Chapter 120: A Transcendent Creature on the Tip of the Tongue 1
It's a strange creature that attacks Rhythm.
Its body resembled a giant lizard or a giant crocodile, lying on its stomach on the ground, but its tail was transformed into a large, spiky bone hammer - and it had smashed its tail into the place where it was.
An attack missed, and it twisted slightly, staring coldly at Yanluge with its vertical pupil-like eyes characteristic of cold-blooded animals.
"What the hell, huh? Doesn't seem like a pollutant? Is it just a simple beast? Looking at the unfamiliar creature that he had never seen before but was full of aggression, Yan Luge showed a slightly interested expression, "No matter what it is, let's grab one and take a look first." ”
When the creature in front of him raised the bone hammer on its tail again, Yan Yuge also sneered, and opened countless tentacle-like phantom limbs from behind.
Ten seconds later.
With two tentacles, she dragged the creature's two corpses in front of her.
"It took a little bit of force, and I accidentally tore it in two." Yanluge muttered, casually tearing it into more pieces, and observing its body structure in a violent dissecting way, "There are no traces of pollution. The strength of the flesh is about the same as that of ordinary creatures of the Aquamarine Star. The body structure is also similar. Oh, I know why it's attacking me. ”
Yan Luge glanced at the place he had just stepped on when he came.
There was a nest made of dead grass, and there were some broken eggshells and flowing egg flowers.
And he happened to step on this nest when he jumped in space, and there were still a few eggshells on his heels.
He stepped on someone's nest, the kind that had just laid eggs.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, I dare next time." Yan Luge apologized without guilt, picked up a relatively intact leg from the pile of torn corpses, stretched out his finger and dipped a little of the blood of the alien beast that was still flowing, and put it in his mouth to taste it.
After a while, Yan Luge concluded: "The flesh and blood have traces of being transformed by spiritual power, but the air has no escaping aura, so it is speculated that the environment here is 'low spirit', and there is food rich in spiritual power." ”
A low spiritual environment means that the total reserve of spiritual power is lower than the total amount of spiritual power that can be absorbed by the will of the living body, just like a water cup that only fills half a glass of water, and all the spiritual power is attached to the will of the living body.
The high spirit environment means that the total reserve of spiritual power is higher than the total amount of spiritual power that can be absorbed by the will of the living body, just like a water cup filled with water and constantly overflowing, there is a large amount of "unclaimed" spiritual power escaping in the air.
Between the two, there is also a mid-spirit environment where the two are just in balance, and there is neither an escaping aura, nor a lack of spiritual power attached to the will.
Yan Luge's eyes lit up.
This is one of the reasons why he tried in every possible way to find a place where the godkillers were buried.
Because normally, Reiki is conserved and immortal.
After the aura is absorbed, it will be solidified in the body by the transcendent with the will of the transcendent as the core.
After the death of the transcendent, his own will disappears, and the aura that he has lost to rely on will naturally escape and return to heaven and earth, giving birth to all things.
A ninth-order transcendent who has mastered the ability of the Nine Stars, the aura absorbed in his lifetime is in the unit of "100 million yuan". When he dies, all these auras will be released and feed back to nature.
In ancient times, why were there sayings such as "falling leaves return to their roots" and "foxes die in the first hill", and why the strong people in the cultivation era often had to return to the sect with their last breath, it was precisely because of this.
Because the place where he sits will become a blessed cave overnight, for the benefit of future generations.
But there are exceptions.
Normally, Reiki is conserved and immortal – note that it is "usually".
Four thousand years ago, the power that could completely wear down the aura appeared—pollution.
Spiritual power can fight pollution and consume pollution, but conversely, pollution can also consume spiritual power.
The spiritual power lost in the fight against the polluting power is gone forever.
The existence of polluting forces completely breaks the law of conservation of aura.
And what is even more terrifying is that polluting forces do not follow the "law of conservation", but the "law of diffusion".
As long as there is a pollutant in the world, it can infect, replicate, and multiply itself indefinitely like a cancer cell until it is worn out by spiritual power, or it can turn all living beings in the world into its kind.
Think about how scary this is.
Yan Lu Ge can imagine what a terrifying and desperate situation the cultivators faced four thousand years ago.
The gods descended and took away the source of aura, causing the entire Aquamarine Star to change from a "high spirit" to a "spiritless" environment in the blink of an eye.
However, the cultivators here have to face an infinite number of multiplying pollutants without being replenished by external spiritual power.
They can only wear it out at the cost of their own flesh and blood.
They eventually succeeded.
The era of cultivators has passed, and on the devastated earth, mortals who have lost their extraordinary power have once again created a brilliant civilization with their hands.
"Since there is still an aura in this subspace, it proves that the god killer is the victorious side in the end." Yanluge muttered to himself, "Although the god-killing body died, he succeeded in killing the filthy beast.
Then, the aura contained in his body was re-released, transforming the creatures here.
"That's good news.
"The specifics need to be investigated again.
"Of course, it would be even better if we could bring back all the things that we found that contained spiritual energy to refine spiritual power potions.
"Hmm, this big lizard is also an extraordinary creature, I don't know if it's delicious?"
Rhythm Song will use his tentacles to bring a lizard's leg to his mouth, peel the skin, and prepare to nibble on it.
Gnaw raw.
Don't talk about why he is so fierce, the group of transcendents in his previous life are basically so fierce.
The reason is simple.
Reiki is a force attached to the "will".
From the ego will of humans and all kinds of life, to the weak instinctive will of plants, cells, and bacteria, they can all be captured and attached by Reiki.
However, completely volitionless existences, such as stones, steel, and water streams, cannot attract aura to attach themselves to - the low-end version of the artificial mind, and the high-end version of the spirit, both have the "will" itself before they can control the aura.
Therefore, in the setting of this world, there are no such things as "spirit stones", "spirit mines", and "spirit veins".
Otherwise, you can wake up laughing when you dream.
In this spiritless environment, if the transcendent wants to obtain spiritual power, unless he is particularly lucky and enters the spiritual energy at the right time to escape, he must extract it from the creatures that have received the baptism of spiritual power - animals, plants, spirits, microorganisms, as long as there is an instinct of "survival", it is possible to become the carrier of spiritual power, that is, the raw material of spiritual power medicine.
After the death of a transcendent creature, because the body cells have not died, the spiritual power will temporarily attach to the cellular will of the corpse, but the length of time it remains depends on the activity of the cells.
At this time, if the meat is grilled and boiled, as soon as the cell activity disappears, the spiritual power will naturally dissipate.
If you want to absorb the spiritual power in the flesh, you either use special equipment to collect the escaping spiritual energy and make it into spiritual power potions, or eat it raw.
Yan Luge doesn't have any special equipment for extracting spiritual power potions around him now, and his temperament is still relatively informal, so there is nothing that he can't eat in his eyes.
He literally took a bite raw.
