The forest trees in the formation also gradually stabilized, the so-called practice makes perfect, it was really difficult to control these thousands of small cycles at first, and even a little rushed, but after getting used to it, I found that it was not so difficult. Now Lin Shu was finally able to spare some energy to observe the extent of the material energy accumulation outside the Dragon Nest Array, seeing that the energy gathering and diffusion formed a balanced state, Lin Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief, things seemed to be gradually developing towards the benign side, and now the question was when these greedy soul devouring creatures would be wiped out.

Seeing so many companions silently disappearing in a strange vortex that exudes tempting deliciousness, they can't stop them from moving forward, they are completely dominated by their own instincts, instinctively want to become stronger and bigger, but they only know that they continue to devour, simply assimilate, and then when they grow up, they have to split into two independent individuals because they can't control their bodies.

This large group of low-level magical creatures may or may not evolve after many, many years, but before that, Lin Shu really can't tolerate the existence of such a thing that will cause disaster to the existing advanced civilization.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Shu found that the soul-devouring creatures around him had gradually thinned, and the soul connection between himself and Nilaya had finally completely returned to normal.

Lin Shu promptly passed on the current operation of the Dragon's Lair Array to Nilaya, and sure enough, Nilaya's attention was immediately attracted to it. The transfer target was successful.

Time passed slowly. Finally, the last Soul Devouring creature also entered the range of the Dragon's Lair Array. However, Lin Shu carefully protected the last few surviving guys this time, and after trying various formations such as the Soul Consolidation Array, the Soul Locking Array, and the Heavenly Capital Trapping Spirit Array, Lin Shu found that as long as he used the formation formed by complex fluctuations, he could effectively control this relatively simple creature, and they kept their distance from the formation enchantment because they were afraid that the complex fluctuations would disturb the soul energy in their bodies.

Lin Shu temporarily refined a few simple props, locked up the remaining dozen or so soul devouring creatures, and prepared to go back and study slowly. Next, Lin Shu repeatedly performed several awakening techniques, searching as wide as possible from near and far, and after repeatedly confirming that there were no fish that slipped through the net, he ordered Xiaoxing to approach, but he still needed to maintain high vigilance.

While waiting for Xiaoxing's arrival, Lin Shu began to disassemble the Dragon's Lair Array, and when he put the disassembled parts into his ring, he suddenly found that there were a lot of strange crystal balls in his ring.

"This is beautiful! This is what those soul eaters have become?"

Jessie held up the crystal ball in her hand and looked at the light carefully. When light passes through the crystal ball, it is constantly distorted and scattered. Flashing with iridescent light, this means that the things inside the crystal ball are moving, according to Lin Shu, it should be a combination of soul power and material energy, since the soul energy inside is moving, it should emit soul fluctuations, and the strange thing is that there are no soul fluctuations around the crystal ball.

"Jessie, I think this is actually a high-grade soul gem!" Nilaya said with certainty after studying it for a while.

"Soul gems? No, I've seen soul gems, and those gems don't look like this, and they don't have this feeling of life in them. ”

"That's because the soul energy in the soul gems you have seen has been solidified by the material energy, but this one is different, in which the soul power is dominant, and the amount of material energy is small, so it will not be completely blocked by the material energy, so you will feel like there is life inside. ”

"Oh, so this is really a soul gem, and those soul gems, I mean the ones I've seen before, were also formed after the death of these soul eaters?"

Lin Shu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, it's just an ordinary powerful creature formed after death, if it's a soul devouring creature, there is no extreme environment, it is difficult to trap and kill them and then compress them into soul gems." ”

Jessie sighed, and continued to play with the beautiful crystal ball in her hand with some obsession, women naturally like shiny things, and dragons also like it, but Nilaya seems to be an exception, she is only interested in whether this soul gem can be built into a more efficient formation core, if feasible, it is estimated that it will greatly improve the efficiency and speed of the data processing core.

"Lin Shu, can this thing be used as a refining material?"

"You mean to use this to refine the core of the formation, right?"

"Hmm, is it possible?"

"In principle, of course it is feasible, the active ingredients in it will be restrained by the formation, but the difficulty of refining is very high, and it is easy to be wasted if you are not careful. ”

"It's good to be able to refine it, I wonder if you're planning how to raise this soul-devouring creature?"

Lin Shu smiled: "Those who know me"

"Stop, if you keep talking, Lin Wei is going crazy again, anyway, I guessed it again, right?"

"Not bad, huh"

Jessie suddenly raised her head: "Isn't this too dangerous, if this thing escapes, it won't be a problem." ”

Nilaya also nodded: "Jessie is right, this thing is really dangerous, a careless is a catastrophe, although this high-grade soul gem is indeed very precious, but is it worth taking such a big risk?"

Lin Shu thought about it very seriously, and said: "I also have this concern, if you only analyze it from the individuals of these soul devouring creatures, these guys are not very harmful to the people of our Xuanmen, unless there are huge numbers."

"Isn't it just a huge amount, can you raise a small number of soul gems to refine soul gems?"

Before Lin Shu could finish speaking, Nilaya interrupted Lin Shu's words, and Lin Shu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, it takes at least ten thousand of these creatures to refine a soul gem. ”

"Then what about the impact of tens of thousands of soul-devouring creatures on the children of the Xuanmen?"

"Anyone below the end of the external sense can't resist so many soul eaters, but these soul eaters have weaknesses, as long as they carry a simple magic weapon with them, or learn a simple exorcism, they can easily resist these simple-minded creatures. ”

"Exorcism? Why haven't I heard of it? Nilaya asked curiously.

"Well, I just came up with a spell specifically for this soul-eating creature. ”

Nilaya suddenly thought about it, but Nilaya still shook her head and said, "There are still two questions, one is whether you can use magic instead of magic to expel these spirit eaters, and the second is whether you can find the traces of these spirit eaters without warning?"

Lin Shu nodded appreciatively and said, "You think very thoughtfully, yes, these two questions are very important." First of all, it is possible to deal with this creature with magical energy, which requires the development of a magical exorcism, but it is not difficult. As for the second problem, I'm going to use another way to solve it, in fact, this method can also solve both of your problems at once, and that is to transform the Soul Eater. ”

"Transformation?"

"Yes, transform! Make the core of the Soul Eater into a special structure, so that they can actively emit soul fluctuations outward, and this soul wave will be set to the magic wave form of luminescence, in that case, as soon as this kind of thing appears, it can be detected with the naked eye, even if it is invisible to the naked eye, it can be detected by magic energy fluctuations, and we can also make this wave component into the main structure of the soul of the Soul Eater, once this component is attacked, the soul structure of the Spirit Eater will be scattered. ”

Nilaya's eyes lit up, Lin Shu's method was indeed a good solution to all problems, if this kind of soul eater creatures could be observed by the naked eye and would be destroyed by magical attacks, they would no longer be terrifying, so their value would be highlighted.

"But what if someone puts it to good use?"

"You mean contract summoning beasts?"

"yes, if someone controls these guys, won't it become a very powerful assassination method?"

"Well, you're thinking too much, don't people have fewer assassination methods now? I'm not afraid of more than that, and besides, I don't plan to spread this soul-devouring creature to the outside, I just want to treat it as a unique species within the Xuanmen. ”

"You want to, but others will inevitably blush when they see it. ”

Lin Shu spread his hands, this question is really difficult to answer, but Lin Shu is not the kind of person who is afraid of wolves and tigers, since the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, a little harm to Lin Shu is acceptable, in fact, this creature is not as terrible as imagined, individually, it takes some effort to kill an ordinary person.

Nilaya understood Lin Shu's thoughts very well, although she still had some reservations, but presumably as she learned more about this creature, she should be able to find more ways to deal with this creature.

After all, high-grade soul gems were extremely important to improve the level of skill of the Xuanmen and even the entire civilization, and for this, it was understandable that Nilaya would take some risks.

"Okay, but I suggest you work into ways to restrain them first, and if you can transform them, you might as well make them more vulnerable, anyway, all you need is their ability to collect and assimilate discrete soul energy, not how powerful they are. ”

"Hehe, I understand, you can rest assured, leave this matter to me, before the official start, I will let you pass the purpose of the sample and the whole plan. ”

"What do you mean, drive me away?"

"No, aren't you busy? It's taking up so much of your time!"

Nilaya rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Very good, I will tell Lin Wei in detail about this time." ”

"Oh no"

Lin Shu's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, Niraya had teleported away, Jessie covered her mouth and smiled secretly, Lin Shu turned her head to look, but she pretended to study the soul gem ball in her hand. (To be continued......)
