CHAPTER 285: CHAPTER 207 XIU’ER’S SPIRIT ROOT_2

The water surface was stained with large patches of red.

A large number of excited players rushed in on small boats to collect the spoils.

One by one, they were beaming with joy, constantly boasting about how much experience they gained, leveling up several levels at once, and how much contribution they could get this time.

Seeing all this, Small Knife was very satisfied.

He checked it out.

If tens of thousands of these players cooperated in a sacrificial strike, they could seriously injure low-level demon beasts.

This is due to the generally low levels of the players; if they were stronger by a dozen levels, killing low-level demon beasts shouldn’t be a problem.

Even so, it was still far from the limit of this giant ship altar’s potential.

If there was enough sacrifice, the power of this giant ship altar would increase by hundreds of times.

It seems that such a powerful giant ship altar is not even needed.

In fact, only having this one limits the hunting range.

Small Knife pondered, already returning to the central forbidden area of the small island.

The Witch Residence shrouded the entrance to the underground.

Players were not allowed to enter here.

Likewise, there were many people here, busy as bees.

Most of them were NPCs who followed Small Knife.

Most were busy drawing witch language and making some witch artifacts.

With high-purity metal weapons, drawing witch language and the like became much easier, with a greatly increased success rate.

It’s not for the production of witch artifacts, which are just by-products; the main purpose is to master witch language and runes, laying a good foundation for future talisman making, etc.

Those cultivators who have swapped bodies were drawing spirit talismans under the guidance of the little cultivator.

However, the most successful ones at present were just half-spirit talismans, but clearly, success was only a matter of time.

The materials for spirit talismans were still mainly metal sheets, with demon beast blood and adjusted spirit liquid as supplements, and a small amount of demon beast hide.

If Small Knife were to directly add entry-level spirit water into it, entry-level spirit talismans could be produced immediately.

But it wasn’t necessary to do so; laying the foundation was most important, high-cost production had no extra meaning.

These failed products were naturally placed on shelves or traded to the Four Seas and Nine Heavens, the two major guilds, still having a market.

The little cultivator stated that Xiu’Er could have long been able to draw spirit talismans and had a certain grasp of arrays.

She had mastered the most and fullest runes.

The commercial talismans she drew were worth nurturing and advancing, eventually becoming magical artifacts.

However, though she is at level 100, she is not a cultivator but a mortal, without a spirit root, so she has been unable to succeed.

But Xiu’Er has been researching, trying to find another path to success, but it’s not such an easy thing.

The difference between immortal and mortal.

Watching Xiu’Er busy, gave off a focused atmosphere, soon a rune appeared on the metal block in her hand, a small smile emerged on her face.

The quality of the rune was upper grade.

This block is an upper-grade talisman device.

But clearly, it was continuous busyness, her face looked somewhat pale.

Perhaps feeling Small Knife’s gaze, she instinctively turned her head.

Seeing Small Knife, she immediately showed a surprised expression.

"Master Brother!" Xiu’Er happily came over to greet.

Small Knife waved with a smile, feeling slightly warm inside.

At the same time, he finally made up his mind.

A hundred percent loyalty, in fact, more trustworthy than similar beings in reality, cultivating her won’t be a loss.

Then he pulled Xiu’Er, and went indoors with her.

Closing the door instructed the subordinates not to disturb.

The connection with personal space became increasingly close, this was a wondrous perception, clearer than seeing with eyes and included a special insight, seemingly similar to the divine sense only described in foundation establishment cultivators.

At present, within the personal space, Small Knife also established a connection with the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower.

The Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower also regained part of its status, feeling that plucking a leaf was not a big problem, the injury wouldn’t be devastating.

After observing the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower for a while.

Small Knife’s consciousness began analyzing the Great Fool Fish Altar (Water) Diagram.

This was not as complex as imagined, nor as difficult as imagined.

However, without a real object, wanting to create such spiritual patterns was impossible.

Now with a real object, Small Knife also had capabilities similar to divine sense.

Soon, he imitated a simplified version.

Because in personal space, copyright protection was ineffective.

This counts as a diagram, absorbing this pure energy spiritual pattern into the sea of consciousness.

Externally, it began being evaluated by the system.

Small Knife’s Sacrificial Artifact (Water): Embryonic form of spiritual language diagram, gathering power, with blood qi, flesh, lifespan, soul sacrifice, gathering the strength of many, exerting super strong power.

Similar to last time, but Small Knife knew this spiritual pattern diagram was simpler, requiring much less energy to activate.

Feeling something, looking over, Xiu’Er was already awake.

A slightly shy expression graced her face, but she had recovered her energy.

"Do not resist!" Small Knife extended his hand.

Thus, Xiu’Er disappeared.

Due to her trust in him, she naturally did not resist.

Subsequently, she appeared in Small Knife’s personal space.

She floated there, occupying a point of personal space, with other things not far away.

But in her vision, it was all chaos, as if floating in the void, with nothing around, unable to move.

"Don’t be afraid!" Small Knife’s voice sounded, immediately relieving Xiu’Er.

Soon after, a leaf of the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower fell off.

Instantly, the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower’s aura wilted, and the whole plant seemed somewhat withered.

But Small Knife was relieved, although its primordial qi was injured, it could recover, that’s good.

Although he couldn’t sense how long it would take to recover, it must be a long time, it would be great if he could get other water attribute spiritual objects.

This leaf, an innate spiritual object, emitted a faint halo, and seemed to be sent into Xiu’Er’s mouth by some invisible force.

It melted upon entry, permeating within.

Only here could she completely absorb it, one hundred percent absorption.

Outside, most of the power would be instinctively devoured by the world.

This is the price that life within the world must pay.

Everything belongs to the world.

Of course, Small Knife didn’t know this; he only knew that he could perfectly control in personal space, and that absorbing here made observation easier, which should be more appropriate.

In this observation, a whole day passed.

With Small Knife to chat with, Xiu’Er wasn’t bored.

She even attempted to practice Water Spirit Formulas.

A day later, Small Knife felt that the spirit awakening had probably succeeded.

This allowed him to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Such a surprise.

Because it was just a flower petal, Small Knife had no confidence that a spirit root could be generated.

Unsure whether he could bear to give more than one.

The second petal would mean the inevitable death of the spirit flower.

Because according to system description, it required consuming the whole flower and couldn’t be shared with others.

Only this way could the water spirit root be obtained.

As time went by, the aura of the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower’s petal completely dissipated.

Only then did he release Xiu’Er.

His instinctive choice was extremely correct because even if Xiu’Er took one flower petal, it wouldn’t be fully absorbed, dissipating and largely absorbed by the world.

Therefore, within personal space, under Small Knife’s will, it wouldn’t dissipate, providing her enough time for complete absorption.

After coming out, they used a crystal ball for testing.

The results were very satisfactory, Xiu’Er gained the spirit root, a water attribute half spirit root.

Drip: Congratulations, your Nu Xiu’Er obtained the water spirit root, breaking through the level 100 bottleneck, system automatically analyzed and deduced, aiding in grasping spirit root principles, please provide more corresponding materials.

Drip: Congratulations, you’ve gained inheritance contribution: 100000.

These Small Knife didn’t pay attention to, immediately guiding Xiu’Er’s practice, and consuming experience points, directly reaching level 110, peak of first-layer Qi cultivation.

Originally there should not have been this bottleneck, but with half spirit root, there was still a small bottleneck, which, being a past experiencer, was not difficult to break through.

System notification suggests consuming a million experience can assist breakthrough, with no side effects.

Straightforwardly consuming experience, after all, this million is just a spirit stone.

So, continuing to upgrade Xiu’Er, directly to level 120, peak of second-layer Qi cultivation.

Small Knife noticed the recent overconsumption of spirit stones, almost running out of stock, had to stop.

Xiu’Er’s strength greatly increased, excitedly went off to draw spirit talismans.

Once she started, proficiently, she succeeded, crafting defensive types with more value than offensive ones.
