Chapter 268: Evil Spirits Fight Back

"Ding~ meet the conditions, the system is being upgraded......"

A hint that arrived slightly late made Zhang Xiaowu slightly stunned, it was actually a system upgrade, which was the second time in history. The first upgrade was more than two months ago. After that upgrade, the system added many features, such as more purchasable items in the store, added skill and equipment upgrades, etc., and even allowed him to finally enter the big market of the lore space.

Only that time, he was not the first to be promoted to the second level, because when he walked out of his stone house, he found that there were already many Chosen ones on the market streets, and there were people on the front who became the Chosen One earlier than him, and there were also people who worked harder than him.

But this time was different, he was sure that there was no Chosen One who could reach his level now. He will be the first to usher in a system upgrade, and the benefits will probably be the first.

Feeling that it was impossible for the system to be upgraded quickly, and he couldn't even query the attributes, so he had nothing to do, but he set his sights on the heart demon beast.

He looked at the cursed tooth on the back of the heart demon beast, and there was some hesitation in his heart, and at the same time, some expectations, very contradictory.

The last blow of the Heart Demon Beast just now directly shook him away, and the cursed tooth instantly got out of his hand, and it is still on the corpse of the Heart Demon Beast. For such a long time, there is no need to think about it, when the Heart Demon Beast died, the cursed fang had already devoured the soul again. And this time it was even more thorough, the original fleshy heart demon beast was only a shriveled skin, and I don't know where those tissues in its body had disappeared.

He expected that the Cursed Fang could be upgraded to another level, so that even if the evil spirit was strengthened again because of the Heart Demon Beast, it should be suppressed by the Cursed Fang, and it would not be able to turn the sky. The cursed fang, which is already very against the sky, is upgraded again, and then combined with the evil spirits that have been promoted, I don't know what kind of effect it will have.

But after all, he didn't know what the situation was now, so he was a little hesitant to go over and retrieve the dagger now.

In the end, anticipation and curiosity finally overcame his caution, and he decided to pass now, because the special items brought by the Heart Demon Beast were even more exciting.

However, the moment he grasped the cursed fang, his heart became alert, and his heart palpitations exploded, and he hurriedly let go. But it was too late, and the dagger clung to his hand as if it were sticky.

"Not good!"

He felt as if his life force was moving away from him, and something big was about to happen.

"Quack~ Let's go now, don't you think it's too late?"

A cold voice reached his ears, making him feel his body instantly cold, as if he had fallen into the abyss.

"You~"

Zhang Xiaowu was covered with goosebumps, and he suddenly felt fear in his heart. At the beginning, when the Heart Demon Beast roared and attacked, he had a strange feeling. When I saw the shriveled corpse of the Heart Demon Beast just now, I felt even more that something was wrong.

Now, he finally realized where the problem was.

This heart monster is to control and command the battle of alien beasts, which can devour and absorb the memories of life, and can even control other life.

When evil spirits first see them, they also devour human brains and steal information from them. How can this be so similar to the Heart Demon Beast? Even the roar of the evil spirit at that time was similar to that of the heart demon beast, when the evil spirit roared, it was also like an attack deep into the soul, and ordinary people couldn't withstand it at that time, and almost everyone who was close was yelled into a fool.

And what made him curse himself the most was that it was not the first time that the Cursed Fang sucked creatures into dried corpses. When he was underground in the African Triangle, he used the Cursed Fang to kill the evil spirits, and also devoured the evil spirits with their souls and bodies.

The only difference is that after the evil spirit was devoured, it didn't even leave a hair, while the heart demon beast left a skin bag.

The two are so similar, the same skills and attack effects, and even the way to die are so similar. Why didn't you find out in the first place?

The dagger is upgraded, and normally it can suppress evil spirits that have also been promoted. However, the evil spirit devoured the soul of the heart demon beast and was directly nourished by the essence of its body. The evil spirit actually evolved twice in a row, and the second evolution even reached a great realm of ascension.

The most frightening thing is that after the evil spirits have evolved, they can actually communicate with people's hearts and speak human words.

Zhang Xiaowu immediately soaked his clothes with a creepy cold sweat, and his face was full of horror. He knew that if the evil spirit had really evolved to break free from the control of the Cursed Fang, such strength, even if he was ten times stronger, it would not necessarily be its opponent. Now he can only be slaughtered by evil spirits in front of them.

But after a moment, he calmed down, and a sneer leaked from the corner of his mouth.

"Huh? What are you laughing at? The cold voice asked suspiciously.

"Are you a heart demon beast, or an evil spirit?" Zhang Xiaowu didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

“……”

"It seems that I guessed correctly, you are neither a heart demon beast nor an evil spirit. Hehe, it should be said that you are the same body, the same life. Do you say yes? Brain worms? ”

"Quack, you're a human. Yes, I am the race of gods, the spirits. For us, a physical form is nothing more than a shell, which can be any life form, or a physical object. Strange beasts, evil spirits, or big trees, or mountains. Whatever form it takes, it's just a shell, and we're in the form of a spirit, immortal and immortal. The previous voice reappeared in Zhang Xiaowu's mind.

"Spirits?" Zhang Xiaowu was stunned, he really didn't understand it this time, he hadn't heard of this term at all? He had previously boldly guessed that the Heart Demon Beast and the Evil Spirit might belong to the same kind of life, both possessing the characteristics of soul immortality and being able to devour other souls. After the two meet, the most likely scenario is to devour each other, and there is even a possibility of fusion. But the reply he received made him dumbfounded, why did a spirit clan suddenly appear? It's not a heart demon, it's not a brain worm, it's not an evil spirit, it's ......

"Quack~, it seems that the IQ of human beings is stuck in the primitive first-level civilization stage. I thought that you, an interesting soul, would bring me unexpected gains, but I didn't expect it to be useless. But I'll still swallow you, as an appetizer before dinner. The cold voice suddenly became extremely loud at last, and the majesty revealed a contempt for life. Like your ancestors, return to the arms of God! ”

"I see!" Just when the dagger in his hand released a gray light, Zhang Xiaowu shouted, causing the light to be stunned.
