C124 seed soul (1/2)

As the flames surrounded Black Scorpion Man's body, the aura emitted from his body became even stronger.

However, due to the aura's fluctuation, the rumbling sound also stopped, and even the screeching sound gradually faded away.

Just as Qin Shaojie had guessed, the Black Scorpion Man's aura was enough to suppress most of the beasts in the Taihang Mountains. Although the beasts that came with killing intent hadn't even reached the surroundings of the canyon yet, their sense of smell was far stronger than humans. The pressure coming from the Black Scorpion Man that filled the air completely caused them to feel fear.

At this moment, he also silently moved towards the distance.

However, while these magical beasts were fleeing, they had already stepped into the domain of other magical beasts. Thus, battles between them were inevitable.

All night long, the sounds of magical beast battles could be heard in the Taihang Mountains. Powerful profound energy fluctuations constantly spread out in the surroundings, and the lush ancient forests also collapsed piece by piece in the midst of these magical beast battles. The earth trembled, and the howls of the magical beasts filled the entire Taihang Mountains.

After all, it had been so many years, and the magical beasts in the depths of the Taihang Mountains were all safe and peaceful. A situation like this was still quite rare.

However, even though they were very curious, very few people dared to actually enter the Taihang Mountains. After all, there were too many magical beasts.

But Qin Shaojie completely ignored all these.

Carefully controlling his profound fire, he continued to temper his body. After an entire night had passed, only when the light of dawn illuminated the entire land did he slowly stop.

However, the current Qin Shaojie was extremely weak and the profound energy in his body had been almost completely used up overnight. With such consumption of energy, let alone a mere Peak of Genuine Force, even a profound practitioner would not be able to withstand it. Fortunately, Qin Shaojie still had a lot of medicinal pellets, and every time his profound energy ran out, he would directly consume them.

Although this was also a process of exhausting his body, it was clear that Qin Shaojie couldn't care less right now.

Hu hu hu hu!

Qin Shaojie fiercely spat out a mouthful of foul air from his chest, and swept his gaze across Black Scorpion Man's corpse. He also revealed a satisfied expression on his face.

This Black Scorpion Man's originally white corpse was now covered with a few red spots. This red color did not look like it was dyed, but more like flesh and blood that had grown together with the corpse.

If the corpse from before still looked somewhat coarse, then now, it was sparkling and translucent, and looked round and round. Most importantly, after being refined by everything, one could faintly feel some energy fluctuations from it.

This aura was not the same as the one he had previously released during the tempering process. It gave off a strong and violent feeling, but it did not truly emanate from it. Those auras attached to the skeleton did not move outwards.

Only when this body was truly activated would that aura be able to truly play a role.

In addition, after being tempered by the mystic fire, the visual impact was even stronger. Every skeleton seemed as if they had been tempered with steel. That kind of toughness was extremely difficult for even a weapon to leave a trace.

According to Qin Shaojie's estimations, this corpse could withstand a full-force attack from a peak Three Spiritual Realms expert just by its strength alone. Even if Earth Origin Stage Warriors were to make a move, they might not be able to cause particularly great harm.

”I didn't expect that the corpse we picked up this time seemed to be different from the others.”

His gaze continued to size up the corpse, and under such scrutiny, Qin Shaojie's face became more serious.

If a grown corpse was refined, its body would definitely reveal the color of black gas. Although it could force its aura out to create a greater destructive force around the body, it was not as gentle as it was now.

Qin Shaojie had refined quite a few corpses before, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

He kept flipping through his memories, as if trying to find some memories about this phenomenon. However, in the end, he could not find any clues. It seemed that this phenomenon could only be solved in the future.

”Don't worry, when my power regains, I will let you out.”

Qin Shaojie muttered to himself as his gaze finally fixed onto the chest of the Black Scorpion Man's corpse. The remnant soul made him feel very strange. This strange feeling was not out of fear, but out of curiosity.

Whether it was the Black Scorpion Man's secret or the fact that there was such a change in the skeleton, perhaps it had something to do with the remnant soul. If he wanted to learn more, he could only find out after he unsealed the remnant soul.
