Chapter Twenty-Three: Yin Soul Stone, Soul Devouring Gu! (Happy Valentine's Day ☆ ヾ (*ε*) ノ Happy☆)
After getting the quest prop jewelry box, Lian Ji didn't put it away immediately, but opened the box and began to check the contents inside.
Due to the relationship between artificial intelligence Lan Feng, "Shenzhou" has a high degree of freedom, and players can play freely according to their own ideas, and do not have to follow a fixed routine like the previous game.
The reward for this task is only the white jade bracelet, if the value of the jewelry inside is enough, Lian Ji can completely give up this task and cut off this box of jewelry by himself.
When the chest is opened, it is filled with colorful gemstones, but none of them have any attribute bonuses, and can only be useful after being made into finished jewelry.
But just as Lian Ji was about to put the box away, Xue Shusha stopped him again, took out a black gem from the box, looked at it carefully, and said:
"There's something wrong with this gem, and I can feel a special power circulating in it."
Lian Ji took the gem from Xue Xuansha's hand and said to Xue Xuansha:
"Look at me, find out its secret in minutes."
"Identification!"
"System Prompt: Authentication Failed!"
"Identification!"
"System Prompt: Authentication Failed!"
"Uh... It's all accidents, accidents. Lian Ji said embarrassedly, "Come out for me!" Identification! ”
"System Prompt: Authentication Failed!"
"Identification!"
"System Prompt: Authentication Failed!"
“.…..”
"Identification!" *265 times.
"System prompt: Identification successful! Skill Proficiency Increased! ”
"Oh my God, it's finally done! Look, I'll say it's going to be fast! Lian Ji said proudly, but seeing the honey smile on Xue Shusha's face, Lian Ji had to shift his attention to this stone.
"Name: Yin Soul Stone
Type: Second-order material
Quality: Delicate (Blue)
Function: A stone with a sinister power inside, which can be used as a variety of materials. ”
"Good luck! I didn't expect this thing to be a Yin Soul Stone. Looking at the stone in his hand, he said, "With this stone and the Yin Gathering Mushroom I got before, I can refine the Soul Devouring Gu." ”
"Then do we still have to submit the task?" Xue Xuan Sha asked the key in one sentence.
"Let's buy a black gem first and put it in it to submit the task, anyway, we didn't steal it, we're just responsible for snatching it back, and we can't blame us for less and more." Lian Ji thought about it and said.
"That's fine, shall we go back now?" Xue Xuan said.
"Don't worry about it first, you help me take a look around, I'll refine the Soul Devouring Gu first." Lian Ji said energetically, this is the first time he has been refining Gu worms in the game!
"No problem! Come on, dear! After high-fives and encouragement, Xue Shusha and Lian Ji came outside and began to guard around Lian Ji.
After Xue Shusha left, Lian Ji took out the eggs of the bullet ants from his backpack, used the Poisonous Gu Eye to find the best egg among them, and put away the other ant eggs.
Holding this ant egg in his hand, Lian Ji began to control the spiritual power in his body and use new skills.
"Gu Method-Catalysis!"
"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for the success of the Torturer's self-created skills, rewarding experience points of 100 and perception +1. Ask the player to name the skill. ”
The system prompt sounded, but Lian Ji didn't pay attention to this prompt and continued the process of refining Gu.
As Lian Ji's spiritual power continued to decrease, the ant eggs in his hands gradually moved. Slowly, a newborn bullet ant crawled out.
After the birth of the little bullet ant, Lian Ji did not stop the transmission of spiritual power, but strengthened the supply of spiritual power. He wants to activate the hidden genes in this bullet ant and make it evolve wings that have disappeared.
When Lian Ji's spiritual power dropped by more than a hundred points, this bullet ant finally grew to the size of an adult, about the size of Lian Ji's palm. After doing this, Lian Ji used the Soul Destroying Skill and the Refining Skill to preliminarily control the bullet ant.
After controlling the bullet ant, Lian Ji took out the collected polyyin mushroom, placed it next to the bullet ant's mouth, manipulated the bullet ant to swallow it into his stomach, and used spiritual power to help it digest.
After watching the bullet ants slowly devour the Juyin mushroom that was a little bigger than it, Lian Ji always felt a cool breeze blowing through a certain part while he was excited, and it didn't feel very wonderful.
After the bullet ant completely digested the mushroom, a faint yin qi had appeared on its body around it, which meant that he could initially adapt to the yin energy and could accept a higher intensity of yin qi transformation.
After reaching this step, Lian Ji took out the Yin Soul Stone he had just obtained, placed it on his other hand, and both hands began to transmit spiritual power at the same time, and gradually got closer.
"Gu Method-Cultivation Gu!"
With Lianji's movements, a magical scene appeared, and the bullet ants miraculously entered the Yin Soul Stone, like amber.
At this point, the refining steps of the Soul Eater Gu are basically completed, and then as long as the bullet ants break through this Yin Soul Stone, the Soul Eater Gu will be considered refined.
However, generally speaking, it takes three months to half a year to complete this final step, but Lian Ji didn't want to wait so long, so he chose to use spiritual power to catalyze.
In reality, because of the lack of spiritual power, Lian Ji has never used spiritual power for catalysis, but in the game, his spiritual power can be squandered freely.
"Gu Method-Catalysis!"
Lian Ji constantly injected spiritual power into the bullet ants of the Yin Soul Stone, helping it absorb the power in the Yin Soul Stone.
As hundreds of points of spiritual power continued to be consumed, the effect of the catalyst was gradually revealed, and the Yin Soul Stone gradually cracked, and finally turned into powder, so far the refining of the Soul Devouring Gu was officially completed.
At this time, the prompts of the system also rang one after another.
"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for the success of the Torturer's self-created skills, rewarding experience points of 100 and perception +1. Ask the player to name the skill. ”
"Gu Method-Potential Stimulation!"
"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player on the successful ...... of the Poisoner's self-created skill"
"Gu Method-Cultivation Gu!"
"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player on the successful ...... of the Poisoner's self-created skill"
"Gu Method-Catalysis!"
These newly acquired skills have also been endowed with their own attributes by Zhi Nao Lan Feng.

After the Soul Eater Gu was successfully refined, Lian Ji got up and moved his body, went out to find the snow veil, and the two of them left here together through the Rune Stone of the Return City.
After returning to Mochizuki Castle, the two of them wandered around the player's stall for a while and found the player selling black gems. Bought one and put it in a gem chest, ready to be used to submit a quest.
Arriving at the jewelry store, Lian Ji handed over the gem box to the owner of the jewelry store, a young woman with a beautiful face.
"Lady, we've got your lost jewels back." Lian Ji said.
"Thank you, this is the material I've been using in a hurry lately, I'll check it first, please wait." The owner of the jewelry store said.
Lian Ji watched the jewelry store owner inspect, and he still felt a little uncertain in his heart, after all, they had exchanged for a second-order Yin Soul Stone.
"Okay, there is nothing wrong with the goods in the box, this is the reward promised to you, please keep it." The proprietress of the jewelry store said politely.
"System Prompt: [Eliminate Defecting Soldiers] mission completed!

Rewards: 2000 XP, 8 Gold, Jade Bracelet*1. ”
"Name: White Jade Bracelet
Type: Jewelry - Wrist Jewelry
Quality: High Quality (Green)
Function: Physical Attack +10, Ability Power +10. ”
Wearing the white jade bracelet on his hand, Lian Ji's attributes have improved slightly. After leaving the jewelry store, Lian Ji spoke first:
"It seems that the owner of the jewelry store doesn't know about the Yin Soul Stone, and it seems that there should be a mistake on the part of the party that provided the goods."
"That's right." "Then do we have any other tasks next?" ”
"It seems that there is no suitable task left." Lian Ji thought for a moment and said.
"Then let's upgrade separately! This will make us much more efficient. Xue Xuan said.
"Okay, then it's decided!" Lian Ji thought about it for a while and agreed, both of them have their own inheritances and their own areas of expertise, and it is not a good thing to upgrade separately.
