Chapter 343: The Long-Destroyed Sect

Ever since this thing suddenly woke up during a fight last time, Ji Ruo hasn't used the divine sword form of the Wanhua Arsenal for some time.

To be honest, although Ji Ruo did not show any specific symptoms at that time, he was indeed left with some psychological trauma - during the fight, the sword suddenly came alive and attacked him together with the enemy. Who would feel good about this?

As a result, the divine sword form of Wanhua Arsenal was neglected by Ji Ruo for quite a while.

And now, the reason why Ji Ruo took it out was that after a period of time, the degree of integration between the Avatar of Truth and the Wanhua Arsenal was further enhanced, and the Avatar of Truth had fallen into a deep sleep again due to the effect of the [Quilt Sealing Technique]. Even the quilt had been completely integrated with the Avatar of Truth. Naturally, the situation of 'suddenly waking up while fighting with weapons' would no longer happen.

Furthermore, the attacks of the 'Divine Sword Form' come with divine damage, which is to some extent equivalent to having its own attack effects. These Alchemy Golems are in such a strange state that normal attacks have no effect on them at all.

Of course, the most important thing is that Ji Ruo doesn't want to use his little wooden stick to chop these disgusting-looking guys.

Leave all the dirty work to the magic sword.

Anyway, before being transformed into a sword by Ji Ruo, the Sword was also a very hateful guy.

…

Emily continued to chant purification magic to dispel the various negative effects brought by the Alchemy Puppets for Ji Ruo and the others. As far as the current situation is concerned, Emily's role is even greater than Rosie's.

Ji Ruo held the 'Divine Sword' and chopped out several sets of 'Blade Waltz' in succession with light and graceful movements. Although the 'Divine Sword' did not have a blade, Ji Ruo had the buff of [Sword and Blade], so it was very easy for him to comprehend a sword intent that could bless a blade.

After not being affected by the negative magical states of the alchemy golems, Ji Ruo quickly chopped them into pieces.

"The plan against God doesn't work! The target's threat level has increased! Activate the high-level God only if the opponent——"

The head was still pointing fingers at the world, Ji Ruo squatted in front of him, holding the magic sword and slapping him hard: "Shut up, you only have a brain left and you're still busy!"

'Pia~ji!'

The sleeping Truth's clone's lips came into close contact with the chattering lips of the head, and the head was instantly flattened.

Red and white...did not appear.

As expected, not a drop of blood flowed out, and the broken tissues were still connected, and were even approaching each other at a very slow speed.

Looking at the other Alchemy Doll fragments, it was the same.

It's as if they can be put back together again...

"What the hell is this! It can't even be killed?!"

The plan is messed up.

It's been chopped into pieces, why is it still alive? Is its vitality so strong?

"Ji Ruo, come over and help. This friend whose name is difficult to pronounce seems to be suffocating." Emily couldn't help but say.

"Ah? Squad leader!"

Ji Ruo quickly turned around, used his skill and strength, and slashed Liang Shixian with a sword.

After moving around vigorously, the two inner seals were broken, but the outermost energy seal that could limit the divine power was still there.

There's nothing Ji Ruo can do about this, but fortunately we still have Rosie.

Rosie's body flashed with black light, and the whole cat turned into a tiny black lightning, circling around Liang Shixian rapidly, and in an instant, it completely ate up the energy seal on his body.

"suck--"

Liang Shixian, whose face had turned purple, gasped for air: "Yes, we're saved!"

"Squad leader, next time you encounter this kind of situation, just switch to internal energy. You also know how to 'circulate the energy'. The energy will circulate in Xingxuan, and it will be no problem to hold on for two or three days."

Liang Shixian scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "I'm just worried that you can't handle it alone. There are so many of them, and their methods are so weird."

Ji Ruo was amused: "You don't have to hold it in like that. You're already at the Xingxuan realm, squad leader, why are you still so short-lived?"

Liang Shixian's face suddenly turned dark: "Go away, I worried about you for nothing!"

"Ha ha!"

Sheila said with a resentful expression: "You two, can you please resolve the matter completely before we talk? The magic-forbidden barrier is still there!"

"Ah, sorry, sorry... How do you break this barrier?"

After Sheila breathlessly told Ji Ruo the solution, he took the sword and went to find and destroy the so-called "core of the barrier".

This matter cannot be delayed because not only Sheila, but also Ash and his sister are not in good condition.

Magic is very important to the indigenous people of Mother Earth.

Especially living beings.

The spiritual energy of the earth and heaven of the Mother Earth Continent is due to its own special belief in Shinto rules. After the elemental gods condensed their divinity through primitive worship, the conscious elemental gods directly differentiated the spiritual energy of the earth and heaven into various elemental forces.

Therefore, the creatures on Mother Earth have lived in a variety of elemental forces since childhood.

Elemental forces will be absorbed unconsciously by living beings. Over time, some of the elemental forces will accumulate in the bodies of living beings, and even reintegrate into a special force.

Of course, this power is not Reiki.

Take cocktails as an example. Even if the ingredients are the same, if they are combined in different proportions or even in a different order, they may become two different cocktails.

And the more magical spiritual energy of heaven and earth cannot be reproduced so easily.

Depending on individual constitution, the affinity for various elemental forces is different, so everyone's magic power also shows different degrees of bias. After becoming a professional, choosing a more friendly element as the direction of development will achieve twice the result with half the effort... ahem, this knowledge point is not very important.

Back to the topic.

The operating principle of the magic-forbidden barrier is to extract all elemental forces within the range of the barrier in an instant, forming an elemental vacuum area.

For the indigenous people of Mother Earth, this is, to some extent, like the oxygen content in the air suddenly becoming extremely thin.

There is no elemental power in the surrounding world, but there is magic power in the human body, so the magic power in the human body will begin to dissipate, and after leaving the body, it will be extracted by the magic-forbidden barrier, just like being continuously squeezed by a huge vacuum pump.

This would make them extremely weak.

At least Sheila could still speak. Ash and his sister had been suffering from malnutrition for many years. Although their diet had improved a lot after following Ji Ruo, it was still short after all, and they were seriously affected by the forbidden magic barrier. In just a short while, Nancy, who was a little younger, was almost in shock.

Fortunately, Emily has "backup hidden magic" that can support her to release some ordinary healing or recovery magic, so she doesn't have to worry about her life safety.

After treating Ash and his sister, Emily squatted beside Sheila and said cheerfully, "Goddess of Death, is that all? How come you can't even withstand a magic barrier?"

Veins throbbed on the weak Silla's forehead: "The only thing I don't want to be laughed at by a fool like you!"

"Eh?" Emily tilted her head with a wicked smile: "But if I hadn't been there just now, we would have been in danger. You saw it, too. Although they were not affected, they couldn't do anything with these alchemical puppets. Why don't you thank me?"

Sheila was silent for a moment, and said in a whisper: "Thank you..."

Emily exaggeratedly put her hands to her ears and shouted, "What? What is the proud goddess of death saying? I can't hear you!"

"you!"

Sheila clenched her fists.

In other words, no one except Tim could hear their conversation, otherwise Sheila would have gone crazy a long time ago.

It doesn't matter who laughs at me, but being laughed at by Emily is not only embarrassing, but also extremely embarrassing...

Sheila took a deep breath, managed to control her emotions, and said, "What's the matter with your 'backup hidden magic'? Who taught you to do that?"

"Who taught me? I learned it myself."

"Impossible! With your brain? I don't believe it!"

Emily chuckled and said, "But I did learn it myself.

Well, as a good adventurer, I have to be prepared for everything. Before I left the Fairy Forest, I had already thought about what I would do if I encountered a similar situation! Admit it, I am smart!

The only thing I learned from Ji Ruo was the idea of ​​"reserve hidden magic power" ~ the rest are my own ideas!"

"Excellent adventurer..." Sheila seemed to have thought of something, and said in disbelief: "You, you, you learned this from novels?"

"Hey, isn't it great?" Emily smiled proudly: "Who said that you can't learn useful knowledge from reading novels? Who is it, who is it?"

Sheila's face suddenly fell and she stopped replying.

He just clenched his fists a little tighter.

How abominable!

She actually got to use all the random things she learned from reading novels!

I really can't accept being outdone like this!

Emily acted like a smug villain and taunted Sheila madly.

Sheila's face grew darker and darker.

"Alright, alright, I know you're great, alright? But it's absolutely impossible for me to admit that you're smart!"

Emily was unhappy: "But this crisis was solved by my intelligence!"

"I, you...the elf is successful!"

"That's also a success!"

“…”

Sheila didn't want to continue the topic, and changed the subject abruptly: "Strange, the Alchemy Cult was destroyed a long time ago, and all the evil alchemy methods were destroyed a long time ago, so why are there still alchemy puppets here?"

"You ask me? How would I know? It's not in the novel." Emily said honestly: "The novel only tells us what to do when we encounter a magic-forbidden barrier."

"You're not done yet, are you!!!"

The next moment, perhaps Ji Ruo successfully destroyed the core of the barrier, and Sheila once again felt the elemental power between heaven and earth.

She regained her strength, and knocked Emily over on the spot, angrily saying: "I'll make you a magic barrier! I'll make you a magic barrier!"

"You are bullying the elves! Take off your armor if you dare! Don't summon the skeletons if you dare! Don't use your hands if you dare! I am wrong!!!"

"What happened to them?"

As soon as Ji Ruo came back, he saw the two women wrestling on the ground like loaches, and couldn't help but wonder.

Liang Shixian scratched his head and said, "I don't know either. They seemed to be talking about something just now, but I couldn't hear them. Suddenly they started fighting."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruo didn't intend to care. He pulled Liang Shixian to squat aside and carefully observed the chopped-up alchemy puppets.

Until now, these guys have not died. The pieces of meat are still full of life, constantly wriggling and slowly approaching each other.

"It seems like this thing can't be killed, Rosie, have you activated the 'Killing Zone'?"

"It's always on, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on them." Luo Xi licked her lips and said, "Master, can I eat this? I can digest it."

Ji Ruo raised his hand and gently tapped Luo Xi's head, saying unhappily, "It's in human form, you can't eat it."

"Oh~ okay."

Ji Ruo looked at the Ox-horse dragon again: "Ox-horse, do you know how to kill them?"

Niu Ma Mo Long said honestly: "I can see it clearly, but it's only recently."

The implication is, no.

"I didn't expect to see the Alchemy Golem."

Tim, who had been daydreaming since the beginning of the fight, seemed to have finally come to his senses. He said in a condescending manner, "Ji Ruo, you must be careful. These alchemical puppets have extremely strong vitality. They are born purely for fighting and killing. Even some gods are no match for them. Don't give them a chance..."

Ji Ruo was still squatting, turned around and looked at Tim, and said, "No, we have already finished the game. Isn't it a bit too late for you to tell us these precautions now?"

"Ah? Are you done?" Tim suddenly woke up from his dream: "You guys are so fast?!"

"It's not a question of speed... Were you looking up information just now?"

"Look up the data... This statement is not wrong." Tim nodded, and said in a conscientious tone: "Although I don't quite understand why you are so angry, but the information about the Alchemy Golem is recorded in the underground veins..."

Tim began to introduce the Alchemy Doll and even the origin of the Alchemy Cult to Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian.

Because the information involved is a little too much, Tim has been affected by the entity. If he continues to wander in that endless information for a while, Tim will probably become the 'Earth Mother' - his humanity will be completely diluted.

However, for now, the impact is not very serious and will recover slowly.

Let’s get back to the topic.

The Alchemy Cult is a sect that focuses on alchemy and believes in the principle of "equivalent exchange". It believes in the existence of gods, but even Tim has not been able to find any relevant records about the God of Alchemy in the records of the earth - she knows there is such a guy, but she doesn't know who he is.

The Alchemy Cult involves many aspects. In Ji Ruo's opinion, the so-called Alchemy Cult is actually an existence that climbs the technology tree in the pure Western fantasy world of Mother Earth.

The Alchemy Golem is a derivative product of the Alchemy Cult's "Life Alchemy" business.

By the way, Tim also relayed some of the alchemy puppet forging process to Ji Ruo's 'chat software' through his spiritual consciousness in the form of pictures or 'video'.

Looking at the information, Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian fell silent.

If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would never have imagined that a person could be so vicious and cruel.

Ji Ruo even gave up the idea of ​​getting some alchemy puppets to bring back to Shangxuanyuan for research.

"How to help them get rid of it?" Ji Ruo asked.

"It's not difficult to free them." Tim told Ji Ruo the method, and then said seriously: "There is one thing I feel it is necessary to tell you. When I was looking up information related to the Alchemy Cult, I found something very important.

This sect was destroyed by gods and mortals together, but from beginning to end, the gods behind the Alchemy Sect never showed up. And in the year when the Alchemy Sect was destroyed, a new sect appeared on the mainland——"

Tim said word by word: "The Church of Truth."
