YM778.TV Chapter 35 - 34: Ghostly Reflection
Bai Qi took out a monocle from his pocket and put it on to take a look at the Fire Wraith. Immediately, corresponding information appeared on the lens.
Originally, Bai Qi planned to buy a Pet Beast Illustrated Handbook first. Who could have imagined that President Qins secretary would deliver one over directly, saving him some money.
However, this design always reminded Bai Qi of an ape-hke creature that received a battle power rating of five for humans.
[Name]: Hellfire
[Race]: Soul Race
[Growth Level]: First Stage, four-level
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite
[Racial Skills]: Ignition, Candle Soul, Wail
[Description]: A soul living in the Land of Death, its flames can cause both physical and mental damage to enemies.
The first six battles were against the Ice Clan and the Undead Department, but the seventh has switched to a fire attribute ghost of the Soul Race. Hmm, that makes perfect sense.
With a numb look at the drastically changed attributes of the enemy in front of him, Bai Qi said to Alpha, Alpha, be careful, physical attacks are useless against this one.
Creak, creak.
(Understood, master)
As a member of the Undead, Alpha naturally understood the peculiarities of the ghost.
Without a physical body, in a pure soul form, ordinary physical attacks could only look at them helplessly on the sidelines.
However, Alpha was not only capable of physical attacks.
Alpha glanced at the Hellfire, which was still hovering outside the freezing area, brandished Frost Sorrow aggressively, and rushed forward, freezing everything in its path.
The Hellfire clearly had no intention of taking Alphas attack head-on. It danced around agilely in mid-air, constantly dodging Alphas strikes while looking for opportunities to touch Alpha, leaving flame marks all over Alphas body.
Is this the Ignition?
[Skill Name]: Ignition
[Skill Description]: Touch the enemy to leave a mark. Once the accumulated energy of the mark reaches a certain point, it will ignite the ghost fire and burn the enemy.
It turned out to be a delayed skill.
Through the Soul Contract, Bai Qi sent Alpha a series of commands. Alphas attacking approach suddenly changed completely. It gave up defense entirely to attack the Hellfire with all its might.
Ahh!!!
Alphas fierce onslaught caused the Hellfire to be somewhat disoriented.
Suddenly a piercing wail came from its twisted body. Alphas Fire of Soul began to shake violently, and its movements stopped.
At the moment Alpha stopped, the Ignition marks that Hellfire had left earlier exploded simultaneously. A blue flame engulfed Alpha instantly, gradually forming the image of a candle above its head.
[Skill Name]: Candle Soul
[Skill Description]: Use ones own soul as fuel to burn the enemy. The candle will not extinguish until one side exhausts its soul.
My goodness, is it planning a mutual destruction?
Its just showing confidence in its advantages as a Soul Race.
Bai Qis mouth twitched, his heart filled with complaints about Hellfires perverted skill, but he had no intention of ordering Alpha to resist. He just let the fire of Candle Soul slowly burn Alpha until there was not even a trace left.
Though affected by the Candle Soul, the Hellfire shrank significantly, but it seemed unaffected. It floated to where Alpha had disappeared, looking confused.
The Candle Soul might deplete its soul, but as long as it defeated its enemy, it could receive some feedback. However, it currently received nothing, leaving the Hellfire very puzzled.
Creak,creak!
(Witness my Shadow Lotus Skill!)
Just as Hellfire was confused, the ice surface where Alpha had disappeared suddenly shattered. Several icy blue bone spurs emerged from the ground, enclosing the Hellfire like a blooming flower.
The Hellfire attempted to escape upon witnessing this, but each of these bone spurs was wrapped in a thick layer of ice. Dark energies flowed within them, ignoring the flames surrounding the Hellfire and piercing into its body.
Ahhhll!
With a sharp cry, the body of the Hellfire suddenly exploded. Only when it was reduced to a small ball of flame was it frozen by Alpha.
Crack,crack.
(Master, should we try this way?)
Alpha quickly returned to its normal state, cautiously dragging the core of the Hellfire over.
Can the Soul Race be looted too?
Looking at the small ball, that seemed to extinguish at any moment inside the chunk of ice, Bai Qi felt a wave of doubt. Still, he pressed his palm against it.
Crack.
Suddenly, several more cracks emerged on the Evolution Egg, the progress increased once again.
The Soul Race can indeed be looted!
[Name]: Evolution Egg (Black Iron Egg 68%)
[Condition]: Activated
The previous battles against the Ice Ghost Guard and the Ice Swords Guard each added five percent. Now, the Hellfire added another ten percent, and the Evolution Egg had been promoted by more than half.
According to the current trend, the next upgrade was just around the corner. Bai Qi released his hand. Alpha then forcefully crushed the core of the Hellfire. A withered branch appeared on the empty space in front of them.
[Name]: Soul-nurturing Wood
[Description]: A branch from a special plant, it can enhance the spirit power of the Soul Race creatures and other creatures. However, it causes irreversible damage to creatures with life, use with caution.
The first-through reward for the sixth floor was Cold Spirit Iron. He had thought the seventh floor might have some fire attribute materials, but he didnt expect it to be a material for the Soul Race.
After seeing the description, Bai Qi immediately planned to monopolize it. But after seeing the additional information in the Pet Beast Illustrated Handbook, he had to give up.
To enhance the soul by damaging the body, this thing was not meant for humans. Only lifeless undead could withstand it.
However, this is good for Alpha. Whether its the Skeletal Type or the Soul Race, the soul is vital.
Bai Qi put away the Soul-nurturing Wood, let Alpha rest for a while, and then continued to the next floor.
Having consecutively obtained the first-through rewards for the sixth and seventh floors, Bai Qi set his mind at ease since Xia Xuan should not be able to overtake him abruptly.
Here I come, eighth floor!
Below the Lamentation Tower.
The gate opened with a huge noise, Xia Xuan and his Mechanical Tyrannosaurus appeared at the bottom of the tower, traces of scorching could still be seen on the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus.
The ferocious beast on the seventh floor suddenly became a Fire Attribute Undead. Xia Xuan had a hard time dealing with it because he had specially modified the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus according to Ice Clan enemies.
The firepower of the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus was indeed strong, but it had a disadvantage when dealing with the soulless Undead.
Xia Xuan? Why are you coming down? Whos the one challenging the eighth floor?
On seeing Xia Xuans appearance, Han Wei looked at the eighth floor rune, still flashing, with some doubt.
Hmph! I dont know!
Hearing Han Weis question, Xia Xuan coldly snorted and walked to one side without saying another word.
Could it be him?
Gao Cheng and Han Wei exchanged a glance, the figure of Bai Qi emerging in their minds at the same time.
Impossible! That guy only has a skeleton soldier, how could he reach the eighth floor!
Lu Yuan, who always maintained a cold attitude waiting for someone to strike up a conversation, finally couldnt resist commenting when he heard their conversation. This response left Gao Cheng rather baffled.
Skeleton soldier? Didnt Bai Qis pet beast become a Shadow Bone Spike?
