was a sound of breaking the air, and the beast that had been waiting for a long time finally launched a sneak attack.

It was a jet-black saber-toothed beast, about the size of a wild boar, with fangs sticking out of its mouth on either side, like two sharp swords.

The saber-toothed beast had just appeared, and a brilliant golden light flashed between its two teeth, winding towards Xia Yuan like a rope.

Sabertooth's innate skill, "Bondage Shackles", has been activated.

In this regard, Xia Yuan had already prepared, and his body flashed to avoid the other party's golden light, and then the hoe that had been prepared for a long time smashed down.

"Click!"

There was a crisp sound, and the saber-toothed beast was smashed by Xia Yuan's backbone, and its body fell to the ground, and its sharp teeth pierced the ground into two deep ravines.

Generally speaking, saber-toothed beasts attack by first using bondage shackles to control their prey, and then using their sharp teeth to launch critical attacks.

If you don't know, once you are controlled by the shackles, it will be difficult to lift the restrictions, and the next thing will be to face the sharp tooth crit of the opposite side.

It's just that for Xia Yuan, who has experienced a hundred battles, he has long been familiar with the opponent's offensive routine, and he can easily crack it.

Xia Yuan's blow was so powerful that he smashed the saber-toothed beast to death with one move.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully killing a saber-toothed beast, and the essence value is +3. ”

The pleasant sound of the system sounded, and Xia Yuan couldn't help but be stunned.

There is even a system prompt for killing beasts, what is this essence value for?

At this time, Xia Yuan didn't care about studying the system, he hurriedly stepped forward and knocked the saber-toothed beast's head open with a hoe.

Regardless of the spilled blood, he groped in the other party's brain.

"Found it!"

Xia Yuan showed great joy, and he really found a beast crystal from the saber-toothed beast's head.

The beast crystal was only the size of a thumb, and it was irregular in the shape of a diamond, dark and shiny, shining with a brilliant crystal light.

"Ding, the saber-toothed beast soul crystal has been detected.

Active Star Skill: Shackles of Bondage (a golden chain condensed with the power of evolution, with a strong power of restraint, which can be upgraded)

Passive Star Skill: Critical Hit (Any attack issued by the host has a certain chance of a critical hit, and the damage is increased by an additional 10%, which can be upgraded.) )

Is it synthetically absorbed?"

When Xia Yuan touched the sabertooth beast soul crystal, the pleasant sound of the star map synthesis evolution system sounded again, which immediately shocked his spirit.

Xia Yuan looked at the crystal clear saber-toothed beast soul crystal in his hand, and his eyes showed a look of doubt.

Strange, isn't there only one star skill for each monster, and why did the system detect two?

Is it because of the problem with active and passive star skills?

For a long time, everyone thought that each kind of demon beast only had one star skill, so it seems that everyone has ignored their passive skills.

After having the star map synthesis evolution system, Xia Yuan knew that the original demon beasts all had two skills.

Just like human genes, only dominant genes can be seen from the outside, and recessive genes cannot be seen.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, in this way, wouldn't he have one more skill in each star slot than others?

Xia Yuan quickly withdrew from the immortal land and returned to the land of the Qinling Mountains on Earth.

Next, he wants to absorb the soul crystal, which may take a long time, and it is not safe in the immortal soil, so he has to find a safe place to complete the absorption.

Xia Yuan went all the way north, found a stone cave formed by several hidden large stones, and drilled directly into it.

"Absorb!"

Xia Yuan's eyes shone brightly, and he responded to the star map synthesis evolution system.

"Ding! The star skill has been synthesized, start to absorb, countdown, ten minutes. ”

"The system prompts that the absorption process cannot be interrupted, otherwise the absorption of star skills will fail, please ensure that the surrounding environment is safe. ”

Xia Yuan knew it in his heart, he sat cross-legged, holding the soul crystal tightly in his hand, and entered a special state.

In my mind, a bright star map appeared, like a canopy of heaven covering the sky.

It's just that the star map is bright and lightless, and there are no stars on it, and it looks lifeless.

In the very center of the star map, five star slots stand horizontally, connected to the stars.

The more stars lit up, the stronger the star power, and the more powerful the star skill will be.

Xia Yuan is completing the first step and lighting up the star slot.

In fact, what is stored in the star slot is the star skill obtained from the soul crystal, and every time the star skill is released, it must be achieved through the star slot.

For evolutionaries, the existence of star maps is extremely important, and it can greatly improve combat effectiveness.

If you can't awaken the star map, then in the future battle, the final result can only be a high-level infantryman, rushing to the front as cannon fodder.

Time passed slowly, and Xia Yuan felt his head buzzing, as if he was in a state of half-asleep.

He was fighting his spirits, alert to the situation around him.

If a demon beast rushes over at this time, it will be a lot of fun.

At this moment, there were footsteps around, and about a dozen people suddenly came here.

They are nearby villagers, and because they live relatively closely, they can see the sky curtain from afar.

A dozen young people got together and discussed with each other for a long time, and finally decided to come and have a look.

No one realized that there would be danger behind the light curtain, they thought that it was auspicious from heaven, and maybe there would be a great opportunity.

They didn't prepare anything, they just came with their bare hands.

If you encounter a monster, the fate can be imagined.

"Ah Liang, is there a person there?"

A young man in his twenties pointed to the stone cave where Xia Yuan was hiding and asked in a condensed voice.

When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped, and they all looked towards the hidden boulders, and sure enough, they found a person sitting inside.

Ah Liang waved his hand at everyone and said quietly: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

As he spoke, more than a dozen young men leaned over towards Xia Yuan's hiding place.

In the stone cave, Xia Yuandu was like a year, and he had already sensed that the group of guys were leaning towards him.

Damn, there are still two minutes to succeed, and at this time, what if you interrupt yourself?

Xia Yuan was ruthless in his heart, you better not touch me, otherwise, Lao Tzu will throw you into the fairy soil to feed the demon beasts!
