"Stop!" Lin Moyu's voice rang out, halting Ling Yizhan and his group in their tracks.
"Don't co any closer, the ground here is poisoned." Lin Moyu pointed to the ground.
Only then did Ling Yizhan and the others notice that the earth here was different. It was darker, tinged with an eerie green color. Upon closer inspection, wisps of smoke could be seen rising from it.
This place had been contaminated by the Earth Evil Centipede's poison, and it would remain a hazardous zone for a long ti.
The Bone Armor shone brightly, protecting Lin Moyu as he walked out of the contaminated area.
Ling Yizhan and the others circled around to join him, "Thank you, Junior!"
If it wasn't for Lin Moyu's intervention, they would have been done for this ti. However, it was because of Lin Moyu that they were in this predicant to begin with.
Lin Moyu shook his head, "No need to thank . If you hadn't run back, you would have been fine."
Lin Moyu had seen Ling Yizhan and them run back, and although he didn't say anything, but he understood their intentions. It was a tacit acknowledgnt of their camaraderie. Regardless of the past, at least at present, these seniors seed decent enough.
The battle against the Earth Evil Centipede had been intense, draining a significant amount of Lin Moyu's spirit force. Additionally, he had lost 168 Skeletal Warriors and 18 Skeletal Mages, which was nearly half of an undead legion. This was a considerable loss and needed to be replenished.
Lin Moyu walked out of the poisoned area and found a flat spot to sit down. Two skeletons stood next to him, one on each side, and he quickly entered a ditative state.
This allowed him to recover swiftly after a battle, without wasting a single mont, greatly enhancing his ability to engage in prolonged combat.
After 10 minutes, Lin Moyu opened his eyes, his spirit force fully restored. He glanced over at Ling Yizhan and his group, who were busy examining the Earth Evil Centipede. It looked like they were using so tools.
Lin Moyu began summoning Skeletal Warriors one by one. Thanks to his title, summoning a Skeletal Warrior only required 500 points of spirit force.
He summoned 20 Skeletal Warriors in one go before resuming ditation, always retaining more than half of his spirit force.
In this manner, in less than two hours, he had fully replenished the Skeletal Warriors. Next was the Skeletal Mages' turn.
At this point, a fire entered Lin Moyu's eyes, followed by a strange aroma of at. He turned to look and found that Ling Yizhan and the others had set up a bonfire a distance away and were grilling at. It was astonishingly the Earth Evil Centipede's at.
Ling Yizhan noticed Lin Moyu looking their way and invited, "Junior, co over and have so."
Lin Moyu accepted the roasted at from Ling Yizhan without hesitation. The Bone Armor didn't react, confirming the at wasn't poisoned.
After taking a bite, Lin Moyu found the grilled at unusually delicious and infused with peculiar energy, and he felt his spirit force beco more active. This sensation was similar to when he ingested Desert Fruit.
He couldn't help but feel a bit dazed—how could this be? He summoned a Skeletal Mage, which consud 1,500 points of spirit force. At the sa ti, he took another bite of the at.
Sure enough, his spirit force recovered at an alarming speed, even faster than when ingesting Desert Fruit.
Lin Moyu asked, "What kind of at is this?"
Ling Yizhan replied, "This is the Earth Evil Centipede's leg at; world boss at. It is an excellent treasure for restoring spirit force and healing wounds."
Lin Moyu looked at the Earth Evil Centipede. Its corpse was still there. Unlike the corpses of dungeon bosses, this corpse would remain for a long ti.
However, its legs were missing. They were clearly removed by Ling Yizhan and his party.
Seeing Lin Moyu's gaze, Ling Yizhan smiled and pulled out a large box. The box was made of ice and was emitting cold air. The box was filled with pristine white leg at.
Surprisingly, despite the Earth Evil Centipede being poisonous, its leg at was pristine white and looked very appetizing.
Ling Yizhan said, "There's half of the leg at in here."
Lin Moyu took it without hesitation. Although Ling Yizhan and his party had harvested the at, but he was the one who killed the boss. He deserved a share.
"Thank you, here's sothing for you." Lin Moyu tossed a piece of equipnt to Ling Yizhan.
It was the Evil Centipede's Robe, which ca with the Poison Fog Barrier skill. The robe ca with its own skill and its attributes were very high, making it a top-tier platinum rank equipnt. It was superior to what Ling Yizhan was wearing.
Ling Yizhan was a little overwheld, "I can't accept this."
Lin Moyu shook his head. "We're all from the Xiajing Academy, so just take it."
Lin Moyu continued eating the roasted at, which was rapidly restoring his spirit force.
He summoned Skeletal Mages one after another until all 18 Skeletal Mages were replenished. By the ti he had finished the at in his hand, he felt full. His stomach couldn't fit much more.
"It's a bit different from Desert Fruit." Lin Moyu mused.
You couldn't get full from Desert Fruit; no matter how many you ate, they would dissipate before even reaching the stomach. Although the boss at was more effective, but you couldn't eat much of it. As such, Desert Fruit was still the unrivaled miraculous material for grind skills.
At the thought of Desert Fruit, Lin Moyu couldn't help but feel a slight nausea. In any case, since he won't be able to get Desert Fruit in the future, the Earth Evil Centipede's leg at was a good alternative. It was better than nothing.
"Does the at of other world bosses have this kind of effect?" Lin Moyu asked.
Ling Yizhan nodded, "Generally, yes. Eating the flesh of a boss partial to the spirit attribute will have a pronounced effect in terms of restoring spirit force."
The Earth Evil Centipede's attributes were fairly balanced. If it were a world boss partial to the spirit attribute instead, the effect would be even better. However...
Lin Moyu considered it briefly but ultimately dismissed the idea. After all, bosses like the Earth Evil Centipede were not easy to deal with. The creature was simply unfortunate to et an adversary unafraid of poison, and it was eventually overwheld and defeated.
If it were a party of class users like that of Ling Yizhan instead, unless they had an overwhelming level advantage, sheer numbers wouldn't cut it. A single cloud of poisonous fog would likely kill half of them.
...
After filling his stomach, Lin Moyu's his spirit force was fully restored. He took out the Poison Crystal and Fire Crystal and placed them together, and then infused spirit force. With spirit force acting as a bridge, the two crystals were connected. The red and green crystals emitted a faint light and rged like flowing water.
Half a minute later, a brand-new item—Elental Divine Stone—appeared in Lin Moyu's hand. The divine stone was a hexagonal gem, with one half glowing red of the fire elent and the other half glowing green of the poison elent. The two sides were distinctly separate and interdependent, forming a perfectly balanced whole.
[Elental Divine Stone (fire, poison): can be used during the third class awakening to increase the chances of class sublimation by 5%.]
The fusion of the two elents only increased the chances of class sublimation by 5%. To further increase the chances, more elents would need to be added.
After putting the Elental Divine Stone away, Lin Moyu took out the Poison Gem.
Before using it, he summoned an undead legion to guard him and donned the Bone Armor. He wasn't sure how long the process of using the Poison Gem would take nor what would happen, so he prioritized safety.
Subsequently, he stimulated his spirit force and activated the Poison Gem. The Poison Gem instantly exploded into a green mist that surrounded Lin Moyu. The Bone Armor didn't activate, indicating that the green mist was harmless.
The mist swirled around Lin Moyu, emitting a faint light, sowhat similar to when using a skill scroll. The green light grew stronger and tinged the surroundings green.
Ling Yizhan and the others watched curiously.
"Party Leader, what is he doing?"
Ling Yizhan watched on for a mont, then replied thoughtfully, "He should be using the Poison Gem."
The Poison Gem was a special item dropped by the Earth Evil Centipede. Ling Yizhan wasn't clear about its specific function, and in fact, very few people knew about it.
After all, the Earth Evil Centipede was extrely difficult to kill. The last ti it was slain was many years ago.
...
After using the Poison Gem, Lin Moyu gained a trait: Poison Elental Damage Reduced by 50%. Coupled with the Elental Resistance's 4-fold damage reduction, the total reduction in poison elental damage reached 8 tis.
The green light continued to grow more intense. A few minutes later, Lin Moyu saw a ring of green light spread outward from the green light, instantly sweeping across a vast area.
The area touched by the ring of green light imdiately decayed, transforming a large region of the battlefield into a wasteland. The poison was incredibly potent!
[Acquired skill: Poison Star Ring (level 1)]
[Poison Star Ring (level 1): can form an area 1 ter in radius that deals poison damage, dealing damage equivalent to 10 points per second, duration: 1 second]
Lin Moyu's eyes were filled with joy. He actually gained a new skill.
At level 1, Poison Star Ring seed weak. Even with the 40-fold amplification of Lin Moyu's talent, it could only cover a range of 40 ters and deal 400 points of damage per second for 40 seconds.
In fact, it was quite a few tis less powerful than a Skeletal Warrior's slash of the blade. But if the skill's level were to be raised... then the damage would be astounding.
At the sa ti, Lin Moyu couldn't help but sigh. Another skill had to be ground!
