Magic Spirit

Equivalent exchange.

In fact, Demps had promised to pay Han Dong the debt of 10,000 Copper Coin in advance.

If this mysterious 'mother' is willing to offer a corresponding reward, Han Dong is also willing to accept it.

Immediately afterwards, 'Mother' turned her gaze to Mia, who was nestled in Han Dong's shoulder, looking frightened.

The sound resounded directly throughout the hall.

"A combination of the Curse Cult, the Spider God... a rather interesting one."

Some things in Insect Valley would indeed be a good choice for you.

However, Little Spider like you, raised in a greenhouse, can only survive by seeking shelter.

If you need my 'protection', you must offer me something of value... whether you are a friend of Demps or not.

Here, I only engage in equivalent exchanges.

It had been decided beforehand that [Insect Valley] was the only choice for Mia to carry out the despawning.

However, the only important item Mia carried was the demon sword, so it was impossible for her to trade it.

Just then, Han Dong took the initiative to suggest:

"Can I exchange my 'favor' of helping Demps for her 'protection'?"

"Can."

These words were spoken.

Mia was startled at first, then immediately threw herself into Han Dong's arms, tears welling up in her eyes.

It seems that Han Dong cares about and helps Mia.

In fact, Han Dong's instinct told him to avoid getting too involved with this 'mother' as much as possible... and instead use the 'rewards' he received from helping Demps on Mia.

Judging from the perspective of fundamental interests.

Investing in Mia is definitely more worthwhile than directly exchanging her for rewards.

"Come with me... First, we need to verify if you are truly effective."

The mother got up and, in a unique floating manner, arrived at a door at the back of the hall.

Behind the door was a long corridor with torches neatly arranged, and there were many branching paths along the way, eventually leading to a room filled with the smell of flesh.

As Han Dong followed along, he couldn't help but marvel at the complexity of the space inside the wooden house, which resembled a large maze.

Clang! Clang!

Before even leaving the passage, I could hear the sound of chains clanging and pulling violently.

"This is..."

In the vast and open arched area, Faceless life form with a fleshy surface and a 'human upper body' shape is bound by more than a dozen giant iron chains.

Its overall height is over thirty meters.

From a distance, its body surface resembles fleshy skin, but it is actually composed of countless fleshy tentacles.

Once you see it clearly, you'll instantly suffer from a deep level of Visual Pollution due to trypophobia...

"Mature Body Otherworldly being imprisoned here?"

The hall had more than a dozen doors, and behind each door were numerous branching passages. Could it be that hundreds of otherworldly demons were imprisoned here?

Han Dong, who had fought a direct battle with the Earl.

They immediately recognized from the aura that the giant life form bound by iron chains was of a level no weaker than that of Earl.

"Within five minutes, identify and mark the 73 weaknesses of this 'Manny's Body'..."

After saying that, a piece of white paper with the outline of a demonic creature drawn on it floated down in front of Han Dong.

At the same time, the restrictions on the Lesser Demon Eye and various sensory abilities were lifted at this moment.

Clearly, this mother could block the sensory abilities of others at any time by covering her own senses... It was this perverse and strange ability that made Han Dong feel very uncomfortable from the moment he stepped into the wooden house.

"OK."

The Demon Eyes are fully activated.

"The energy convergence points within the target's body should be the 'weak points'...and the number is exactly 73."

Just as Han Dong was about to put pen to paper to mark the weaknesses, he suddenly realized something.

They quickly moved closer, within ten meters, to re-examine this enormous creature with a 'human upper body'.

"No, this intersection point isn't a major weakness. If it can't be blocked simultaneously, it's pointless... We need to see deeper."

A kaleidoscope mark appeared in the magic eye.

[Pupil Imprint]

With his enhanced X-ray vision, Han Dong pierced through countless tightly packed fleshy tendrils and passed through the energy layer overflowing within the alien demon's body, finally glimpsing a very hidden core.

"Hmm... what is this!?"

Han Dong quickly picked up his pen and drew the outline of a baby in the lower center of the white paper.

The 'mother' was also surprised when she received Han Dong's answer.

"I can actually see the [infant body]."

"In that case, you can also help Demps peek into the core of that [Demon Spirit]... As long as you can help Demps break free of his seed, I will provide your friend with ample protection."

"Thanks."

When we returned to the center of the cabin.

A substance could be seen moving slightly in the mother's throat.

The hand covering the mouth flipped over, and three 'flesh beads' produced by the mother protruded from the mouth.

"This thing will ensure that you can stay in the Magic Crystal Canyon for three days without being affected by the Magic Element... I will wait for you to return in the same spot."

Demps would answer any questions he had along the way.

The [Spirit Spirit] may be roaming anywhere in the Magic Crystal Canyon, or hiding within the crystals themselves. You must find it as soon as possible.

After saying that, the Wooden Gate leading to the outside opened.

Han Dong and his group have arrived in a completely unknown canyon area, a thousand kilometers away from the Holy City.

Only large-scale Expeditionary Activity would allow the Knight Order to reach such remote areas... The only record of the Magic Crystal Canyon in the Holy City is a report from an expedition sixty years ago.

The wooden cabin is parked on a platform in the middle of the canyon.

Numerous crystal clusters grow among the canyon walls, varying in color and radiating brilliant light, with some crystal particles invisible to the naked eye floating in the air.

This is what is called ' Magic Element ', which will cause three effects once inhaled.

1. Magic Element mixes into the bloodstream, circulates to the brain, and absorbs and blocks the energy of the seed or Talent Tree. Inhaling large amounts can even damage the Talent Tree and render it irreparable.

2. When Magic Element enters the body, it will assimilate the physical body, leading to crystallization.

3. After inhaling the Magic Element, you will be "marked" and attract a large number of demonic life forms living in the Magic Crystal Canyon.

"Demps, what is [Spirit of the Demon] like?"

"Based on the 'magic crystal,' many kinds of evil and filth can be formed."

This includes Crystal Beast formed from the invasion of Magic Element, or some Magic Crystal Insect.

And a very small number of "Perfect Crystal Person" - pure magic crystals formed by mixing the consciousness of the dead.

However, when such a Perfect Crystal Person advances to the level of a demon, two different changes will occur.

The first type absorbs a large amount of magic crystals, forming a Crystal Giant that is extremely threatening and enormous in size.

The second type removes the crystals from the body's surface, transforming into a pure [Demon Spirit].

What I'm looking for is this extremely rare demon spirit that roams the Magic Crystal Canyon... Nothing is more suitable for my seed-breaking ritual than such a pure-source alien demon.

The mother has confirmed through the treasure that a new demon spirit has been born here.

"You'll need to use your special eyes to locate the target..."
