Chapter 217: Undersea Evil God Cthulhu
The life energy contained in the small ball is also the key to August's advancement to a hundred thousand year soul beast in just three years.
"I have absorbed one third of the life energy in here. As for Leviathan, I don't know where the hell it has gone to now."
Nan Fusheng nodded. He didn't care about August absorbing one third of the energy. After all, they were all his clones, and August should indeed be strengthened.
The life energy purified by the Time Worm is very pure and easy to absorb. August's race, the Tyrannosaurus, is also a race that is very good at absorbing energy.
There are only a few ways to advance as a soul beast: 1. Rely on your own practice.
Second, cultivate by hunting soul beasts and then devouring their flesh and blood. Ten thousand years ago, fierce beasts such as Emperor Tian relied on a similar method to absorb the soul power of Tianmeng Ice Silkworms for cultivation.
3. Improve your cultivation by eating natural treasures.
The vast majority of soul beasts rely on the second method to cultivate, but this method requires time to hone. After all, except for those powerful races, most soul beasts do not absorb energy quickly.
Ps: (In Unrivaled Tang Sect, Huo Yuhao once adopted two little dark gold terror claw bears, and then trained them into thousand-year soul beasts in just a few years.)
August was able to quickly advance to a hundred thousand year soul beast by hunting in this way and devouring and absorbing the life energy purified by the Worm of Time.
But the opportunity that allowed it to evolve into this kind of human form came from the several mermaids it accidentally encountered when it was promoted from a 90,000-year soul beast to a 100,000-year soul beast.
That’s right, it’s a mermaid!
Logically speaking, soul beasts like mermaids should live in the inland sea near the Far North.
But August did encounter several mermaids in the depths of Tianhai. To be honest, the mermaids are indeed handsome men and beautiful women.
So when August started to devour them, he was merciless, and he also used the power of the Worm of Time to find out why these mermaids appeared in the depths of the Tianhai Sea.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a powerful and evil soul beast that broke into the center of the Far North Inland Sea and killed many sea soul beasts. It enraged the leader of the mermaid clan at that time, a super soul beast with a cultivation of nearly 700,000 years: the Sea Princess.
Then a great battle broke out. The process was unknown, but the final result was that the Sea Princess was killed and devoured by the soul beast.
The mermaids also suffered heavy losses because of this. The soul beast seemed to have an extraordinary hatred for the mermaids who believed in the sea god. It killed all the mermaids at that time, some died and some fled.
These mermaids in the deep sea of Tianhai were among the ones that escaped at that time. Their cultivation level is probably around ten thousand years. However, because mermaids have spiritual attributes and are humanoid soul beasts, they are very intelligent.
When August met these mermaids, even though they had only been cultivating for ten thousand years, their intelligence was by no means inferior to that of humans.
Upon learning this information, Nan Fusheng immediately thought of the Demon King. After all, there were only a few soul beasts in the entire Douluo Star that had the power to kill the Sea Princess.
However, these are all things that happened later. For Nan Fusheng, the most important thing is that after August devoured those mermaids, his original octopus body actually began to change subtly.
After being promoted to a hundred thousand year old soul beast, it completely changed into a neither human nor fish appearance. It looked like the "Undersea Evil God Cthulhu", except for a pair of wings on its back.
His clone was really full of disasters. Although the Chimera Soul Beast was originally a hybrid creature, it was normal for it to grow crooked, but it was too crooked. Of course, when he lost his beauty, he gained absolute power. Although August's cultivation was only a little over 100,000 years, the power he could exert in the ocean was no less than that of a 97-level Titled Douluo.
If you really want to run away, it will be no problem unless you encounter an Extreme Douluo who is good at controlling the water element, or someone like Yun Ming or Di Tian who helps you.
"Well, although it's still a little lacking for combat, it's a pretty good helper for hunting soul beasts in the ocean and acquiring life energy." This is Nan Fusheng's definition of August.
A good helper to help him obtain life energy, after all, it is impossible for him to control the clone and raid the soul guide train all day long, right? In the ocean, so many soul beasts die every day, even if August kills a few more, it doesn't matter.
During this process, August also encountered a scene where an evil soul master was hunting soul beasts in the ocean. However, it did not take action, but just watched from afar in the deep sea.
After Nan Fusheng took the small ball, he directly used the door to seal it into his body. This was pure natural energy that he would use to increase his cultivation speed in the future.
Then he looked at the soul bones again and waved his hand. Several time worms climbed on them. It was visible to the naked eye that the light on the soul bones became dimmer and dimmer until it disappeared.
In the end, it seemed to be weathered and turned into dust, which disappeared with the wind.
However, Nan Fusheng did not feel any regret at all, as they were just a few ten thousand year old soul bones.
Although they are priceless to others, to him, who is unable to absorb soul bones, they are nothing but a pile of useless waste. It would be better for him to convert them into energy for his absorption.
That’s right, Nan Fusheng is unable to absorb soul bones. This is the result of Nan Fusheng’s experiments over the past three years. Otherwise, do you think he would contribute his external soul bone, the Dark Gold Terror Claw?
After controlling Qiangu Bubai and possessing the rich resources of Tianhai City's Spirit Transmission Tower, Nan Fusheng also learned that a 90,000-year-old left leg bone was stored there.
Although the year was a bit off, Nan Fusheng at the time still felt that he had to make do with it, as it was not impossible to change it anyway.
However, when his body absorbed the soul bone, he found that it was difficult to establish a connection with the soul bone no matter what. In the end, he succeeded in absorbing it only by relying on the "wrong" authority.
But the result was not satisfactory. When he absorbed the soul bone, his body would automatically reject it. Even if he successfully absorbed it, his body would simply absorb the energy of the soul bone.
When Nan Fusheng canceled the "wrong" power, this soul bone would be automatically expelled, and at the same time, more than half of its energy would be absorbed, causing the quality of the soul bone to decline.
Although he was confused at first, Nan Fusheng soon figured out the reason. It was because his body had begun to move towards the path of a divine creature, so his body began to reject those foreign objects.
As a mythical creature, his body's natural rejection of such impure things caused him to be unable to absorb soul bones.
Fortunately, Shenwei, Lufa and others can absorb it. After all, sometimes good skills will appear in soul bones.
