Chapter 179: Even Impurities have a soul!

Elliot sighed, picked him up from Lucy’s shoulder, and put him in his pocket.

“Will he be fine?” Lucy asked worriedly.

“Don’t worry,” Elliot said. “I won’t let him die.”

His words reassured her a lot.

In truth, Elliot had a way of saving it, and that was to feed it remnants of soul and cores as to nourish its nearly depleted and almost crumbling soul.

However, for that, he would’ve to go back to the Mystic Red Forest—a place parallel to this forest, he deduced. Of course, he couldn’t do that as he needed to first deal with the serpentine devils.

“What should we do now?” Oliver asked.

“Rest and eat!”

“That sounds like the perfect plan.”

“I’m exhausted!”

“Silence.” Elliot’s calm voice sounded in their ears, making them forget about whatever was going on in their heads. “Go and loot everything you can from this place and bring them to me.”

They had planned to rest, but Elliot had no intention of letting them freeload off of himself. Thus, he ordered the nine of them to do some work while he, himself, walked towards the biggest treehouse and entered it. The expression of his slaves wrinkled up, but Elliot didn’t give a damn about their crumpled expressions. Meanwhile, Oliver, Lucy, and Arthur willfully got to work. After all, they wanted to contribute at least something.

The nine of them entered one treehouse after another, picked up everything that entered their sight, and brought them to him.

“You guys can go and rest, now.”

After giving them a few packets of chips and other junk food, he sent them away. Only a few of them remembered to thank him before going away. They were Lucy, Tia, and the two magic knights, Oliver and Arthur.

Elliot shrugged, not feeling unpleased because of the damned attitude of his slaves. He didn’t need them to like him as he didn’t like them either. He was only going to use them before eventually discarding them, and that included Tia.

“Let’s see what we have got here!”

Elliot turned to the treasures on the floor. He was inside the grandest treehouse of the beast’s house. It was big enough for him, but there was no spot to walk free. After all, treasures filled this house! From spiritual herbs, equipment, spatial rings of the magicians that they had hunted to even copper treasure boxes, all of them were around him.

Oliver, Lucy, and the others didn’t know the value of these things as they didn’t know what they were, but Elliot had been digging for information ever since he came here, so he knew much about these items! Thus, he didn’t even felt the to use the power of his know-it-all godly eye to know what about most of them.

First off, Elliot started by opening the copper treasure chests.

[You’ve gained ten remnants of the soul]

[You’ve gained five soul cores]

[You’ve gained a low-level spirit matrix, Damage Negation]

[Spirit Matrix: Damage Negation]

[Level: Low-level item.]

[Effect: Decrease all physical and magical damage by 10%. Integrate it into a piece of equipment to amplify its magical defense and physical defense.]

Elliot sighed as he didn’t have armor. He stored the spirit matrix into his subspace, then he summoned his most loyal undead and fed it ten remnants of the soul.

[Kayn has consumed ten remnants of the soul.]

[Kayn has successfully used the energy present in them to nourish his unborn soul.]

[Congratulations! Kayn has a taken another step towards the creation of his soul.]

[Soul Formation Progress: 60.]

“That should be enough for now.” Elliot said, “Now, go back and be prepared to participate in a war the next time I summon you.”

He patted his head before reverse-summoning him back to the space in the Undead King’s requiem.

Then he turned to the sleeping monster.

“Hey, Hope, how do I feed him the soul cores?” Elliot asked in his mind.

[Champion, you just need to place them on his forehead, and he will subconsciously consume them.]

“Hmm, alright.”

Following Hope’s words, Elliot placed a soul core on the horrifying nightmare’s forehead. Immediately, the energy inside the core vanished, causing it to lose its blue color. Then, the core turned to dust that was about to scatter, but before it could, Elliot stored it in his subspace. This was no ordinary dust, but soul dust—a unique crafting material that no human, except for himself, had ever seen.

[You’ve fed a soul core to the horrifying nightmare.]

[The soul energy had nourished his soul significantly.]

[He will now wake up after 99 years!]

Significantly?

My ass!

From the looks of it, he would need to feed him 99 more soul cores to help him wake up.

Elliot cursed his bad luck and fed it the other nine soul cores.

[Congratulations! The time of his slumber has decreased to 90 years!]

Elliot ignored the prompt and turned towards the crates with spiritual fruit inside of them. They were open, meaning that someone had taken a fruit or two out of them. He picked up one of the fruits and looked at it with the intent of knowing everything about it.

[Nightmare’s Fruit of Strength.]

[Rank: Basic-Stage Spiritual Item ]

[Effect: Consume to increase your strength by one point.]

[Impurities: 10.]

[You must clean the Fruit from impurities before consuming it, or else you will witness a nightmare for ten minutes.]

As these spiritual fruits were of the lowest quality, they possessed a few impurities.

Elliot smirked after reading the description of the fruit.

“Whoever took these fruits is in for a nightmare.”

Except for the fruits of strength, there also were the fruits of agility and the fruits of stamina in the second and third crates. In total, there were around fifty such fruits.

“Let’s start.” Elliot used his God’s Qi to purify the fruit in one of his hands from all impurities. A unit God’s Qi went inside and eliminated a unit of impurities inside of the fruit.

“Gah!”

However, right at that very moment, a horrifying shriek sounded, and the remaining nine units of impurities inside of the fruit came out as a black figure with a vicious face.

[You’ve encountered Impurities’ partially corporal soul]

It was hovering above the ground and had no feet, and it immediately attacked him, lunging at him.

[You’ve been attacked by the Impurities’ partially corporal soul]

Although he was taken by surprise, Elliot still managed to reflectively throw a fist at its ugly mug.

His knuckles smashed on its mouth that apparently lacked everything else, and the force behind his attack was enough to blast it apart.

[You’ve killed the Impurities’ partially corporal soul]
