The thunder twisted freely in the dream, and the solid thunder light had turned into a dazzling white color. The huge explosion reached Rode, who was one hundred and fifty yards away.
When the thunder light fell, there was no change in the dream. The pale land was not damaged at all, and the thin mist still flowed slowly, as if the earth-shattering explosion was just an illusion.
However, the Eye of the Soul told Rode that the Red Spirit did not think so. It was half kneeling on the ground, and its spiritual energy was in great disorder. The soul had opened a huge hole in the face of the explosion.
Opportunity!
Rode activated his spiritual energy, exerted force under his feet, and the turbulent spiritual energy instantly pushed his figure dozens of yards away.
At the same time, a crescent moon gradually appeared on the back of his right hand. His right hand became transparent, and a bright aura rose from his hand, like evaporating spiritual energy.
But unlike all the monsters Rode had hunted before, the Red Spirit recovered very quickly. Its soul cavity quickly shrank, and the spiritual energy gradually gathered from its chaotic and shattered state.
It was about to stand up!
In a hurry, Rode took out his spiritual gun with his left hand, and all his spiritual energy was activated. With the enhancement of "Awakening", in less than half a second, a sealing bullet shot out, hitting the soul cavity of the Red Spirit accurately.
Bang!
The bullet covered with spiritual energy patterns turned into a silver light in the air. The resulting spiritual impact instantly interrupted its recovery, and the just-shrinking soul cavity expanded again.
It worked!
Rode felt delighted and exerted more force to rush forward. With the support of the turbulent spiritual energy, he covered dozens of yards in one step.
He could approach the Red Spirit with just ten steps.
However, after three steps, the soul cavity of the Red Spirit began to shrink again, and the spiritual energy began to recover.
No way, what is this guy?
Rode gathered his spiritual energy and fired a second shot, intending to disrupt its recovery again.
But after three steps, it started again, as if a powerful force was manipulating its spiritual energy, shrinking its soul cavity.
Rode could only multitask, the spiritual gun in his left hand kept firing, the spiritual energy under his feet kept surging, and his right hand maintained the state of bursting, rushing towards the Red Spirit.
However, after being shot several times, the Red Spirit's recovery became irreversible. Its soul cavity gradually shrank, and the spiritual energy gradually solidified.
Its weakness was about to disappear!
Rode used all his strength, ran with all his might, and finally rushed in front of the Red Spirit in the last second. He thrust his right hand towards the remaining trace of the soul cavity.
Thunk!
A dull drum sound seemed to come from the void, shaking the soul.
His ethereal right hand penetrated its chest, entered its soul through the last gap, and touched the countless soul strings inside.
"Die!"
Rode shouted angrily, grabbing all the strings and pulling them outward.
Sss—
An invisible hissing sound echoed in the dream.
The dazzling aura burst out like an explosion, engulfing Rode's figure.
The soul, tinged with red light, collapsed amidst the screams, and the powerful spiritual energy evaporated in the void. Countless black dust rose into the air and then fell, as if a black snow had fallen.
A huge black line never seen before plunged into Rode's body, and he clearly saw that a dazzling red flame rose from the soul altar of the Red Spirit.
That was the soul of the Red Spirit.
The black dust gradually disappeared, the aura evaporated, and all traces of the Red Spirit's existence dissipated, leaving only the eternal dream.
Finally!
Rode sat on the ground with relief.
Finally killed this thing!
Intense pain and fatigue surged in his mind, and the effect of "Awakening" gradually faded, making Rode want to fall asleep on the spot.
But not now.
Rode forced himself to stand up, came to the soul altar, and looked at the soul emitting a red light.
It was larger than any soul he had seen before, slender in shape, like an upright eye, as if still observing the surroundings.
[Soul of hunting down the Red Spirit Tuge]
[Strong soul]
[Possesses a Source]
[After sacrifice, can obtain 50,000 Souls without Spirits, 100 units of Spirituality, 1 unit of Divinity, and 1 unit of Soul Trait with the Eye of Hunting]
[Hunting down the Red Spirit Tuge is a hunter wandering in the River of Eternal Death. Endless time has eroded his sanity and wiped out his soul. As a demigod, he is left with only the instinct to plunder spirituality, humanity, and divinity.
Offer it to the king buried under the flow of time, waiting for the king's awakening, which is the only reason to support his existence.]
——
The information was more than any soul he had seen before. Rode knew that the more he knew, the more the dream could present to him.
This strange space was closely related to his soul.
Hmm, he should read more books when he has free time.
The information on the soul confirmed Rode's guess. The invading soul did indeed possess a Source.
And a soul with a Source was the core condition for igniting a new star.
However, the information on the soul showed that if it was sacrificed, it could also obtain very generous resources.
Most importantly, there was 1 unit of Divinity.
1 unit was equivalent to 10 points, and he currently only had a total of 45 points of Divinity.
Divinity was also a very important material. It could turn into a golden light to protect him in critical situations. Rode had been saved twice by the golden light.
However, he didn't have the ability to obtain it now, so it would be a good choice to get a unit of Divinity.
But after thinking for a moment, Rode gave up on this idea.
His top priority now was to ignite a new star.
Otherwise, "Frigid Azure" had already reached its complete state, and he had no place to use the souls he obtained.
Thinking of this, Rode came to the front of the obelisk of souls and lightly touched it with his forehead.
The world flipped, and Rode once again entered the darkness of the soul.
The dark sky was shrouded in darkness.
On the endless dark wasteland, countless remnants of campfires extended to the unseen depths.
Empty, silent, oppressive, and the panic they brought surged up.
Rode calmed down and walked for a while, quickly finding the dark red campfire and the bright blue flame above it.
These were the only two flames that lit up the entire wasteland.
Now, Rode was about to ignite the third one.
But which one to choose?
Rode looked around, extinguished campfires were scattered across the wasteland, countless and indistinguishable except for their size.
Rode approached a campfire remnant and carefully looked at it. Only two lines of words appeared in his line of sight.
[Whirl of Stars]
[Ignition requires: 3 units of Source Soul, 50,000 Souls without Spirits, 100 units of Spirituality]
Was this the name of a star?
And the requirements were too high. Tuge's soul only had one unit of Source, which was obviously not enough.
Rode took a few steps and looked at another pile of ashes.
[Spiritual Boat]
[Ignition requires: 1 unit of Source Soul, 1,000 Souls without Spirits, 1 unit of Spirituality]
This one was acceptable.
But the name sounded like it was for traveling.
What Rode wanted was a star with powerful long-range attack capabilities.
His ideal combat method in the future was to throw a bunch of soul ashes, summon the phantom of the dean, and shoot from behind with a sniper rifle. Finally, use "Soul Strike" to finish off the enemy.
The only problem was that his attack power was too weak. The sealing bullets didn't always work, and he needed to weaken the enemy first and then use them to create openings. That was the way to deal with strong enemies.
Rode searched for a long time on the wasteland but couldn't find a suitable one.
Some had unknown functions, and some had requirements that were too high to ignite.
Just when he was about to temporarily give up and come back later to search slowly, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a pile of ashes.
[Justice Execution]
It was difficult to judge whether it had melee or long-range attack abilities from the name alone, but for some reason, Rode's gaze was firmly attracted by it. A strange feeling reminded him that this was the star.
[Ignition requires: 1 unit of Source Soul, 15,000 Souls without Spirits, 100 units of Spirituality]
The conditions were met!
This was it.
Rode made his choice in his heart, and with a thought, the soul emitting a red light flew up from the soul altar and entered the obelisk, appearing in Rode's hand.
Rode placed it into the pile of ashes.
The flame of the soul jumped, trying to infect the black residues and gray ashes around it, but it seemed to lack something.
Rode reached out his hand, and clusters of shallow black fluff appeared on his hand.
Those were Souls without Spirits, the constituent parts of the soul.
Turning his hand over, they fell into the soul flame like black snow.
The soul flame trembled slightly and began to spread downward. The flames gradually sank into the remnants of the campfire as the firelight became more and more clear.
When the black snow ended, semi-transparent jelly-like solidifications began to fall. They were 100 units of Spirituality.
Like a kind of accelerant, the fire suddenly surged. The black residues and gray ashes on the ground all ignited, and the complex impurities in the soul flame precipitated and combined with them, forming something like a base.
The firelight became clear and gradually changed color.
After a while, a cluster of bright yellow flames emitting a bright ribbon-like light appeared in front of Rode.
[Justice Execution]
[Status: Weak Burning]
[Stellar Energy: Spiritual Energy Trio]
[Infusion: Souls without Spirits]
[Addition: Humanity]
[Quantification: Not available]
[Potential: Dim Fire]
[Intensity: Ten]
[Description: Stars shine in the dark night, and I just want to protect someone as dazzling as you]
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
——
Looking at the flickering flame in front of him, a strong joy surged from the bottom of Rode's heart.
He finally had the third star.
Rode couldn't contain his excitement and unconsciously reached out his hand. The flame gently licked his fingers, like a coquettish little cat and a young baby.
This feeling was like having a third child.
