Chapter 285: Soul Eater
After Ji Qingli learned about these things, he knew that his body was destroyed, and his consciousness would be eliminated by the red light ball sooner or later. His soul would become the nourishment to promote the evolution of the red light ball. While his memory still existed, he made up his mind and took the initiative to merge with the red light ball. In the end, Ji Qingli temporarily dominated the red light ball with a slight advantage.
The reason why Ji Cunxi was able to bind with the sickle was because the sickle was still in its initial state at that time.
The red light ball gradually became stronger, but Ji Cunxi's mental strength improved slowly. If it continued like this, the sickle would automatically terminate the relationship after being upgraded, and even backfire on its master.
Ji Qingli understood all these things clearly. He took advantage of the connection between the red light ball and Ji Cunxi to tell Ji Cunxi everything he knew. While he was still able to control the red light ball, he helped Ji Cunxi establish a soul contract with the sickle-shaped knife and moved the red light ball into Ji Cunxi's sea of consciousness. As long as the sickle-shaped knife was upgraded, Ji Cunxi would be recognized by the new consciousness.
In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about the sickle being snatched away, and he would have room to deal with Yang Chao.
The above are all the scenes in the ball of light that Rong Xianxian grabbed head-on, which is also Ji Cunxi’s memory.
Rong Xianxian felt a little sad after reading it.
When she saw Ji Cunxi fall into a state of mental confusion because of this knife, she felt that this kind of evil weapon would sooner or later devour its owner, and she didn't understand why some people still treated it as a treasure?
However, knowing that it had the characteristics and instinct to devour souls, Rong Xianxian felt a chill in her heart towards this knife.
It's so scary. When fighting with others, just a small scratch can slowly wear away a person's vitality and soul. You can only feel at ease if you have such a weapon in your own hands.
Rong Xianxian separated a trace of her mental power and drilled into the red light ball that was gradually falling into a deep sleep after the impurities were removed. Through this trace of mental power, she could feel the bean-sized light spot that was growing inside the red light ball.
Rong Xianxian's spiritual power was involuntarily attracted to the light spot, entangled and swirled, "hum" Rong Xianxian's entire soul was black, and when she woke up, she found that she had appeared in the foggy space. The red straight knife, which was originally designed to counter souls and Rong Xianxian was almost swallowed up after entering, can now come and go freely.
Rong Xianxian's spiritual power and the bean-sized light spot have merged into one. You are in me and I am in you, and we are inseparable.
Through Ji Cunxi's memory, the upgraded sickle knife will not only change its shape, but will also be upgraded from a spiritual weapon to a soul weapon.
A spiritual weapon is a weapon that uses one's own spiritual energy to control, communicate and nourish, while a soul weapon is a weapon that is connected to the spirit and soul and uses mental power to drive, communicate and nourish.
If this is the case, then the barrier bead and the soul-calming bell in Rong Xianxian's hand seem to be weapons of this type. Of course, the other two are auxiliary, and this red straight knife can be regarded as the strongest force output.
Rong Xianxian placed the knife in the foggy space and did not intend to use it easily. If it was used too many times and people knew how powerful the knife was, it would definitely attract fear and covetousness. She was not afraid of one, two, ten or eight enemies, but was afraid of arousing public anger, which would be troublesome.
After all, after knowing the characteristics of this weapon, if it were not for the fact that this weapon could be in her own hands, Rong Xianxian would only want to destroy it as soon as possible.
Now the knife has changed from its original sickle shape to a red straight knife, and most of those who have seen the situation after being injured by the sickle-shaped knife have stayed in Binyang or were killed on the road. There are almost no members of the folk group who followed all the way from Chongzhou left, and they should not be associated with the knife.
Based on the characteristics of this knife, Rong Xianxian named it Soul Eater.
On the second day, Rong Xianxian used the excuse of chasing a fleeing monster to test the power of the Soul Devouring Sword in the wild where no one was paying attention. She killed the monster with one blow, and the monster's soul was devoured by the Soul Devouring Sword. However, Rong Xianxian did not feel any effect from the monster's residual soul on her, and the monster's blood and vitality did not disappear.
In Ji Cunxi's memory, Rong Xianxian once saw a monster that was killed on the spot by the sickle-shaped knife having its blood and vitality sucked out. Could it be that the Soul-Devouring Knife lost this ability after being upgraded?
The red light spot that was still sleeping inside the Soul-Devouring Sword had no interest in the new food. Rong Xianxian watched as the monster's soul was wrapped by the sticky and stagnant substance inside the Soul-Devouring Sword, torn into pieces, and turned into a lot of pure soul power that was sent to the valley where the red light spot was.
Rong Xianxian felt a chill on her back. These sticky and stagnant substances seemed to be more powerful than before. No wonder she didn't feel the influence of the monster's residual soul on her just now. These substances seemed to have the effect of refining the soul. They had decomposed and torn apart the monster's soul with remaining memories and emotions, and only extracted pure soul power and transported it to the center.
These sticky and stagnant substances definitely did not have such power before, otherwise Ji Cunxi would not be affected by the residual souls of monsters, causing his mind to become confused frequently. Moreover, if these sticky and stagnant substances had the power they have now, with Ji Qingshi's soul strength, it would be impossible for him to maintain that trace of consciousness.
Rong Xianxian looked at the corpse of the monster that died under the Soul-Devouring Sword in front of her. There was no black gas spreading from the blade. The monster's corpse was full of flesh and blood, without any change. It seemed that after the upgrade, the Soul-Devouring Sword really lost the ability to devour the essence of qi, blood and vitality to feed back the host.
After coming to this conclusion, Rong Xianxian felt relieved. If something that was not her own entered her body, it would only make her feel uneasy. If her own strength was not gained through cultivation step by step, her foundation would be unstable, which would definitely cause trouble.
The upgraded Soul-Devouring Sword does not require spiritual energy to drive it, but needs to be controlled by mental power to devour the soul. If it is not driven by mental power, the Soul-Devouring Sword will not devour the soul.
The full length of the Soul-Devouring Sword is almost the same as the height of an adult, weighing fifty to sixty kilograms. The sword is wide and has a broad blade, and is extremely sharp, capable of cutting hair with a blow. When it is not controlled by mental power, it is just an ordinary sharp sword. In the future, when fighting and killing the enemy, there is no need to worry about the previous taboos. It happened that Rong Xianxian did not have a suitable long and cold weapon, and this Soul-Devouring Sword just filled this gap.
In the future I can carry a two-meter-long sword and go into battle to kill the enemies. Hahahaha, Rong Xianxian couldn't help but imagine a scene in her mind of her carrying a sword and killing everyone.
Rong Xianxian was in a good mood after solving the hidden danger of Ji Cunxi. As her strength grew, her thoughts were constantly changing. Instead of cautiously avoiding the dangers lurking around her, it would be better to take the initiative and eliminate all the hidden dangers and enemies that threaten the safety of them and their child.
Anyway, in this world, as long as you keep things secret, no one will bother you.
