Chapter 100: The Last Legacy
How exactly did the skeleton monster forcibly control the scepter, Lin Xuan already knew something in his heart. It is well known that artifacts have spirits, and the scepter itself has a certain spirituality. When Nick gripped the scepter, there was not the slightest reaction. There was neither a backlash nor the slightest feeling of the power of the scepter.
"I didn't feel anything special, just a stick."
The skeleton monster on the opposite side grinned, and Lin Xuan guessed that it was a mocking smile. However, Lin Xuan also replied with a mocking smile. He pressed his hand against Nick's shoulder. A dark green flame stretched down Nick's arm to the scepter.
The skeleton monster suddenly understood what Lin Xuan was going to do, and it quickly raised its hand hoping to recall the scepter back into its hand. But it's already a little late. The flames are already scorching the scepter.
The skeleton fell to its knees, as if in some great pain. It kept shouting something, probably begging for mercy or something. It's a pity that all the people present are the Iron Blood, and they don't pay any attention to its screams. Instead, it was the troublesome ghost and Nick's mother who seized the opportunity and stepped forward to attack.
Even in this state, the skeleton monster was still able to barely hold on, but its movements had inevitably begun to slow down.
Lin Xuan's guess was right, it put his soul into the scepter and suppressed the consciousness of the scepter itself. This allows you to use all of the Scepter's abilities perfectly. Because the scepter is a doppelganger to it. Lin Xuan's Avad Soul Curse was aimed at the attack of the soul, and it naturally had no effect on its body. Because its soul is not on the body at all.
The green flame evolved from the Awadesso mantra and is specifically aimed at the flames of the soul. It can't damage the scepter itself, but the spirits of the skeletons inside the scepter aren't so lucky.
Lin Xuan increased the output of his magic power, and the miserable green flames became even more vigorous. The Skeleton Monster's screams intensified, and it even gave up its resistance. Just lying on the ground and rolling. The troublesome ghost and Nick's mother wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity, and cut off the skeleton monster's head with a clean sword. At the same time, the soul of the skeleton monster in the scepter could no longer bear it and directly turned into a cloud of black smoke in an attempt to escape the scorching flames.
It's a pity that Lin Xuan had already been prepared, and when he raised his hand, it was an Awad Curse, and the black smoke was directly shot down in midair. At the same time, there was some kind of change in the scepter.
"I feel the power in the scepter, it's huge, I can't control it."
"It's cathartic, and the skeleton monster has suppressed it for too long." Lin Xuan said, and a miserable green flame formed again.
"What are you doing?"
"Weapons don't need to have a mind of their own. It just needs to be ready to be used. This scepter is too old, and there have been many generations of masters in between. I'm sure it has more than one hidden back hand on it. They didn't conflict with each other, but it was a surprise to me. It's just that I can't use such a weapon, so I have to clean it up first. ”
Under the scorching of Lin Xuan's flames, the scepter let out some kind of painful roar. A mass of shadows of various human forms rose from the scepter. Then dissipated into the air under the scorching flames.
"It seems that almost every master has left his hand in the scepter. Soul or soul fragments. They also look forward to the day when they will be resurrected and return to this world. ”
There were more than a dozen figures clinging to or for nothingness, and a large, distorted figure emerged. Unlike the previous ones, this guy is not humanoid. It's hard to describe exactly what it looks like. The horns on the head, as well as the tail behind it, look closer to the legendary demon. Although it is not humanoid, the whole body gives people a feeling of perfection. It is shown that this is an extremely high creature.
It's not the same as the painful struggle that preceded it. This figure just floated quietly in the air, looking at Lin Xuan. It was as if the flames were harmless. But its body gradually faded under the flames. Apparently it's about to disappear. What did it say to Lin Xuan? But no sound came out, and Lin Xuan could only look dazed.
It frowned, as if aware of the problem. Then it raised its finger and pointed it on Lin Xuan's head. Lin Xuan instinctively tried to stop it, but that finger passed through all the interceptions like nothingness, and directly entered Lin Xuan's head.
It was a message about who the other person was, and the origin of the world. In the mouth of that being, this world is called the Land of Exile. It is a world created by some of the higher races of antiquity. Specifically for the purpose of exiling those who break the rules.
As for the scepter, it was the weapon of a great man. But then the war broke out and their entire race was destroyed. This scepter may be the last proof that they existed. As for the existence in front of him, he was just an ordinary member of that race. He died on the battlefield, and by chance, his soul was protected by a scepter. This stay is endless years.
It has even lost the concept of time. The long time also made him lose almost all his strength. I watched as one human after another held the scepter, and then died one by one. He also became determined to live and die. It's just that it has become one with the scepter, and it doesn't even have the ability to commit suicide, so he can only continue to mess around and maintain a state of remnant soul. It had even forgotten its name. It wasn't until later that the Skeleton Monster took control of the Scepter.
According to him, the Skeleton Monster was an exiled member of his clan long ago. But because it has been too long, in order to survive, he has used many forbidden techniques, constantly changing his body, and devouring the rest of the exiles. And sleep as deep as possible to spend most of the time. Even transferred his soul to the scepter, only to barely survive. But his strength has become less than the one percent of the victorious period. It had been eager to gather all the parts of the Scepter, so that at least it could be resolved. It's a pity that at the last moment, Lin Xuan completely ended it.
The shadow thanked Lin Xuan for his relief. It left Lin Xuan with some knowledge in return. It was the legacy of prehistoric times, creatures known as gods and demons. It's a pity that according to the phantom, Lin Xuan's life form is too low to withstand too profound knowledge. And he doesn't have the ability to transmit much.
In the end, Lin Xuan only got a little bit of information. But it was enough to surprise him. In the other party's only system, the use of magic has reached an extreme. Magic is subdivided into countless branches. They can even build a small world like this one to exile prisoners. It's a pity that in that unknown war, it is said that the origin of the world was damaged. They couldn't sustain their powerful life anymore, so in the end everything was gone.
