Chapter 52: Star Beast Bones
A passage appears in the Book of Time, accompanied by a simple and clear drawing, although it is only a few strokes, but it is very expressive, depicting the ferocity of this giant beast vividly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Quicksand raised his head and said, "This is the remains of the Star Beast, it should be one of the three Star Beasts that invaded the Faro Plane in the first place, that pool is called the Source of Corruption, it can absorb the power of the Star Beast's bones and transform it into the power of darkness and pain. β
"The source of corruption?" Reilly's heart moved, and he said, "If it exists long enough, it will produce the Pain Essence, which is a fourth-order material, and its value is not below the Bethrass Spider Crystal." β
"We have to find a way to get that skeleton out first, otherwise there will be a second god in the Black Valley sooner or later. Quicksand said.
Richard nodded, and gave a command in his consciousness, and immediately a large number of worker bees pounced on the source of corruption, and as soon as they came into contact with the black water, white smoke rose from the shells of the worker bees, and they let out a shrill chirp, not because of pain, but as a warning. Worker bees are neither afraid of pain nor of death, and their only consciousness is to carry out orders.
A large number of worker bees pounced on the source of corruption, and the skeleton of the star beast soon began to move, slowly being lifted up from the black water, and as soon as it left the water, more worker bees pounced, grabbed the bone, and flapped its wings desperately, so the skeleton slowly rose into the air.
The star chrysalis slowly descended from the air, it first spit out all the black bricks in its abdomen, and then hung down its tentacles to wrap around the bones of the star beast, and struggled to lift the skeleton that was even bigger than itself, and slowly flew towards the sky, although the speed of the star chrysalis was very slow, it could rise all the way to a height of thousands of meters, at this altitude, it was almost uninterceptable.
But Richard was still a little uneasy, and sent two hundred feathered serpents to escort him, including a hundred lightning feathered quells.
Watching the star chrysalis and the escorted feathered serpent slowly disappear into the clouds, Richard was a little relieved. The value of this skeleton is immense, and if it is given to Reilly and made into a Turbulent Needle, then Richard will not have to worry about not having enough energy in the half-plane when he becomes a legendary mage in the future. The lines on the bones are also a good object to learn, as they are a natural circle of concentrating energy that also contains the power of rules, according to which both Richard and Reilly can design new structures.
A wave suddenly rose in the source of corruption, and a large swarm of worker bees crawled out, and the worker bees that came out first died one after another, and finally only the three worker bees wrapped in the innermost were left, each holding a deep black crystal the size of an arm.
Essence of Pain.
It is the product of the entanglement of pain and darkness, condensed to the extreme, and can only be born in very rare environments, it is the love of mages, especially those who are good at illusion and spiritual magic, and they are even willing to exchange their life savings for a pain essence, a spell master like Daimei, if she wears a pain essence, then the negative magic power she casts can be increased by at least half, which is why the pain essence can be compared to spider crystals.
This source of corruption had apparently been around for a long time, so much so that three Pain Essences had been produced, the largest of which was twice as large as the smallest one, and the combined value of these three Pain Essences was equivalent to four Bethera Silk Spider Crystals, and this alone could be regarded as a good income from this trip to the Black Valley, and the Star Beast Skeleton was a priceless treasure.
Richard carefully put the three Pain Essences into the Sealing Box, and then looked around, feeling a little unsatisfied, so he asked Reilly, "Can your spatial ring hold this pool of corrupt liquid?" If you can take them all away, you can sell at least one top-level sacrifice." β
Reilly glanced at the chrysalis slowly moving away and asked, "You can't fit that big bug?"
"Just transporting the skeletons of the Star Beasts is already a struggle. Richard shook his head and said, "It will take four or five days for the Star Chrysalis to travel back and forth to the turbulent land, and we can't stay in the Black Valley for that long, otherwise we will have to face the full force of the Church of Courage." β
"And the Iron Triangle Empire. Reilly said with a smile.

One night passed in a busy way, and the worker bees dug dozens of burrows up to 100 meters deep in the Black Valley, but they could not find anything more valuable, so Reilly and the others left the Black Valley in the morning sun.
Once they were gone, the thousands of worker bees left behind began to clean up the soulless prisoners, and the worker bees were surprisingly efficient, and in just ten minutes, they had completed their task and began to return to the turbulent land.
That night, a snow-white war horse galloped into the Black Valley, and on the horse's back sat a middle-aged man with a majestic appearance, whose thick golden beard added a lot of momentum to him.
After arriving at the edge of the black valley, the middle-aged man who had an anxious face calmed down, he turned over and dismounted, and walked all the way to the valley, he took a steady step, and entered the valley along the route taken by Reilly and others, and there were prisoner corpses everywhere along the way, he squatted down next to a corpse, pulled the corpse's clothes, and looked carefully at the wounds below, the flesh and blood in this person's heart were blurred, it seemed that he was forcibly cut into the chest by some sharp weapon, and the heart was crushed, he looked at several corpses, the wounds were all the same, all of them were destroyed, and the scars on each corpse were quite similarγ
He soon stopped looking, but jumped on his horse and continued to run towards the center of the black valley, when he saw the temple of pain that had become a ruin, he was stunned for a moment, he could hardly believe his eyes, he blinked his eyes vigorously a few times, and then he realized that everything in front of him was true, his eyes immediately ignited a raging flame, and he snorted heavily, and then rode his horse to the ruins of the hall of pain.
At this point, the place where the Hall of Pain had been located had almost become an open space, and the man suddenly stopped his horse, barely believing his eyes. It was a moment before he rode his horse into the ruins of the Temple of Pain, and then fell silent. In front of him is the source of corruption that has been thoroughly unearthed.
The middle-aged man suddenly turned over and dismounted, found an open space and knelt down, and then began to pray silently. A moment later, the clouds in the sky suddenly tumbled violently, and countless tiny golden lightning bolts appeared, and an incomparably majestic aura descended. The middle-aged man slowly stood up, opened his eyes that had turned golden, he strode to the pit, leaned forward, looked down at the pit, his face suddenly flashed with anger, and roared: "My star beast remains...... Richard, Richard, you dare to snatch the remains of my star beast. β
The middle-aged man trembled, staring at the empty source of corruption, he was aging rapidly, his hair was turning gray at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his skin was wrinkled like a dry orange peel, in just a few minutes, it was equivalent to decades for this man, the man had involuntarily shown fear, but the golden light in his eyes did not fade at all, still staring at the empty black pool.
This is the consequence of using itself as a carrier, inheriting the will of the gods, and breaking the rules of the plane, will inevitably bear the corresponding price.
The middle-aged man seemed to struggle at last, but it was too late, he could no longer stand, and he plunged headlong into the pit, and in the process of falling, the last words spat out by the majestic voice were: "What a useless thing." β
With a plop, the man's body was not in the source of corruption, and the majestic will of the god of courage returned to the kingdom of God.
