1414 Soul Bottle
At the periphery of the vine forest behind them, seeing the terrifying aura that suddenly erupted from the sacred tree, Robben immediately led the Federation’s people to retreat, afraid that they would be swept into it.
Rita’s expression was also extremely cold. She saw a rapidly expanding ball gradually rising in front of the vine forest.
That direction was where Qin Hu had just entered the vine forest!
“Not good! Qin Hu is in danger, let’s attack together! Save him!”
Rita stood at the forefront of the team, and the Book of Creation in front of her was pushed to its limits, blooming abruptly.
Golden Holy Light flashed!
The people from the Holy Court poured their spiritual power into the Book of Creation.
Under the illumination of the golden light, large patches of vines in front of them withered and were consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, just as a large area withered, dense vines immediately spread over from behind to replenish it.
Rita frowned, her heart sinking.
Was this the true power of the sacred tree forest?
Was that just an appearance?
No wonder she felt that Fang Heng had something to rely on.
“Hold on!” Rita said in a deep voice.
Fortunately, the purification breath released by the people of the Holy Court could stop the vine forest of sacred trees from spreading. The team could stabilize step by step and slowly advance.
Qin Hu was still trapped in layers of vines, unable to see the exact situation.
He had the shield of faith to defend himself, so there shouldn’t be any problems for the time being. He could hold on until the team came to his rescue.
“Bang!!!”
As Rita was thinking, she heard a dull explosion in the distance. She immediately looked forward.
Golden Holy Light flickered faintly under the dense vines.
Not good!
Qin Hu’s first shield was broken so quickly?
Rita’s expression changed drastically as she forcefully activated the power of faith.
The Federation team was hiding at the back. A player could not help but ask, “Sir, should we go up and help?”
Robben looked at the chaotic forest of sacred trees in front of him, feeling guilty. He had heard that the sacred tree was very powerful, but he did not expect it to be so powerful.
The barbarian realm’s chief’s judgment of Fang Heng was absolutely wrong!
Fang Heng’s existence had already threatened the Northern Federation’s control over the entire barbarian realm.
As for helping?
Of course, he wanted to use this opportunity to join forces with the Holy Court to get rid of Fang Heng.
However, they were not prepared this time. They could not win at all. If they rushed up rashly, they would be trapped in the layers of vines.
Robben couldn’t say it out loud, so he said in a deep voice, “Just do your own thing and watch from the side. This is a matter between the Holy Court and Fang Heng. Don’t get involved.”
…
Not far away, in an area covered by layers of dense vines, Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the periphery of the forest with disdain.
This group of people from the Holy Court…
They agreed to fight one-on-one, but in the end, they still fought together, right?
The dense vines in front of him quickly dispersed, and Fang Heng walked step by step to Qin Hu.
Fang Heng stared at Qin Hu, who was surrounded by layers of vines.
“Fang Heng!”
Qin Hu activated his armor with all his might. Sweat kept dripping down his cheeks as he stared at Fang Heng, who was walking toward him.
His outermost layer of the holy shield had already been blasted apart, and the last layer of the shield of faith covering his body was still trying hard to resist the corrosion of the vines.
Fang Heng asked slowly, “Qin Hu, do you want to know what happened at the Holy Mountain?”
Qin Hu stared at Fang Heng and said in a deep voice, “You did it? Am I right?”
“No, it’s not me.”
Fang Heng shook his head and said, “But I was indeed there at that time. I also want to know what happened over there. Why don’t we make an exchange? If you tell me some information, I’ll tell you what I know?”
“Dream on!” Qin Hu gritted his teeth and retorted, “Demons! I will not compromise and make a deal with evil!”
“Yes, a smart choice.”
Fang Heng nodded and raised his hand.
A dark porcelain bottle appeared in front of him.
When Qin Hu saw the porcelain bottle, his pupils suddenly constricted. A hint of shock and fear appeared in his eyes.
“You, that’s…?”
“Oh? You even recognize this?”
Fang Heng was a little surprised.
He had just received the porcelain bottle from Teacher Gu Luo this morning.
It was used to complete the talent upgrade mission and deal with the holy realm’s enforcers.
Qin Hu’s level did not seem to be high enough, but he could still make do. He could take his soul and run to Teacher Gu Luo to exchange for rewards.
He could also test the actual control and specific abilities of the soul bottle.
[Item: Soul bottle (Special, unknown).]
Level: Legendary.
Description: A bottle that can store souls. Inject spiritual power into it to summon evil spirits to tear the soul out of the enemy’s body and pour it into the bottle.
Description: A soul bottle created by Gu Luo through special means for the Holy Court. It can seal high-strength holy faith souls.
Description: This item has an unknown special power. It will definitely drop after a player dies.
Activating the porcelain bottle, Fang Heng immediately felt a hole in his own spiritual power, which was quickly absorbed by the porcelain bottle in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the soul power in his sea of consciousness was pulled by an unknown force.
Whoosh!
What the hell!
Fang Heng’s pupils contracted.
A vortex suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness!
His soul power was quickly devoured by the vortex!
At the same time, a black aura seeped out of the porcelain bottle.
The solidified aura slowly spread toward Qin Hu.
Fang Heng frowned.
This was bad. The soul vortex was the special effect of activating the soul bottle.
He suddenly realized that there was a huge pit hidden in Teacher Gu Luo’s mission.
Normal soul absorption was done after killing the enemy, and Teacher Gu Luo’s soul absorption was to extract the soul from the human body alive!
Fang Heng had never expected that the requirements for using the soul porcelain bottle would be so high!
In addition to spirit power, he also needed sufficient soul power to support it.
The soul energy in his sea of consciousness kept pouring into the vortex. Even though Fang Heng had extremely high talent in undead magic and powerful soul power, he still felt the pressure!
The black shadow formed a palm in front of Fang Heng’s eyes. It extended along Qin Hu’s body and grabbed onto the latter’s body, slowly pulling his soul out of his body!
Qin Hu’s face was terrifyingly pale as he gritted his teeth to resist.
While resisting the corrosion of sacred tree vines, he also had to resist the tearing of his soul.
His vision gradually blurred.
Qin Hu felt his soul gradually weakening.
In fact, Gu Luo did not intentionally hide the difficulty of using the soul bottle.
Soul harvesting techniques were not difficult for ordinary targets, but it was different for high-level Holy Court.
The Holy Court had special protection for the soul.
Only by absorbing souls in a living state could one ensure that the soul was completely absorbed.
Gu Luo didn’t expect Fang Heng to be so anxious to use the soul bottle to deal with the high-level Holy Court.
In Gu Luo’s subconscious mind, Fang Heng had to at least reach the highest level in the study of necromancy to have the possibility of completing the mission, so he tacitly agreed that he would not use the soul bottle so early.
