Without a second thought, Li Xuanzu absorbed the third-tier spirit core belonging to the zombie groom.
However, this time is a little different.
The energy of the third-tier spirit core was somewhat volatile. After entering his body, Li Xuanzu immediately turned red-hot, and his entire body surface looked like a crab that had been steamed.
Moreover, after the third-order energy entered, it actually began to devour the other energies in Li Xuanzu's body. It was simply devouring; Li Xuanzu didn't need to use his divine sense to try to balance it. The second-order energy didn't even try to block it, and several energies merged with the third-order energy into one.
Seeing the energy body that had grown two sizes larger, Li Xuanzu became curious and tried absorbing a few first-tier spirit cores.
The result was that it was swallowed up by that energy as soon as it was absorbed, but it was just like a piece of food stuck in a tooth; the energy body didn't show any change at all.
Even after absorbing several more second-tier spirit cores, the effect was the same; the energy body only grew slightly larger, without any new abilities.
What's going on?
Li Xuanzu was puzzled. Could it be that once a third-tier spiritual energy user starts to absorb other spiritual cores due to differences in spiritual energy, they will no longer be unable to do so?
Thinking of this, Li Xuanzu gripped the other third-tier spirit core in his hand, carrying Qian Li in one hand and dragging Hui Xin with the other, and walked straight out of the small mountain village.
The road they came from was still littered with zombies. In addition to the many zombie corpses on the ground, there were also a few human corpses that looked like they had just been infected. Judging from the camouflage uniforms they were wearing, Li Xuanzu could guess what had happened.
It's likely that those soldiers didn't wait for Leng An and the others to leave together, which led to them being outnumbered and exhausted, eventually becoming infected.
Leng An has a sufficient number of second-tier spirit cores. As long as he doesn't summon too many second-tier zombies at once, he can swim freely in the sea of zombies. This is the summoning style.
Of course, when faced with the absolute power of a third-tier zombie, the summoned zombies are too stupid to understand the general commands. The zombie groom's arrival is like harvesting leeks.
Feeling the continuous power surging from his leg muscles, Li Xuanzu ran half a mile in the blink of an eye, even while carrying two other people.
After absorbing the third-tier spirit core, Li Xuanzu's physical attributes reached a new level. He didn't know his own strength yet, but even ten zombie grooms couldn't defeat him.
When they returned to where they had parked the truck, the soldiers were nowhere to be seen. Only Leng An and his companions, along with other civilian psychics, were waiting.
"What happened to Qian Li and Hui Xin?" Leng An was very surprised that Li Xuanzu was able to come out. He was about to ask when he saw the two people that Li Xuanzu had put down and asked about their injuries.
"It's nothing, I just fainted from exhaustion, I'll wake up in a bit." Li Xuanzu shook his slightly sore arm. The long battle hadn't been easy for him, and his hand wasn't much better when he was exchanging punches with the zombie groom.
Now that my nerves aren't so tense, my stamina naturally comes through.
“You’re out, which means…” Leng An stared at Li Xuanzu, trying to verify something.
"As you thought, that poor couple is dead. I will divide the spirit core with Qian Li, so you don't need to think about it." Li Xuanzu's muscles ached so much that he didn't even have the strength to lift his hand.
"By the way, let's talk about the third-tier psionicist. Why can I absorb other first and second-tier spirit cores with different attributes?" Li Xuanzu asked, leaning closer to Leng An.
“Since you’ve already tried it, let me briefly explain. Being a third-tier psionicist is a minor transformation. First and second-tier psionicists don’t have enough energy, and absorbing spirit cores of other attributes can cause energy conflicts. But for a third-tier psionicist, as long as you don’t absorb third-tier spirit cores of different attributes, first and second-tier spirit cores are just nourishment for you.” Leng An gave a general overview of the strength of a third-tier psionicist.
Li Xuanzu nodded to indicate that he understood, and immediately told everyone to prepare to leave. Clearing out this number of zombies would not be something that could be done in a day or two.
