Chapter 472: A Strange Spring
......
Ye Xiao held his forehead, a little unwilling to admit that these nerds were his subordinates.
The stream in front of him is crystal clear, there are a few pebbles, and a few aquatic plants can be counted clearly, it looks like there is no difference from the stream before and after, but it can improve spiritual power, if it weren't for the spring, Ye Xiao couldn't think of any other reason.
Yang Youji and the others are not stupid, but they are too excited and affect their thinking ability, and as soon as Ye Xiao mentions the spring, they immediately understand it. However, Ye Xiao had an order first, even if they were reluctant, they could only work according to the order.
Yang Yuji reluctantly put away the storage ring, put down the black chain mail tied to his waist again, turned around and walked away with a bow, out of sight.
Sawa reluctantly got up from the ground, patted his buttocks, went downstream to claim the four leopards, and quickly followed Yoyuki.
White Tiger and Xuanwu looked at each other a little stunned, then bounced up from the ground, rushed to the edge of the stream excitedly, rolled up their sleeves and began to slowly grope under the water.
Seeing that they had already acted separately, Ye Xiao didn't bother to care about them anymore, but instead stood up, paced two steps along the edge of the stream, and looked down at the movements of the white tiger and Xuanwu.
The total distance of the effective spring is only half a meter, and the pebbles at the bottom of the water are no more than a dozen at most, Xuanwu and the white tiger went into battle together, and after a while, they turned over to the sky, but they did not find the slightest shadow of the spring.
But where there is a spring, there is always water gushing out, and it is easy to find. Today, this is not the case at all.
Both Xuanwu and Baihu were a little depressed, and they touched it again without giving up, but they still didn't gain the slightest. The two of them frowned, staring at the stream in front of them, as if the stream had an enmity with them, and the Sichuan character in the center of their eyebrows could almost kill a fly.
Ye Xiao's attention was not on the two of them.
When Xuanwu touched the bottom of the water just now, a fist-sized black stone in his hand suddenly flashed a ghostly light, but the light was faint. And there was not the slightest energy fluctuation, Ye Xiao almost thought that he had seen it wrong.
Ye Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes stared at the stone, and suddenly said, "Xuanwu, you move your hand to the right a little." Yes, that's it, don't move!"
His eyes snapped open, and a flash of joy flashed across his eyes.
That's right! Just when Xuanwu almost touched the stone, a little ghostly light flashed on the stone, but Xuanwu ignored it. It's as if you didn't see it at all.
This situation is not normal no matter how you look at it.
This stream is no different from other parts of the stream, since there is no spring, there must be something in the stream that has been contaminated with the stream, which gives the stream a special effect. And that special thing is most likely that the stone!
"Qinglong, you go, bring the black stone that Xuanwu has in hand!"
Ye Xiao pointed to the stone. Without looking back, he said to the green dragon beside him.
"Your Majesty......" Qinglong's expression twisted subtly, "Xuanwu doesn't have any black stones at hand. ”
Hearing this, Xuanwu raised his head, looked at Ye Xiao, and then looked at his hand. A dazed face. Even the white tiger next to him had a very strange expression.
Suddenly, the white tiger seemed to think of something, and Leng Buding put his hand into the stream. Slowly groped along Xuanwu's hand, his expression a little dignified.
However, Ye Xiao watched the white tiger's hand again and again. Repeatedly slashing over the edge of the stone, but you can't touch it. However, because of this, the frequency of the ghostly light flashing on the stone increased significantly, allowing Ye Xiao to see more clearly.
Ye Xiao's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
Without any further attempt, he walked directly to the edge of the stream, possessed it, and picked up the inconspicuous black stone.
The stone is less than the size of a palm, the weight is not heavy, it is similar to an ordinary stone, the surface color is dark, and if you look carefully, it seems to be covered with a layer of ash, and it feels cool to the touch.
In Ye Xiao's hand, the stone seemed to be very unwilling, and the black ghost light continued to flicker, but Ye Xiao was not affected at all, holding the stone steadily, watching it flicker, his eyes were a little weird.
"Your Majesty, you ...... What are you holding in your hand?" Qinglong's eyes fell on Ye Xiao's palm, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
In his eyes, there was clearly nothing in Ye Xiao's palm, but the water droplets that slipped around him clearly outlined a faint outline, indicating that there must be something there, but he couldn't see it.
Even if it is a ghost among the undead, he can't see the specific form with the naked eye, and he can know the general shape through energy induction. But he didn't even feel the slightest sense of what was in front of him, whether it was vision or energy induction, he didn't feel it at all!
If he hadn't been careful in his observation, I'm afraid he would have thought that His Majesty was holding a ball of air!
Qinglong's attention was all on Ye Xiao's hands, and he didn't know that his reaction could already be regarded as calm.
The eyes of Baihu and Xuanwu were like ordinary people seeing ghosts, shocked, incredible, and incredulous, and their eyes were almost glaring out of their sockets. The two of them were closest to the stone just now, and the impact in their hearts was far stronger than that of the green dragon.
Suzaku, who has always been calm, reflexively drew out his dagger, staring at Ye Xiao's palm with his eyes, as if trying to stare out of a ghost.
Ye Xiao saw their reactions in her eyes, and her mood suddenly felt so relieved.
As the master with the worst combat effectiveness, he finally has something better than them.
If he guessed correctly, the stone, whether self-conscious or not, must at least have its own illusionary effect. And the reason why he can see this thing is only one reason, because he is the master of the Zerg system, and the Zerg system happens to be immune to this soul-type illusion.
The reason why its original owner dared to throw it in the stream like this is probably because of this characteristic, and he is not afraid of stealing it at all.
At this moment, the black stone he grasped in the palm of his hand seemed to have given up resistance, and the black ghost light no longer flickered, and turned into a gray and inconspicuous stone again.
The few people who had been staring at Ye Xiao's palm finally saw the original appearance of the stone, and their eyes almost fell off again. It's just such a thing, and he actually deceived everyone except Ye Xiao just now?
"If I'm right, this stone is the spring we're looking for. Ye Xiao stretched out his other hand and poked the stone. The stone did not react in any way.
"White Tiger, Xuanwu, you two try again to see if the stream still has the effect of washing your soul. Ye Xiao raised her chin, raised her voice to talk to White Tiger and Xuanwu, and called their souls back by the way.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
White Tiger and Xuanwu came back to their senses instantly, quickly stuffed back the eyeballs that had come out of the window, and directly leaned over to the side of the stream and took a handful of water into their mouths.
After pouring it, both of them were stunned, and then their eyes welled up with joy: "Your Majesty, it has no effect!"
After that, the two of them didn't care about anything else, they stood up directly, wiped their hands casually on the trouser legs of the black suit, and rushed to Ye Xiao, looking at the stone in Ye Xiao's palm with burning eyes: "Your Majesty, can we just take it back and have a fountain of our own soul?"
"Yes~" Ye Xiao smiled and narrowed her eyes, and she was also very happy in her heart.
He doesn't have to fight himself, and he doesn't have much need for mental power, and when necessary, he can even directly mobilize the spiritual power of the entire Zerg for defense. But the worm generals under his command can get a lot of benefits from the Spring of Souls.
Especially at the god level, the relationship between strength and soul is even closer. For insect generals who are good at physical strength, it is easy to improve physical strength, but it is difficult to improve mental strength, with the help of the Soul Spring, the success rate of their independent upgrade will be greatly improved.
For insect generals who are good at soul and spiritual power, such as Nivana, the queen of blades, and Adelina, the goddess of the deep sea, the strength and purity of their souls directly affect their strength and combat effectiveness, and any increase is precious.
Thinking of the benefits after getting the Soul Spring, Ye Xiao's mood suddenly became extremely comfortable.
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Xiao finally came back to his senses. Seeing that everyone else was staring at the stone in their hands without blinking, he easily put the stone into the storage ring.
Xuanwu, White Tiger, Qinglong and the others looked at Ye Xiao's eyes and suddenly became complaining, as if Ye Xiao had robbed them of their beloved food.
The corners of Ye Xiao's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but glare at them: "Send out a person, go and call Yang Yuji and them back." Ready to go. ”
As he spoke, he simply turned his back to a few people, and came out of sight.
Ye Xiao lowered her head and stroked the gem set in the storage ring, thinking of the contents inside, her mood became happy again. He now had a thin silver ring in his left hand, and two storage rings, one from the original one, and the other black one from the banshee leader, who had just confessed to his lordship.
Thinking of the contents of the banshee leader's storage ring, Ye Xiao couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, and then suddenly froze.
Something suddenly occurred to him. He seems to have stuffed Xiaobao into the storage ring before, but don't suffocate it~
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao quickly took Xiaobao out of the storage ring and put it in his palm. I saw that Xiaobao's originally oily gray hair had become messy, as if he had been ravaged, and the light in his eyes had dimmed a lot.
"Squeak~"
Xiaobao yelled at Ye Xiao twice in his dying breath, and his mung bean-sized eyes were watery, as if he was about to cry. Suffocate Xiaobao!~ I knew that there would be today, and it would never hold on to the black spar at that time!
Ye Xiao hurriedly comforted Xiaobao a few words, fed it something more, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it had finally recovered its spirits.
The next thing they are going to is the Demon Plantation Garden, and how many good things they can find depends on Xiaobao's performance. It can't drop its chain at this time!
Just when Ye Xiao found the spring and was about to leave for the next stop, the gate of the underground palace in the center of the kingdom of God ushered in a guest shrouded in golden light.
