Ultragene Warlord

sume it.

Sun Mengmeng asked curiously, ”Is there anything special about this blade? ”

The rock spirit, who had traveled widely around the second realm, exclaimed in shock, ”I don ’t know just what this blade was made of or the techniques that went into it, but it ’s certainly a weapon that would be fit to be in the treasury of a sura empire. ”

”You ’re absolutely right.
This executioner ’s blade belonged to the monarch of stars himself. ”

Everyone seemed taken aback.
Sun Mengmeng asked, ”Aren ’t you going to use it yourself, Captain? ”

”I don ’t intend to sully my hands with a sura ’s weapon, and our soulshards are far better than any ordinary weapon. ”

Since Zhang Lie had already given it to the leader of the rock spirits, they didn ’t have anything else to say.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

The leader of the rock spirits consumed it with gleaming eyes.
As expected, it catalyzed the rock spirit ’s next evolution.
Rays of light exploded from his body, which shone as brightly as the sun.
Its armor turned from a dull red to a gleaming silver; the metamorphosis took only a few moments.

Although there were few visible changes beyond the color and texture of the leader of the rock spirits ’ armor, it seemed very pleased.
”Haha, as long as I have enough time to continue growing, I ’ll be undefeatable! ”

Zhang Lie activated his dragon ’s pupils to inspect the changes to the body of the leader of the rock spirits.
Its soul was very interesting, like a jewel or gem wrapped by a large quantity of spiritual matter.

For the rock spirits, what determined their strength was the quantity and quality of spiritual matter that surrounded their jewel-like core.
The leader of the rock spirits had accumulated so much spiritual matter that it formed what was essentially a small mountain, and its strength seemed easily comparable to that of a sura king.

”Governor, I have no words for my gratitude.
Even in my youth, I hadn ’t explored enough or consumed enough matter to undergo my second evolution. ” The rock spirit rushed over in excitement, spread its arms wide, and was just about to hug Zhang Lie tightly when he suddenly activated [Mirrored Refraction] and shifted to the side.

He changed the topic quickly.
”Did you unlock any other abilities after your second evolution? ”

”Yes, of course! ” The rock spirit nodded eagerly.
”I can absorb the souls of the lifeforms that I kill to enhance this patina of light on my body, and hence my defense. ”

In some sense, this was very similar to the effect of the executioner ’s blade that the rock spirit had absorbed.
The executioner ’s blade ’s augmentation was to its sharpness and length; the rock spirit ’s augmentation was to its defense.

Sun Xiaowu frowned.
”But Shicang ’s forces are zombies, soulless zombies! ”

Zhang Lie shook his head.
”Souls are remnants of living matter.
Except for man-made objects, everything in this realm has a soul.
Actually, I had a special plan for dealing with Shicang.
You can think of it as trying to understand these zombies from a more scientific, principled approach… ”

Sun Xiaowu frowned.
”Based on your hypothesis, Captain, the combination of Sun Mengmeng and the leader of the rock spirits could really take down Shicang ’s entire force in one fell swoop! ”

The Yeluo chieftain jumped in.
”I have quite a number of vials of sura poison ready for all your needs.
Thanks to the stable environment Renhuang has provided, as well as all sorts of spiritual herbs and plants that the wood spirits have provided us with, we ’ve made a breakthrough in the strength of the poison! ”

Zhang Lie ’s eyes brightened.
”How does this new concoction differ from the last? ”

The Yeluo chieftain smiled pridefully.
”Oh, there ’s a big difference! You see… ”
