From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 400 - 277: The Witch Demon’s Life Protection Box, Skill Upgrade

Chapter 400: Chapter 277: The Witch Demon’s Life Protection Box, Skill Upgrade

The "Great Arcanist’s Magic Secret Book" possesses a Divine Attribute Skill, extracting the Divine Energy would be somewhat of a pity.

If I don’t extract the Divine Energy, can I keep this Magic Secret Book in hand?

Lu Heng wasn’t too certain about this because Terres was also eyeing this Magic Secret Book.

After all, it was an S-level treasure, and this bounty mission to hunt the Witch Demon was issued by Terres, whose aim might also be this Magic Secret Book.

Terres stepped forward and asked, "Are you going to extract the Divine Energy from the Magic Secret Book now? I can help you."

Lu Heng picked up the Witch Demon Talisman, handed it back to Terres, and then asked, "Can I keep this Magic Secret Book?"

Terres shrugged and spread his hands, "To tell you the truth, the original owner of this Magic Secret Book was Augustus. You’ve heard of him, haven’t you? The Great Arcanist of Quel’dorei."

Lu Heng hadn’t expected that this Magic Secret Book actually belonged to the Great Arcanist Augustus; he hadn’t considered this before.

"You mean to say, this Magic Secret Book should be returned to Augustus?"

Terres shrugged again and replied, "It’s up to you, but if Augustus finds out you have this Magic Secret Book, he will definitely take it back, as for by what means, that’s unknown. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"I can give you a suggestion: if you return this Magic Secret Book to Augustus, you will certainly receive his gratitude."

Lu Heng already had the Aurora Blade, and during combat, he needed to use a sword, so he wouldn’t take out this Magic Secret Book to use.

If he were to keep this Magic Secret Book, it should be for Su Muyu to use; it suits her quite well. Just the effect of +10 spiritual power alone is very strong.

However, keeping the Magic Secret Book for Su Muyu meant that the book actually couldn’t be brought back to Blue Star.

This Magic Secret Book was an item from the Quel’dorei World; to take it back to Blue Star, it needed to be assimilated using Divine Energy.

In fact, you could also choose to extract the Divine Energy and then return the Magic Secret Book, downgraded to A-level, back to Augustus.

That would be maximizing the benefits.

If you extract the Divine Energy now, it could be used to upgrade the Windwalker Skill.

After the skill upgrade, the control over wind would be further enhanced, with a chance to master Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Just as Lu Heng was considering these matters.

Lin Zeyu came running back holding a small Demon, "I caught it, this is the thing."

What he held in his hand was unmistakably a Void Soul Stealing, which looked like an Abyss Demon Spirit, half-transparent and deep purple, lacking much combat power but very adept at concealment.

This Void Soul Stealing had been playing dead all along, when suddenly its eyes burst open, it struggled fiercely and escaped from Lin Zeyu’s palm, releasing Void Energy in an attempt to flee.

Lu Heng, quick to react, leaped forward and caught the creature by the nape of the neck with a lightning-fast grab.

The outburst of Void Energy from the Void Soul Stealing came to an abrupt halt.

The nape of the neck was the weak spot of a Void Soul Stealing; grabbing it there would render it completely immobile.

"Still trying to run?" Lin Zeyu flipped his hand, grabbed a revolver, pressed it against the back of the Void Soul Stealing’s head, ready to blow its head off with a shot.

Lu Heng raised his hand to stop him, then with a "snap," pressed the Void Soul Stealing against the ground, demanding, "Where’s the Treasure Location? Speak!"

"Gurgle gurgle..." The Void Soul Stealing made a high-pitched squealing sound, struggling as though it was pleading for mercy.

Lu Heng couldn’t understand what the squealing meant, but it was not important. With Lin Zeyu’s Demon Hunter abilities, the creature couldn’t escape.

"Mark it again and then chop off one of its claws. If it dares to run, just detonate the mark and kill it."

Lin Zeyu, hearing this, immediately grinned wickedly, cast the Demon Hunter Mark again, and then drew a dagger to chop off one of its claws.

Lu Heng let go of the Void Soul Stealing, stating, "Lead me to the Treasure Location, or I’ll detonate the mark and kill you."

The Void Soul Stealing, true to its name, was skilled in concealment and thievery.

It would hide the stolen goods in a place where no one could find them.

In other words, its Treasure Location would have a lot of treasures.

The Void Soul Stealing, making gurgling noises, began to move towards the foothills to the south.

After following for about twenty minutes, the Void Soul Stealing burrowed into a mountainside.

Lu Heng asked, "Can you still see it?"

"Yes, it hasn’t run. There might be hollow caverns inside the mountain." Lin Zeyu was keeping a constant watch on the Void Soul Stealing.

"Good, I’ll go in and have a look." As he spoke, Lu Heng slipped into the shadows and passed through the mountain wall into a cavern.

There was no exit in the cavern, and it was pitch-black inside; without the state of Shadow Vision, he wouldn’t have been able to see a thing.

In the cavern, the Void Soul Stealing crouched on a pile of disordered items, awaiting judgment.

Since it wasn’t strong, the items it stole weren’t necessarily of high level.

They were things it liked, usually containing a small amount of energy.

Such as gemstones, materials, and some D and C-level items including ornaments, weapons, and small pieces of equipment.

With no exit in the cavern, there was no oxygen, and the air composition was complex.

Lu Heng drew the Aurora Blade and swung a Rift Sword Radiance towards the thinnest part of the mountain wall.

Boom!

With one slash, the Rift Sword Radiance cleaved through three meters of wall, opening a vent.

Lu Heng stepped out through the opening, took a breath of fresh air, and said, "Mu Yu, clear the air."

Su Muyu raised her hand and used the Sky Vault Lord’s ability to control the weather, whipping up a wind that dispersed the stale air inside the cavern.
